A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)

Chapter 323 A Late Night Visit

Ye Fan shrugged and put on a helpless expression as he quickly defended himself, "Heaven is my

witness! I didn't do anything improper to your little cousin!"

"Then why does she want to marry you out of the blue? She didn't even let you hug her in the past,"

questioned Qiu Mu-Cheng sternly.

She clearly remembered how Lu Wen-Jing was so embarrassed and mad after accidentally lunging

into Ye Fan's arms.

And now, just a few days later, her little cousin's attitude towards Ye Fan had changed immensely. Qiu

Mu-Cheng couldn't help feeling shocked and suspicious.

But Ye Fan merely smiled and said, "How would I know? I suppose after spending a few days with me,

she thinks I'm extraordinarily handsome, elegant, intelligent and brave, so she's been bowled over by

my dashing good looks and talent. So that's why she's been secretly ogling at me and wants to marry

me."

"And doesn't your bestie want to marry me too? Su Qian's father just called me the other day again to

chase me about when we're getting engaged and married. Everyone thinks your hubby has exceptional

charm, you know," said Ye Fan as he smiled calmly and seemed so proud of himself.

Every man would feel proud that so many women wanted to marry him after all.

But when Ye Fan said it, he could feel the air around him instantly become slightly colder.

He turned and met with Qiu Mu-Cheng's icy eyes and darkened expression.

Qiu Mu-Cheng picked up a pillow from her bed and hurled it viciously at Ye Fan.

"You shameless scoundrel! Go and die!" shouted Qiu Mu-Cheng furiously. Ye Fan made a run for it the

moment he realized that things weren't looking good.

This girl was truly Han Li's daughter alright. Even their split-second mood swings were identical.

She was so apologetic just moments ago and now she looked ready to murder him.

But Ye Fan wasn't angry. He shook his head and laughed instead.

Life ought to be filled with ups and downs like that.

After leaving the bedroom, Ye Fan went to the study. He wanted to do some reading before going to

bed.

On the other side, Qiu Mu-Cheng was still very angry with Ye Fan. Her nose was almost crooked from

rage.

Any woman would probably be upset if her husband was involved with her best friend.

So of course, Qiu Mu-Cheng felt the same way. When she heard Ye Fan mention proudly that Su

Qian's father had been urging him to get engaged and married to her BFF, it made Qiu Mu-Cheng even

madder.

How could her own husband become engaged and marry some other woman?

He couldn't do this even with her own besties!

Qiu Mu-Cheng suddenly felt deep regret in her heart.

Back then, she shouldn't have put up an act with Su Qian at that auction. Now Su Qian's father couldn't

stop clinging onto him and worse still, he was trying to pair Ye Fan with her best friend. The mere

thought of it annoyed Qiu Mu-Cheng.

Fortunately, Su Qian didn't seem interested in Ye Fan. Or else, Qiu Mu-Cheng would be in an even

more precarious position.

But after hearing what Ye Fan said, Qiu Mu-Cheng immediately realized that many people were

genuinely drawn to her husband.

In the past, Qiu Mu-Ying said that Ye Fan was involved with Xu Lei from Hongqi Group. Then her

girlfriend's father tried to make him his son-in-law. Even President Gu Long-En of the Brush Painting

and Calligraphy Association wanted to matchmake his granddaughter and Ye Fan too. Now her little

cousin, Lu Wen-Jing, wished to marry Ye Fan as well.

Qiu Mu-Cheng suddenly discovered that her husband had gotten so popular without her realizing it.

"Looks like I have to keep an eye on Ye Fan from now on."

Qiu Mu-Cheng decided in her heart to become more vigilant in the future, otherwise someone might

really snatch her husband away.

Qiu Mu-Cheng was incapable of focusing on work anymore with those thoughts in her mind. Since it

was late, she showered and went to bed.

At the same time in Jingzhou, a city 100 miles away from Yunzhou.

A black Cadillac was driving against the backdrop of the night and quietly pulled up at a standalone

bungalow.

The car door opened and a sullen-looking man dressed in a suit got out of the car.

He looked at the brightly lit luxurious bungalow in front of him and told his subordinates softly, "All of

you, stand outside and wait. No one is to follow me in."C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

"Are you sure you don't need us, Mr Zhou? I'm worried about your safety. After all, you are now..."

A few of Zhou Sheng's subordinates behind couldn't help raising their concerns when they heard these

orders.

Zhou Sheng waved his hand, "It's okay. Don't worry. I'm going in to beg him to help. If I bring too many

people in, it will seem a little rude. So just wait outside and don't enter without my orders."

"If he agrees to help me, then that asshole in Yunzhou is done for. None of the people who offend me

have ever come to a good end in all my decades in the trade! He's just a brat from Yunzhou. Does he

think I can't do anything to him? He made it

impossible for me to go home and destroyed my career. I want him to die in the wilderness!”

Zhou Sheng's voice sounded icy cold. His malicious tone was filled to the bone with murder and

monstrous amounts of resentment.

Zhou Sheng hated Ye Fan to the core!

If it weren't for him, there was no way the nearly perfect plan he and Liu Chuan-Zhi came up with would

have fallen apart.

Although he managed to regain his freedom for the time being using his Jingzhou connections, his

company was closed down, he was bankrupt, and even the cops were after him.

Ye Fan had put him in such dire straits, so he wasn't going to let Ye Fan off that easily.

Although Da Biao's mission failed, Zhou Sheng had one last card to play. He couldn't take it lying down

if he didn't slaughter this brat.

He had come to beg the owner of this bungalow to help deal with that so-called Master Ye.

Since Zhou Sheng had ordered them to do so, his subordinates obediently waited by the car. Before

Zhou Sheng left, they offered their well wishes, "We hope Mr Zhou's wishes come true!"

BOOOM!

As their respectful voices soared to the sky, Zhou Sheng turned and walked into the bungalow before

him.

In the living room.

The scent of tea wafted in the air and the warm dim lights lit up the entire room.

A man dressed in a sleeping robe sat on the couch with his legs crossed as he held a cup of freshly

brewed Longjing.

From the looks of it, Zhou Sheng had arrived when the man was preparing to sleep. He was even in

pajamas already.

This man wasn't old and was even considered somewhat young. But Zhou Sheng was especially

deferential to him.

He stood with his head lowered as he bowed and said apologetically, "Young Master Ting, my

apologies for disturbing your rest at this hour."

"I'm glad you realized," replied the man coldly. He was clearly somewhat impatient, "But Zhou Sheng,

you are quite bold. How dare you show yourself in Jingzhou now that you're a wanted man? Didn't I get

you air tickets so that you could go abroad? Why haven't you left? Why on earth are you still in

Jingzhou? Do you have a deathwish?"
