A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 1438 A Reunion

The name 'General Green Dragon' became a military legend in China after the battle in Jiangbei, and he was particularly well-known in the Jiangdong army. After all, the Green Dragon Force and General Green Dragon rose to power in these very lands.

The Jiangdong army had witnessed Ye Fan and the Green Dragon Force rise from nowhere and triumph all other troops in China.

Hence, it was right to say that Jiangdong army was Ye Fan and the Green Dragon Force's home.

In an instant, more and more people came running over.

All of them saluted the young man with the greatest respect when they saw him.

However, Ye Fan was in no mood to enjoy this moment of glory.

All he wanted was to see his mother and wife as soon as possible.

"Instructor Chu, calm down. I have already sent word to Miss Qiu. She ought to be here soon."

Wang Dong-Sheng seemed to read Ye Fan's mind as he smiled and comforted Ye Fan.

"Instructor Chu, don't stand around outside. Please come in for some tea," invited Wang Dong-Sheng.

'TH pass. I'll wait right here for her."

Ye Fan waved his hand and turned down Wang Dong-Sheng's offer.

Before long, a car came driving over and pulled up next to them.

A slender leg in high boots reached out from the car when the car door opened before a stunning face appeared in front of Ye Fan after not seeing it all year. She was dressed in a white down jacket that was so bright that it resembled wintertime snow.

She paired it with gray slim-fit jeans.

A pink knitted cap adorned her head with her hair scattered under the cap.

Despite the simple dressing, she was a stunning sight to behold in the wilderness in the Jiangdong army.

She had striking features and the perfect figure.

Her lips were pink while her eyes were dark.

It felt as though god had blessed her with all things beautiful.

Many people were awestruck the moment they caught sight of her.

It seemed as though she was more beautiful than anything on earth.

She was like the air that they breathed.

Everyone was mesmerized by her beauty.

However, the young woman only had eyes for the young man despite the attention she garnered.

The instant she laid eyes on him, she went into a daze.

She froze the moment she saw him.

She shook so hard that even her breathing trembled.

Qiu Mu-Cheng had always felt that she was a strong and independent woman and was able to withstand all storms from the outside world.

However, the moment she saw the man she loved and wanted to spend her life with, all her strength instantly shattered.

Her beautiful eyes instantly turned red.

Tears trickled down her face uncontrollably.

She was finally incapable of restraining herself. After she got off the car, she ran towards the young man uninhibitedly. Like the waves returning into the ocean.

She ran into his arms and embraced him hard as she buried her face into his arms.

"Ye Fan, you stupid pig! What took you so long to come back? You creep! I hate you..." bawled Qiu Mu-Cheng.

She looked like a little girl complaining to her father after she had been bullied by others.

She cried in Ye Fan's arms as she hammered Ye Fan on his chest gently.

Even her crying face was so mesmerizing.

"Mu-Cheng, I'm sorry for making you worry for so long."

Everything about her felt familiar to him down to her hair and scent and even her clothing.

Ye Fan had bought her the pink cap on their first wedding anniversary.

Ye Fan recalled the flak he received from his in-laws for half a year for giving her such a cheap present, and he didn't remember Qiu Mu-Cheng ever wearing it. He assumed Qiu Mu-Cheng didn't like it and tossed it out.

He didn't expect her to still have it.

Also, they had bought this down jacket together.

Everything about Qiu Mu-Cheng felt familiar. Everything was a reminder of the life they shared.

What was family?

Did they have to be related by blood?

Did they have to share the same surname?

Ye Fan felt neither of these defined what family was.

Family members were people who made him feel warm inside when he saw them.

They were the people whom he would give everything for.

Only true kin would think about him when he was out at war and cry when they reunited after not seeing each other for a long time.

These people were the family whom Ye Fan swore to protect with his life.

Despite the cold wind, it felt warm and moving to see their love for each other.

"Sigh, youngsters these days."

Lu Tian-He and Wang Dong-Sheng laughed and felt happy for Ye Fan and Qiu Mu-Cheng.

The rest of the troops smiled with envy in their hearts that Ye Fan had such a beautiful and loving wife.

Lu Yan-Xi couldn't help feeling upset when she witnessed the scene.

Was it disappointment or envy?

Lu Yan-Xi didn't know either.

She simply knew there was no hope between her and the man who made her heart throb in her youth.

After Qiu Mu-Cheng cried for a long time, Ye Fan wiped the tears from Qiu Mu-Cheng's eyes as he smiled and consoled her, "There there. Stop crying. There are so many people watching you. You are ugly enough as it is, so you would become even uglier if you cried."

Ye Fan's words made everyone burst out laughing.

Qiu Mu-Cheng instantly blushed crimson. She pinched Ye Fan before she escaped his arms in embarrassment.

"Come on. Let's go see Mum. She's going to give it to you for being so unfilial," sneered Qiu Mu-Cheng with her eyes red and swollen as she led Ye Fan to Ye Xi-Mei.

The driver brought them deep into the army camp and halted in front of the military hospital.

"Hmm? Why are we at the hospital? Is Mum sick?" asked Ye Fan worriedly.

Qiu Mu-Cheng replied softly, "Go in first. We can talk later."
