...
After kicking Ye Tong away, the woman disdainfully picked up the scarf worn by the nearby waiter, wiped her shoes with it, and threw it back to the male waiter, saying, "Quickly take away this dirty thing. This dress of mine was custom-made and cost over a hundred thousand. It was almost dirtied by her touch."
Already weak and frail, Ye Tong found it extremely difficult to even stand up after being kicked so hard.
But the people around her didn't give her a chance to rest on the ground. Seeing that this dead child brought in by some staff member had angered the esteemed guest, the waiter quickly picked her up and said to the woman next to him, "I'm really sorry. It was our restaurant's negligence that caused you such a bad experience. This little girl must have sneaked in while our security guard wasn't paying attention. I will immediately escort her out."
The waiter said this because he had received a text message from the manager, instructing him on how to handle the situation.
The strategy was to try to distance this little girl from their restaurant staff as much as possible.
As for which employee specifically brought her in, it could be investigated slowly after this matter was resolved.
For now, the priority was to appease the guest's emotions and completely separate the girl from their restaurant, so as not to make the guest feel that their restaurant was unprofessional.
Therefore, this explanation was given. As soon as he finished speaking, in order to avoid further displeasing the guest, he immediately prepared to throw Ye Tong out of the restaurant.
Ye Tong was only 8 years old and had no ability to resist. She could only quickly explain, "Big brother, I didn't sneak in. I came with my brother. I didn't sneak in. Please don't throw me away."
At this moment, she regretted not letting the female waiter wait for her earlier.
If the female waiter had been there, she could have helped explain.
Upon hearing Ye Tong's words, the male waiter couldn't help but pause his actions.
When he said earlier that Ye Tong had sneaked in, he made it up himself. Since this little girl could appear in the restaurant, there must be a reason for it. There were several people at the entrance and the security guard was watching, so it was impossible for a little girl to simply sneak in.
Therefore, the male waiter was willing to listen to what Ye Tong had to say.
Of course, he didn't think that Ye Tong came in with a customer to have a meal. He only thought that the brother Ye Tong mentioned was one of the restaurant's staff members.
After all, everyone saw each other frequently, so he couldn't handle someone's sister too harshly. Therefore, he immediately prepared to clarify the situation by asking her.
Finally seeing the other party throw herself back to the ground, Ye Tong let out a sigh of relief and was about to say which private room she had just been in.
The woman next to her suddenly rushed over. It turned out that when Ye Tong was lifted up earlier, she struggled and caused the tissue paper that wrapped the ring in her pocket to fall out.
As the tissue paper fell to the ground and unfolded due to the impact, the diamond ring inside shone, catching the attention of the nearby woman.
The woman who had just rushed over was actually looking for her ring.
Because she didn't know what material the hand sanitizer was made of, she habitually took off the ring before washing her hands. As a result, after washing her hands and just as she was drying them, she received a phone call. Subconsciously, she answered the call and left, completely forgetting about the ring.
It was only after she finished the call that she realized she had forgotten the ring and hurriedly ran back to look for it.
But before she could find it, she bumped into a little girl. Now she saw the precious ring wrapped in a piece of paper that had fallen out of the girl's pocket.
She immediately rushed over and slapped Ye Tong's young face hard.
Ye Tong, being young and fragile, was hit hard by an angry adult. She felt dizzy and her ears were ringing loudly.
Feeling the burning pain on her face and the constant buzzing in her ears, Ye Tong looked at the woman beside her in confusion and helplessness. She couldn't understand why this woman had kicked her for no reason earlier and was now slapping her.
But Ye Tong, being strong, didn't cry. She just asked the woman next to her in confusion, "Auntie, did I do something to make you angry? If I did something wrong, you can tell me directly and I will change. Please don't hit me anymore."
In Ye Tong's eyes, if a stranger was angry enough to hit her, it was likely that she had done something wrong. But at this moment, she couldn't figure out what she had done wrong, so she could only ask to make herself aware of her mistake.
Upon hearing her words, the male waiter next to them couldn't bear it anymore. He had already taken the little girl away, so why was this customer so cruel? Chasing after them and slapping a little girl, it was too much.
"Ma'am, she's just a child after all. We will educate her, there's no need for you to be so angry and chase after her. I'll take her away right now," he said with a forced smile.
"Hmph? Go? Where do you think you're going!" The woman immediately stopped the male waiter who was about to take Ye Tong away, coldly glanced at Ye Tong, who looked helpless and wronged, and sneered, "You little brat, what are you pretending to be innocent here for? Asking me what you did wrong? You're an uneducated brat, not learning well at such a young age, but already learning how to act and deceive people?"
As she spoke, the woman squatted down and picked up the ring from the crumpled paper on the ground, saying, "You stole my ring and still dare to pretend to be innocent. I saw with my own eyes that my ring fell out of your pocket. There are also surveillance cameras around. Do you still want to argue? You little thief!"
"I'm not a thief!" Ye Tong quickly retorted.
"Hmph, not a thief? Then why did my ring fall out of your pocket? Do you know how expensive this thing is? You dare to steal it. With the price of this ring, your whole family couldn't afford to compensate!" the woman said coldly.
"I found it on the sink..." Ye Tong's words were cut off as she was slapped again.
"Nonsense, my ring fell on the sink, it's not yours. You picked it up and put it in your pocket, and you dare say it's not stealing?"
