A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 102 Are You Still Ye Fan?

"Lei Ao-Ting! You disobedient brat!"

"Is he telling the truth?"

After hearing what Shen Fei had to say, Lei San paled immediately. And his eyes bulged as he turned to yell at his son.

Lei Ao-Ting was so frightened that he started trembling all over. "Dad, I... I didn't know that was Mr. Chu. Mo Wen-Xuan and his family told me that he... he was just a useless live-in son-in-law. So I... I..." Clearly, Lei Ao-Ting knew he was in big trouble. He did not dare to speak as boldly as he had done before. So he just stood there with his head bowed and tried to explain his circumstances in a pained voice. At this moment, Lei Ao-Ting was feeling rather down in the dumps. He regretted not running away with Chen Hai-Sheng and Liu Zhao-Ran when he had the chance.

If he had gotten away earlier, he would not be getting a scolding right now.

"Disobedient brat!"

"Oh, you disobedient brat-"

"Are you trying to ruin our family?"

Master Lei San was so frightened that he walked over and kicked Mo Wen-Xuan to the floor.

"Master San, what are you doing?"

Mo Wen-Xuan was bewildered.

If you want to teach your son a lesson, go ahead! Why did you have to kick me?

"Ah, I kicked the wrong person."

Lei San had been so worked up that his kick miss its intended target.

And so, after steadying himself, he turned around to slap Lei Ao-Ting. This time, he did not miss.

"You disobedient brat!" "Are you trying to drive me to an early grave?"

"You incompetent bungler!"

"Mo Wen-Xuan and his family are dumbasses, but why must you be one as well?"

"Our family has prospered for several generations, but it will soon be ruined in your hands!"

Lei San was furious. He had worked so hard to gain Ye Fan's forgiveness after the foul-up at Sheng Tian Restaurant. But who would have thought that his own son would go offend Ye Fan again.

"Dad... dad, I am sorry. From now on, I will never associate with that idiot, Mo Wen-Xuan." Lei Ao-Ting was sprawled over the floor and half of his face had swelled up from Lei San's slaps. Just then, he was feeling shocked and scared. He knew he had caused serious trouble for his family.

At this moment, Lei Ao-Ting wished he could kick Mo Wen-Xuan and his family to death.

If Mo Wen-Xuan had not told him that Ye Fan was just a country bumpkin, he would not have offended Ye Fan and made his father angry.

"Isn't it a bit late to say that now?"

"Quick, get up. Follow me and go apologize to Mr. Chu!"

Lei San's body was shaking with anger as he pulled his son up.

Before leaving, Lei San turned around to look at Mo Wen-Xuan and his family. "Back in the day, the old master of the Mo family had a good reputation. But how come his descendants are such assholes?" "How dare you get my son involved in your reckless acts?"

"From today onward, there will be no place in Jingzhou for the Mo family!"

"Hmph~"

Lei San snorted coldly and left in a huff.

Chen Ao and the others departed together with Lei San. Since Ye Fan had already left, there was no reason for them to stay.

All at once, half of the guests were gone from the hall. Only the ones who had come to support Han He and the other Hans stayed behind.

They were mostly the directors of small factories, mayors from the neighboring villages and colleagues from Han Hai's company.

"Mayor Han, I have something going on at home. I will take my leave now."

"Mr. Han, I have a sudden toothache, so I have to go now."

"My dog just fell down from the building, so I have to hurry home~"

But who would have thought that, right after Chen Ao's departure, the guests who had come to celebrate Madam Han's birthday all started to make excuses to leave. They were acting as if the Hans had the plague.

After all, Chen Ao had already spoken. The Hans were finished in Jianghai.

Under the circumstances, only those with a death wish would dare to associate with the Hans.

If they got involved with the Hans and suffered the same fate, no one would be able to save them.

In just a short while, all the guests had already fled the hall.

And only the Hans were left inside the huge room. All of them looked pale and had panicked expressions on their faces.

"Father, is it really over for our family?"

Han Fei-Fei's eyes were red and she looked like she was about to cry. Clearly, the events earlier had caused her to panic. But no one spoke and no one answered her.

Han Yu and her family were in a daze, while Han Hai looked pained and low-spirited.

And, just then, Madam Han was looking like a lifeless corpse as she sat in her seat of honor.

After a long while, she let out a deep sigh.

"Hai, was I wrong?"

No one other than herself could feel the regret and misery contained in that sigh.

Madam Han only realized just now that Ye Fan, the live-in son-in-law they had all despised, was actually such a powerful VIP.

Even the King of Jiangdong, Chen Ao, had come to pay his respects to him!

If Ye Fan had stayed with them, then their family would definitely become the number one family in Jianghai.

But instead, their family had chased away such a great man.

It was only now that she realized just what sort of opportunity they had missed!

If they had known how things would turn out, then they would rather die than speak a word against Ye Fan.

"I was a blind fool! I have ruined the Han family-"

Within the hall, Madam Han sighed a deep sigh. She sat limply in her chair as the tears streamed down her face.

And the other Hans were also filled with regret.

Han Hai finally understood why Ye Fan had said that Jianghai was just a pittance in his eyes. And why he had declared that he could just hand over Jiangdong to Qiu Mu-Cheng, if she wanted it.

At that time, he had thought that those words were just youthful bravado. But now, Han Hai realized that Ye Fan had been telling the truth.

Even VIPs like Master Li Er and Chen Ao have to curry favor with you. Ye Fan, you do have the might to back up your words.

Han Hai smiled ruefully, as a look of self-deprecation and bitterness came over his face.

"Mu-Cheng, you go shopping with Chen Nan first. I have something to discuss with Mr. Chen and the others. It will just take a moment." Just then, Ye Fan had already arrived at Sheng Tian Restaurant.

Qiu Mu-Cheng was still looking dazed. Clearly, today's events had affected her deeply. Even now, she still had not recovered her wits.

Just then, Chen Ao turned to his daughter and said, "Nan-Nan, you must take good care of Madam Chu. You must not let anything happen to her. Do you hear me?"

"Dad. Ye Fan. Please do not worry. I will take good care of Mu-Cheng." Once she removed the mask she wore for the workplace, Chen Nan looked just like any other nineteen year old teenage girl. At this moment, her pretty face was filled with youthful exuberance as she smiled at Ye Fan.

"Ye Fan-"

But, just as Ye Fan was about to go upstairs into the restaurant, Qiu Mu-Cheng suddenly reached out and grabbed his hand. And then, like a panicked kitten, she looked at the average-looking man standing before her.

"Are you... still Ye Fan?"
