A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 156

In the face of Su Qian's rebuke, Qiu Mu-Cheng remained quiet and allowed her friend free reign.

Indeed, just like what her friend had said, it was possible to find a hundred, or a thousand, reasons to convince her that Ye Fan was not Mr. Chu.

After all, the two of them were too different.

One of them had been born to a poor family in the countryside and was the live-in son-in-law of the Qiu family. While the other was peerlessly majestic and renowned throughout Jiangdong.

The difference between them was like the difference between a beggar and an emperor. If she had not seen Mr. Chu with her own eyes, Qiu Mu-Cheng would not even dare think about it.

But, last night, she had been very sure that Mr. Chu was her husband the moment she saw his back view.

Although they had never shared a bed together or even a kiss but, still, they had spent the last three years together. So Ye Fan's figure had been firmly etched into her memory.

They look too alike!

If it were not for the fact that she had never seen Ye Fan wear those clothes, she would have been almost a hundred percent sure that Mr. Chu was Ye Fan.

But now, she only had one reason why she believed that Mr. Chu was Ye Fan. Her feeling was telling her so.

However, this reason was too weak to convince herself, let alone others.

Therefore Qiu Mu-Cheng did not refute Su Qian's suspicions; she had nothing to refute her with anyway.

"Damn!"

"Mu-Cheng, don't tell me you actually think that Mr. Chu is Ye Fan?" "I have to hand it to you.' "If you really do not believe me, why don't you just give your husband a call?”

"Ask him if he is in Yunzhou or Anning County?” Su Qian challenged. She was flabbergasted by her friend's naivety.

Qiu Mu-Cheng hesitated for a long moment. Perhaps she really did have it in mind to pick up her phone and give Ye Fan a call to prove her feelings right.

But for a long while after she had found Ye Fan's number, she could not muster up the courage to make the call.

If it turned out that she had really been overthinking things, then things would still be fine. They could still continue to live like they had been.

But if Ye Fan turned out to be Mr. Chu, then how was she supposed to face him?

At that time, her life with Ye Fan would be turned upside down.

Perhaps she might not even be able to find the courage to talk to him.

All of a sudden, Qiu Mu-Cheng started to hesitate.

"Ah! Damn it!"

"What are you hesitating for? Quick, call him."

Su Qian was almost rendered speechless. She had not imagined that a decisive and wise woman like Qiu Mu-Cheng would become such an irresolute and mawkish girl after her marriage to Ye Fan.

Finally, Su Qian got so angry that she snatched away her friend's phone and made the call on the latter's behalf.

Soon, the call connected. / Soon, someone's voice drifted through from the other end of the line.

"Sorry, the number you have dialled is busy. Please try again later!”

Shit!

Su Qian let out a string of expletives. She had not expected that Ye Fan would be using his phone at this time.

"Ye Fan, you piece of trash! Where did you go?”

"Are you trying to starve us to death?"

"Come back right now and make us some food!"

"What a piece of trash."

"Now, you can't even cook. Does our family have any more reason to keep you around?"

Han Li's shrill scolding voice could be heard coming from the phone.

Ye Fan had usually been the one responsible for cooking meals and household chores. But for the past few days, he had not been around and Qiu Mu-Cheng had taken over the tasks.

Han Li and her husband, on the other hand, had not bothered to help out around the

house at all.

According to Han Li, since she had already fulfilled her duty by raising her daughter to adulthood, it was only right for the younger generation to repay her kindness now. So, both Han Li and her husband had no qualms about letting Ye Fan (and Qiu Mu-Cheng) take care of them.
