"Hey! Are you thinking of going back on your word? Let me tell you, you promised me before, you can't go back on your word! After all, you said yourself that you never lie to me." Faced with Xia Tian's rare tenderness, Qiu Mengyun was not moved at all. Instead, she stared at Xia Tian with a vigilant look on her face and asked.
Xia Tian smiled and said, "How could that be? I always keep my word. I just wanted to tell you that if you just want to eat lobster, you don't have to go through all the hard work of carrying the building. Even if you rest at home today, I can still make sure you have lobster tonight."
"Hmph! I don't care whether you have any solution or not. Anyway, you just promised me that you would help me carry the building. You can't go back on your word now." Qiu Mengyun said firmly.
"Okay, since you want to experience the hardships of life, I'll accompany you through it as you wish." Xia Tian didn't insist on taking her away. He thought Qiu Mengyun was only interested in carrying bags out of curiosity and for fun. After she carried a few bags, she'd experience the hardship and would naturally give up.
"Then don't waste time, let's set off quickly. The more bags we can carry, the more money we can earn." Seeing that Xia Tian agreed, Qiu Mengyun immediately took his hand and trotted forward.
Downstairs of an old residential building.
"You two are not kidding, are you? Do you really want to carry the building with us?" A young man who often does the work of carrying buildings questioned Xia Tian and Qiu Mengyun, who looked delicate and tender.
Qiu Mengyun nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes! That's right, we two really want to be the building carriers with you. Please take one of us with you. Don't worry, we will definitely not cause you any trouble."
The young man looked at Qiu Mengyun and then at Xia Tian, and said with some embarrassment, "Uh! To be honest, it's not that I don't want you to do it, nor am I afraid that you'll steal my work. The main thing is that I really don't believe you can do this job like you are now."
"Your boyfriend is better. Although he doesn't look very strong, he should be able to carry a few times without any problem. But you are so thin and delicate, you really don't look like you can do this job. How about this, you just watch from the side, and I will help your boyfriend carry a few times."
He said this without any intention of looking down on or discriminating against Qiu Mengyun. It was just out of kindness, simply because he didn't want her, a little girl, to do such hard work.
Qiu Mengyun did not appreciate this goodwill.
She said coquettishly, "Humph! Why can he do it, but I can't? Nowadays, men and women are equal, and women can also do half a day. Are you discriminating against me because I am a girl and looking down on me by saying this?"
"No, no, I really didn't mean that. You misunderstood." Hearing Qiu Mengyun say that he looked down on her and discriminated against her, the boy quickly waved his hands to defend himself.
"Okay, you don't have to explain to her. She can obviously tell that you didn't mean it that way. She just said it on purpose, hoping you wouldn't stop stopping her from carrying the building."
Seeing the boy's anxious explanation, Xia Tian smiled and patted his shoulder, indicating that he was fine.
"Dude, I really mean well. It must be difficult for you to find such a beautiful girlfriend. I'm just worried that she'll tire herself out and run away."
"I know you mean well, but my girlfriend is quite stubborn. Once she's made up her mind, she won't back down until she hits a wall. I tried to persuade her all the way here, but it was no use. How about this, let the two of us carry the load first! Let her feel how hard this job is, and then she'll understand our good intentions. Once she gets tired, she'll stop clamoring to carry the building herself."
Xia Tian told the other party his thoughts in a negotiating tone.
"Of course you can, but you have to follow her! Although this job is not dangerous, she is a girl, and I am worried that she will run out of energy and fall halfway through. We have to carry it to the sixth floor, and it will be very dangerous if she falls halfway." After listening to Xia Tian's suggestion, the boy did not object anymore, but seriously told Xia Tian to take good care of Qiu Mengyun's safety.
Xia Tian nodded: "Don't worry, my own girlfriend will of course take good care of her."
"Oh yeah! We're starting to make money. What should we do now? Should we just move these things upstairs?"
Seeing that Xia Tian had already discussed it with the other party, Qiu Mengyun immediately couldn't wait to start work.
The boy walked over to where the materials were piled, half-knelt down, grabbed a bag of materials and put it on his shoulder. Then he said to Xia Tian, "You can just do what I did, put the things on your shoulders, and then carry them to the sixth floor. If you get tired along the way, just stand by the stairs and rest for a while. Don't take the things down, otherwise it will be very troublesome to put them back up."
"I understand!" Xia Tian nodded, indicating that he understood.
After the boys left, Qiu Mengyun was the first to come to the pile of materials. She half-crouched like the boys, then reached behind her back to grab a bag of materials and put it on her shoulders.
But she was too weak and had completely underestimated the weight of the bag of materials. Even though she held the bag with both hands and shook it for a long time, the bag still remained firmly in place, not moving forward at all.
"Huh? What's going on? I saw that guy just pulled it casually, and it reached his shoulder!"
Qiu Mengyun muttered in confusion.
Xia Tian walked forward, reached out to help her push, and then put the bag of materials on her back.
"You are too weak. With the strength you are using with your hands, you probably can't even open the door. You should know that this small bag of materials weighs 60 kilograms. Of course you can't lift it like this." After putting the things on Qiu Mengyun's shoulders, Xia Tian explained with a smile.
