Chapter 315 The Blackmailer
"Yeah." Su Qiaoer glanced at them calmly, "Do you know why I called you here?"
"I don't know." Several people spoke respectfully.
"What I want you to do is very simple." Su Qiao'er said, throwing a packet of medicine powder in front of them, "You just need to put this packet of medicine powder into Lin Wanqing's restaurant, and that's it."
"Aunt, this..." Several people looked at the medicine powder on the ground, feeling a little hesitant.
After all, this is poisoning!
If you are discovered, you will lose your head!
"What?" Su Qiao'er looked at the hesitation of the few people, her face full of ruthlessness, "You don't want to consider your family anymore?"
When they heard this, their faces turned pale instantly.
Their families are in Su Qiaoer's hands. If they don't do what Su Qiaoer says, their families will die.
"We servants will definitely do as our aunt says!" As they spoke, they knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Su Qiaoer.
"Very good." Su Qiaoer nodded with satisfaction. "As long as you handle this matter well, I will naturally not treat your family unfairly."
"Thank you, auntie!" Several people spoke with tears of gratitude.
"Okay, you guys can go down." Su Qiaoer waved her hand lightly.
Upon hearing this, several people breathed a sigh of relief and turned to leave Su Qiaoer's yard.
Su Qiaoer looked at their backs as they left, a satisfied smile on her face.
This time, she wants to see how Lin Wanqing turns things around!
……
Lin Wanqing looked at the restaurant in front of him with a satisfied smile on his face.
The restaurant's business has been getting better and better during this period, and it is almost full every day.
Looking at the endless stream of guests, Lin Wanqing felt happy.
Suddenly, a guard came in hurriedly, "Princess, something happened."
"What's wrong?" Lin Wanqing looked at the guard and spoke lightly.
"Something happened in the restaurant," the guard said, and presented a confession to Lin Wanqing. "Several guests got sick from eating. Here are their confessions."
Lin Wanqing looked at the confession with a frown.
Have a stomachache?
There is absolutely no problem with the hygiene of the restaurant she runs.
Then... someone poisoned me!
Lin Wanqing's eyes turned cold in an instant.
"Check." She said in a deep voice.
"Yes." The guard said respectfully and turned to leave.
Lin Wanqing looked at the confession on the ground with a cold look in his eyes.
She wanted to see who was going to poison her!
Lin Wanqing raised her foot and walked towards the backyard of the restaurant.
In the backyard, several people with pale faces, holding their stomachs, were lying on the ground groaning.
Seeing Lin Wanqing coming, several people instantly became alert, struggled to get up from the ground, and rushed towards Lin Wanqing.
"You are such a ruthless businessman! You actually gave us poisonous food! You are so heartless!"
"That's right! How could you do such a thing in a restaurant you own? You must give us an explanation!"
"Yes! Pay the money! Pay the money! Otherwise we will sue you!"
Several people surrounded Lin Wanqing, shouting at each other.
Lin Wanqing looked at the people in front of him without a trace of panic on his face.
"Everyone, please be patient," Lin Wanqing said calmly. "Since you all said you got sick eating in my restaurant, I will definitely give you an explanation."
"Explain? How are you going to explain?" one of them said angrily, "We've really upset our stomachs! This is a matter of life and death!"
"That's right! You must give us an explanation!" others echoed.
Lin Wanqing looked at them with a sneer on his face.
She wanted to see who was behind these people!
"Someone, go get the doctor." Lin Wanqing said in a deep voice.
She wanted to see whether these people really had stomach problems or were being instigated to blackmail her!
"Yes." The guard said respectfully and turned to leave.
Lin Wanqing looked at the people in front of him and said coldly: "Everyone should sit down first. When the doctor comes, everything will naturally come to light."
After hearing this, several people hesitated for a moment, but finally sat down obediently.
They looked at Lin Wanqing's aura and felt a little scared.
If this matter is exposed, they will go to jail!
Soon, the doctor was called in.
He checked several people and frowned.
"Doctor, how are they?" Lin Wanqing looked at the doctor and spoke lightly.
"To answer your question, Princess, they did have stomach upsets," the doctor said, glancing at them. "But... they were also poisoned."
"Poisoned?" Lin Wanqing raised his eyebrows when he heard this.
"They were poisoned by arsenic," the doctor said, pulling out a pack of silver needles from his medicine box. "These are the needles I used to examine their vomit. They're stained with arsenic."
"Arsenic?" Lin Wanqing's face darkened when he heard this.
How could there be arsenic in her restaurant?
At this moment, the doctor suddenly looked at the few people and said, "Tell me the truth, who ordered you to frame the princess?"
When they heard this, their faces turned pale instantly.
"What... what arsenic?" one of them said tremblingly, "We don't know what arsenic is! We just came here to eat, who knew we'd get sick?"
"Yes! Yes!" others echoed, "We are innocent!"
Lin Wanqing looked at their reactions and narrowed his eyes slightly.
They don't look like they are lying.
Don’t they really know that they are poisoned?
"You really don't know?" Lin Wanqing said in a deep voice.
"We don't know!" Several people shook their heads frantically. "We really don't know! If we knew, why would we come here to eat?"
Lin Wanqing looked at them in silence.
What they said does make sense.
If they knew they were poisoned, they would naturally not come here to eat.
But...if it wasn't them, then who poisoned her restaurant?
Lin Wanqing's brows were tightly furrowed.
At this time, a burst of rapid footsteps came.
Lu Shengyuan walked in with an anxious look on his face.
"Qingqing, are you okay?" Lu Shengyuan walked to Lin Wanqing's side and looked her up and down, fearing that she might be hurt.
Lin Wanqing looked at him and felt warm in her heart.
"I'm fine." Lin Wanqing said softly, "It's these people who have been poisoned."
"Poisoned?" Lu Shengyuan's face darkened when he heard that.
He looked at the people on the ground, a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
"Who poisoned me?" Lu Shengyuan asked in a deep voice, exuding a cold aura.
Several people felt Lu Shengyuan's murderous intent and began to tremble involuntarily.
"I...we didn't know..." One of them said tremblingly, "We just came here to have a meal, who knew we would be poisoned?"
"Yeah...we really don't know..." others echoed.
