A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 1049

"Did you ask her for her name?" asked Ye Fan again.

Ye Xi-Mei nodded. "I asked her, but she didn't want to tell me. But before leaving, she asked me to pass you a message."

"What message?" Ye Fan was puzzled.

"She said that you two agreed on something in ten days' time, but she won't turn up, so you don't have to wait for her," replied Ye Xi-Mei.

Ye Fan's confused expression immediately relaxed.

He snorted, "So it's her."

Even though she hadn't left her name, Ye Fan already knew who it was because of this message.

This girl was definitely Yu Yun, the girl who with him in the old Chu family home when he was recuperating from his injuries.

But he didn't think that she would appear here and happen to save his mother.

Was it a coincidence?

Or had she been watching him silently all this time?

Only Yu Yun would know if it was purely a coincidence or not.

"What are you laughing about?! You'd better come clean with me right now. How are the two of you related? I'm warning you, if you have a woman besides Mu-Cheng out there, I'm going to be the first one to beat you up."

"Do you know how much Mu-Cheng has suffered because of you during this time? She looks like her soul has left her and she's in a daze every day. She cooks an entire table of dishes for you every night hoping that you would come home to eat with her. Mu-Cheng is a wonderful girl and she's so devoted to you, so you must not let her down."

"As for the young lady who rescued us... even though we are indebted to her, you can repay her in any way except by giving yourself to her. You hear me? Besides, that young lady is so beautiful and classy, I'm very sure she's from a rich and powerful family. You can't possibly handle a woman like that, and you're certainly not good enough for her."

Ye Fan was speechless. He couldn't believe what he just heard.

Was she really his biological mother?

How could she despise her own son like this?

His mother even felt that he wasn't good enough for that woman.

Ye Fan didn't think that madwoman was any better than him.

He nearly fainted in anger by what his own mother just said.

But Ye Fan had more urgent things to attend to, so he couldn't be bothered to argue with his mother about such matters now.

"Mum, don't worry, I have nothing to do with her. That madwoman probably can't wait to kill me. Alright now, I have to make a move first. Remember, bring Lei to the doctor in the morning. It's better to check if she's broken her head or something," said Ye Fan as he started walking out.

Xu Lei was immediately annoyed to hear this. "Humph! You're the one with a broken head! You're really awful! All you do all day is to tease me!"

Xu Lei stomped her feet and glared at Ye Fan as he walked out while grumbling about him unhappily.

But her grumbling eventually turned to laughter.

She felt like they had gone back to the time when they were both children.

Back then, Ye Fan had always teased her like this.

The smile on Xu Lei's face became more and more beautiful.

She looked like a lotus blooming under the moonlight, and her smile made her look as gorgeous as a flower.

Her captivating smile was so enthralling and mesmerizing.

Ye Jian and Jiang Yu-Lang were both swept away by her beauty. They couldn't take their eyes off her.

They were both attracted to her and envious of Ye Fan at the same time.

Ye Ya was so annoyed that he kicked his own son in the butt.

Ye Jian was unceremoniously snapped out of his daze and barked back angrily, "Dad, why did you kick me?”

"I'm going to make sure you wake up and learn! Look at how your cousin picks up girls and the sort of girls he gets, then look at yourself! You're useless!" Ye Ya ranted away at his unpromising son.

By this time, Ye Fan had already gotten into a car and drove out from Jingzhou. He was headed back to Yunzhou.

Of course, before leaving, Ye Fan also took care of Wei Wu-Ya's corpse along the way.

After all, Fenghua Group's chairman was going to hold a feast for the powerful in Haiyuan Restaurant today. He had invited every important and powerful person of Jiangdong to this banquet so that he could officially announce his status as the King of Jiangdong.

Tonight's banquet was very much like a coronation ceremony, so the boss of this restaurant didn't dare to slack off at all.

Moreover, Fenghua Group was now at the center of attention. They had just destroyed every single faction that belonged to Mr Chu and took over Jiangdong so aggressively. Who would dare to offend them?

The boss of Haiyuan Restaurant was terrified, so he was even more careful to make sure that everything went right today. He was so scared that Lu Ming-Feng and the rest might be unhappy with him.

As the sky brightened, the number of people within Haiyuan Restaurant had increased.

A few hundred bodyguards came in to take over the security duties of the restaurant.

They even pulled police tape around the place.

No unauthorized persons were allowed within this 100 meter boundary around the restaurant.

But people were always attracted to the things they were not allowed to do. The longer the police tape was and the bigger the area that was cordoned off became, the more attention people paid to this place.

The road was soon filled with lots of people who had just come to be nothing but a busybody.

"My gosh! What a huge setup!”

"The last time there was anything as grand as this was when Mr Chu hosted the Feast of the Sea and Sky. What's going on this time?"

"Who's having a banquet here today?"

The passersby were all discussing this matter among themselves.

But there were a few people in the crowd who just watched the proceedings with a look of arrogance and spoke with much

disdain in their voices.

"Tsk, these useless countryside lice have no idea that there's a new king conning up in Jiangdong," said Qiu Mu-Ying with a laugh. Her voice was clearly gleeful at someone else's misfortune.

Qiu Mu-Qi was smiling next to her with a cold look in his eyes as well. His handsome face looked rather smug and conceited.
