A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 134

"You are?"

A figure stepped out of the suddenly opened door.

The person was armed with a mop and wearing a faded army green short-sleeves shirt. On his feet were a pair of army walking shoes. He was unshaven and his hair was a shaggy mess that resembled a bird's nest. Overall, he looked a little slovenly.

He blinked and looked doubtfully at the two exquisitely dressed beauties in front of him. And then he slowly queried them about their visit.

Su Qian was instantly stunned, when she saw the middle-aged man standing before her. It was as if she was struck by a bolt of lightning. She could even feel her heart shattering into tiny pieces.

She had not expected her idol to turn out to be an unshaven and slovenly middle-aged man. At this moment, she was overwhelmed by the enormous gap between her dream and reality. Her eyes reddened and she felt like bursting into tears.

Qiu Mu-Cheng was rendered speechless when she saw Su Qian's odd reaction.

She wondered if her silly friend was actually mistaking the middle-aged janitor to be the owner of this villa.

In the end, Qiu Mu-Cheng stepped forward and asked politely: "Mister, may I know if the former owner is in the house?"

"The owner?" The middle-aged man was taken aback for a moment. And then his face split into a smile. "Oh, you are talking about the young man who was staying here. He has already left. Probably moved to a new place. All his things are gone. I was told to come here and do some cleaning. They want to continue to rent this place out."

What?

"My idol has already left?'

"How come?"

"Where did he go?"

When Su Qian heard the news of her idol's departure, the tiny spark of hope that had arisen in her was immediately extinguished.

It was unexpected, but the worst-case scenario had happened.

In the end, that man had left this place.

She had never even seen what he looked like.

A romance had ended before it even had the chance to begin.

They had separated, never to see each other again, before she could confess her feelings to him.

At this moment, both Qiu Mu-Cheng and Su Qian had already returned to the latter's house.

Half an hour ago, Qiu Mu-Cheng had been the only depressed person in this room. But now, another heartbroken girl was keeping her company.

In all these years, this was the first time Su Qian had loved someone so much, the first time she had written ninety-nine love letters and the first time she had plucked up the courage to go to a man's house in the middle of the night to confess her feelings.

But all these first times did not yield any results.

The flower had wilted before it could bloom.

The two BFFs shared such a close relationship; they even had their hearts broken at the same time.

But they probably did not know that they were grieving over the same person.

And the two beautiful maidens wallowed in depression for a long while.

In the end, Su Qian was the first one to perk up. "Hmph, so what if I just fell out of love? It is not a big deal. It doesn't mean I can't ever get married."

"Mu-Cheng, we are modern-day women, so we can't keep on feeling depressed. We have to pull ourselves together. Nobody is so important that the world will stop spinning without him."

"I have made up my mind. Let us go on a trip tomorrow."

"Change our surroundings and change our moods as well."

"And when we come back, we will start our new lives as brand new people!"

And so, Qiu Mu-Cheng jumped onto the idea after some egging on from Su Qian. She was prepared to go along with her BFF on this sightseeing trip. Both of them needed to relieve the pain in their hearts.

It was just the right time to go on such a trip anyway. In Qiu Mu-Cheng's current state of mind, she was not in the mood to do any work anyway.
