A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 1644

Walking over, Chu Qitian comforted Angie with an apologetic tone, "Ms. Jones, sorry to have scared you. I'll be takingyou back with me now to continue with the wedding." However, Angie shoved him aside forcefully before running up to Han and checking on him in tears.

"Ms. Jones, I'm all right. I'm sorry that I am unable to help you escape."

Han was filled with regret.

If the Demonic Duo hadn't appeared, he would have had plenty of opportunities to help Angie escape.

Unfortunately, their presence had put a stop to all of his plans.

In the face of raw power, the best laid plans would undoubtedly falter.

"I should be the one to apologize for dragging you into this. It's all my fault... It's entirely on me... Because of me, Mr. Nuo is dead. And now, you..."

The moment she thought about Nuo's death, Angie's heart was seized by a piercing pain.

"Ms. Jones, it's time to go. Or else, the consequences will be dire if we're late," Sixth Elder urged Angie.

Refusing to obey, Angie screamed at them in tears, "I will rather die before I go with you. You have killed Mr. Nuo who is the one person closest to me! I hate you! I hate all of you!"

Her reaction caused Chu Qitian to feel embarrassed, as he had not expected her to resent him to that extent.

For the sake of not wanting to marry him, she had plotted to escape on her wedding day.

"Ms. Jones, isn't it too late to be saying all of these now? The wedding has already begun. In fact, everyone who is famous has already gathered at Mount Chumen. Therefore, have you considered the consequences of your words?" Chu Qitian asked coldly with his eyebrows furrowed.

Unexpectedly, Angie laughed mockingly.

"Consequences? isn't it just death? Go ahead and kill me then. With Mr. Nuo now gone, what is the point of me living alone in this world?"

Overwhelmed by sorrow, Angie pleaded for death with a grim look on her face.

"You..."

Chu Qitian was so outraged that he was rendered speechless.

"Angie Jones, don't force me to do it! Don't for a momentthinkthat I dare not kill you! Just for trying to escape today, your father won't have the right to protest if I were to take your life," Chu Qitian threatened with his fists clenched.

Ever since he was young, Chu Qitian had all the women he wanted. From the prettiest girl in university to the daughters of the city's rich. Among the prominent families, there were tons of ladies who couldn't wait to throw themselves at him.

Consequently, it never cross Chu Qitian's mind that Angie would rather die than marry him.

It undoubtedly dealt a blow to his confidence, as it made him look like a desperate sycophant having to beg her to marry him.

"Mr. Chu, there's no need to get worked up over this. Ms. Jones is just behaving childishly by throwing a rebellious tantrum. Moreover, you have barely interacted with her before. Hence, it's understandable tha she begrudges you. Nevertheless, girls like her maybe quick-tempered, but they are easy to pacify too. With your abilities, I'm sure she will be swooning over you after you have your way with her tonight," Sixth Elder assuaged Chu Qitian who found his arguments persuasive.

Given how conceited he was, Chu Qitian naturally assumed that he was the most eligible and charming person in the world.

Consequently, he would have no problem making a younggirl submitto him.

Holding that thought, Chu Qitian began to calm down.

Smiling, he replied, "Angie, now that we'll be seeing each other often, there's plenty of time to bond going forward. As of now, your father is waiting at the Chu residence. If you don't show up, wouldn't it put both families in a bad light? Furthermore, if you want us to spare the old fogey, you had better cooperate by coming with me. Or else, he will suffer the same fate as Mr. Nuo."

With a faint smile, Chu Qitian used Han's life to threaten Angie into compliance which was undoubtedly very effective.

I don't care about my own life, but what about Han? It's bad enough for me to have caused Mr. Nuo's death. There's no way I can't handle having Ye Fan's friend's blood on my hands too.

"Fine, I'll go with you. However, you must promise me that you won't hurt him," Angie asserted as she glared atChu Qitian.

"Of course. As long as you're willing to come with me, I will not only spare him but also get someone to treat him.

Standing with his hands behind his back, Chu Qitian broadened the smile on his face.

At that moment, the Demonic Duo urged, "Mr. Chu, it's getting late. We need to go now."

"All right, let's go."

Just as he spoke, Chu Qitian extended his hand toward Angie, "Come, Angie."

Ignoring his outstretched hand, Angie ran toward Han instead and whispered into his ear, "When you see Ye

Fan, please tell him not to come for me anymore. Just get him to stay away. As for our promise, all I can do is fulfill it in my next life."

The moment she finished, she turned her head away as tears flowed down her cheeks.

After that, she got back into the wedding car together with Chu Qitian.

"Ms. Jones... Ms. Jones, don't do anything reckless!"

Sensing Angie's conviction, Han was filled with worry and anxiousness.

Just when he tried to get up to pursue her, Sixth Elder sent him flying with a kick instead.

"You..."

Sprawled on the ground, Han clenched his fists and glared at Sixth Elder with his bloodshot eyes.

"What's wrong? You don't seem willing to surrender. Do you really think that we will let you go after they have left? You have collaborated with outsiders, betrayed the Chu family, and executed a heist on the wedding car are all crimes that are punishable by death! Therefore, I will execute you on behalf of the

Chu family today!"

With the wedding car no longer in sight, Sixth Elder and a few more of the Chu family's men stayed behind to tie up loose ends.

"You bunch of animals have no honor at all! The reputation of the Chu family has been torn to shreds by your actions. If Old Master was still around, all of you b*stards would have been executed, you hear me? Executed!" Han roared.

In spite of that, he was concerned for Angie's safety at the back of his mind.

If anything were to happen to her, he would have failed Ye Fan.

Unfortunately, there was little he could do, for he was being restrained by the men in front of him.

"Old Master? You must be talking about Chu Zhenghong then. I'm surprised at how loyal you are. In that case, I'll send you to Hell to be reunited with him, haha..."

With an insidious laugh, Sixth Elder swung a punch at Han all of a sudden.

"The Chu's Unrivaled Punch!"

Instead of avoiding it, Han steeled himself and roared out loud. Lowering his stance, he launched a punch of his own to counter the attack.

Bam!

A loud rumble rang out, throwing both men back at the same time.

"What? Why do you know the Chu family's techniques? You old b*stard! You have given me another reason to kill you for stealing our techniques!" Sixth Elder exclaimed in shock.

The Chu's Unrivaled Punch was an ultimate technique that was thought to members of the Chu family who were of direct lineage.

As a result, outsiders were forbidden from practicing it.

As a member and elder of the Chu family, Sixth Elder naturally knew the technique like the back of his palm.

Therefore, he was outraged to see a longtime servant of the Chu family wield the technique without

permission.

Nevertheless, he was cognizant that Han was thought the technique by Chu Zhenghong for his own selfdefense.

Consumed by anger, Sixth Elder continued his attacks.

Thistime, he didn't hold back and unleashed them at full power.

Every single strike was a fatal move of the Chu family's technique.

Given his advanced age and that Chu Zhenghong had only taught him a few moves for defending himself, Han wasn't considered a truly formidable fighter.

Consequently, there was no way he could stand up to Sixth Elder's relentless barrage of attacks.
