A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 579 An Absurd Life

"We will live here from now on then. I'll bring my things over tonight," said Qiu Mu-Cheng excitedly as she walked barefooted up and down the carpet.

She looked so happy that she seemed like a sparrow that had broken free from its cage.

Ye Fan's face was filled with deep gratification and smiles too.

This bliss must be the reason men toil hard all day.

It was Ye Fan's greatest comfort to see how happy his woman was!

"Mu-Cheng, this is only a start to all the surprises coming your way. Just you wait. Before long, we will move into an even bigger house and I will let you enjoy even more glory!"

Ye Fan smiled as he looked at her with determination in his heart.

Ye Fan wanted to tell Qiu Mu-Cheng about the Mount Yunding villa today too.

But after some consideration, Ye Fan didn't say it in the end.

After all, this woman didn't even believe he was Mr Chu. Why would she believe him if he told her about the villa?

"But Mu-Cheng, soon you will believe how powerful your husband is.'

The sun beamed brightly outside.

Ye Fan had a sense of grandeur in his heart.

But just as Qiu Mu-Cheng was feeling exhilarated about moving, the doorbell suddenly rang.

"Did you invite someone over?"

The sudden sound of the doorbell left Qiu Mu-Cheng and Ye Fan somewhat surprised.

Ye Fan shook his head and replied, "No, I didn't."

Qiu Mu-Cheng walked over and opened the door perplexedly.

She was stunned the moment she opened it.

"Qianqian?" asked Qiu Mu-Cheng in surprise.

No one knew about them renting the place yet, so she didn't expect Su Qian to turn up.

"Haha! Qianqian, you're just in time. I was about to tell you that Ye Fan rented this place. I'm going to move here from Liuyuan Residential District. I can't remember the address yet, so I'll text you later. Why don't you come over for dinner?" said Qiu Mu-Cheng as she smiled and invited Su Qian.

Only then did Qiu Mu-Cheng notice how pale Su Qian was. There was absolutely no color on her face.

She was so wan, it seemed as though she had just recovered from a severe illness.

"Qianqian, what's gotten into you?" asked

Qiu Mu-Cheng worriedly.

"Nothing, Mu-Cheng. I just wanted to confirm something. It has nothing to do with you," replied Su Qian softly. Then she turned to walk towards Ye Fan.

Ye Fan couldn't help shuddering when he sensed Su Qian's stare. He wondered if Su Qian found out who he really was.

Amid Ye Fan's fear, Su Qian's listless voice came.

"Ye Fan, I want to ask you. Did you stay here a few months ago? Was that you playing harmonica by the window? Were you dressed in a white shirt?" interrogated Su Qian continuously with her eyes all red. Ye Fan was stunned. He had no idea what she was driving at.

Why was Su Qian asking about this?

But Qiu Mu-Cheng seemed to suddenly realize something and her lovely face darkened a little.

An ominous feeling swiftly rose in her heart.

"Say something! Ye Fan, say something, you idiot! Tell me if you were the man playing the harmonica?" said with her voice almost trembling and eyes red.

Qiu Mu-Cheng might have thought that Ye Fan had taken advantage of Su Qian if she didn't know better.

"It...it was me. I did stay here for a few days and played the harmonica while I was here. What's up? What happened?" asked Ye Fan in a deep voice quizzically. Su Qian was almost certain of Ye Fan's identity before she made her way here.

But when she heard it from Ye Fan's mouth, tears came tumbling down her face uncontrollably in an instant.

The perfect love she had kept in her heart for so long got ripped out of her instantly.

Su Qian cried torrentially as she howled. She roared at Ye Fan sadly, "Why was it

you? Why you? Why?"

Su Qian cried as she shouted tragically before turning to run.

Her first love and man of her dreams, the perfect love she had kept in her heart all this time had turned out to be Ye Fan.

It was Ye Fan whom she despised all this time.

And he was even her best friend's husband.

It was even more ironic that she had badmouthed Ye Fan to Qiu Mu-Cheng all this time and persuaded her to divorce him.

In hindsight, Su Qian found it ironic and preposterous.

"Qianqian! Qianqian!" shouted Qiu Mu-Cheng from behind. She was worried that Su Qian might do something foolish, so she hurriedly chased after her.

She even scolded Ye Fan before she left.

"It's all your fault. Why admit it was you? Couldn't you have pretended not to know? Now Qianqian is heartbroken," sighed Qiu Mu-Cheng before hurrying after Su Qian.

Although Su Qian often made Qiu Mu-Cheng angry, she knew Su Qian did it with kind intentions.

The last time she was sad, Su Qian brought her to Mount Tai for a walk too.

They had been friends for years, so Qiu Mu-Cheng couldn't leave Su Qian in the lurch.

Poor Ye Fan was left stunned.

Ye Fan got scolded by two women for no reason. More importantly, Ye Fan had no clue what they were talking about.

He did nothing to provoke Su Qian. Why was it his fault that she cried?

"What the hell is going on?" said Ye Fan speechlessly.

Su Qian ran for a long distance before she was tired and had to stop.

She sat on the steps by herself and wailed with her head between her knees.

The truth was undoubtedly a huge blow to Su Qian.

For a girl who had never dated before, Su Qian definitely felt awful about how absurd her first crush was.

Qiu Mu-Cheng had already hurried over by this time. She sat down next to Su Qian and handed her some tissue.

"Mu-Cheng, you must be dying to laugh at me. Just go ahead. Even I'm laughing at myself for looking down on you and thinking you married some idiot. I kept persuading you to divorce Ye Fan and calling him

a good-for-nothing and useless bum. But it turned out Ye Fan is the love of my life. I think my life is a cruel joke! Even TV dramas aren't as absurd, right?"

Su Qian's voice choked as these tragic words flowed from her. She couldn't help crying.

Qiu Mu-Cheng didn't know what to say either. After a long time, she said, "Qianqian, I didn't think he would turn out to be Ye Fan either."

There were many people on the road during this time.

But many passersby were attracted by these two beautiful ladies.

There were even some who sighed, "Oh dear, another two young ladies have sold themselves to the rich men here."
