A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 498

"Ignorant child! You're too arrogant! You're a complete fool!"

Xu Feng-Liang shouted three times one after another when he heard Ye Fan's words of youthful arrogance.

Each time he shouted, it felt as though a thunderclap had exploded.

"Beat them up with a single punch? Who do you think you are? Do you think you are some god from heaven or the devil from hell? Sun Wukong from the 'Journey to the West' could achieve 72 transformations and had supernatural powers, but he couldn't escape from his shackles and was pinned down by Buddha under Mount Wuzhi. Even the lead in a legend didn't have the determination to free himself. How dare a young man from the countryside who knows nothing about the world like you speak so arrogantly? You are as foolish as a praying mantis that tries to stop a car. How dare you covet Lei? Don't even dream about it! Not in your lifetime!" said Xu Feng-Liang nonstop angrily with his face livid.

Then Xu Feng-Liang turned and left in a huff.

He didn't turn to look at Ye Fan again.

Xu Feng-Liang thought that since Ye Fan could make the Jiangdong tycoons submit to him, he was a talented young man even if he couldn't compare to the Yanjing elites.

But now it seemed he was overthinking it.

"Mr Chu? You are just an idealistic youth who doesn't know your limits!"

Xu Feng-Liang didn't feel like wasting any more time on someone as arrogant as Ye Fan.

Before heading back into the arena, Xu Feng-Liang told one of his men coldly, "After the match ends, bring Xu Lei back to the Xu residence right away. If anyone stops you, don't hold back and just kill him! Then throw his body into Yanqi Lake as fish feed!"

Xu Feng-Liang deliberately spoke loudly so that Ye Fan could hear him.

Then Xu Feng-Liang entered the arena.

The Xu family's men looked pitifully at the skinny young man who was still standing on the deck.

"Aren't you happy to be alive?”

"Why invite death?"

The Xu family's men shook their heads as they smiled. Then they left quickly too.

In their eyes, Ye Fan was close to dying now that he had offended Xu Feng-Liang.

A light breeze swept by.

The mist-covered Yanqi Lake extended into the distance.

The lake was as clear as a mirror, and ripples were surging across the lake surface.

Ye Fan stood in the cold wind with his skinny body erect.

And the sea of stars were reflected in his profound eyes.

"Xu Feng-Liang, you think Yanjing is the capital of China and Great China Building is the highest point in Yanjing. You think the Lin and Zhao families are all giants whom I can't compare to. But you have no idea that Yanjing is nothing but a tiny piece of land to me. No matter how tall the Great China Building is, it is no higher than my abilities. No matter how powerful the Lin and Zhao clans are, they will get trampled beneath my feet in the end. You just want to King of Yanjing, but I want to be the King of the World!"

Ye Fan stood loftily over Yanqi Lake with his hands behind him.

His cold laughter and words were absolutely imposing!

Ye Fan returned to his seat moments later.

"Fan, did my uncle make things difficult for you?" asked Xu Lei softly the moment Ye Fan returned. She was worried about them.

Ye Fan smiled calmly and replied, "No, he didn't. Lei, don't worry. If you don't want to do something, not even the head of the Xu family can force you.”

Guo Ya-Wen felt so happy from hearing this that it felt as though she had eaten honey, and she beamed particularly brightly.

"Ye Fan, my husband says he will turn me into Yanjing's elite in 30 years. What about you? How many years does Lei have to wait before she can sit among the elites in the arena?" sneered Guo Ya-Wen.

"The likes of him? Wenwen, stop joking. He couldn't even bring himself to pay for lunch, so he probably won't be able to leave that third-rate city even in a hundred years. He won't even get to sit at the center of the arena and rise to power in Yanjing even in his next lifetime. Then our poor Lei will have to live out a wretched existence with him for the rest of his life," said Meng Han in disdain before Ye Fan could reply.

But Ye Fan shook his head and laughed as he said, "I don't need 30 years to reach the center of the arena. If I wanted to, I could walk up right now!"

PFFFT!

Guo Ya-Wen couldn't contain herself and burst out laughing right away the moment she heard Ye Fan.

"Haha! Lei, what is Ye Fan's education level? Did he even graduate from high school? Does he think we were talking about something as easy as walking up the stage? If it were that simple, then anyone could do it. The important thing is that your seat and your status have to be on par. Or else, it's one thing to be embarrassed, but another to die trying!" said Guo Ya-Wen as she ridiculed Ye Fan.

Meng Han and Lei Dong-Bao looked at Ye Fan like he was an idiot.

"The fighting match is about to begin! The head of the Xu family will be coming onto the stage to say a few words."

Someone suddenly shouted out.

Everyone fell silent in an instant.

All eyes looked at the center of the arena.

A middle-aged man stood there proudly.

He looked at the crowd and announced deeply that the match was commencing!
