Chapter 47: 042 All the past is just a prologue_3

The girl’s tone was fast yet steady, every word hitting like a strike of thunder.

Manager Zhao initially looked utterly dismissive, but as he listened further, his face turned pale.

The crowd perked up the moment they heard about Golden Spoon’s tax evasion.

"Last time I went to Golden Spoon and asked for a receipt, the staff told me their system was down and they couldn’t issue one. I felt something was fishy back then. Turns out there really is a problem!"

"Fisherman’s Joy isn’t much better, always hyping things up. The food’s so-so and ridiculously expensive. I bet the money they evaded in taxes went straight into their marketing campaigns. They should be investigated thoroughly."

"This girl is amazing. Instead of backing down when bullied, she quickly found the other side’s flaws and counterattacked. Looks like Fisherman’s Joy has hit a brick wall this time."

"It’s just a restaurant, so full of itself. Had me queuing under the midday sun without even offering a sip of water. I’ve had enough of their nonsense."

The queuing customers had long been filled with grievances, but no one dared to speak up. Now that someone stood up, they all began venting their dissatisfaction.

Shen You’an smiled faintly, "Mr. Jin Yu, who snatched my reserved private dining room, must be having a delightful meal right about now."

This time, Manager Zhao was genuinely frightened. For the first time, he regarded this girl seriously.

Such sharp logic, such meticulous thinking.

It sparked a deep sense of fear in the pits of one’s heart.

"You... who exactly are you? Are you from Moon Pavilion? Do you think tarnishing Fisherman’s Joy will suddenly make Moon Pavilion’s business thrive? Laughable."

"Stop trying to divert attention. I’m just an ordinary consumer. But as for you all, deceiving the consumers— the evidence is irrefutable."

Shen You’an tapped on her phone, playing an audio recording.

It was precisely Manager Zhao’s arrogant warning moments earlier: "Who do you think you are? Do you even compare to our boss’s distinguished guest? Take your money and scram!" His tone was condescending and resonating.

As the crowd listened, they grew increasingly enraged.

They were all consumers. Being humiliated so blatantly was hard for anyone to tolerate.

Manager Zhao’s facial expression went beyond complicated.

"I pay my taxes on time like any law-abiding citizen. Of course, I’m nowhere comparable to an entrepreneur like Jin Yu who evades taxes. Oh, wait, he’s unworthy of being called an entrepreneur— he’s just a criminal suspect."

Qi Baotan’s eyes sparkled as she looked at Shen You’an, her gaze filled with admiration.

She had never met someone so clever, so composed, so formidable.

Like a dazzling sunbeam, illuminating her entire world from then on.

Jiang Han’s gaze had been fixed on Shen You’an the whole time. Watching her confident and calm demeanor, he slowly lowered his head in slight despondence.

He, a grown man, couldn’t even offer the slightest help.

Manager Zhao’s finger trembled as he pointed at her, unable to utter a single word for a long while.

To outsiders, it might’ve looked like he was having an epileptic seizure.

Wu Mei’en hurried over upon learning of the commotion. When she heard about what happened at the entrance, her face turned grim.

"Who exactly is this person?"

This incident had completely tarnished Fisherman’s Joy’s reputation. Competitors were all waiting like vultures to pounce, and more marketing expenses would now be required to mitigate the damage.

The assistant said, "She’s the customer who originally reserved the room at Juxie, but since Mr. Jin came on short notice, we gave her room to him. Manager Zhao had already promised compensation, but she refused to let it go. President Wu, this can’t go on. If public opinion keeps fermenting, it won’t just harm Fisherman’s Joy but will also drag Golden Spoon into the mess."

"Then get some people to forcibly take her away. Beat her up first if necessary. If she dares to fight me, I’ll make sure she disappears without a trace," Wu Mei’en said through gritted teeth, her eyes harsh and determined.

The assistant looked troubled. "She knows martial arts. A few security guards couldn’t even get close before being taken down."

Wu Mei’en shouted irritably, "Then what do you suggest?"

She refused to believe that a young girl could be so capable. Surely, she must’ve been sent by competitors. Her extensive knowledge of Golden Spoon suggested she had come prepared.

The assistant proposed, "The bodyguard by Mr. Jin’s side is incredibly skilled. Why not ask him to step in and subdue her first? Otherwise, if this continues to escalate, the situation will spiral further out of control."

Wu Mei’en thought of the tall bodyguard who was always by Jin Yu’s side. She had heard Jin Yu mention him before. The internal conflicts within the Jin family were fierce, so he had spent a fortune to hire that bodyguard, who was a former mercenary— capable of taking down ten men singlehandedly.

Wu Mei’en turned back to the private room and exaggeratedly recounted the incident at the entrance to Jin Yu.

Jin Yu was furious upon hearing it. "This is outrageous! Xiao Long, go deal with her for me."
