Chapter 297 - Ye Lingchen’s Methods!

297 Ye Lingchen’s Methods!

“Everyone, look at my face and my neck!” The middle-aged woman stretched out her neck to show the crowd.

The crowd watched as they shook their heads, continuing their criticisms for the store.

Zhang Yunxi stood in front of the door, seemingly confused as she tried to defend herself. “Ma’am, our store uses authentic products. We have the purchasing order here. You can have a look at it.”

Behind Zhang Yunxi were two more beautiful girls that looked to be almost the same age as her. They were hired to help out at the store.

They too were trying their best to explain to the crowd.

“Hehe, authentic? Based on a purchasing order to show the authenticity?” the middle-aged woman answered harshly. She stared coldly at Zhang Yunxi. “Young lady, do you even have a conscience running the store like this? Trying to earn money through illegal means? Aren’t you worried about karma?”

“I’ve used makeup for so many years and I’ve yet to see such a situation. Don’t you think I’ll be able to tell if your products are authentic or not?”

“Cut the crap. I want reimbursement!” the man with a big face next to the middle-aged woman finally piped up. “Psychological trauma, scam, and the damage to her face. You’ll have to pay us at least RMB200,000!”

“RMB200,000? That’s daylight robbery!” exclaimed the girl beside Zhang Yunxi.

“Hehe, RMB200,000 is already on the low side! If you don’t pay, I’ll make a complaint about you and sue you!” said the man sternly.

“This type of cosmetic store is a menace to society. Let’s report them together and have them close down!” shouted someone from the crowd.

“Everyone, please trust me. If it was our store’s problem, we will definitely be responsible for it. However, things are still unclear now. Please don’t jump to conclusions hastily!” Zhang Yunxi said nervously.

“Hehe, the truth is before our eyes. Are you still trying to talk your way out of this?”

“This woman looks so beautiful. How could she do something like this?”

“Nowadays, people will really do anything for money.”

Ye Lingchen frowned. He was standing in the crowd and he could tell with a glance that the middle-aged lady’s face and neck was swollen from applying chili oil. That was an intentional setup to frame Zhang Yunxi.

Under such circumstances, a simple check at the hospital would reveal the truth. However, the other party was trying to look for trouble and would not give Zhang Yunxi that chance.

The TikTok video clip from the previous day had just gone viral, and someone was already looking for trouble. With such coincidence, it was very clear that they were here just to stir up trouble.

They were trying to run Y Cosmetics into the ground!

Ye Lingchen stealthily put on Superman Y’s mask over his head and slowly walked forward.

Meanwhile, the man with the big face was already in front of Zhang Yunxi. His attention was on her face, and some unclean thoughts fleeted through his mind as he sneered, “If you don’t pay up, we’ll never let this go. Don’t even think about running the store anymore! We’re not leaving!”

“We need to investigate this incident. If the problem is with the makeup, we will be fully responsible,” Zhang Yunxi explained. ” I suggest we hire a professional to have a look at it.”

“You still need to investigate? It’s clear that you’re just trying to shirk your responsibilities!” Right after his statement, the man licked his lips and stretched his hand creepily towards Zhang Yunxi.

Right at that moment, a hand stretched out and grabbed hold of the man’s wrist. “Let’s keep this civil, no need to get physical!”

The man’s gaze turned serious. “Who the h*ll are you? How dare you—”

However, he gasped before he could finish his sentence. His face turned pale and started shivering all over.

From his wrist, an excruciating pain caused his face to contort, losing the ability to speak.

“O-o-ow, let me go…” His voice sounded as though he was about to cry.

“Do you think it’s better to be civilized or be physical?” Ye Lingchen stared at him coldly.

“Civilized, let’s be civilized…” replied the man immediately while covered in a cold sweat.

Ye Lingchen swung nonchalantly, swinging him back a few steps. At the same time, a silver needle flashed from Ye Lingchen’s other hand, stabbing on that man’s body.

He then turned to the crowd, speaking calmly, “I’m the boss of this store. If there’s any question, bring them to me!”

“F*ck! Amazing! Even with such troubles, this boss is still so impressive?”

“Are you wearing a mask to hide your identity? Most importantly, that’s Superman Y’s mask. You’re insulting my idol!”

“The store is called Y Cosmetics, and he’s wearing Superman Y’s mask. Does he think he’s Y?”

“That tone. It’s too much. What’s the deal?”

Everyone was shocked. Countless eyes focused on Ye Lingchen, measuring him up as they continued their discussion.

Zhang Yunxi stared at Ye Lingchen, then quietly retreated behind him and kept silent. At that moment, she felt fully secure.

“You’re the boss?” The middle-aged woman pointed at Ye Lingchen. “Your store ruined my face, and you dare to use physical violence? Is the law dead?! I want to complain, and sue you!”

Ye Lingchen slowly walked forward.

The middle-aged woman stared at Ye Lingchen, screaming at the top of her lungs, “What? Are you trying to beat me up? Help, someone’s trying to assault me! The shady store is hitting its customer!”

She walked up to Ye Lingchen during her speech. “Come, come hit me if you dare!”

Ye Lingchen flashed his silver needle again, poking on her body without anyone realizing it. After that, he spoke calmly, “Your face and neck are because of a disease!”

“Hehe, disease? What disease?” The middle-aged woman showed a sarcastic smile. “Nonsense. You’re just shirking responsibilities!”

She understood it better than anyone else. How could that be a disease?

“Believe it or not, the name of this disease is Sexually Transmitted Disease![1]” Ye Lingchen said calmly. “Don’t you feel that your neck and face itching?”

Everything was fine before Ye Lingchen mentioned it. However, right after he brought it up, the middle-aged woman and that man were stunned for a moment. They really felt an itch on their face and neck.

Furthermore, now that they touched it, their hearts skipped a beat. At the place of the itch, a small lump was there!

“This…” They exchanged looks, then immediately screamed out loud.

On the other party’s face and neck, red bumps appeared suddenly, looking absolutely horrifying.

When matched with Ye Lingchen’s words, their hearts went cold.

“F*ck!”

The man’s face turned ugly. Without any hesitation, he gave that middle-aged woman a huge slap to the face!

“Slut! Did you do some shameful things behind my back? You slut! I’m in trouble because of you!”

“How dare you hit me?!” The middle-aged woman shrieked in her loud and shrill voice, then swung her hand to the man’s face!

“You b*stard, I’m the one that can’t be sure which slut you sleep with! I’m not done with you!”

Both of them immediately got tangled up in a fight. The man’s face was filled with countless scratch marks while the woman’s face was bulging with bumps, turning into something like a pig’s head.

The surrounding crowd spread out in an instant, watching them with expressions of pity and horror…
