A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) -
Chapter 393 Chorus of Congratulations
Qiu Mu-Cheng's ridiculous parents had really thoroughly embarrassed her this time.
But they were her parents after all, so Qiu Mu-Cheng couldn't just leave them in the lurch.
She walked over to help Han Li to her feet as she muttered in an upset voice, "I told you not to go just now, but you refused to listen to me. Look at what happened! You've been hit, and the little edge that we gained is all gone now!"
Qiu Mu-Cheng was about to die from being angry.
She had told her mother that she didn't know Wu Yong and the rest, so these people weren't headed for Mufan Real Estate.
But Han Li refused to listen to her and insisted on welcoming the people who had just arrived so as to steal the limelight.
In the end, nothing good came out of it. Besides failing to steal the limelight, she had been slapped and caused Qiu Mu-Cheng to be embarrassed.
At the moment, Wang Qiao-Yu had come out as well and saw Qiu Mu-Cheng and her mother. She smiled brightly and walked over as she gleefully said with a haughty voice, "Qiu Mu-Cheng, now you know the difference between yourself and our Yingying, right?"
"So what if CEOs come to congratulate you? So what if directors of corporations come to congratulate you? They're nothing but merchants, so how could they be compared to real big shots like Young Master Wu? Merchants got rich because they had to rely on the government. If the government allows you to become rich, then you can become rich. But if they want you to become poor, then you'd become a pauper in no time even if you're the richest person now!" Wang Qiao-Yu shook her head and laughed. Her words were filled with such glee and mocking.
"Qiu Mu-Cheng, I don't know what tactics you used to get so many rich people of Yunzhou here today, but even if all the rich people of Yunzhou come to congratulate you, your family is still never as good as mine!" Wang Qiao-Yu said these words with great pride. She used the tone of a victor to continue mocking Qiu Mu-Cheng's family.
"Oh, really?" A faint laughter rang out as Wang Qiao-Yu was still feeling smug.
Ye Fan had walked over without any of them noticing him.
He had a faint smile on his fair face and it was very calm as he looked at Wang Qiao-Yu and asked her quietly, "Auntie Yu, I wonder, what sort of people do you think are comparable to powerful people like Young Master Wu?"
Wang Qiao-Yu chortled, "If you want to be comparable to Young Master Wu, then you've got to at least be someone like the eldest son of the Li family in Yunzhou, the daughter of Chen Ao in Jianghai, the son of Lei San in Jingzhou or the young master of the Wang family in Haozhou." "These children of the big shots in Jiangdong who can control the entire city are worthy to be compared to someone as powerful as Young Master Wu. As for the rest, they can be rich, but they're worthless in front of true power. Why are you asking such a stupid question? Don't tell me you're going to ask Master Li Er's son to come and show his support here?" said Wang Qiao-Yu as she lifted her chin arrogantly to look down at Ye Fan. Her voice was filled with superiority and a great disgust and disdain for Ye Fan.
At the end of the day, Ye Fan was still a country bumpkin and a useless bum who married into his wife's family to the Qiu family.
Or you could say that this useless bum was never worth anything to the Qius.
Ye Fan just shook his head and smiled. "I might not be able to call on the son of the Li family in Yunzhou, but if you're talking about Chen Ao's daughter, the son of the Lei family and the son of the Wang family, I should be able to get them here." "Who knows? Maybe they might appear in a while?" Ye Fan's light chuckle echoed quietly.
What the hell was with this ridiculous display of arrogance?!
Wang Qiao-Yu's expression immediately darkened as she looked at Ye Fan like he was an idiot and just went ahead to curse at him, "Are you an idiot? The Chen family's daughter? The Lei family's son? The Wang family's son? Who the hell do you think you are? The secretary of the country? Some president of sorts? Even Wu Yong's father isn't that amazing."
"You're seriously an idiot! You're just a useless bum and you're dreaming of getting the big shots in Jiangdong to come here and congratulate you? Who do you even think you are?!" yelled Wang Qiao-Yu with much disdain and mocking towards Ye Fan as she stood with her hands on her hips.
She had simply named a few examples and this stupid useless fellow actually took her word for it.
And he sounded as if he was really confident that he could get these big shots' children to come here.
Everyone else was also staring at Ye Fan like he was a freak, and also felt that Qiu Mu-Cheng's husband was seriously an idiot.
He was still spouting nonsense and bragging at a time like this.
Being stupid like this couldn't change anything, and it would actually make it more awkward for Qiu Mu-Cheng.
"Mum, what's going on? I can hear your voice from inside the hotel."
The commotion here had attracted a lot of attention.
Even Qiu Mu-Ying and her family members had walked over from the lobby and were curious about what happened after hearing Wang Qiao-Yu shout so loudly earlier. "Yingying, you're here at the right time.
Hurry up and greet our dear Young Master Ye here, who says that the daughter of Chen Ao in Jianghai, the son of the Lei family in Jingzhou as well as the young master of the Wang family in Haozhou are all on their way here. If we're too late in greeting him, then we might not have any place to stand and we'll lose our chance. HOHOHO!" said Wang Qiao-Yu after pulling her daughter over. Her mocking voice sounded like she was talking to an idiot.
Qiu Mu-Ying went along and pretended to act all shocked before responding in an equally mocking voice, "Oh my god, are you serious? Mu-Cheng, look at this wonderful husband of yours. With this Young Master Ye around, your family's going to rise in status. Hurry up and tell your mother to make some cheap steamed buns, because the daughter of the Chen family in the next village, the son of the Lei family in the next town and the son of the Wang family in the back alley are arriving soon. They're all really important people, so you'd better entertain them well. Oh, do you have enough food to go round? If there isn't enough food, we could send our leftovers here. Cheap steamed buns and leftovers would be such delicacies! Ohohohoho!"
Qiu Mu-Ying's words made everyone laugh.
Wang Qiao-Yu and Jiang Hong were both bent over from laughing.
All the onlookers couldn't stop laughing as well.
They just felt that this granddaughter of the Qiu family was really good with her words. Her words were so poisonous and she had managed to insult the other party with every single sentence without the use of profanities.
In no time, Qiu Mu-Cheng and her family had become a joke to everyone watching.
Ye Fan's eyes started to grow cold as well.
He looked at Qiu Mu-Ying and his voice was icy. "Are you trying to cause trouble here?" "I wouldn't dare to, you're the almighty Young Master Ye after all. You're the famous Young Master of the countryside with plenty of land back home, but you're still happily living off your wife for free. You even think the son of the secretary and the son of the police commissioner are nobodies, so you must be incredible, right? We're such lowly people, so why would we dare to offend you?" Qiu Mu-Ying continued to grin smugly.
But just as the Qiu family was still feeling gleeful.
VROOOM...
The loud sound of car engines reached their ears.
Soon enough, more than ten luxury cars came rolling in from the other end of the road.
Their incredible aura and the prestige that came flowing along with them were like the emperor's subjects coming to see him, or like believers on their journey to mecca.
They shouted loudly!
They roared away!
It was as if they were soldiers guarding the king's land, and had come from afar like a rushing river!
They came with great admiration and reverence!
They were here to send their congratulations!