Ye Tong originally wanted to say that she picked it up and was planning to come out and find the waitress to help find the owner. Unfortunately, this aunt didn't even give her a chance to speak, and her words made her head buzz.
"What!? Stealing a diamond ring."
Seeing the diamond ring that the woman had just picked up, the male waiter also immediately recognized its considerable value.
He couldn't help but feel speechless. This child actually stole something? That's a serious problem. No matter whose colleague's sister she is, he couldn't protect her anymore.
"I didn't steal it, I found it..." Seeing that the aunt couldn't be convinced, the male waiter beside her also misunderstood. Ye Tong quickly turned her head to explain to the male waiter, but before she could finish her words, she was kicked again.
She was kicked directly to the ground by the woman next to her.
"Auntie, don't hit Tong Tong. Tong Tong really didn't steal anything. It hurts... wuwuwu..."
The woman's shoes were extremely hard, and when they landed on Ye Tong's delicate body, it left a bruise. It hurt so much that she couldn't even breathe.
She quickly used her small hands to cover the painful area, barely allowing herself to breathe without touching the painful spot.
Ye Tong, who had been enduring and staying strong all this time, finally couldn't bear it. Tears streamed down her face, and of course, the pain was only a small part of the reason for her tears. The majority of it was the injustice she felt from being wrongly accused.
She didn't steal anything at all. Why wouldn't the aunt listen to her explanation and instead hit her? Ye Tong felt a wave of grievance and wanted to find Brother Mo to cry to.
At this moment, the woman completely ignored how heavily she had hit a child. Instead, when she saw Ye Tong crying, she had a condescending and mocking attitude as she scolded, "So what if you found it? Does finding something mean you can take it for yourself? Does finding something mean you can hide it in your pocket? Then what's the difference between that and stealing from someone else?"
"I didn't hide it..." Ye Tong endured the pain in her body and struggled to stand up to defend herself.
She was genuinely worried that the owner had lost something valuable and would be anxious. Leaving the item in its original place would risk it getting lost for various reasons, so she took it upon herself to carefully keep it and planned to give it to the waitress later to help find the owner. There was no intention to hide it.
"Still trying to talk back!" Seeing that this little girl was caught red-handed and still unrepentant, the woman rushed forward and slapped her twice.
At this point, Ye Tong's originally tender little face was already swollen and red.
Seeing that the customer was getting angry and not holding back, and considering that this girl might be the sister of a colleague, the male waiter didn't want her to be beaten too badly. He quickly squeezed between the two and tried to appease, "Customer, I'm really sorry for this unpleasant incident. After all, she's just a little girl. The lesson you gave her earlier should be enough, and she will definitely remember not to do it again. Please calm down first. Your health is important. Don't let anger affect your well-being."
"Not bad for a waiter at Maple Forest. You know how to talk. For your sake, I'll let her go this time." The woman snorted coldly, put on the ring, and looked at Ye Tong again, saying, "You brat, remember, don't let me catch you stealing again, or I'll break your legs."
"I really didn't steal anything, you've wrongly accused me!" Even though she had been repeatedly beaten, if she didn't steal anything, she didn't steal anything. Despite her young age, Ye Tong had her own stubbornness and dignity. She absolutely refused to accept such baseless accusations.
Even if she were to be beaten to death today, she would not admit to something she didn't do.
Her mother has always taught her not to do anything bad, and she has always listened to her mother. It is impossible for her to do anything bad!
Why would this aunt falsely accuse herself? She just can't understand.
Clearly, her mother had said that if she found someone else's belongings, she should try her best to take care of them and hand them over to the police or the store manager so they can be returned to the owner. That's exactly what she did.
Why would this aunt falsely accuse herself? Ye Tong felt extremely wronged at this moment.
Even if she could endure any amount of physical pain without crying, the words accusing her of being a thief were like sharp swords, piercing her tender yet stubborn heart, causing her great pain.
A strong little girl who wouldn't cry no matter how much she was hurt, now felt as if something was blocking her throat, making her want to cry her heart out in the arms of someone she could trust.
"You little thief, I have spared you already, yet you still dare to talk back. Fine, you won't get away with what happened today. This ring is worth one million, stealing something so valuable, I spared you this time, but you're not satisfied. So today, I will skin your family alive!"
"There's no point in arguing with a little brat like you. Quickly call your parents over, I will settle this with them!" the woman coldly snorted.
"Wuwuwu... Brother Mo...!" Seeing the woman continuously accusing and scolding her, Ye Tong couldn't help but burst into tears. This cry immediately attracted the attention of many people around.
The waitress who had brought Ye Tong over earlier hadn't gone too far, as she was worried that Ye Tong might not remember the room number correctly. So she was waiting nearby.
However, just as she was waiting, the headwaiter called her away to do something.
When she came back, she heard the crying sound and hurriedly ran over.
At first, she thought Ye Tong had come out of the restroom and couldn't find the room number, causing her to cry in distress.
But she didn't expect to see clear red handprints on Ye Tong's face, and her little face was visibly more swollen than before.
She was shocked and couldn't figure out what had happened for a moment. She quickly rushed over and picked up Ye Tong, comforting her while gently patting her back. She asked the male waiter next to her, "What happened?"
"Do you know whose sister she is?" the male waiter asked in surprise.
Then he explained the whole incident and asked the female waitress to apologize on behalf of Ye Tong and calm the customer down.
By this time, many people had gathered around.
After listening to the male waiter's account of what had happened, many people started pointing and whispering about Ye Tong and the female waitress.
