Hearing this, some of the Jiang family's regular customers also sided with Jiang's family.
"Yeah, how come we're fine after eating, but you're the only one who's having problems? You're deliberately causing trouble, aren't you!"
"Exactly, everyone is eating the same food, but you're the only one with problems. You must be the one doing this."
"Of course! You complained at first that the food in the shop was too expensive, so why did you order so much? Are you trying to dine and dash and deliberately frame Jiang's restaurant?"
"I think so too. If it weren't for deliberately causing trouble, how could so many people have eaten it without any problems, but you were the only one who had an issue?"
Seeing that many people were on Jiang Ji's side, the big man was not anxious at all. Instead, he said with a pained expression, "Who knows why I'm the only one who got sick from eating this? I'm afraid that the people from Jiang Ji are holding a grudge against me for the insults I just gave them and deliberately poisoned me."
You'd better be careful. If a customer complains about something, they might secretly poison the shop. Who would dare to come to a shop like that again?
Upon hearing this, the few people who had previously said the shop was expensive became frightened and dared not even order the dishes that had not yet been served, clamoring for a refund.
"I'm not eating it anymore, I want a refund. Who knows if you'll poison me too?"
"Yes, we just remarked that it was a bit expensive, and you actually poisoned your customers. I dare not eat in this shop anymore."
"Exactly. Who would dare to come to such a heartless shop? I certainly won't be coming here again. Who knows when I might offend someone in the shop and end up being poisoned to death without even realizing it."
Hearing the commotion, Wang Xiaohei was so angry that his hands trembled.
He tried to explain, but those people believed the big man's words and wouldn't listen to what he was saying. They just kept shouting for a refund and threatening to report him to the authorities.
The once bustling restaurant instantly descended into chaos.
Hearing the commotion outside, Zhao Dashu and the others came out of the kitchen. Upon hearing the shouts for refunds, they were not surprised and rushed to maintain order and try to calm everyone down.
But these people were so frightened by the burly man's miserable state that they couldn't listen to a word he said and were only focused on getting the shop to refund their money.
Jiang Yimian coldly watched as the burly man who had been lying on the ground got up at some point and was trying to escape by going around the crowd.
Just as he was about to leave the shop, the big man was overjoyed, thinking that today's job was really easy.
However, before he could be happy for long, his collar was grabbed tightly from behind, and the next second, he was thrown backward with great force and crashed heavily into the crowd.
With a loud bang, the people in the shop fell silent instantly, fearing they would be the next to be hit.
Jiang Yimian simply approached the crowd and said calmly, "Don't be afraid, everyone. This person's rash is not because he ate anything from my Jiang family, but because of the peanuts on his waist."
As she spoke, she reached for the cloth bag at the other person's waist.
The burly man was so frightened that he retreated repeatedly, clutching the cloth bag at his waist, and shouted, "Help! Murder and robbery! Everyone, please help me! Jiang's gang is full of robbers who kill and steal!"
"Help! Help!"
Jiang Yimian chuckled lightly and asked in confusion, "What, weren't you supposed to be dying from poisoning? You don't look like you're about to die at all!"
Upon hearing this, some people who hadn't yet come to their senses looked at the person on the ground.
The person who was originally extremely weak, as if he had endured some great pain, was now full of energy and was frantically retreating.
Although his face was still covered with a horrible red rash, he only showed fear and terror, and was no longer the person who looked like he was about to die.
Seeing that his scheme was about to be exposed, he didn't bother to pretend anymore. He got up from the ground and ran towards the edge of the crowd. Once he was gone, no matter how much the people in the shop tried to deny it, the fact that he had a rash would remain.
However, Jiang Yimian would not give him a chance to escape. She casually threw a cup, which hit him right in the back of his knee. Instantly, the man who was trying to escape fell to the ground again.
Wang Xiaohei and Zhao Erhei quickly stepped forward and pinned the person to the ground.
The big man was both angry and anxious, but he was pinned to the ground and couldn't move an inch. He could only curse loudly: "You heartless bastards, how can you do business like this? Not only did you poison the customer, but now you're beating him up."
I only had the strength to run away because I was scared. Everyone saw the rash on my face appear; it's because I ate Jiang Ji's food that I have this rash now.
What do you want to do? Go ahead and kill me now if you dare.
He refused to believe it. He was sure the woman had said it on purpose, probably just a lucky guess, hoping he would escape so the shop could be cleared of all charges.
He used this trick countless times, and never once was anyone caught.
Even if those people guessed that he deliberately dined and dashed, they had no idea how he did it. Over time, those restaurants and inns could only suffer in silence.
Jiang Yimian ignored his howling, reached out and grabbed the cloth bag from his waist, and said indifferently, "What, are you scared? Afraid that I will expose you for taking advantage of your allergy to dine and dash?"
The burly man tried to argue again, but Jiang Yimian didn't give him a chance. She coldly said, "This person is allergic to peanuts. Eating them will cause rashes. It's commonly known as eating 'trigger foods'."
"Look, everyone, there are no peanuts on your plates, only some peanut crumbs remain on this person's plate."
As she spoke, she picked up the big man's plate and showed it to everyone.
Besides a few chicken feet that had been gnawed down to bones, there were also a few small pieces of peanuts on the plate, which were hard to spot if you didn't look closely.
Seeing this, everyone looked at their own plates to make sure that there were no peanuts in any of them.
Now everyone understood and started cursing the big man on the ground.
"You shameless bastard! You deliberately ate something that would aggravate the shop, and you still have the nerve to cause trouble here. I'm going to send you to see the authorities today."
"Yes, these bastards who deliberately dine and dash should definitely be sent to the authorities."
"Absolutely, we absolutely cannot let him frame other shops again."
The burly man continued to loudly argue, "This woman is talking nonsense, don't believe her."
She's talking nonsense about allergens and allergies. It's obvious that this shop secretly poisoned my food, which is why I look like this now.
Don't be fooled by her sweet talk. I just like eating peanuts; who said they're a "trigger food"?
Jiang Yimian raised an eyebrow at his stubbornness and simply smiled, saying, "Really? Since you like peanuts so much, then you can finish this whole bag."
As she spoke, she tossed the bag of peanuts in her hand to Wang Xiaohei.
