Chapter 130 Malicious Competition
Orthopedic ward of the Second Municipal Hospital.
An hour and a half felt very long.
Fortunately, it was a close call. Chen Da was pushed out.
His minimally invasive surgery went very smoothly, and he is now lying in bed fast asleep, with the monitor emitting a regular and steady sound.
Wang Xiulan barely slept last night. Now that her nerves have relaxed, she couldn't stay awake any longer and fell asleep on the folding chair next to the bed, still clutching her phone tightly in her hand.
Chen Yuan sat on the plastic stool at the foot of the bed, his whole body slumped down.
His eyes were bloodshot, but he was unusually clear-headed.
He had just tucked the blanket around his father when his cell phone suddenly vibrated violently in his pocket.
"Wang Xiaoya?"
Chen Yuan tiptoed out of the ward, closed the door behind him, and then pressed the answer button.
"Hello, what can I do for you?"
"Hello Mr. Chen, this is Wang Xiaoya. I apologize for bothering you, but I'm wondering how your father is doing?"
"I'm fine, thank you for your concern."
"It's alright, that's good."
Chen Yuan frowned. His relationship with Wang Xiaoya was that of a chef and a customer. She must have something else to say for calling him.
"Is there something else you need on your call?"
"Of course."
Wang Xiaoya's voice on the other end of the phone sounded a little angry for some reason, and she spoke very quickly.
"Brother Chen! I bet you're too busy and didn't watch the video online this morning."
"Let me tell you, I was on the bus this morning and passed by the gate, and I saw that the old Chen's Steamed Bun Shop had changed its name, and the storefront looks exactly like yours!"
"I reckon it was changed in the last day or two. They probably wanted to muddy the waters, and then there was a commotion inside. I didn't hear it clearly, and I was in a hurry to get to work, so I left."
Wang Xiaoya's language organization skills are not particularly good, and coupled with the fact that she was probably really angry, her speech was somewhat incoherent.
"Then, while I was on the bus, I quickly checked my phone and, sure enough, I saw the local trending topics, and a lot of people who were being misled were actually criticizing you!"
"I sent it to you, take a look, this store is too arrogant."
Immediately afterwards, a series of notification sounds rang out.
Wang Xiaoya forwarded several short videos and many photos from the scene.
After hanging up the phone.
Chen Yuan leaned against the wall in the corridor and clicked on the items one by one.
The newly installed "Vegan Breakfast Shop" sign looks brand new.
Zhao Dan stood behind the counter, hands on her hips, yelling and cursing. Chen Hui, sleeves rolled up, approached a thin female student with a fierce expression.
Customers were recording videos with their phones, etc.
Chen Yuan's brows furrowed more and more tightly.
He welcomes fair competition, but changing to a signboard that is almost identical to his own while having such a terrible attitude—isn't this just trying to gain attention while simultaneously tarnishing his own reputation?
Just as Chen Yuan was thinking about these things.
Wang Xiaoya sent another message.
I was in a rush when I passed by the door, but I managed to overhear a few things.
There is a person.
[More than one person said they thought there was something wrong with the meat!]
【Mr. Chen, should I report their business directly to the Market Supervision Bureau for you?】

[Boss, look, one of them is a minor internet celebrity. This is a clip from his livestream. I also think the meat looks a bit strange.]
After expressing his gratitude, Chen Yuan clicked on the links to take a look.
Most of the comments under these videos are insightful.
Chen Yuan's fingers tightened slightly around his phone, a chill emanating from his very bones.
Copying signs and intercepting customers are not the most intolerable things for him.
But using inferior meat to impersonate fresh minced meat, and then using their own brand to ruin their reputation, is like throwing dirty water on their own head.
He absolutely cannot tolerate this!
Chen Yuan did not hesitate.
Use screenshots of the video content as evidence.
They felt they had reported it to the market supervision bureau.
After finishing his work, Chen Yuan put his phone back in his pocket.
A draft swept through the ward corridor, carrying a strong smell of disinfectant.
Wang Xiulan, who was keeping vigil at the hospital, opened the door.
Seeing that his expression was somewhat serious, he quickly asked.
"What's wrong, Xiao Yuan? Did something happen?"
"It's okay, it's okay. Why don't you sleep a little longer? The doctor said my dad should be awake this afternoon, but he'll probably be groaning and unable to sleep tonight again."
"I can't sleep, why don't you take a nap?"
"Need not."
Despite saying that, Chen Yuan still yawned.
Wang Xiulan and Chen Yuan sat at the door of the ward, chatting idly. Noticing that her son seemed preoccupied, Wang Xiulan sensed something was wrong and asked him what was wrong.
"Did something happen at the store? You don't look quite right."
Chen Yuan breathed a long sigh of relief.
Chen Yuan had too many worries lately and didn't know who to talk to, so he poured out everything that had just happened.
Wang Xiulan's eyes welled up with tears after hearing this.
"How can someone be so shameless? We must report him! We can't let this kind of person get away with anything!"
"I understand, Mom."
Although Wang Xiulan didn't offer any useful advice, Chen Yuan felt much better after he had said everything.
He figured that neither of them had any appetite for breakfast, so he went downstairs for a walk, bought some food, and ate it to replenish their energy.
It was evening.
The lights in the hospital corridor were turned on.
Chen Yuan stood at the end of the corridor, his phone pressed to his ear, making a final confirmation with the staff of the market supervision bureau.
Although his store is not registered as a trademark, it has already gained a certain level of influence.
What Chen Hui and his wife did could be considered unfair competition.
The staff member said in a serious tone: "Okay, we have already filed a case and registered it. Law enforcement officers will come to the site to verify it at 9 a.m. tomorrow."
Chen Yuan responded in a deep voice.
After finishing his official business, he opened a short video platform and searched for keywords.
Meanwhile, we found the minor internet celebrity Akai that Wang Xiaoya emphasized. At the same time, there was also a video by someone that avoided being caught, which received a lot of reposts and likes.
After Chen Yuan followed him, he sent him a private message. There was no long explanation or attempt to defend himself; he simply left a short and sincere message.
Hello, I'm Chen Yuan, the owner of a purely vegetarian breakfast shop. The shop you visited this morning was not ours; the signboard and menu were used by someone else, causing you a wasted trip. I'm very sorry. Our shop will reopen tomorrow morning at 7 AM, and I'd like to formally invite you to try the breakfast at our authentic purely vegetarian breakfast shop. If you have time, I look forward to your visit.

After sending.
Chen Yuan placed his phone face down on his lap, resigning himself to his fate.
A few minutes later.
"Oh right, it's time to pick up the kids!"
Half an hour later.
Ah Kai had just finished editing a video and was sprawled on the sofa rubbing his temples.
He opened his private messages as usual.
“Eh…”
