Chapter 16 An Inappropriate Tool for Repaying Kindness



"Zhang Tao, give me one-third of your salary right now," Mo Qian said to Zhang Tao, a hint of displeasure on her face.

"No!"

“I’ve already given it for five whole years, so it’s about time.”

"You should have saved up quite a bit by now, don't go too far," Zhang Tao said with a serious expression.

"Stop talking nonsense and hand over the money. Stop wasting my time." Mo Qian seemed too lazy to argue with Zhang Tao.

"Besides, what business is it of yours how much I've saved?"

"That money is for raising your own son and daughter, why shouldn't you give it to them!"

“Mo Qian, my expenses are quite high, and I really can’t afford to give you this money,” Zhang Tao said resolutely.

"I don't care how much you spend. I just want the money I'm entitled to. As for the rest, you can do whatever you want with it. I don't care."

"We're going home for dinner soon, so hurry up and pay me. Be quick and stop dawdling," Mo Qian said impatiently.

"Starting this month, this money is cut off!" Zhang Tao said resolutely, his face extremely serious.

"no!"

"Looks like they won't shed a tear until they see the coffin!" Mo Qian's expression turned somewhat displeased after hearing Zhang Tao's words.

They then stepped forward, restrained Zhang Tao, and searched his body for money.

"Mo Qian, you actually managed to trap me?!"

"Let me go!"

When Zhang Tao couldn't break free from Mo Qian's hand, he looked quite surprised, as if he hadn't expected that a grown man like him couldn't break free from a woman!

At the same time, they were also very surprised by Mo Qian's strength!

However, despite his surprise, Zhang Tao's face showed a hint of anxiety when he saw the wages that Mo Qian had taken from him.

"Mo Qian, give me back my money!"

"Here you go, one-third of it!"

Zhang Tao shouted.

"Too late, now I want half of yours!" Mo Qian's face flashed with disdain after hearing Zhang Tao's words.

He then divided his salary in two, stuffing one half into her pocket, which was actually sent into his spatial dimension.

He then tucked the other side back into Zhang Tao's clothes.

"Mo Qian, don't go too far!"

"I'll give you a third, don't take so much!" Zhang Tao's face showed great anxiety and annoyance after seeing Mo Qian's series of actions.

However, because his body was controlled, he could only rage helplessly.

"Stop baboons, it's too late."

“If you had handed it over honestly before, I wouldn’t have bothered with you.”

"It's a pity. Who told you to be so blind? You can't blame anyone else. Blame yourself." Mo Qian said after releasing Zhang Tao's hand.

"Damn it! Give it back to me right now!" As soon as Zhang Tao regained his freedom, he rushed towards Mo Qian, intending to snatch back the money that Mo Qian had taken earlier.

"Bang!" Mo Qian saw Zhang Tao rushing up and kicked him without saying a word.

"Ugh, Mo Qian!" Zhang Tao was not in a good mood when he landed, and only came to his senses when the pain hit him.

After regaining his senses, he was quite astonished that Mo Qian had managed to kick him down.

I thought she was already strong enough, but I never expected her to be this strong.

"Stop yelling, it hurts my ears," Mo Qian said, picking at her ears with a displeased expression.

"How...how can you be so strong?" Zhang Tao asked, his face full of surprise.

"Is it that big? You're just too weak." Mo Qian said with disdain.

"Don't even think about taking it back. Once the money is in my hands, there's no going back."

At this moment, Zhang Tao, who was anxious to get the money back, stopped thinking about why Mo Qian was so strong.

Instead, he tried his best to control his expression and spoke to Mo Qian in a gentle manner.

"Mo Qian, I misunderstood before. If we continue with the previous arrangement, I will give you one-third of the monthly salary."

"Just give me back the extra one. There are still a lot of people at home waiting to eat."

"This has nothing to do with me. You were the one who insisted on not handing it over before, but now it's too late."

"I'll only charge you half this month. If you're still this ungrateful next month, don't blame me for being ruthless."

"I admire your rebellious spirit. Let's continue next month," Mo Qian said with a smile.

After saying that, Mo Qian left in a cheerful mood.

As for Zhang Tao, who stayed behind, he looked at the half of his salary that he had pulled out of his clothes, and his face showed some annoyance.

Looking up at Mo Qian's departing figure, his face darkened.

However, since things had come to this point, there was nothing Zhang Tao could do but accept his fate.

Then, he got up from the ground and slowly went home. It must have hurt quite a bit.

"Brother Zhang, what happened to you? Did you get robbed?" Li Qiuju asked anxiously when she saw Zhang Tao's condition.

After all, she knew that today was Zhang Tao's payday.

Thinking of this, Li Qiuju's face became even more anxious.

"Brother Zhang, did they steal your salary?"

"We'll talk about it later. Help me sit down first." Zhang Tao didn't answer Li Qiuju's question as soon as he entered the room. Instead, he sat down on the bed covered with bedding.

"Brother Zhang, what exactly happened? Tell me quickly, or I'll get worried."

After helping Zhang Tao sit down, Li Qiuju looked at him with great anxiety.

"Here's your salary." Zhang Tao said, handing the salary to Li Qiuju.

When Li Qiuju saw her salary, she felt a little relieved and quickly accepted it.

Then, they started counting.

However, after counting, Li Qiuju realized that the count was incorrect, so she counted again. But when the count still didn't match, she immediately turned to Zhang Tao and hurriedly asked him.

"Brother Zhang, the amount of money is wrong."

"What happened?!"

“Mo Qian took it,” Zhang Tao said slowly, leaning against the blankets on the bed.

"They took one-third, but it still doesn't add up!!"

“She took half,” Zhang Tao added later.

"What happened? How could she take so much!"

"That's absolutely outrageous!"

When Li Qiuju heard that Mo Qian had taken half of it, her face turned very ugly and she was very indignant.

"Don't ask anymore. It's only this month. It'll be normal next month." Zhang Tao's face darkened after hearing Li Qiuju's words, and he seemed unwilling to say anything more.

The main reason was that he, a strong and healthy man, had failed to subdue a woman, which left him feeling somewhat frustrated and embarrassed.

Naturally, he didn't want others to know about this.

Therefore, when Li Qiuju asked, he didn't want to say much, also because he felt ashamed.

“But this money isn’t enough to cover our expenses,” Li Qiuju said with a grim expression.

Two-thirds of my salary was barely enough to cover my expenses, but now only half is left, which is definitely not enough.

"Let's think of something later." Zhang Tao knew that the money might not be enough, but it was impossible to get money from Mo Qian.

We have no choice but to accept our fate.
