Everything I bought on online shopping platforms was genuine.

What a joke! His restaurant doesn't need advertising. After all, he only caters to high-end clients and makes money from rich people. What's the use of a restaurant being popular? He only operates one day a week and can only serve a maximum of three tables at a time. What does popularity have to do with him?
His restaurant's customers all came through Liu Ruyan's connections. Although his restaurant was already well-known in Jiangning's wealthy circles even without Liu Ruyan, it was agreed from the beginning that since Liu Ruyan was useful, he should give her the right to make reservations. After all, it doesn't matter whose money he makes!
However, today he noticed that only one of the six waiters in the store was an older employee; the rest were all newcomers who worked very efficiently and were much more diligent than before.

"You've been having a pretty good time lately, haven't you?"

Inside the kitchen, her cousin Su He couldn't help but laugh.

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo was taken aback: "What's wrong with me?"

"You're still pretending? This online help of strangers wearing wedding dresses has caused quite a stir. And I also heard from Ruyan that you've joined the Party?" Su He asked.

In response, Lin Mo laughed and said, "Hey, you mean this? It's nothing, just basic stuff. The thing online was mainly caused by the Sichuan girl. I just went over to join in the fun. As for joining the Party, I submitted my application last year. I forgot about it because of your chivalry!"

Although these things are not insignificant, they all happened naturally and did not come out of thin air, so there is nothing surprising about them.

"These are all basic operations, so fighting with someone at Yuan Hua's wedding is also basic operations?" Su He said expressionlessly.

Lin Mo:
"Cousin, listen to me, I had no choice but to do this..."

"Go away, go away! Ruyan already told me everything. Otherwise, would I have let you off so easily? Look at you, how old are you? Why are you still so impulsive? What if the other party calls the police? Do you still want to join the Party then? You'll be lucky if you don't end up in jail!" Su He sighed.

Her cousin is quite capable now, but he's also becoming increasingly troublesome.

Not only did they physically assault someone at their wedding, but they also sent one of the family members to the hospital, and even slapped the other family of three.

It was strange that the other party actually swallowed their anger and didn't call the police. But from Su He's perspective, the other party was only afraid of Liu Ruyan's family situation, which was why they didn't choose to call the police. As for her cousin, he didn't have that ability. Even though Liu Ruyan repeatedly denied it, she still thought so.

"Hey, I'll be more careful from now on!" Lin Mo said helplessly.

Su He: "You'd better not. You and Ru Yan aren't even married yet, it's not good for you to cause them trouble like this."

Why can't you learn from your two dorm roommates? They're so well-behaved!

Sure enough, once this person has money, he becomes more assertive and has a bigger temper. Now Su He even thinks that her cousin's two roommates are good kids.

“Learn from those two? Are you crazy?” Lin Mo exploded upon hearing this.

How could he not know what kind of people Wang Chu and Chuan Mei were?
“What’s wrong with Wang Li and Xiao Wang? At least they’re honest and law-abiding kids. One works with his girlfriend, and the other runs his own business. I’ve never seen them fight with anyone!” Su He said matter-of-factly.

Upon hearing this, Lin Mo opened his mouth: "The two of them? Honest and law-abiding kids? This is the first time I've ever heard of such a thing!"

Meanwhile, instead of gathering in the studio to prepare for payday, Chuanmei and the others gathered downstairs in the residential complex.

At that moment, a pickup truck was parked in the parking space downstairs in the residential area, and the Sichuan girl was tied up to the back of the truck.

The man was leaning against the front of the vehicle, with a makeshift wooden cross behind him. His arms were firmly bound to the horizontal wooden plank, and a large sign on the cross prominently displayed the words "Lai Jiu" (meaning "Lai Jiu," a derogatory term for a man who cheats on his wife).

The reason is that yesterday, the Sichuan girl only drank five bottles, but he enjoyed the same treatment as Director Wang.

