Chapter 527: You think Jing Li Xuan is Worried about Your Pursuit?

Though everyone started to gossip, Qiao Qing remained as calm as ever. It was as if she wasn’t the one who just dropped the bomb.

“So, can we please move on and get the surveillance videos?” Qiao Qing asked coldly.

Chen Lan, “Instantly!”

Before she could leave, a voice stopped her, “Wait a minute.”

Yi Shiqiong pursed her lips and dry smiled, “It’s honestly not a big deal. After all, it’s a big restaurant and there’s no guarantee that every employee is clean. I won’t pursue this any further.”

Her voice made Tian Zhen look at her weirdly, “Senior Yi?”

All the customers were now also confused. They were angry on her behalf just now, yet now, she was saying it wasn’t a big deal? The people started to whisper.

Qiao Qing snickered, “You won’t pursue this anymore? You think Jing Li Xuan is worried about your pursuit?”

She eyed Chen Lan, “Get the videos!”

“Yes!” Chen Lan didn’t hesitate as she left.

Yi Shiqiong began to subconsciously sweat. Finally, she realized what it meant to pick up a big rock just to drop it on your own foot.

She honestly just wanted to open up her own restaurant under this brand so she could be her own boss once she graduated.

After all, it was risky being a full-time author. Plus, her reputation had been tarnished and nobody wanted to help her anymore.

She didn’t want to just be a pawn in someone else’s business, so she figured that she should use her savings to invest in her own business.

She set her eyes on Jing Li Xuan a long time ago. She just never understood why they refused to open up another location when there was a line every day.

If she could open up her own shop, then she’d be able to make more money than working a corporate job.

She contacted her connections and found people who wanted to run this place with her, however, she didn’t expect Jing Li Xuan to say no!

She’s also heard some noise in the background that all four of the influential families here tried to get a piece of this business, but all failed.

But, she wasn’t asking for too much. She just wanted to franchise this place. She never wanted all of this to herself.

Plus, the four families tried to fully own this brand. Since Jing Li Xuan had its own powerful force, it was natural to tell those families no.

So, today, she pulled this trick in order to trap Jing Li Xuan’s management in a corner. If the manager wanted to continue their good reputation, then he had to agree to her request.

Who knew that halfway through, Qiao Qing would appear? Who knew that she would be the boss behind the scenes?!

Yi Shiqiong thought she had very bad luck to encounter Qiao Qing. This girl had crushed every dream she’s ever had.

By now, she’s seen through everything clearly. No matter what, she could not win against that girl.

As she realized this, she got out of her seat, “I got a message from my mentor just now. I have to leave now.”

Her words made everyone silent yet again. They all sensed that there was more to this.

Even Tian Zhen was puzzled as she rubbed her head and grabbed onto Yi Shiqiong, “Senior Yi, you’re leaving? We haven’t paid.”

Yi Shiqiong wanted to twist that pig’s head off. A star student who scored more than 700 on the exams? How?

As she struggled out of Tian Zhen’s grasp, the TV started to play the surveillance recording.

Yi Shiqiong was extremely nervous as she tried to run outside. When she reached the door, the security guard stopped her.

“Miss, you haven’t paid.”

Yi Shiqiong took out a couple of bills and shoved it in his hand, “THis should be enough.”

The security guard was sarcastic when he said, “I’m not a cashier. Please pay at the front. Manager Chen handles the payment.”

Yi Shiqiong, “...There’s someone else at my table. I’m out of time!”

The security guard ignored her and instead, stood his ground and refused to let her leave. Yi Shiqiong stomped her feet.
