A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 961 Jealousy

Before meeting Ye Fan, Chen Nan had intended to return to Jiangdong after graduation and to help her father with the family business. She was content as life was peaceful and she had enough to get by. Even though Jianghai wasn't a large city and wasn't considered a very developed or wealthy place within China, Chen Nan's family background was enough for her to live very comfortably in Jianghai. But after meeting Ye Fan, Chen Nan realized that she couldn't just let herself continue living like that.

She wanted to become like Ye Fan and pursue a greater world out there.

Otherwise, she was afraid of being left further and further behind by this man.

After everyone had eaten their fill, Abe Chuunan announced the end of the dinner party.

The various guests also left and returned to rest in their hotel rooms.

Ye Fan was tired too, and he had to return to China to next day as well, so he got up and was prepared to leave.

"Mr Chu, are you really not going to reconsider this offer?" asked Nakai Koichi again. He refused to give up.

But of course, Ye Fan wasn't going to agree.

"Please help me to thank the Thai king for his kind intentions. But I'm already used to wandering about by myself and I'm not interested in joining any organization," said Ye Fan as he started walking away with Chen Nan.

"Ye Fan! Brother Fan! Wait for us!" Just as Chen Nan and Ye Fan were about to go back downstairs, Professor An and the other two came running over from where they were waiting earlier.

"Oh my! Bro, you're really amazing! I never knew you were this formidable. I didn't need to worry about you after all! We were really worried about you earlier, especially when those guys whipped out their guns. If Hui didn't stop me, I would have run out to take a bullet for you," said Liang Hao-Nan with an ingratiating laugh as he tried to get friendly with Ye Fan.

"Exactly. We were so worried. But seriously, Nannan. Your boyfriend is secretly so formidable but he tricked us into thinking he was just a country bumpkin. But then again, since you're someone of such high standing, you couldn't possibly fall for some lowly fellow from the countryside, right? I just knew that this brother-in-law of mine was not ordinary," chimed in Kong Hui.

She no longer ignored Ye Fan and even called him her brother-in-law.

"Haha! Nannan's judgment is really unique. All of us were mistaken," Professor An laughed along.

The three of them were so friendly now. Their disdainful and ostracizing attitude from before was nowhere to be found.

But Ye Fan didn't even glance at the three people who had followed after them.

He just walked off with Chen Nan.

"This...this..." The three of them were just left behind after being given the cold shoulder and looked as awkward as could be.

"Damn it! What the hell is this! He actually ignored me?! Who does he think he is? He just had a meal with Mr Abe, that's all!

Does he think Mr Abe really likes him? He's become so arrogant now! No matter how amazing you are, you're still going to stay in the room meant for the staff tonight anyway!" grumbled Kong Hui angrily as she stomped her feet and gnashed her teeth. This was the first time anyone had ignored her like this.

Liang Hao-Nan put an arm around her waist and consoled her, "Alright now, Hui, don't be angry anymore. He's just being smug because of that short moment of glory earlier, so don't stoop to his level. It's better that he's ignored us anyway, then at least I don't have to bother to find someone to give him a proper room now. We'll just let him stay in that lowly staff room." Liang Hao-Nan smiled smugly as well.

But while they were talking, Abe Chuunan had noticed that Ye Fan was actually going to take the elevator downstairs.

"Mr Chu, aren't you going upstairs? Why are you headed downstairs?" asked Abe Chuunan when he realized this.

The higher the room floor, the more expensive it was.

This guest hall was on the fifth floor, and rooms below the fifth floor were all standard rooms.

The rooms above the fifth floor were all premium suites.

Ye Fan replied him, "My room is on the first floor, so of course I'm going downstairs."

What?

"First floor? Aren't those rooms reserved for the staff?!" said Abe Chuunan in shock.

He turned to glare at his assistant.

"What's going on? I told you to arrange for a room and this is your arrangement? Mr Chu is a VIP guest and you sent him to stay in a staff room? Are you tired of living?" roared Abe Chuunan so fiercely that his assistant paled and apologized profusely with fear in his eyes.

Tm...rm really sorry, I...I overlooked this. I'll get Mr Chu a premium room on the sixth floor."

"Sixth floor?" Abe Chuunan glared harder at his assistant. "How is the sixth floor enough? Mr Chu is a VIP! Get him a Supreme Suite on the ninth floor!" "Yes, I'll get it done right now."

The assistant quickly ran off to get things arranged.

Ye Fan turned to follow Abe Chuunan to go upstairs too.

But Chen Nan didn't follow him upstairs. That room was prepared for Ye Fan, so she didn't dare to tag along.

"Nannan, why are you standing there? Come upstairs with me." Since Abe Chuunan had prepared a better room for him, Ye Fan wasn't going to refuse it.

"Huh? Can I...can I go too?" asked Chen Nan with some shock and confusion.

Even a scion like Liang Hao-Nan had been allocated a room on the third floor.

So Chen Nan felt that she was only qualified to stay on the second story at best.

"Miss Chen, you're so funny. You're Mr Chu's woman, so of course you can go wherever Mr Chu goes." Both Nakai Koichi and Abe Chuunan burst out laughing at Chen Nan's reaction. Chen Nan's little face immediately flushed crimson.

She shook her head and tried to explain.

"Enough, Nannan, don't try to refuse them anymore. Just come along." Ye Fan pulled Chen Nan along with him and went

upstairs.

Kong Hui and the rest watched with jealousy in their eyes as Chen Nan left with Ye Fan.

Their own room was only on the third story.

But Ye Fan and Chen Nan actually got one of the best rooms on the ninth floor.

It wasn't just a matter of how luxurious the room was, but the difference in their identity and societal status.

The rooms were a mere six stories apart, but this might be a difference that the three of them would never be able to make up for in their lives.

Kong Hui felt even worse inside when she thought about it this way.

She clenched her fists hard as a jealousy burned through her heart.

"Damn it! How is this Chen Nan so lucky? In school, sons of rich men like Han Shao-

Jie like her, and even Professor An favors her. I thought her boyfriend was nothing but a country bumpkin, but he turns out to be some big shot that even Abe Chuunan treats as a VIP?! We're both women, but why does her life turn out better than mine? Is this Chen Nan the female lead in some novel or something?" Kong Hui gritted her teeth and her eyes were filled with jealousy.
