Chapter 197 - 197 Amended 197 Thoroughly Clearing the False Accusation

197: Amended: Chapter 197 Thoroughly Clearing the False Accusation 197: Amended: Chapter 197 Thoroughly Clearing the False Accusation The people on the stage saw the situation and burst into laughter without restraint, which made Chen Zhaofeng even more furious.

Juxian Inn hasn’t gone out of business yet, and these people are already changing their allegiance?

But don’t be happy too early.

Whether Jiji can come back to life is still a question.

You’re eager to mock us now, be careful not to shoot yourself in the foot.

As Chen Zhaofeng sat there sullenly, suppressing his anger and shame, Zhou Dong continued, “After much deliberation, the only one who holds a grudge against us, the only one who finds Jiji displeasing, is our competitor!”

“But the malicious slander and baseless accusations from our competitor can’t defeat us!

With your support, Jiji will only get better!”

Everyone understands the principle of rivalry among peers, so it was quite obvious who Zhou Dong was referring to as “the competitor”.

Everyone in the audience turned their heads to stare at Chen Zhaofeng, considering Zhou Dong’s words.

Before Jiji opened, Juxian Inn was thriving, a standout in the dining industry in Longhe Town.

But after Jiji’s arrival, Juxian Inn started to decline, even showing signs of downfall.

It made sense if Juxian Inn had deliberately spread rumors.

Seeing everyone both onstage and offstage staring at him, Chen Zhaofeng’s shame and anger grew more intense, threatening to erupt.

If he lost his temper now, wouldn’t it be as good as admitting his guilt in front of everyone?

Wouldn’t everyone see that he was narrow-minded and had maliciously slandered them?

In this way, how could Juxian Inn continue to stand in Longhe Town?

Chen Zhaofeng had to force a smile, pretending not to understand the situation.

Seeing his act of playing dumb, Zhou Dong added fuel to the fire, saying, “I hope everyone understands that Jiji has been wronged.

The so-called use of hormone-fed chickens is a shameful act done by our competitor because they can’t compete with us!”

Zhou Dong’s impassioned speech regained the trust of many old customers and made more unsuspecting onlookers start to believe in him.

After all, such malicious rumors and anonymous reports are commonplace in TV dramas and not so hard to believe in real life.

Seeing more people in the audience still holding skeptical views, Wu Xiaoyu ordered the waiters to bring out four roast chickens.

Then, taking the microphone from Zhou Dong, she said, “Everyone, these two roast chickens are made from the free-range chickens I raised.”

“Now, to prove our innocence, Zhou Dong and I will eat them in front of everyone.

Also, any dish in the store that you suspect, you can let us taste it.”

After saying this, Wu Xiaoyu and Zhou Dong each grabbed a roast chicken and started devouring it furiously.

The aroma of chicken filled the air, tantalizing everyone’s taste buds, making some people unconsciously drool.

The old foodies in town, seeing this, couldn’t resist the temptation, looking at their watches and asking, “What time does the business officially start?”

With his mouth full of chicken, Zhou Dong mumbled, “At noon, twelve o’clock, we officially reopen, and today everything is…

forty percent off!”

Twelve o’clock?

That means they still had to wait another twenty minutes?

Some of the gluttonous old foodies, unable to resist the torture of their hungry stomachs, rushed to Wu Xiaoyu and Zhou Dong, tearing off pieces of roast chicken.

The restaurant owners on the stage were dumbfounded.

This…

this is too exaggerated!

But the aroma of the chicken was too tantalizing.

Is that really chicken meat?

As everyone stared at the roast chicken in Wu Xiaoyu and Zhou Dong’s hands with glowing eyes, only Chen Zhaofeng had a long face, his expression grim and his anger beyond words.

These…

these people believed in Jiji so easily?

What secret does this free-range chicken hold to be so enticing?

Am I going to lose again?

The onlookers below tried to repress their saliva, staring incredulously at the old foodies rushing for the food.

Are these people hired by Jiji to act?

But why can’t my mouth stop drooling?

In no time, the four roast chickens were completely devoured by a few people.

Some onlookers started to regret not rushing up to taste them earlier.

Zhou Dong burped, looked at the time, and smiled, “It’s almost time for the grand reopening.

We hope everyone will come!

Today everything is forty percent off…”

The crowd, who had just been annoyed at missing out on the food, now felt like finding an oasis in the desert, and someone shouted, “Is there more roast chicken available today?”

Seeing that everyone was asking about the food in the store, Wu Xiaoyu knew that many of them had already believed that the rumors about Jiji were baseless lies.

But how to gain the trust of the rest?

Perhaps only time will tell!

When the rumors about Jiji fade, and the place is packed again, the remaining doubts will naturally disappear!

As many were eager to rush into Jiji, three people walked over from a distance, with Mayor Ma in the middle.

Is he coming to my store?

Wu Xiaoyu was puzzled but quickly stepped forward to greet him with a smile, “Mayor Ma, you are here to…”

Everyone saw Wu Xiaoyu running off the stage and turned to look at him, only to find out that the person approaching was indeed the Mayor.

Seeing this, Chen Zhaofeng felt even more disheartened.

When Juxian Inn celebrated its tenth anniversary, he specifically invited Ma Zhenbang, then the deputy mayor, but was declined.

He held some grudges back then, but later learned that Ma Zhenbang never attended commercial events, which made him let go and even respect Ma Fangqi a little.

But why did he show up today?

Is he here to support Wu Xiaoyu?

Or is it just a coincidence?

Chen Zhaofeng stared intently at the two.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries with Wu Xiaoyu, Ma Fangqi went up to the stage.

Chen Zhaofeng and others tried to greet him but were stopped.

Taking the microphone, Ma Fangqi explained, “I’m not here to support anyone, nor am I here for a free meal!

I’m here to clarify a fact and dispel rumors!”

“I know that recently, there have been rumors that Jiji’s free-range chickens are injected with growth hormones.

Some even reported this to the livestock quarantine station.

After an investigation by the quarantine station, this is completely unfounded, a case of framing.”

Seeing the mayor personally dispel the rumors, people believed Zhou Dong’s words even more, realizing that their competitor was using malicious competition tactics to slander and libel them!

Seeing everyone believe in his clarification, Ma Fangqi continued, “All the free-range chickens used by Jiji are sourced from Daxin Village.

As you all know, Daxin Village is the only poor village in our town.”

“Someone came up with the idea of raising free-range chickens to get rich.

It wasn’t easy!

How can we let this chicken farm go bankrupt due to malicious slander?”

Everyone on and off the stage applauded.

Ma Fangqi waved his hand and smiled, “That’s all I have to say!

I hope everyone won’t believe in or spread rumors!”

After finishing his speech, Ma Fangqi stepped off the stage and prepared to leave.

Wu Xiaoyu hurriedly stepped forward with a smile, “We’re about to serve food.

Please stay and join us for a meal!”

“No need!

I’m not here for a free meal!” Ma Fangqi said and left with his entourage.

Wu Xiaoyu was puzzled.

Why did Ma Fangqi help her so much and not even stay for a meal?

That didn’t make sense!

She had only met him once, and although she left a good impression, it didn’t warrant this level of help, did it?
