A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 540

"Yang, you have to help me to explain this." Su Qian's face paled significantly when she heard what Su Yang said.

She was most afraid of her father. If he knew about this, he would probably beat her to death.

"This is going to be difficult. Our dad has already decided that Ye Fan will be his son-in-law. Our aunts and uncles all seem to know about Ye Fan. Even your grandmother said that we should bring Ye Fan home one of these days."

"What?! Grandma and all our relatives already know?" Su Qian's eyes were huge. "Why did Dad just go about talking about him to other people? Ye Fan is already married, so he can't become his son-in-law."

"And whose fault is it? You were the one who spouted nonsense in the first place," retorted Su Yang angrily. "But Qianqian, there's a way to solve this problem."

"How?" Su Qian looked at her brother with great anticipation.

She looked like someone who had fallen into water and was hanging onto the last blade of grass that could possibly save her from drowning!

"The only way is to snatch him away from Miss Qiu. You're from a good family, and even though you're not from some super wealthy family, you're still considered a member of high society, plus you're gorgeous. You're an elite who studied overseas, so in terms of studies, background and looks, you aren't any less than Miss Qiu. If you take the initiative and be more aggressive, I'm sure Ye Fan will take the bait.”

"What the hell?! Yang, Mu-Cheng is my best friend, and you want me to steal my best friend's husband? What ridiculous idea is this?! If you like Ye Fan so much, you can marry him yourself. I already have another man in mind. I'm not marrying anyone else besides Mr Chu! And if Mr Chu doesn't want to marry me, then I'm going to find that amazing harmonica player. Besides these two men, I'd rather be single for the rest of my life than to marry someone I don't fancy."

Su Qian strutted off angrily in her high heels and left Su Yang behind with a confused and shocked look on his face.

"Mr...Mr Chu? My goodness, you have really wild dreams. But if you can really win the heart of Mr Chu, I'll accept that too.

And what's this nonsense about a harmonica player?! Qianqian, wait for me!” Su Yang shouted as he ran after her.

The eldest brother was like a father - of course he was worried about his younger sister's future marriage.

He didn't want his younger sister to be cheated by some indecent fellow.

After leaving Haiyuan Restaurant, Qiu Mu-Cheng didn't go home and got Ye Fan to send her to the office instead.

Mufan Real Estate was in the midst of developing and there were many things for her to attend to, plus Qiu Mu-Cheng herself was a very strong career-minded woman. Since Ye Fan was already back home, then she had to return to the office.

"Ye Fan, why don't I arrange for you to work in the company? Then you don't have to stay home and suffer my parents' insults. You're good at fighting and even the head of Dragon Tiger Martial Arts Academy is afraid of you, so why don't you become my bodyguard? Three months' probation, $5,000 a month. Don't complain about it being too little, once you pass the probation period, I'll increase your salary according to the financial status of the company," said Qiu Mu-Cheng with a faint smile as she looked at Ye Fan.

After what happened earlier, Qiu Mu-Cheng started to like Ye Fan even more than before.

Even the way she spoke to him wasn't icy like before and she sounded much gentler.

Ye Fan just shook his head and laughed. "If I go to work, then who's going to do all the housework?"

"We can hire a housekeeper," replied Qiu Mu-Cheng.

"A housekeeper earns at least $7,000 or $8,000 a month these days. My $5,000 salary can't even hire a housekeeper," laughed Ye Fan.

Qiu Mu-Cheng hadn't given it that much thought. After Ye Fan pointed this out, she suddenly realized he was right.

"But Ye Fan, if a man stays at home to do the chores, he will always have to suffer the nasty words of others. Are you really unafraid of what others say about you?"

Qiu Mu-Cheng's eyes were filled with worry and she felt like she was letting Ye Fan down.

In the past, Qiu Mu-Cheng also thought that Ye Fan was a useless coward who didn't care about improving himself and just did nothing at home but leech off her.

But now, Qiu Mu-Cheng's opinion of Ye Fan had changed completely.

So he wouldn't care for a few thousand bucks.

He had turned Qiu Mu-Cheng down only because he didn't have much time left in Yunzhou.

At Yunwu Lake.

Ye Fan sat at the lakeside and talked to Han over the phone.

"Dragon Master, you have conquered Jiangdong and settled Yanjing already. The plan we executed over the last ten years has been successful. Operation Sparks is reaching its end soon. So can we now start Operation Ablaze?"

What were these Sparks?

That was investing in talents, supporting the powerful and turning them into Sparks!

What about this Ablaze?

On the orders of the Dragon Master, everyone would bow to him and make their way to the Chu family and he would emerge the king. That was how he was going to set everything ablaze!

Ye Fan had created this empire and invested in so many people and places to raise these Sparks. His ultimate goal was to march up to the Chu family and make them pay for the humiliation he had previously suffered!

And now, ten years had passed.

The time was most certainly ripe.

Han had been waiting in silence for many years now, so he was now excitedly asking Ye Fan if they could continue with Operation Ablaze.
