A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 484

There was a small-town bearing close likeness to Western European architectural style about one kilometer away from Yanqi Lake.

The streets were paved with marble with gothic structures, so it felt particularly exotic to be immersed in it.

There were surrounded by shops and a sea of tourists.

Xu Lei, Meng Han, and Guo Ya-Wen chatted happily after bumping into each other after so long. They kept talking about the past or sharing knowledge about how their peers were doing. Every now and then, they stopped in front of a shop to admire its contents.

Ye Fan and Lei Dong-Bao followed behind them quietly instead.

Since Lei Dong-Bao was a company CEO, he expected Ye Fan, who was from a small town, to take the initiative to get friendly with him.

But Ye Fan surprisingly ignored Lei Dong-

Bao the entire time.

Ye Fan either kept his eyes on the scenery around them or on Xu Lei.

He didn't even glance at Lei Dong-Bao.

"This brat is so young, yet he is so cocky.”

Ye Fan's behavior undoubtedly made Lei Dong-Bao somewhat angry.

Lei Dong-Bao couldn't resist sneering as he asked Ye Fan, "Friend, where do you work? You must be a capable young man since you have such a beautiful girlfriend."

Ye Fan shook his head and replied, "I don't hold down an important job. I just do what I like. In a way, you can say I'm a jobless man who is chasing his dreams."

Ye Fan spoke jokingly.

But Ye Fan was speaking the truth.

Ye Fan was simply a useless jobless man who lived off his wife from the average person's perspective.

But no one knew about the glorious career Ye Fan had been planning and carving for himself beneath his composed exterior for the sake of pursuing his goals.

"A jobless man? Man, you must be joking! How could a jobless man win the heart of the school belle? In that case, you must be a rich man's son," said Lei Dong-Bao with a fake smile on his face.

Ye Fan continued to shake his head as he said, "Mr Lei, you jest. My mother is simply a farmer from a small town in the countryside."

"Really now?" asked Lei Dong-Bao. He clearly felt even more unhappy in his heart. Although Lei Dong-Bao sounded relatively polite, he obviously sounded a little colder when he spoke, "If you don't want to share it, then just say so. There's no need to come up with some lousy fake identity to fool me.”

Lei Dong-Bao didn't buy a word of Ye Fan's nonsense, not even the punctuation marks used.

Lei Dong-Bao certainly didn't think that a woman as gorgeous as Xu Lei would fall for a jobless man from the countryside.

Women these days were smart, especially the pretty ones. They would put in their utmost effort to rise in status and leech onto the rich and powerful using their beauty.

And Guo Ya-Wen was undoubtedly one of those women.

Despite their fagade as a loving couple, Lei Dong-Bao was keenly aware Guo Ya-Wen only married him for his wealth.

Or else why would Guo Ya-Wen marry a man who was more than ten years older than her instead of a handsome young chap?

Women did that all the time. They competed with their beauty and brains when they were students. After they were married, they compared their husbands and children instead.

It seemed as though they would be a cut above the rest if they won.

Xu Fei pondered before saying, "I don't need anything. Fan wanted to buy me stuff, but I said no.”

"What? Lei, don't tell me Fan hasn't bought you a single gift?” said Meng Han in surprise the moment she heard Xu Lei's words.

Guo Ya-Wen shook her head quickly and said, "That's right, Lei. This boyfriend of yours is too lousy. Even if he doesn't have money to buy a genuine high-end purse, he can get you something cheaper or even a high-quality fake. It's all about sincerity."

Guo Ya-Wen and Meng Han instantly attacked Ye Fan.

Lei Dong-Bao was delighted the moment he heard this. He looked at Ye Fan, who was quietly drinking his coffee. Then Lei Dong-Bao wondered whether the guy spoke the truth earlier on.

Was he really a jobless man from the countryside?

Otherwise, why would he be such a cheapskate and not give a single gift to such a stunning girlfriend?

Xu Lei realized she had misworded herself, so she defended Ye Fan, "It's not true. Fan cares about me a lot and gives me many things, but I have trouble remembering them all now. Oh yes, Fan gave me a present a few days ago for my birthday."

"Oh, what did he give you?" Meng Han and Guo Ya-Wen were both curious.

"A small rusty tripod,” said Xu Lei honestly.
