A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 179

When Qiu Mu-Cheng saw that everyone was attacking Ye Fan, she quickly cut in and said, "Fei-Fei, if you continue being so rude, I will get angry.”

"No matter how bad Ye Fan is, it's not your place to say anything about him.”

Han Fei-Fei was upset that Qiu Mu-Cheng was angry with her again. "But Mu-Cheng, why are you only fierce to me and not to him?"

"We didn't even say anything to him but he insisted on cutting in. We were all having a good chat with Yu-Hao but he interrupted us and was even so rude to Yu-Hao. Isn't it right of us to scold him for doing such a thing? Yu-Hao is our guest but he ended up getting so angry because of that country bumpkin!" Han Fei-Fei retorted.

Qiu Mu-Cheng glared at Ye Fan and was clearly blaming him. She was blaming him for giving her trouble.

She knew that Ye Fan and Sun Yu-Hao didn't see eye to eye, especially after their dispute in Jianghai.

But her family was around today, so he should have held himself back even in a conflict. Wasn't this making it difficult for her?

But Qiu Mu-Cheng didn't chide Ye Fan in public and was going to teach him a lesson only after they got home.

As a woman, she felt that she had to respect her husband's pride in front of others.

"Young Master Sun, I'm sorry about it. He's always so straight talking like this, but he doesn't mean any harm, so please don't be angry,” Qiu Mu-Cheng ended up apologizing on Ye Fan's behalf.

Sun Yu-Hao was a guest after all. If things became ugly, it would be hard for her to be accountable to her uncle too.

"Forget it. Since Mu-Cheng has pleaded on his behalf, then I won't bother myself with someone of his level. But Ye Fan, let me remind you about one thing. It's important to know who you are and where you stand in this world. Otherwise, you might offend someone else next time and not just get yourself into trouble, but you might also drag Mu-Cheng down with you. That would be terrible," said Sun Yu-Hao coldly. His arrogant voice was filled with disdain.

"Yu-Hao, you're so magnanimous! Come come, let's just focus on eating the good food! Why bother ourselves with that useless fellow?" Han Li motioned to everyone to continue eating. After some time, she noticed that there wasn't enough food, so she called a waiter over.

Peng Zhen-Ying had kept an eye on this table all this time. Since there was now a chance to get close to Ye Fan, he wasn't giving up this opportunity.

"Manager, what specialties does your restaurant serve?" asked Han Li.

"The last few pages are all our specialties. We have Kobe beef from Japan, premium steaks supplied by Michelin, and there's also those that we've specially picked from free range farms in Europe..." Peng Zhen-Ying couldn't stop recommending the dishes to Han Li.

"My goodness, such high class stuff! If that's the case, then give us one of everything on this page.” Han Li had never eaten such an expensive meal before, so she was going to make sure she ate her fill. Her new son-in-law was going to pay anyway.

"Mum, why did you order so much? We can't finish so much. You could just order a few side dishes,” Qiu Mu-Cheng tried to advise her mother otherwise. She was worried that the final bill would be too expensive.

Sun Yu-Hao smiled, "Mu-Cheng, since our mother wants to eat, then let her be. It's alright."

"Look at this daughter of mine, even my son-in-law is more filial than she is! Manager, just go according to what I said, one of everything on this page. Also, since Mr Sun is here, how could you just give us one bottle? You've got to at least give us two bottles. Good things come in pairs!”

"This...well..." Peng Zhen-Ying hesitated for a while and finally clenched his teeth as he decided to just give it his all. "You're right. Since Young Sir has graced our restaurant with his presence, then one bottle of wine isn't enough. I still have another bottle that I've kept for ten years now, so I'll bring it out in a minute."

Peng Zhen-Ying's eyes remained on Ye Fan to tell Ye Fan that he was bringing the wine because of him and hoped that Ye Fan would remember him for this, otherwise he would have given away his best wine for nothing.

"Also, Manager, since we've ordered so much and Mr Sun has actually come to your restaurant, then even if you don't write our bill off, you should give us 50% or 70% off the bill. That's alright with you, isn't it?" Han Li was obviously ripping Peng Zhen-Ying off and happily taking advantage of him.
