A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 1075 Qiu Mu-Cheng's Arrival

"Come, let's go look for Shao-Hua! I've got to tell him the good news!" Lu Ming-Feng couldn't contain his excitement anymore and couldn't wait to tell Xur Shao-Hua about the good news. "Come to think of it, where's Shao-Hua?

Why haven't I seen him all night?" Lu Ming-Feng suddenly remembered that he hadn't seen Xur Shao-Hua since they sent Yang Yun and his men off.

"Young Master Lu, Young Master Xu has an appointment with a lady," responded his subordinate.

Lu Ming-Feng immediately burst out laughing.

"This fellow has really decided to let himself go. Let's go and take a look."

Lu Ming-Feng was genuinely curious to see which young lady had mesmerized Xur Shao-Hua to a point where he had forgotten about his buddy. After getting rid of one huge problem, Lu Ming-Feng was in an excellent mood and was full of smiles as he went looking for Xur Shao-Hua.

Xur Shao-Hua was now in a cafe on the sixth story of the hotel.

The ambience was elegant and there was melodious music playing in the background.

When Lu Ming-Feng walked over, he found that Xur Shao-Hua was sitting across from a middle aged man.

The man had an ingratiating smile on his face and was having a pleasant conversation with Xur Shao-Hua, whereas Xur Shao-Hua put on a rare display of politeness and didn't look like the arrogant rich man's son he usually was.

"Huh? Shao-Hua, didn't you say you were going to pick up some girls? Where are the ladies? Why is there only one old man here?" Lu Ming-Feng went right up and sat down next to Xur Shao-Hua.

"Ming-Feng, don't spout nonsense and watch your manners. This is Mu-Cheng's father, and he's a guest I've invited tonight," Xur Shao-Hua introduced the man seated across from them. Lu Ming-Feng was shocked to hear this.

"Mu-Cheng's father? You mean...you mean this is Mr Chu's father-in-law? My god, Shao-Hua, you're amazing! In order to get the girl, you're starting with her father first?"

Lu Ming-Feng was really surprised, but suddenly everything made sense now.

He finally understood what Xur Shao-Hua had been up to during this time.

He thought that Xur Shao-Hua had a new target, but he had thought wrong. Xur Shao-Hua's target had been Qiu Mu-Cheng all this time.

"Ming-Feng, if you keep talking like this, I'll kick you! He's Mu-Cheng's father, so watch your words!" Xur Shao-Hua threw Lu Ming-Feng a dirty stare.

Lu Ming-Feng immediately laughed along.

"Of course, of course. He might become your father-in-law in the near future, so I should be more polite. Waiter! Get some wine for us! Let me toast Shao-Hua's future father-in-law!"

"Oh I couldn't possibly accept a toast from Young Master Lu," said Qiu Lei fearfully as he quickly got up and waved his hands about.

"Why not? You're Shao-Hua's father-in-law, so you are definitely qualified to accept this toast!" Lu Ming-Feng continued to help his buddy along as he kept addressing Qiu Lei as Xur Shao-Hua's father-in-law.

"Ming-Feng, I told you not to spout nonsense. I'm not even together with Mu-Cheng yet. Besides, we went separate ways very unhappily the last time, so I'm not sure if she will accept me yet," said Xur Shao- Hua as he shook his head.

Qiu Lei quickly cut in, "She wouldn't dare to reject you! Young Master Xur, don't worry. I know that daughter of mine well, and she wouldn't dare to disobey us. Besides, you're such a good catch, so it's Mu- Cheng's greatest honor and blessing to have you court her. Even if that Ye Fan weren't dead, I would make Mu-Cheng divorce him and spend her life with you instead."

News of Ye Fan's return had not spread yet, so not many people in Jiangdong knew about it. Qiu Lei and his wife had no idea either.

"Uncle Qiu, I really like what you just said! My buddy here is really a one in a million talent. I don't have to elaborate on his family background and looks, I'm sure. But more importantly, Shao-Hua is a really devoted man. Ever since he saw your daughter for the first time at Mount Yunding, he had given his soul away to Miss Qiu. I invited him to my banquet just a couple of days ago but he refused to go because he missed Miss Qiu," laughed Lu Ming-Feng merrily as he painted Xur Shao-Hua in a good light.

"By the way, where's Miss Qiu? Is she still in Yanjing?" Lu Ming-Feng remembered that Xu Lei took Qiu Mu-Cheng back with her to Yanjing after the incident at Mount Yunding Villa, but he didn't know if Qiu Mu Cheng was back yet.

"She's on the way and will arrive soon. Her mother has gone to the airport to pick her up," replied Qiu Lei quickly.

While they were still conversing, a cab stopped outside the hotel.

The doors opened and two ladies alighted at the hotel.

One of them possessed an incomparable beauty, so even though her hair cascaded down her shoulders very simply, she still looked mesmerizing.

The other lady looked a little more mature.

She had thick makeup on, but it wasn't enough to hide all the wrinkles on her face.

She was rather pretty as well, but somehow she also looked like an opportunist.

"Mum, didn't you say that Dad is in hospital? Why are we at a hotel instead of the hospital?" asked Qiu Mu-Cheng puzzledly as she looked at the building in front of her after getting out of the cab.

The younger ravishing beauty was Qiu Mu-Cheng, who should have been taking care of Qing Tan in Yanjing.

A few hours ago, Qiu Mu-Cheng suddenly got a call from her mother, saying that Qiu Lei had gotten into a serious car accident and wanted to see his daughter one last time.

Even though they had drifted apart, blood was still thicker than water.

These were the parents who brought her up after all.

No matter how heartless Qiu Mu-Cheng became, she wouldn't be so heartless as to ignore her father's dying wish.

So once Qiu Mu-Cheng heard about his situation, she took the next plane back to Yunzhou.

She didn't tell Ye Fan, not because she wanted to keep it a secret from him, but because Ye Fan's conflict with her parents was really too severe and she didn't want him to be affected by her parents anymore. But what confused Qiu Mu-Cheng was that her mother had brought her to a hotel instead of the hospital.

"Mu-Cheng, why do you ask so many questions? Don't you want to see your father? I'm taking you to see him, so why are you bothered about the venue? Do you think your mother would harm you?" Han Li didn't bother explaining anything and just dragged Qiu Mu-Cheng into the hotel.

Han Li gave Qiu Lei a call after walking into the hotel. "Get ready, Mu-Cheng and I are downstairs already."

In no time, Han Li and her daughter arrived at the cafe on the sixth story of the hotel.

Xur Shao-Hua was the first person to walk over to them. "Mu-Cheng, you're here! You've had a tiring flight, so quickly come in and take a seat," said Xur Shao-Hua

concernedly when he spotted Qiu Mu-Cheng. He couldn't contain his excitement and joy at all.
