Chapter 28 The Troublemaker



"I think something's gone wrong in your head." Gu Yanyue couldn't help but sneer. "How foolish can one be to say such a thing? You're simply unreasonable. Although I respectfully call you Sister, according to our status, you should still call me Madam."

"You... no matter what, I'm still your sister!" Gu Yanrou was left speechless by Gu Yanyue. She didn't seem to know what to do next. She had no choice but to bring out such rude words.

"After all, state affairs are more important than family matters. If we think about it in detail..." Gu Yanyue didn't finish her words, giving Gu Yanrou a little face. "I'm sure the imperial concubine wouldn't want to make a big fuss in public. It would only damage her reputation."

"Don't worry about it, sister." Gu Yanrou stared at Gu Yanyue, then waved her hand and left.

Watching Gu Yanrou's hurried departure, Gu Yanyue felt somewhat pleased with herself. This was a win for her.

"I'm so angry!" Gu Yanrou was very angry when she returned to her palace.

She had always been the one suppressing her sister, but who would have thought that she would suddenly come to her senses and suppress him? Then she would definitely not let him have it easy.

Gu Yanrou rolled her eyes and came up with a clever plan. She quietly called the maid beside her and whispered it in her ear.

The maid nodded after hearing what Gu Yanrou said, then took advantage of the night to sneak out of the palace with Caimai.

At the same time, the next day, an uninvited guest came to Gu Yanyue's Fengji Restaurant.

The man looked ordinary in clothing, but he ordered the signature dish. The waiters didn't take it seriously, thinking he was some young master in disguise.

Fengji Restaurant is quite famous in the capital, and many gourmets come here in disguise to enjoy the food. Gu Yanyue is also well aware of the importance of reputation, and she requires that every guest be treated with respect.

Even if he really has no money and orders the most ordinary food, we still have to treat him well.

In this way, this person took advantage of the loophole.

The dishes arrived quickly, so the waiters didn't take it too seriously. But not long after they sat down, he did something that shocked everyone.

The man threw his bowl to the ground, pointed at the waiter next to him and said, "Send your boss over here. I have something to ask him."

The waiter seemed to be dealing with such a thing for the first time. He was stunned for a moment, and then quickly apologized.

"Sir, what's the matter with you? Let me see if I can help you solve it."

"You can't handle this matter. Call your boss over." The man looked very impatient and waved his hand to let the waiter go away.

"Sir, please tell me what's going on first so I can report it to our boss. If you don't tell me, we at Fengji Restaurant don't welcome troublemakers." The waiter's face turned cold, as if he felt that the man who came today had bad intentions.

"Well, since you insist that I say it out loud in public, then I'll satisfy you. The ingredients used in your Fengji Restaurant aren't very clean, are they?" The man looked angry and seemed to be well prepared.

"Sir, you can't say that. If you don't have evidence, it's slander."

As more and more people gathered around, the waiter's voice grew colder. He knew that if this matter wasn't handled properly, the reputation of the entire Fengji Restaurant would be ruined.

"I'm not just talking nonsense. Look for yourself to see if there are any bugs in this dish." The man pointed to a plate of stir-fried vegetables on the table with a very proud look on his face.

"Oh? Let me take a look." Here, the manager of Fengji Restaurant saw a lot of people gathered here and came over on his own initiative.

But he could tell at a glance that the bug wasn't in the vegetable. That kind of bug wouldn't grow in that kind of vegetable. He was afraid the person in front of him was here to cause trouble, and that he had put the bug there on purpose.

Seeing the situation on the field, the manager knew that this matter might not end well. He quickly and quietly instructed the waiter beside him to inform Gu Yanyue immediately.

Gu Yanyue, who had been practicing in the back, heard this and hurried over. Under her strict supervision in the kitchen, she was confident that such a thing would not happen. This person's intentions were probably not good, but she would not tolerate anyone being presumptuous here.

"I'm the owner here. If you have any questions, just ask me." Gu Yanyue walked over with a serious face, pushing through the crowd. "I think you put the bugs in there yourself. I know they shouldn't be in this kind of food."

"That's not certain. Maybe it fell in while washing other vegetables. Anyway, your place is not clean." The man remained steadfast in his words, not giving in at all. "Besides, what do you, a woman, know? I'm afraid you're just a facade. Stop pretending to be an expert here."

Gu Yanyue looked at the troublemaker and couldn't help but laugh. He actually dared to call himself an amateur. He must really want to die.

"Then I'll make you one right here. If I succeed, you'll apologize to me and the entire Fengji Restaurant. Do you dare?"

"Just do it! I want to see what tricks you can come up with." The man looked at Gu Yanyue's determined demeanor and seemed a little scared. However, there seemed to be some special reason that prevented him from retreating.

"Then I'd like to trouble you all to go to the kitchen and take a look. During the time I'm cooking, you can come to the kitchen at any time to check if the dishes are made by me, so as to prove my innocence." Gu Yanyue was very confident in her heart, with a slight smile on the corner of her mouth.

Soon, the same stir-fried vegetables that had been on the man's table were brought out from the kitchen. Not only were they the same, but they were even better in appearance, aroma, and flavor.

Everyone kept applauding and praising, Gu Yanyue's cooking skills were indeed superb, which was really admirable.

"What do you have to say now?" Gu Yanyue chuckled and looked at the person in front of her.

She had someone closely watch him, otherwise, just when she was about to finish the dish, this person tried to slip away into the crowd and escape. It was really infuriating.

"Even if it's done, it doesn't mean your kitchen is truly clean," the man muttered, still refusing to admit defeat. But his eyes were already extremely panicked, as if someone had discovered something serious.

"Boss, I found this on him." One of them pulled his waiter and took out a paper bag from his arms.

The deceased opened it in public, and there were some tiny remains of insects inside.
