Shen Qiqi frowned, knowing without even looking that the haunting Qian Diba had returned.

His fat and big-eared face had a gangster-like air, like a piece of dog-skin plaster that once stuck to you couldn't be shaken off.

"Oh, business is good! Looks like you've made a lot of money?" Qian Dipi's cunning eyes swept over Shen Qiqi's stall, as if he was calculating how much money he could squeeze out of it.

He put his hands on his hips and swaggered in front of Shen Qiqi. He looked so arrogant that he wanted to carve the words "I am a gangster" on his forehead.

"Why, you want to collect protection money again?" Shen Qiqi sneered and met Qian Dipi's gaze without fear.

She just couldn't believe it. In this day and age, is there really someone who dares to bully others so blatantly?

"Protection money? That sounds so ugly. We call it maintaining market order!" Qian Dipi curled his lips, looking as if it was a matter of course.

"Look at your stall, it's in the wrong location and it's affecting other merchants' business." He lied with his eyes open without blushing or getting nervous. He is truly a talented person.

"My position is clearly based on regulations!" Shen Qiqi was furious. This guy was simply lying with his eyes open. His face was so thick that it could be used as a city wall.

"Stop confusing right and wrong here!" She clenched her fists, wishing she could punch him in the fat face.

"Hey, you little girl are quite fierce! I said you are in the wrong position and it is wrong!" Qian Dipi shouted arrogantly, and his saliva sprayed on Shen Qiqi's face.

"Move out now, or don't blame me for being rude!" He threatened viciously, looking ferocious, as if he wanted to eat Shen Qiqi alive.

"You..." Shen Qiqi was so angry that she was shaking all over. She knew that trying to reason with such an unreasonable person was like talking to a cow.

But she will never compromise easily, she wants to protect the fruits of her labor.

"Young man, what you said is not right!" An old but powerful voice came, like a ray of justice, dispelling the dark clouds.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and found that it was Uncle Chen, the old stall owner at the market.

Uncle Chen walked slowly to the crowd with the help of a cane. His weather-beaten face showed a dignified and upright look.

"The little girl's stall has always been here. There's no problem with the location. Stop making trouble here!" He accused Qian Dipi bluntly.

"Old man Chen, mind your own business!" Qian Dipi's expression changed, and there was a hint of fear in his tone.

Although he was arrogant, he did not dare to easily offend the old stall owners who had been in the market for many years.

"I just can't stand you bullying me!" Uncle Chen refused to back down. He turned to look at the stall owners around him and shouted, "Everyone, tell me, is this little girl's stall affecting anyone?"

"No!" Someone in the crowd responded loudly, and more and more voices gathered together to form a powerful force.

Qian Dipi looked at the contemptuous eyes around him, his face turned pale. He knew that he would not get any benefits today.

He glared at Shen Qiqi fiercely and said harshly, "You're lucky! We'll see!" Then he left in disgrace.

Shen Qiqi looked at Qian Dipi's fleeing back and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

She knew that this was only temporary and that Qian the gangster would never give up.

At this moment, she heard a familiar voice behind her, "Qiqi, are you okay?" She turned around and saw it was Lu Qing. Just as she was about to say she was fine, she saw Lu Qing frowning, looking in a certain direction, and said, "He's actually..."

Sun Tongxing's jealous face was as red as a ripe persimmon.

His eyes rolled and he was thinking of something weird again.

He squeezed to the front of the crowd and shouted in a sarcastic voice, "Hey, boss lady, your handicrafts look pretty good, but I don't know how good the quality is."

As soon as he said this, the originally noisy crowd suddenly became quiet.

Everyone looked at each other, feeling somewhat confused.

After all, no one wants to buy inferior products.

"What do you mean by that?" Shen Qiqi frowned and looked at Sun Tongxing coldly.

This person is really haunting!

Sun Tongxing smiled, revealing two big yellow teeth. That smile looked vulgar no matter how you looked at it.

"I'm just kindly reminding everyone that although this thing looks beautiful, it might be made of scraps and not sturdy!" He deliberately raised his voice so that everyone around him could hear.

"That's right, I look at this hairpin, it seems a bit rough, is it a defective product?" Someone in the crowd whispered.

Sun Tongxing achieved his goal, and a smug smile appeared on his face, like a fox that had stolen a chicken.

He just wants to make Shen Qiqi's business unsustainable!

"Stop talking nonsense here!" Shen Qiqi was angry. This man was so hateful!

She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

She would not be defeated by such a villain!

"Whether I'm talking nonsense or not, everyone can see for themselves!" Sun Tongxing pointed at a hairpin on Shen Qiqi's stall and deliberately found fault with it, "Look at the joint here, it's so rough, it will break if you touch it, right?" He looked at Shen Qiqi provocatively, waiting to see her make a fool of herself.

The corners of Shen Qiqi's mouth rose slightly, revealing a confident smile.

She had long expected that someone would come to cause trouble.

She took her time and took out a small box from under the stall, which contained various tools and materials for making handicrafts.
