A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 594 You Don't Understand Me at All

Ye Fan looked arrogantly at the woman in front of him with a cold smile on his face.

"Qiu Mu-Cheng, Qiu Mu-Cheng. You only know that one must not incur the wrath of the Li family, but did you know that one must also not incur the wrath of your man?!"

"You know that Li Er has immense power and influence, but did you know that no matter how powerful he is, he is only one of my dogs?!"

It was deathly silent.

The huge living room was filled with nothing else but the howling wind and the echo of Ye Fan's furious voice.

Qiu Mu-Cheng and Su Qian were both so frightened that their faces were pale and they were rooted to the floor.

They didn't even dare to breathe too loudly.

For some reason, they suddenly felt like the Ye Fan before them was so strange to them.

He was so unfamiliar, it made them afraid.

It made them feel as though they didn't know him at all.

After a long period of silence, Ye Fan took a deep breath.

His emotions had calmed down, so he turned to go upstairs.

But when he reached the bottom of the stairs, Ye Fan suddenly stopped and shook his head with his back facing them.

"You don't understand me at all." His low and quiet words flowed through the room with the wind.

By the time Qiu Mu-Cheng and Su Qian looked up, Ye Fan had already gone upstairs.

They were left with nothing but silence.

After a long time, Qiu Mu-Cheng looked at Su Qian with bloodshot eyes.

Her tears started flowing down her cheeks without her realizing it.

Her voice cracked as she said through her tears, "Qianqian, did I do the wrong thing? I meant it for his own good, so why doesn't he appreciate it? Or is it really because I don't understand him and everything he said was true?" Qiu Mu-Cheng continued to sob uncontrollably.

"Mu-Cheng, Ye Fan was too angry and just said those things in a fit. Don't tell me you're going to believe anything he said? How could those things be true? Master Li Er is so powerful and influential, so how could he be Ye Fan's dog? He was just saying all that out of anger," Su Qian tried her best to comfort Qiu Mu-Cheng.

But Qiu Mu-Cheng only cried even harder.

"Why should he say angry things? How could he shout at me like that? What did I do wrong? I did this for his own good and I was thinking for him, so how could he bully me like that?" Qiu Mu-Cheng's tears continued to flow.

This was the first time in three years that Ye Fan had blown up so badly at her.

It was impossible for Qiu Mu-Cheng not to feel terrified or afraid as a result.

But of course, Qiu Mu-Cheng was upset and felt like she had been misunderstood.

She had said all that because she was worried about Ye Fan. Why didn't he appreciate it at all?

But Qiu Mu-Cheng didn't realize that concern could be shown in many different ways.

She had no idea that the things she said hurt Ye Fan's heart deeply instead.

But it was inevitable for a husband and wife to quarrel from time to time.

The two of them were still young and it was their first love relationship and marriage too, so there was no other way to bring themselves closer to one another besides going through one trial after another. Su Qian felt bad when she saw how heartbroken Qiu Mu-Cheng looked and continued to comfort her, "Mu-Cheng, you didn't do anything wrong. That stupid idiot doesn't know what's good for him and doesn't appreciate your concern. You didn't do anything wrong, so don't cry anymore. When he's calmed down and thought it through, he'll come back to apologize to you..>"

A dim yellow light flickered and slowly filled the dark room with light.

Ye Fan returned to his room and shut the door behind him. The world immediately became more peaceful.

"Han, you called?" Ye Fan answered a phone call and tried to sound calm, but his voice was still trembling slightly.

"Young Master, are you alright?" asked Han worriedly as he noticed something didn't sound quite right.

Ye Fan quietly replied, "I'm fine. Say what you wanted to."

"It's about the last time you told me to find Miss Qiu a bodyguard. After thinking about it, I think it's best to send Qing Tan over. She's one of the 12 Dragon Guards, meticulous and likes quiet places, so I think she's the best one to protect Miss Qiu. But Qing Tan is still on a training mission and hasn't come back yet, so I'm afraid she won't be able to reach Yunzhou in time," said Han carefully.

Ye Fan nodded. "Sure, we'll go with that then. As for the timing, as long as she gets here before we arrive at the Chu family, it'll do."

"Sure, Young Master. I will make arrangements right now."

Han hung up after getting the go ahead from Ye Fan.

While Ye Fan sat cross-legged on the bed.

He closed his eyes slightly and started chanting the Invocation of the Celestial Cloud in his heart.

As his heart slowly calm down, a faint green glow flowed out from the piece of jade placed in front of Ye Fan.

It flowed into Ye Fan's body as he breathed and gathered within his dantian.

After some time, Ye Fan's eyes suddenly opened up again.

"The energy inside this jade is really able to help me with my cultivation process. Looks like I have to pay that cave a visit before the Feast of the Sea and Sky," thought Ye Fan quietly to himself. Yup, that piece of jade was the one Ye Fan got from Treasure Trove earlier that night.

From the moment he saw it, Ye Fan could sense that this piece wasn't ordinary.

He realized that this piece of jade carried an extremely concentrated amount of energy from the universe.

The Book of Celestial Cloud wrote that there was a soul within jade rocks that could absorb the essence of the sun and moon, and could contain the energy of the universe.

But most jade pieces carried very small and sparse amounts of energy if any at all.

However, the piece he had right now had a very intense energy within it.

So Ye Fan immediately figured that if he could find the source of this jade, then it would definitely be of tremendous help to the speed at which he could finally master Invoking the Celestial Cloud. But Ye Fan was in no hurry and waited for news from Li Xue-Qi.

The Xishan area was quite large, so without anybody leading the way, it would be hard for Ye Fan to find it.

If the Liang family was willing to lead him there, it would save Ye Fan a lot of trouble.

The night soon passed.

The next morning, Ye Fan went downstairs to find that Qiu Mu-Cheng had already left for work.

She was probably still angry about what happened last night.

But Ye Fan wasn't going to explain himself. Qiu Mu-Cheng wasn't going to believe him no matter what he said anyway.

Everything would be revealed on New Year's Day, and these girls would finally find out who Ye Fan really was.

It was soon afternoon time.

The call that Ye Fan had been waiting for finally arrived.

"Mr Chu, I've talked to the Liang family and they happen to be heading for the mountain tonight. If you want to go along, then it would be good if you can reach the Xishan Garden Hotel before 5PM. You can just tell them why you're there and someone will lead you in," said Li Xue-Qi respectfully over the phone.

Ye Fan nodded and just replied with an 'Ok'.

He looked at the time to find that it was 308PM!
