A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 421

"I can explain everything! You can't blame me. It's not like I can control myself. Also, you were the one who fell on me. We didn't really have body contact since we were still dressed," explained Ye Fan in the room as he blushed in shame.

Ye Fan's explanation only made Qiu Mu-Cheng even angrier. She was so angry with this shameless man that her face was distorted.

"Stop talking about it! Shut up!" roared Qiu Mu-Cheng furiously.

Han Li and Qiu Lei were even woken up by their commotion.

Han Li came out to ask Qiu Mu-Cheng what was going on. But how could Qiu Mu-Cheng bring herself to say it?

So she could only stop fighting with Ye Fan and go back to her room with her cheeks blushing.

After Ye Fan had escaped a close brush with death, he sighed in relief. His forehead was already dripping with cold sweat after the events that transpired.

"Damn, I didn't even look as pathetic when the Chu family surrounded me with 100 men to annihilate me," said Ye Fan as he smiled bitterly after returning to the room.

Ye Fan felt that wives were certainly the scariest biological creatures on earth in his heart.

The night went by quickly.

The next day, Qiu Mu-Cheng was clearly still traumatized by the incident, so she ignored him when she saw Ye Fan. Intense embarrassment and coldness remained in her eyes.

Ye Fan could only shake his head bitterly and smile.

But Ye Fan could understand how she felt too. Qiu Mu-Cheng's fury came as no surprise after the episode last night since his wife was so innocent that she hadn't even held another man's hands before.

But Ye Fan wasn't worried and reckoned

Qiu Mu-Cheng would forget about it in a few days.

After Qiu Mu-Cheng left for work, Ye Fan received a call from Han.

"Young Master, I have the tickets. The flight is tonight at 8PM at Jianghai International Airport. It's a direct flight to Yanjing," said a deep voice quietly through the phone.

Ye Fan expressionlessly replied okay.

Since it required some time to get to Jianghai, Ye Fan left immediately after receiving Han's call.

Li Er pulled up outside Liuyuan Residential District 30 minutes later, where Ye Fan was already waiting for him.

"Mr Chu," greeted Li Er respectfully the moment he saw Ye Fan.

"Let's go. Send me to Jianghai International Airport.”

Ye Fan got into the car without saying anything else, and they went straight to Jianghai.

Ye Fan sent Qiu Mu-Cheng a text message on his way there, "Mu-Cheng, I'm going to Yanjing tonight. Take care."

By the time Qiu Mu-Cheng saw Ye Fan's text message, it was noon.

She didn't expect Ye Fan to leave in such a hurry, so she called immediately to see if Ye Fan had everything he needed and told him to take care.

"Also, I have a class gathering next month. You must come with me. If you don't, you're going to get it from me!” said Qiu Mu-Cheng angrily.

This stubborn woman had such a roundabout way of expressing her reluctance to part with Ye Fan.

Ye Fan laughed gently and replied, okay.

"Mr Chu and Mrs Chu are so close that it is the envy of others."

Li Er couldn't help sighing after Ye Fan hung up the phone.

Ye Fan didn't reply and looked out of the window quietly.

Ye Fan didn't expect how small the world was and that he would bump into Li Xiao-Hong again.

"Mr Chu, my uncle targeted you at Mount Tai, but you didn't bear a grudge about it and even let them off. Thank you so much for doing that.”'

Li Xiao-Hong asked the passenger sitting next to Ye Fan to change seats with her. Then she sat down next to Ye Fan and expressed her gratitude happily.

Ye Fan shook his head and said, "It's nothing. You've become prettier since we last met. You're a lot more radiant now."

Li Xiao-Hong certainly experienced a vast change since Ye Fan last saw her.

Nothing changed much with Li Xiao-Hong physically, and it was clearly more of a huge spiritual transformation.

Li Xiao-Hong used to be just a young lady who worked part-time at a restaurant, but she was truly a positive and confident undergrad now.

Li Xiao-Hong blushed instantly after Ye Fan praised her.

Then Ye Fan changed the subject and asked why Li Xiao-Hong was heading to Yanjing.

Ye Fan found out after chatting with Li Xiao-Hong that her father came looking for her recently.

He wanted Li Xiao-Hong to go to Yanjing and further her studies.

"My father went out to work when I was a kid and never came home since then. I always thought he had passed away and only found out recently that he was alive. He resides in Yanjing, makes a lot of money, and runs his own business. He wanted to make it up to us when he found out that my mother and I was scraping to get by and wanted to bring us to Yanjing. My mother couldn't forgive him, so she didn't go, but she told me to go to my father. My mother said that the best universities are in the capital, so I will have a better future if I go. I didn't want to disappoint my mother, so I decided to go to Yanjing to find him," said Li Xiao-Hong slowly.

Ye Fan couldn't tell from Li Xiao-Hong's voice whether she resented her father or missed him instead.

Perhaps Li Xiao-Hong was going to Yanjing so as not to oppose her mother's wishes.

Ye Fan couldn't help seeing himself when he looked at the gentle and filial young woman.
