The guests stared at Gu Qiqi and trembled. This woman was not to be trifled with.

Could it be that she was unhappy after beating people up just now and wanted to find a few more to satisfy herself?

However, Gu Qiqi ignored the guests and walked straight to the singer.

Wearing Gu Qiqi’s coat, the little singer was facing the owner of the tavern. “This is the reward I deserve for my labor. Why didn’t you give it to me? I’ve worked here for an entire semester! No matter if it’s windy or rainy, or if I’m sick or uncomfortable, I’ve never been late or absent from work for a day. According to the agreement, you should give me a thousand panjia…”

The currency of the Tongan kingdom, one panjia, was equivalent to three dollars in imperial banknotes.

A thousand panjia meant three thousand dollars.

To be honest, the price was really quite low.

In the Empire, Imperial Song, the most expensive entertainment venue, gave more than that for a songstress to sing for five minutes. Even the resident songstress of a small bar on the street made tens of thousands of dollars by singing for a semester.

However, even at such a low labor price, the owner of the bistro was unwilling to pay. He sneered and waved his hand. “Go away! You still have the cheek to ask for payment? Do you know how much trouble you’ve caused me in the few months you’ve been working here? Almost every night, guests complain that you don’t allow them to touch you! Do you still think you’re an arrogant young lady?”

The little singer held back her red face as tears welled up in her eyelashes. “I… I’m here to sing, not to sell… my body…”

The shopkeeper sneered. “Tsk! Aren’t women who come out to work just selling? What’s so precious about your body?”

The little singer’s face turned even redder, and her body was trembling.

Clearly she wasn’t very good at dealing with such unreasonable insults from the shopkeepers.

“I… I… I just want my payment! That’s important to me! I have something very important…” She held her breath for a long moment and then sobbed.

“Bah! What does your important business have to do with me? Don’t you know who the customers you offended today are? Whether you can still live tomorrow is a problem. Why do you need money? Besides, my little tavern was originally running well, but because of you, an insensible smelly woman, I was implicated. Perhaps those men will even vent their anger on my tavern. I lost a lot! You still have the cheek to ask me for money? I even want you to compensate me for my losses!” The shopkeeper was cunning and spoke one sentence after another.

The little singer was no match for him.

Towards the end, it was as if everything had become Little Singer’s fault.

Instead, it became money she owed the shop owner!

“You… you’re unreasonable…” The little singer was so angry that she spoke even more incoherently.

“Unreasonable? Hehe!” The shopkeeper pinched her chin teasingly. “Naive woman, the strong prey on the weak in this world. Only the strong have the right to be unreasonable. What’s the point of reasoning with a weakling like you? Besides, my reasoning just now was very clear. Don’t you understand human language?”

“You… you’re being unreasonable!” The singer bit her lip.

He had been going back on his word and bullied her.

The shopkeeper squeezed her chin. Pain shot through her.

Immediately after, he taught her a lesson with a sinister smile. “As a woman who is out to work, you should know your ident.i.ty. If a male guest touches you, it’s because he thinks highly of you and gives you face. You should just let him touch you without saying a word! Who asked you to resist? Who asked you to cry for help?”
