"Right now, all the employees at the entire Taipusi are working hard, and you two shameless bastards still have time to eat here?"
Faced with the questioning from the fortune teller's superior, Qingque felt slightly dissatisfied, but said nothing.
She had been slacking off at the company for so many years and had never encountered a leader like this before... Most leaders only asked her to finish her tasks for the day, but this was the first time she had encountered someone who directly used moral blackmail.
Lin Mo only recognized the fortune teller when he turned around.
Han Luo, a mid-level diviner in the Taibu Si (a government agency), leads more than ten lower-level diviners in the field of civil divination.
His divination skills were undoubtedly very strong, but he always liked to disregard his subordinates' feelings when the tasks in his own group were completed, and would specially come to Fu Taibu to take on more work and share it with his subordinates.
This was done to win the favor of Fu Taibu.
They are the kind of people who are willing to give up a lot for career success and fame.
Lin Mo glanced at Qing Que behind him, who looked somewhat aggrieved, and felt a little uncomfortable. After all, he had brought her to eat here, and she had even paid for it. Yet, they had run into this person, and things had turned out like this. It was really a downer.
He rubbed his forehead, sighed, and muttered under his breath, "What is all this?"
Then, Lin Mo smiled, looked up, and called out to Han Luo, who was about to leave.
"Team Leader Han, you can't say that!"
Upon hearing this, Han Luo, who was packing up food, was slightly taken aback. Then she turned around, stared at Lin Mo who had spoken, and felt a little dissatisfied.
How dare you contradict your leader?
Even if you two aren't under my jurisdiction, you don't have to be so arrogant, do you? I have to teach you a lesson to maintain my authority, right?
"You two have absolutely no sense of teamwork, and you still have the nerve to talk back? Don't you want your wages?"
Han Luo once again slapped a baseless accusation on them.
Lin Mo smiled shamelessly and said, "Team Leader Han is joking. The reason we didn't work overtime with our colleagues is because we finished all our overtime work during regular working hours."
"In order not to affect the work efficiency of other employees, it is reasonable for Ms. Qingque and I to leave work on time. It is not because we are shameless."
Han Luo frowned. This was a veiled insult implying their lack of ability...
Qingque behind him swallowed hard. She really didn't expect that Lin Mo, who was always shameless, would actually talk back to the leader in front of him this time. He was courting death!
Don't you want your salary anymore? You should know that the leaders within the Bureau of Taxation are closely connected; cutting an employee's salary would be a piece of cake...
Oh, no, his salary had already been deducted by Fu Taibu long ago.
Even so, you can't mess with your boss like that; it will cause a lot of trouble.
Qingque felt a little guilty. She vaguely felt that Lin Mo seemed to have gone against the leader for her sake. If it were according to Lin Mo's previous personality, he would probably have just stretched and laughed it off.
"Hmph, after finishing your own work, can't you share the burden with the other employees? You have no sense of responsibility at all!"
Han Luo felt that he had been humiliated by this little fortune teller today, and he was very uncomfortable.
Seeing the other party's attitude, Lin Mo felt somewhat helpless. He shrugged and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
"Help other employees share the workload? Oh dear, Team Leader Han~ Do you have so little confidence in your own employees that you need me and Miss Qingque, low-level fortune tellers who spend all their time in the library, to share the work? If Fu Taibu finds out, what will he think of your and your team's competence?"
"You!" Han Luo's face darkened, and he couldn't utter a word for a long time.
Pfft... Qingque couldn't help but burst out laughing, then realized her lapse and quickly covered her mouth...
"Hehe, you guys continue, continue..." Qingque said with an embarrassed smile.
Faced with Lin Mo's tactic of feigning retreat, Han Luo snorted coldly, uttered a harsh remark, and then slunk away.
"Take care, Team Leader Han!"
Lin Mo shouted shamelessly, which annoyed Han Luo greatly. He secretly resolved to find an opportunity to teach them a lesson.
Indeed, people's happiness is always built on the suffering of others.
Lin Mo felt refreshed and looked at Qing Que beside him, saying, "Let's go, I'll take you back."
Qingque felt quite pleased to see her boss, who had been morally blackmailing her, being rebuked by Lin Mo. Then, she checked the time and said, "Okay."
The two walked along the streets of Changletian, with Qingque behind them stretching lazily and yawning from time to time.
"Hey, Lin Mo, what should we do if that leader comes looking for trouble?"
Lin Mo smiled and said, "Don't worry, don't worry, we'll deal with whatever comes our way. It won't stop us from fishing."
Upon hearing this, Qingque couldn't help but retort, "You'd be asking for trouble."
Are you going to play cards again tomorrow?
"Of course, I can't let my month's salary go to waste!"
"Then what should we do about work tomorrow?" Lin Mo asked.
Qingque smiled and said, "Hehe, Lin Mo, I've always maintained a non-proactive, non-refusal, and non-responsible attitude towards work! So, I'll have to trouble you tomorrow."
"Oh, what a coincidence! I also have three principles when it comes to work: Can I not do it? Can I do it later? Can I give it to someone else?"
"Little Bluebird, are you still trying to dump the work on me?"
Lin Mo lazily put his hands behind his head.
Qingque pouted, "I paid a whole month's salary to complete this mission!"
"To complete Fu Taibu's mission and keep your salary, I've sacrificed my reputation, haven't I?"
"Do you know how long I had to beg and plead with them to borrow so many jade tokens from the resource repository?"
"Besides, do you know how much energy that divination array consumed for me? I think I've been very merciful by not asking you for compensation for emotional distress."
Lin Mo remained unfazed and teased him.
Faced with such a shameless Lin Mo, Qing Que could only admit defeat.
After sending Qingque home, Lin Mo returned to his rented room alone.
After transferring the rent to the landlord, he retrieved the jade talisman from today's transaction, connected it to Luofu's network, transmitted the information to his mobile phone via the network, and finally created a document to send to his superior, Fu Xuan.
He also warmly greeted Fu Taibu.
Lin Mo: [Documents related to formations from the year xxxx to xxxx in the Star Calendar]
Lin Mo: Good evening, Master Fu~ Have you eaten, Master Fu?
Not long after, Fu Xuan replied to the message.
Taibu Si-Fu Xuan: I didn't expect you to be so efficient. You even made it into a document. I remember that the scriptures in the library were not uploaded to the Luofu network, right? How did you do it?
Lin Mo: Guess?
