Chapter 92: Chapter 92 Do Not Compromise with Evil Forces_1

Industrial and commercial staff walked into the restaurant and saw a crowd gathered together and also spotted a reporter.

They didn’t bother with these distractions, they focused on what they needed to do. The leading Mr. Wu called out, "We are from the industrial and commercial department, who is the boss here?"

"I am." Chen Yuanxiang immediately stepped forward.

"Someone has complained to us, saying there are flies in the food at your restaurant. According to the relevant regulations, we need to conduct a hygiene check on your restaurant, and we hope you will cooperate," Mr. Wu said in a serious tone.

"Of course, I will cooperate," Chen Yuanxiang had no objections.

He was eager for the industrial and commercial law enforcement to clear his name.

"Hold on a moment." At this time, Pan Yao approached Mr. Wu and said, "Hello, I’m Pan Yao, a reporter from Hai City Television. We are currently live broadcasting. May I accompany you in the inspection? It would be more convincing that way."

"Okay." After thinking for a bit, Mr. Wu agreed.

Reporters are the most troublesome, if he didn’t agree, they would probably suspect that he was covering for the restaurant owner, and he couldn’t afford such a risk.

"Thank you, my interview will be over soon, could you please wait for me?" Pan Yao said.

"Sure." Mr. Wu nodded.

Waiting for a while was no big deal.

It didn’t matter if the reporter’s interview would end soon or even if it took another hour, he had to wait.

Reporters are simply untouchable.

With a smile, Pan Yao expressed her gratitude, "Thank you."

At that moment, she saw Ma Minghao hang up the phone and come back. Pan Yao immediately walked over to him and said, "Mr. Ma, our earlier interview isn’t finished. Please continue."

Ma Minghao looked uneasy and shook his head, "I have nothing more to say."

Caught off guard, Pan Yao then said, "You have already said quite a lot, and the facts are clear. It’s okay if you don’t want to talk further. The industrial and commercial staff are here now; I invite you to join us in checking the hygiene in the restaurant’s kitchen. Let’s go."

Ma Minghao did not move. The expression on his face became conflicted, and soon after, he clenched his teeth and approached Mr. Wu, saying, "Mr. Wu, I did not find any flies in the food. The flies were brought by me. I added them to the food when no one was paying attention."

What!

The entire place was in uproar.

"Do you realize that what you did is illegal!" Mr. Wu did not expect such a twist in the situation and his face turned grim.

This guy, he was the one who reported it, and now he’s saying he prepared the flies himself.

What the hell are you playing at?

"Buddy, when you stepped out to take that call, did someone threaten you?"

"Definitely, otherwise he would never say something like this."

"Damn, that’s so bold, the restaurant owner must have some serious backing."

"Without some backing, would he dare to run a shady operation?"

"It seems I’m still too naive. I thought the restaurant was done for, but I didn’t expect it to turn out like this."

"Man, don’t be afraid, we are live broadcasting. I don’t believe this restaurant owner can cover the sky with one hand!"

"Right, we support you, we must take this restaurant owner down!"

Some customers speculated that Ma Minghao was threatened, their indignation rising as they voiced their support for him.

"Mr. Ma, have you been threatened?" In Pan Yao’s eyes shone excitement.

If it were merely unhygienic conditions and a greedy owner, that would certainly attract some viewers.

But if the owner was corrupt and also connected, digging that out could definitely become a viral news event, perhaps even a sensation on the internet.

The general public loves this kind of news.

This news report, once released, will undoubtedly multiply her bonus several times over for this month.

Furthermore, it will be beneficial for her career.

A journalist who uncovers a hot topic is on a different career trajectory than one who doesn’t.

Thinking of all this, Pan Yao couldn’t help but smile.

If it weren’t for the live broadcast, if it weren’t for the public setting, she would certainly burst into unreserved laughter.

"I wasn’t threatened, what I just said was true, I did take 20,000 yuan from someone to stir up trouble with the flies, to notify the business bureau and the journalists, just to blow the issue up and shut this restaurant down," Ma Minghao said.

The person who had called him earlier was his boss.

His boss had said if he didn’t reveal the truth publicly, they would break his arms and legs.

Hearing his boss’s words, his heart shook violently.

He knew all too well that his boss was a ruthless person.

If he didn’t comply, there was no doubt they would follow through on their threat to break his limbs.

He remembered a colleague who hadn’t followed the boss’s orders ended up with a very grim fate.

"Dad, let’s call the police," Shen Dong said as he approached his father-in-law.

"Yes, yes, call the police, I’ll do it right now, this bastard almost ruined my restaurant."

Chen Yuanxiang quickly took out his cell phone and dialed the emergency number.

"Buddy, I can tell you’re definitely being threatened!"

"Buddy, don’t be afraid, we can’t compromise with evil forces."

"Right, bring back the sense of justice from earlier, with so many of us supporting you, and it’s live broadcast, you have countless viewers on your side, what are you afraid of?"

"Man, boldly speak out, let this unscrupulous business face the consequences it deserves."

"Comrades from the business bureau, you should be able to tell, this man has definitely been threatened. One can imagine how extensive the restaurant owner’s network is, you must not let this slide."

"Exactly, if even you back down, what are we, the common people, supposed to do?"

"It’s absolutely brazen, they dare to threaten even during a live broadcast, such evil forces must be rooted out."

"Buddy, as long as the journalists report it, your safety is guaranteed, don’t back down."

"Buddy, you said you brought the flies to shut the restaurant down, but now you’re saying the flies were brought by yourself, who would believe you haven’t been threatened if you weren’t? "

"Right, you don’t look like a fool."

"Man, if you’re going to do something, stick to it, you absolutely can’t compromise with evil forces, we all support you, and we won’t let you get hurt."

The crowd grew even angrier, convinced that Ma Minghao had been threatened.

"What I’m saying is true, no one has threatened me, I felt guilty, and that’s why I chose to tell the truth. If you don’t believe me, I can show evidence, someone paid me to make trouble, look."

Ma Minghao was really frustrated; if he didn’t clarify things, he would indeed have his limbs broken.

He immediately took out his cell phone, swiped a few times, and turned the screen toward the crowd.

The cameraman quickly focused the lens on the cell phone screen.

On the phone screen was a WeChat conversation.

Nan Huang: A friend recommended you, said you’re especially good at causing trouble?

Mr. Ma of Hai City: Absolutely.

Nan Huang: No problem shutting down a restaurant, right?

Mr. Ma of Hai City: Of course, no problem, I’ve done this kind of thing many times already.
