A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 238

"This...this is..."

The staff at the entrance couldn't help but gasp when he saw the tickets that Ye Fan had.

"What's wrong? Don't tell me they're really fake tickets?" asked Su Qian worriedly. She had been worried all this time about whether there were issues with this set of tickets.

After all, Su Qian didn't think someone like Qiu Mu-Cheng was qualified to get these tickets in the first place.

Even her own father, Su Yuan-Shan, didn't get an invitation.

Qiu Mu-Cheng wasn't confident either and asked quietly, "Hello there, is there a problem?"

"No, no, not at all. Sir, Madam, please follow me," replied the staff quickly as he politely led the way to bring the three of them to a private room.

Just as Ye Fan and the two ladies went upstairs with the staff, a young man was frowning not too far off from them.

"Yu-Hao, what's wrong? Do you see someone you know?" asked Han Fei-Fei.

Sun Yu-Hao replied, "Fei-Fei, look over there. Is that Mu-Cheng and that Ye Fan?"

"That's not possible, Yu-Hao. You must have been mistaken. That country bumpkin pretended to show off and tricked everyone, so he must have been chased out of Shanshui Hall by now. How could he be here? Besides, even if they wanted to come, they're not eligible to. Even if that country bumpkin managed to get into Shanshui Hall on account of Young Master Shen, he definitely won't be able to get in here. Shen Fei is just a wastrel and isn't as impressive as you are," said Han Fei-Fei confidently without even looking.

Sun Yu-Hao nodded. "You're right. Alright, let's not talk about this. We'd better find a seat."

Sun Yu-Hao went into the hall with Han

Fei-Fei and her father to find the seats stated on their tickets.

Ye Fan and the other two ladies had reached the private room upstairs.

"This premium private room has the best view of the auction tonight. You can look over the entire hall through the French windows. I hope that everyone will enjoy the night and bid for something you fancy. If you need anything, please let me know,” said the staff and he left quickly after that.

Only the three of them were left in the private room.

"Oh WOW! We actually get a private room! We can see everything happening in the hall from here! There's even a bed to sleep on along with food and drinks. This is really too luxurious, isn't it? Gosh, I have to send my friends photos to show off and widen their horizons! HAHA!"

Su Qian had already gone crazy with excitement. She had attended auctions before, but she had only been part of the crowd seated in the stands and had to share the space with so many other people. Now that she got a private room, she was so excited and felt so proud and honored, and the superficial side of her was satisfied.

Su Qian was already so excited, so Qiu Mu-Cheng was even more excited. This was the first time she was enjoying such service and was pleasantly surprised.

Only Ye Fan remained calm and just sat down on an armchair.

The moment he sat down, Li Er came calling.

"Mr Chu, is this service up to your standards? If you need anything, just let me know and I'll send someone over immediately. Also, I was afraid that you might find the auction boring, so I added a bed in your room. The bedsheets and all are brand new, the room walls are soundproof and the glass is a one way mirror, so you don't have to worry. By the way, that important item is just next to the bed and it's a good quality one, so just use it if you like."

Li Er laughed strangely over the phone and Ye Fan had no idea what on earth he was rambling about.

What was this old fellow up to?

But Su Qian was surprised to find that Ye Fan didn't seem happy about it or have any indecent thoughts about them. His eyes were as clear as water and looked like he wasn't interested in them at all.

The auction had already started by this time.

"Where's Mr Chu? Which one is Mr Chu?"

Su Qian ran over and looked down through the huge French window in hope of finding that incomparable back view that had shattered the world with his power back at Mount Tai.

But after looking around, Su Qian was still disappointed.

She didn't see anyone who looked like he could be Mr Chu.

Qiu Mu-Cheng remained calm as she remarked, "Qianqian, there's no point looking for him. If even we get a private room, what more someone powerful like Mr Chu who stands at the top of all of Jiangdong?"

The disappointment on Su Qian's face was even more apparent now.

"Doesn't that mean I won't get to see my Mr Chu? Mu-Cheng, how did things turn out like that? I've been waiting for this day for so long. I've been looking forward to this day for so long and I hate to give it up like that...”

Su Qian hung her head and her mood went down along with it. She was like an eggplant left out in the snow and looked utterly defeated.

Qiu Mu-Cheng immediately shook her head and laughed bitterly. "Qianqian, don't be so sad. You can't get to see Mr Chu, but perhaps you could bid for the item that Mr Chu is putting up?"

"Remember? Mr Chu has put something up for this auction."
