I started out with seven husbands, and I worked hard to support my family while crying.

Chapter 285: You guys have really done something terrible!

That morning, as soon as the shop doors were removed, a group of angry customers surged in like a tidal wave.

Leading the charge was a middle-aged woman with a stout build, her face swollen like over-fermented dough.

Its body was covered with dense, red bean-like rashes, and its two eyes were wide open like copper bells, with a fierce look as if it could devour Fang Xiaoxiao alive.

"Fang Xiaoxiao, you guys have really done something terrible! Look what you've done to my face!"

She screamed at the top of her lungs, her voice shrill and sharp, like an enraged she-devil.

At the same time, he forcefully moved his horribly disfigured face closer to Fang Xiaoxiao, as if he were about to fight her to the death.

Fang Xiaoxiao hurriedly tried to explain, her words stammering in her anxiety.

"Ma'am, please calm down. There might be a misunderstanding here. Our product..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by a young woman's tearful shout.

"Misunderstanding? My face was originally as smooth as white jade, and I used your lousy body lotion."

The itching is so bad I want to scratch my face raw, and the pain keeps me awake all night! How can I possibly go out and face anyone?!

She stomped her feet as she spoke, looking like a delicate woman who had suffered a great injustice.

"That's right, you have to give us an explanation!"

Others joined in the shouting, creating a cacophony that sounded like a flock of ducks in disarray.

"Compensate us for our losses!"

"What kind of poison are you selling? It's practically a disfiguring potion!"

The crowd grew increasingly agitated, each person resembling an enraged beast.

Some people even reached out and shoved Fang Xiaoxiao, who staggered like a leaf swaying in a storm.

Fang Xiaoxiao tried to steady herself, took a deep breath, and said loudly.

"Dear elders, gentlemen and ladies, please calm down and listen to what I have to say."

We will definitely take full responsibility and provide everyone with a satisfactory solution.

But the customers were no longer listening; they were all like firecrackers that had been lit.

An elderly man with a face covered in red rashes roared in a trembling voice, his beard quivering with rage.

"Take responsibility? If my old face is ruined, how can you afford to compensate me? How can I meet with my old friends again, how can I hold my head up in this city!"

At that moment, a tall man also shouted.

"Don't listen to her nonsense. If she doesn't give us a satisfactory solution today, we'll smash this shop and make sure they can never do business again!"

Surrounded by the crowd, Fang Xiaoxiao felt like an ant that had fallen into a pot of boiling oil. She was sweating profusely and her heart was in her throat.

Lin Wan'er, standing nearby, was so frightened that her face turned as pale as paper, her delicate body trembled, and she huddled in the corner, not daring to utter a sound.

The middle-aged woman stood with her hands on her hips, spitting as she spoke.

"I spent a lot of money to buy this piece of trash from you, and now the money is gone and my face is ruined!"

If you don't give me an explanation, I will fight you to the death!

The young woman also sobbed as she spoke.

"I'm about to be betrothed, how can I face my husband's family looking like this? You've ruined my life's most important event!"

Someone in the crowd shouted again.

"Yes, they must not be let off lightly; they must be compensated!"

In an instant, the store descended into chaos, with shouts, cries, and accusations mingling together in a lively cacophony.

After the storm of customer anger subsided, Fang Xiaoxiao didn't dare to waste a moment. She immediately dragged Wan'er and Lin Wan'er into the arduous journey of finding the root of the problem.

The two first stepped into the familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar workshop.

The workshop was filled with a faint aroma of herbs and goat milk, but Fang Xiaoxiao's bright, star-like eyes were now filled with solemnity and focus.

She is as meticulous as a detective, leaving no corner unchecked that might conceal clues.

"Wan'er, come and take a look at this goat milk."

Fang Xiaoxiao leaned down slightly, gently dipped her finger into a little goat milk, and examined it carefully in the sunlight.

"This color seems too pale compared to before, lacking that rich, milky white texture."

Lin Wan'er walked over quickly, her delicate eyebrows slightly furrowed, and she followed Fang Xiaoxiao's example to examine the area, before slowly shaking her head.

"Judging from the color alone, it may be difficult to make a definitive statement, but it does have a somewhat strange appearance."

After saying that, they turned their gaze to the neatly arranged herbs on the side.

Fang Xiaoxiao gently picked up a plant, held it to her nose and sniffed it. Instantly, her expression became more and more serious.

"Wan'er, smell this. There's a faint, unpleasant odor mixed in with the scent of these herbs. The original fresh fragrance has been completely ruined by this odor."

Lin Wan'er took the herbs, smelled them carefully, and nodded in agreement.

"Indeed, this strange smell is very peculiar. Could there have been a problem during the procurement process?"

Thinking of this, the two did not hesitate at all, and with a heart full of doubts and urgency, they rushed to find the clerk in charge of purchasing.

The shopkeeper was busy when he suddenly saw Fang Xiaoxiao and Lin Wan'er walking towards him with serious expressions and a menacing aura.

My heart skipped a beat, and a bad feeling rose within me.

"Tell me! Where did you get this batch of herbs and goat milk from?"

Fang Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows and stared intently at the waiter, her gaze seemingly able to see right through him.

The waiter trembled at the sharp gaze and answered stammeringly.

"I'm innocent! It's the same suppliers as always. I've always followed the rules and would never dare to be negligent in the slightest."

Fang Xiaoxiao snorted coldly.

"Is that really true? If there's even a hint of falsehood, you'll be in big trouble! Come on, take us to see the supplier now."

The man dared not disobey and could only lead the way cautiously.

At the supplier's place, Fang Xiaoxiao and Lin Wan'er conducted a thorough interrogation and investigation, leaving no detail unchecked and no suspicious detail overlooked.

Finally, under their relentless pressure, the truth gradually came to light.

It turned out that one of the suppliers had been secretly bribed to deliberately deliver substandard products in an attempt to sabotage their business.

"How utterly despicable! Who on earth is behind this insidious scheme?"

Fang Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth and clenched her fists in anger, wishing she could immediately expose the mastermind behind it all.

Lin Wan'er gently patted Fang Xiaoxiao's shoulder and softly comforted her.

"Xiao Xiao, don't be too angry. Now that we've found the problem, we'll definitely be able to come up with a solution and make the mastermind suffer the consequences."

Fang Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and her eyes became firm again.

"That's right, Wan'er, we absolutely cannot let that villain succeed!"

After learning that the supplier had been bribed, Fang Xiaoxiao and Lin Wan'er secretly plotted in their bedroom, determined to set up a clever scheme to expose the mastermind behind it all.
