A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 184

Without Han Hai and the rest, Qiu Mu-Cheng's family had gone back to the way it used to be. Only Han Li would start whining about how the manager at Haiyuan Restaurant had tricked them that night.

"So much for being the general manager of Haiyuan Restaurant. In order to sell off that bottle of wine, he pretended to know Yu-Hao and even brought food and wine over so politely. What a ruse! He actually managed to cheat nearly $700,000 out of us."

"I don't think that's some high class restaurant at all. It's just a place that cheats their customers of their money!"

Han Li was still aggrieved by what happened that night at Haiyuan Restaurant. She couldn't believe that they had been played out like that. The manager said he was giving the wine away but forced them to pay for it. She had just smashed one tiny teacup and he charged her so much for it. They had a prior agreement to charge them less and that turned out to be a lie as well. The worst part was, the restaurant refused to let them go even though they promised to send the money the next day, and the four of them had to stay overnight in the restaurant.

Han Li had never been so embarrassed in her entire life.

"What do you think Yu-Hao will think after paying so much for dinner? Do you think he would see us as people who don't know our limits and have a bad impression of us?" Han Li was getting worried during dinnertime.

Qiu Lei consoled her, "It's going to be just fine. $700,000 is a lot of money to us, but Yu-Hao is so rich and this tiny amount isn't going to affect his impression of us..."

The two of them consoled themselves like this because they were just afraid of losing this potential wealthy son-in-law.

Qiu Mu-Cheng was speechless when she heard what her parents said. She just pretended not to have heard them and couldn't be bothered to interrupt them

either.

Ye Fan also ate quietly but he was feeling very amused inside.

He didn't expect the general manager of the restaurant to be so vicious either. Peng Zhen-Ying had actually billed Sun Yu-Hao so much just because he wasn't around and even detained the four of them for not being able to pay up.

"That Sun Yu-Hao must be feeling terribly embarrassed too, I suppose," thought Ye Fan to himself gleefully.

But even though things had turned out like that, it was clear that Han Li and the rest still didn't understand what happened to them that night.

They just thought that Peng Zhen-Ying had tricked them by pretending to know Sun Yu-Hao and giving them wine on that pretext. Then after they had finished the wine, he suddenly turned on them and forced them to pay up.

"What a scheme! We're such intelligent and sharp people but we actually fell for this," sighed Qiu Lei. He just felt that city folk were really too good at such schemes.

Ye Fan just listened to them and smiled with talking.

Qiu Mu-Cheng spotted Ye Fan's smirk and glared at him as she hissed quietly, "Wipe that silly smile off! Finish your food and go with me to the mall later."

"Yes, dear!" Ye Fan replied instantly.

The Mid-Autumn Festival was coming soon, so Qiu Mu-Cheng had to buy some things for the family.

Qiu Mu-Cheng's BFF, Su Qian, had just called half an hour ago to ask Qiu Mu-Cheng to go shopping with her, and even specially asked Qiu Mu-Cheng to bring Ye Fan along.

Of course Ye Fan knew that Su Qian hadn't called him along because she fancied him. He knew that she wanted him around only to help them to carry things.

But he didn't make a fuss about it and agreed to tag along.

There was nothing wrong in getting a husband to carry things for his wife anyway.

Ye Fan was more than happy to do this.

After they were done with dinner, Su Qian drove to their place and picked up Qiu Mu-Cheng and Ye Fan.

It was nearly time for the Mid-Autumn Festival.

All the shopping malls were filled with festivities.
