A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 1907

"How do you want your death, huh? I can have my uncle grant you the death you wish for! You're not going to run away in fear when you see him, are you? I hope you'll keep your word and challenge my uncle to a fight! I'll be sure to give you a proper burial! Say, what grudge do you have against my uncle? Why are you so determined to get your revenge on him? Are you really not afraid to die? You look pretty young to me. Judging by how much you suck at pleasing women, I bet you're still single, aren't you? Why would you do something so suicidal if you haven't even experienced love? My uncle will kill you for real, you know? You're nothing to a person as powerful as he is! I've seen him kill countless men with a single swing of his arm! You should give up on this and head back while you can! Isn't it better to live a good life instead of throwing it away like this? There are so many wonderful things that you have yet to experience! Come on, do you really not have something worth living for? I can even take you in if you don't have a place to go. You may not be as powerful as my uncle, but you're not all that bad. How about you work for my father as his bodyguard? I can provide you with accommodation and a lucrative monthly salary, so why don't you consider this offer?"

Noa kept rambling on as the two of them continued heading east.

Her attitude toward Ye Fan was slowly changing as she spent more time around him.

At first, she was eager for Ye Fan to meet her uncle so he could kill Ye Fan sooner.

Halfway through their journey, she started wishing for Ye Fan to slow down a little so that she could talk to him a bit more.

At some point, she didn't even want Ye Fan to go there and tried to talk him out of his stupid decision.

Eventually, she even went as far as promising to keep his plan a secret, offering him a job, providing him with accommodation, and forgiving him for abducting her as well as killing her subordinates. However, all of her pleas fell on deaf ears as Ye Fan ignored her the whole time.

He kept his eyes closed and didn't even look at her, let alone say anything in response.

"D*mn it, all you do is sleep! You might as well die in your sleep, then!"

Noa was on the verge of losing her mind from anger.

I'm genuinely concerned about his well-being, and he just ignores me completely! Ugh, this is so infuriating!

"Hmph! I wouldn't even care about you if it weren't for you keeping me warm earlier!"

Noa's face would get all puffed up like a pufferfish when she was angry, and that only made her look adorable.

After what seemed like forever, the train finally came to a stop at a city near the east coast.

Noa then refused to take another step.

Ye Fan looked at her and asked, "Are you going against your word?"

"I told you, I only know that my uncle is currently on an island east of India. I only know the general direction of the location, not the specifics. Besides, that island was a gift to my uncle from the president. It was meant to be a token of gratitude for his contributions to the country. That island is sealed off from the mainland, so you'll have to buy a ship if you want to get there. Alternatively, you can also build a raft and go look for it out in the ocean!" Noa replied in a matter-of-fact manner.

She then broke into a smug grin and sat down on a bench with her arms crossed as she continued, "What's the matter? Why have you gone quiet all of a sudden? Are you ready to give up now? I told you, my uncle is a very powerful man, so seeing him won't be easy. Let's just forget about this and head back, okay? You can work as a bodyguard like I told you earlier, and I'll pay you accordingly. Of course, if you don't want to work, I'm okay with having you as a sugar baby instead!"

There was an expectant look in Noa's eyes when she said that.

Everything she said led up to her suggestion of Ye Fan being her sugar baby.

However, Ye Fan simply shook his head and scooped her into his arms.

Noa burned bright red instantly, and her heart began pounding against her chest like crazy.

She was panicking so much that she felt like her heart would stop at any moment.

"W-What are you doing? There are so many people here!" Noa exclaimed softly while burying her blushing face in his chest.

She was feeling a mixture of shock, excitement, and the thrilling sensation of tasting the forbidden fruit at the same time.

What's going on here? Has this dense idiot finally come to his senses? Even so, isn't he going a little too fast here? Should I put up some resistance and get a little mad at him or something?

For some reason, Noa found herself unable to be angry at him at all.

She then tried to put up some mild resistance, but her squirming about in his arms only made their interaction seem all the more intimate.

Oblivious to Noa's thoughts and feelings, Ye Fan said coldly, "Tell me the general direction."

"W-What are you planning on doing? Y-You're not seriously going after my uncle, are you? We don't even have a boat! Are you planning on swimming there with me in your arms? Have you lost your mind?" Noa shouted in shock and disbelief.

Whatever thoughts she had earlier had all vanished

completely.

What the hell? This guy wasn't planning on returning with me! He's actually sticking to his plan of seeing Fen Tian!

With that in mind, Noa shifted her gaze toward the raging waves in the ocean.

The weather wasn't looking all that great, and the ocean looked grayish in color while huge waves hit the shore repeatedly.

Noa couldn't even bring herself to imagine how terrifying it would be to swim all the way there.

The next thing she knew, her body felt incredibly heavy all over, and the ground beneath her shrank rapidly in size while the sky came crashing down from above.

It wasn't until the two of them were about thirty feet in the air that Noa fully realized what was going on.

What? We're flying?

"W-W-What..."

Noa was in so much shock that she couldn't even speak properly.

Can humans really fly? I've heard Father talk about my uncle being able to fly, but I've never seen it with my own eyes, so I thought it was just an exaggeration. But, now that Ye Fan and I are floating in the air, see that Dad was telling the truth...

"Come on, tell me. Where is the Island of the King of India?" Ye Fan asked in a domineering tone.

Noa was in so much fear that she completely submitted to him and no longer dared try anything funny.

She then tried her best to recall where the island was and pointed in a certain direction.

Whoosh!

Just like that, Ye Fan began flying in that direction without any hesitation whatsoever.

The cold wind blew strongly against them while their bodies soared through the sky at high speeds.

Noa closed her eyes in fear as the wind howled loudly in her ears.

Meanwhile, in a certain island not too far away from the coast, a man was sitting cross-legged on the floor and seemed to be carrying out some sort of training.

His subordinates waited until he was done with his training before stepping forward and reporting, "Master, we've released the news about the wedding a few days ago. All the guests have arrived in the nearby city. When shall we open up the island and welcome them?"

The man glanced at the mainland in the distance before replying, "Give the order to open the island. This time, we'll put an end to our past grudges."
