A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 802 Preparation Prior to Cultivation

"Fan, I think Mu-Cheng should run the company. I can't do it. I haven't done any business for over ten years. How can you give me such a high position from the moment I start? I don't think I can manage." Ye Xi-Mei sat inside a luxurious office in Mufan Group's branch office dressed in a white pantsuit with her long hair done up with a phoenix hairpiece. From a distance, she looked elegant and gorgeous. No one would have guessed that this elegant woman had lived in the countryside for ten years raising Ye Fan.

Even the most beautiful woman would age after ten years.

Just like Ye Xi-Mei.

Many years ago, Ye Xi-Mei once helped that man open the Chinese markets and ran his business.

As the saying went, behind every successful man was a successful woman.

And Ye Xi-Mei was the woman who stood behind Ye Fan's father.

It was no exaggeration to say that Ye Xi-Mei was the one who made the Chu family and its business so powerful back in the day.

Of course, Ye Xi-Mei only worked behind the scenes, so very few people knew about her.

In the whole world, only two people knew about it.

One of them was Ye Fan, while the other was the man whom Ye Xi-Mei vowed to spend her life with.

Of course, she had also ended up counting on the wrong man.

After being out of the business circles for so long, she was startled when Ye Fan wanted to make her CEO, so she kept rejecting him.

Instead, Ye Fan smiled and shook his head as he said, "Mum, it's okay. Just take your time. Moreover, when you used to help him run the entire family's business in the country, you dealt with hundreds of millions worth of turnover on a daily basis. I feel that it's a waste of your talent to make you a CEO of this little branch office as it is."

Qiu Mu-Cheng and Shin Yu-Xiang were instantly shocked to hear this.

"Oh my god! Did Auntie Xi-Mei use to be such a high flyer when she was young? If she took care of hundreds of millions of dollars on a daily basis, she ought to have been the deputy CEO or something, right?" exclaimed Shen Yu-Xiang in surprise.

Qiu Mu-Cheng was slightly stunned. She instantly felt that her mother-in-law wasn't as simple as she looked.

"It's all in the past now. Why talk about it?"

Ye Fan's words seemed to evoke dreadful memories in Ye Xi-Mei's mind, so she instantly became a lot less high spirited.

Ye Fan realized he had said the wrong thing, so he quickly stopped talking about it. Instead, he consoled her by saying, "Mum, you don't have to feel too stressed out. I will get Lei San to send someone and assist you."

"Okay then." Since Ye Xi-Mei was incapable of changing Ye Fan's mind, she agreed to serve as CEO.

After taking care of his mother's matters, Ye Fan left the company with Shin Yu-Xiang.

It was night time, so the air was quiet while the moon glowed softly.

The two of them walked side by side on the busy streets of Jingzhou under the moonlight. Now that Ye Fan had taken care of his mother and resolved his biggest worry, his mood lifted. "Xiang, how are things doing on your end?

Have Wen-Ya's parents agreed to your marriage?" The two of them chatted as they walked.

Although Ye Fan had forcibly helped Shin Yu-Xiang to take Du Wen-Ya back at that wedding banquet, her parents refused to allow them to marry.

Shin Yu-Xiang came from the countryside, and more importantly, he didn't have a proper job, so it was hard for them to entrust their daughter to him.

They were worried that their daughter would suffer in the future.

Ye Fan could understand their worries.

"Hoho! Fan, I was about to tell you. Wen-Ya's parents immediately caved in on our marriage the moment they found out I became GM of a multi-billion dollar company. We will be getting our marriage registered tomorrow." Shin Yu-Xiang laughed so merrily that his eyes narrowed into a slit.

"Great! Xiang, then allow me to congratulate you in advance," said Ye Fan happily.

"What is there for you to congratulate? If you didn't keep helping me, Wen-Ya would have married someone else by now. Fan, getting to know you is the best thing that happened to me. If not for you, there wouldn't be a shred of light in my life," said Shin Yu-Xiang gratefully in a deep voice as the night wind blew gently.

Shin Yu-Xiang was genuinely grateful to Ye Fan.

After graduating for so many years, he had seen his fair share of cold-hearted and materialistic people, but Ye Fan was the only person who had treated him kindly all these years.

Ye Fan helped him win his wife over and even gave him status and glory.

Shin Yu-Xiang knew he wasn't that capable. If it were up to him alone, he wouldn't have the right to work as an assistant in the company, let alone a general manager.

At the thought of this, the corners of his eyes turned slightly red.

He suddenly raised his head and looked at Ye Fan and said resolutely, "Fan, I will work for you for life for as long as you will have me!"

HUUU!

The cold wind swept across Shin Yu-Xiang's words slowly in the night air.

Ye Fan instantly shivered when he heard his words.

"Good god, what's with these mushy words! It's giving me the chills! Enough. Don't give me this nonsense. The important thing is to keep bettering yourself. I can help you for the time being, but you have to stand on your own two feet eventually. Life is too long for anyone to help you the entire way. You can only count on yourself, so work hard."

Ye Fan patted his friend's shoulder and saw him off after these encouraging words.

"Now that you have started the company and helped your friend, are we going

home?"

Qiu Mu-Cheng had unknowingly walked up behind Ye Fan.

She walked over and asked him gently as the moonlight reflected off her mesmerizing eyes.

Qiu Mu-Cheng was dressed in a Korean style dress with a beige plush jacket. Her legs were long and slender, and her perfect figure looked absolutely intoxicating.

She surpassed all else in beauty the moment she appeared.

Ye Fan shook his head and replied, "I still have more things to do handle here and probably can't go back so soon. Why don't I get Lei San to send you back by car tomorrow? Now that the business has expanded, you will be needed in Yunzhou. From now on, your workload is probably going to increase since you are the lovely CEO of a multi-billion dollar company," teased Ye Fan.

Mufan Real Estate had now become

Mufan Group.

Ye Fan wanted to help Qiu Mu-Cheng expand the company.

But he was out of time now.

Operation Ablaze was about to commence, so Ye Fan had to shut himself in and start his martial arts cultivation.

After he was done cultivating, he would pay a visit to the Chu family right away and settle old scores.

Ye Fan had to ensure that the two most important women in his life were taken care of before he left.
