Chapter 371 Could It Be Him?

Chapter 371 Could It Be Him?

It took only two days for Jiang Feng to investigate everything clearly. Jiang Yue was quite satisfied, but she also received news that someone had caused trouble for Liu Fengxia, making it impossible for her to continue working here. She had no choice but to sell the shop and return home.

Jian Pingping smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I didn't tell my uncle about opening a shop here. Besides, as the prefect, my uncle wouldn't do such a thing."

If her uncle really loved her that much, he would not have agreed to let her and her siblings live outside, nor would he have allowed Zheng Yuang and Xu Mengqing to have any contact with each other.

Mei'er kept talking about Sister Qing. She didn't believe that her uncle didn't know about it, but her uncle never stopped her. She guessed that her uncle must be dissatisfied with her marriage with Zheng Yuang.

Jiang Yue was puzzled: "Who did that?"

Luoxialou had just sent people to cause trouble for them, and then it could no longer operate. She wouldn't believe it if it wasn't because of them.

When Jiang Yue got the news, he asked the steward Jiang, but he denied it. The steward Jiang had been with Lord Zheng these days. Although he heard about this from Jiang Li, he did not take any action.

Wang Dahu has been recuperating at home for some time and has to worry about getting married, so it shouldn't be him who did it.

But Jian Pingping said it had nothing to do with her, so who did it?

Jiang Yue was guessing there, and suddenly a name popped up in Jian Pingping's mind. She hesitated for a moment. Could it be him who did it?

"What? Who do you think did it?" Jiang Yue was the first to notice the abnormality on Jian Pingping's face.

"I'm wondering if it was Doctor Murong who did it?" Jian Pingping hesitated and expressed his guess.

"Doctor Murong?" Jiang Yue had never thought of this name. "How could he have done this? We don't have any friendship with Doctor Murong."

Jian Pingping didn't understand either, but she only knew a few people like these since she came to the capital. Apart from Doctor Murong, she really couldn't think of who would do such a thing.

Although Jiang Yue thought it was impossible, she knew that Dr. Murong was fully capable of doing so.

Steward Jiang said that Doctor Murong is not an ordinary doctor. If you meet him, be polite to him, because he is very vindictive.

"Why did you guess it was Doctor Murong?" Jiang Yue thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out, so she simply asked Jian Pingping.

"Just now, Doctor Murong came in and seemed to want to say something, but he didn't. He just took a hand cream and left."

"Hand cream?" Jiang Yue asked, "Didn't you give him some facial cream the other day?"

"He always said the box of facial cream was too small. Then I realized he used it to moisturize his hands, so I gave him a box of hand cream. But he disliked the hand cream because it was not as good as the facial cream." Jian Pingping felt that Doctor Murong's personality was too weird.

"He only bought a hand cream?" Jiang Yue couldn't believe it.

"I didn't buy it, I gave it to him." Jian Pingping was grateful to Doctor Murong for helping her that day and had made up her mind that whenever Doctor Murong came to the store to buy something, it would be charged to her account.

Jiang Yue looked at Jian Pingping with an indescribable look: "If you give it to him, he will take it."

"Yeah." Jian Pingping nodded.

Jiang Yue found it hard to imagine that the man her father described as difficult to communicate with, stingy and vindictive would come to a small shop like theirs just to ask for a hand cream.

How unbelievable this is.

"If Doctor Murong comes to buy something in the future, put it on my account." Jian Pingping thought it would be better to say it in advance to avoid any misunderstandings later.

Although Jiang Yue felt that Dr. Murong might not like their facial cream, what if?

"But, these have nothing to do with the trouble that Doctor Murong is causing for Luoxia Tower?" Jiang Yue wanted to know where Jian Pingping's guess came from.

Jian Pingping couldn't explain it clearly, but she just had a hunch that this seemed to be done by Doctor Murong.

Jiang Yue originally wanted to tell Jian Pingping about Manager Jiang's evaluation of Doctor Murong, but she was worried that Doctor Murong would be unhappy if he knew about it, so she swallowed the words in the end. However, she reminded Jian Pingping to be more polite to Doctor Murong in the future.

"He's a doctor, I will definitely treat him with utmost respect." Jian Pingping nodded seriously.

Ever since her parents passed away, she has experienced the fickleness of the world and is no longer the carefree eldest daughter of the Jian family.

Seeing that she had misunderstood, Jiang Yue did not explain and she mentioned another purpose.

"I heard Luoxia Tower is for sale. How about we go buy it?"

"Luoxia Tower is too close to us, and we have rented our shop for a year, so it is not cost-effective to buy it now." Jian Pingping thought for a moment and shook his head.

Although she hated what Liu Fengxia had done, buying Luoxia Tower had no practical significance other than venting her anger.

Jiang Yue also considered this, and what she actually wanted to buy was something else.

"I heard that Liu Fengxia wants to sell the formula of Luoxia Cream. Let's buy it."

"Sell the shop? She can just sell the shop and open a new one in another location. Why would she sell the prescription?" Jian Pingping felt that there must be something wrong.

Jiang Yue didn't care why. She thought Luoxia Cream was pretty good. She bought some to study and maybe she could add some more varieties to their store.

"My mother has been asking me to learn housekeeping recently. I only have time tomorrow morning. I'll find someone to talk to her tomorrow and see how much she wants so I can buy the recipe first."

Jian Pingping couldn't guess what Liu Fengxia was doing, but she also agreed to buy the Luoxia cream. As long as they had the recipe, they could research new varieties.

The two agreed on the same goal and agreed that Jiang Yue would find someone to test Liu Fengxia.

After all, Liu Fengxia had caused trouble for them before. If she knew that they were the ones who wanted to buy it, it would probably not be an easy matter.

But the next day, just after the hour of Si, Jiang Yue came with a rather unhappy look on her face.

Jian Pingping led her into the house and asked, "Why, Liu Fengxia doesn't want to sell it?"

"Liu Fengxia said it was sold yesterday. Who was it that was so quick to buy my Luoxia Cream?"

Jiang Yue originally just wanted to give it a try, but now someone has bought the Luoxia Cream in advance. She is a little worried that this person's purpose is the same as hers, wanting to research new products, and whether this will affect the business of their shop.

Jian Pingping was also surprised. Although Luoxia Cream was good, it was not yet to the point where everyone was scrambling for it. Who was it that was one step faster and bought it in advance?

The two men were wondering if someone wanted to open a shop using Luoxia Cream, and a clerk was peeking outside.

"Masters, Doctor Murong is here, looking for Master Jian."

Jian Pingping was a little surprised. Why did he come again? Is there no one sick in the city now? Otherwise, shouldn't the doctor be seeing patients at this time?
