Chapter 151

Alarieka also knew this group of merchants definitely wouldn’t be satisfied. So this time, when the mountain fell, everyone pushed.

“You guys didn’t know, I was watching here the whole time. The oil in their barbecue stand hadn’t been changed for a long time, it really wasn’t hygienic.”

“Yeah, I told you guys not to eat at their stall. Who knows how many days those barbecues had been sitting there? They probably went bad, that’s why they put so much sauce on them.”

Jaylene was about to explode with anger. “What nonsense are you talking about? I changed the oil every day, and I sold out every day too. How could I possibly leave barbecue for the next day? You’re just lying with your eyes wide open!”

In front of so many people, that middle-aged woman was yelled at and froze for a second. She looked around awkwardly, then got angry out of embarrassment. “People ate your barbecue and got stomachaches, and you still dared to say you had no problem?”

Jaylene was speechless. She didn’t know how it happened, either. She picked everything herself, from the oil to the ingredients, so there was no way something like this could have happened.

Alaricka quietly put her workbook, papers, and pens into her bag, stood up, and walked over to the girl who was still squatting on the ground. She reached out her hand, trying to help the girl up, but the girl, looking pale, just pushed her away and said it straight: “Pay up!”

Alarieka pressed her lips together and frowned. “Classmate, could we have a proper talk?”

The girl was helped up by someone next to her, glared at her and said, “I bought your barbecue out of kindness, and you hurt me like this. My stomach hurts so much! Hurry up and pay me, stop talking nonsense.”

The people around chipped in and said, “Hurry up and take them to the hospital, can’t you see their face is really pale?”

“This is bad, not only did I have to pay for damages, but also for medical bills. All the money I made these days was gone.” About this, losing money was still a small thing. More importantly, could the business keep going?

Right now, because of this sudden thing, the students who were waiting for the barbecue all put their baskets back and asked Jaylene to give them a refund right away, and some students who had already eaten or taken the barbecue were also asking for a refund. Only a few of Jaylene’s friends hesitated, looking at the barbecue in their hands.

Alarieka gave Jaylene a look. In this situation, we had to keep things steady and show some real sincerity. She said, “Just refund it.”

Jaylene was a smart person, and it went without saying that the best way to solve things now was to show some real sincerity. Not just the ones who wanted a refund, even the ones who didn’t, Alarieka and Jaylene also quit.

Alarieka stood in front of the little girl and said softly, “Since you had a problem after eating, I’ll take you to the hospital for a checkup. We’ll cover the medical expenses.” Her voice really stood out in the crowd: “If you really had a problem because of the barbecue we made, we’ll take full responsibility. But before that, I need you to cooperate with us and go to the hospital for a checkup to find out the cause.”

After saying that, Alarieka clearly saw the girl’s face freeze. Alarieka narrowed her eyes a bit and quickly noticed that things definitely weren’t as simple as they seemed.

The girl suddenly squatted down again, holding her stomach and groaning. “They just didn’t want to pay, that’s why they talked so much. My stomach almost killed me, and they didn’t care about their reputation at all. I don’t care, you guys pay me ten thousand dollars right now, and I won’t go after you for the medical bills. Hurry up and pay.”

Of course, Alarieka had money to pay, but she didn’t want to. The girl obviously had a problem; there’s no way she was dumb enough to just do whatever the other girl said. If I really paid her the money like she wanted, then no matter how sincere her attitude was, it would have confirmed the rumor that there was actually something wrong with her barbecue.

The girl’s wailing didn’t stop. Alarieka didn’t change her expression and just casually lifted her eyelids to take a look. At the school gate, Clarissa stood in front of her little group of followers, arms crossed, smiling all smug and provocative…

Alarieka was about to say something, but Jaylene came over.
