A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 1719

“Haha!

“You mean you?

“You already have one foot in the grave, yet you're still thinking about marrying into her family and living with her?

“Which girl is that blind to set her eyes upon an old man like you?”

Owen and the rest mocked Gaius for his shameless remark.

Gaius glared back at them and refuted, “You're looking down on me?

“Let me tell you guys something. I haven't lost my touch. Some girls like older men. Besides, I'm not that old. I'm just fifty-six years old. As a supreme grandmaster, it's common for us to live up to a century or two. If the same conversion applies to a commoner, I'm merely thirty years old, still in my prime,” Gaius answered confidently.

His comment triggered another round of laughter among the group.

And so, chatter, laughter, and toasts continued to be exchanged. The atmosphere was cozy and warm.

Meanwhile, numerous bright shining stars dotted the sky thousands of miles away.

Every passenger on the plane had already fallen asleep.

Only Angie couldn't sleep at the thought of getting closer to Ye Fan by the minute. She could feel her cheeks burning.

“I wonder what Ye Fan would think when he saw me. That's right! What should I wear to meet him? I remember he likes pure and gentle types of girls. I'll have to go shopping for clothes when I arrive in China. Should I prepare a gift for his mother? He is such a filial son. All of the effort he had put in and all the adversities he had overcome was to get justice for his mother.”

Angie didn't understand why Ye Fan kept popping up in her mind.

But aren't all young girls in love this passionate? Disregarding the consequence and the false values the society imposed, the love I have for him is pure and immaculate.Oh right!

Remembering her gift, Angie reached for her bag and rummaged through it.

Finally, an old yet beautifully-crafted wooden rabbit appeared in her hand.

There were some words engraved in tiny fonts on the wooden rabbit: From Ye Fan!

That's right. This was a gift from Cha Tianfan when he was younger. Other than my family and Meng Wanyu, Ye Fan was the only person who had ever given me a gift. Moreover, the gift was personally crafted by him.Maybe he had forgotten all about it. But I have it engraved in my memory. It was a precious memory of mine. Ten years. No, it has been more than that, and I still treasure it. This time, I brought the rabbit along to meet with Ye Fan for one last time.

“He had been lying to me. Hmph! He had known me since young but was keeping that away from me!”

Angie pouted with resentment at that thought.

I would still be kept in the dark if he hadn 't revealed his real name and identity back in Mount Chumen.

Gradually, Angie felt drowsiness pulling at her.

Her eyelids were drooping. She was struggling to keep them open.

Her vision started to blur too.

When she was about to fall asleep, suddenly a loud rumble came from outside the plane.

Boom!

Then, the entire plane started to shake violently.

Orange and red warning lights were blinking furiously. A blaring siren sounded, indicating the urgency of the situation.

“What's wrong?”

“What's happening?”

“Oh God!”

“What's going on?”

“Oh my god!”

“Has an accident happened?”

Every passenger was jolted awake from the alarming noise and the shock.

They screamed as fear gripped them. The entire interior of the plane was a mess.

Angie's beautiful face paled with fear and anxiety. She held the rabbit given by Ye Fan tightly in her hand as though it was a lifeline that could keep her safe at that precarious moment.

Boom!

Soon, another thunderous sound pierced through the sky.

And this time, the plane shook harder than the first.

Thick smoke was coming out of the nose of the plane.
