Chapter 476 Too bad
The food court attendant walked towards the entourage.
The follower's eyes flickered and his expression became nervous.
He shouted in the direction of Meng Lin: "Master, save me."
Meng Lin stood in front of his followers and said arrogantly, "Why do you touch my followers?"
"You keep saying that our restaurant is trying to kill people, and I also suspect that you are trying to eat and dine for free and deliberately cause trouble. You are the son of the general's mansion, and your status is noble. We can't search you, but we ask that you search your servants. Is this too much?"
"How could I be such a shameless person? How could I refuse to pay for your meal?"
"People's hearts are unpredictable. Who knows? You've caused such a big incident and ruined our store's reputation. You can either say you're deliberately blackmailing us, or you can say your rivals are deliberately sending us to slander us. In any case, we have the right to raise questions."
Meng Lin untied his belt.
"Oh, what do you want to do?" Zhilan quickly stood in front of Qin Huiyin.
"Don't bother. If you want to search me, I'll let you search."
Qin Huiyin looked at Meng Lin's clear eyes and thought he was a little silly.
"You didn't want us to search your attendants, but you asked us to search you. This shows that there's nothing wrong with you, but your attendants are even more suspicious. Let me ask you, what attendant is more valuable than their master?"
The people nearby were talking a lot.
"Yeah, if that follower is fine, why are they trying to stop him? Are they really trying to deliberately slander the food city?"
"They have built such a big business, why would they do something that would damage their reputation? I think they're either deliberately framing their rivals or trying to extort money. The General's Mansion certainly wouldn't do such a thing, but this young master's brain is a little dim, so it's possible he could be taken advantage of."
Jiang Yunzhou watched the show from the side.
He looked at this quirky girl with a more scorching gaze.
If she were just a pretty vase, you would get bored after just a few days of admiring her. But she wasn't like that. She was so vibrant that one would want to clip her wings and turn her into an obedient doll.
He particularly enjoys the process of training and teaching.
The more noble and proud those beauties were, the more he liked to tease and teach them.
"Master Meng, if your follower is alright, we can prove his innocence by simply searching him. The more you try to stop him, the more it shows that there's something wrong with you." Qin Huiyin said, "Or are you feeling guilty and afraid to prove it?"
"I am a gentleman who walks upright and stands tall. What is there to be afraid of?"
"Then let us search."
Meng Lin looked at the attendant and said, "Stand still here and let them search. If they can't find anything, I'll settle the score with them."
The attendant's expression became even more panicked.
Qin Huiyin gestured and asked the waiter to search the follower.
The attendant tried to escape but was caught by the servants. Two servants held him down while another searched his body and soon found a needle bag in the lining of his clothes.
There are several needles in the needle bag, each of which is similar in length and size.
"Boss, look." The waiter handed over the needle bag angrily.
Qin Huiyin took out a needle from the needle bag and compared it with the previous needle. Looking at Meng Lin, who looked shocked, she said, "Mr. Meng, do you want to compare them?"
After being shocked, Meng Lin grabbed the attendant's collar, his eyes filled with anger: "Why do you do this? Do I need you to eat or drink?"
"Master, please spare me...Master, please spare me..." The follower knelt on the ground and said tremblingly.
"Mr. Meng, this is your family affair and I shouldn't interfere. But your followers harmed people in our store, which led to us being involved in a murder case, so we demand that this traitorous servant be sent to the government." Qin Huiyin said.
"No need to be so troublesome. I'm here, just hand it over to me." Jiang Yunzhou said with a smile.
"This matter involves a murder case, so the Jingzhao government should take over." Qin Huiyin said, "The East City Military Commission only needs to maintain public order."
Jiang Yunzhou originally wanted to show off in front of the beauty, but the beauty handled the matter so decisively and simply that he didn't have the chance to do so.
But it didn't matter. He was currently commanding the East City Army, and the food street was within the East City area, so they would have plenty of time to meet in the future.
He only needed to show his face today to let her know whose territory this was and who she would have to please in the future.
"I have wronged you. I apologize." Meng Lin graciously admitted his fault and bowed to Qin Huiyin. "I'll bring you an apology another day. Today, I'm sending this traitor to the authorities. I can't understand why he's trying to harm me, and I demand an explanation."
"Now that the matter has been clarified, we are not unreasonable. Master Meng has generously admitted his mistakes, and everyone has seen it. So, for the sake of General Meng, we will not embarrass you. Please do as you please, Master Meng."
Qin Huiyin asked two men to escort the man to the Jingzhao government office.
No matter why the follower wanted to harm his master here, it was a fact that he had implicated their Food City, and an explanation was necessary.
The problem was solved, and everyone saw that the food in the food court was fine, so they could eat with peace of mind again.
"Boss Qin, I want to invite all the brothers in the military department to have dinner at your food city. How much silver do you think it would cost to book the whole place?" Jiang Yunzhou followed Qin Huiyin.
Qin Huiyin stopped and looked in the direction of Jiang Yunzhou: "Master Jiang wants to book the whole place?"
Zhilan looked at the other people from the military department.
There were many familiar faces among those people, and everyone was very familiar with them, but now that the leader had changed, they all looked like wooden logs, and looked listless.
They weren't like this before.
"That's right. I'm new in this position and need to get to know the brothers. Treating everyone to a meal is the quickest way to do that."
"Do you want to book one floor or the whole place? If you only book one floor, it's 1,000 taels of silver for all-you-can-eat meals, but you can't take out. If you book the whole place, it'll cost 5,000 taels of silver."
Jiang Yunzhou raised his eyebrows and looked at her with a half-smile: "This store of Mr. Qin's is very expensive!"
"My food court is doing very well. We have to reserve a table almost half a month in advance. If you want to book my place, I will have to apologize to the customers who have reserved a table. Doesn't that cost money? Lord Jiang, don't think it's too expensive. This place is worth the price."
Even though Jiang Yunzhou was the son of the Earl's Mansion, it wasn't a bank, so he couldn't just give her whatever she wanted. He had hoped to win the beauty's heart with money, but now there was no hope.
This little girl is a bit difficult!
But he just likes challenges.
"Forget it. If we can't book the whole place, delivery is fine, right? I heard your restaurant has a delivery service." Jiang Yunzhou said, "One thousand fried chicken combos."
"A thousand taels of silver." Qin Huiyin said calmly, "You can directly contact the shopkeeper of our store in the future. Excuse me, Lord Jiang."
