A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)

Chapter 61 Overblowing His Trumpet

"Good afternoon, is madam interested in this diamond ring?"

"Oh madam, you have a discerning eye. This diamond ring is a collaborative work between Shen

Jewelry and the world-renowned jewelry brand, Love for Venus. It is a ring that represents true love."

"Its high-class elegance is expressed through the multicolored diamond and golden band."

"Look at this diamond. It looks like the passionate heart of a lover and, at the same time, a drop of tear

from a sweetheart. If you are buying it, we can even engrave the name of this gentleman onto the ring."

"In my name, it crowns your finger. A word of promise, a lifetime of union."

When the salesperson saw Qiu Mu-Cheng and her companions approach her booth, she immediately

approached them with a smile on her face. And then, she enthusiastically promoted the ring to them.

As she was giving her sales talk, the salesperson kept turning to look at Sun Yu-Hao, as if she was

also promoting the ring to him.

After all, based on her experience, the beautifully dressed gentleman was probably the one holding the

purse strings.

Perhaps she really liked the ring. Because this was Qiu Mu-Cheng's first time trying on something at

the exhibition.

When she wore the sparkling ring on her fair and flawless finger, it was as if the ring was made just for

her. For a brief moment, the lights in the hall dimmed in comparison to its brilliance.

"How noble!"

"What elegance!”

"Wow, miss, this ring is made for you."

"You looked so noble and elegant, when you put on the ring."

The salesperson cut loose with a heap of exaggerated praises.

Qiu Mu-Cheng extended her hand to admire the ring, and it was obvious that she liked what she saw.

Ye Fan, who was watching his wife, felt a pang of guilt.

When they had gotten married, they had dispensed with all formalities. And Ye Fan had never bought a

ring for Qiu Mu-Cheng.

It was no wonder that Qiu Mu-Cheng had expressed such yearning for the diamond ring. Other women

had received diamond rings when they had gotten married. But even though Qiu Mu-Cheng was also a

woman, she had not received anything. So how could she not yearn for a ring? How could she not feel

disappointed?

"May I know how much does this ring cost?" Qiu Mu-Cheng asked.

The salesperson replied immediately: "Madam, the ring you have chosen is our flagship product. The Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

total sales price is nine hundred and ninety thousand."

Nine hundred and ninety thousand?

When she heard the price, Qiu Mu-Cheng paled noticeably and did not speak again. She simply bowed

her head and prepared to remove the ring from her finger.

At first, Qiu Mu-Cheng had decided that, if the ring cost less than a hundred thousand, she would bite

the bullet and buy it. Ever since she had gotten married, Qiu Mu-Cheng had always wanted to have a

diamond ring of her own. But, even though this ring suited her perfectly, it was just too expensive.

Qiu Mu-Cheng shook her head in disappointment. But before she could take off the ring, two voices

rang out at the same time from behind her.

"I am buying it.”

"I am buying it.”

Mm?

The salesperson and Han Fei-Fei were confounded when they heard the two

voices.

They were not surprised that Sun Yu-Hao had said he wanted to buy the ring. But they had not

expected the hitherto quiet Ye Fan to say the same thing.

"Ye Fan, don't talk nonsense." Qiu Mu-Cheng turned to her husband and rebuked him.

"Hahaha~"

"You bumpkin! You want to buy it? Do you have the money?"

"You are just a gate-crasher. What? Do you think you can flatter them and persuade them to give you

the ring?"

"It's nine hundred and ninety thousand.

You won't get this much money even if you sell yourself."

"Don't show off when you don't have any money. You are just making a fool of yourself." Han Fei-Fei

looked mockingly at Ye Fan, as if the latter was an idiot.

Sun Yu-Hao put his hands into his pockets and sneered, as if he was watching a skit. "Ye Fan, a

gentleman does not covet. So if you have the money to buy the ring, please go ahead. I will step aside

and let you have it."

The salesperson was an astute character and, looking at the situation before her, she instantly

understood what was going on.

She deduced that the two men in front of her were fighting over this Miss Qiu.

And, judging by what they had just said, one of the men was a poor bumpkin while the other had both

power and wealth.

After assessing the situation, the salesperson started making plans of her own.

"Okay, I will use my card." Ye Fan did not reject Sun Yu-Hao's offer. Since the latter was willing to back

off, it did save Ye Fan some trouble.

And so, Ye Fan pulled out the Hongqi Bank black card from his pocket and handed it over to the

salesperson.

"Whoa, this poor bastard is actually going to buy it?"

"Let's see how he is going to end this farce, when they find out that he doesn't have any money." Han

Fei-Fei laughed mockingly, when she saw Ye Fan "playacting” with a bank card.

