Super rare beast girl, run away! The emperor's uncle is coming!

Chapter 108 The Hard Bones in the Dental Industry

The proprietress covered her mouth with her hand and looked around. Only when she saw that no one around noticed the commotion did she let go of her hand with relief.

He made a silent gesture in front of her and said in a deliberately low voice:

"Don't dare discuss these things in private. Be careful, there are ears behind the walls. The capital is not peaceful these days. You, a little girl, should stay out of the public."

Just as the boss lady was about to say something, a new customer called out, "Boss lady, two bowls of vegetarian noodles, please."

"Hey, wait a minute."

The proprietress smiled at her, turned around and started to get busy.

Qu Jingyao frowned as she watched the people coming and going on the street and had no appetite for her noodles.

At this moment, she heard two men at the next table whispering:

"Look at the Imperial Guards patrolling back and forth several times a day. The weather in the capital is about to change."

"I heard that if King Li's old illness hadn't relapsed, those people wouldn't have dared to cause such a commotion, and the border town wouldn't have been massacred."

"Stop talking, be careful..."

When Qu Jingyao heard this, her brows furrowed a little.

She put down the copper coins, turned around and walked out of the noodle stall, following the direction indicated by the proprietress, heading towards the tooth shop.

It seems that the situation in Shangjing City is also very tense. This is what is called internal and external troubles!

It is the common people who suffer.

As Qu Jingyao walked on the street, she attracted many curious glances from people around her.

Looking at the fire fox lying on her shoulder, they started talking.

Qu Jingyao swaggered into the door of the dental clinic.

Seeing a guest coming, the servant hurried forward to greet him:

"Miss, please come in. If you need anything, I can help you introduce it."

Qu Jingyao looked around and was led by a servant to the front hall, where a maid came in carrying tea.

"I want to see if there is any suitable shop."

The servant asked her to wait for a moment while he went to call Mrs. Du, then bowed and walked out.

After a while, a middle-aged woman in a crimson brocade dress walked in slowly with a smile on her face. Her neat hair was tied up with a golden hairpin, and her deep eyes showed shrewdness.

"Is this girl planning to buy a shop? If you need anything, you can tell me. Our dental shop has everything you need. Even if you don't have it, I, Du the Toothbrush, can get it for you."

Qu Jingyao curled the corners of her lips through the veil, and a cold voice sounded:

"Then I'd like to ask Mrs. Du to help me see if there is a bigger shop."

After she finished speaking, Du Yapo smiled and started flipping through the booklet on the table.

Qu Jingyao picked up the teacup and took a sip, watching her search quietly.

After a moment, Grandma Du raised the corner of her lip and pointed to a shop in the booklet and said:

"Miss, there happens to be a shop on West Street, but it's built facing the lake and was originally a two-story teahouse.

I just don't know what kind of business you're going to make in the future. I have other options, but they're a bit small. Shops in the capital are very popular."

Qu Jingyao asked about the situation of the shop.

When Du Yapo heard her words, her eyes gleamed slightly, and she asked with a slight curl of her lips, "Miss, you are not from the capital, right?"

Qu Jingyao paused for a moment, then raised her eyelids, and placed her soft hands on her knees.

"Po Du has a good eye. I'm definitely not from the capital. What's the story behind this shop?"

Du Yapo smiled and shook her head, explaining that this shop was originally the dowry of an official's wife, but the family was confiscated and exiled a while ago, so this shop came into her hands.

Qu Jingyao nodded and said that it would be fine as long as there was no damage to the shop before.

"Don't worry about this. I, Du Yapo, do this in Shangjing City." She raised her thumb and boasted.

"I wonder how much silver this shop will cost?"

Grandma Du smiled and stretched out her hand: "Five thousand taels. This shop was renovated just last year. You came at the right time. You haven't been here long. Otherwise, it would have been robbed long ago."

Qu Jingyao narrowed her eyes and asked if she could go and take a look.

Du Yapo stared at the young girl in front of her, full of curiosity.

These eyes, as bright as stars, made her wonder about the face behind the veil.

"Of course, someone prepare the car!"

Just as Du Yapo was about to get up after she finished speaking, she heard a commotion outside.

"Come here, can't you see I have a distinguished guest? Who is so ignorant of the rules?"

"Boss, that tough guy in the backyard is causing trouble again."

The servant hurried in and said with an embarrassed look on his face.

Grandma Du gritted her teeth in frustration and shouted at them to bring the man in. She had to teach them a lesson this time.

Then he turned around and said to Qu Jingyao apologetically: "Miss, I'm sorry, please wait a moment, I have something to deal with."

As she spoke, she turned her head with a cold expression and walked straight out of the hall. Standing under the corridor, she coldly ordered the servant beside her to hold down the troublemaker.

"Hit him! Who does he think he is? Is he some rich young master?"

Qu Jingyao put down the teacup in her hand, stood up curiously and took two steps towards the door. She saw several servants in the yard escorting a young man and whipping him on the back.

The man's resolute face looked particularly handsome under the sunlight.

But there was a strong sense of unwillingness and hatred in those eyes, and the blood stains on the corners of his lips made him unable to help but "spit".

The whip cracked and hit the man's back again and again. He clenched his teeth and didn't even make a sound.

"Interesting!" Qu Jingyao looked at the man with a half-smile on her lips.

He also noticed Qu Jingyao in the front hall, and his eyes paused for a moment, but he was soon aroused by Du Yapo's curses and became furious again.

Suddenly, a little girl about her age stumbled out from the backyard.

"Don't hit my brother, we'll be obedient, obedient, puff..." The little girl spat out a mouthful of blood, fell to the ground and fainted.

Qu Jingyao could see that the girl seemed very weak.

What followed was the man's heart-wrenching roar.

"Little sister..."

Seeing this, the man struggled desperately. A hint of indifference flashed in Du Yapo's eyes. She raised her eyebrows and signaled the servant to let him go. She looked at him with contempt. She had no intention of beating him to death, but just wanted to teach him a lesson.

The man didn't care about the bloody whip marks on his back. Feeling waves of pain, he quickly crawled to his sister's side and picked her up.

"Doctor, my sister needs a doctor. I will agree to any conditions as long as you find a doctor for my sister."

Du Yapo sneered. When the brother and sister came, the girl was weak and dying.

"Are you kidding? Do you think this is a charity? How much money has your sister spent on me in the past half month? She's been half-dead the whole time. How many of my customers have you offended? Are you and your sister a curse to me?"

When Du Yapo mentioned these things, she became furious.

Qu Jingyao looked at the scene in the yard coldly.
