Chapter 141

As the crowd witnessed this, they understood everything clearly, especially with the evidence presented by the leading man.

From the leading man's words, they learned that Spring Bloom Pavilion had done similar things to many other restaurants, making them despise Spring Bloom Pavilion even more.

People are like this - when Spring Bloom Pavilion was popular, they felt honored to eat there and brag about it.

But now that they knew the truth, they immediately looked down on it.

"From now on, I'd rather die than eat at Spring Bloom Pavilion again! Not to mention getting it for free, I wouldn't even want to go there if they paid me!"

"I'm afraid eating their food might bring me bad luck!"

"I'm not going there either, that place is truly disgusting!"

"I never expected the young owner of Spring Bloom Pavilion to be such a person. Given their shared ancestry, the old owner probably isn't any better!"

"Phew!"Cheeck out latest novels at novelhall.com

"If anyone still goes to Spring Bloom Pavilion to eat, we'll spit at them!"

"Yes! Phew!"

...Amid the crowd's disdain, the few rhythm-leading men were also arrested by the officials.

"Be careful." Seeing Luo Ge standing outside, Gu Jinchen couldn't help but put his arm around her.

"Thank you to our two benefactors."

At that moment, the few men being arrested walked past them, and a voice rang out. The two turned to see it was none other than the skinny man.

Seeing the two looking at him, the skinny man smiled at them before leaving with the officials.

Seeing this, the couple Luo Ge and Gu Jinchen exchanged a glance, seeming to understand something.

This skinny man was named Chen Hou, a former thief who often hung around in the underground world.

Since he was a sworn brother with those rhythm-leading men, he couldn't be much better than them.

Those rhythm-leading men remained quite calm throughout the ordeal.

His brain couldn't possibly be that dull, and even if he was timid, he wouldn't have confessed after just a few scares.

"Thank you, Doctor Ming, for saving my life. I'm deeply grateful."

Doctor Ming waved his hand: "Old me came to visit Owner Gu today and happened to encounter this incident by chance. There's no need to dwell on it."

This was a polite refusal, implying that he only intervened because of Gu Jinchen and his group. So Wang Bai should be thanking Gu Jinchen and Luo Ge instead.

As a smart man, Wang Bai understood.

"You're right, Doctor. Thank you, Owner Gu and Madam Luo."

"I will definitely visit you another day. But today I have matters to attend to at home, so I must take my leave now."

His situation with the poisonous medicine was clearly unrelated to those who harmed First Class Pavilion, so he had to return home to deal with whoever was trying to kill him.

Hearing this, Luo Ge and her husband understood: "Very well, take care on your way."

"Yes."

Seeing Wang Bai leave, Lin Guest was not as courteous, for he had suffered an injustice by nearly losing his life over a mere meal.

But Luo Ge and her husband had shown good grace in their handling of the matter, so Lin Guest happily accepted their gesture.

"Well, I won't stand on ceremony then. Remember, you've promised future meals for free."

Seeing Lin Guest's frankness, Luo Ge and her husband smiled: "Of course."

The remaining crowd, seeing how properly Luo Ge and her husband treated the wronged guests, nodded in approval.

Their good impression of First Class Pavilion deepened further.

With the matter resolved, the crowd dispersed.

This incident spread quickly through their gossip.

One tells ten, ten tells a hundred.

The spread of word-of-mouth is the most powerful, and within a day, the news about Spring Bloom Pavilion had spread throughout the entire provincial capital.

Their business plummeted overnight.

In contrast, First Class Pavilion benefited from the misfortune and gained even more renown.
