Chapter 189 Basking in his Wife's Glory
"Mrs Lin, just like what you said earlier, everyone belongs to a particular circle. Everyone eligible to
enter the auction hall are the most wealthy and powerful of Jiangdong and you might not even be able
to get in even if you're worth a few billion. Mrs Lin, you don't belong in this circle in the first place. Even
if you go, you'd just be embarrassing yourself," Qiu Mu-Cheng said calmly as her words echoed in the
cafe.
Qiu Mu-Cheng smiled as she looked at Han Wenxue. The smile on her exquisite face was so genial, it
would have made anybody smile back.
But when Han Wenxue heard these familiar sounding words, her face turned bright red and she hung
her head without saying anything. There was nowhere for her to hide herself.
Of course Han Wenxue had noticed that Qiu Mu-Cheng had used the same words she used to insult
Qiu Mu-Cheng earlier.
And now Qiu Mu-Cheng had used the exact same words on her. Han Wenxue was embarrassed and
her face was almost as red as freshly roasted pork knuckles.
Many of the onlookers shook their heads and chuckled. They looked at Han Wenxue like they were
looking at a clown.
Han Wenxue couldn't stand being in the cafe anymore and quickly ran off with her things.
"HAHA! Mu-Cheng, you've done a good job of insulting her back. I couldn't stand her right from the
start. Just look at how arrogant she looks! She got to where she is today by being a mistress! I don't
know what she's so proud of even." Su Qian was feeling so gleeful when she watched Han Wenxue
run off with an embarrassed expression on her face.
The two ladies didn't stay either and left the mall too.Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
"Why are you still daydreaming? Carry our things! We're going home! Oh my gosh I can't believe you
fell asleep! Your wife was insulted and you actually managed to fall asleep! I can't believe you!
Seriously, marrying you was the worst thing to happen to Mu-Cheng!" Su Qian glared at the man
sleeping on the sofa and flew into a rage. She felt like life was so unfair to her BFF.
Su Qian didn't bother waiting for him either. She dragged Qiu Mu-Cheng along to the carpark.
Ye Fan laughed bitterly and stretched his arms, then reached down to pick up the shopping bags.
Just when Ye Fan bent over to pick the bags up, a man in a suit didn't notice the bags near his feet and
kicked several of them over. The man ended up stumbling backwards by a few steps and nearly lost his
balance.
"What the hell? Which idiot dared to trip me? Tired of living?” Jin Bao immediately became furious and
started shouting.
But when he saw who it was, Jin Bao's angry expression immediately froze.
He looked like a deflated balloon and nearly crumbled to pieces.
"Mr...Mr Chu, I'm so sorry, I didn't see that it was you..." said Jin Bao in fright. He was about to pee his
pants and nearly burst into tears.
He was so focused on Qiu Mu-Cheng earlier that he didn't notice Ye Fan was around too.
And now he had offended Ye Fan by accident. Jin Bao was so scared that he had a terrified expression
as he kept bowing to Ye Fan to apologize.
Everyone watching was stunned.
Wasn't this that Miss Qiu's husband?
Wasn't he supposed to be a useless live-in husband?
Why was that man in a suit being so frightened and polite to him?
"Could it be that the really powerful one isn't Miss Qiu but this ordinary looking
man?"
"Or perhaps those tickets were actually meant for this man?”
Many of the onlookers widened their eyes and were feeling terribly shocked.
Ye Fan just ignored all these responses.
He squatted down to quietly pick up all the bags that Jin Bao kicked over and didn't care about what Jin
Bao said at all.
Jin Bao became even more terrified and was really on the verge of tears now. "Mr Chu, don't be like
this. You can hit me or punish me, but please say something!"
Ye Fan remained silent.
Just before Jin Bao seriously burst into tears, Ye Fan got up and patted him on the shoulder. "Have you
forgotten what I told you before? Just live quietly."
"I remember, I remember. Live quietly, be charitable and be someone who often wears a smile," Jin
Bao quickly replied as he nodded profusely.
Ye Fan nodded. "Good, looks like you do remember what I said."
"But Li Er is quite smart huh. Since he couldn't get me to go for the auction, he used my wife to
pressurize me. That's quite a clever stunt. Go back and tell him that while it's good to be clever, don't
be too clever. I should have punished all of you for this, but since my wife is so happy to receive those
tickets, I'll let this matter go," said Ye Fan calmly while Jin Bao trembled fearfully next to him.
He never expected Mr Chu to see through Li Er's intentions so easily.
Thankfully Mr Chu didn't get angry, otherwise Jin Bao figured he wouldn't be in one good piece
anymore.
"That's quite enough, you guys can leave," Ye Fan motioned to them to leave and didn't make things
difficult for them.
"Oh by the way, I nearly forgot. You saw that Han...something Xue just now, right?
She's made my wife angry, so you guys know what to do?” Ye Fan calmly dropped one more line with a
smile.
Jin Bao immediately nodded and replied, "Don't worry, Mr Chu. I will report this matter to Master Er and
we will definitely take care of this matter to your satisfaction."
Jin Bao and his men then left.
Ye Fan also headed for the carpark to look for Qiu Mu-Cheng to head home together.
"Why did you take so long? Where did you go?” Qiu Mu-Cheng asked Ye Fan.
Ye Fan just grinned. "It's nothing, ran into a small problem but it's all resolved."
Qiu Mu-Cheng nodded and didn't ask further. Then she calmly said, "You should be free on the night of
the Mid-Autumn Festival, right? Go out with me."
"Of course I'm free. Accompanying my wife is an important task and even if I'm not free, I'll make time
for you," replied Ye
Fan with a smile.
Su Qian just snorted, "Do you even know where Mu-Cheng is bringing you?”
"So many people want to go but don't get the chance! You're just basking in Mu-Cheng's glory! But
seriously, Mu-Cheng. Are you really going to bring him along? He's just a beggar from the countryside
and a useless live-in husband. Aren't you afraid that he'll embarrass you?"
Su Qian kept shaking her head and sighing. She still felt that giving the ticket to someone like Ye Fan
was an insult to the event.
"I don't know how much karma you accumulated in your previous life, but you were actually lucky
enough to marry Mu-Cheng in this life," sighed Su Qian again and again. Qiu Mu-Cheng told her to
stop it.
"Stop it? Why? I need this country bumpkin to know that he's gotten all these privileges because of
YOU. Otherwise he might become complacent and ungrateful to you," retorted Su Qian angrily.
Ye Fan just listened to their conversation and smiled without talking.
Su Qian and Qiu Mu-Cheng would never have imagined that Li Er had given Qiu Mu-Cheng those
tickets because he wanted Ye Fan to attend the auction.
If not for Ye Fan, these two ladies wouldn't even have gotten a ticket to sit outside the auction hall.
So Ye Fan wasn't basking in their glory at all. The two ladies were the one benefitting from him.
