A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 373 Just Wait for All the Limelight

"Stol...stolen? How can that be? I personally went home to get it. How could it be stolen?" said Zhang Zheng-Fu as his face twitched, and he became instantly confused. He didn't think that things would turn out this way.

Zhang Zheng-Fu asked his father to help get the tickets. Then Han Dong-Min called to invite them all to the Entrepreneurs' Dinner.

It was clear that they had the opportunity to come for the dinner because Zhang Zheng-Fu's father used his connections, so Zhang Zheng-Fu went home to retrieve the tickets without giving it a second thought Zhang Xiao-Song wasn't home when Zhang Zheng-Fu arrived. Since the invitation was sitting on his father's desk, Zhang Zheng-Fu thought those were the tickets that Zhang Xiao-Song had prepared for him, so he took them right away without even pausing to think.

But now the organizers were saying that it wasn't their invitation.

"How can that be? Did you check properly? Are you sure its recipient isn't Zhang Zheng-Fu? Maybe its Qiu Mu-Cheng or Su Qian?" asked Zhang Zheng-Fu persistently as he refused to give up. After all, it was a question of dignity.

He had patted his chest and confidently guaranteed Qiu Mu-Cheng that she could count on him for the ticket earlier on.

How could Mr Xu accuse him of theft?

What would Qiu Mu-Cheng and Su Qian think of him?

Wouldn't they think that Zhang Zheng-Fu was a thief?

"You must have made a mistake. Mayor Han called to invite us over the phone, so it can't be a fake invitation," Zhang Zheng-Fu couldn't help saying as he shook his head. He even demanded Mr Xu to recheck the invite.

"Damn you!" shouted Mr Xu furiously. In his anger, he slapped Zhang Zheng-Fu's face and continued, "How dare you continue denying and even get Mayor Han involved? What gives scum like you the right to do that? Hurry up and get lost!"

Mr Xu didn't immediately chase them away previously because he was worried that they might really have an invitation.

After all, according to the rules, they could enter the Expo and attend the dinner if they had an invitation.

But now that they discovered it was a stolen invitation, they naturally had no qualms about chasing them out, so the manager ordered security to drive them out after slapping Zhang Zheng-Fu.

The crowd felt deeply gratified when they saw Qiu Mu-Cheng and the others get chased out like stray animals, so everyone censured them one after another.

"They asked for it." "How dare these nobodies swagger around and trick us?"

"They're really tired of living!"

"These days, desperate people are getting bolder and bolder. How dare they stir trouble at an event like this?"

"How can immoral scum like them have the cheek to start a company?"

"Everyone, Mufan Real Estate doesn't even have basic integrity."

"We should boycott such companies and bankrupt them."

Everyone continued scolding them.

They even stepped on the invitation to Mufan Real Estate's opening ceremony to smithereens contemptuously.

Then Qiu Mu-Ying took the opportunity to specially invite everyone to Qiushui Logistics' ribbon-cutting ceremony, just like Su Qian did.

"This celebration was jointly organized by

Qiushui Logistics and Hongqi Group. The GM of Hongqi Group will personally attend it, and the mayor's eldest son, Wu Yong, has also been invited. I, Qiu Mu-Ying, hope you can grace us with your presence!" Qiu Mu-Ying undoubtedly picked the perfect time to ask. First, she created the impression that she was an exceedingly upright person by exposing Qiu Mu-Cheng's lies, then she used Hongqi Group and Wu Yong's reputation to increase Qiushui Logistics' prestige.

Very quickly, ten business leaders responded and expressed that they wanted to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony.

Thunderous applause and congratulations from below the stage made Qiu Mu-Ying feel energetic and smug in her heart.

"Qiu Mu-Cheng, oh Qiu Mu-Cheng, I bet when you used this event to publicize your opening ceremony, it didn't cross your mind that it would end up benefiting myself and the Qiu family instead." Qiu Mu-Ying beamed with joy.

Old Master Qiu and Qiu Guang looked at Qiu Mu-Ying with approval in their eyes.

"Old Master Qiu, Yingying has made great contributions to the Qiu family again."

"She's managed to invite so many business leaders at one go. Now you can just sit back and wait to steal the limelight on 11th November."

"Hahaha!"

Old Master Qiu and Qiu Guang were so delighted in their hearts that they couldn't stop smiling from ear to ear.

They could almost already envision the grand spectacle of all the rich and powerful gathering at Qiushui Logistics' ribbon-cutting ceremony. When the time came, everyone in Yunzhou would know about the Qiu family and Qiu Zheng-Lun.

The Qiu family might even end up transforming from an unknown third-tier family to become a top-tier family in

Yunzhou through their event's success. It would mean huge glory for their family.

It was a bustling and grand sight inside the Expo.

The lively scene inside formed a stark contrast against the sight of Zhang Zheng-Fu and the two ladies getting chased out of the Expo pathetically.

"Asshole! Let me go! I can walk on my own! My Dad won't let you snobs off!" roared Su Qian angrily. In the end, they were heartlessly removed from the Expo and flung onto the ground.

Su Qian had never suffered such humiliation in her life, so she was particularly furious and kept yelling at the security guards.

"How dare you swindlers talk big? I have shown mercy by not sending you to the police station. How dare you curse at us?" said Mr Xu as he smiled coldly. Then he shoved Qiu Mu-Cheng onto the ground and shouted angrily, "Get lost!"

Mr Xu pushed Qiu Mu-Cheng so hard that she grazed her lovely hands severely when she fell.

"Mu-Cheng, Mu-Cheng, are you okay?"

Su Qian was instantly anxious and hurried over to support Qiu Mu-Cheng when she saw her best friend get hurt. At the same time, she shouted at Mr Xu angrily, "How could you push Mu-Cheng? I'm going to sue you for personal injury!"

Mr Xu instantly laughed like he had heard the funniest joke ever. Then he said, 'Tm already nice here. If you weren't women, I would have kicked you instead. Get lost, you dumbasses!"

After cursing them, Mr Xu ignored them and turned to head back into the Expo.

He didn't care about Qiu Mu-Cheng and the others since they were nothing but stupid clowns.

After Mr Xu and the others left, Qiu Mu-Cheng remained slumped on the ground. Everything that unfolded today was undoubtedly a massive blow to her.

She was publicly humiliated by Qiu Mu-Ying and even chased out of the Expo.

Everything became messed up. No one knew how sad and dejected Qiu Mu-Cheng was now.

"Miss Qiu, are...are you okay?" asked Zhang Zheng-Fu worriedly. He had climbed up off the ground and walked up to her somewhat guiltily.

"Get lost!" shouted Su Qian the moment she saw Zhang Zheng-Fu. She shoved him aside right away and shouted furiously, "How can you have the cheek to ask? If it weren't for you, Mu-Cheng and I wouldn't have gotten chased out. Why pretend if you couldn't get it right? How could you do something like stealing an invite? You got us in huge trouble! To think that I thought you were incredible and well-respected! In the end, you're a good-for-nothing!"
