A: Looks like you might like the soft sleeper then. B: Yes, fine. Let me see how much money I have in my wallet. A: …sir?
B: Where’s my wallet? Someone has stolen my wallet!
A: Perhaps it’s in your other pocket.
B: You’re right. It is. Let me have a look. I have 419.6RMB. is that enough? A: You’re just 4 Mao short for the hard sleeper, but I’ll let it go. Anything for love! B: Thanks, ma’am. You’re a lifesaver!
