A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 170

"Young Master, since you are setting up a company, why not make it a bigger one?"

"It isn't worth your time to mess around with such a small company."

Han's doubtful voice came drifting in from the other end of the line.

But Ye Fan shook his head and laughed softly.

"This is Mu-Cheng's first time running a company. It is better for her to take small steps at the beginning. If she tries to run before she can walk, she will easily stumble and fall."

"Moreover, it will be a most wonderful experience for her if she can personally transform a small enterprise into a commercial giant."

If Ye Fan wanted to, he could easily give his wife a three-digit billion-yuan enterprise.

But he had chosen not to. Because he knew what his wife really wanted was a stage to exhibit her talent.

Take a professional dancer for example. As long as she has a stage and an opportunity, she can exhibit her peerless dance form before the public. Step by step, she can approach the pinnacle of the art world.

But if Ye Fan had conferred that greatest honor upon Qiu Mu-Cheng right from the get go, then her life would become one without any pleasure.

"Mu-Cheng, I have already set up the stage for you."

"Now, let me see your peerless dance form."

Within the study, as Ye Fan looked at the vast sky outside the window, an expression that was part deep indulgence and part heavy expectation could be seen in his eyes.

It was just like what Ye Fan had said before.

If you want the clouds, I will summon them for you-

If you wish for autumn to come, I will make the leaves fall for you!

For your sake, I can give you the whole world-

"Oh yeah, Han. I told you to investigate Wu He-Rong's background when we spoke last. So have you found out anything yet?"

"He knew about the 'Book of Celestial Cloud.' I did not expect that."

The "Book of Celestial Cloud” was one of the Chu family's most guarded secrets. Even among the Chus, only a few core family members had the chance to come in contact with it.

During the Mount Tai Tournament, Ye Fan had used one single technique from the "Book of Celestial Cloud," and Wu He-Rong had immediately recognized it for what it was. That had come as a surprise to Ye

Fan.

And he had no choice but to suspect that Wu He-Rong was also a member of the Chu family.

"Young Master, I have investigated his background thoroughly."

"Wu He-Rong was the overlord of Jiangdong before Chen Ao. But one day, the empire he had built in Jiangdong was shattered overnight. Strictly speaking, that was all your fault."

Back then, in order to prop up Chen Ao as the ruler of Jiangdong, Ye Fan had secretly ordered Han to collect evidence of Wu He-Rong's criminal activities and hand them over to Chen Ao. Afterward, the current King of Jiangdong had toppled his archrival in one fell swoop.

Looking at things from this angle, Ye Fan had indeed been the person singlehandedly responsible for the fall of Wu He-Rong.

Most probably, none of the leaders in Jiangdong knew that a single mysterious puppeteer had been responsible for the earth-shaking change that had taken place in Jiangdong years ago.

"But this Wu He-Rong was a tough guy. After he fled overseas, he took up mercenary work in order to survive. Back then, he was hiding his identity as he moved about in the western underworld. And he was also involved in the wars that have taken place in the Middle East during the past few years."
