“Extort money?” The man stood up. He was taller than Li Xiaohui. “See for yourself. Isn’t this a c.o.c.kroach?”
Li Xiaohui said calmly, “I run a business in good faith. My kitchen is completely open and transparent. Therefore, there can’t be any c.o.c.kroaches here…”
Another man overturned the table and said to the other diners in the diner, “Brothers and sisters, you come to judge. We have eaten a c.o.c.kroach here. Is this the att.i.tude that the boss should have? Don’t you understand the customer is always right? It’s obviously the boss doesn’t treat us that way at all…”
The other diners felt sick and stopped eating when they heard that there was a c.o.c.kroach in the red oil soup.
With the man making such a fuss, the people with conscience paid the money and left, and those without conscience just left.
“What do you want?” Li Xiaohui gritted her teeth.
The man said, “What do I want? Either you give me 1,000 yuan, or I call the Health Department and complain about your diner.”
Li Xiaohui, who was just a small owner of a Spicy Hot Pot diner, laughed in disgust. These people would dare to extort her for 1,000 yuan like this today.
Someone would use the same method to extort her 10,000 yuan tomorrow.
Was it easy for her to make money?
“Do you know how much money I make in one day? You dare to ask for 1,000 yuan. G.o.d, you’re asking for way too much…”
The man sneered. When he saw that there were no other people in the diner, he said directly, “Look, this area is our boss’s territory. The 1,000 yuan is a month’s protection fee. Listen up, little girl; you give us the money, and your diner will be protected by our boss in the future…”
“Who is your boss?”
Ye Tianxin was stunned the moment Li Xiaohui came out. No wonder she was familiar with the smell. It turned out that it was Li Xiaohui’s small diner.
These people were clearly bullying her, and Ye Tianxin couldn’t ignore it.
The man glanced at Ye Tianxin, “Little girl, mind your own business.”
Ye Tianxin glanced at the man sympathetically, then whispered, “Young man, listen up. As long as I’m here today, you won’t be able to get the protection fee from this beautiful lady boss. Since I’m in a good mood today, I’ll give you two choices: either you get the h.e.l.l out of here, or I’m coming after you. You decide!”
Li Xiaohui looked at Ye Tianxin with a complicated expression. “Tianxin, you don’t have to stand up for me.”
Since she came to the Imperial Capital, Li Xiaohui’s vision suddenly opened up.
When she was in Jiameng town, she thought that Jiameng town was the biggest town there was.
After arriving in the Imperial Capital, she realized the prosperity of the Imperial Capital and her own insignificance.
After she opened this small diner, it occurred to her that something like this might happen to her.
Since she had opened the diner for more than a month, she had been getting up early and working very hard to make money. She wanted to save some money so that she could take the examination for film school.
She thought she was lucky to have avoided trouble in her diner for more than a month.
It turned out it was not like that. Those people were waiting for her business to get better.
“Little girl, who do you think you are? I advise you to mind your own business, or you’ll get into trouble.”
Ye Tianxin smiled, “Hey, brother, do you think n.o.body saw you put the c.o.c.kroach in it?”
“You….” The man didn’t expect that Ye Tianxin and Li Qingcang had seen him throwing a c.o.c.kroach in the plate just then. He pointed his finger at Ye Tianxin’s face, “Shut up!”
