After transmigrating into the body of a widow, I became the richest man in the capital.

Chapter 508 Nosy

Thinking about it, Su Xiaoxiao also found this matter a bit strange.

Why did I run into Qian Musheng here?

Shouldn't he be fighting tooth and nail with his father, Old Master Qian, over the inheritance right now?
Why am I here? But pretending not to know him doesn't seem like a good idea.

In short, this thought lingered in Su Xiaoxiao's mind for a long time, and she didn't know whether to express it or suppress it.

Qian Musheng had actually noticed the hesitation in Su Xiaoxiao's eyes, so he didn't take the initiative to go over and greet her, indicating that they still knew each other.

This situation seems quite surprising; for the time being, no one seems inclined to break this deadlock.

Everyone stared at Su Xiaoxiao and Qian Musheng in front of them. Their relationship seemed mysterious, and everyone felt that the two must know each other.

Qian Musheng has always been at odds with Prince Gong, and now he absolutely cannot let him know about his relationship with Su Xiaoxiao.

He also knew that Prince Gong was a scoundrel who wished for his own good every day. In any case, if he were to be recognized, he would definitely pin all the blame on Su Xiaoxiao.

In this case, Qian Musheng felt that it was his fault that he had caused trouble for Su Xiaoxiao.

In short, it's probably best for the two of them to remain as if they're complete strangers for now.

Thinking of this, Qian Musheng deliberately walked up to Su Xiaoxiao and asked, "Who is this person?"

Prince Gong had no intention of paying attention to Qian Musheng in the first place, and seeing that Qian Musheng seemed very interested in Su Xiaoxiao made him even angrier.

"Qian Musheng, why aren't you at home tending to your business? What are you doing here?"

Qian Musheng chuckled, "Prince Gong, you're something else. Why don't you spend time with your beauties at the villa? What's the point of coming here and bothering people?"

Prince Gong became agitated upon hearing this, "When have I ever been disliked? Are you mistaken?"

Su Xiaoxiao could tell from the first glance that these two were going to clash right from the start and were definitely going to have a fight.

Besides, that's not the focus today; it's how she's going to punish that heartless boss, who's just too greedy.

Moreover, he was extremely ruthless; for some reason, I felt that this person was there to cause trouble for Su Xiaoxiao.

In short, we should take it one step at a time and see how things go. Su Xiaoxiao remained silent.

She nudged Song Ziyang, who was standing next to her. She was meeting this young man for the first time, and he seemed quite upright.

Song Ziyang coughed lightly. "Qian Musheng, what are you doing here? Long time no see!"

Unexpectedly, these two people actually knew each other, leaving Su Xiaoxiao completely stunned.

It seems like the world is a circle. You don't even know that these two people know each other, and they even seem to have a familiar way of speaking.

"I should be asking you that! What are you doing here instead of being a proper pharmaceutical merchant? Are you planning to break into the business?"

"What? I just came here to collect medicinal herbs and ran into Miss Su. Miss Su has some good stuff here, so I was just about to come and take it. I didn't expect to be a step too late and run into this mess. Do you think I can ignore this?"

Qian Musheng was taken aback and asked, "What business is it?"

Song Ziyang recounted the whole story to Qian Musheng, and only then did Qian Musheng understand what had happened.

He was furious. "What kind of nonsense is this? The boss is being way too arrogant!" Qian Musheng thought to himself, "You can bully anyone, but you can't bully my Su Xiaoxiao."

It seems that Su Xiaoxiao still wants to hide this from me and doesn't want to tell me at all.

That's absolutely outrageous! That's utter nonsense. I came here with all my heart to help Su Xiaoxiao, how could I just stand by and watch her be bullied like this? That's simply impossible.

Qian Musheng pointed at him and said, "You heartless boss, do you have any conscience at all? How could you be so greedy for money? What were you thinking?"

However, the boss was already too frightened by Prince Gong to say anything more. Unexpectedly, another person came, and this one wasn't even there to help him.

The man standing opposite him was also a man of great skill in both speech and martial arts, so of course he wouldn't back down.

"Well, how would I know that Miss Su knows such powerful people as you? If I had known, I certainly wouldn't have dared to offend such a formidable young lady."

Actually, this is the pharmacy owner's honest opinion; even when he's bullying people, he's thinking about how to maximize his profits.

But this girl, who seemed easy to bully, turned out to be someone that ordinary people couldn't afford to mess with.

It seems he was unlucky this time and misjudged the situation.

Right now, the pharmacy owner must be kicking himself.

He immediately realized the importance of pragmatism and knelt down to beg for mercy.

"I didn't know Miss Su was so capable. I never expected she had a few of you backing her up!"

Qian Musheng glared at him and said, "What kind of talk is that? If it weren't for the few of us backing you up, would you think you could bully people like that? You're a wicked person by nature. I should have sent someone like you to jail a while long ago and you would have behaved!"

Prince Gong's eyes lit up upon hearing this.

"That's true. Although we don't get along well and often disagree, on this matter, I agree with you."

Upon hearing this, the pharmacy owner quickly waved his hands and cried out, "Gentlemen, I made a mistake, okay? Please be magnanimous and forgive me this time, alright?"

He began to beg for mercy from these people, but he did not know the identity of Prince Gong. They were either powerful figures in the capital or big business tycoons.

That's someone you really can't afford to offend. The person they're protecting right now is Su Xiaoxiao. He's incredibly unlucky; of all people to offend, he had to offend Su Xiaoxiao.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at the pitiful boss begging for mercy, and actually felt quite pleased inside.

After all, it feels really great to have someone help you without you having to do anything yourself.

The key point is that she wasn't bullying people because of her own abilities, but because when she was in trouble and being bullied by those people, someone actually stood up to help her.

The three handsome men standing in front of me are all incredibly powerful, each one more formidable than the last. They are truly formidable contenders who have both money and power.

Su Xiaoxiao didn't need to say a word or lift a finger to easily resolve the situation in front of her.

Liu Mang gently tugged at Su Xiaoxiao and asked, "Really? You even know Prince Gong?"

Su Xiaoxiao nodded confidently at him, "Of course, it's nothing. It looks like we're saved today."

Liu Mang was a stranger among these people; none of the others recognized this only son of Minister Liu.
