A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 43

"You bastard! One day, you will completely disgrace our family~"

In the dining hall, the Qius continued to hurl abuse at Ye Fan. And Master Qiu was so worked up that his whole body was trembling. As he watched his family's live-in son-in-law make a spectacle of himself, he got so enraged that he nearly choked to death.

Nobody had noticed that, at the moment of Ye Fan's appearance, the Shens' demeanor had turned more respectful. And just then, the Shens were escorting him with eyes that were filled with piety and reverence, as he walked toward the stage.

At that moment, however, the great dining hall of the hotel was filled with the noise of clamor and ridicule.

And two men were walking on the red carpet leading to the stage.

One of them was the most excellent son-in-law of the Qiu family, the husband of the fourth Qiu daughter, Qiu Mu-Ying. He was also the son of Chu Yang, the boss of Yangtian Real Estate. Chu Wen-Fei was someone born with a silver spoon in his mouth.

To Qiu Mu-Ying, her husband was the son of a multi-millionaire. To Wang Qiao-Yu, Chu Wen-Fei was a most excellent son-in-law. And in the eyes of the Qius, he was the Mr. Chu who was so powerful that even the Shens had to toady up to him.

It could be said that, in the Qiu family, Chu Wen-Fei's light was so dazzling that no one else could measure up to him. Even though he had only just become their son-in-law mere days ago, he was already in a pre-eminent position within the family.

Qiu Guang, the eldest Qiu brother, had declared that Chu Wen-Fei was the son every parent hoped for.

The attitude of the Qiu family showed just how much they respected and appreciated Chu Wen-Fei.

If Chu Wen-Fei was the one who brought glory to the Qiu family, then Ye Fan was

their shame.

All the Qius were scolding and ridiculing Ye Fan, as he made his way toward the stage. Wang Qiao-Yu and Qiu Mu-Ying even came up with all sorts of insults to mock him.

They laughed at his humble background, his plain clothes, his misapprehension and his shamelessness.

At that moment, Ye Fan had become the shame of the Qiu family.

But Ye Fan ignored their jeering.

He continued to walk slowly and composedly along the red carpet, giving off the impression of being an unstoppable glacier. As Ye Fan looked forward, his eyes were calm and impenetrable. At that moment, the Qius had no idea just how powerful he was.

"Idiot. He's an idiot."

He's just like a moron!

"How did our family get a son-in-law like him?" Qiu Guang roared in anger.

"You are just a useless piece of trash. A country bumpkin. How dare you compete against my husband?" Qiu Mu-Ying's eyes were filled with ridicule as she looked at Ye Fan.

"Are you worthy?”

"You are overestimating yourself!"

Master Qiu was so worked up that his whole body was trembling with rage. "You bastard! Are you not coming back? Are you trying to shame our family?"

Meanwhile, Qiu Mu-Cheng was so worried that her eyes had turned bloodshot. She was ready to burst into tears. "Ye Fan, why are you doing this? Even though you are not as capable as Chu Wen-Fei, I have never looked down on you. So why are you acting like this?"

A stream of rebukes erupted from the Qiu camp.

By then, Chu Wen-Fei had already noticed Ye Fan. Disdain filled the former's eyes as he said mockingly, "Is this fellow an idiot?"

"You really think you are Mr. Chu?"

"Mr. Shen was calling for me. You are just a low-born piece of trash. And you have no status. How are you going to compete with me?"

Chu Wen-Fei smiled smugly as he looked at Ye Fan in contempt. And then he continued to stride down the carpet in high spirits.

They were both sons-in-law of the Qiu family. And they were both human beings, doing the same things. But what Ye Fan received for his efforts was very different from Chu Wen-Fei's rewards.

Chu Wen-Fei was getting praise, flattery and respect from the Qius.

On the other hand, the Qius were ridiculing, mocking and insulting Ye Fan.

Sometimes, whenever Ye Fan thought about how the Qius were treating him, he could not help but think: why?

But why was he being treated differently from Chu Wen-Fei, even though they were doing the same thing?

Could it be because, compared to Chu Wen-Fei, I am just a commoner of humble birth?

But then, that means you people are just blind fools who cannot recognize me for what I am.

A person's birth or family background mattered little to Ye Fan.
