Chapter 231: Here Comes Trouble
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The Sweet Dew Fruit Store went viral!
Even though Qin Xi had expected this outcome, she was still shocked by the morning’s sales.
Xia Tangxin said excitedly that there were groups of people queuing up at the entrance of the fruit shop all day. As long as the door was opened, all the fruits would be looted in less than half an hour.
Even so, more than half of the people could not get it.
It could be said that in just three days, the Sweet Dew Fruit Store had become famous at the speed of a rocket. It resounded throughout Luoping City and occupied the headlines of the Luoping Daily.
Of course, what came with the rapid increase in sales was trouble.
After Qin Xi received the call, she brought Lone Wolf, Saber, and Blood Stealer to Luoping City and handed everything in Shangwan Village to Han Shi.
At Sweet Dew Fruit Store.
Seeing Qin Xi, Xia Tangxin’s eyes lit up. “Xi, you’re finally here!”
Seeing that there were dark circles under her eyes and she looked tired, Qin Xi asked, “You look tired. Why don’t you rest well?”
“Don’t mention it. Let’s talk inside!” Xia Tangxin said gloomily. She greeted Lone Wolf and the other two before walking upstairs with Qin Xi.
Seeing the worried look on her face, Qin Xi asked curiously, “What exactly happened? Who are those people?”
Logically speaking, with Xia Tangxin’s father’s status, Xia Tangxin shouldn’t have encountered too much trouble in Luoping City. How could the store be forced to the point of closing down?
When the two of them arrived at the office, Xia Tangxin sighed and said worriedly, “Xi, we’re in big trouble.”
Qin Xi did not speak and waited for her to finish.
“Yesterday, Master Qi’s men came and wanted to acquire our store. When I said no, he sent people to cause trouble here.”
Qin Xi frowned and asked suspiciously, “Master Qi? Who is that?”
“Master Qi is not to be trifled with. He has two department stores. He saw the future of our fruit store and wants to cooperate with us.”
Xia Tangxin sighed worriedly and said, “Actually, he has a lot of connections and resources, so it won’t hurt to work together with him. However, he’s sinister and cunning, and his methods are extreme and ruthless. I don’t want to have anything to do with him, so I rejected him tactfully.”
“I thought he wouldn’t go overboard on account of my father. I didn’t expect that he would get a group of people to come to the store and pretend to be customers. After that, they deliberately quarreled with the other customers and caused chaos. Wave after wave, the customers are now too scared to come.”
“When my father found out, he specially called Master Qi, but he didn’t pick up at all. It gave me a headache.”
Xia Tangxin said dejectedly, “My father asked me to try my best not to provoke him. He said that Master Qi’s ident.i.ty is very special. Not only does he have a lot of connections, but he also has a mysterious background. Moreover, he’s narrow-minded and very difficult to deal with. As long as he likes something, he will try all he can to get it.”
“Therefore, as long as this matter is not resolved, the Sweet Dew Fruit Store might really have to stop operating. Sigh, I’m really angry. Xi, what should we do?”
Qin Xi’s eyes were slightly cold. Seeing that Xia Tangxin was still listless and dejected, she said with a smile, “Alright, don’t think too much. Go back and rest well. Leave this matter to me. Just focus on business tomorrow.”
Xia Tangxin was confused. “What do you plan to do?”
“You don’t have to worry about that. I’ll make the arrangements.” Qin Xi looked at the time and stood up. “It’s getting late. Let’s go. Remember, the store will be open for business as usual. Leave the rest to me.”
Seeing how confident she was, Xia Tangxin nodded. “Alright.”
