A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)

Chapter 93 The Berserk Shen Fei

"Chen Hai-Sheng, the young master of Jiucheng Holdings of Jingzhou, is here to celebrate Madam

Han's birthday. I present to you this crutch made of Phoebe zhennan wood. May you enjoy good

fortune as vast as the sea!"

"Liu Zhao-Ran, the general manager of Donghua Industries of Jingzhou, is here to celebrate Madam Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Han's birthday. I present to you a pair of peaches made of Lantian jade. May you live to a ripe old age!"

"Lei Ao-Ting, the crown prince of the Lei family and the young master of Lei Group of Jingzhou, is here

to celebrate Madam Han's birthday. I present to you a platinum tea set. May you live to a ripe old age!"

A bout of hearty laughter rang out from the courtyard's entrance.

And several men, all dressed to the nines and looking radiant, appeared before the assembled guests.

All of them had smiles dancing on their lips as they walked toward the hall.

Although the new arrivals were just young men in their twenties, all of them had on branded clothes. It

was clear that they were from well-to-do families. And just like that, while carrying the birthday gifts in

their hands, the young men walked proudly forward under the shocked gazes of the assembled guests.

"Damn!"

"A crutch made of Phoebe zhennan wood?"

"How much do you think it is worth?"

"Several dozen thousand perhaps?"

Everyone was surprised. Phoebe zhennan wood was renowned as the king of wood, and top-quality

Phoebe zhennan wood could go for several million per tonne.

"That pair of peaches is also awesome! They are made of jade!"

"Damn! Look at that tea set! Not only is the workmanship exquisite, it is also made of platinum!"

"It must cost at least several hundred thousand?”

"Damn! Whose guests are they?"

The surrounding guests had erupted into a frenzy.

When the gifts were announced, even Madam Han could not help panicking.

As for Han Hai and his son, they were both badly shaken.

The fact that the new arrivals were bringing such valuable birthday gifts meant that not only were they

from well-to-do families, but they were also taking this celebration seriously.

But why would they go to such expense? For whose sake?

Madam Han and the other guests were badly shaken. Nobody had any idea who the gift bearers were.

And so, when Madam Han was suddenly presented with such expensive gifts, she did not dare to

accept them.

"Grandmother, my friends have come to celebrate your birthday. Won't you say something to them?"

Just as everyone was still reeling in shock, the hitherto silent Mo Wen-Xuan stood up from his seat and

spoke up.

"Wen...Wen-Xuan, are these people your guests?" Han Hai asked in surprise.

Mo Wen-Xuan smiled and said, "But of course?"

"Out of everyone here, besides the Mo family, who else could command such respect in Jingzhou?"

"Don't tell me you are actually thinking that they are here for Ye Fan?" Mo Wen-Xuan said heavily, his

voice filled with haughtiness.

A burst of proud laughter rang out as he stood there with his hands clasped behind his back.

While he was speaking, Mo Wen-Xuan completely ignored the shock in Han Hai's eyes and the fearful

gazes of the guests. He simply turned to his wife and said, "Come, darling. Let us go and welcome the

guests."

At this moment, Mo Wen-Xuan's spirits were soaring as he basked in the envious and shocked gazes

of the crowd.

"Okay!"

Han Yu's face was filled with joy and pride. She lifted her long skirt and stood up gracefully like a

princess. After grabbing her husband's hand, the couple walked forward together toward where the

guests from Jingzhou were standing.

And then, the couple escorted their guests to Madam Han, all the while chatting away happily. All the

guests shivered in shock as this scene unfolded before them.

"Damn!"

"They are here for Han Yue's son-in-law?”

Awesome!"

"That Donghua Industries is the biggest real estate company in Jingzhou

"That Jiucheng Holdings is also awesome. It is one of the first companies to go public in Jiangdong. At

the peak of the stock market, the company was worth a hundred billion."

"That Lei Ao-Ting is even more awesome. He is the son of Master Lei San, the kingpin of Jingzhou.

Master Lei San is the ruler of Jingzhou, so that makes Lei Ao-Ting the crown prince!"

"What a surprise! To think Han Yue has such an awesome son-in-law! Even the crown prince of

Jingzhou has come to support him!”

"Damn! How lucky is this family!"

"Madam Han's granddaughter has gotten herself an excellent husband!"

Outside the hall, the townsfolk had erupted into a frenzy of envy.

