Two teenagers who peed into a pot of broth at a hotpot restaurant have been ordered to pay 2.2m yuan ($309,000; £227,000) to two catering companies in China.
The incident, which happened in February at a Shanghai branch of China’s biggest hotpot chain Haidilao, sparked widespread criticism after the 17-year-olds posted a video of their drunken act online.
Fine might be a better word option here instead of pay. I was reading this title and wondering to myself, why would someone pay so much to pee in soup.
It wasn’t a fine though. They were ordered to pay the catering companies for damages and lost revenue, doesn’t say anything about a fine.
If you read my second sentence you’ll see it was just more about my humorous interpretation of the title that was written.
