Chapter 199 - Unknown guest

After talking with Louzheng's girlfriend and Fu Jinhai for a while, Wang Ming checked the books, then left the restaurant. He hoped that Fu Jinhai had learnt from this experience and that he wouldn't make such a mistake again. He had also learnt a great lesson from this incident, even though he had complete trust in Louzheng and Gao Xingjuan, he still had to monitor the restaurant's performance. He hoped that next time if Louzheng faces a problem he can't solve that he contacts him.

Wang Ming thought that Zhong Guoliang's tricks had hurt the restaurant's reputation, but when he stepped out of the restaurant. He saw a crowd wait in front of his restaurant. When Wang Ming looked at the books earlier, he had only seen that the sales numbers had gone down. He didn't consider how many pork belly dishes they have to sell to make up that number.

Grabbing a chair, Wang Ming stood on the chair and shouted as loud as he could, but the amount of noise the group produced deafened him. But after roaring as loud as he could, he got the attention of the people in front of him. Which was enough as the people further down the line one after another noticed him.

"Hello everybody, I'm the owner of Wang's Family Restaurant. We at the Wang's family restaurant caught someone in our staff has sabotaged our dishes this entire week." When Wang Ming mentioned someone had sabotaged the dishes, the crowd talked with each other again, most assumed the worst immediately that someone had poisoned the food. Seeing the crowd getting rowdy again, Wang Ming clapped his hands to get their attention.

"Don't worry, the sabotage only made the dish taste worse, the spice used has no adverse effects on your health, even though it doesn't affect your health it is still unacceptable. I, as the owner of this restaurant, can only bow my head to any of you that has eaten the sabotaged food."

Most of the people there didn't know what to think. Many of them eat at this restaurant daily. Even though some thought the food tasted different the last few days, they didn't care that much as the dish still tasted good overall. One after another, the crowd shouted back at Wang Ming. "We forgive you! We forgive you!"

"Thank you everyone, as compensation. The restaurant will have a 25% discount from tomorrow until the end of next week! We unfortunately have to close today, as we don't have any meat to sell."

After saying his piece, Wang Ming left the place and went to the shops he had bought. The crowd tried to stop him when he walked past. As they truly admire Wang Ming, who's become a celebrity in Liaoling city. Even though most people hadn't seen his face, they had all heard about the name Wang Ming and his restaurant. Uncle Fu and Uncle Hou had used a lot of money to spread the name of his restaurant.

Some women tried to hug Wang Ming, while the even bolder ones tried to grab his hand and put it on their b.r.e.a.s.ts and a.s.s. The most crazy chick even tried to put his hand inside her skirt, luckily he got away before anything happened. When they saw Wang Ming run away, before they could just sigh, they had lost a great opportunity, Wang Ming's speed left them all in the dust.

Running for a few minutes, Wang Ming had to stop his body started aching only after a minute of running. He thought that his body had recovered more than this, but this just served as a testament to how badly he had been hurt.

Walking the rest of the way, Wang Ming soon arrived at the stores he had bought. Peering inside the flower shop, Wang Ming saw they had removed everything from the shop. He appreciated the efficiency of Wan Ya. She had really moved out in only 2 days.

Wang Ming could hear constructions sounds from the store next door, which is the one Weng Ping formally owned. Entering the shop, Wang Ming saw Kang Xiang, who was taking down the wall which divided Weng Ping's and Wan Ya's shop. "Wang Ming! I heard you got admitted to the hospital! How are you here already? I wanted to finish your shop fast so that when you got discharged, everything would be ready for you."

"Who did you hear that from? It was just a minor injury. The doctor just wanted me to rest the night at the hospital." Wang Ming had told no one about him entering the hospital and Kang Xiang doesn't know any of his girls, so how could he know?

"Don't you know our former school flower is a nurse at the hospital? She told me you were badly hurt and might even die! She told everyone in our class about it, she also invited me and my wife to the class reunion next month, you have to go or else I won't."

Wang Ming didn't want to go to the class reunion at all, as it would only be a waste of time. He only had Kang Xiang as a friend from school. All the others didn't interact with him more than necessary as they thought Wang Ming was weird for working at the kitchen all the time. Wang Ming wasn't exactly bullied, but he was the outcast of the class. Most thought that he was c.o.c.ky, so they didn't like him.

"Fine, just for you."

Kang Xiang didn't want to go either as he's only a poor carpenter, but now with Wang Ming's status, he had to go. He wanted to see his classmates reaction when they see how successful Wang Ming is now. "You just want to see the school flower again, don't you? I still remember you eyeing her, but back then you were just a nerd who only worked in the kitchen. Now I think you might have a chance."

"Did I never tell you Kang Xiang? I have a girlfriend, one of them even has a beautiful daughter who I regard as my own."

"One of them?" Kang Xiang thought that he might have heard wrong. But when he saw Wang Ming nod, Kang Xiang felt disgusted, he didn't think that Wang Ming was a playboy. Toying with a girl's feelings like that. "Wang Ming, I think you should choose one, playing with the girl's feelings like that isn't good, it will come back to bite you in the a.s.s."

"What? I'm not playing with them, they all know each other and are good sisters. I, even slept with them yesterday."

"Are you insane Wang Ming, what are you even talking about?" Kang Xiang couldn't believe his ears, he thought that Wang Ming had lost it. "I promise I'm not joking, if you want to meet them then I will take them to the reunion." Wang Ming then took out his phone to show Kang Xiang pictures of his girlfriends, he hadn't taken any pictures of them but they all had profiles on social media.

Kang Xiang didn't believe Wang Ming at all, even though Wang Ming's his great friend something like this, was too unbelievable. Especially when he saw how pretty the women were, They're beauty could easily rival any model. But on Lang Lin's page Kang Xiang saw a picture she had posted with Wang Ming.

Wang Ming hadn't even seen this picture before: as he doesn't browse social media, Lang Lin had sneakily taken a picture of them when they were visiting Su Huiliang's place. She had even added a caption saying 'together with my crush'.

Kang Xiang had no other option than to believe Wang Ming now, he wanted to strangle Wang Ming for being so lucky. He wished he could also be as lucky, but then immediately purged the thought. If his wife even got a whiff of him being unfaithful, he knew she would snap off his little brother. His wife had also stuck with him through thick and thin. He wouldn't do anything to hurt her.

Wang Ming and Kang Xiang talked some more, but were interrupted by a man wearing an expensive Armani suit, who they had never seen before, that entered the shop. He looked around for a moment and then said. "Is Wang Ming here?"
