A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)

Chapter 200 I Got Lucky Because of My Best Friend

"No wonder! I was just wondering why someone like Young Master Shen would humble himself and be

friends with you, and even give you such a present. So THAT was the reason. If you didn't explain it, I

would have thought you were some big shot in disguise.”

After Su Qian heard Ye Fan's explanation, all the questions in her head were answered and she

immediately shook her head and chuckled.

She just knew that this country bumpkin lacked the prestige for Young Master Shen to treat him in that

manner.

So this was why.

"But Mu-Cheng, it looks like this country bumpkin live-in husband isn't entirely useless. At least he's

strong and thick-skinned enough to help you ward off blows in times of need."

Although Ye Fan didn't explain how he saved Shen Fei, Su Qian guessed it must have been just like

some gangster type of movie where some unknown henchman helps to block off knife attacks or

bullets for his big boss and rises through the ranks as a result.

Of course, they died horrible deaths without any exception!

So Su Qian instinctively thought Ye Fan did something similar too.

In Su Qian's eyes, Ye Fan was nothing but a pauper from a village after all. Other than brute strength,

there was no other way he could have helped an heir of a rich family like Shen Fei.

"But as the saying goes, there aren't any free lunches in the world. The more favors you accept, the

heavier their price. Do you think Young Master Shen's 'Mr Ye' comes by that easily? When it comes to

the crunch, it will get tough," Su Qian reminded Ye Fan as she looked at him with disdain and sneered.

Her tone of voice was filled with inexplicable contempt and sarcasm.

"Thanks Miss Su, but you don't have to worry about me," Ye Fan naturally thought nothing of Su Qian's

words and was too lazy to explain himself.

Since no matter what he said, he was still that poor and useless bum from the village and the live-in

son-in-law with no backbone in Su Qian's eyes. He wasn't worthy of her BFF, Qiu Mu-Cheng at all.

"How can you still laugh? Qianqian's words are a little harsh, but she's right. Don't ask Young Master

Shen for any help or accept any of his favors from now on. Understand?" ordered Qiu Mu-Cheng

coldly.

Qiu Mu-Cheng was equally concerned about the things Su Qian mentioned.

Qiu Mu-Cheng couldn't help feeling worried even though Ye Fan couldn't be bothered.

She was concerned that Ye Fan would be harmed by people from powerful families like Shen Fei in the

end.

"Mu-Cheng, it'll be fine. Your hubby is no fool, so don't worry. I know what I'm doing," consoled Ye Fan.

"Shut up! Do you really think you are Mu-Cheng's husband?! Have you no shame?! How can a poor

peasant like you have the cheek to call yourself Mu-Cheng's hubby? Even if you don't find it

embarrassing, Mu-Cheng and I do!”

When Su Qian heard Ye Fan surprisingly address himself as Qiu Mu-Cheng's husband, an inexplicable

fury surged in her heart.

It made her feel as though she had just suffered some major humiliation.

"Ye Fan, I hope you will remember your place. Your marriage to Mu-Cheng was a mistake to begin

with, and Mu-Cheng only stayed married to you because of her grandfather. But things are different

now. Mu-Cheng has left the Qius and doesn't have to listen to them anymore. She can choose how to

lead her life now. So in a few days, Mu-Cheng will divorce you and find a better man to take care of

her,” said Su Qian to Ye Fan coldly. She said it so stiffly that it sounded like an ultimatum for Ye Fan.

"Qianqian, that's enough. Don't go too far,” Qiu Mu-Cheng felt Su Qian's words were too hurtful, so she

immediately told her that it was enough.

"Damn, Mu-Cheng. Why should I stop? You're just too kind. This country bumpkin keeps clinging onto

you because he knows that. If you continue to be kind, you're going to suffer sooner or later," said Su

Qian to Qiu Mu-Cheng with a disappointed tone as she instantly felt angry.

"Oh, Qianqian, there you are!" a voice suddenly called for Su Qian while Qiu Mu-Cheng and Su Qian

were talking.

Very quickly, a group of men came walking towards them.

The group was led by one older man and one younger man. They were both clad in suits and ties and

appeared particularly formal.

They were more like father and son rather than just an older and younger man.

The father appeared slightly older, and the demeanor of being someone of power for a long time

emanated from his resolute face. Although it was incomparable to that of Li Er and Shen Jiu-Yi's, it

surpassed Qiu Luo and his brothers. He was clearly no ordinary person.

His son was at the prime of his life and appeared capable and steady.

"Dad? Nan?"

When Su Qian saw them, she was instantly delighted. She hurried over as she beamed at them.

"Do you still know that I'm your Dad? When I asked for your ticket at the door, you pretended not to

know me. Are you still my little girl, or can I no longer discipline you?" reprimanded Su Yuan-Shan a

little sullenly at his wilful and arrogant daughter.

At the thought of that, Su Yuan-Shan seethed with anger.

It was tiring for him to queue for long outside the door at his old age. When Su Yuan-Shan found out

his daughter had a coveted VIP ticket for the auction tonight, he wanted to take advantage of it and get

her to trade tickets.

But he didn't expect the girl to refuse to exchange it and even pretended not to know him.

"If I weren't relatively healthy, I would die sooner or later from getting angry with a lousy daughter like

you," Su Yuan-Shan scolded Su Qian.

Of course, Su Qian knew her father wasn't truly mad at her, so she hugged his arm as she stuck out

her tongue and acted cutely.

Su Qian's older brother, Su Nan, was always protective of this little sister of his, so he helped to defend

her, "Dad, don't you always complain about Qianqian living off the family? And how she runs to us for

help with every little thing and isn't independent? Now that Qianqian got the tickets on her own, you

should be happy. Why are you angry with her instead?" said Su Nan as he smiled.

Su Qian chimed in quickly when she realized her brother was helping her, "See, Dad? Just look at how

understanding Nan is.”

"That's enough, you two. You always gang up to make me angry," sighed Su Yuan-Shan helplessly.

Then he asked Su Qian, "Qianqian, I haven't asked you yet. How did you get your hands on the VIP

ticket?"Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

"As far as I know, the organizer has a fixed list of important people that they save such tickets for.

There are only 99 tickets in the entire Jiangdong, so it's not something you can simply buy with money."

"How could a little lass like you have one?" Su Yuan-Shan was filled with curiosity while Su Nan looked

at his little sister quizzically as well.

When Su Qian heard, she proudly tilted her chin up immediately and said smugly, "Hoho! Dad, just

because you can't get the tickets, doesn't mean your daughter can't either."

It can't be helped, I'm so popular! I got lucky with this ticket because my best friend gave it to me."

"Hmm, your best friend?" Su Yuan-Shan and Su Nan were slightly surprised. Since they were busy

working all the time, they were genuinely unaware of Su Qian's social circle.

"Yup, my best friend, Qiu Mu-Cheng," said Su Qian as she quickly pushed Qiu Mu-Cheng in front of her

father and brother.

"Dad and Nan, this beauty is the best friend I was talking about," chuckled Su Qian while she

introduced Su Yuan-Shan.

"How do you do, Mr Su?" greeted Qiu Mu-Cheng politely with a smile.

At the sight of this young lady who was a similar age to Su Qian, even Su Yuan-Shan and Su Nan

could not help feeling a little awestruck.

In terms of looks, this young woman was surprisingly on par with Su Qian.
