A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 70

Inside the restaurant.

Ye Fan continued to stand there composedly. In the lobby, it felt like his rage-filled words were still reverberating through the air.

Meanwhile, Chen Ao was thunderstruck by the turn of events. Nobody knew just how shocked he had been, when Ye Fan tossed him the piece of jade engraved with the blood-red "Chu" character.

Chen Ao's mind was in turmoil, as if somebody had dropped a giant rock in it and caused huge waves to appear.

The arrogance and anger he had shown Ye Fan was gone in an instant, like smoke in the wind.

At this moment, Chen Ao was panicking. He dared not say anything, as he stepped forward with a face as white as sheet.

In the next moment, under the shocked gazes of everyone present, the kingpin who ruled over both Jianghai and Jiangdong suddenly knelt in front of Ye

Fan.

And then, Chen Ao's voice rang out reverently in the restaurant. "Young Master has honored us with your presence. Please allow me to pay my respect to you."

"Just now, it was my fault for failing to recognize and offending you. I truly deserve to die many times over. Young Master, I will accept your punishment!"

Dead quiet-

The place went as silent as a graveyard.

In the restaurant, Chen Ao was prostrating himself on the floor and paying respect to Ye Fan in a panic. His reverent voice rang out like thunder, and shocked everyone present.

Many in the crowd were dumbfounded.

Meanwhile, Sheng Tian was staring at the scene unfolding before him in disbelief. He was now in a predicament.

As for the bodyguards who had pointed their guns at Ye Fan, they were lamenting inwardly. Cold sweat was pouring down their backs, and they could barely hold their guns properly.

Good heavens!

What kind of person had they just offended?

"You may get up. This is our first meeting, so it is only natural that you do not recognize me."

"All these years, you have been running Jiangdong on my behalf. It must have been hard on you."

Ye Fan had been living in hiding for the past ten years. During this period, only Han, the elderly butler, had been in direct contact with him. It was only natural for the other followers, such as Li Er and Chen Ao, to not recognize Ye Fan. And that was why Ye Fan had no intention of blaming Chen Ao.

"No no, it is not difficult at all. It is my honor to be able to serve Young Master." "Eight years ago, if it weren't for Young Master's timely assistance, I would have perished then. And I, Chen Ao, would not be where I am today."

"Young Master, you are my greatest benefactor. I have always remembered and never dared to let myself forget the help you have rendered me. All these years, I have been hoping for a day when I would be able to serve you and repay your favor."

As Chen Ao knelt on the floor, he spoke words that were filled with reverence and gratitude.

Ye Fan nodded. "You are indeed a warmhearted and honorable man. It seems that I have not erred in my judgement. Now, get up. And do something about these small fries. It upsets me to look at them."

To the "small fries", Ye Fan's soft voice sounded like the ringing of a death knell.

"Young Master, don't worry. Regarding what just happened, I will handle it to your satisfaction. Please go upstairs and wait there." Chen Ao respectfully invited Ye Fan to move to the floor above.

"What are you standing there for?"

"Get your ass over here now!"

"You asshole! You nearly got me into big trouble~"

Chen Ao turned his head and started screaming at Sheng Tian.

The latter was trembling all over and swaying unsteadily on his feet. A torrent of cold sweat poured down his back, as icy fear gripped his heart. Meanwhile, Mr. Du was panicking inwardly and his face had turned an unhealthy shade of green.

"Mr. Sheng, what... what..." Mr. Du was also trembling as he looked at Sheng Tian, who was standing just nearby.

Sheng Tian had a pained look in his eyes as he replied, "Damn it. I think we are in big trouble-"
