Chapter 257 The Guest Wakes Up
"Stop lying through your teeth." Someone who had witnessed the man foaming at the mouth and collapsing said sarcastically, "I saw it with my own eyes. That man was fine at first, but he suddenly collapsed after eating a few bites."
"There must be something wrong with the food at Crescent Moon Restaurant."
"I've heard that some restaurants buy diseased poultry to save money. What do you think of Crescent Moon Restaurant...?"
"I hope this young master understands what it means to have trouble coming from the mouth." Chen Feng looked at the customer who said he wanted to buy diseased poultry, his expression icy.
Although everything currently points to Crescent Moon Tower, Chen Feng still trusts his own restaurant and the staff he personally hired.
The customer was startled and dared not say anything more; whether he secretly cursed in his heart is unknown.
Chen Feng said to the man who was still looking at him angrily, "Let me see him."
"No way." The man refused Chen Feng. "My brother is already in this state. What if you hurt him too?"
Seeing that the man was unwilling, Chen Feng said again, "Then let's ask a doctor to take a look."
The man refused even faster this time, saying, "What if you deny it after we leave... No, I think that's exactly what you're thinking."
"You're trying to get us away on purpose, and then deny it."
Chen Feng noticed that the man's expression was slightly unnatural when he refused, and... Chen Feng narrowed his eyes. Logically speaking, if the man cared so much about his friend, he should have called a doctor immediately after the friend fainted, instead of making a fuss here.
Chen Feng had an idea in mind, but he wasn't sure yet, so he said to the man, "Could I observe him for a bit? You can watch over him from the side if you're worried."
"No." The man still refused.
"I think his condition is already very bad. What if something bad happens if we don't call a doctor soon?"
"Hmph, don't try to change the subject. If you don't give us an explanation for this, we're not leaving your restaurant."
When Chen Feng said that the person's condition was not good, the man's expression showed no worry whatsoever, and he didn't even glance at him, as if he was certain that his friend would be alright.
He was unwilling to see a doctor but was certain the person would be fine, unless… Chen Feng became even more certain of his earlier thought.
Chen Feng pretended to hesitate and said, "If you don't let me see for myself, how will I know if you're lying to me?"
"Hmph," the man said, "The other guests in the Crescent Moon Pavilion all witnessed what happened. Do you think I would lie?"
Chen Feng seemed to believe him and said, "If the incident really happened because of our Crescent Moon Pavilion, I will naturally take full responsibility and will compensate you in full."
The man's expression shifted. This Crescent Moon Pavilion was so popular; it wouldn't be bad to take advantage of the situation and extort more money. "Then hurry up and hurry up."
"But you have to let me take a look first. I'll only take responsibility after I've confirmed that it's our fault. If you don't let me see it, why should I admit it?"
The man gritted his teeth and said, "Okay."
The man stepped aside to let Chen Feng pass. Chen Feng squatted down in front of the customer, who was lying motionless on the ground with white foam around his mouth and his eyes tightly closed. He looked very ill.
However… Chen Feng curled the corners of his mouth and ordered the waiter to fetch a needle.
After Chen Feng took the needle from the shop assistant, the man sensed something was wrong: "What are you going to do?"
“I also have some knowledge of medicine, and I have encountered this situation before.”
"No, who knows if you're telling the truth or not, or if you'll take the opportunity to harm him." The man said, trying to separate Chen Feng.
Chen Feng ignored him and directly instructed the waiter next to him, "Hold him down first."
The man was taken aback by Chen Feng's words. After Chen Feng gave the order, the waiter immediately pinned the man down, rendering him unable to move. He was anxious and said, "What are you doing? Do you believe I'll report you to the authorities?"
Neither the waiter nor Chen Feng had a chance to speak. Chen Feng looked at the customer lying on the ground, twirled the silver needle in his hand, and then stabbed it into the man's finger. After the needle was inserted, the man sat up abruptly, still cursing, "Which bastard dared to stab your grandpa..."
Before he could finish speaking, he stopped abruptly. Seeing the various gazes directed at him from the surrounding guests, and Chen Feng still holding the silver needles in his hand, the man thought to himself, "Oh no!"
Just as Chen Feng had expected, he wasn't really unconscious. He had heard everything Chen Feng said, but he hadn't taken it seriously, thinking that Chen Feng was just checking his pulse at most. He never expected that Chen Feng would prick him with silver needles.
Pretending to only just realize what was happening, he asked Chen Feng, "Who are you?"
After the person woke up, the surroundings immediately fell silent, especially the man, who cursed his accomplices in his heart. Their original plan was to ruin the reputation of Crescent Moon Pavilion, then take the opportunity to extort some money from Chen Feng, and then leave.
Unexpectedly, Chen Feng pulled this stunt, and he even had his own accomplices. Now that he's awake, things have become much more difficult.
"This guest... he really did wake up quite quickly." Chen Feng looked at the man's accomplice and curled his lips into a smile.
"Where...where is this? How did I get here?" Seeing that Chen Feng didn't respond, the person who had just woken up looked at the man with a confused expression and said, "Weren't we just eating? Why did I faint here?"
"Because there was something wrong with the food at Crescent Moon Restaurant, you kept foaming at the mouth after eating it."
"How is that possible?" The man, who had just woken up, opened his eyes wide and looked at Chen Feng angrily: "Boss, there was something wrong with the food in your restaurant that caused me to faint. You have to take responsibility."
Chen Feng looked at the man with a mocking expression and said, "If I remember correctly, I never told you my identity. So how do you know I'm the owner of Crescent Moon Pavilion?"
"This..." The man was speechless. He had naturally learned this while he was pretending to be unconscious, but he couldn't admit it. So he said, "I noticed that your attire is different from the other staff members, so I guessed that you are the owner of Crescent Moon Pavilion."
"Are you trying to shirk responsibility? You can't just let it go like this, since I fainted at your restaurant."
"Of course we won't let this go," Chen Feng said. "I'll go find the government officials and doctors to examine it. It's our responsibility at Crescent Moon Pavilion, and I certainly won't ignore it."
The two men's expressions changed drastically. They thought that after such an incident, Chen Feng would definitely try to hide it. They never expected that Chen Feng would not only not hide it, but would also take the initiative to go to the government officials and doctors. If the matter were true, they would not be afraid to see the government officials. However, they knew in their hearts that the person just now was just faking fainting, and the doctor could find out as soon as he examined him.
