After Yao Shi left, Dong Jun Tian had a private conversation with Jia Rundong.

The conversation implied that he wanted Jia Rundong to get along with Yao Shi.

Dong Jun Tian was unaware of the incident where Jia Rundong’s acquaintance cut in line at the restaurant.

In his view, Jia Rundong was likely competing with Yao Shi, with Fu Yu being caught in the middle.

In front of Dong Jun Tian, Jia Rundong had to carefully explain that he got along well with Yao Shi and was only angered by Fu Yu’s attitude this time.

Seeing that Dong Jun Tian was skeptical, he had to change his explanation, saying he was just exhausted from preparing for the National Day event and feeling a bit irritable.

After much effort, he finally managed to leave Dong Jun Tian’s office.

After attending a social event in the evening, Jia Rundong drove home as usual.

As soon as he entered, he saw his daughter, who was in her second year of high school, huddled on the living room sofa, eagerly watching a live stream on her phone.

“I’m back!”

His daughter looked up and greeted him, “Dad!”

Then she continued to focus on the live stream.

His wife, Qiao Lili, quickly came out to greet him.

Feeling helpless, Jia Rundong turned to his wife and asked, “Did An Ning skip dinner again?”

His wife Qiao Lili sighed, “She ate. She made herself a vegetable juice with cucumbers, celery, chives, and bitter melon, saying it’s both nutritious and helps with weight loss.”

Jia Rundong felt a bit distressed. Although his daughter wasn’t doing well in her studies and was a bit rebellious, she was very beautiful.

She’s only in her second year of high school, and her height has already reached 1.78 meters, looking like a model even in her school uniform, standing out strikingly.

Despite having a perfectly fine figure, she insisted on dieting.

Every night, she skips dinner and satisfies her cravings by watching eating shows, getting visual thrills from seeing hosts eat.

Jia Rundong sat down next to her, glanced at the phone screen, and sure enough, saw a thin, pretty female host savoring food in front of the camera.

“If you want to eat something, just come to my restaurant, and I’ll have the chef make it for you. What’s the point of just watching them eat?”

Jia Anning frowned, “If I eat myself, I’ll gain weight. Watching them eat, I don’t gain a pound!”

Because he felt sorry for his daughter, Jia Rundong especially disliked those female hosts and couldn’t help but grumble, “All these so-called eating shows and competitive eaters, how many of them are actually eating it all? It’s all fake, exposed in the news! Otherwise, how could they eat so much and stay so slim?”

“A human stomach is only so big! How many genuinely have such a unique ability across the entire country? And they’re all doing eating shows?”

Hearing this, Jia Anning got anxious and quickly defended her favorite host, “Who said she’s doing eating shows? She’s exploring restaurants! She’s specialized in searching for unique eateries throughout the province! She’s very professional, unlike those other promotional hosts who take money to advertise!”

Seeing the father and daughter about to argue again, Qiao Lili quickly intervened, “Old Jia, the water is ready, go take a shower first!”

Jia Rundong got up and headed to the bathroom to take a comfortable shower.

Just as he stepped out, he heard his daughter shout, “Dad! Come quick! Isn’t this your restaurant?”

Jia Rundong was stunned and hurried over.

He looked at the phone screen and indeed saw a picture of Qianlima Restaurant’s front entrance.

Jia Rundong mumbled to himself, is she here to explore our restaurant? Feeling curious.

The camera froze for two or three seconds, then the photo was removed, revealing the beautiful host.

The host faced the camera with a serious expression and spoke clearly:

“The latest article by the well-known influencer ‘Bifeng Rujian’ called [Cutting in Line with Acquaintances, is Your Time Time, and Others’ Not?], really resonated with me!”

“The management at Qianlima Restaurant let acquaintances cut in line to eat and were refused by the chef, yet they abused their power for personal gain and revenge…”

“These things are just too common.”

“Rules and regulations are set for those who follow them. Meanwhile, those with acquaintances cut the line, so does our waiting time not matter? Or is it because we didn’t pay for our meals…”

Jia Rundong was dumbfounded!

The more he watched, the more stunned and anxious he became!

This host was clearly referring to the incident where he tried to let an acquaintance cut the line for a dish last time.

Moreover, she was eloquent, incisive in her words, and evocative, making it easy for people to empathize.

Seeing the constant barrage of comments nearly filling up the screen showed how provocative her words were!

Exploiting one’s position to cut in line has always incited public outrage!

Plus, with the host’s deliberate guidance, the number of viewers in the live stream was rapidly increasing, and the volume of comments was so vast that they couldn’t be read.

And when the host mentioned that Chef Fu Yu from Qianlima refused to prioritize dishes for the leadership’s acquaintances and insisted on the order, only to be maliciously punished by the leadership, Jia Rundong couldn’t sit still anymore!

He suddenly realized that he was being targeted!

Who did it?

Only a few people knew about this incident!

Zhao Meng?

No, that coffin lid always speaks straightforwardly, not resorting to such underhanded methods!

Could it be Fu Yu?

Thinking of this, Jia Rundong was startled!

Just by looking at the endless comments, one could tell how popular the host was!

And seeing nearly 240,000 viewers at the upper right corner of the screen, Jia Rundong’s face changed.

This incident was still fermenting, as more and more people continued entering the live stream room.

The host was still eloquently commenting on the article by this influencer called “Bifeng Rujian.”

Considering the person is called an influencer, it’s imaginable that many have read this article as well.

If even he could see these things, what about the other people in Bei’an City?

Have his colleagues at the store, friends and family, seen this news, too?

Thinking of this, Jia Rundong’s face turned completely grim.

The more critical the situation, the calmer he needed to be.

He quickly adjusted his mindset and took a deep breath.

The urgent matter was to stop this incident from continuing to spread!

But!

The live stream was ongoing, and even leaving a comment to stop it wouldn’t work, the comments were moving too quickly to be read.

But letting her continue broadcasting would only make more people know!

And most importantly, she was very famous, attracting so many viewers to her live stream room.

Her words, the views she expressed, and her stance would influence the perceptions and opinions of her fans, and that was scary!

Thinking about this made Jia Rundong increasingly anxious. It was clear the host intended to target him.

But where did she get the information, and whose side was she on?

Thinking it over, Jia Rundong racked his brain, and could only think of Fu Yu!

After all, he thought to himself, he was usually quite smooth in dealing with people and got along well with everyone at the restaurant.

Especially with those who held power, he was always particularly cautious, not daring to offend anyone.

In the end, it just came down to Fu Yu.
