A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 963 Rush Back in Time

This hotel had a total of ten stories.

The Supreme Suite where Ye Fan was in right now wasn't the most luxurious room of the hotel.

The Emperor Suite on the tenth floor was the most luxurious room this hotel had to offer.

Even someone as rich and powerful as Abe Chuunan had only booked rooms up to the ninth floor for this dinner party and didn't book the tenth story.

It was because the tenth floor was simply too expensive.

The cost of that suite for one night was enough to cover one night of the entire hotel.

But of course, cost was only one problem. The other problem was that Abe Chuunan didn't think anybody he knew was fit to take that room either.

What about Nakai Koichi?

Even though Nakai Koichi had saved his life before, he was still just a bodyguard who had protected him until he became the head of the family.

He respected him and gave him preference purely out of gratitude.

Allowing Nakai Koichi to stay in a room on the ninth story was already more than enough for a bodyguard's status.

But after he found out about what Ye Fan had done and what he was capable of, Abe Chuunan realized that someone worthy to be called the 'emperor' had appeared! This one man could fight a country.

Calling him 'emperor' wasn't even enough.

So just like that, Abe Chuunan and his men respectfully escorted Ye Fan and Chen Nan to the Emperor Suite.

Chen Nan stood in one of the most luxurious suites and looked down at the rest of the city.

She found it hard to sleep.

In the past, even though Ye Fan was the King of Jiangdong, she didn't think that she was too far off from Ye Fan.

After all, she was the daughter of the previous King of Jiangdong, and the only daughter of the almighty Chen Ao of Jianghai. Her family alone surpassed Ye Fan by leaps and bounds.

So from that perspective, Chen Nan felt that she wasn't too far from Ye Fan, and they were actually on par with one another. But tonight, she finally realized how far she really was from this man.

It was like the difference between a firefly's glow and the glow of a full moon in the sky.

Chen Nan knew that if not for Ye Fan, she would never have the chance to be in this room and be above the rest of the people here.

In the past, Chen Nan joked with her father and said that if Ye Fan wasn't already married, she would definitely become Ye Fan's wife, because they were well matched in terms of family background and ability.

At that time, Chen Ao just shook his head and laughed, saying that she was dreaming of the impossible. He even said that if not for Qiu Mu-Cheng's grandmother's birthday party, Ye Fan would never even have met her at all, because the two of them hailed from two different worlds that would never meet.

Back then, Chen Nan wasn't bothered by all this. She just felt that her father had placed Ye Fan on a pedestal and made her way too lowly. But now, she believed what her father said.

"Daddy was right. Fan is like the bright sun in the sky, radiating with authority and makes others look up at him in admiration."

Many thoughts ran through Chen Nan's mind as she felt a greater sense of admiration towards Ye Fan.

But while Chen Nan was still sighing away, Ye Fan was on the bed in the room next door, having a video call with his wife and telling her very inappropriate dirty jokes.

The beautiful woman on the other line was so angry and embarrassed that she started scolding Ye Fan for being shameless.

No matter how formidable one was, he would always reveal his true side to the people he was closest to.

Ye Fan was no different. Even though he was already so reputable and influential, he would still have to kneel on the washing board when he got home because his wife was upset.

"Ye Fan, you horrible man! You said that you'd be back in two or three days, but it's already been two weeks and you're still not back yet! You'd better come clean with me. Are you hiding a mistress out there?" snarled Qiu Mu-Cheng.

"It can't be helped, all men have needs, you know? No matter how beautiful the flowers at home are, if I can only look at it and can't touch it, then I'll have no choice but to pick some wild flowers from outside," said Ye Fan as he crossed his legs.

"How dare you do such a thing! When did I say that I wouldn't allow you to touch me?" roared Qiu Mu-Cheng so angrily that her nose was nearly twisted.

"Oh my, so you're saying that it's okay for me to touch you? Alright then, you wait for me at home and I'll rush home tomorrow. Let's work hard together and make a son together in just one night," teased Ye Fan shamelessly.

Qiu Mu-Cheng's face was all red from embarrassment when she suddenly realized that Ye Fan had purposely trapped her into saying this.

"Who wants to make a son with you? You'd better keep your mouth shut since you simply can't stay serious. You'd better come back within the next three days. It's our mum's birthday in three days' time, so we should go home and celebrate her birthday," snapped Qiu Mu-Cheng.

But Ye Fan was slightly confused. "Birthday? Isn't our mum's birthday in October? Did I remember it wrongly? That can't be. We've celebrated it in October for the past three years now."

Ye Fan had married into the family for three years, so besides remembering his wife's birthday, the other birthday he had to remember was his mother-in-law's.

Han Li's birthday had always been celebrated in late autumn, but now Qiu Mu-Cheng was saying it was in three days' time, so Ye Fan was puzzled.

Qiu Mu-Cheng immediately rolled her eyes. "Are you an idiot? I'm talking about your mother, my mother-in-law. Don't tell me you've even forgotten your own mother's birthday?"

Ye Fan suddenly remembered that his mother's birthday was indeed in May.

Ever since they left the Chu family, Ye Fan did not remember nor celebrate his mother's birthday.

If Qiu Mu-Cheng hadn't reminded him, he wouldn't have remembered this.

"Mu-Cheng, thank you so much. If my mum knew that you wanted to celebrate her birthday, she would be so happy."

Ye Fan was a little touched and rather ashamed of himself at the same time.

He was his mother's son, but her daughter-in-law was more thoughtful.

Ye Fan realized that he hadn't celebrated his mother's birthday in so many years.

"My goodness! You really forgot your own mother's birthday? What sort of son are you! If I were your mother, I'd have died from being too angry. Alright now, you're busy tomorrow, so you'd better rest early tonight. Remember, come back within the next three days! Mum and I will cook and wait for you at home, did you hear me?" said Qiu Mu-Cheng sternly to Ye Fan.

Ye Fan nodded. "I will do that, my dear. Don't worry, I'll get home in time."

It was just enough time. A cruise took about two days to reach China from Japan.

If everything went smoothly, Ye Fan would reach home in just two days.

So he would be in time for his mother's birthday.

This was the first time Qiu Mu-Cheng was going to celebrate his mother's birthday, so as her husband and his mother's son, he had to get back in time to attend the celebration!
