A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)

Chapter 276 What...What Do You Want

"Mu-Cheng, why be sad over all these people who don't deserve it? Come along, let's go home!" When

Qiu Mu-Cheng started crying from being so upset, Ye Fan stood up for her again.

He reached a hand out to gently wipe away the tears from Qiu Mu-Cheng's face. He felt his heart break

as he looked into her eyes.

Nobody else could truly understand the pain in Qiu Mu-Cheng's heart like Ye Fan did.

That was because Ye Fan had gone through a similar experience himself.

Qiu Mu-Cheng now looked so much like Ye Fan back then.

Back then, Ye Fan had also treated his father as his greatest pillar of support and the Chu family was

the place where he felt a great sense of belonging to and he entrusted his life to this family.

But this family that Ye Fan had respected so much had tried to harm him again and again, and

eventually they threw himself and his mother out of the family heartlessly.

And even after doing that, the Chu family never let the two of them off.

Ye Fan had faced so many assassination attempts by his family over the past years.

Sometimes Ye Fan couldn't believe how vicious the Chu family could be. It wasn't enough to just chase

him and his mother out of the house, but the Chu family wanted them dead too!

That sense of belonging he once had slowly faded after he and his mother faced harm time and again.

Eventually it was completely overtaken by hatred.

Humans eventually matured as the years passed.

But hurt and defeat were catalysts to making one mature faster.

That was how it was with Ye Fan.

The years of leading a tough life had already created a strong heart in Ye Fan that surpassed most

others.

And now, Qiu Mu-Cheng was going to experience the same change in herself.

Ye Fan was sure that Qiu Mu-Cheng was going to become more and more mature after going through

all these setbacks.

She would finally be able to remain calm after the Qius' continuous attacks.

Once Qiu Mu-Cheng no longer felt part of the Qiu family, she would also be able to face their attacks

calmly.

But before leaving, Ye Fan held Qiu Mu-Cheng's hand and his cold gaze fell upon Qiu Guang and the

rest.

Ye Fan's eyes were as cold as a ferocious tiger. The presence he had seemed as pressurizing as a

high mountain, making Qiu Guang and the rest feel their hearts shudder.

Was this fellow really Ye Fan?

Why was his presence so overwhelming?!

"What...what are you trying to do? I'm...I'm warning you! There are CCTVs here!" Qiu Mu-Ying and her

husband started trembling.

They had clearly recalled how Ye Fan had beat them up a month ago at Master Qiu's house when they

chased Qiu Mu-Cheng out of the family.

At that time, Ye Fan also looked as immensely powerful as he did now, and all their hair stood on end.

Qiu Mu-Ying and her husband were so frightened that they immediately stood up and took several

steps back because they thought that Ye Fan wanted to beat them up.

But Ye Fan just smiled.

But that smile was both disdainful and authoritative at the same time.

"Uncle Guang, I hope you will remember what you just said to Mu-Cheng. The corporate world is like a

battlefield and there's no place for sympathy! One day, you will hear these words again."

Ye Fan's words echoed and hit their eardrums loudly like gold clattering to the floor.

"Mu-Cheng, let's go.” Ye Fan left with Qiu Mu-Cheng.

Since things had already come to this, there was no need to humble themselves and beg them.

He wasn't going to allow his woman to suffer even the slightest bit!

But after this incident, Qiu Mu-Cheng had really given up on the Qius and didn't feel for them anymore.

Since they had become rivals, then there was really no need to feel sympathetic or sentimental

anymore!

After Ye Fan and Qiu Mu-Cheng had left for quite a while, the Qius finally felt their shaken hearts calm

back down.

"That useless bum is trying to show off! He's just an incapable live-in son-in-law and he dares to speak

to us like that? I'm going to teach him a lesson someday!" spat Qiu Mu-Ying angrily.

The Qius treated Ye Fan as a useless man who married into their family and didn't like him in the first

place. Qiu Mu-Ying and Chu Wen-Fei had been hit by him before, so they hated him even more.

But after that day, Qiu Mu-Ying and Chu Wen-Fei had both already decided in their hearts that they had

to find a chance to teach this country bumpkin a lesson so as to get back for the humiliation they had

suffered. Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

But this was not the time to talk about these things.

Qiu Guang quickly poured Wang Xing-Duo a glass of wine and said apologetically, "Manager Wang, I'm

so sorry. The Qius have such an unfilial daughter and you had to witness this embarrassing side of our

family."

Wang Xing-Duo just waved his hands, but he was a little curious. "That Miss Qiu is also from your

family? Mr Qiu, looks like your family is really doing well and your younger generation is full of talented

people. She's so young and she has her own company already."

"She's no talent! Manager Wang, you have no idea. This cousin of mine has high standards but she

can't reach them herself, otherwise she wouldn't have allowed her husband to marry into the family.

Her husband sounded so impressive and so forceful earlier, but he's just a country bumpkin and a

penniless lad."

"Besides, she's just running a small company and it still hasn't been able to officially open for business

even after a few months, so I think it's going to collapse soon! She doesn't have anything to fall back on

and she dares to say such tough words? She doesn't even have basic filial piety, and she's trying to go

into real estate? She's going to pay through her nose for it!" chortled Qiu Mu-Ying as she continued to

put Qiu Mu-Cheng and her family down in front of Wang Xing-Duo.

Wang Xing-Duo immediately shook his head when he heard what Qiu Mu-Ying said.

"That's true. This Qiu Mu-Cheng has very little experience and isn't capable enough but she wants to

enter the real estate market? If I let her in, then she'll mess up this industry. Don't worry, I won't let them

pass next year either."

The table was soon filled with merry laughter and chattering again.

It was as if they had completely forgotten what just happened earlier.

When they were almost done eating, Qiu Mu-Ying decided to talk business.

"Manager Wang, Qiushui Real Estate submitted our application nearly a month ago, so surely your side

is almost done with the approval? When will it be done? Can it be done by this month? You know that

time is money when it comes to doing business. Every month in delay would cost us a lot in salaries,

rental and other overheads. Could you hurry them along and get the approval within the next few

days?"

"Well this..." Wang Xing-Duo paused and looked like he was in a difficult position. "Yingying, Wen-Fei,

given our relationship, I'll definitely try my best to push them. But you know, the checks that our

department has to go through are many and very complex, so it's going to be tough to get it out within

this month.”

"This..." Master Qiu began to get anxious. "Manager Wang, we'd really need you to put in more effort."

"Master Qiu, that's not nice of you to say that. I'll definitely put in effort and I've been working on this

case for you all this time. But I can't go against the regulations just because you ask me to, right?"

Wang Xing-Duo glared back at Master Qiu.

Qiu Mu-Ying cursed inwardly when she heard these words.

This wily old fox was yet another eagle who wasn't going anywhere until he caught a rabbit to eat.
