Chapter 83 Mysterious Box

Xiao Shicui shook her head and said: "The things are not good enough. I heard that people who have used them have problems on their faces within 20 days. They are red and itchy. They all ran to her store to make a fuss. If you want to explain, finally The store couldn't stand it anymore, and lost too much money, so it closed."

It turned out to be like this, it is estimated that the boss just imitated the surface of "Peach Blossom Studio", but did not imitate the essence inside.

Seeing that Meng Liangchen was so calm, Xiao Shicui couldn't help being a little curious.

"Miss, are you unhappy?"

Meng Liangchen nodded and said, "Of course I'm happy."

Originally, she thought that the store would have to last for a long time, and she also guessed the owner behind the store together with the voice in her ear.

Some time ago, she even thought about whether she should come up with some way to bring back some customers, but she didn't expect that the boss behind him couldn't hold on so quickly, so she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

Meng Liangjing stepped out of the carriage with a gloomy and cold body, and walked quickly towards the teahouse. When she came to the room on the second floor where she met the masked man for the first time, she wanted to go in.

There was a man standing at the door. Seeing that Meng Liangjing was about to barge in without saying a word, his face turned cold, so he stretched out his hand to stop him.

"Miss Meng, the master has a guest, so it's inconvenient to see you for the time being."

Meng Liangjing frowned, looked at him coldly, and said: "Your master said that I can come to him at any time!"

The man still had no intention of stepping aside, and said: "Miss Meng, please come back. After the master finishes seeing the guests, he will send someone to pick up Miss Meng."

At this time, Meng Liangjing couldn't listen to anything, and said coldly: "Get out of the way!"

Seeing her attitude like this, the man's eyes flashed with murderous intent. This woman doesn't know how she got involved with her master. She always looks confident, and she doesn't know what she is going crazy about!
Just as he clenched the weapon in his hand and wanted to use force, a man's voice suddenly came from inside the door.

"what's up?"

The face of the man guarding the door changed, and before he could answer, Meng Liangjing took advantage of the loophole and pushed the door open and broke in.

The man came to his senses and quickly followed in. Meng Liangjing had already rushed in front of the screen in the room.

Meng Liangjing's speed was so fast that the man didn't have time to stop him, his face changed drastically.

Fortunately, there was a screen in the middle of the room that blocked the figures of the people inside, and Meng Liangjing was not directly facing the people inside.

The man hurried forward to block Meng Liangjing's way, and said coldly: "Miss Meng, you can't go any further!"

There was a hint of murderous intent in his voice, the people inside must not let this woman see her true colors, if she doesn't know how to break in, don't blame him for being rude!

While talking, the knife in the man's hand to stop Meng Liangjing was out of its sheath, and a cold light flashed. Meng Liangjing was also startled for a moment, and then calmed down instantly.

At this time, a voice came out again, which was familiar to Meng Liangjing.

"Miss Meng?"

Meng Liang took a deep breath, stood where he was and didn't move forward.

"it's me!"

The masked man's voice came out again: "When did Miss Meng become so anxious?"

Meng Liangjing bit his lip, his voice had returned to calm, but there was still a bit of unwillingness in it.

"My 'Pear Blossom Restaurant' can't go on anymore."

The people inside seemed a little surprised by this, and exchanged glances with the man sitting opposite.

"Oh, what a pity!"

The man's voice came out, and it seemed that there was really only a bit of regret.

Meng Liangjing's breathing became somewhat uncomfortable, and he asked, "I'm not reconciled! How can Meng Liangchen last for so long, while my shop was closed in just one month!"

The masked man was playing chess with the middle-aged man on the opposite side. Hearing this, he couldn't help but stop what he was doing, and even laughed softly for some reason.

His laugh made Meng Liangjing even more annoyed: "What are you laughing at!"

There was a bit of anger in her voice, and the masked man found a place to put down the chess pieces.

"Miss Meng doesn't have to worry about it, maybe Boss Meng's store opened earlier and took the lead."

Hearing what he said, Meng Liangjing seemed to suddenly realize something, and finally found what he couldn't figure out.

"I think so too."

Listening to her tone, the two people sitting opposite each other looked at each other, and they seemed to see a hint of sarcasm in each other's eyes.

I really don't want to regret it...
The masked man's voice came again not long after: "Then why is Miss Meng here today?"

Meng Liangjing bit his lower lip, and said with dark eyes: "I'm not willing to lose like this!"

As soon as her words came out, the masked man inside replied with a hint of embarrassment: "But Miss Meng has already lost everything, and the money I gave to Miss Meng has never been returned. I really can't take it out any more." The extra money is used to support Miss Meng."

A look of bewilderment flashed across Meng Liangjing's eyes, if this man refused to help her pay any more, what would she do?Just throw in the towel?And recently, people kept going to the door of "Pear Blossom Studio" to make a noise for compensation, and she no longer had any extra money to pay them.

"You, don't forget, I am your savior!"

In desperation, Meng Liangjing blurted out these words, and the room fell into dead silence for a while.

For a moment, Meng Liangchen also seemed to feel a little regret because of her impulsiveness. After all, she didn't know who the other party was, but no matter how she looked at it, the other party was someone she couldn't afford to mess with. A little bit of the taste of carrying grace.

If the other party is not happy, here is her...
Meng Liangjing's eyes couldn't help but glance at the man standing in front of him, and he unsheathed more blades at some point.

The guard with the knife took a step forward, and Meng Liangjing couldn't help but backed away, his heart beating "thumping", and his face turned pale.

Meng Liangjing swallowed quietly, and could not help but feel a retreat in his heart, his eyes began to wander.

After an unknown amount of time, a low-pitched laughter came from inside, but it wasn't the masked man's voice.

"Miss Meng really has an unyielding character. I like it! Since she is the nephew's savior, I naturally want to help. In order to express my gratitude, I am willing to pay back this favor on behalf of my nephew."

Meng Liangjing looked inside, but couldn't see the faces of the people inside clearly, then the middle-aged man's voice came again.

"Whatever Ms. Meng needs, you can just tell the old man, if the old man can help, I will give it all."

Meng Liangjing's heart couldn't help but move, but his voice became much quieter than when he first came here.

"I need a larger place on the commercial street, and 3 taels of silver."

 Anyone have a guess what's inside the box?Who is this middle-aged man?
