Chapter 681 Gutter Cooking Oil
Within the stairwell, a man was engaged in a telephone conversation.
"What? Another journalist wants to come for an interview? Fine, then you arrange the time. It's annoying, not giving people a moment to rest," he complained, though his face betrayed his pride.
His assistant across from him flattered, "That's because Mr. Liu, your kindness has led to the development of affordable and healthy oil, significantly reducing everyone's cost of living. Now, customers, especially restaurant owners who need oil, are most grateful to you."
Hearing this, Mr. Liu nodded with satisfaction, patting his beer belly that was threatening to burst open, smiling, "It's only natural. This is what an entrepreneur should do."
As he spoke, he raised his chin and leaned on the railing, continuing the conversation.
Meanwhile, Spirit stared at him with fierce and icy eyes, his cold hand slowly approaching, ready to push him down forcefully, when suddenly the door was kicked open.
"Stop!"
Zhouzhou hurried over anxiously. Seeing that spirit's hand hadn't touched anyone yet, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Mr. Liu turned around, giving her a strange look. Not recognizing her, he grumbled and left, soon disappearing into the elevator.
Observing this, Spirit was about to swiftly follow, but Zhouzhou suddenly grabbed him.
"Stay still, don't move."
Being held back by her, Spirit looked at her with some astonishment. "You can see me?"
According to his voice, which was pleasant, magnetic, he was still a young man.
Zhouzhou tapped her ear and nodded, "Yes, uncle, you can't harm people. If you harm someone, you'll become an evil spirit and won't be able to reincarnate."
Hearing this, Spirit fell silent for a moment, then chuckled lightly, "If I can get rid of this scum, then my death won't be in vain."
With that, he tried to continue chasing after Mr. Liu, but the chubby hand holding his wrist remained unmoved.
Spirit was taken aback, lowering his gaze to Zhouzhou, only to see the little girl leisurely pulling out a chicken leg from her bag and munching on it, her chubby cheeks puffing up, looking soft and tender.
Seeing him looking at her, the little girl smiled at him, resembling a little steamed bun.
Spirit even doubted if he had exerted too little force earlier, causing the man to break free. This time, he used all his strength to fly forward swiftly.
He thought he could pass through the wall directly, but before his hand touched the door, he was forcefully pulled back.
Stumbling, he almost fell to the ground, looking up incredulously at the little girl standing motionless in place.
Zhouzhou puffed her cheeks, feeling a bit unhappy.
"Uncle, don't move around. I told you not to harm people. If you harm someone, I'll have to scatter your soul."
She stood there, not knowing whether to swallow the meat or spit it out.
Qin Lie patted her small head and said, "It's okay, this was fried by your grandma at home, the oil is fine."
Hearing this, Zhouzhou breathed a sigh of relief.
Thank goodness.
But what about eating out next time?
Will those bosses also use this oil to cook for her?
Qin Lie also thought of this problem, his face darkening significantly.
He looked at Spirit across from him, asking, "What's going on? Wasn't the use of gutter cooking oil banned long ago?"
This issue had been discovered ten years ago.
How could it reappear?
Spirit shook his head, "It's strict in big cities, so they can't sell it there. They target users in the villages instead."
"It's cheap to buy, so many people like to use it, and they'll feel grateful to that scum."
As he spoke, he became even angrier.
Clearly, it was the person who harmed them, yet he was enjoying the gratitude of others. Why should he!
"And, besides the grease traps of big restaurants like you mentioned earlier, they also use waste from slaughterhouses as the source of gutter cooking oil. After decolorization, deodorization, and high-temperature refining, it's sold out. This kind of oil is equally harmful to health."
Now, not only he but also Zhouzhou was extremely angry.
Food is the top priority in life. If there's a problem with the oil used for cooking, how could the body be healthy?
Suppressing the churn in her stomach, Zhouzhou clenched her small fists. "I'll go beat him up!"
He's so bad, how can there be such a villain in the world?
He's downright evil!
Zhouzhou was furious, ready to run out.
But Qin Lie grabbed her, soothingly patting her small head, signaling her not to be in a hurry.
He looked at Spirit on the opposite side, his eyes sharp, with a hint of inquiry.
"Who are you? How do you know these things?"
