After hearing what Ren Xueting said, Ye Chui fell silent. In the era of gourmet food, attending that kind of banquet was considered a food crime and naturally required strict protection measures. It was the first time for Ye Chui to attend such a banquet and the footage of him cooking was filmed. If this video was circulated, it would definitely have a bad impact on Ye Chui. This was also the way the banquet organizer controlled the chef.
Most of the people participating in the banquet are famous, and it is difficult to bring them down without solid evidence. This is why Ren Xueting is fearless at this time.
She suddenly moved closer to Ye Chui and gently brushed her fingers across his face: "If you look closely, Mr. Ye, you are actually quite handsome."
Ye Chui: "... Miss Ren, please respect yourself."
"Hahaha..." Ren Xueting laughed charmingly and complacently, "Mr. Ye, you are really cute, but let's not waste any more time talking nonsense. I am indeed very interested in you, but I hope you can help me with something."
"What help?" Ye Chui asked hurriedly.
"I know you have a close relationship with Mr. Han, so I hope you can help me to get in touch with him. Recently, Mr. Han's company is about to launch a new food product, and I want to get the endorsement of that product. I hope you can help me, Mr. Ye..." Ren Xueting's voice became low and hoarse, "Of course, if you help me with this matter, I can also bring you some benefits."
"For example?" Ye Cui was a little curious about this question.
"How about me?" Ren Xueting said with a charming aura all over her body, her eyes seemed to be able to captivate people - her acting skills were indeed superb.
Of course, Ye Cui was not so fooled. He had seen so many women like him in his previous life. But Ye Cui pretended to be unable to control himself and said, "This... this... how can this be good?"
"Hehe, there are other benefits for you." Ren Xueting deliberately moved closer to Ye Chui and continued, "Do you know who the other three people who attended the Dark Banquet today are?"
"Who are they?" Ye Cui asked hurriedly. At this moment, he just wanted to get as much information about the Dark Banquet from Ren Xueting as possible.
"One of them is the president of Xizhou City Food Association. Tao Jianen!" Ren Xueting said leisurely.
"Tao Jianen!?"
Ye Chui was shocked when he heard the name. He had seen this middle-aged man at Wu Haimei's banquet before. At that time, Ye Chui had a good impression of this man. Because he had stood up to accuse Fang Tao at a critical moment and deprived Fang Tao of his chef qualification certificate...
At the same time, Ye Chui finally remembered the old voice that made him feel very familiar at the dark banquet, but he couldn't remember who it belonged to. It was Tao Jianen!
The president of the Gourmet Association actually participated in the dark banquet
If this matter were exposed, it would definitely cause an uproar.
Ren Xueting continued leisurely: "You should understand that Tao Jianen is the president of the Gourmet Association. If he helps you, how much help you will encounter in the future—Old Han has fame and fortune, and he has the power from the Gourmet Association."
Ye Chui had a look of shock on his face. This expression was definitely not intentional, but he was truly shocked. He thought of something and asked hurriedly, "Who are the other two people?"
Ren Xueting thought that Ye Chui wanted to know the identities of these people so that he could have some support if he encountered any problems in the future, so she told Ye Chui the identities of the two people with some pride. These two people were also well-known wealthy people in Xizhou City. Ye Chui even had some impression of one of them, having seen him at Wu Haimei's banquet.
However, I had never spoken to him at that time, so I didn't feel a sense of familiarity like Tao Jianen did.
"Not only them, the Dark Banquet in Xizhou City has been held many times, and many people you would never expect have participated in the Dark Banquet." Ren Xueting continued, "President Tao Jianen and I have met in Yanjing City before, so this time he invited me to participate in the Dark Banquet. This is my first time to participate in the Dark Banquet in Xizhou City, but I heard that many big figures in Xizhou City have experienced this kind of banquet. People who have participated in the Dark Banquet will naturally help each other."
Ren Xueting's words were full of pride, as if she didn't think this was a bad thing, but was happy about it - in fact, it was true. During the interrogation by Xing Sen, she even revealed that the reason why she was able to become a big star today was because she had participated in the dark banquet and met many big people, and received a lot of help.
Finally, she said to Ye Chui, "Ye Chui, you have great talent. Ordinary chefs participate in the Dark Banquet because their chef certificates are revoked or their levels are too low. But you are different. You have a bright future. President Tao also wants to convey some information to you through me. As long as you cooperate with us, you will be a famous chef in the future. We will do our best to train you. How about it, are you excited now?"
