A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 806

Ye Jian was ghastly pale when he was carried away with a look of astonishment in his eyes. He looked so dejected that it seemed as though he was completely sapped of all energy.

Ye Fan's words clearly hit him hard.

Ye Jian was nothing but an inexperienced young man, so he couldn't compare to Lei San and the others in terms of experience and temperament.

The worldview he had held for years went under a vicious attack, so he was incapable of accepting the truth so quickly.

But so what if he couldn't accept it?

No one gave a hoot!

Ye Fan and Ye Jian were just strangers.

From now on, they had nothing to do with each other.

And Ye Fan merely said those things today to tease him.

After Ye Jian left, the atmosphere reverted to peace and quiet.

But Ji Yi-Hai and the others kept staring at the threatening footprint and the broken stone on the ground. They were unable to calm themselves even after a long time.

"No one would have thought that a practitioner of martial arts can become so strong that he can withstand guns and cannons! No wonder the provincial mayor sees so highly of Ye Fan. He even allowed Ye Fan to expand his territory and quietly let him become the King of Jiangdong! He must be worried about Ye Fan's ties with the martial arts circle," thought Ji Yi-Hai secretly in his heart. He felt even more frightened and respectful of Ye Fan.

Since Ji Yi-Hai was a man of high position, he clearly knew something about the martial arts circle.

And he knew that they existed.

However, everything Ji Yi-Hai knew about them was pure hearsay.

After all, there were very few martial artists around, so most people might not get to see one their entire lives.

Also, there were special government departments in charge of people like them. Despite being a government leader, Ji Yi-Hai knew little about the martial arts circles.

It was his first time hearing Ye Fan talk about the martial arts world so systematically, so he was caught by surprise.

When he thought about it this way, Ji Yi-Hai wanted to get along with Ye Fan even more.

Everyone wanted to get close to strong and powerful people!

"Alright now, Mu-Cheng, it is getting late, so you should go. If you keep holding things up, it's going to be nightfall by the time you get back to Yunzhou."

Ye Fan's words broke the silence.

Qiu Mu-Cheng nodded before getting into the car.

Since she drove herself here, she had to drive back.

Ye Fan was worried that she might meet with danger and wanted to get someone to send her back, but Qiu Mu-Cheng turned him down.

"Miss Qiu, have a safe trip!"

"Take care!"

Lei San, Ji Yi-Hai, and the others bade her farewell as she started her engine.

Instead, Qiu Mu-Cheng suddenly craned her neck out while she sat in the car and said to Ye Fan, "Get in and accompany me for a while."

Ye Fan was stunned. After a moment's hesitation, Qiu Mu-Cheng started looking at him coldly.

"What, not willing to?" asked Qiu Mu-Cheng as she stared daggers at Ye Fan.

"Of course not! It's all I could ask for! Every moment I get to spend with my wife is an honor," replied Ye Fan as he chuckled. Then he hurriedly got into the front passenger seat at his wife's orders.

Ji Yi-Hai's eyes twitched hard when he caught sight of how desperate Ye Fan was.

After a long time, he shook his head and chuckled. "One thing subdues another. Who would have thought that the King of Jiangdong is henpecked? Hoho!"

There was no sarcasm in his voice and only sheer envy and reverence.

"Wifey, since you can't bear to part with me, shall I send you back to Yunzhou? At most I'll come back tomorrow."

Qiu Mu-Cheng drove through the streets of Jingzhou with Ye Fan in the car.

Very quickly, they left the city and entered the suburbs.

Cold wind gusted by slowly outside.

In an instant, it felt as though time had stopped.

After a long time, Qiu Mu-Cheng's angry voice came from the car.

"Enough. I'm losing my breath.”

Qiu Mu-Cheng's face was red. Heavens knew if it was out of shyness or lack of oxygen.

Then Ye Fan let her go and said cheekily to the stunning young woman, "Are you satisfied now? If you wanted to kiss me, just say so. We've been married for so long, so it's not like I'll tease you, right? What's the point of beating around the bush?"

Qiu Mu-Cheng's face turned crimson when she heard those words.

Her angry voice rang instantly!

"You shameless creep! Go and die! Who says I want to kiss you?"

Qiu Mu-Cheng picked up a box of tissue in the car and hurled it at him, and Ye Fan hurriedly got off the car.

Then Ye Fan watched as Qiu Mu-Cheng left.

"You creep! Even after you have become Mr Chu, you are equally shameless."

Qiu Mu-Cheng smiled as she watched the skinny silhouette in the rearview mirror disappear.

Her eyes were filled with love and bliss.

"You idiot! You'd better come back to Yunzhou in ten days! Or else, you are going to get it from me!" said Qiu Mu-Cheng into the cold wind before she left.

Qiu Mu-Cheng was already long gone, but Ye Fan stood where he was.

He looked into the distance for a long time in silence.

His heart was filled with guilt.
