Chapter 165 Being Manipulated, Ah Ping's Achilles' Heel



Therefore, Good Taste Restaurant is facing the crisis of closing down. It can either pay a lot of fines and go through a health inspection again before it can reopen for business.

The owner of the Good Taste Restaurant was also arrested. The customers who got sick from the food were required to pay for medical expenses and also to bear legal responsibility.

Overnight, anyone passing by the Delicious Restaurant would spit at the entrance!

As Li Junsheng's kitchen staff could see, after the closure of Hao Zi Wei Restaurant, the number of customers at Li Junsheng's restaurant seemed to be returning to its peak.

This exhausted Li Junsheng and his children; the shop simply didn't have enough staff.

Tang Liang, in particular, was eagerly hoping that Li Junsheng would open a food processing plant as soon as possible, otherwise he simply couldn't handle both the food delivery and the dine-in business.

Every day, the spatula flies out sparks as I swing it around!

In the evening, Li Junsheng and his family returned home, ate a simple meal, and then prepared to wash up and rest.

There are many people in the family, so there is a queue for washing up, which usually takes one or two hours.

In Li Xiaoyu's bedroom, after washing up, she was curiously looking out the window at the downstairs!

"Xiaoyu, what are you looking at?"

Out of curiosity, A-Ping asked a question.

Li Xiaoyu pointed to a figure downstairs and said, "Oh, there's someone standing down there. We've seen him standing there since we got home, and he's still standing there without moving. I'm a little scared."

"Maybe it's some kind of abnormal person, waiting to get close and harm others!"

These days, it's not uncommon for homeless people to steal things. Sometimes, if someone in a family has a mentally ill person who can't be managed properly, they might end up like this.

Aping walked to the window and glanced out, her heart tightening instantly.

Because the person standing downstairs was none other than the mysterious man that A-Ping had seen a few days ago.

Aping quickly glanced at Li Xiaoyu, hoping that Li Xiaoyu hadn't noticed anything amiss on her face.

He comforted her, saying, "Don't worry, we're not going out tonight anyway. We'll go out together tomorrow. Draw the curtains and get some rest!"

As she spoke, A-Ping took the initiative to draw the curtains. Li Xiaoyu nodded obediently to A-Ping, and the two then went to bed.

Perhaps because she was too tired during the day, Li Xiaoyu fell asleep in no time.

Listening to her even breathing, A-Ping opened her eyes in the darkness, tiptoed out of the quilt, and carefully left the Li family's house, heading straight downstairs.

Once downstairs, A-Ping hurriedly said to the man waiting nearby, "Why are you here? Waiting downstairs at Li Junsheng's house has caught the attention of Li Junsheng's daughter."

Aping's tone carried a displeasure that she herself was unaware of.

She doesn't like these people interfering with her current life.

Ah Ping just hasn't realized this thought in her mind yet!

The man's tone was also simmering with anger. As soon as he saw A-Ping, he berated her, "If I hadn't come, were you really planning to work as a waitress at Li Junsheng's restaurant for the rest of your life? Li Junsheng gathered a group of people to cause hygiene problems at Hao Zi Wei Restaurant, why didn't you notify our own people in advance?"

Aping knew this person would ask that question, and she had already prepared her answer.

“I didn’t know about this. Li Junsheng and his son acted in secret and kept it very confidential.”

The man didn't know whether Ah Ping truly didn't know or wasn't on Tiger's side!

Anyway, he figured the latter was more likely.

The man glared at Ah Ping and said irritably, "Now the restaurant has been shut down, and one of our own people has been arrested. We can't pay to bail him out or reopen the restaurant. Tiger is really angry about this."

“He invested so much money in this restaurant, but he hasn’t made a single penny back. You should teach Li Junsheng a lesson and avenge Brother Hu.”

A-Ping pursed her lips and said softly, "There haven't been any good opportunities. That Li Junsheng is really a tough nut to crack."

The man sneered, completely ignoring Ah Ping's explanation.

"What do you mean by a tough nut to crack? I think you just haven't put in the effort. Hurry up, lure him in and send him to jail."

"Once we get to prison, Tiger can make all the brothers there wish they were dead with just a word. You won't have to lift a finger. Just strip naked and lie on his bed, won't you?"

Upon hearing this, A-Ping frowned, her face showing displeasure.

This person is always disrespectful to himself; he looks down on himself.

Under the streetlights, the man with the broken eyebrow saw that Ah Ping seemed a little unconvinced, so he threatened and warned her, "Do you still want to gain more real power? If you do, then you'd better work for Brother Tiger."

But……

Aping looked hesitant and conflicted, after all, the Li family had treated her very well, especially Li Junsheng, who also respected her.

Ah Ping felt a pang of reluctance to send Li Junsheng to prison to be tormented by Tiger's underlings.

What good people could Tiger's underlings be in prison? They're all vicious thugs. If Li Junsheng goes in and falls into their hands, he's sure to have a bad end!

"Li Junsheng is a law-abiding citizen, so it's difficult to get him in. Let's just shut his shop down; that would be a form of revenge."

Ah Ping softened and wanted Tiger to let Li Junsheng go.

To everyone's surprise, the man looked at Ah Ping with disbelief and then used her vulnerability to threaten her.

"You think ruining his shop is enough? How can you say something like that? Then Tiger might as well help your mistress's mother too. Do you even want your mother to live? If you do, then do as Tiger says."

A-Ping's heart tightened, and she immediately became worried about her mother who was receiving treatment in Gangcheng.

She didn't have that much money, so she had no choice but to ask Tiger for help. He took advantage of her weakness and made her do things for him!

She knew she couldn't let her mother's medical expenses stop, so A-Ping could only whisper to the man, "Okay, I'll find a way to get Li Junsheng in."

The man with the broken eyebrow nodded in satisfaction, and when he looked at A-Ping, his eyes revealed undisguised smugness.

"That's more like it. As long as you listen to me, your mother can continue to receive treatment in Hong Kong. Remember to hurry, Tiger's patience is running out!"

"Then, after it's all done, can I see my mom? I haven't seen her in a long time, and I don't know how she is now."

Ah Ping's eyes were full of pleading; she only wanted to see her mother once, and she didn't want anything else.

Even though Ah Ping had already humbled herself to the extreme, the man showed no mercy and only sneered, "Let's see how you perform. If you do well and make Brother Tiger happy, maybe he'll let you meet your mother."

Aping lowered her eyes, feeling very uncomfortable.

Seeing that Ah Ping was worried about her seriously ill mother and dared not resist, the man left satisfied.

Even if it's just for her mother, Ah Ping would still attack Li Junsheng!

There was no need for him to warn or urge them anymore.

"Hmph, that old hag is really useful. Just mention her and Ah Ping immediately becomes obedient!"

The man muttered a couple of words, lit a cigarette, and then strode away.
