A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 189

"Mrs Lin, just like what you said earlier, everyone belongs to a particular circle. Everyone eligible to enter the auction hall are the most wealthy and powerful of Jiangdong and you might not even be able to get in even if you're worth a few billion. Mrs Lin, you don't belong in this circle in the first place. Even if you go, you'd just be embarrassing yourself," Qiu Mu-Cheng said calmly as her words echoed in the cafe.

Qiu Mu-Cheng smiled as she looked at Han Wenxue. The smile on her exquisite face was so genial, it would have made anybody smile back.

But when Han Wenxue heard these familiar sounding words, her face turned bright red and she hung her head without saying anything. There was nowhere for her to hide herself.

Of course Han Wenxue had noticed that Qiu Mu-Cheng had used the same words she used to insult Qiu Mu-Cheng earlier.

And now Qiu Mu-Cheng had used the exact same words on her. Han Wenxue was embarrassed and her face was almost as red as freshly roasted pork knuckles.

Many of the onlookers shook their heads and chuckled. They looked at Han Wenxue like they were looking at a clown.

Han Wenxue couldn't stand being in the cafe anymore and quickly ran off with her things.

"HAHA! Mu-Cheng, you've done a good job of insulting her back. I couldn't stand her right from the start. Just look at how arrogant she looks! She got to where she is today by being a mistress! I don't know what she's so proud of even." Su Qian was feeling so gleeful when she watched Han Wenxue run off with an embarrassed expression on her face.

The two ladies didn't stay either and left the mall too.

"Why are you still daydreaming? Carry our things! We're going home! Oh my gosh I can't believe you fell asleep! Your wife was insulted and you actually managed to fall asleep! I can't believe you! Seriously, marrying you was the worst thing to happen to Mu-Cheng!" Su Qian glared at the man sleeping on the sofa and flew into a rage. She felt like life was so unfair to her BFF.

Su Qian didn't bother waiting for him either. She dragged Qiu Mu-Cheng along to the carpark.

Ye Fan laughed bitterly and stretched his arms, then reached down to pick up the shopping bags.

Just when Ye Fan bent over to pick the bags up, a man in a suit didn't notice the bags near his feet and kicked several of them over. The man ended up stumbling backwards by a few steps and nearly lost his balance.

"What the hell? Which idiot dared to trip me? Tired of living?” Jin Bao immediately became furious and started shouting.

But when he saw who it was, Jin Bao's angry expression immediately froze.

He looked like a deflated balloon and nearly crumbled to pieces.

"Mr...Mr Chu, I'm so sorry, I didn't see that it was you..." said Jin Bao in fright. He was about to pee his pants and nearly burst into tears.

He was so focused on Qiu Mu-Cheng earlier that he didn't notice Ye Fan was around too.

And now he had offended Ye Fan by accident. Jin Bao was so scared that he had a terrified expression as he kept bowing to Ye Fan to apologize.

Everyone watching was stunned.

Wasn't this that Miss Qiu's husband?

Wasn't he supposed to be a useless live-in husband?

Why was that man in a suit being so frightened and polite to him?

"Could it be that the really powerful one isn't Miss Qiu but this ordinary looking

man?"

"Or perhaps those tickets were actually meant for this man?”

Many of the onlookers widened their eyes and were feeling terribly shocked.

Ye Fan just ignored all these responses.

"Why did you take so long? Where did you go?” Qiu Mu-Cheng asked Ye Fan.

Ye Fan just grinned. "It's nothing, ran into a small problem but it's all resolved."

Qiu Mu-Cheng nodded and didn't ask further. Then she calmly said, "You should be free on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, right? Go out with me."

"Of course I'm free. Accompanying my wife is an important task and even if I'm not free, I'll make time for you," replied Ye

Fan with a smile.

Su Qian just snorted, "Do you even know where Mu-Cheng is bringing you?”

"So many people want to go but don't get the chance! You're just basking in Mu-Cheng's glory! But seriously, Mu-Cheng. Are you really going to bring him along? He's just a beggar from the countryside and a useless live-in husband. Aren't you afraid that he'll embarrass you?"

Su Qian kept shaking her head and sighing. She still felt that giving the ticket to someone like Ye Fan was an insult to the event.

"I don't know how much karma you accumulated in your previous life, but you were actually lucky enough to marry Mu-Cheng in this life," sighed Su Qian again and again. Qiu Mu-Cheng told her to stop it.

"Stop it? Why? I need this country bumpkin to know that he's gotten all these privileges because of YOU. Otherwise he might become complacent and ungrateful to you," retorted Su Qian angrily.

Ye Fan just listened to their conversation and smiled without talking.

Su Qian and Qiu Mu-Cheng would never have imagined that Li Er had given Qiu Mu-Cheng those tickets because he wanted Ye Fan to attend the auction.

If not for Ye Fan, these two ladies wouldn't even have gotten a ticket to sit outside the auction hall.

So Ye Fan wasn't basking in their glory at all. The two ladies were the one benefitting from him.
