Chapter 40 Confrontation
As soon as she said this, everyone present subconsciously began to shake their heads.
The man was so choked by her words that he didn't know what to say, so he could only keep "I, I, I." After a long time, he didn't answer one, but his face became redder and even a little obsessed with his eyes looking at An Wan.
It was a smarter man behind him who came to his senses and quickly pushed him away, stood straight in front of An Wan, making excuses with righteousness: "The girl has been staying in the store all the time. We are here just when you are not here, but are there any big problems?"
An Wan did not always stay in the store, so after hearing his quibbling, she just smiled faintly and nodded according to his words: "Okay, your statement is reasonable, so let's talk about something else."
Although the man also admired An Wan's appearance, he deeply remembered the purpose of their group coming. So after An Wan's eyes floated to the shop behind him, he warned her nervously: "Do you want to bring us to the store to solve this problem privately, and then use other means?"
Although An Wan did not show anything, the fear on the man's face and An Wan's calmness formed a wonderful contrast, which made the audience look at An Wan with some doubts.
An Wan raised her eyebrows in surprise and asked, "I didn't say I wanted to go in... For the sake of the reputation of the hotel, I must solve this problem in public. I must not just go there in a daze and leave a bad impression on my store."
Speaking of this, she turned her head generously and glanced at the crowd present, and spoke loudly: "Please don't leave. I'll go in and get the account book and evidence, and take it out to confront them... If it is finally proved that there is no problem in my store, I will give you twenty copper coins to you."
The twenty copper plates were not a lot of money for everyone present, but many of them had planned to watch the exhibition of the matter. Now that they saw that they still had money, they stood there more happily and steadily, and started to ask An Wan to come in quickly. They must figure out the true situation of the matter well.
Why is An Wan so confident in her attitude? She even brought out the slogan "If I win, I will give you money." Is there really evidence to prove her innocence?
The men and women were a little uneasy and hurriedly looked at each other for a few moments.
The man who jumped out later was the most stable. He stood in front of others and angrily spitted at An Wan: "There are so many people who have witnessed it. I will tear your hypocritical face to pieces and give my brother a life!"
"Okay." An Wan looked at him with her eyes down, her eyes clear, and even the man who had originally sneered at An Wan's beauty could not help but be stunned for a moment, before he regained his angry appearance and stared at An Wan and walked into the hotel.
After entering, An Wan asked Song Qin, Song Jian and Nie Ying to take out the account book for the past few days together and then took it outside the store.
Just in front of everyone, she waved her hand and raised her thick account book and explained to everyone: "This is the account book in the store, which records the number of people eating every day and the food ordered. I originally wanted to use this to calculate which dishes are popular, what dishes are used to order when my friends come together, and what they eat when they come alone."
This was the first time that the onlookers heard An Wan’s statement, and they all looked surprised on their faces.
An Wan bent one of her arms, placed a thick account book on it, then turned it open, glanced at the contents on it, and asked, "When did you come to eat yesterday?"
Before coming here, the person who hired them said that the person in charge of the store was just a delicate little girl and didn't know anything at all. They just had to come over and threaten a few words.
But now it seems that An Wan doesn't feel "delicate" or "knowing nothing". She even looks a little cunning in her eyes, and the account book in her hand is also rumbling.
The man actually didn't come to eat yesterday, but everyone around him was staring at him. He was in a hurry to make up, so he could only barely make up a time point: "It was probably noon yesterday, and I came with a few friends, and I forgot what I ate."
"Well, let's take a look." An Wan casually glanced at the man's expression. Seeing his gaze floating, her mind became much more stable. She continued to maintain a confident expression and moved the paper to the position of yesterday noon: "Ten tables of people came to have dinner yesterday afternoon, but several of them were one or two people. They should not be you and your friends."
Just as An Wan was about to continue talking, she suddenly heard a noisy sound from the crowd next to her. She looked up and saw that it was Luo Yelin.
When they saw Prince Ye, people gave way to him, which successfully made Luo Yelin walk to An Wan without any obstacles.
He was not sure what he had given birth now, but looking at the coffin in the middle of the crowd and the men and women who were crying and staring at An Wan, he also felt that the atmosphere was wrong.
So he looked around at An Wan and these men and women, and in the end he did not rush to stand, but turned his attention to a crowd of onlookers: "What happened?"
After receiving the attention of the prince, the onlookers immediately stood up and diligently explained the Long Quzhi to Luo Yelin.
Although this person is not very clear about the cause and effect, he still stands on An Wan's side by looking for trouble, so when he explains the situation to Luo Yelin, he will unconsciously reveal some of his own feelings.
Some people who didn't like An Wan's appearance very much, or felt that there was no good thing in the store, were a little dissatisfied. They repeatedly spoke to interrupt the person and explained An Wan's mistakes to Luo Yelin.
However, Luo Yelin didn't listen to their words. After he roughly understood the whole story of the matter, he stood back in the center of the crowd: "I didn't expect that I could encounter such a thing... Let's do this, I will be a party and watch you debate. In the end, whoever got the result, I will take the loser to the yamen to receive the punishment."
Luo Yelin said this passage fairly and reasonably, and it was more of a bystander among them. Even diners who knew that Luo Yelin and An Wan had a good relationship could not find fault.
An Wan smiled generously at Luo Yelin's words: "Okay, thank you, Prince!"
But compared to An Wan's calmness, the men and women who came over looked at each other, and the atmosphere between them was very strange.
