Chapter 261: He Actually Has Two Fates
Tang Li looked at the small figure again and narrowed her eyes before continuing to eat her duck palm.
After the two of them were done eating, they continued shopping.
As it was not a market day, there weren’t many local snacks. Tang Li was a little disappointed. “Looks like I won’t be able to eat the candy today.”
Qi Yihan tilted his head and looked at her. “If you want to eat, we can ask the sugar seller where he lives and pay a visit to his place.”
Small vendors wouldn’t miss their chance to make money.
Hearing that, Tang Li could not help but smile. “What if I just wanna lick the candy?”
“Well then, we’ll ask him to make a candy figure and then you can just lick it and throw it away.”
“Forget it.” Tang Li looked around and found a store. She pulled him there.
There was candy in the store. Tang Li asked for some sunflower seeds, peanuts, nuts, and so on. She also asked for a small bag of candy. After Qi Yihan paid the bill, she carried it with her and the two of them continued walking forward.
After walking for a while, Qi Yihan said to Tang Li, “That child is following us again.”
There were not many people on the streets this time, so Qi Yihan stopped after saying that.
Tang Li stopped and turned to look at the child who was following them.
The boy probably didn’t expect to be found out and turned to run in fear.
Qi Yihan frowned. “Does he think it’s easy to steal from us?”
Tang Li looked in the direction where the boy ran and suggested, “Why don’t we follow him?”
“Yeah.�
The two of them followed.
The boy dodged left and right like a loach. In the end, the two of them found him in a large ditch at the edge of the town.
Tang Li looked at the boy, who was hiding behind the ditch and was still in a daze. She crossed her arms and asked coldly, “If you don’t show yourself, we’ll come and get you, and then we’ll send you to the police station.”
After nearly half a minute, the boy finally walked out from behind the ditch.
Looking at the boy who was covered in dirt and dust, Tang Li asked, “Tell me, are you trying to steal our money again?”
The boy lowered his head and did not speak. However, tears fell from his eyes.
“Wipe your tears away.” Qi Yihan was a little displeased. Scared, the boy quickly wiped his tears away.
He said in an undertone, “My grandfather is dead. I want to burn some paper money for him to use in another place.”
Qi Yihan did not understand what he said and looked at Tang Li.
Tang Li translated it for him. At the same time, she looked at the boy’s fate and found out that he would eventually become a hooligan and be beaten to death.
At this moment, Qi Yihan suddenly said, “If I help you bury your grandfather in glory, will you stop stealing?”
The boy turned to look at Qi Yihan with a spark in his eyes.
Tang Li watched in surprise as the boy’s fate changed.
She tugged at Qi Yihan’s sleeve and said, “Yihan, he actually has two fates.”
Qi Yihan understood what she meant and nodded, waiting for the boy to reply.
The boy nodded quickly and knelt down to kowtow to the two of them.
“Thank you, benefactor! Thank you, benefactor!”
After kowtowing, he looked at Qi Yihan and said, “As long as you can help me bury my grandfather, my life will be yours.”
Tang Li translated for Qi Yihan.
Qi Yihan looked at the boy and agreed.
Then, the two of them took the boy to the worship supplies store in town.
The worship supplies store here provided one-stop-service for funerals.
Qi Yihan chose the best service for the boy’s grandfather and paid. After the store owner guaranteed that everything would be settled, he said a few words to the boy alone and the two of them returned to where Mr. Guo and the others were staying.
After Qi Yihan returned, he told Mr. Guo about the boy and said, “If the boy comes to find me, send him to the Qi family’s bodyguard base.”
Mr. Guo quickly agreed. Then, he asked, “Mr. Qi, Mrs. Qi, the higher-ups said they will reward you handsomely and wanted me to ask you what you want.”
The world did not know that it was Tang Li and Qi Yihan who helped destroy the evil organization, but the higher-ups knew perfectly.
Qi Yihan did not want anything and looked at Tang Li. “What do you want?”
Tang Li’s eyes darted around before she asked, “Will the higher-ups give me whatever I want?”
Mr. Guo was clearly not in the place to answer that question.
Qi Yihan smiled. “As long as it’s not too much, the higher-ups will probably agree.”
Tang Li narrowed her eyes and nodded. She crossed her arms and said, “Alright, I want some antiques.”
The antiques in the national treasury must have everything she wanted. When the time came, she could just take a few top-grade items with spiritual aura, so she wouldn’t need to go everywhere to find things with spiritual aura to set up formations on the island.
Mr. Guo looked at Qi Yihan. “This…”
Qi Yihan patted her shoulder. “THey probably can’t give you the ones that are on display and numbered.”
Tang Li nodded. “Then, I’ll go and choose the ones that are not on display and numbered.”
Qi Yihan looked at Mr. Guo. “Then I’ll have to trouble Mr. Guo to pass on this message to the higher-ups.”
Mr. Guo said with mixed feelings, “Mr. Qi, I think you should call the higher-ups personally to talk about this.”
With his negotiation skills, as long as Qi Yihan asked, he could get as many antiques as he wanted.
“I’m on break now, so I don’t plan on contacting the outside world.”
Before two of them went on this trip, they both turned off their phones and were unconcerned about whatever happened in the world.
Hearing that, Mr. Guo seemed to have remembered something as he said, “Miss Tang, I heard that a very important family head is looking for you in Country Y.”
He only found out about this two days ago when a friend at the embassy casually mentioned it to him. Now that he remembered, he told Tang Li about it.
When Tang Li heard that, she said nonchalantly, “My husband and I are now on vacation, so we won’t talk about work.”
Tang Li wasn’t surprised to know what happened to Augustine. Previously, everyone mocked her, saying she was a thief, so Tang Li planned to let the matter blow up this month. When she returned, she would start dealing with these people one by one.
Now, all she wanted was to have a good trip with her man.
Hearing that, Mr. Guo stopped talking about it.
After dinner, Tang Li went to take a look at Yuan Yuan.
Yuan Yuan woke up in the afternoon. Although she was only a few years old, she looked very lively.
When she saw Tang Li walk in, Yuan Yuan looked at her curiously with her doe-like eyes.
Tang Li handed her a candy she bought that afternoon. “Yuan Yuan, do you want some candy?”
