A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)

Chapter 172 The Wife's Relatives come to Yunzhou

After Ye Fan was done talking to Li Er, he turned and left for home.

But Ye Fan didn't seem to have realized that there was a black Benz in a corner not too far away from

him, and it had parked itself there for quite some time now.

The car window was half open and there was an elegant lady seated inside. She just looked out quietly

and her beautiful eyes were filled with nothing but the man's slim and straight back view.

"Miss Xu, aren't you going over to say something to him?" Lin Wen-Jing couldn't help prodding from the

driver's seat in a low voice.

"No, just seeing him is enough for me," Xu Lei shook her head and smiled. Her faint voice sounded

strange. Nobody knew what this elegant woman could possibly be thinking about at all.

"But Miss Xu, are you really not going to tell Mr Chu at all? You're not going to tell him about your

feelings and how ten years ago, you already..." Lin Wen-Jing wanted to continue but Xu Lei cut her off.

"What's the point of saying it now? He already has his own family. There are some things that are

better just left unsaid."

"Alright now, Wen-Jing. We should get going. My uncles are probably getting antsy."

seen the one I've wanted to see. It's time I returned to the family and fulfil my duty as a descendant of

the Xu family." Her calm voice sounded like the quiet chirping of a nightingale and gently blew across

Yunwu Lake.

Lin Wen-Jing started up the car again. The engine growled low like a wild beast, but it seemed quiet in

this place.

The black Benz tore into the distance like a sharp knife, and drove wildly into the unknown road ahead.

A low and gently melody started playing inside the car.

Xu Lei didn't say anything. She just sat quietly in the car and turned to look out of the car window.

The trees whizzed by her and the green leaves looked like green lines in front of Xu Lei.

Back when Xu Lei first left her family, she had also just sat in the car and watched the trees by the

roadside whiz by quietly like this.

Who would have thought that ten years would pass just like that?

"My dear Fan, it's been ten years and I still haven't been able to say the thank you I owe you yet."

Tears had begun to blur Xu Lei's vision without her realizing it.

Her tears sparkled in the light and fell in large pearl-like drops to eventually become a steady stream.

"I often hear that separation is for the sake of a better reunion. Wen-Jing, do you think I'll get the

chance to see my beloved Fan again?" asked Xu Lei in the car as she cried.

Lin Wen-Jing felt like a knife was cutting her heart. After being by Xu Lei's side for so many years, this

was the first time she saw Xu Lei cry so sadly.

For the first time, Lin Wen-Jing realized that man must be really important to Xu Lei.

"Miss Xu, you will."

"You will meet Mr Chu again, I guarantee that!" replied Lin Wen-Jing in a low but determined voice.

It was a consolation, but it sounded more like a promise.

After that, the car fell silent again.

In no time, Lin Wen-Jing had driven Xu Lei to the suburbs of Yunzhou and slowly came to a stop.

"After ten years of being out there, Leilei, welcome home.”

A middle aged man stood outside the car in an expensive suit as he stretched his arms out towards Xu

Lei.

There were a dozen men in suits standing behind him and they greeted her respectfully, "We welcome

Young Mistress back home!"

"We welcome Young Mistress back home!"

The resounding voices merged together and shook the ground.

Xu Lei had no expression on her face and didn't respond. She just nodded at her uncle and got into his

car.

There was absolutely no expression on her exquisite face and she didn't look happy or excited to be

home after so many years.

The middle aged man just smiled helplessly. "It's been so many years, but your temperament hasn't

changed at all."

The middle aged man turned to wave his hand and shouted, "Let's go!”

VROOOM!

Dozens of luxury cars tore through the roads like a sharp knife, and it was as if a huge storm was

blowing through Yunzhou.

Before leaving, Xu Lei turned to look at the place where she had lived for nearly ten years.

Her lips parted very slightly and she said the word 'goodbye' in a voice that nobody else could hear.

But nobody knew who Xu Lei was bidding farewell too.

Of course, Ye Fan didn't know anything about what was happening on Xu Lei's side.

At Liuyuan Residential District.

Ye Fan had just reached home to find several cars parked downstairs.

"Whose guests are these? Must be pretty rich huh. Not everyone can afford to drive a BMW 5-series,"

mumbled Ye Fan to himself. He was about to make his way upstairs when he noticed some people

walking towards him.

"Hmm? Why are they here?" Ye Fan frowned with a puzzled look.

The people coming downstairs wasn't just anybody. They were Qiu Mu-Cheng's parents, Han Li and

Qiu Lei.

But what made Ye Fan feel puzzled wasn't the older couple but the three people beside Han Li.

Ye Fan knew who those three were. One was Qiu Mu-Cheng's uncle, Han Hai, and his daughter, Han

Fei-Fei. The young and handsome man chatting happily with Han Li wasn't a stranger either. That was

Sun Yu-Hao, the scion he met when he last went to Jianghai.

The last time Ye Fan and Qiu Mu-Cheng went to Jianghai to celebrate her grandmother's birthday, a lot

happened. And it had even made Ye Fan and Qiu Mu-Cheng fall out with Han Li's side of the family.

Ye Fan thought he would never meet them again. But he had run into them yet again today.

And Han Hai had actually come to visit them too.

Ye Fan couldn't help but feel suspicious. Why would Qiu Mu-Cheng's uncle suddenly turn up?

And with Sun Yu-Hao?

Sun Yu-Hao wasn't related to Han Hai.

Ye Fan didn't like Sun Yu-Hao at all.

Obviously no man would like some other guy who coveted his wife, right?

But even though Ye Fan was unhappy inside, Han Hai was an elder to Qiu Mu-Cheng after all and he

decided that he should still be polite to them for his wife's sake.

"Hello, Uncle Hai, why are you here? Why didn't you say you were coming? Mu-Cheng and I could

have gone to pick you up," Ye Fan smiled radiantly.

But Han Hai and the rest didn't even look at Ye Fan. They ignored him as if they hadn't heard him

speak to them at all.

Han Li and Qiu Lei had never really bothered to talk to Ye Fan at all and never liked him, so they

ignored him too.

Ye Fan had been given the cold shoulder, so he just stood by the side as if he was invisible.

Fine, Ye Fan thought to himself. He didn't want to bother about them in the first place, so it was better

that they ignored him too. He smiled coldly and decided to ignore them to go upstairs.

"Yu-Hao, I'm so glad you could come! You know, ever since Mu-Cheng came back from Jianghai, she

couldn't stop talking about you! If she wasn't so busy at work, she would probably have gone back to

Jianghai to look for you by now. Tonight, we'll take care of you, don't fight with me over this,” Han Li

continued to hold onto Sun Yu-Hao's arm and refused to let go after they reached the ground floor. The

way she looked so endearingly at him was the complete opposite of how she treated Ye Fan.
