A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 54

Jianghai.

After Sun Yu-Hao's departure, Ye Fan did not hurry to look for Qiu Mu-Cheng.

Instead, he turned around and looked behind him. The sanitation workers had just finished collecting the rubbish and were driving away in their truck. A man carrying a briefcase was hollering into his phone and, under a streetlamp, a pair of lovebirds were kissing each other frantically. Meanwhile, under the towering skyscrapers, vehicles continued to stream along the road. The night was as tranquil as still water. Everything was normal but, at the same time, it wasn't.

Ye Fan frowned.

Just then, Ye Fan's phone rang. The caller was Han. "Young Master, it seems your whereabouts have been discovered. Somebody in the family is taking action against you."

Ye Fan nodded and smiled lightly, "I didn't expect them to come so soon."

"Young Master, how about I send Tong Shan over to protect you? I fear for your safety,” Han said worriedly.

But Ye Fan's reply was an indifferent smile. "There's no need. They did not succeed in eliminating me ten years ago, and they will not succeed now. They have come at just the right time. I have not seen blood for many years."

Ye Fan's eyes glinted coldly. Immediately, he made a turn and went into a bar.

"Here you are."

"Have a seat. I have waited for half an hour already."

But, unexpectedly, the moment Ye Fan walked into the bar, he heard the icy voice of a woman coming from beside him.

She was a heavily made-up woman with long hair, and could be considered beautiful. And the black silk stockings she was wearing helped to accentuate the length of her porcelain legs.

Ye Fan did not stand on ceremony. If someone was willing to offer him hospitality, he would take advantage of it.

"My time is limited, so I won't beat around the bush. Let's get straight to business."

"If it weren't for my uncle, I would not even be here today, let alone have this meeting with you." The long-haired beauty spoke in an icy tone of voice, that carried an air of superiority. As if she was doing Ye Fan a huge favor, just by sitting in front of him.

"But since I am here, I will be frank with you."

"First of all, my future husband must have graduated from a renowned school and be successful in his career. His annual salary must be at least half a million. His parents must have at least high school level education. Both of them must be employed, ideally in an enterprise or institution."

"Secondly, you must own property in Jianghai's city center. It must be paid for in full and my name must be on the deed."

"Also, you must own a luxury car that is worth at least half a million. After our marriage, you must buy me a car of the same value.”

"Finally, I intend to go out often with my male friends. You are not to interfere with that. Even when I get married, I will be no one's accessory."

"Do you have all these? Are you able to grant my requests?" The long-haired woman looked coldly at Ye Fan, her face filled with disgust and ridicule.

Ye Fan kept quiet and continued to drink his tea.

"Why aren't you saying anything?" The long-haired woman laughed mockingly and then continued, "Since you are not saying anything, I will do it for you."

"You only have an associate degree and you were born in the countryside. Right now, you are working at some lousy company that only pays you four thousand and five hundred per month. Your parents are farmers. Even if you sell everything you own, you can only afford the down payment for a house in Jianghai. As for the half-a-miIIion luxury car, you can only afford to dream about it.”

"You are just a penniless and powerless weakling. And you are dressed so shabbily for your matchmaking meeting. I really have no idea where you found the courage to come to this meeting."

"And you even asked my uncle to be our matchmaker. You are just a country bumpkin. Do you think you are worthy of me?"

The woman laughed coldly and she looked at Ye Fan with an air of superiority.

Inwardly, she was filled with loathing for the young man before her.

Under normal circumstances, she would never consider or agree to meet a poor man like him.

But her matchmaking partner had asked his parents to pester her uncle. And the parents were insistent on having a matchmaking meeting between her and

their son.

So the woman had no choice but to agree. She had to or she would risk embarrassing her uncle. And that explained why she was here tonight.

After hearing what the woman had to say, Ye Fan finally understood what was going on.

It looked like the long-haired beauty had mistaken him for her matchmaking partner.

But Ye Fan did not offer an explanation.

Instead, he laughed lightly and said, "You have said a lot of things. But I will only ask you one question. Are you still a virgin?"

"I~" Ye Fan's question had made her blush. And even though her mouth was opened, she could not say anything.

Finally, her embarrassment turned to anger and she screamed at Ye Fan. "You moronic male chauvinist pig!" "You lousy weakling! How dare you make demands? It is a tremendous honor just to be able to see me!”

"You are the first person I have met who asks such an absurd question during a matchmaking meeting!"

The woman's guilty conscience caused her to lash out at Ye Fan.

But Ye Fan ignored her and smiled to himself. From her reaction, Ye Fan could tell that the heavily made-up woman before him was a veteran of the bedroom.

"My wife is still the best after all."

Ye Fan sighed and, at this moment, a middle-aged man walked into the bar. He looked around for a while before making his way toward Ye Fan's table. And then, he sat down beside the long-haired woman.

"Get lost!"

"You dried-up old prune! How dare you try to take advantage of me? You cradle robber! How dare you lust after someone way out of your league?" The long-haired woman assumed that the middle-aged man was attracted to her and trying to flirt with her.

Piak~

The man's slap sent the long-haired woman flying for a few meters. After smashing a number of tables and chairs, she finally landed and sprawled on the floor. Her mouth was filled with blood but, just then, she was too frightened to even move, let alone scold her assailant.

"Mr. Chu, finally it is quiet."
