Chapter 133: T4’s revenge
She approached them with a small red bucket of whatever bait T4 had managed to procure for her.
"Muyang," she said when she approached them. "Why are you carrying her, I thought your plan was to catch the biggest fish in the lake. You wont catch anything if she is playing around with the rod."
"I can do both." Muyang replied arrogantly. "I saved you a spot." He indicated to the chair next to his.
"Mama, mama, fish." Mei-Mei clapped excitedly as she explained what she was doing with her father.
"Yes, Mei-Mei is the best fisher baby in the world." She encouraged the little girl. She was a hopeless case but she could not kill her precious daughter’s enthusiasm. She would always be her biggest cheerleader.
She sat in the chair and handed him the bait, "Use this." She said. "By the way, the crowd is larger than we anticipated, what is going on? "
She was really confused, fishing was an activity for old men usually but very many young people were participating in the activity enthusiastically. Half of the campers were currently at the overly crowded lake side and she couldn’t fathom why.
"It’s those old men." He looked in the direction of his grandfather and his group hopelessly "They have put up a reward of four million for the person who catches the biggest fish today. Now everyone is suddenly interested in fishing."
Now she understood why even women and children were fishing as if they were looking for gold, there was a cash prize on the line. Some people had directly stepped into the water and they were trying to catch fish with their bare hands. Others were fishing with sharp sticks like it was done in the ancient days.
Even a few celebrities were participating and their fans were excitedly cheering them on.
"Daddy, the booth is out of fishing rods." A young boy behind Chi Lian told his father. His nasal voice was an obvious indicator that he was sad and probably about to cry.
Chi Lian turned around and looked at the sad five or four year old little boy. "Here you can have mine." She gave him the rod Muyang had saved for her. She had no intention to participate in the activity after all.
"Thank you." He said with a brilliant smile.
"You are welcome." She rubbed his hair and pinched his cheek.
Muyang turned around and glared at the father who quickly took his son away and looked for another spot to fish from.
"Did you really have to scare them away like that?" she asked.
"I told you to stay away from little boys." He reminded her. His cold eyes were very unhappy.
"Sorry." She leaned her head against his shoulder. "I will remember next time. I just didn’t want him to cry, I am a mother after all." She explained.
"Hmm." He responded.
He opened the bucket of fish bait and everyone around suddenly looked in their direction unhappily. Chi Lian wanted to curse and beat up T4. That stupid fox had not told her that the bait smelled like a dead rotten rat. It must be revenge; he was taking revenge for her teasing and threatening him earlier.
"Mwa-ha-ha." T4 laughed villainously in her mind.
"You cursed fox, I will get back at you for this." She threatened.
"But I haven’t done anything host, you asked for fish bait and I got you what you asked for." he claimed innocently.
"Chi-Chi, where did you get this thing from?" Muyang asked with his nose wrinkled. He was holding the bucket away from his body as if it was a grenade that was about to explode.
"I made it myself." She laughed nervously. She was struggling to pretend that she did not find the smell offensive otherwise she would give herself away if it appeared as if she was not aware that it stunk so badly.
"From what, a corpse?" Muyang asked.
"Of course not, it smells terrible but it’s very effective, precious and nutritious. Just pour some in the water and the fish will come fighting for it." She defended. Nothing that came from the system was a bad thing, she may not know what it was made up of but she knew it would be effective.
"Absolutely not." Muyang tried to close the bucket.
"Mama stinky." Mei-Mei complained. Her little nose was wrinkled upwards as she complained.
What was wrong with this father and daughter? Their bucket was empty and they wanted to reject such a good thing that she paid for with her hard earned money. No way.
She took the bucket from Muyang and poured a bit of the bait in the water while ignoring the accusing eyes staring at her for polluting the water with her stinking shit or whatever it was since people did not know what to call it.
She crossed her fingers and hoped that the effect of the bait would work as soon as possible.
"Mama stinky." Mei-Mei complained again.
"Yeah, I heard you the first time." She rolled her eyes at her daughter. She wondered if the girl would be germ phobic in future like her father.
"I heard that someone stole diamonds from the dressing area." Muyang said.
She was surprised. How did he know so soon?
"I hired most of the bodyguards, I told them to inform me the moment a problem crops up. Have you found the thief?"
"No." she shook her head and looked around before coming closer to whisper, "It’s not a thief, it’s a killer. I saved the life of the guard he attempted to murder but I don’t think the danger has been alleviated. I heard the Minister saying something about a shifter in the eagles nest."
Muyang’s eyes moved towards the grand emperor when she said that.
Bingo! She thought. Now she knew the identity of the Eagle. The eagle was probably the grand emperor and the queen dowager. The nest must be the area where the royals are. Just as she suspected, the assassin was probably here for the royals.
The waters in the empire really run deep; this place was not as peaceful as it appeared to be when she first came.
She needed to grow her strength as quickly as possible in order to protect her family.
"Muyang, "she called, "Is the assassin here for the royals?" she asked.
"Perhaps," he said thoughtfully, "It could just be an assumption; he could be here for someone else. There are very many wealthy heirs here. Anybody could be a target, including you." He said.