"It's a bit exciting indeed..."
Ye Chui said honestly that he had already asked all the questions he wanted to ask, so there was no reason to continue pretending. So he took out his phone from his pocket and said to it, "How was the conversation just now?"
"Very clear." Xing Sen's voice came from the other side of the phone.
Ren Xueting's face turned pale: "Who are you talking to on the phone?"
"Follow me!" Xing Sen's voice said on the phone. At the same time, the door of the room was pushed open and Xing Sen walked in from outside. He turned off the phone and continued, "I am the food police. I have recorded the conversation just now. Now I want to arrest you for food crimes!"
"What... this..." Ren Xueting jumped up from the sofa in a hurry, and she was completely confused. She looked at Ye Chui, "What, what is going on?"
"I'm sorry, I'm a good person."
Ye Chui suddenly thought of the lines from that unknown movie in his previous life. It was still very touching to say them at this time...
He wiped the sweat off his face and said, "Miss Ren, you have just revealed the other three people who participated in the dark banquet this time. However, there should have been other dark banquets held before this. If you know who the participants are, I hope you can tell me their names truthfully."
"You... you lied to me..." Ren Xueting's face turned pale, and then she showed an angry expression, "How dare you lie to me? Don't forget that you are the chef of the Dark Banquet, and you once cruelly killed a little monkey! If people know about this, believe it or not, I will let you..."
"Hey, you can't even protect yourself, so stop threatening others." Xing Sen interrupted Ren Xueting. "Just based on what you just said, you can be convicted. Moreover, Ye Chui's actions were all authorized by me. He didn't really kill the monkey. The so-called monkey brains you ate were actually made by Ye Chui using tofu. You can't even tell the difference between tofu and monkey brains. You people are really stupid!"
"That... that's not monkey brains, but tofu?" Ren Xueting was obviously a little bit unbelieving.
Xing Sen laughed a few times: "Congratulations, Miss Ren, your acting career ends here."
Ren Xueting: “…”
After a few minutes of daze, Ren Xueting seemed to finally realize the current situation. She was deliberately coaxed by Ye Chui, and then made to tell a lot of information about the dark banquet. Not only did she fall into the law, but everyone else would be caught as well. Her acting career would suffer a serious blow in the future, and she would be punished. Most importantly... Tao Jianen and others would definitely not let her go. You know, if these people knew that she was the one who leaked their identities, they would definitely not let her off easily.
In an instant, Ren Xueting's strength seemed to be drained away. She quickly revealed an expression of pleading and self-blame, looked at Ye Chui and said, "Ye Chui... I was wrong, I shouldn't have threatened you with those videos just now, can you... can you save me? As long as you help me this time, I will listen to you in everything from now on."
“How can I believe the words of a star like you?” Ye Chui sneered and shook his head. Ever since he saw these people being indifferent to the monkey’s screams and even enjoying it at the dark banquet just now, Ye Chui would never be lenient towards them.
He took Ren Xueting's phone, found the video, and deleted it directly.
Xing Sen had already neatly handcuffed Ren Xueting. At this time, Ye Chui thought of something important and asked Xing Sen, "It seems that the scene of me cooking was recorded. Can you help me clean up those videos? If these things are exposed, it will not be a good thing after all."
"Don't worry, you helped me a lot this time, how could I let you get into danger?" Xing Sen said with a smile, "I didn't expect it to be so smooth. This woman actually revealed the names of several people who participated in the dark banquet. I will contact the Food Police Squad and ask them to arrest the others."
Ren Xueting's face was ashen. She was a big star admired by everyone. She was still young and had a very bright future. There were countless fans who were willing to do anything for her...
But tonight, all of this was ruined. In the Gourmet Era, food crimes were very serious, and participating in the dark banquet represented a lot. This behavior was even worse than taking drugs. Once her crime was announced, there would definitely not be any fans willing to support her. It was over... everything was over.
Xing Sen was escorting Ren Xueting away, and Ye Chui suddenly thought of something at this time, so he smiled and said to Ren Xueting: "Miss Ren, there is actually something I really want to know."
Ren Xueting thought things had taken a turn for the better, she looked at Ye Chui: "You...whatever you want to know, I will tell you everything."
"It's like this, our Xiaoyu has always been very interested in this question..." Ye Chui laughed, "By the way, have you really had plastic surgery?"
Ren Xueting: “… ”(~^~)
