Without saying a word, Su Xiaoning grabbed Su Qingcai and insisted on going to seek justice for the villagers. Su Qingcai said nothing and silently followed behind Su Xiaoning. The villagers couldn't stop them and could only watch helplessly as they headed towards Qinghe Town.
Upon arriving in Qinghe Town, Su Xiaoning immediately found out the address of the new restaurant. She rushed over, and as soon as she entered, she overturned a table and shouted, "Get your boss out here to see me!"
Su Xiaoning was furious and determined not to be outdone in terms of momentum. The servant was intimidated, so he actually invited Boss Wang.
Upon seeing someone dare to cause trouble in his restaurant, Boss Wang sneered, pointed at Su Xiaoning, and ordered his thugs, "A weak woman dares to cause trouble on my turf? She really needs to be taught a lesson! Give her a good beating!"
The thugs responded and immediately surrounded Su Xiaoning.
Su Xiaoning thought to herself that she was in trouble and quickly covered her head with her hands, lamenting that she had been too impulsive and was now bound to get a beating.
She closed her eyes tightly, but then she heard a series of cracking sounds, as if something was hitting her, but the expected pain did not come.
Su Xiaoning cautiously opened her eyes, and was immediately stunned when she saw the posture of the person protecting her.
Su Qingcai stood in front of Su Xiaoning, holding a stool in his hand, which was stained with some bright red blood. Several thugs lay dead in front of him, their faces covered in blood, looking extremely gruesome.
"Let's see who dares to touch her."
Su Qingcai spoke sharply, his eyes filled with a cold, menacing light. Unlike his usual approachable demeanor, he was now radiating a chilling aura that made people tremble with fear.
He stood protectively in front of Su Xiaoning, like a solid barrier.
Su Xiaoning slowly lowered her hands from her head, gently tugging at Su Qingcai's clothes, feeling a mix of indescribable emotions.
Su Qingcai turned around, patted Su Xiaoning's hand reassuringly, gave her a forced smile, and then turned back to his stern expression.
"Can we talk properly now?"
The thugs looked at each other, and after witnessing Su Qingcai's fighting prowess, they were all hesitant to step forward. When Boss Wang saw that the person in front of him seemed to be a formidable character, his expression immediately changed to a smile.
"No problem, no problem! Let's value peace and talk things out instead of resorting to violence!"
With a wave of his hand, Boss Wang dismissed the thugs, leaving only the three of them in the lobby.
Seeing that she had the right to speak, Su Xiaoning questioned him without any politeness: "I'm asking you, did you injure a villager from our Carp Village, and did you steal all his fish without paying him?!"
"So you're from Carp Village..." A cold glint flashed in Boss Wang's eyes as he feigned a troubled expression. "I admit I might have been in the wrong, but it's not all my fault! I only tried to negotiate a lower price because the fish that villager brought looked a bit stale, but he was ungrateful and insisted on arguing with me. I had no choice but to sell..."
"What do you mean 'forced by circumstances'? You're shameless!" Su Xiaoning was so angry she almost jumped up. "The fish from our Carp Village have always been top-notch, there's absolutely no chance of them being stale! Only fish from our village can make the best fish soup. Now you're saying our fish aren't good? I think you can forget about doing business!"
The biggest reason why restaurants in Qinghe Town compete to buy fish from Liyu Village is that these fish can make the best fish soup. Now, people in Qinghe Town love to drink fish soup, and any restaurant that can't make this kind of fish soup will suffer a lot in business.
Mr. Wang, however, was wealthy and generous. He had only come to Qinghe Town to open a restaurant for leisure and hadn't thought much about buying fish from Carp Village just because it was trendy. But now that Su Xiaoning was bringing up fish soup, he rolled his eyes and said, "Who knows if you can make the best fish soup with fish from your village? I want to buy the best when I'm paying for it. Why should I spend a lot of money on something that isn't fresh?"
Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoning was instantly enraged and gritted her teeth, saying, "I can guarantee that the fish in our village are the best ingredients, perfect for making the most perfect fish soup! If you don't believe me, I'll make it for you myself!"
Mr. Wang initially wanted to refuse, but then he thought that only he knew what the food tasted like. Even if he insisted that the fish soup was bad, what could the other party do to him? So he changed his mind and agreed.
"Okay, go make the fish soup. If it's really as you say, I'll pay you!"
It's a deal!
Su Xiaoning made an agreement with Boss Wang. Boss Wang asked someone to randomly pick a fish from the fish brought by the villagers. Su Xiaoning then took the fish to the restaurant's kitchen and started cooking.
Just like last time at Ruxingjia Restaurant, the fish had only been in the pot for a short while when a rich aroma filled every corner of the restaurant.
Mr. Wang was sitting there listlessly when he smelled the aroma and unconsciously swallowed, instinctively wanting to find the source of the fragrance. But remembering his original purpose, he could only pretend to be uninterested in the fish soup and obediently remain seated in his chair.
This ordeal lasted for half an hour before Su Xiaoning finally brought out the fish soup.
She placed the soup bowl in front of Boss Wang's table, arms crossed, looking quite proud.
As the fish soup approached, its intoxicating aroma grew even stronger. Mr. Wang, maintaining a stern face, took a small spoonful, and before he could even put it in his mouth, he couldn't wait to begin his disparaging remarks:
"This fish soup is terrible. I've had so many fish soups before, and this is probably the worst one I've ever made. I can't even taste what it's like... Uh, wait a minute..."
The fish soup in his mouth suddenly awakened Mr. Wang's taste buds. Mr. Wang's eyes widened suddenly, and his derogatory words came to an abrupt halt.
The fish soup is fresh and fragrant, and the fish meat is delicate and tender. It melts in your mouth as soon as you put it in your mouth. A delicious taste that you have never experienced before sweeps through your entire mouth, making you feel refreshed and wanting to die for it.
Mr. Wang savored the taste in his mouth, even forgetting what he was originally going to say. He couldn't help but sip the fish soup in front of him spoonful after spoonful, feeling as happy as a god.
Seeing the bowl of fish soup quickly emptied, Su Xiaoning smiled triumphantly, "How about that? I told you our fish could make the most perfect fish soup! Now you can pay me back, right?"
Mr. Wang had a sudden thought and was about to speak when a sharp pain shot through his throat. His expression changed instantly, and he clutched his throat in pain.
Oh no, he's got a fishbone stuck in his throat!
"I...I need to find a doctor..."
Mr. Wang's face turned a deep purplish-red. He managed to utter a few words and ran out quickly.
