A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 548 Fire Burning Within

Li Er felt his eyelid twitch.

Mr Chu could really show off when he wanted to!

But since Ye Fan had said so, Li Er could only agree.

"Sure, Mr Chu. I'll definitely purchase the villa on Mount Yunding as soon as possible!"

After hanging up, Li Er got to work.

$50 billion was no small sum even to Li Er.

But Li Er didn't dare to grumble. After all, everything that Li Er had came from Ye Fan.

On top of that, after the battle at Mount Tai, a large portion of the assets of the richest man in Jiangdong then, Zhao Wu-Ji, had been given to Li Er to manage. It was worth more than $100 billion, so Li Er was more than able to use $50 billion out of that.

Huuuuu...

The cold wind blew outside.

The night was quiet.

Ye Fan stood by the window and his deep set eyes reflected the millions of stars in the sky.

"Mu-Cheng, it won't be long. I will give you everything that you want. You have suffered so much pain and humiliation over the past three years, so before I leave, I'm going to get everything back for you!" His quiet words floated far away with the night wind.

The next morning.

A piece of news had shaken up all of Yunzhou.

Mr Chu had paid $50 billion up front to purchase the bungalow on Mount Yunding!

It caused an uproar in Yunzhou immediately.

The TV and the news was reporting on

this.

It was as if a huge rock had dropped into the sea and was raising a tsunami in the whole city of Yunzhou.

"What? Someone bought that bungalow on Mount Yunding?"

"Oh my goodness! It's been ten years! Many people have viewed the place but nobody has ever been able to buy it. Even the richest man in Jiangdong couldn't bear to part with $50 billion just to buy a bungalow. But now, a truly wealthy man has appeared. The Mount Yunding bungalow has finally found an owner! Mr Chu is truly amazing!"

"Oh my god! $50 billion is half of Shen Group! He bought it just like that? Mr Chu is incredible! He's truly the hero of Jiangdong and can afford to just spend billions like that. Mr Chu is the true dragon of Yunzhou!"

"That's how a man should be!"

Everyone was discussing this and exclaiming.

Everyone in Yunzhou were clearly impressed by the spending power of this Mr Chu.

For many nights after this, so many women had gone crazy and fallen in love with Mr Chu because of this.

They all dreamt of becoming Mr Chu's woman and live in the Mount Yunding bungalow to reach the peak of Yunzhou. Then they would become both Yunzhou and Jiangdong's queen!

In Liuyuan Residential District.

Ye Fan and family were still eating breakfast when Han Li found out about this from the TV. She immediately got excited and her eyes were red from envy.

"$50 billion just for a house?! Oh my god. That's SO much money! Mr Chu is truly impressive! If my daughter could marry Mr Chu, then I'm going to smile myself awake every morning. But unfortunately our Mu Cheng isn't very blessed and she's married a useless bum instead. Never mind spending $50 billion to buy a bungalow. I'd bet he can't even buy a toilet. Her entire life has been held back by this piece of trash."

Han Li was filled with envy and jealousy.

Han Li looked at how Ye Fan was just silently eating his breakfast and she started to get angry.

"You useless thing, how dare you just sit there and eat? Look at Mr Chu and look at yourself! You're both men, but the different is as great as the difference between heaven and earth. You're really just an idiot who doesn't want to work hard at all! If I were you, I would have just smashed my own head against the wall to die!" shouted Han Li angrily.

"Mum, that's enough! Don't say anymore! Mr Chu is like the sky over Jiangdong the dragon of Yunzhou. He's of such high standing and prestige and there are very few people who can be compared to him. It's not fair to compare Ye Fan with him!" retorted Qiu Mu-Cheng angrily as she put her chopsticks down. Her mother was making so much noise early in the morning and it made her upset.

Just after Qiu Mu-Cheng said this, her phone started ringing.

It was Su Qian.

"OHHHH MYYY GAAAWD Mu-Cheng, did you see the news? Mr Chu! It's Mr Chu! He bought the bungalow on Mount Yunding! Do you think he bought it for me? You know, I've always wanted to live there. That bungalow is on the highest point of Yunzhou! Mr Chu will be the emperor of Yunzhou when he moves in, while I will be the empress of Yunzhou."

Su Qian had clearly gone mad with excitement. The moment the call got through, she couldn't stop telling Qiu Mu-Cheng about how excited and happy she was.

Ye Fan could hear the conversation and his eyelids kept twitching.

This Su Qian really had a wild imagination.

How was she worth him buying her a bungalow?

Qiu Mu-Cheng was equally speechless.

But she wasn't surprised.

After all, her best friend wasn't a new admirer of Mr Chu. Ever since they watched that battle at Mount Tai, Su Qian had decided that Mr Chu was the person she would spend the rest of her life with. Now that Mr Chu had bought the bungalow on Mount Yunding, that meant that Mr Chu was going to live permanently in Yunzhou.

Since her idol was going to live so near to her, it was hard for Su Qian not to be excited.

"Alright now, you're one crazy woman. Why would Mr Chu like a crazy woman like you?

You'd better hold yourself back," sighed Qiu Mu-Cheng

Of course she didn't think Mr Chu would buy that bungalow for Su Qian.

That bungalow represented being the most powerful in all of Yunzhou, and all women wanted to live there. Qiu Mu-Cheng had dreamt about it more than ten years ago too, and she wished that she could live there to become the queen of Yunzhou.

So Su Qian's hope of living in that bungalow didn't really have anything to do with Mr Chu buying it.

"Alright now, if there's nothing else, I'm hanging up. I'm still eating breakfast." Qiu Mu-Cheng couldn't be bothered to entertain Su Qian and wanted to hang up.

"Mu-Cheng, don't hang up yet. I've got important matters to report!" Su Qian quickly stopped Qiu Mu-Cheng.

After a moment.

"What? Something's happened at the site? Which one? Ok, you call the police, I'll be there soon!"

Qiu Mu-Cheng's expression immediately fell after hearing what Su Qian said.

She couldn't be bothered with breakfast anymore. She got changed, grabbed her bag and ran downstairs.

"Mu-Cheng, what's wrong? You haven't even finished breakfast yet. No matter how serious the matter is, you should still finish breakfast!" Han Li shouted after her. But Qiu Mu-Cheng didn't seem to have heard her and just ran off.

Ye Fan frowned slightly at this.

Something must have happened at the company.

Ye Fan was too worried to continue eating, so he got up to leave.

"Where do you think you're going? You haven't even washed the dishes yet! Wash them before leaving!" Han Li commanded him nastily, as if she was ordering a servant about.

Ye Fan took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart. He quickly cleared the table and brought everything to the kitchen to wash.

But even so, Han Li continued to sit in the living room and rant on and on.

"This stupid piece of trash only knows how to wash dishes and can't do anything else. He just leeches off us every day and doesn't earn a single cent. Our neighbor's son-in-law has already changed to a new car, but this stupid trash still goes around on his scooter every day. I think even keeping a dog is better than this trash. At least a dog won't embarrass us."

Han Li's tone of voice when she ordered Ye Fan to wash the dishes already made Ye Fan unhappy.

He had always just endured this attitude of hers because of Qiu Mu-Cheng. But now, even though he was already washing the dishes, Han Li was still grumbling away. Ye Fan couldn't stand the fury that was burning within him anymore.

He flung the cutlery in his hands onto the floor.

PIAANGGG!
