A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 378 The Smug Qiu Family

While Mufan Real Estate was still covered in a layer of gloominess, it was a completely different scene at the Qiu house.

Although there was still one day to go before the ribbon-cutting ceremony took place, the Qiu family was already excited and raring to go. Also, Old Master Qiu instructed people to buy red carpets and huge amounts of fresh flowers.

He even sent word for a band to be hired.

How could there be no music during a celebration?

Old Master Qiu even made it clear that everyone was to wear new clothes, otherwise they weren't allowed to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony.

It was evident that the opening ceremony tomorrow meant a lot to Old Master Qiu.

After all, it would bring great honor to their family if things went well.

Then his name, Qiu Zheng-Lun, might make history in Yunzhou's business circles in the future.

Inside the living room.

Old Master Qiu's grandchildren were all present. Qiu Mu-Ying, Qiu Guang, and the others were reporting on the preparation of the celebration.

"Qiu Guang, have you contacted the hotel? Have you double-checked the wait staff, the tables and menus?" asked Old Master Qiu as he sat upright. The impending celebration made Old Master Qiu high spirited and radiant. His aura became even more dignified as he sat on his high chair.

Qiu Guang replied, "Dad, everything is ready. We have booked Yulong Hotel for tomorrow. I vetted the menu, it's luxurious and grand enough, so it certainly won't embarrass us. Also, all the wait staff have been hand-picked and look topnotch. I've contacted the band too, and they will turn up at 7PM sharp." "Alright," said Old Master Qiu as he nodded satisfactorily. Then he looked at Qiu Mu-Ying and asked, "Yingying, what about you? Have you sent all the invites and spoken to Hongqi Group's GM?"

Qiu Mu-Ying instantly smiled and said, "Grandpa, everything is in good hands. I have sent all the invites out. There are plenty of first-tier rich and powerful people among the attendees. The GM of Hongqi Group, Liu Bin, has already promised to attend it on behalf of the group. Grandpa, just wait till you cut the ribbon with Mr Liu, and everyone will revere you after that. All the important people and celebrities will gather at the ceremony tomorrow to congratulate you. Grandpa, the Qiu family will certainly make a name here and rise to become a force to be reckoned with in Yunzhou. And you will become a highly respected, well-known big shot in Yunzhou.

Qiu Mu-Ying beamed brightly. She felt pleased with herself when they talked about tomorrow.

Although Old Master Qiu would represent the Qiu family to go on stage and cut the ribbon, Qiu Mu-Ying was determined to enjoy the limelight too.

After all, many people were attending the event tomorrow because of her husband, Chu Wen-Fei.

Since her husband was highly respected, Qiu Mu-Ying could share in his glory.

"Exactly, Dad. The spotlight will be on you tomorrow. Haven't you waited all your life for such a grand affair? Now is your moment to bring glory to the family," said Wang Qiao-Yu as she chuckled. "Also, other than stealing the limelight, all those tycoons won't come empty-handed when they arrive to congratulate you. It will be a windfall for the Qiu family too," chimed Jiang Hong and the others as they grinned from ear to ear.

Very quickly, everyone in the Qiu family understood what the ceremony meant to them and couldn't wait for the day to come.

Old Master Qiu could almost envision the sight of everyone coming to congratulate him respectfully tomorrow. He beamed and said, "Haha, now that you mention it, the Qiu family has Yingying and Wen-Fei to thank for this. If it weren't for the respect that Wen-Fei commands and Yingying's eloquence, we wouldn't have managed to invite so many big shots to the ribboncutting ceremony. This time, if the Qiu family can make a resurgence in Yunzhou and rise to become an elite family, then most of the credit goes to Yingying and Wen-Fei for sure.

"Yes, it's all thanks to Yingying that we can succeed. Qiao-Yu, you raised a good daughter."

"Our Yingying is far better than Qiu Lei's daughter."

"Their entire family is stupid. They are so poor now that they can only rely on lies to keep up whatever's left of their image."

"And look what happened? It backfired on them." "Qiu Mu-Cheng lost all reputation, and even that company of hers will probably go bust."

"When tomorrow comes, our event will be filled with guests while not a single soul attends theirs. I reckon Qiu Lei's family will be embarrassed and have nowhere to hide."

"They even sent us an invitation. How dare they show off to us?"

"They are just a family of dumbasses. How dare they?"

"I even heard that half their staff quit today even though their opening ceremony is taking place tomorrow. Their office is almost empty." "Haha, is that so?"

"Qiu Mu-Cheng and Mufan Real Estate will become the biggest joke and disgrace in Yunzhou."

"Fortunately, we chased scum like them out of our doors. Or else, the Qiu family would get dragged into this mess."

The Qiu family willfully laughed as they chatted. They didn't forget to ridicule Qiu Mu-Cheng's family while they praised Qiu Mu-Ying.

Qiu Mu-Cheng and the others were nothing but a complete joke to the Qiu family now, and everyone wanted to trample on them.

Qiu Mu-Ying brimmed with pride as she listened to her relatives.

"Qiu Mu-Cheng, this is what happens when you try to fight me! Since you embarrassed me publicly, I will destroy your reputation! So what if you are a natural beauty? You married a useless man and are destined to be trampled by me for the rest of your life! After tomorrow, you won't even get to be my worthy opponent," said Qiu Mu-Ying as she smiled with an unbridled arrogance.

That's right, Qiu Mu-Ying was the one who leaked the news and videos about what happened to Qiu Mu-Cheng and Mufan Real Estate the night before at the dinner.

Han Dong-Min had initially sent orders for news about the dinner to be contained.

He didn't allow the reporters and employees of the Expo who were present to release the news.

Although no one knew what Han Dong-Min was trying to do, none of them dared to oppose Mayor Han's order.

But Qiu Mu-Ying didn't care about any of these things. In the morning, she secretly divulged the incident to her classmate who was a reporter and uploaded the videos on her phone online.

Qiu Mu-Ying completely exposed Qiu Mu-Cheng as a fraud to the public and ruined both her and Mufan Real Estate's reputation.

It was too bad she didn't have Ye Fan beating Xu Lin on camera.

Qiu Mu-Ying was too afraid at the time as she thought Ye Fan was going to beat her to death. She was petrified to her wit's end and didn't think of filming it.

If she had caught Ye Fan attacking someone at the Entrepreneurs' Dinner on camera, she could hire people to incite public rage and debate online about this matter, and Ye Fan would probably get jailed.
