A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 1602

It was time to beat a hasty retreat.

The first thing that came to Li Er's mind when facing danger was to escape.

“Look at you. All you know is running away.”

“What don't you change your name to Runaway Li.”

Lei San was rendered speechless upon hearing Li Er's words.

Li Er was utterly displeased. “What else should we do? We can't let Ms. Qiu die in Yunzhou.”

Lei San shook his head. “At this moment, Mount Yunding is the safest place for her in the whole of Jiangdong. Don't forget that Mr. Chu spent a lot of effort setting up the formation on Mount Yunding. As long as she stays inside the mansion, she will be safe. So the first thing we should tell her now is not asking her to escape but to stay inside the mansion.”

His words made Li Er came to the realization.

“You are right. How did I forget about that? Mr. Chu's formation is the best protection for her. I will contact her now and ask her to return to Mount Yunding Villa right away.” Li Er could not suppress his anxiousness.

However, when he wanted to reach for his phone, he realized they were still hanging by ropes.

“D*mn it, Lei San. Please call for help. Please get us down first...”

While Li Er was interrogated and tortured by Meng Wanyu, Qiu Mucheng was invited to attend an entrepreneurs' annual meeting in Jianghai. She gave a speech on stage as a representative of Jiangdong's outstanding entrepreneurs.

As the leader of Mufan Group and the respectable female icon of Jiangdong, Qiu Mucheng had now become a role model among the young people.

Indeed, reputation and power came hand in hand.

When one reached a certain status, glory and connections would follow.

Qiu Mucheng did not used to enjoy such occasions.

She preferred a quiet place, and she would always try to avoid any formal occasion.

However, after she went through thick and thin with Ye Fan, she became afraid of being alone.

She would rather work overtime or attend social events than be alone in the huge mansion in Mount Yunding.

Whenever she was alone, she would always overthink. She would worry that Ye Fan might be in danger or couldn't take care of himself. Most importantly, she missed him dearly.

She could not call Ye Fan like others as the latter seldom brought his phone with him.

Oh, I miss him so much.

Even if he brought his phone, he would usually turn off the phone. He would even lose it or break it after some time.

A phone was merely a consumable item for a martial artist.

It was more like a burden for someone like Ye Fan, who would often engage in battle.

Hence, Qiu Mucheng could only occupy herself with work whenever she missed Ye Fan.

After giving the speech for around an hour, Qiu Mucheng walked down the stage.

Backstage, Qiu Mucheng took out her phone. She was startled to find that Li Er had called her many times.

“Huh?”

Qiu Mucheng furrowed her brows as she had an ominous premonition.

Without delay, she called Li Er back.

As soon as the call went through, Li Er's angry voice appeared. “Ms. Qiu, you have finally answered the call. What were you doing? I thought you...”

Li Er was overwhelmed with desperation as he failed to reach Qiu Mucheng.

Before Qiu Mucheng could explain, Li Er cut her off again.
