A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 1101 Tragic End

Li Xue-Qi's voice echoed in the shop.

Sun Hai-Zhou froze on the spot after hearing what she said. "Wh-what did you just say? He...he's really Mr Chu?"

His entire body was shaking as he stared in disbelief at Li Xue-Qi. His eyes were as huge as bells.

"That's...that's impossible! Mr Chu is the leader of Jiangdong and a powerful man. How could someone at his level be this young? Besides, Mr Chu is someone of such high standing. How could someone like that dress this shabbily? Impossible! It's impossible!" shouted Sun Hai-Zhou uncontrollably. He couldn't accept it at all. He couldn't believe that this ordinary and poorly dressed youngster in front of him was actually the almighty Mr Chu who was in charge of Jiangdong.

"Don't judge a book by its cover. The more powerful and capable one is, the plainer he looks on the outside. Sun Hai-Zhou, you've seen all sorts of people over the years but you still don't understand this principle?" said Li Xue-Qi as she shook her head and looked disappointedly at Sun Hai-Zhou.

Li Xue-Qi didn't bother explaining anymore. She walked up to Ye Fan and said respectfully, "Mr Chu, I'm sorry for coming late. Here's the $10 million in cash you asked for."

Li Xue-Qi waved her hands and the two bodyguards behind her opened the safe in their hands to reveal stacks and stacks of notes.

Everyone shook at the sight of this amount of cash.

Chen Wen-Wen was frozen to her spot.

Sun Hai-Zhou felt like he had just been struck by lightning.

Tan Xiao-Jing used a hand to cover her mouth in shock.

"He...he's really...Mr Chu?" Sun Hai-Zhou had no choice but to face up to reality now.

There was $10 million in cash right in front of him now, and even Li Xue-Qi had to behave so respectfully towards this man.

The only person who could make Li Xue-Qi come personally just to deliver cash and still behave so deferentially had to be someone at the pinnacle of power like Mr Chu.

"Manager Sun, what do you have to say now? You said I had no right to use Mufan Group's name to fire you. Do I have the right now?" Ye Fan smiled coldly as he stood with his hand behind his back. He looked at Sun Hai-Zhou as if he was looking down at an ant.

Sun Hai-Zhou nearly lost all feeling in his legs and felt like his soul was about to leave his body from the way Ye Fan stared at him.

He immediately broke down and pleaded, "Mr...Mr Chu, I'm...I'm really sorry! I really didn't know it was you! If I had known, I would have just given this dress to you! I wouldn't have wanted a single cent from you! It's a misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding!"

Sun Hai-Zhou was on the verge of crying.

Because of his relationship with the Li family, there were very few in Yunzhou he was really afraid of.

And even if he really offended some big shot, he could just call Li Xue-Qi and get her to help him out.

Since they were old neighbors and playmates when they were children, Sun Hai-Zhou didn't have to be afraid of offending anyone.

But all this confidence vanished in front of Mr Chu.

His heart was left with nothing but fear and terror.

After all, even the previous King of Jiangdong, Chen Ao, had been removed from his high post with one word from Mr Chu.

Even if such a legendary man squished him to death right now, nobody would dare to say anything.

But Ye Fan remained unmoved by Sun Hai-Zhou's pleading and just smiled coldly. "Don't you think it's a little too late to say all this now?"

He ignored Sun Hai-Zhou's pleas and marched off.

"Mr Chu, what about the money?" asked Li Xue-Qi as she caught up with him.

"It's useless to me now."

Shortly after Ye Fan walked out, Mufan Group's employees officially took over Xinxin Bridal Boutique.

"Mufan Group has bought over this bridal boutique, and it will belong to Mufan Group from now on. Mr Chu has also decided to fire Sun Hai-Zhou, the manager of this boutique, as well as another employee, Chen Wen-Wen. He has also decided that Tan Xiao-Jing will be the new manager of the boutique, and there are no changes to the positions of the other staff," announced Su Qian coldly within the shop. There was an uproar after Su Qian finished her announcement.

Everyone present was in awe of Ye Fan's domineering and decisive ways.

They thought that Ye Fan hadn't meant what he said. To their surprise, Ye Fan really bought over the boutique.

"He's Mr Chu alright! He's the only one in Yunzhou who is rich enough and domineering enough to do this!"

"Congratulations, Xiao-Jing!"

"Since you've gained the favor of Mr Chu, I'm sure you'll become even more successful and enjoy a more luxurious life in the future, right?"

"Xiao-Jing, when you become successful in the future, don't forget the sisters who labored with you here!"

The other staff in the shop who used to ridicule and make sarcastic remarks at

Tan Xiao-Jing changed their attitude towards her completely and started to curry favor with her now.

They all clearly thought that Tan Xiao-Jing had a special relationship with Mr Chu.

There was no other reason why someone like Mr Chu would allow a young girl who had just started working to become a manager almost immediately.

But only Tan Xiao-Jing knew that she had met Mr Chu completely by chance and they weren't even acquainted.

She had no idea why Ye Fan had made her the manager at all.

But while everyone was fussing around Tan Xiao-Jing, Chen Wen-Wen and Sun Hai-Zhou weren't faring so well.

Chen Wen-Wen's predicament wasn't so bad since she was quite pretty and could just find another boutique to work in after this.

But Sun Hai-Zhou had lost everything.

Xinxin Bridal Boutique originally belonged to the Li family.

Sun Hai-Zhou couldn't find work, so he went to look for the Li family for help and Li Xue-Qi eventually allowed him to take care of this boutique.

He had made a lot of money from working for this boutique over the past number of years. Now that he had been fired, this good and steady source of income was gone.

But what terrified Sun Hai-Zhou even more was the fact that he had offended Mr Chu.

Mr Chu was like a god to Jiangdong.

Anyone who offended him would find it impossible to do anything here!

He had no choice but to call Li Xue-Qi and hope that she could put in a good word for him. But Li Xue-Qi didn't pick up his calls and even deleted his number. It was clear that the Li family didn't want to have anything to do with him anymore.

"Manager Sun, it's going to be alright. You can always find a job elsewhere. Humans are very resilient. We won't starve to death just because we've been fired," Chen Wen-Wen consoled Sun Hai-Zhou when she saw the look of despair on his face.

It was better if Chen Wen-Wen had remained silent. The moment she said these words, Sun Hai-Zhou immediately blew up and kicked Chen Wen-Wen in the stomach.

"It's going to be alright?! Damn you, Chen Wen-Wen! It's all your fault! If you hadn't told me to chase Mr Chu out, I wouldn't be in this predicament now! You stupid bitch! You've really landed me in hot soup this time!" yelled Sun Hai-Zhou furiously.
