Chen Deye didn't know that after he left, the things he had brought back were swept away. Usually, everyone was steady, but if anyone saw this scene at this time, they would misunderstand it as a robbery.
"Whose place is this? I want to bring my family to try it tomorrow, it's delicious!"
Those who had been to the medicinal cuisine restaurant today told their colleagues about the location and name: "It's on the mecha parts street, called Medicinal Cuisine and Tea. It's easy to find. But I saw that they seem to limit the number of tables each day, so you'd better book in advance."
"I need to book?"
"Yes, I heard that no matter what your identity is, there are no privileges."
"It's rare to see such a shop in the Imperial Capital Star."
While his subordinates were still chatting, Chen Deye had already arrived at the medicinal cuisine restaurant. Upon seeing Meng Huai, Chen Deye's attitude towards her changed. What was originally a cold, business-like demeanor was now much more enthusiastic.
"Shop owner, the inspection results are out. Your establishment is superior to the standards!"
"Thank you for coming in person."
"It's nothing, I'm not busy anyway. I'll send you pictures of the report."
After receiving the pictures, Meng Huai took a look. The report was very detailed, not only stating that it met the standards but also providing reference figures. Comparing the figures, the shop's numbers were indeed much higher than the standards.
After receiving the pictures, Meng Huai prepared to frame them. Wasn't this free advertising? Most people didn't have such a certificate!
The customers also knew that the health management department had come for an inspection today, and they were all waiting for news. If they found out that not only had they not closed, but they had also obtained this certification report, wouldn't they eat with even more peace of mind?
Meng Huai first posted these reports to their medicinal cuisine restaurant's account, informing everyone that they would be open as usual tomorrow.
This account was also used for grabbing dining slots online. Today, dining had been suddenly suspended, and customers who had booked for today were canceled. They were all inquiring on the account.
Meng Huai merely said she had something to do today and proposed compensation. However, she didn't reveal the specifics, so some customers came to inquire.
Many customers were following this account, so naturally, there were those who knew what was going on today.
Someone replied below the account: Snail: Does anyone know what's going on? Why did the medicinal cuisine restaurant suddenly close today? I had already booked to eat today!
Big Xiong yy: Reply to Snail: Huh? What about the reserved slots? Are they wasted?
Snail replies to Big Xiong yy: Not at all, the owner said I could go anytime. But I'm just curious what happened!
A Bear: Reply to Snail: The health management department came for an inspection today, and the store was temporarily closed. Let's wait for tomorrow's news. If the hygiene is not up to standard, there's no need to go.
This person named Snail, who was happily waiting to eat, was not only disappointed that the owner had broken her promise but was also very upset to hear that there might be hygiene issues. She complained about the news to her friend, who replied: "I heard it's not about hygiene, but the owner offended someone!"
"Isn't it about that incident someone posted a few days ago? The one about buying someone else's grabbed reservation!"
"Who knows! Anyway, I support the owner! No-brainer!"
"Okay, then I'll wait a little longer."
She waited for several hours, and when she saw that the medicinal cuisine restaurant's account finally posted news that they would be open as usual tomorrow, she was relieved.
"Did you see what the owner posted? No problem! Let's make plans for tomorrow!"
This incident indeed did not affect the medicinal cuisine restaurant. Instead, it attracted a wave of fans to the shop.
Some people enjoy sharing interesting things. These days, people have been sharing this sentence: "Do you know about that thing? It's that someone deliberately asked the health department to inspect a restaurant, but they didn't find any problems. Instead, it became an advertisement for the shop. I heard that everything in that shop is superior to the standards, it's hilarious! Want to go? I grabbed a reservation!"
"That shop! I know it! You're so capable of grabbing a reservation! Good brother, you still remember me."
While some were happy, others were worried. The medicinal cuisine restaurant was not shut down by this inspection. Instead, its business became better and better, which made Meng Yixin even more furious.
She smashed everything in the room again. Shang Pingying was fanning the flames: "Didn't you ask Chen Deye to cause trouble? Why did he end up helping them! Are you sure the message wasn't misinterpreted?"
Meng Yixin stood angrily in her room: "How is that possible! I told him I had a grudge with that shop owner, so why would he help that shop owner! Chen Deye!"
Shang Pingying also chimed in: "Yes, doesn't this person take you seriously? Or was he mesmerized by Meng Huai's appearance?"
Shang Pingying deliberately mentioned Meng Huai's appearance, and as expected, Meng Yixin was led by Shang Pingying's words: "It must be like this! I didn't expect Brother Chen to be this kind of person!"
Then she angrily said: "That woman really has some tricks up her sleeve!"
Meng Yixin still couldn't swallow her anger, but she couldn't think of any good way, so she sought Shang Pingying's opinion: "Yingying, what should we do then?"
Before Shang Pingying could say anything, they heard a knock on the door. A gentle voice rang out: "Xinxin? What's wrong? I heard something fall here, are you hurt?"
Shang Pingying and Meng Yixin were both startled by this voice. Meng Yixin quickly put the things she had just broken into her spatial distortion, then she hurried to open the door: "It's okay, Mom, something just fell on the floor."
Shang Pingying also quickly stood up and called out to the person: "Auntie."
This person was Meng Yixin's mother, Qi Nan, Marshal Meng's second wife. This person was not as gentle as rumored. Although she appeared gentle to everyone, Shang Pingying was extremely afraid of her.
Her most vivid memory was from childhood when she took Meng Yixin out to play, and the little princess accidentally fell. She thought that her usually gentle aunt would not scold her, but Qi Nan did not get angry at Shang Pingying. However, Shang Pingying clearly remembered the look in Qi Nan's eyes, as if she were a venomous snake.
But in the blink of an eye, that look disappeared, and she resumed her usual gentle demeanor. Shang Pingying, as a child, thought she had seen incorrectly, but after being beaten at home, she realized that if this little princess Meng Yixin had any problems, she wouldn't be able to afford the consequences.
Afterward, she became more and more aware that Qi Nan was not as she appeared on the surface, and therefore she feared her even more.
However, Qi Nan wanted exactly this effect. In her eyes, Shang Pingying was merely a playmate for her beloved daughter. If she couldn't fulfill that role, then there were many others who wanted to be that playmate!
Qi Nan looked at the only cosmetic jar that had fallen on the floor in her beloved daughter's room, shattered all over the place. But when she looked at the vanity, it was already empty. Naturally, she knew her daughter's little tricks, but since her daughter didn't say anything, she wouldn't ask further.
The child was growing up and wanted to have secrets. If she could solve the problem herself, then she would help.
Thinking this, Qi Nan's eyes flashed with a hint of ruthlessness. She simply said: "Ah, then I'll call someone to clean it up. You two play."
