A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 349 I'm Very Pleased with You

Qiu Mu-Cheng didn't know why either, but when Ye Fan held her hand, she felt a strange sense of security in her heart. It was as if she didn't need to fear even if a huge storm came her way.

But when Qiu Mu-Ying and her husband saw this scene, they immediately gloated over her cousin's misfortune.

Qiu Mu-Cheng deserved it!

These two were just getting their just desserts.

They couldn't believe that Qiu Mu-Cheng could knock a vase over even while walking. What a stupid woman!

"It better this way, I don't even have to do anything." Qiu Mu-Ying smiled gleefully and waited to watch a good show.

Qiu Mu-Ying was initially trying to think of a way to teach Qiu Mu-Cheng and Ye Fan a good lesson. After all, it was because of Ye Fan that the Qius fell out of favor with Wang Xing-Duo, and Qiu Mu-Ying had to suffer a scolding from her grandfather.

The incident at the art exhibition and that stolen jade hairpin made Qiu Mu-Ying so angry at these two and she couldn't wait to vent it out.

But now, she hadn't done anything and Qiu Mu-Cheng had gotten herself into trouble instead.

How was she going to pay for something that was worth nearly a million bucks?

Qiu Mu-Ying smiled coldly as she walked over and added fuel to the fire. "Mu-Cheng, don't just stand there in a daze."

"You've broken someone else's things, so you'd better pay up quickly. Aren't you the CEO of a company? You've even sent the invitation to Grandpa, so aren't you very cool? So now you can't even afford a few hundred thousand?" said Qiu Mu-Ying in a mocking voice as she continued to make things worse.

"Yingying, aren't you thinking too highly of this cousin of yours? She? A CEO? That's just an insignificant company and it might collapse anytime. I think she'll need to sell everything she has in order to cough up this money," Chu Wen-Fei added on to his wife's words with an equally sarcastic tone of voice.

Chu Wen-Fei even helped to remind the staff in the shop.

"Young lady, you'd better call a few more people to watch over them and make sure they don't run away. That country bumpkin worked the fields since he was a child, so he might be really strong and beat up one or two of your guys. If they escape, then it'll be hard for you to get this money back," said Chu Wen-Fei as he laughed and shook his head.

The sales assistant listened to him and really called more security guards over. She wasn't letting them go unless they paid up.

"Two useless bums broke something in the store and you dare to run? Hurry up and pay up! If you can't cough up the money, then you'd better put your house down as collateral!" shouted the sales assistant angrily. She looked eat Qiu Mu-Cheng and Ye Fan with disdain and disgust.

So much for thinking they were big clients and from a rich family. That was the only reason why she tried so hard to sell that phoenix headdress to them.

She didn't expect that this woman's husband was just a country bumpkin and just dressed nicely to fool everyone. Now that this woman had knocked a vase over, she deserved it and didn't deserve any pity. That's what they got for coming to a place for the rich even though they weren't rich at all.

"Who is it? Who broke my cloisonne? Who?!"

The shopkeeper came dashing out from his office upstairs when he heard the news.

He was filled with anger and dismay.

He had spent a lot of effort into persuading the main store to let him have this item so that he could make this store look classier.

He had to return this to the main store after three months!

He had just put it on display the day before, and someone broke it today.

When he spotted the shattered pieces on the floor, the shopkeeper felt like his heart had also shattered.

"Mr Shen, you're here. These two are the ones, these two leeches don't have any money or power but they actually dared to come here to pretend to show off. One of them is even a useless bum from the countryside who lives off his wife's family. They're so poor but they actually broke our vase. Mr Shen, the security guards are watching them and we're waiting for your instructions on what to do next," said the sales assistant nastily as she pointed at Ye Fan and Qiu Mu-Cheng.

She looked like she was waiting to claim credit and was hoping that the shopkeeper would praise her.

And just as she expected, Mr Shen instantly became furious when he heard what she said.

"What? You said the ones who broke our vase are two paupers and one of them is even from the countryside? How dare they! Two countryside louses actually have the cheek to come to a high end store like ours?!" shouted Mr Shen angrily. He walked through the crowd and followed the sales assistant's lead.

But when he saw Ye Fan's face, this shopkeeper felt his face twitch and his pupils narrowed. He looked like he had been struck by lightning and just stood there as he said with a hoarse voice, "Mr... Mr Chu?" "Mr Shen, why are you still standing there? These two are just a couple of cheap chickens and they were still dreaming of becoming a phoenix and were eyeing our phoenix headdress. And now they even broke our precious vase! You should quickly get them to compensate us!" hurried the sales assistant.

"Fuck, shut your trap right now!"

But immediately after she had spoken, the shopkeeper slapped her right across the face and she was completely stunned.

"Mr Shen, what are you doing? You should be hitting them, why did you hit me?" The sales assistant clutched her face and started crying from the injustice. Her eyes were both bloodshot.

Everyone else was also stunned by this turn of events.

They were a little confused now.

Could this supposedly country bumpkin couple actually be a pair of big shots?

Otherwise, why else would the shopkeeper of Women's Country be so terrified?

"You stupid thing! Just shut up! Do you want to get slapped again? How dare you simply insult anybody like this! Are you tired of living? Do you want to get me killed?!" The shopkeeper was pale in the face as he shouted at the sales assistant again. She was so scared that she didn't dare to say anymore and just quietly clutched her face without speaking. She was so upset.

After shouting at her, the shopkeeper quickly put a big smile on his face and looked as placatingly as possible. He smiled and walked over to shake Ye Fan's hand.

"Mr Chu, I'm so sorry, my staff didn't realize who you were, so you had to witness such an embarrassing scene. I hope you can be magnanimous and forgive us for this," the shopkeeper apologized as he held his hand out towards Ye Fan.

But before Ye Fan could return the handshake, Chu Wen-Fei took a step forward and held his hand out with a boastful smile. There was a loud slap as his hand gripped the shopkeeper's hand.

"Oho, Mr Shen, you're too kind. Even though your store had a little incident and it did affect my shopping experience, just like you said, I'm magnanimous, so I won't be bothered by such a small matter. You don't have to worry about it."

"But after such a long time, you could still recognize me at once even though the last time we met was at Yunjing Hotel, at the Shen Group directors' banquet. That's not something everyone is capable of doing, and I'm very pleased with you," said Chu Wen-Fei approvingly at the shopkeeper. He smiled and patted the shopkeeper on the shoulder, looking like he was all high and mighty.

But when the shopkeeper, Shen Meng, heard this, he was utterly confused. He looked at this strange person who suddenly popped out from nowhere to shake his hand and had even put on such airs. But he couldn't recall who this person was at all.

Shen Meng then quietly asked quizzically, "Excuse me, you are...?"