Miss Yuan got up this morning to count the bottles, and suddenly discovered that that scoundrel from Sichuan was cheating and being cunning. This was unacceptable!
They then teamed up with squad leader Wang and He Xiaoyue, found a pickup truck, lured him to the back of the truck, and then swarmed him and tied him up tightly.

While subduing Wang Chu might be difficult, subduing Chuan Mei, a man physically weaker than a good old woman, was a piece of cake for the four of them. Chuan Mei had no chance to resist and was tied up.

"Sister Yuan, Sister Yuan, what are you doing? It can't be that serious, it really can't be that serious. It's just wine, I just forgot yesterday, it's definitely not a lie. I'll make up for it right away, can I make up for it with two bottles? Three bottles!" the Sichuan girl shouted.

Upon hearing this, Miss Yuan pouted and said, "Get lost! I, Sister Yuan, have the utmost contempt for those who refuse to drink."

One's a drunkard, the other's read but not replied—these kinds of people should be shot! Even Little Black Dog drank over four bottles yesterday, and you're acting like a coward now, begging for mercy? No way!

"If Sister Yuan hadn't counted the bottles this morning, you would have fooled me. Where is Director Wang?!"

Wang Chu: "Your subject is here!!"

Miss Yuan: "Announce the imperial decree!"

Director Wang: "Yes, sir! Li Chuan, courtesy name Shiya, openly refused to drink during dinner last night. His crime is unforgivable, but considering it's his first offense and Sister Yuan's magnanimity, he is hereby sentenced to be paraded through the streets as a warning. So be it!"
Hehe, Chuanzi, sorry about that. New moon, new look. I have to shoot some footage to upload later, so I won't let you wear the mask. I hope this will make you realize your mistake and learn from it, so you won't try to get away with drinking again.

"Damn it, they want to parade me through the streets! Director Wang, you're like a bean curd stick being cooked, the beans in the pot are crying out, we have the same father, why kill me first!"
We were inseparable, like brothers, roommates! When you were a simp, who comforted you? When you wore your tea bags until they were yellowed, who lent you laundry detergent? Back then…” Chuanmei shouted.

Upon hearing this, Director Wang immediately panicked: "Sister Yuan, I beg you to execute Li Shiya. Or should we skip the parade and I just run him over with my car?"

What is all this? If the Sichuan girl keeps shouting for a while, everyone will know about his dark history.

Miss Yuan was listening intently when she saw this and quickly said, "Li Shiya, your crimes are heinous, you should be exiled to Lingnan!"

Sichuan girl: "I'm not satisfied! I'm going to call Lao Mo and ask him to seek justice for me!!"

Miss Yuan was taken aback: "Looking for Mo-zai? No need, I'll take you there!!"

After saying that, he got into the car and sped off. Seeing this, Director Wang quickly got into another car and followed behind with the squad leader and two women to film footage.

This is one of the few pieces of wild material available; it's all about realism!

Soon, a pickup truck carrying a man sped off on horseback, while the man shouted that he was innocent.

It wasn't until other drivers on the road saw this and started recording videos with their phones that Chuanmei realized how embarrassing she had been. She quickly lowered her head, after all, even someone like Li had a sense of shame!
At 10:30 a.m., Miss Yuan and the Sichuan girl arrived at the restaurant entrance.

"I'll teach you to refuse to drink, you corrupt official! You embezzle public funds, you pervert the law, you disregard human life! You shameless bastard, I'll beat you up!"

At the restaurant entrance, Lin Mo was excitedly tossing vegetable leaves at the Sichuan girl with a basket.

It's the 21st century! I never thought that besides Hengdian, he could experience this kind of scene in real life. It's like an immersive murder mystery game!
It's just that his restaurant doesn't have any rotten eggs, otherwise he would have thrown away two no matter what!

Seeing this from behind, Su He, Su He's cousin, suddenly realized that it was alright for her cousin to hit someone, at least it wasn't shameful, right?
