A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) -
Chapter 380 Let the Celebration Begin!
Just as the Li family flew into a frenzy, similar things were happening all over Yunzhou.
Inside a room.
A middle-aged man was sitting hunched over an office desk working.
Then his secretary came walking in to place today's news on his table.
After the man read them, there was a rare emotional fluctuation on his face.
"Mufan Real Estate? Mu? Fan?" At the thought of that, the man shook his head and smiled.
Then he told the secretary standing behind him, "Prepare a gift. We will support their opening ceremony tomorrow."
"What?" asked the secretary when she heard her boss. Her expression changed as she said, "That's just a small company. Are you going personally?"
The middle-aged man shook his head and replied, "Although it is a tiny company, a true dragon stands behind it."
"Even I don't dare to offend this man."
The middle-aged man's profound voice echoed in the room.
The secretary's pretty face turned pale instantly when she heard him.
Given the power and status that this man wielded in Yunzhou, what sort of people backed Mufan Real Estate if even he didn't dare to offend them?
At the thought of that, the secretary couldn't help inhaling nervously.
Then the secretary immediately got started without any delay.
The room reverted to calmness.
Only the middle-aged man sat alone in the large office.
He got up and walked over to the French windows before him moments later.
Outside, the wind was surging, and the clouds were moving in all directions.
But this middle-aged man felt inexplicably emotional in his heart.
He knew that things wouldn't be peaceful in Yunzhou in the future.
But as the one in charge of Yunzhou, he didn't know whether he ought to be happy or worried that such a dragon was hiding in Yunzhou. Meanwhile, at Yunwu Lake.
A skinny man stood proudly with his hands behind him as he looked into the distance.
A sea of clouds tossed and turned behind him.
The tides surged in front of him.
Stars reflected in his deep eyes.
"Mu-Cheng, you once said that you didn't want others to look down or you or mock you. You wanted all the people who insulted you to regret it. Now, I will make your wish come true. From tomorrow onwards, you will be famous in Jiangdong!"
BOOOM!
A biting cold wrapped the man's profound words, which instantly swept across the country!! 11 th November, Tuesday. Clear skies overlooked Yunzhou.
All the rich and powerful gathered today.
A grand celebration was about to commence today!
The first ray of sunlight fell.
The Qiu family could no longer suppress their excitement and joy, so they got up early to prepare.
Wang Qiao-Yu, Jiang Hong and the other ladies all got dressed up and put on their best jewelry.
Qiu Guang, Qiu Luo and the other gentlemen did their hair and donned their most luxurious suits. Everyone in the Qiu family looked radiant as they beamed brightly.
"Qiao-Yu, you look great today."
"I heard many of the big shots will be coming today because of your son-in-law."
"You can't embarrass Wen-Fei as his mother-in-law."
The moment Wang Qiao-Yu stepped out, all the members of the family sang her praises.
Today's ribbon-cutting ceremony placed the entire Qiu family in the spotlight.
But everyone in the Qiu family felt that the one who stole the most limelight was Qiu Luo's household.
It couldn't be helped since their daughter managed to find such a powerful husband.
"Haha, that goes without saying. But I'm sure many people came because of your family as well. Guang has run Qiushui Logistics for so many years, so no one can compete with Guang in terms of connections. Maybe most of the guests who turn up later will be there for him," said Wang Qiao-Yu as she chuckled and flattered Qiu Guang's wife, who was also Qiu Mu-Ying's aunt.
Qiu Guang's wife shook her head quickly and said, "We really aren't as good. Although we know plenty of people, none of them are big shots. How can we hold a candle to Wen-Fei?" Old Master Qiu had five sons. His eldest son, Qiu Guang, took over Qiushui Logistics after he stepped down.
His second son, Qiu Ming, joined the army and was rarely home.
Old Master Qiu's third son was Qiu Lei. He was Qiu Mu-Cheng's cowardly father and did nothing but idle at home.
His fourth son, Qiu Luo, took up a high post in Qiushui Logistics too, and assisted Qiu Guang.
As for his fifth son, Qiu Yuan, he was abroad all the time and only came home for the Chinese New Year.
So the people who came to congratulate them today at their ribbon-cutting ceremony either came because of Hongqi Group's reputation or mostly on account of Qiu Guang and Qiu Luo.
"Okay, stop praising each other. The car fleet will be here soon. Hurry up and get ready, so we can leave together in a while. You can continue flattering each other after we arrive at Yulong Hotel," said Qiu Ming's wife, Jiang Hong, as she rolled her eyes and rushed the two when she noticed that they couldn't stop flattering each other.
In order to suppress Mufan Real Estate, Qiu Mu-Ying deliberately chose to hold their ribbon-cutting ceremony at Yulong
Hotel, which was opposite Mufan Real Estate.
So the Qiu family had to head to the hotel and wait for their guests to arrive to welcome them properly.
In no time, the fleet of cars they hired pulled up in front of the Qiu residence.
The entire family got into the cars and headed to Yulong Hotel.
Meanwhile, at Liuyuan Residential District.
Qiu Mu-Cheng and her family woke up early for breakfast before getting changed and leaving for the office.
"Mu-Cheng, are you really going to hold an opening ceremony? Why won't you listen to us? Wouldn't it be embarrassing if no one turns up to support it except us?" Han Li immediately guessed what was going on when she spotted Qiu Mu-Cheng and Ye Fan dressed in formal wear this early in the morning. She was so furious that it felt as though her liver had ruptured.
"Mum, stop trying to change my mind. My mind's made up. The opening ceremony will proceed regardless of its turnout. Also, there is nothing embarrassing about the opening ceremony. I did it for my company and no one else. If no one else comes to celebrate with me, then I will do it alone. I built Mufan Real Estate from scratch, and it's my baby. I will hold all the necessary ceremonies for it without holding back. If you two want to go, you are welcome. But if you don't, then I won't force you. It's getting late, so we're going over first," said Qiu Mu-Cheng calmly.
Now that she had thought things through, she didn't care about so-called dignity and vainglory.
After all, what was the point of chasing after an empty name?
Trees with good fruit naturally attracted people to come.
As long as she was outstanding enough, these things would come on their own accord.
If she became too fixated on these things, she would giving up on her roots and end up just pretending to be great and inviting embarrassment for herself.
Qiu Mu-Cheng went downstairs with Ye Fan.
"You stupid girl, you're absolutely blinded! That good-for-nothing told her to continue with the ceremony and she's seriously going with it? She's going to be the death of me! The two of them are going to embarrass us sooner or later!" shouted Han Li angrily from behind.
