A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 58

"Ai~"

"Mu-Cheng had such a good opportunity tonight, but she turned it down.”

"Instead of accepting Young Master Sun's invitation, she actually went shopping with that useless trash."

"I have no idea what she is thinking."

Han Hai and his wife sighed softly, as they looked at the retreating backs of the couple who were walking together under a shared umbrella.

They were angry at their niece for not putting in effort to secure her happiness and, at the same time, they grieved over her misfortune.

Han Fei-Fei was the person who had gotten into the BMW earlier. She had taken her cousin's place because Qiu Mu-Cheng had rejected Sun Yu-Hao's invitation and gone shopping with Ye Fan.

Han Hai's expression grew heavy. He remembered the last time he had seen his niece. Back then, she had treated Ye Fan coldly, with a hint of dislike. But now, for some reason, there was a subtle change in Qiu Mu-Cheng's attitude toward her husband.

Perhaps, Mu-Cheng has been touched by Ye Fan's persistence.

But Mu-Cheng, one day, you will understand that the good qualities of a man are nothing, when compared to power and wealth.

Han Hai shook his head with a sigh, and called for his wife to return upstairs.

"Let's go. I believe tomorrow's jewelry exhibition will show Mu-Cheng the difference between Ye Fan and Young Master Sun."

And then the Hans returned upstairs.

Meanwhile, Qiu Mu-Cheng and Ye Fan were chatting as they walked to their destination.

My uncle was the one who introduced Sun Yu-Hao to me. Since I have rejected his invitation tonight, it would be rude of me to turn down tomorrow's invitation."

"Therefore, tomorrow, I will be accompanying Sun Yu-Hao to the jewelry exhibition at Jianghai Hall. Please come along as well."

Qiu Mu-Cheng's voice was soft, as if she was asking for Ye Fan's permission.

Although Qiu Mu-Cheng had not consummated her marriage with Ye Fan, they were still husband and wife in name. And Ye Fan had given her a lot of help with the Qius' business matters. So when it came to certain matters, Qiu Mu-Cheng had to consider his feelings.

Ye Fan did not object. Turning down this invitation would make him look petty. In any case, he would be there as well. It was unlikely that Sun Yu-Hao would dare to do anything inappropriate to Qiu Mu-Cheng, when her husband was accompanying her.

The rest of the night passed swiftly.

The next morning, Sun Yu-Hao called the Han's residence to inform them that he would come by and pick them up at three in the afternoon.

But Qiu Mu-Cheng turned down his offer.

She told Sun Yu-Hao not to trouble himself as she would be taking her cousin's car to the exhibition.

Soon it was three o'clock.

"Mu-Cheng, quick. Let's go.”

"Don't keep Yu-Hao waiting."

Han Fei-Fei was happy as a lark. She had already changed into an exquisite long dress, and was calling out to her cousin from downstairs.

"I am coming. I am coming."

A few moments later, both Qiu Mu-Cheng and Ye Fan arrived downstairs.

"Mm?" "Why are you here?'

"Were you invited?" Han Fei-Fei asked unhappily. The smile had vanished from her face the moment she saw Ye Fan.

"Fei-Fei, he is my husband. Don't be rude."

"If he is not going, then I am not going as well," Qiu Mu-Cheng added.

Han Fei-Fei had not choice but to let Ye Fan accompany them. Her parents wanted her to try her best to bring Qiu Mu-Cheng and Sun Yu-Hao together. And Sun Yu-Hao had also asked her to lend a helping hand. Therefore, Qiu Mu-Cheng must attend the jewelry exhibition.

"Okay, get into the car."

"Be careful. Don't dirty my car."

Han Fei-Fei glared at Ye Fan, her face full of disdain.

Afterward, the trio reached the city center, where Jianghai Hall was located.

"Mu-Cheng, let me tell you. This Jianghai Hall is where the elites gather. Despite my father's connections, even he might not be able to get into today's exhibition."

"Only the wealthy and eminent, the members of Jianghai's upper-class society, are invited to today's exhibition."

"If it weren't for Yu-Hao, we would not have the opportunity to attend."

"When the time comes, you go have fun with Yu-Hao. And I will take the opportunity to look for my Prince Charming. If a Prince Charming happens to fall in love with me, then it will be a really profitable day for me." Along the way, Han Fei-Fei chatted away happily and her words were full of exaggerated praise for Sun Yu-Hao.

And soon, they arrived at their destination.

Numerous luxury cars were parked outside the venue. A modest vehicle, like Han Fei-Fei's Buick, might be too embarrassed to park itself among them. Sometimes, the difference between the haves and the have nots can be really obvious.

"Fei-Fei, Mu-Cheng, here you are at last."

Sun Yu-Hao had been waiting at the entrance for a while. When he saw Qiu Mu-Cheng and Han Fei-Fei, a smile broke out on his face and he went forward to greet them.

He was holding a bouquet of flowers, which he presented to Qiu Mu-Cheng.

"You have already turned me down once yesterday. This time, I hope you will not reject me again."

"Just pretend it is a gift from a friend."

And Sun Yu-Hao's words made it difficult for Qiu Mu-Cheng to reject the flowers.
