Chapter 79 Don't let him get away!
Upon hearing this, Meng Yan became interested: "Of course, it'll also help me gather some materials."
"That's great!"
Jiang Yang breathed a sigh of relief and turned to Zhou Limin, saying, "Sister Zhou, I have something urgent to take care of. Could you watch over the stall for me? There are only a few clothes left."
Zhou Limin hesitated for a moment: "But..."
Seeing this, Jiang Yang immediately put on a pitiful expression: "Sister Zhou, please help me! I promise I'll treat you to a meal next time! Just one meal, Peking duck from Beijing!"
Zhou Limin was deeply moved by those words, and seeing his sincere eyes, she finally softened.
"Okay, okay, just this once."
Just as Jiang Yang was about to leave, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted, "He's trying to get away! Don't let him get away! That kid is a liar!"
A commotion immediately arose in the crowd, and many people's eyes were filled with vigilance.
Ten thousand yuan!
They can't let that hard-earned money slip through their fingers.
Jiang Yang cursed inwardly.
That Zhao Shengbin is really persistent!
He turned around and faced the crowd: "Fellow villagers, I'm not running away, I'm taking the old lady to the hospital for a checkup! If anyone else has a similar situation, please come to the hospital and find me! I will take full responsibility!"
Meng Yan also stepped forward, showing her press card: "I am a reporter from the Yanjing Daily. If he runs away, I will report it immediately! Don't worry!"
Upon hearing this, everyone felt much more at ease.
Jiang Yang gave Zhou Limin a grateful look, then pulled Meng Yan along and quickly headed towards the hospital.
Watching the two figures disappear into the distance, Zhou Limin muttered to herself, "Really, leaving me here all alone... roast duck, roast duck..."
Despite her complaints, she still diligently began tidying up the clothes on her stall.
At the same time, Jiang Yang followed Meng Yan to the hospital.
They walked quickly to the door of the clinic and immediately saw Chu Lan talking to an old lady.
Jiang Yang gently pushed open the door and went inside.
"Chu Lan, how were the test results?" he asked, feigning concern.
When the old lady saw Jiang Yang, she immediately jumped up from her chair: "You heartless boss, you've finally come! My face is red, swollen, and itchy, you have to pay me back!"
As she spoke, she reached out to grab Jiang Yang's collar.
Chu Lan quickly stopped her: "Auntie, please don't rush. Let's wait until the boss has read the report before we talk about it."
Jiang Yang gave Chu Lan an approving look, then turned to the old lady with a reassuring smile: "Auntie, don't worry, we'll take care of it. Let me look at the report first."
He took the examination report from Chu Lan, pretended to look at it carefully, then his face darkened and his tone became cold: "Auntie, according to this report, you are allergic to yams. Our factory's production process is completely standardized, and it is impossible for yams to be present."
The old woman was taken aback, her expression shifting from anger to confusion: "Mountain, yam? What yam? I don't know!"
Meng Yan took out her notebook and began to take notes quickly, glancing up at Jiang Yang and the old lady every now and then, afraid of missing any details.
This is big news!
Chu Lan immediately realized what was happening and said righteously, "That's right! The factories we use are all fully standardized, how could there be an allergen like yam! Ma'am, did you eat something else elsewhere?"
When the old lady heard that the money was about to disappear, she panicked.
She didn't care about yams anymore and started yelling at the top of her lungs, "Ouch! My face! My face is so itchy! You heartless boss! You're framing me because I had an allergic reaction! Everyone come and see! You heartless boss, you won't pay me back!"
People outside the clinic heard the shouts and began to peer inside, soon forming a large crowd.
Jiang Yang calmly waved the report in his hand and raised his voice: "Neighbors, please be the judge! This report clearly states that this old lady is allergic to yams! Our factory's production is completely standardized, and it's impossible for yams to be present! Therefore, this old lady's allergy is entirely her own doing!"
In the midst of the commotion, two security guards dressed in old-fashioned blue uniforms and wearing peaked caps walked over.
One of the older men asked, "What's going on? Why is it so noisy? This is a hospital!"
As soon as the old woman saw help, she burst into tears, pointing at Jiang Yang and saying, "Comrade, you have to stand up for me! This heartless boss made my face allergic to the clothes he sold me, and now he won't admit it and is trying to renege on his debt!"
Jiang Yang sneered, "Auntie, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. The inspection report clearly states in black and white that you are allergic to yams, but the clothes from my factory don't contain any yams at all. You're framing me!"
The older security guard frowned, looked at Jiang Yang, then at the old lady who was crying her eyes out, and said, "Young man, respecting the elderly and caring for the young is our traditional virtue. Look at how old this lady is, she's had a hard life. Just be generous and pay her some compensation."
Upon hearing this, the old woman became even more agitated, slapping her thigh and wailing, "That's right! These young people nowadays have no respect for the elderly at all! My old face is already like this, and he still won't pay me back!"
Jiang Yang cursed the security guard inwardly for not distinguishing right from wrong, but kept a straight face: "Since you can't explain it clearly, then call the police and let them judge the matter."
Upon hearing this, the young security guard quickly said, "Hey, no, no, no, it's not a big deal. Is it really necessary to call the police? Young man, you're not very magnanimous at all."
As he spoke, he went to call the police.
The older security guard continued to persuade Jiang Yang to let the matter rest.
Jiang Yang ignored him and just stood there quietly with a cold smile on his lips.
Not long after, Wu Yong appeared at the door of the clinic.
His heart skipped a beat when he saw Jiang Yang.
Why is it him again?
But his face remained impassive: "What's going on?"
Meng Yan immediately stepped forward and briefly recounted what had happened.
After listening, Wu Yong roughly understood.
It's likely that someone is pulling strings behind the scenes, trying to get back at Jiang Yang.
But he dared not show favoritism like last time, after all, Meng Yan was present, and this time it was obvious that the old lady was being unreasonable.
He said righteously, "Alright, I understand. This is entirely your own problem, old lady, and has nothing to do with the boss. Come with me to the police station right now!"
As he spoke, he tried to take the old lady away.
The old lady immediately became anxious: "Officer, you can't just listen to his side of the story! It was Zhao Shengbin, Zhao Shengbin told me to do it!"
Upon hearing the name "Zhao Shengbin," Wu Yong's heart skipped a beat.
Good heavens, this kid can offend anyone!
