Chapter 625 Courting Death
Liu Cuneng trembled when he heard that. He looked at the person who came in with surprise and fear.
Only after a few seconds did he come back to his senses. He struggled and begged, “I was wrong, I was wrong. I won’t do it again. Please forgive me this time. I really know I was wrong. Please forgive me.”
The man glanced at him disdainfully and said to the bodyguards in black, “Cripple his hand.”
A simple sentence had already determined Liu Cuneng’s fate.
Liu Cuneng’s pupils shrank as he struggled even harder.
If he was merely dismissed, he could still use his hands and cooking skills to earn money to support his family in the future.
Even if she couldn’t stay in City A any longer, he could still open a small restaurant in her hometown.
But now, his boss had ordered someone to cripple his hand. It was obvious that he was prepared to completely cut off his path of retreat. From today onwards, he would probably have no way to turn things around!
Liu Cuneng kept struggling and begging for mercy, but in the end, the man didn’t relent.
A moment later, a high-pitched scream came from inside the restaurant, scaring the passersby away. They hurriedly changed their direction and went around this terrifying place.
“It’s settled?”
“Cripple his hand and chase him out,” Li Yue said softly as he stood beside Dou Tianyi respectfully.
Dou Tianyi narrowed his eyes, his expression uncertain. After a long while, he said, “Too stupid.”
Li Yue’s heart trembled. Wasn’t he too stupid? He even dared to mess around in their young master’s shop, abusing his power for personal gain. If he didn’t mess with him, who would?
Actually, if it was just because of this incident, Liu Cuneng might not have ended up in such a miserable state. He was unlucky because he had underestimated the power of this small-time internet celebrity host and provoked someone he shouldn’t have.
Not only did he fail, but his subordinates also found out that he was related to Man Lou Xiang’s manager, Liu Dachui, who had used unscrupulous means to maliciously report the restaurant.
It was precisely because of this relationship that Liu Cuneng had a conflict with this young host. When he saw the heated discussions online, he wanted to use the restaurant’s external influence to resolve his personal grudges and damage the reputation of He Yi Restaurant.
Moreover, this wasn’t the most fatal part. The main reason why he ended up in such a miserable state was because he secretly handed over some of his best dishes to his nephew, Liu Dachui, and let him open the restaurant, Man Lou Xiang
Although that restaurant was nothing compared to He Yi Restaurant, it had its own rules.
Once all the chefs of the suitable restaurants were hired, their skills could not be spread outside unless they left their jobs.
Regardless of what happened after he left his job, he was not allowed to teach his craftsmanship to others. It was already a huge taboo for Liu Cuneng to knowingly commit such a crime. If he were to use public property for his personal use, he would really be digging his own grave. Dou Tianyi hated useless people, and he hated people who brought trouble to him. Liu Cuneng fit the criteria of the two of them at once, so the consequences could be imagined
Dou Tianyi would not waste too much effort on a useless person who had already been abandoned. After confirming that his subordinates had dealt with this parasite, Dou Tianyi shifted his attention to this influencer who had damaged their restaurant’s reputation.
The appearance of the Ancient Earth Cultural Research Institute caused many people to start discussing Su Yayan’s background. Previously, the research institute had personally verified the ancient Earth’s Chinese medicine ingredients, and now, the source of the food culture. Even though Su Yayan had repeatedly claimed that she was just an ordinary person, many people were still curious about her background.
