"Shui Yunjian's attitude is so sincere, and he has even agreed to compensate you, but you guys still want to fight? Isn't this just a joke?"

"Yes, they have already agreed to take responsibility, why are you still making a fuss? Why don't you go and thank them?"

When the young men heard these words, they all looked embarrassed. The leader immediately grabbed the aggressive man and bowed his head to apologize to Shen Mengyao and Chef Li.

"I'm sorry, it's our own problem, but we caused you so much trouble."

Shen Mengyao smiled and shook her head: "It's okay, we all understand how you feel. As long as everyone can treat it rationally, there is no problem that cannot be solved. Once things are clarified, everyone can go their separate ways."

After she finished speaking, she gave all the silver to Xu Jiuyuan in front of everyone: "Is this enough?"

"Enough, enough." Xu Jiuyuan nodded.

The crowd finally dispersed gradually, and the surroundings returned to peace. Xiao Qi had been counting the bills, holding the account book and muttering, "Second Master, even if you don't hold them responsible, why are you still paying for the medical expenses? How many guests were driven away because of their actions just now? I counted, several tables have not paid the bills, and they have lost a lot of money."

"The most important thing in doing business is to have a good reputation. You don't have to be afraid of spending some money, but you can't let anyone catch you." Shen Mengyao looked thoughtful.

She also felt that what happened today was really strange. The appearance of these people was too strange, so she said, "I suspect someone is behind them."

Xiao Qi covered her mouth in surprise: "If this is really the case, Second Young Master, you shouldn't let them go so easily. You have to find out who is behind this from their mouths."

"There is no evidence now, and they are just showing food poisoning." Shen Mengyao sighed and said seriously, "We can't get any information from them. If we forcefully take action, our reputation will decline."

Xiao Qi understood that he was in a dilemma and he sighed.

"I don't know who is trying to make things difficult for us. This business is getting harder and harder. We have to work hard to attract customers and be on guard against those villains who might attack us from behind."

Shen Mengyao was also upset, especially after so many things happened, her heart was always in turmoil: "Xiao Qi, tell the guys living in the store to keep an eye on them at all times and be alert, so that nothing goes wrong again."

Xiao Qi nodded solemnly: "How about this, from today on I will also live in the store."

Shen Mengyao looked worried: "How dangerous it is for a girl like you!"

"Shh, don't tell anyone about this. With my current identity, I can help you with some things. If it gets exposed, I guess not many people will believe me." Xiao Qi looked around vigilantly.

Shen Mengyao held her hand and sighed helplessly: "Xiao Qi, no one will look down on you just because you are a woman."

Xiao Qi pulled the corner of his mouth and said nothing more: "It's settled anyway."

Shen Mengyao shook her head helplessly.

They have been very careful these days. Fortunately, Shuiyunjian's business has not been greatly affected. Everything has returned to calm, only the weather has become colder. This autumn, the wind blows the fallen leaves, making it particularly cool.

Xiao Qi originally thought that nothing had happened and that what happened that day was just an accident. She was just overthinking it. She had felt a little uncomfortable living in the store these days. Most of the people living in the store were the guys.

The rough man didn't even boil water at night, he just washed himself with cold water. It seemed a bit unsociable for her to boil the water by herself, so she went to the well to fetch some cold water, planning to go to bed after washing herself.

Just as she was carrying the basin over, she suddenly saw a dark shadow stealthily jumping down from the wall.

She immediately hid behind the wall, holding her breath, quietly watching the movements of the dark shadow. Under the night sky, only a little moonlight shone on the man's body. She could see clearly that he had a black scarf covering his face, and it was obvious that he had no good intentions.

She picked up the hoe standing by the wall and followed him quietly. She saw the man go straight into the kitchen in the backyard, open the flour jar, and sprinkle some white powder into it. Then he put the medicine bottle back to his chest and looked around.

Xiao Qi really wanted to go over and beat the man to death with a stick, but after thinking about it, he realized that he was small and weak, and even if the guards called for help, they might not be able to take him down.

It is better not to act rashly at this time. Just confirm what he has done and be prepared tomorrow.

Thinking of this, she quietly hid under the window. After the man confirmed that there was no one around, he walked out quickly, climbed over the courtyard wall, and left Shuiyunjian.

Shen Mengyao had received the news early in the morning. She looked at the surface of the jar and said in a deep voice, "Catch a few mice to confirm whether it is really poisoned."

A few guys quickly caught a few big black rats and put them in cages, where they squeaking loudly. Xiao Qi poured some flour into the cage. When the rats smelled the aroma of the flour, they lay on the cage and started to eat.

After a stick of incense had passed, the mouse fell in the cage, bleeding from all seven orifices and died.

Xiao Qi was extremely surprised: "Someone really poisoned the place. Who did it? Was it a ***? It's me and Luo Chuan who have implicated you."

"Hush, don't say anything without basis." Shen Mengyao frowned and reminded: "Trouble comes from the mouth, she is a ***."

Xiao Qi immediately covered her mouth, and then said carefully: "But I just doubt her, Second Young Master, you can't just let this matter go. She uses such a sinister trick. If she fails in one blow, she will strike again."

Shen Mengyao knew this truth, but she had no evidence. What was the identity of the ***?

Even if we catch this person and reveal her identity, it may not be effective.

I don’t know how many people are willing to die for her. Even if she gives testimony here, the other party may change their statement in court.

She thought for a moment and said in a deep voice, "This matter is not so easy to solve. First, get rid of those poisonous things, and then find a few strong people to stake out at night. Remove all the noodles from the shelves tomorrow and say that the noodle chef has gone back. They will be available in a few days."

After hearing this, Xiao Qi nodded and said, "Okay, I'll make the arrangements. Three people will be on duty for one night, so we can take turns."

Shen Mengyao thought that they would not take action in the next few days, so she let them sleep well and rest well for the next two days.

After waiting for a few days, the other party lost his patience as expected. On a stormy night, it was dark and quiet, and Shuiyunjian had closed early. Just before midnight, a dark shadow appeared stealthily on the wall.
