A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)

Chapter 180 Who's the Joke?

"Go to hell! You're seriously shameless! You're saying that Mu-Cheng is your wife, but have you asked

her if she acknowledges you as her husband? You're just a country bumpkin! Who gave you the

courage to make declarations like that! Mu-Cheng, tell him that you've never acknowledged this fellow!

Slap this fellow's face and make him wake up from his dream!” Han Li yelled fiercely in anger at Ye Fan

when she heard what he said and even tried to get Qiu Mu-Cheng on her side.

"Mum, are you quite done? I'm fine if you throw a tantrum outside the house but now you're even

making things ugly in public. Yes, Ye Fan isn't as rich as some others and he might not be as promising

either. He's from a poor family and he's a live-in son-in-law too. But no matter how useless Ye Fan

might seem, in the eyes of the law, he is still my lawfully wedded husband." Qiu Mu-Cheng finally

couldn't stand it anymore and exploded right back at her mother. Her pretty eyes were all red now.

She really had enough of this. Her mother shouted like this at home and she was still yelling about

outside.

It was so difficult to just have a meal in peace.

What made Qiu Mu-Cheng even more upset was how her mother didn't even ask for her opinion and

started calling Sun Yu-Hao her son-in-law and even got Sun Yu-Hao to call her 'Mum'.

Didn't her mother find all of this embarrassing?

"Why you...you...! Qiu Mu-Cheng! How dare you shout at your own mother over a useless bum! I've

brought you up for nothing!” Han Li was so angry she was shaking.

She wanted her daughter to teach Ye Fan a lesson, but she didn't expect her daughter to turn on her

and even speak up for Ye Fan.

"Han Li, that's quite enough from you as well. Yu-Hao is here too, so why make things so ugly?” Han

Hai put his chopsticks down and glared at his sister, so Han Li shut her mouth too.

Han Li was always respectful towards this older brother of hers.

But she was still angry and her expression was very nasty. The way she looked at Ye Fan was even

more contemptuous now.

After Han Li kept quiet, Han Hai looked at Ye Fan. "So you actually know how to drink on someone

else's behalf, and you think you're really capable by taking that glass for Mu-Cheng huh!"

"Since that's the case, then I'll let you take on everything for her! Don't blame me if you embarrass

yourself!"

Han Hai scoffed coldly and told Han Fei-Fei to buy a few bottles of cheaper but equally potent alcohol.

Han Hai was clearly out to make Ye Fan black out.

He wasn't going to spend that much money on this country bumpkin.

"Fill his glass to the brim! If you're a man, then drink up," said Han Hai with a cold smile as he got his

daughter to fill up Ye Fan's glass.

"Hai, you..." But Han Li was more worried about whether her own brother could take it or not.

"Auntie Li, don't worry, my dad's a champion at drinking. My dad is always the one sent to entertain all

the important people to the company and he's never gotten drunk before. Let's wait for that country

bumpkin to make a fool of himself," said Han Fei-Fei with a sly look on her face.

Ye Fan had already started drinking with Han Hai.

Glass after glass went down and they drank every glass in one mouthful.

"Ye Fan, don't drink anymore. My uncle can hold his liquor well because he often entertains clients, so

how are you going to endure more liquor than him?" Qiu Mu-Cheng knew that her uncle was trying to

get Ye Fan drunk and then watch him make a spectacle of himself.

But Ye Fan just waved his hand and said, "Mu-Cheng, it's alright. Since Uncle Hai is proposing a toast,

then as someone younger, I must return it. As long as Uncle Hai drinks, then I'll drink too.”

Good gracious. This man was still trying to put on a strong front.

Qiu Mu-Cheng was going to see if he could still say this after he got all drunk.

"Mu-Cheng, don't bother about him and let him drink. I'm sure Ye Fan can drink an ocean without

getting drunk," Sun Yu-Hao chimed in mockingly. He was waiting to watch a good show too.

Han Fei-Fei and Han Li were also waiting to watch Ye Fan embarrass himself.

Only Qiu Mu-Cheng's face was all red from anger. Ye Fan refused to listen to her and continued to

drink with Han Hai.

How could Ye Fan compare to Han Hai after Han Hai was so well trained in drinking for so many

years?

Wasn't he just waiting to embarrass himself?

Eventually Qiu Mu-Cheng gave up trying to persuade Ye Fan.

"Fine! Drink all you want and just die from it or something. Once you get all drunk I'm just going to

ignore you!” Qiu Mu-Cheng was so angry her face was distorted.

But Ye Fan continued to drink as much as Han Hai did. They clinked glasses and drank down glass

after glass of this 50% alcohol level Baijiu.

They had nearly downed two liters of Baijiu each but Ye Fan looked perfectly fine. His face wasn't red

and his heart wasn't racing. He continued to sit comfortably with a smile on his face as he drank with

Han Hai.

On the contrary, Han Hai was sweating profusely and both his face and neck were red. He had even

gone to the bathroom several times already.

"Dad, why don't we just drop it?" Han Fei-Fei tried to advise her father to stop because she was feeling

worried.

"No way! I'm going to make sure this country bumpkin knows his place! I'm going to make sure he

knows how to behave!” Han Hai was clearly not backing down and his fury continued to burn against

Ye Fan.

He refused to believe that he would lose to a country bumpkin.

In his anger, Han Hai clinked another seven or eight glasses with Ye Fan. Eventually he couldn't take it

any longer and collapsed to the floor. His entire body convulsed and he kept frothing at the mouth.

"Dad!”

"Hai!"

"Call the ambulance! Somebody call an ambulance!”

"This is alcohol poisoning!"

"How much did he drink?!"

Han Li and the rest were terribly shocked by the turn of events. The other diners tried to help too but in

the end, an ambulance came to take Han Hai to the hospital.

Qiu Mu-Cheng went along to the hospital while the rest remained in Haiyuan Restaurant.

But after something like that had happened, none of them were in the mood to eat anymore. Ye Fan on

the other hand, remained calm and drank a cup of tea.

Han Li was instantly enraged by this act and snatched the teacup from Ye Fan to smash it to the floor.

PIANG!

The ceramic cup broke into several pieces as Han Li started another angry tirade.

'You actually have the cheek to sit here?!

Get lost right now! You're really a shameless piece of trash! If anything happens to my brother, you're

doomed!” Han Li shrieked at him with reddened eyes.

Han Fei-Fei was also feeling so hateful that she clenched her teeth at Ye Fan, "You've ruined a

perfectly wonderful dinner! You'd better start praying that my dad is going to be ok, otherwise I won't let

you off either! Get lost, you country bumpkin!"

Sun Yu-Hao also snorted as he said coldly, "You're just a useless live-in son-in-law but you sure

managed to create a lot of trouble. Aren't you leaving now?! You're not welcome here at all!"

"Get lost! Get lost!" Han Li and the rest started shouting at Ye Fan to leave the restaurant.

Now they really regretted allowing Ye Fan to sit at their table.

If they had known earlier that this country bumpkin was capable of causing this much trouble, they

would never have let

him join them.

They were now putting all the blame and directing all their fury at Ye Fan.

They never stopped to think that they were the ones who had been humiliating him from the beginning

and even this drinking competition was started by Han Hai first. So Han Hai collapsing from alcohol

poisoning didn't have anything to do with Ye Fan at all.

But they didn't care. Being poor was Ye Fan's crime and anything that went wrong was definitely Ye

Fan's fault because he was born poor and raised in the countryside.

Since he wasn't capable or anything like that, he had to become their punching bag. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Ye Fan didn't respond to the way they accused him and he couldn't be bothered with them at all.

He got up and calmly looked at all of them one by one...
