A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 1295 We Meet Again

This was the first time Ye Fan was looking at the person before him at such proximity.

He stared at her lovely form and the air of cold dispassion that she was exuding.

It struck Ye Fan then. The person before him had an air of familiarity to her.

The memory of the beautiful young woman whom he had lived alongside in the old Chu family mansion appeared in his head. The outline of her form fit seamlessly with that of the woman before him. Something exploded inside Ye Fan's head instantly.

He widened his eyes slightly while his pupils contracted visibly. He gasped aloud with happiness and surprise. "Are you...are you Yu Yun?"

Ye Fan had recognized her after all.

Yu Yun stopped trying to hide who she was.

She turned around and removed the veil over her face.

The veil fell away to the sight of an impossibly lovely face. It was as if one was witnessing the blossoming of a rare and exquisite peony in a furious storm.

Her beauty did not belong on this earth.

It was a glorious beauty that rightly belonged in the heavens.

The sun and moon paled in comparison to her lovely face.

Ye Fan himself was momentarily lost as he stared at Yu Yun.

A look of surprise and happiness soon replaced that of stupor on his face.

"It's you! I can't believe it's you, Yu Yun! I should have known it was you. There's no other woman who's as powerful as you are. It's been such a long time!" laughed Ye Fan. What Ye Fan had viewed as completely bizarre behavior suddenly seemed so endearing after he had realized that the young woman standing before him was Yu Yun.

She might appear cold and distant, but her frosty exterior hid an adorable and endearing personality.

The smile on Ye Fan's face grew as he remembered their times together.

"I would rather we never meet again," said Yu Yun icily with a look of mild fury still on her lovely face.

She was obviously still mad at Ye Fan having sneaked up on and attacked her.

She should have known that it had been Ye Fan. After all, he was the only man shameless enough to commit such an act.

After all, this was the man who had stolen her clothes so that he could have the Dragon God Body.

This time, he had laid his hands on her chest for an ice spirit fruit!

Yu Yun honestly wondered if she owed this scoundrel a debt in her past life. Nothing good ever happened when she bumped into him.

"Alright now, don't get mad. I didn't know it was you! If I knew it were you, I wouldn't have disrupted your training. In fact, I would have stood guard over you. This was all a misunderstanding. Why did you cover your face with a veil anyway? Do you think you look like a monster and are afraid to show your face to strangers?" said Ye Fan as he attempted to appease Yu Yun.

He should have kept his mouth shut instead though. His words sent Yu Yun boiling with rage.

"Shut up if you have nothing better to say!"

She really wanted to teach this jerk another lesson.

Ye Fan got her by the wrist as soon as she raised her arm.

The sensation and warmth of Ye Fan's skin sent alarm rippling inside Yu Yun.

She tried to free herself to no avail.

"I'm sorry. You should have the ice spirit fruit since you found it. Finders, keepers, after all," said Ye Fan as he pulled out the ice spirit fruit and tried to hand it back to Yu Yun.

She didn't take it. Instead, she pulled her arm out of Ye Fan's grip. "I told you it's yours. I don't regret what I said. Since I've given it to you, I'm not going to take it back." "But your training..."

Yu Yun cut Ye Fan off before he could finish what he had to say. "My training's none of your business. There are plenty of rare items that can aid one's cultivation. I'm not going to weep over this one. You, on the other hand, probably made yourself plenty of enemies in the martial arts circle because of your shameless deeds. You should try and make yourself more powerful as soon as possible and prevent yourself from getting killed," said Yu Yun frostily before hastily adding, "I don't care if you die, but I don't want Granny to be upset."

Ye Fan smiled and shook his head.

This silly girl's pride was so endearing.

"Have you been alone all this while? It's not safe for a girl to travel alone. You're lucky to have met me. Imagine if you were ambushed by someone else. What would have happened to you then?"

Ye Fan must be the only man shameless enough to think he had been doing her a favor by committing such a shameless and despicable deed.

Yu Yun rolled her eyes at him. She couldn't be bothered to get mad at him anymore.

"Just mind your own business. You've got guts, running around this place with the abilities you have. I would have slain you with my sword if I didn't care about Granny's feelings," said Yu Yun frostily. Ye Fan simply smiled and did not say a

word.

His smile was as warm as the summer breeze.

Silence fell upon them and the world around them like a gentle blanket.

Neither of them said a word.

After a moment of hesitation, Yu Yun finally looked at Ye Fan and said quietly. "How's your progress with the Cloud and Mist Sword Technique?"

Ye Fan smiled and nodded. Tve mastered the basics."

"Have you considered joining any sects or organizations to gain access to more powerful martial arts? You'll be able to receive the guidance and mentorship of powerful martial artists as well. Rather than trying to figure things out on your own, you should get a good instructor instead."

"Join an organization? What kind of organization?" asked Ye Fan with a faint smile on his lips. It was as if he was having a casual conversation with Yu Yun.

In fact, Ye Fan felt relaxed every time he chatted with Yu Yun.

It was like talking to his best friend.

"Chu Sect," said Yu Yun.

Ye Fan frowned.

Yu Yun mistook the frown for Ye Fan's concern that Chu Sect might not accept him because of his Chinese nationality. "Don't worry about getting into the sect. Even though Chu Sect disallows Chinese martial artists from joining their sect, I have a friend inside who holds an office in the sect and who might be able to help. I'll have her write you a recommendation letter. With that letter, no one will stop you from entering Chu Sect."

Yu Yun was about to go on when she caught the stormy look on Ye Fan's face. She fell silent.

"What's wrong with you, Ye Fan?" asked Yu

Yun confusedly.

Ye Fan laughed softly. "Nothing at all. I'm just a nobody. People will laugh at me and look down on me if I get in by pulling strings. They'll drive me out in the end. Why should I go to all that trouble then?" said Ye Fan casually. His cold words hid a hint of self-deprecation.

He had been to Chu Sect before.

He had spent some time with members of the three families in Chu Sect during his days under the Chu family's roof.

He could still remember the faces of those men and women who had hailed themselves as the most powerful organization in the world.

In fact, the person who had driven him and his mother out of the sect had been the former sect leader of Chu Sect and the old master of the Chu family himself, Chu Yuan!
