Qiao Qing ignored him and merely frowned.
Since everyone now whined and showed sympathy, Yi Shiqiong started to weep and act pitiful.
Tian Zhen fought on her behalf, “What more can you say now?! Reality is right here in front of you, are you going to try and deny this? If you don’t want to take responsibility, I’m sure everyone here will pursue this! We are going to expose how your restaurant really is!”
The other customers agreed with them, “Exactly! We at least trusted you guys for so long! If you did it, admit to it! Address the problem and we may forgive you, given how good you’ve been in the past.”
“We live in the internet era. If we expose what happened here today, I’m sure you’re done for.”
“Exactly! Compensate those girls!”
“Compensate them!”
“…”
The noise inside the restaurant got louder and louder. Song Zixuan’s face looked a little concerned.
He said to Yi Shiqiong, “What do you want? An apology? Your oney back?”
Yi Shiqiong did all she could to hide her satisfaction, “I don’t need an apology nor money. I just want you to say yes to my request from a couple of days ago.”
Qiao Qing looked over to Song Zixuan. Everyone here was confused since they didn’t know what request Yi Shiqiong referred to.
Song Zixuan started to laugh. He then meaningfully looked over to Yi Shiqiong, “Ms. Yi, please forgive me for not understanding this. You found a cockroach in your food here, yet you still want the right to franchise Jing Li Xuan?”
Everyone froze. Nobody here was an idiot.
Naturally, they understood how much information there was in Song Zixuan’s statement.
He was right. She found a cockroach and complained, yet now she wants to be a partner of the restaurant?
What was wrong with her?
Yi Shiqiong grinned, “I enjoy the taste of the food and admire the recipes. That has nothing to do with how clean the place is. Once I set up my own shop, I will clean everything so well that nothing like this will ever happen.”
Everyone here once again exchanged glances. Somehow, they thought she made sense. Something did still feel off though.
Song Zixuan continued, “Ms. Yi, we have already explained the other day – even if we do decide to open another restaurant somewhere, we would be doing that internally. We do not accept external applications.”
“For what happened today, we can apologize, or compensate you through monetary means. However, if you want to operate using Jing Li Xuan’s name, sorry, we cannot let you do that.”
Yi Shiqiong responded, “As I said, I don’t need an apology nor money. I just want to be partners. How genuine are you about addressing customer concern if you cannot even agree to that?”
“If you continue to say no, then I will have to let everyone know about what happened today.”
“Though it’s normal to find flies in restaurants, Jing Li Xuan’s been the standard for cleanliness, and things like this were never expected to happen here. Once what happened today is made public, let’s see if your good reputation can sustain itself.”
She then took out her phone. All the employees there reacted like they had found their nemesis. Everyone, Song Zixuan included, turned to look at Qiao Qing for help.”
Just then, a cold voice arose, “Slow down.”
Yi Shiqiong’s finger froze in midair as everyone looked over to Qiao Qing.
