A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 785 Gathering of Gods

"Stop it! You are an embarrassment. Just stay at the back," roared Ye Tian in fury. He hurriedly yanked Ye Ya's wife away.

Ye Ya's wife was so petrified she went pale and instantly shut up.

Then Ye Tian introduced himself as he trembled, "Secretary Ji, did you go to the wrong place? This is the Ye family, and no one here goes by Chu."

Hmm?

"Is this the wrong place?" asked Ji Yi-Hai as you turned to look at the man beside him.

This time, it was someone Ye Fan had met before.

It was none other than Lin Ping-Zhi whom he crossed paths with at 99 Steamboat Restaurant. He was there with Chen Nan.

"Ping-Zhi, check the address. Is this the wrong place?" "It's the right place. This was the address that Mr Lei gave us. 286 Yeyang. It's right!" replied Lin Ping-Zhi with certainty as he checked his phone.

"So you're that Ji Yi-Hai that Lei San talked about? The Secretary of Jingzhou?"

Just as Lin Ping-Zhi wondered whether they were at the right place, a calm voice quietly came from the courtyard.

"How dare you? You punk! You're just a useless live-in husband! How can you call Secretary Ji by his name? Do you want to die?"

The sudden sound of his voice left everyone in horror.

And they turned in the direction of the voice and discovered it was Ye Fan.

Shen Bi-Chen was furious and scolded Ye Fan sternly right away.

Ye Tian and the others were equally shocked and scolded Ye Fan one after another.

"How dare you?"

"How can you use this tone on Secretary Ji?"

"Hurry up and apologize to Secretary Ji this instant!"

"He's such a brat. He wants to get us all killed!"

"Ye Xi-Mei, look at this awful son you raised!"

Ye Ya was in shock and he scolded Ye Fan angrily too.

In the end, he was so angry that he even called his older sister's name in full.

Ye Xi-Mei was equally surprised, and her face turned pale.

After all, he was the leader of Jingzhou, so he was an important man. How could Ye Fan make the fatal mistake of disrespecting someone like him?

"That was stupid of you, Fan. Hurry up and apologize to Secretary Ji," said Old Master Ye anxiously nonstop with a sigh.

Just as everyone reprimanded Ye Fan, Ji Yi-Hai and the others unexpectedly bowed and paid their respects to Ye Fan to everyone's shock.

"I, Ji Yi-Hai, come bearing our well wishes for the holidays."

"I, Lin Ping-Zhi..."

"I, Wu Zhi-Ming..."

"I, Dong Xing..."

"We wish Mr Chu a happy new year! We wish Mr and Mrs Chu good fortune in the new year! And we wish Mr Chu's mother and grandfather a long healthy life!"

Their voices echoed through the air and merged like streams.

Then their reverent voices and words converged into waves and came crashing down on the shore!

Silence.

A deathly silence fell.

The huge residence went completely quiet.

Ye Tian, Ye Ya, and Ye Xi-Lan were all astounded by the sight.

Everyone in the family was dumbfounded!

They stared as those city officials paid their respects to Ye Fan. They were so terrified that waves of shock flooded through their hearts.

"Is...is Secretary Ji here to visit him...him? But how can that be? That's impossible! Absolutely impossible! He is just a live-in husband. How could men as noble as Lin Ping-Zhi and Ji Yi-Hai come and send their well wishes for the new year personally?" said Ye Tian in shock as his mind went blank.

Ye Ya and his wife looked on in disbelief.

"How could the leader of Jingzhou wish him a happy new year? That's impossible!

It can't be happening!"

"Is he fit? They are actors! They must be actors! The punk must have invited these actors," roared Ye Ya's wife indignantly.

Ye Jian's eyes were bloodshot. In his heart, he was equally resentful.

He used to despise Ye Fan, so he couldn't accept it when he realized what incomparable power and status he had.

So everyone in the family did everything they could to convince themselves that this was all fake and Ye Fan merely hired actors to fool them.

They were convinced Ye Fan was still the same man. The boy whom the Chu family abandoned like a dog and the submissive useless live-in husband. This was human nature.

They couldn't stand seeing someone they hated doing better than them.

They couldn't stand the sight of getting trampled on by someone they looked down on.

But could these things be avoided simply because they didn't want to see it?

Just us everyone looked on in disbelief, a car could be heard outside the old residence.

Very quickly, the bright voice of the boy at the door pierced through the air!

"Lei Ao-Ting, the heir of Lei Group, is here!"

"Mrs Lei from Lei Group is here!"

"Mr Lei San, the head of Lei Group and the Lei family, is here!"

What?

Lei Group?

"Master...Master Lei San?"

It was yet another twist to the plot.

The town was still in shock at the arrival of Ji Yi-Hai and the others. Before they managed to recover, Master Lei San from Lei Group turned up. The news crashed into the already tumultuous ocean like a massive rock and caused yet another tsunami.

In an instant, waves of shock surged through the residence!

Ye Tian and Ye Ya were so startled that they couldn't say a word.

Ye Jian and his mother were so surprised that they almost forgot to breathe.

They stared dead straight with their pupils constricting.

Even the worldly wise Old Master Ye was so anxious that he stood up.

He trembled as his face contorted in astonishment.

"Master...Master Lei San, is...is here too?"

Just as the Ye family sat petrified, the townsfolk watching on outside instantly

exploded.

"Oh my god!"

"All the leaders of Jingzhou came to visit them."

"Even Secretary Ji bowed to him."

"And now even Master Lei San is here?"

"Is there a dragon in the Ye family or something?"

Many people were exclaiming in shock.

The sound of everyone inhaling deeply could be heard.

Ever since Yeyang existed, no one had seen anything as spectacular as today.

All the important men of Jingzhou had gathered here, so everyone was undoubtedly awestruck.

"The Ye family is going to become strong and powerful one day," said someone enviously.

The main lead, Ye Fan, was surprisingly calm while everyone was flabbergasted.

The entire time, he sat with a calm look on his handsome face.

He seemed like a king smiling as he indifferently watched everything play out before him.

No matter who his guests were, not a ripple undulated through the man's heart.
