Chapter 356 I would rather believe it
But if she didn't go to find Li Xiaoxiao, she couldn't swallow this anger. She was in a dilemma for a moment, wanting to go but being afraid to go.
Si Shuiqing raised his daughter by himself, so how could he not know what Qiao Yueru was thinking?
"Your face is ruined by using her concealer now. Even if we sue the government, we have evidence. But if after a while, a scar forms on your face, what if that bitch denies it?"
Yes, Li Xiaoxiao is insidious and cunning, full of tricks. Now that the wound on her face has not healed yet, go confront her and see what she can do.
We must uncover her hypocritical mask and let everyone know how cruel and ruthless she is, to the point of poisoning customers' things.
After Qiao Yueru and Si Shuiqing figured it out, they immediately took several servants with them and went to settle the score with Li Xiaoxiao in a threatening manner.
Before anyone entered, the Qiao family servants shouted at the door: "Black-hearted merchants, poisoned the concealer and ruined our young lady's face. Give us an explanation, or we will sue you in the government."
This street was already busy, and after hearing their shouting, many passers-by stopped to watch the fun.
Qiao Yueru followed Si Shuiqing closely, with her face almost touching Si Shuiqing's back, but despite this, the crowd still stretched their necks to look in her direction.
"Whose lady is this? Her face is covered with gauze. She must be disfigured."
"I've always heard that this rouge shop sells something called concealer, which is only affordable for young ladies from official families. Fortunately, that thing is too expensive. Poverty saved my face."
"It's not just this rouge shop. It's all because of the concealer that it's so popular. I didn't expect something like this would happen so soon."
"No way? Even if this thing doesn't work well, it can't ruin a person's face."
The crowd watching were talking at the same time and pointing at Li Xiaoxiao's shop.
Li Xiaoxiao was greeting customers in the store and heard the noise outside at the first moment. When she arrived at the door, it was already full of people standing outside and making a lot of noise.
When Qiao Yueru saw Li Xiaoxiao coming out, she didn't bother to hide and ran out angrily.
"Li Xiaoxiao, you bitch, you actually poisoned the concealer I used. You really have a vicious heart. Today I will report you to the government and let the prefect convict you."
At this time, Qiao Yueru's face was covered tightly with gauze, leaving only her facial features exposed. It was hard to see what was going on, but from her angry face, it could be seen that it should be true.
Li Xiaoxiao frowned slightly. Based on her understanding of Qiao Yueru, even if she held a grudge against her, she couldn't gamble with her face. The risk was too great.
Not to mention leaving scars, even a slight injury would be extremely serious for a young girl. So what exactly happened?
"Ms. Qiao, I'm running a business. You keep saying that you were disfigured because of my concealer. Where's your evidence?" Li Xiaoxiao was not panicked. Everything required evidence. She knew very well whether the concealer she made herself was poisonous or not.
"Here is the evidence. Today a famous doctor from Beijing came to see me. He said that this is poisonous, and the poison I was poisoned with matches this." Qiao Yueru was holding a small porcelain bottle in her hand, which was the concealer she bought from Li Xiaoxiao.
"A bottle is not enough to explain anything, and it can't prove that I poisoned your concealer." Li Xiaoxiao sneered. It's been a few days since she bought it, and now she says it's poisoned. Has she not used it in the past few days?
"I knew you were a sharp-tongued person. You're still trying to argue with the facts right in front of you. If it wasn't you, how could I have poisoned myself?" Qiao Yueru screamed in anger. Anyway, everyone saw it, so she didn't care. Whoever wanted to watch could watch.
"It's hard to say. I've sold hundreds of bottles since I opened this shop, and no one has ever been poisoned. It's just you, so what you said is not credible." Li Xiaoxiao didn't care who poisoned whom. Anyway, she was upright and innocent.
"That's because you hold a grudge against me and deliberately target me. You're afraid that my beauty will overshadow you, so you have evil intentions in your heart." Qiao Yueru said seriously.
The onlookers didn't really recognize Qiao Yueru, but judging from her mung bean eyes and hooked nose, they couldn't tell how she was prettier than Li Xiaoxiao.
Phew, Li Xiaoxiao was completely amused by Qiao Yueru's narcissism. Although Qiao Yueru's brain was not very good, she had a very rich imagination.
Well, that’s not the case. Maybe everyone has different aesthetic tastes. Qiao Yueru is one of those people who likes to be different.
"I really don't have that idea. Appearance is just a shell. Beauty or ugliness doesn't matter to me. I have never meant to compete with you in beauty, so your idea is invalid."
While Li Xiaoxiao was speaking, her mind was working rapidly, thinking about the possibilities of the matter and how to deal with it. Judging from Qiao Yueru's attitude, she would definitely not give up.
"Even though you are eloquent, the thing in my hand is poisonous and my face is ruined. You must give me an explanation." Qiao Yueru said in a firm tone, with a momentum of not giving up until she achieved her goal.
"Li Xiaoxiao, you have bullied my daughter many times before. As an elder, I don't want to say anything unpleasant, but you went too far this time. That's her face. How can you let her go out and see people in the future?"
Si Shuiqing finally couldn't hold it in anymore and scolded Li Xiaoxiao as an elder. The implication of his words was that it was Li Xiaoxiao who did it.
“I didn’t expect that the owner of this rouge shop, who looks pretty, is so vicious that she actually poisons the things that customers buy.
"Luckily I don't have any money, otherwise I would have bought it here too."
"Oh no! I suddenly remembered that my sister-in-law seemed to have bought only one bottle. No, I have to tell her quickly not to use it anymore. It will be troublesome if her face is ruined."
"I've seen many young ladies from official families in the capital frequently come in and out of here. I'm afraid this shop is going to get into big trouble."
The onlookers listened to what Qiao Yueru and her daughter said and completely sided with them, as if they had seen Li Xiaoxiao put poison into the concealer with their own eyes.
Several people who had been buying things in the shop before, simultaneously put down their things and left one after another. For something like this, it is better to believe it than not.
It would be a good thing if there is no poison in it. If it is really poisonous, the consequences would be unimaginable. There are countless rouge shops in the capital, and it would be the same if you bought it from other shops.
Li Xiaoxiao took a deep breath. It was not easy to argue with them about this matter today. It seemed that she could only go to the prefectural government and let the prefect judge who was right and who was wrong.
"I'll say it again, I didn't do it. It's useless to blame me. How could I, a newly opened shop, blatantly poison people?"