Just then, Madam Han's face was flushed red with agitation. "Excellent, excellent. Excellent-"

"Wen-Xuan has done us proud-!"

"Hahahaha-"

Madam Han was so agitated that she said "excellent" three times in a row.

Just then, the guests from Jingzhou had already entered the hall under the escort of Mo Wen-Xuan.

When they saw Madam Han, they immediately offered their greetings.

"Madam, we are friends of Wen-Xuan."

"We heard that today is your birthday, so we all came here to celebrate!"

"Madam, your granddaughter has married a good man. You will surely enjoy good fortune from now

on." Lei Ao-Ting and his friends laughed heartily. They were saying a lot of nonsense that all meant the

same thing.

We are all here for Wen-Xuan. If you weren't related to Wen-Xuan, we would not have come such a

long way for your birthday.

Undoubtedly, Lei Ao-Ting had said all that to boost Mo Wen-Xuan's standing.

Madam Han was looking radiant as she nodded her head repeatedly. "Yes, Wen-Xuan joining our

family is the most fortunate thing to ever happen to me.”

"Wen-Xuan is the pride of our family~"

Madam Han dished out the praises liberally. Her reaction now was very different from her reaction

earlier when she had heard Shen Fei's compliments to Ye Fan.

Just then, Mo Wen-Xuan looked like he was at the top of the world. And his wife, Han Yu, was also

looking haughty. Her vanity had been thoroughly satisfied.

Afterward, Mo Wen-Xuan told his wife to introduce their guests to the surrounding relatives. And Han

Yu did just that. But although she introduced the VIP guests to Han Hai and his family, she did not bring

them to Qiu Mu-Cheng's table.

At this moment, it was as if the world had forgotten about Qiu Mu-Cheng and Ye Fan. The atmosphere

was lively in the hall but, out in the courtyard, only Shen Fei kept the couple company.

"Mom, Young Master Lei's father is Master Lei San, the kingpin of Jingzhou. In terms of status, Young

Master Lei is way more important than that down-and-out wastrel from the Shen family. Aren't you

happy, now that Young Master Lei has come personally for your birthday?" Han Yue could not help

praising her son-in-law. And she also took the opportunity to belittle Shen Fei in order to accentuate her

son-in-law's quality.

"Hahaha~ But of course! I am proud of Yu's husband. As for that piece of trash my other granddaughter

has married, I can't stand the sight of him."

Madam Han was very satisfied with Mo Wen-Xuan. He had really boosted her standing at this banquet.

Even the crown prince of Jingzhou's Lei Group had come to celebrate her birthday. Not many in

Jianghai could enjoy this honor.

"Grandmother, we don't have enough chairs. Where can I find some more? I will move some over."

They were out of chairs because too many guests had come. So Mo Wen-Xuan went to the old madam

to ask for more.

However, before Madam Han could say anything, Han Yue answered his question. "Wen-Xuan, you

stay and keep Young Master Lei company. You should not be performing menial tasks. Tell that live-in

son-in-law to get the chairs. We can't just let him freeload off us.”

"Yes, you are right," Madam Han nodded. She turned to look at Ye Fan, who was happily drinking his

tea in the courtyard, and said angrily: "That bastard. He is just eating and drinking away. He isn't doing

any work at all. Han Yue, you go tell him to move some chairs in here."

A short while later, Han Yue walked into the courtyard and looked at the trio who were drinking tea and

happily chatting away. "Heh, we are so busy entertaining our guests and, yet, you two are idling away

and enjoying your tea," she said sneeringly.

"Auntie." Qiu Mu-Cheng greeted Han Yue politely, even though she was surprised to see her aunt at

their table.

Han Yue sneered and said, "Don't 'auntie' me. Quick, tell your useless husband to go to the warehouse

and carry some more chairs into the hall."

Han Yue's tone was haughty, as if she was talking to a servant.

Qiu Mu-Cheng said nothing. And Ye Fan continued to sip his tea. But Shen Fei blew his top

immediately.

"How dare you!"

"Who the hell do you think you are? How dare a bitch like you tell someone like Mr. Ye to go carry

chairs?"

"You are just a nobody!"

"How dare you offend Mr. Ye! Are you tired of living?"

Shen Fei slapped the table, jumped out of his seat and started to scold Han Yue.

"What... What do you think you are doing?"

Han Yue thought that Shen Fei was about to hit her and was frightened out of her wits. Her face paled

considerably. And her body trembled so much that she nearly collapsed onto the floor.
