A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 200

"No wonder! I was just wondering why someone like Young Master Shen would humble himself and be friends with you, and even give you such a present. So THAT was the reason. If you didn't explain it, I would have thought you were some big shot in disguise.”

After Su Qian heard Ye Fan's explanation, all the questions in her head were answered and she immediately shook her head and chuckled.

She just knew that this country bumpkin lacked the prestige for Young Master Shen to treat him in that manner.

So this was why.

"But Mu-Cheng, it looks like this country bumpkin live-in husband isn't entirely useless. At least he's strong and thick-skinned enough to help you ward off blows in times of need."

Although Ye Fan didn't explain how he saved Shen Fei, Su Qian guessed it must have been just like some gangster type of movie where some unknown henchman helps to block off knife attacks or bullets for his big boss and rises through the ranks as a result.

Of course, they died horrible deaths without any exception!

So Su Qian instinctively thought Ye Fan did something similar too.

In Su Qian's eyes, Ye Fan was nothing but a pauper from a village after all. Other than brute strength, there was no other way he could have helped an heir of a rich family like Shen Fei.

"But as the saying goes, there aren't any free lunches in the world. The more favors you accept, the heavier their price. Do you think Young Master Shen's 'Mr Ye' comes by that easily? When it comes to the crunch, it will get tough," Su Qian reminded Ye Fan as she looked at him with disdain and sneered. Her tone of voice was filled with inexplicable contempt and sarcasm.

"Thanks Miss Su, but you don't have to worry about me," Ye Fan naturally thought nothing of Su Qian's words and was too lazy to explain himself.

Since no matter what he said, he was still that poor and useless bum from the village and the live-in son-in-law with no backbone in Su Qian's eyes. He wasn't worthy of her BFF, Qiu Mu-Cheng at all.

"How can you still laugh? Qianqian's words are a little harsh, but she's right. Don't ask Young Master Shen for any help or accept any of his favors from now on. Understand?" ordered Qiu Mu-Cheng coldly.

Qiu Mu-Cheng was equally concerned about the things Su Qian mentioned.

Qiu Mu-Cheng couldn't help feeling worried even though Ye Fan couldn't be bothered.

She was concerned that Ye Fan would be harmed by people from powerful families like Shen Fei in the end.

"Mu-Cheng, it'll be fine. Your hubby is no fool, so don't worry. I know what I'm doing," consoled Ye Fan.

"Shut up! Do you really think you are Mu-Cheng's husband?! Have you no shame?! How can a poor peasant like you have the cheek to call yourself Mu-Cheng's hubby? Even if you don't find it embarrassing, Mu-Cheng and I do!”

When Su Qian heard Ye Fan surprisingly address himself as Qiu Mu-Cheng's husband, an inexplicable fury surged in her heart.

It made her feel as though she had just suffered some major humiliation.

"Ye Fan, I hope you will remember your place. Your marriage to Mu-Cheng was a mistake to begin with, and Mu-Cheng only stayed married to you because of her grandfather. But things are different now. Mu-Cheng has left the Qius and doesn't have to listen to them anymore. She can choose how to lead her life now. So in a few days, Mu-Cheng will divorce you and find a better man to take care of her,” said Su Qian to Ye Fan coldly. She said it so stiffly that it sounded like an ultimatum for Ye Fan.

"Qianqian, that's enough. Don't go too far,” Qiu Mu-Cheng felt Su Qian's words were too hurtful, so she immediately told her that it was enough.

"Damn, Mu-Cheng. Why should I stop? You're just too kind. This country bumpkin keeps clinging onto you because he knows that. If you continue to be kind, you're going to suffer sooner or later," said Su Qian to Qiu Mu-Cheng with a disappointed tone as she instantly felt angry.

"Oh, Qianqian, there you are!" a voice suddenly called for Su Qian while Qiu Mu-Cheng and Su Qian were talking.

Very quickly, a group of men came walking towards them.