Meanwhile, Qiu Mu-Cheng had stepped forward to pull her husband back. "Ye Fan, are you crazy? You

can't fool around here. You will get thrown out.”

Her words were filled with a hint of anger.

Obviously, Qiu Mu-Cheng was unhappy with Ye Fan for acting beyond his means.

Wasn't he just making a fool of himself?

And then, she would lose face as well because she was his wife!

Qiu Mu-Cheng immediately regretted her decision to bring Ye Fan along.

But Ye Fan ignored his wife and continued to hand his card over to the salesperson.

But she took one look at the black card and burst out laughing. "Sir, I have been working in this line for

over ten years. And I have seen all sorts of bank cards. But I have never heard of or seen one like

yours."

"Even if you are a fool, please do not treat others like fools as well."

"I think you should just take this fake card back home with you, and stop wasting everybody's time."

The salesperson smiled disdainfully and threw the card back at Ye Fan.

And the bank card landed on the floor with a pa.

"Ying-Ying, I think this is not right. He is a customer after all?” Just then, a younger salesperson, who

could no longer bear to watch the bullying, approached her senior and offered a word of advice.

But Wang Ying-Ying glared at her junior and said, "Take care of your own work first. This is none of

your business."

After scolding her junior, Wang Ying-Ying hurriedly put on a servile look on her face and turned to look

at Sun Yu-Hao. "Sir, is this lady here your girlfriend?"

"The man is handsome and the woman is beautiful. Sir, you and this lady here are a match made in

heaven."

"If you present this diamond ring to Miss Qiu, I am sure she will not be able to refuse."

After she had finished talking to Sun Yu-Hao, she turned to Qiu Mu-Cheng and smiled: "Lady, you are

fortunate to meet a good man like him. Why don't you just marry him?"

"Not only is he good-looking, he is also willing to spend money on you. Unlike somebody who has no

money, but still wants to go around wooing girls. What a joke." "A good man like him is hard to find."

Wang Ying-Ying's flattery made Sun Yu-Hao feel pleasant, even though he knew she was doing so to

promote the diamond ring.

"You have a way with words. Since Mu-Cheng likes this diamond ring, then I will buy it for her," Sun Yu-

Hao said generously. And he took out his bank card.

When Wang Ying-Ying saw this, she was immediately overwhelmed with joy.

If she could seal the deal, she would earn a lot in commission.

"Oh yeah, why is this diamond so tiny?

How big is it?" Sun Yu-Hao frowned when he glanced at the diamond ring.

"It is 2.99 carat."

"No, it is too small. An unworthy match for Mu-Cheng's beauty. Do you have anything bigger?" Sun Yu-

Hao said boldly. But his tone of voice made him sound pretentious.

"Wow, Yu-Hao! You are so generous!" "Mu-Cheng, I really envy you," Han Fei-Fei shrieked in

excitement.

Wang Ying-Ying was also excited when she heard this. She thought she had met a tycoon. "Yes yes

yes, we do!" she replied hurriedly.

As she was speaking, Wang Ying-Ying pulled out another diamond ring. "This has the same design as

the previous ring. But the diamond is 9.99 carat. This is the most treasured item in our shop."

When Sun Yu-Hao heard "9.99 carat," the corner of his eye twitched unnoticeably. But he forged on

boldly. "How much does it cost?"

"It's not expensive. It only costs three million nine hundred ninety-nine thousand. Xiao-Yu, show this

gentleman the way to the cashier."

"Haha~"

"Lady, you are so lucky to have a man like him love and pamper you. If I were a bit younger, I would

have become your love

rival."

Wang Ying-Ying was wrapping up the diamond ring, as she spoke feelingly to Qiu Mu-Cheng.

But Sun Yu-Hao stayed rooted to the spot. He had no intention of making payment.

"Mm? Xiao-Yu, what are you doing? Hurry up and bring the gentleman to the cashier. Oh yeah, to

congratulate the both of you, I will take responsibility and round up the figure. I will take off nine

thousand and sell it to you for only three million nine hundred and ninety thousand. Lady, when you get

married, please do not forget to send me some wedding candy." Wang Ying-Ying was full of alacrity as

she spoke to her customers.

Meanwhile, Sun Yu-Hao's eye was twitching uncontrollably. The corner of his eye was already sore

from all the twitching.

Do I freaking look like a person who can't spare a mere nine-thousand?

I have nine thousand, but I do not have the three million!

Just then, Sun Yu-Hao was inwardly scolding the salesperson. I only told you to find something bigger,

but I did not freaking tell you to pick the biggest one!

Even Sun Yu-Hao could not afford to spend nearly four million all at once. He did not even have that

much money in his account.

He had overblown his trumpet. Sun Yu-Hao stood there, still unwilling to make payment, as fear and

anger raced across his face.
