A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 399 The Terrified Lei Ao-Ting

Han Li and Qiu Lei couldn't think of any other reason.

It couldn't be because of the two of them.

Neither of them was capable, so nobody would care about them.

Han Li knew that much about herself.

As for Ye Fan?

Oh please.

He was a country bumpkin and a live-in son-in-law no less. Only a blind person would come for his sake.

These men had congratulated Ye Fan only because he was married to their daughter.

With such considerations in mind, Han Li and Qiu Lei became even friendlier than before.

They were still upset about how there were no rich young men trying to woo their daughter.

And now they had all come at once.

Of course Han Li was thrilled.

When Sun Yu-Hao had run off at the last minute, Han Li and Qiu Lei were terribly disappointed and thought that they had missed a golden opportunity to snag a rich son-in-law. But it turned out to be a blessing in disguise.

They were glad that Sun Yu-Hao had run off back then. Otherwise, they wouldn't have had the chance to hook their daughter up with a truly powerful one like Young Master Lei here.

Once Qiu Mu-Cheng was engaged to the Lei family, Han Li was determined to send Sun Yu-Hao a wedding invitation to rub it in his face!

So what if Sun Yu-Hao didn't care for her daughter? Someone even better had come along now.

"Come, Young Master Lei, have some tea.

My Mu-Cheng made this cup specially for you. It's high grade Maojian tea, and it's a few thousand for just 500 grams." Han Li sat next to Lei Ao-Ting and continued to serve him and acted all friendly around him.

Qiu Mu-Cheng and Ye Fan were seated elsewhere and was drinking their own tea.

"This...er...Auntie, that's not very nice, right? I'm not worthy of drinking tea made by Miss Qiu."

Lei Ao-Ting started to panic. Han Li's friendliness was making him feel very uncomfortable.

He felt like he had stolen the limelight from Mr Chu and his wife, and it was as if he was the host now.

"Why do you say that? It's our great honor to have you at this event. Don't talk about making tea - it's right for Mu-Cheng to even give a toast to you," laughed Han Li merrily as she forced Lei Ao-Ting to drink the tea down.

After he finished the tea, Han Li asked him with great anticipation, "How's it? My daughter makes good tea, doesn't she?"

Of course Lei Ao-Ting didn't dare to say otherwise. He quickly nodded profusely and complimented, "Miss Qiu is really good in these things."

"Hoho, that's great to hear." Han Li nodded with a pleased look on her face and continued, "Young Master Lei, since you've already finished the tea, let me ask you some questions. You must answer me honestly."

"Huh?" Lei Ao-Ting started to get annoyed with Han Li. He felt that Mr Chu's mother-in-law was seriously longwinded and kept talking to him nonstop since she sat down next to him. He didn't even get a chance to talk to Mr Chu at all.

But she was Mr Chu's mother-in-law after all, so Lei Ao-Ting didn't dare to be rude. He just put his best smile on and said, "Auntie, please go ahead and ask me anything you like." "Good. Young Master Lei, what do you think of our Mu-Cheng's looks?"

"Oh of course she's naturally gorgeous and even the flowers feel ashamed of themselves next to her. Miss Qiu is the prettiest woman I've seen in my life," Lei Ao-Ting blurted out without thinking, and used the most flattering words he knew.

Mr Chu was watching him, so of course Lei Ao-Ting had to say that she was pretty.

Besides, Lei Ao-Ting was speaking from his heart as well.

Mr Chu's wife was indeed a rare beauty.

And it was because she was such a rare beauty, she had managed to capture the heart of a capable man like Mr Chu, right?

"Haha! As long as you think she's pretty!" Han Li was so tickled that she started laughing loudly and was sure that she was going to get somewhere tonight.

Han Li quickly took the chance and continued asking. "Then Young Master Lei,

what do you think of my Mu-Cheng's figure?"

"Oh that goes without saying! Miss Qiu has excellent curves and is of wonderful proportions, and she's definitely out of this world. She's as beautiful as a nymph and elegant and graceful. As the saying goes, a beauty goes with a hero. A beautiful woman like herself is definitely only worthy of the most prestigious man in the world." Lei Ao-Ting's compliments couldn't stop flowing out from his mouth.

He had used every single line in the book.

Qiu Mu-Cheng started reddening from embarrassment when she heard these words.

Wang Yuchen sat next to him and his eyelids twitched as his hair stood on end.

This Lei Ao-Ting really knew how to suck up to others!

Even though Lei Ao-Ting was saying nice things about Qiu Mu-Cheng, he was really praising Mr Chu along the way.

That last bit about being the most prestigious man in the world was definitely referring to Mr Chu.

But Ye Fan just continued sipping tea silently without any change in expression as if he hadn't heard anything.

But these words really made Han Li so excited.

She excitedly grabbed Lei Ao-Ting's hands and couldn't stop laughing.

"What wonderful words, what wonderful words! A beauty does go with a hero. A beauty like my Mu-Cheng can only be worthy of a prestigious man like you, Young Master Lei. I was still a little worried earlier, but I'm so relieved to hear that you like our Mu-Cheng so much."

Wait, what?

"Aun...Auntie, wh-what do you mean?" Lei Ao-Ting finally realized something was amiss and his lips started twitching.

"What do I mean? Exactly what you think I mean! Young Master Lei, I know why you're here today. Don't worry, since you like my Mu-Cheng so much, then I'll make a decision on her behalf, and you'll be my son-in-law from now on," replied Han Li with a smile.

What?

Son-in-law?!

Lei Ao-Ting's eyes nearly fell out of their sockets and he was rooted to the spot.

Han Li thought that Lei Ao-Ting was behaving this way because he was too pleasantly surprised, so she continued, "Ohohoho! Young Master Lei, no need to be so surprised. I'm only too happy to have a son- in-law like you. I'll get my Mu-Cheng to divorce that useless live-in son-in-law as soon as possible, then she can live with you and have children for the Lei family. Come, Young Master Lei, drink up this cup of wine and we'll be family from now on."

"What the fuck?! Don't get me into trouble here!!"

Lei Ao-Ting immediately exploded after hearing these words.

He got up from his chair with a start.

Lei Ao-Ting couldn't be bothered about the fact that Han Li was Mr Chu's mother-in-law anymore. In his anger, he slapped Han Li so hard that she fell to the floor along with the chair she was on.

After hearing Han Li say that she wanted Qiu Mu-Cheng to have children with him, Lei Ao-Ting was terrified and his face paled as his soul nearly left his body.

Who was Qiu Mu-Cheng?

She was Mr Chu's woman!

Lei Ao-Ting had offended Ye Fan not too long ago and had barely survived that incident.

He had come to congratulate Mr Chu on behalf of the Lei family in order to mend his relationship with Mr Chu.

But this crazy bitch tried to get him into trouble!

She wanted Mr Chu's woman to have children with him?!

That was definitely throwing Lei Ao-Ting into hellfire!

"Oh my god!" Lei Ao-Ting was nearly in tears and he trembled violently as he looked at Ye Fan and apologized profusely, "Mr...Mr Chu, this...this is really not my fault..." "Even if you increased my boldness by a million times, I wouldn't dare to covet your wife..."
