A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 1120 The Avenger Arrives

Shen Fei was very guilty and sunk even lower into his seat after hearing Li Er's furious declaration. He was so afraid that someone might notice something amiss about him. "Master Er, don't worry, I will investigate this matter properly. I will not let this person off either!" replied Shen Jiu-Yi in a serious voice.

PFFT!

Shen Fei couldn't hold his nervousness in and spat all his tea out.

"What's wrong with you! If you don't want to stay here and eat, then get out!" Shen Jiu-Yi turned to glare at his son as he reprimanded Shen Fei.

Shen Fei remained silent and didn't even dare to let out a fart.

He hoped hard that his father wouldn't rat him out.

"Alright now, it's about time already, so let's start the banquet." Ye Fan wasn't bothered by such things, so he just waved his hands and got the banquet to officially begin. The waiters quickly brought out a huge amount of food.

Ye Fan stood proudly on the stage as he put one arm around his wife, and used the other to raise his glass to toast his guests.

"Everyone, thank you for coming all the way here to attend our wedding. Let me give everyone the first toast!" declared Ye Fan loudly above the cheers of the crowd before downing the entire glass at one shot.

"Mr Chu, you're too kind! If you hadn't turned the tides at that battle at Mount Tai, all of us here would have died at Wu He-Rong's hands a long time ago. Jiangdong is deeply indebted to you, Mr Chu. We ought to give you this toast first!" said Li Er as he was the first to stand.

He raised the glass of wine in his hand and bowed respectfully towards Ye Fan with a big smile on his face. "Today is your big day, so I, Li Er, would like to give you a toast! This toast is firstly to thank you for saving my life, secondly for allowing me to work for you, and thirdly, for a blissful marriage ahead!"

Li Er's deferential voice echoed in the entire restaurant.

After that, Lei San and Wang Jie-Xi stood up to give Ye Fan a toast as well.

"I, Lei San..."

"I, Wang Jie-Xi..."

"We wish Mr Chu a blissful marriage ahead!"

Their congratulatory words were like a gigantic rock falling into an ocean, making waves rise in its wake.

All the guests stood up and went forward with their glasses raised as they bowed to Ye Fan.

"All of us wish Mr Chu a blissful marriage ahead!"

"May your marriage be harmonious and may your family be surrounded by happiness!"

"Congratulations, Mr Chu!"

"We hope that Mr Chu will have children soon!"

The words of blessing from the guests seemed to merge into a powerful force that soared into the sky.

Ye Fan had authoritativeness in his eyes as he stood proudly before the most rich and powerful people in Jiangdong.

He was like a king looking down at his empire.

Qiu Mu-Cheng watched as the man next to her received all the congratulatory and respectful words of these big shots, and her gaze was filled with many emotions. She felt like Ye Fan was as dazzling as the sun.

His rays were able to light up the entire world!

Qiu Mu-Cheng knew that if not for Ye Fan, she would never be able to stand at the highest point of Jiangdong and look down at all these people alongside Ye Fan. "Mu-Cheng, congratulations. You've found the right guy," murmured Su Qian, who was among the crowd as Qiu Mu-Cheng's bridesmaid. Her eyes were filled with envy. Her heart was overwhelmed by the mixed emotions she felt inside.

Before this, everyone looked down on Ye Fan because he was merely a man who had no choice but to marry into his wife's family.

Everyone thought that he wasn't worthy of Qiu Mu-Cheng.

Su Qian herself had felt bad for this best friend of hers and kept telling Qiu Mu-Cheng to divorce Ye Fan, because she felt that Qiu Mu-Cheng was being silly for allowing herself to remain married to this cowardly live-in husband.

Nobody would have thought that the live-in son-in-law that everyone despised back then would turn out to be the greatest man in Jiangdong today.

"I guess sometimes it isn't bad to be a little silly after all. Nobody would have expected that this silly Mu-Cheng would be so beloved by the great Mr Chu of Jiangdong." Su Qian's gaze was bitter, but her heart was nothing but envious.

All heroes loved beautiful women, and beautiful women loved heroes too.

Qiu Mu-Cheng was such a woman, and so was Su Qian.

Back at the battle of Mount Tai, Su Qian had fallen in love with the Mr Chu at first sight.

She had tried so hard to find out who this Mr Chu really was, and tried to track down where he lived.

But fate always had a way of toying with people.

Su Qian never dreamt that the man she admired and idolized so much would turn out to be her best friend's husband whom she insulted and despised so much.

When she found out the truth, Su Qian's world nearly collapsed.

A long time had passed since she found out, but Su Qian still found it difficult to face this calmly whenever she thought about it.

While Su Qian was deep in thought, Shen Fei could feel a motivation surging through him as he looked upon Ye Fan.

A man about little else besides power and women.

Ye Fan was only twenty, but he had already achieved everything that Shen Fei might never achieve in his entire life.

Ye Fan was at the pinnacle of power, and his wife was an incomparable beauty.

These were things that others could only dream about, but Ye Fan already had them both!

Shen Fei couldn't help but exclaim to himself, "That's how a man should be!"

But just when the banquet had reached its climax, someone suddenly pushed the restaurant doors open.

A worn out looking middle aged man had barged through the doors with panic and anxiety written all over his face.

"Mr Chu, run! Hurry up and run!" he shouted anxiously. The fear in his voice shook the whole hall.

Everyone's faces immediately paled at his words.

Meanwhile, a man in a suit sat by a window in a cafe several kilometers away from Haiyuan Restaurant and quietly read the newspapers.

Every now and then, this man would look out of the window, as if he was waiting for something.

After a long time, a car finally stopped outside the door.

A man soon walked into the cafe and headed straight for the man next to the window. He quietly reported to the other man, "Mayor Wu, we've got news that they are already outside Yunzhou. They should be entering the border in a few minutes."

"Excellent. So, the avenger has finally arrived?" Wu Wei-Tao kept the newspapers away and smiled coldly. Then he gave instructions, "Tell them Ye Fan's whereabouts like I told you to."

"Yes, Mayor Wu. I will get it done right away." The man disappeared again.

Wu Wei-Tao picked up his coffee, walked to the window and looked ahead.

He saw Haiyuan Restaurant in the distance, and the mist from Yunwu Lake around it.

"It's every man for himself. Mr Chu, I'm

sorry about this. But it's your fault for offending the wrong people in the first place," sneered Wu Wei-Tao as steam rose from his teacup.

Wu Wei-Tao felt like he could already see how Ye Fan was going to die at Haiyuan Restaurant in a few moments.
