A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)

Chapter 137 Pretending to Be Erudite

As it happened, the girl browsing through the trinkets was Li Xiao-Hong; someone who had already met

Ye Fan a few times already.

Ye Fan had not expected to see her here.

But since she was somebody he knew, Ye Fan walked up to and greeted her.

"Xiao-Hong, why are you here? Are you not working today?”

Today, Li Xiao-Hong was wearing a chiffon floral dress that revealed her glossy porcelain calves and

some light make-up. Overall, she had a sweet and lovely appearance.

"Ah, Mr. Chu, why are you here?" Li Xiao-Hong was clearly surprised and happy to see Ye Fan.

This was not their first meeting. Moreover, Ye Fan had helped her almost everytime they met. So

naturally, her heart was filled with gratitude and joy when she ran into him again. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

"There is no need to call me 'Mr. Chu.' Just call me Ye Fan," Ye Fan said with a smile.

After a short conversation, he found out Li Xiao-Hong's reason for coming here.

She had come for a blind date.

"My uncle found me a prospective marriage partner. We have arranged to meet today."

"So I took a day off and came here for the meeting."

Li Xiao-Hong's voice was soft and, as she was speaking, she blushed a little.

Obviously, she was feeling a bit embarrassed.

Just then, Li Xiao-Hong noticed the beautiful girl beside Ye Fan. "Mr. Chu, is this your girlfriend? She is

as beautiful as an angel."

However, as she said this, no one could see the look of disappointment in her eyes.

As expected, Mr. Chu already has a girlfriend.

When Chen Nan heard this, she blushed slightly. But just as she was about to explain that she was not

Ye Fan's girlfriend, two men suddenly started to approach them from afar.

One of them was young, only in his midtwenties, and he was wearing resplendent clothes that were

branded. One could tell at a glance that he was the son of a rich man.

And the other was a middle-aged man with a servile look on his face.

"Wang Yu, you had better not be lying to me. If your niece turns out to be ugly, you had better watch

out.” Liu Jia-Wei turned to his middle-aged companion and gave the latter a cold warning.

Wang Yu chuckled and said: "Young Master Liu, you have nothing to worry about. My niece's beauty is

renowned among the surrounding villages back home. If she weren't pretty, I would never have dared

to introduce her to Young Master Liu. I only hope that you will not forget my role as matchmaker."

Liu Jia-Wei replied: "Don't worry. As long as you help me get the girl, the position of sales supervisor is

yours. Although my father is still the one in charge at the company, but I can still make minor decisions

like this."

As they were talking, they found that they had already arrived at the meeting spot.

Wang Yu spotted his niece in a moment and shouted out in a hurry. "Xiao-Hong, why are you still

standing around? Get over here right now and greet Young Master Liu!"

Li Xiao-Hong walked over obediently and greeted Liu Jia-Wei with a shy look on her face.

"Young Master Liu, what do you think? My niece looks pretty enough, right?" Wang Yu turned to Liu

Jia-Wei and asked in a whisper. Meanwhile, the smile on his face made him looked as if he was

harboring evil intentions.

Liu Jia-Wei nodded and said, "Yes, she is good. She looks like a sweet girl.”

As he looked at the somewhat shy maiden, Liu Jia-Wei chuckled and licked his lips.

It looked like he was going to be busy tonight.

Just as the trio were chatting away, Ye Fan and Chen Nan walked over and smiled in greeting. "Xiao-

Hong, is he your uncle?"

Mm?

Wang Yu frowned and asked, "You are?"

Li Xiao-Hong hurriedly explained that they were her friends and she had just run into them.

"Friend?" Wang Yu sized up both Ye Fan and Chen Nan. When his gaze reached Chen Nan, it lingered

there for a few moments longer.

And then he thought that, since Ye Fan had a beautiful girlfriend like Chen Nan, he must be someone

wealthy or important.

So with his face full of smiles, Wang Yu greeted Ye Fan politely: "Young man, may I know where you

are from? What does your parents do for a living? You have gotten yourself such a beautiful girlfriend,

so your family must be pretty well off, right?"

Ye Fan shook his head and smiled. "I am afraid you will have to be disappointed. My family is from the

countryside. And my mother is just a farmer. They are not well off at all."

When he heard this, Wang Yu's smile vanished right away and his lip curled in disdain. "So you are

from the countryside. Xiao-Hong is busy today, so she will not be able to keep you company."

After coldly cutting Ye Fan off, he immediately dragged Li Xiao-Hong away. Along the way, he said

disgustedly: "In future, stop associating with poor people from the countryside. Do you hear me?"

At this moment, Liu Jia-Wei suddenly chimed in, "Ah stop. Since we all know each other, let us go

together. The more the merrier, right?"

But Wang Yu did not understand Liu Jia-Wei's motive, so he asked the latter: "Young Master Liu, will it

be alright to let them tag along? Won't they interrupt our plan?”

"Don't worry,” Li Jia-Wei said as he waved his hand dismissively. His gaze, however, remained on Chen

Nan. From the moment Chen Nan appeared, he had been captivated by her beauty and had not looked

away since then.

Looking at her graceful figure, the beautiful legs under her black miniskirt and her elegant features, Liu

Jia-Wei could almost imagine how seductive she must look as she laid naked on a bed.

"Ah, I understand. Haha, Young Master Liu is right. It must be fate that has brought us together. And

since you have just arrived, you must be unfamiliar with this place. So how about we all go for a walk

together?" Considering how fast it took him to grasp Liu Jia-Wei's intention, this Wang Yu was clearly a

sharp operator.

He changed the subject right away and managed to get everyone to go together.

Ye Fan did not refuse. In any case, the tournament would only begin in the evening. So since he had

nothing to do in the afternoon, he might as well accompany these people.

"You are Chen Nan, right?"

"You are beautiful and your name is so beautiful as well."

"This young man here is the young master of the Liu family."

"Let me tell you. Young Master Liu's family runs a company, you know? They are very rich. There are

plenty of young and pretty girls who want to marry the young master and become a rich man's wife."

"As long as you can make him happy, you too can become the heroine of a rags-to-riches story.”

Along the way, Wang Yu kept on trying to bring Chen Nan and Liu Jia-Wei together. To that end, he did

his best to brag about the Liu family.

And from time to time, Liu Jia-Wei would also try to show off the broadness of his knowledge and

experience in front of Chen Nan.

"Nan-Nan, I bet you haven't had any Lafite red wine before?"

"The wine is made in the Rollchit winery in England. It is the most elegant wine in the world.”

"Ah, its pure beauty and powerful fragrance! It is a layered wine that is elegant and perfect, with an

unique sweet aroma that lingers on and gives one a pleasurable aftertaste."

Liu Jia-Wei spoke slowly, in a refined and erudite manner.

Wang Yu started to clap his hands and repeatedly praised the young master for the broadness of his

knowledge.

"Young Master Liu! The girl who gets to marry you must be a very fortunate girl indeed!”

When he heard Liu Jia-Wei's words, Ye Fan spat out the Nongfu Spring water he had been drinking.

"Young Master Liu, I think you must have memorized the wrong lines?"

"The Lafite red wine is not made in England, but in France. And it's not the Rollchit winery, but the

Rothschild winery. It is also known as the Lafite winery," Ye Fan said slowly.

Chen Nan, who was just sitting beside him, covered her mouth and giggled.

And Liu Jia-Wei's face turned green with anger right away.
