A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)

Chapter 174 Eat Together

Ye Fan eventually opened the door for them, but of course, he also had to suffer an earful from them.

"Are you deaf?! So many of us were yelling at you and you just pretended not to hear us?! If you don't

want to stay in this family anymore, then get lost! Go back to your lousy little village!" Han Li went on an

angry tirade. She was so angry that she gritted her teeth.

Her family had made a trip all the way here but Ye Fan wasn't polite to them at all. Of course Han Li Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

was furious.

"No manners at all! You're really from the countryside and you don't know anything about formalities at

all. My family is here and you don't know how to greet them either?!" Han Li shouted angrily at Ye Fan

again.

But Ye Fan peered around and looked utterly confused. "Mum, where are they? I don't see any of your

family members around."

Han Hai and the rest were going to die from their anger soon.

What did Ye Fan mean by that? He didn't see them as humans now?

"Are you blind?! My brother is standing right in front of you and you can't see him?!" roared Han Li back

angrily.

Ye Fan looked like he suddenly realized this fact and quickly smiled apologetically at Han Hai, "Oh, so

it's really Uncle Hai!”

"When I called out to you earlier, you didn't respond, so I thought that there was a problem with my

eyes and I saw wrongly. But it looks like the one with eyesight problems isn't me. You know, when

people get old, their hearing and their eyesight start to deteriorate, so Uncle Hai, you'd better take good

care of yourself and don't work too hard," Ye Fan continued in a sarcastic tone.

"Humph! I don't need a country bumpkin to worry about my health!" Han Hai's expression darkened

and didn't want to respond to Ye Fan's sarcasm. He scoffed coldly and went downstairs.

"Change out of your slippers and bring us to Mu-Cheng's new office," ordered Han Li. She didn't bother

hiding the disdain and irritation in her voice.

Everyone else went downstairs to wait for Ye Fan to get changed and lead the way.

"Yu-Hao, don't be mistaken. This useless idiot might be Mu-Cheng's husband in name, but it's all for

show. We've never treated him as our son-in-law and Mu-Cheng has never liked him. They've been

married for three years but they've always slept in separate rooms. Mu-Cheng has never even let him

hold her hand before. If Mu-Cheng's muddleheaded grandfather hadn't forced us to take him back then,

Mu-Cheng would never have agreed to marry a country bumpkin like him."

Han Li continued on, "Our family has nothing to do with the Qiu family anymore, so my husband and I

will take charge of Mu-Cheng's future happiness and stop listening to what others say. I'll get them to

divorce in a few days, then it'll be up to my husband and I to decide who Mu-Cheng marries, isn't it?"

Han Li kept explaining things to Sun Yu-Hao on the way back downstairs as if she was afraid that he

might misunderstand the situation.

But Han Li was really good with her words. She was basically telling Sun Yu-Hao that he could marry

Mu-Cheng, but only if he treated Han Li and Qiu Lei well. Otherwise he could forget about it.

Sun Yu-Hao wasn't an idiot and he could tell what Han Li was really trying to say. He smiled and

replied, "Auntie Han, then I'll have to trouble you and Uncle about Mu-Cheng and myself."

"Don't worry. If Mu-Cheng marries me, I will definitely be able to take better care of her than Ye Fan. By

the way, these are presents that I got for both of you from Jianghai, I hope you will like them." Sun Yu-

Hao passed Han Li and Qiu Lei an exquisite gift box.

It was a set of gold jewelry. One was with the Goddess of Mercy on it, and the other had the image of

Buddha on it.

One was for Qiu Lei and the other one was for Han Li.

Sun Yu-Hao had really put in some effort to butter up to Qiu Mu-Cheng's parents.

Han Li was pleasantly surprised. She eagerly hugged the little gold Buddha necklace and made Qiu Lei

put it on for her there and then.

"Yu-Hao, don't worry. You're such a bright boy and you know what to do, I like a son-in-law like you.

After you have dinner with Mu-Cheng tonight, then we're all set to go," laughed Han Li as she stroked

the little gold Buddha around her neck. Her heart was filled with honey.

Han Hai had told her all about Sun Yu-Hao's background already.

Sun Yu-Hao was the heir to Baiyi Group in Jianghai. His wealth and family background wouldn't be any

less than Chu Wen-Fei.

If her daughter could marry this rich boy here, then not only would Qiu Lei and herself be able to bask

in his glory. The Qiu family would never look down on them again!

Ye Fan got changed and came downstairs after they were done talking.

But just when Ye Fan was about to get into the car with them to drive to Qiu Mu-Cheng's office, Han Li

literally pushed him out of the car.

"You're really shameless, huh! Yu-Hao's car costs nearly a million and you want to take it without even

saying hello to him? Aren't you afraid of dirtying his car? Ride your scooter and lead the way. There's

no space for you in the car anyway," Han Li just chased Ye Fan out like that.

Han Fei-Fei and the rest just looked on gleefully. They looked at Ye Fan with great disdain in their eyes

too.

"Dad, what did I tell you? Ye Fan is definitely no big shot! Mr Chen must have gotten the wrong person

that day. Which big shot would humble themselves and bother about a live-in son-in-law? But I really

admire how thick-skinned this country bumpkin really is. That's how he was willing to marry into the

family and endure the last three years of eye rolling and humiliation," laughed Han Fei-Fei as she

shook her head.

After that, they all hopped into the car.

But it was really too ridiculous to say that there wasn't enough space in the car. They knew that they

had to pick Qiu Mu-Cheng up as well, so they had driven two cars -Han Hai and his daughter in one,

while Han Li and Qiu Lei took Sun Yu-Hao's car.

And even with two cars and plenty of space, they refused to let Ye Fan take the car.

Ye Fan had no choice but to ride his scooter and brought them to Qiu Mu-Cheng's new office.

By the time they got to the office, Qiu Mu-Cheng had just knocked off.

"Hello, Mu-Cheng. We meet again.” Sun Yu-Hao straightened his jacket and took a bouquet of flowers

out from the car as he smiled and walked towards Qiu Mu-Cheng.

"Young Master...Sun? Why are you here?" Qiu Mu-Cheng was clearly startled by Sun Yu-Hao's

presence.

She thought that only her uncle had come over. She didn't expect Sun Yu-Hao to be here too.

"Mu-Cheng, what are you saying? Yu-Hao has taken precious time out from his busy schedule just to

see you, so you should be only too happy, right? And look at what Yu-Hao gave us! It's pure gold! After

Yu-Hao becomes part of our family, you can enjoy a life of bliss too.”

"Why are you still staring into space? Yu-Hao is giving you flowers, so why aren't you taking them from

him? Look at how nice Yu-Hao is to you! Not like that useless idiot over here who will never have the

money to buy you flowers, never mind a gold necklace," Han Li praised Sun Yu-Hao to the skies while

stepping hard on Ye Fan with her words.

Ye Fan didn't say anything. He was still

seated on his scooter with a foot on the ground. The sun shone down on him and he cast a shadow on

the ground.

He looked so sad and lonely, he seemed out of place with Han Li and Sun Yu-Hao's cheerful chatter.

It was as if he was just an outsider.
