A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)

Chapter 258 The Two Enemies Meet Again

"After hearing what you said, I nearly believed it even though I'm supposedly the main character in this

story. Young Master Sun, I think you have the potential to become a scriptwriter, or even an actor. Even

if you acted as yourself, you'd still be one of the most outstanding characters in the drama. If you

switch to becoming an actor right now, you might be in time to be nominated for some awards at the

end of the year even," said a faint chuckle from behind everyone.

Everyone in the room turned around to look.

The door that was shut fast creaked and suddenly opened.

It was all dark outside the house.

HUUUUUU...

The ominous night breeze brought the coldness of autumn and blew into the house with a howl as if it

was a demon.

A slim young man carried a sinister smile and appeared against that vast night sky.

He was in a pair of faded jeans with a pair of white sneakers from an unknown brand. He looked so

ordinary.

But this very insignificant looking man who would have been easily lost in a crowd had suddenly

appeared at this time, causing everyone's emotions to suddenly rise like the waves.

"You...you are..."

"Ye Fan?!"

"The useless bum is here?!"

"How...how could this be?"

"How...how did you get out?"

"Did you...did you escape from jail?"

Han Hai's face paled while Sun Yu-Hao was filled with shock. Han Li and Qiu Lei were so frightened

that they jumped up from their chairs.

"What...what are you trying to do now?¹

"Ye...Ye Fan, you'd better think it through carefully. You've only been sentenced to ten years now, but if

you escape from prison to get back at us, you'd be sentenced to death."

"Calm...calm down, you must remain calm..."

Han Li and Qiu Lei were so scared.

At first everyone was just curious as to how Ye Fan had suddenly appeared, but Han Li had guessed

that Ye Fan had escaped from jail almost immediately.

Han Li had watched a lot of dramas and movies and they often showed that the first thing evil people

did when they successfully made it out of jail was to take revenge on everyone they hated and

everyone who had humiliated them before. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

So when she saw that Ye Fan had come back and assumed he had escaped from jail, she was afraid

that Ye Fan was angry and would allow his evil side to take over, and hack them to pieces.

To her, this sort of escapee was definitely violent in nature. And this was a live-in son-in-law who had

lived under such oppression for the last three years.

When one's mind was twisted, it could become very frightening indeed.

After her parents said that, Qiu Mu-Cheng started panicking as well and tried to persuade Ye Fan too.

"Ye Fan, did you really escape from jail?"

"Why did you do such a thing? You'd better turn yourself in now! Otherwise the consequences will be

even worse!" Qiu Mu-Cheng was both angry and anxious and walked over to drag Ye Fan back to the

police station.

Even though she believed that Ye Fan had cheated on her, they had been husband and wife for three

years and she didn't want to see Ye Fan go down the wrong path.

When Ye Fan saw how anxious and worried Qiu Mu-Cheng was, he felt a strange warmth fill his heart.

But Ye Fan shook his head and laughed as he said to Qiu Mu-Cheng, "Mu-Cheng, I didn't escape. I've

been released without any charges."

"It was all a misunderstanding and the police arrested the wrong person. They've cleared it up and so

of course they had to release me. Look, they've already removed my handcuffs.”

Ye Fan waved his clean hands in front of Qiu Mu-Cheng.

But Qiu Mu-Cheng was completely stunned. "Released without charges?"

"But didn't Young Master Sun say that you've already been sentenced to ten years in jail? You mean..."

Qiu Mu-Cheng immediately spun around to glare angrily at Sun Yu-Hao.

"Exactly, Mu-Cheng. I'm also wondering where Young Master Sun got this news about myself being

sentenced to ten years. Or perhaps, you spun this story from the beginning to cheat Mu-Cheng. What a

wonderful show you've put up! Trying to take her away while I'm not around, eh?" Ye Fan also stared at

Sun Yu-Hao with a strange smile on his lips while he spoke very forcefully.

Sun Yu-Hao probably started feeling guilty after both Ye Fan and Qiu Mu-Cheng glared at him. His face

turned red and his eyes avoided their gaze. He couldn't answer them at all.

The truth was just as the two of them had guessed. After Ye Fan was arrested, Qiu Mu-Cheng asked

Sun Yu-Hao to use his connections to find out what happened, but Sun Yu-Hao never told anyone to

investigate this matter.

Everything he said earlier was just a story he made up to scare Qiu Mu-Cheng.

Sun Yu-Hao didn't expect Ye Fan to be released after just two days.

Could the police really have made a mistake?

While Sun Yu-Hao was still wondering about this, Han Li had secretly called the police and said that

they had an escapee in the house and he was going to kill them, so she wanted them to quickly come

over now.

Han Hai and the rest also looked warily at Ye Fan and told Qiu Mu-Cheng to stand further back.

"Mu-Cheng, don't listen to him talk rot. This fellow must have escaped from jail. No escapee would say

that they're guilty. What's this about being arrested wrongly? Do you think the police is as stupid as

you? If they didn't have proof, why would they arrest you? I'm sure you must have escaped from jail!"

said Han Hai sternly and insisted that Ye Fan must have escaped from the prison.

Ye Fan didn't know how to explain himself either.

This matter was so difficult to explain.

But Ye Fan couldn't be bothered with their attitude. He looked at Qiu Mu-Cheng and asked, "What

about you, Mu-Cheng?"

"Do you also think that I've committed a crime and I've come running out from jail?"

Ye Fan continued to stand where he was calmly and looked at Qiu Mu-Cheng as he waited for her

answer.

The room suddenly fell silent.

Qiu Mu-Cheng's heart was feeling fearful as she stood there and heard Ye Fan ask her this question,

but she ended up shaking her head. "No, Ye Fan, I believe you."

Qiu Mu-Cheng replied without any hesitation.

Ye Fan wasn't anywhere near perfect, but after knowing him for the past three years, she was sure that

Ye Fan was an extremely principled man.

She had already suspected from the start that the police had made a mistake.

But just after Qiu Mu-Cheng had said this, the room door was kicked open like a slap in her face.

Seven or eight fully armed police officers rushed in. One of them was a slim and pretty figure and didn't

take long to press Ye Fan against the floor and her beautiful long legs were tightly pressed against Ye

Fan's neck. She shouted coldly, "Put down your weapons!"

"Raise your hands! An escapee who doesn't know how to repent and even came out to make trouble?

How dare you! Do you know that an even more severe punishment awaits you?" a terribly familiar

voice rang out beside Ye Fan's ear.

Ye Fan immediately laughed bitterly. He was speechless.

This world was really too damned small.

"Seriously, Miss Ren, do you have an issue with me or something? I was just released by you and now

you're doing this to me again? What have I done to you? Peeked at you while bathing? Deflowered

you? I've really had it this time! Stupid woman, get off me now!!''
