A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 402 Breathe Freely Again

Wu Yong's eyes were arrogant and his voice was aggressive as he shouted back at Li Xue-Qi.

That high and mighty tone of voice exuded nothing but audacity and dominance.

His words were haughty and carried authority as it filled the hall.

These words were enough to make Li Xue-Qi's face pale. Her eyes were filled with shock and she started trembling from anger.

Qiu Mu-Ying and her family just watched on gleefully and were happy to see the other party suffer.

"Qiu Mu-Cheng, Qiu Mu-Cheng, even the daughter of the Li family can't save you today. Just wait to embarrass yourselves," laughed Qiu Mu-Ying to herself. "And what if you add me to the mix?"

As Li Xue-Qi was fuming quietly, another cold and authoritative voice rang out from the among the crowd.

A fairly handsome man had walked out.

He asked Wu Yong this question without any expression on his face.

This man was the young master of the Wang family in Haozhou, Wang Yucheng!

Wu Yong frowned and a stern look covered his handsome face.

Wu Yong was clearly more wary of Wang Yuchen.

After all, Wang Yuchen was of higher standing than Li Xue-Qi. He was the true eldest son of the Wang family in Haozhou and was the legal heir to the Wang family now.

"Yuchen, are you really going to do this? For the sake of the woman of a useless bum? For a puny little Mufan Real Estate?" Wu Yong asked Wang Yuchen coldly with a grim look on his face.

Wang Yuchen just laughed. "Young Master Wu, I'd just like to advise you on one thing. Don't ever look down on anybody or

anything."

"it's just like the icebergs that you see in the ocean. You might just a see a few meters sticking out of the water, but that's just the tip of the iceberg!"

"So Young Master Wu, if you don't want to regret this, please release Miss Qiu."

Wu Yong immediately chortled. "Wang Yuchen, I don't need you to teach me what to do."

"As for you, I do admit that the Wang family is powerful in Jiangdong and they are able to cover Haozhou with just one hand. But this is Yunzhou, not Haozhou! Even if you have a powerful background and high status, that's only valid in Haozhou. You're in my territory and you want me to actually give in and let her go? I'm sorry, but you're not enough to make me do this!"

"And what if you add me in as well?" Another cold voice rang out after Wu Yong finished speaking.

Lei Ao-Ting put his cup down and walked over from his table.

He stood with his hands behind his back and his cold eyes stared fearlessly at Wu Yong like they were daggers.

"This...this is..."

"The young master of the Lei family in Jingzhou, Lei Ao-Ting!"

The crowd immediately went into an uproar when Lei Ao-Ting walked out.

What?

The Lei family? Their young master?

"Shit...who are these people at this event?!" Wang Lin was about to pee his pants after he heard what the crowd was murmuring about.

He thought he was here to deal with a tiny company that had just opened for business and the wife of a useless live-in son-in-law.

But now Wang Lin realized that his victims weren't squishy persimmons but a wasp nest.

The daughter of the Li family, the young master of the Wang family, and now even the son of the Lei family in Jingzhou had appeared.

Wang Lin couldn't afford to offend any of them at all.

He couldn't help but glance at Qiu Mu-Cheng.

What sort of background did this Qiu Mu-Cheng and Mufan Real Estate have?

This was just an opening ceremony, but it had attracted guests from three powerful families of Jiangdong, and now they were all standing up to Wu Yong for her sake.

But this wasn't the time to think about all this. Wang Lin could tell that things were getting serious and might spin out of control, so he quickly tugged at Wu Yong. "Young Master, I think we should forget it.

That's the Lei family of Jingzhou, the second most powerful family in Jiangdong. Even if your father were here, he wouldn't dare to offend this family either. Besides, the Li family and Wang family have come out to speak on this company's behalf, so let's just let this go on their account?" Wang Lin quietly tried to persuade Wu Yong as his face paled and his heart was filled with fear.

After all, Wang Lin and Wu Yong were the ones who were being unreasonable in the first place. It was fine if the other party were nobodies and they could just arrest them today and release them later without any trouble. But now these three powerful families were on Mufan Real Estate's side, so things were very different now.

Wang Lin had started to panic and was ready to retreat.

He was afraid of blowing things out of proportion.

But Wu Yong ignored Wang Lin's words and kept a stern face on as he glared unhappily at Lei Ao-Ting. After a while, Wu

Yong started laughing and turned to the silent Qiu Mu-Cheng.

"Hahaha, Miss Qiu, you're really something! In order to save your skin, the daughter of the Li family, the son of the Wang family and the young master of the Lei family have all stood up for you. Is the daughter of the Chen family in Jianghai going to stand up for you too?" Wu Yong shook his head and laughed, but that cold laughter was extremely sinister as well.

After he was done laughing, Wu Yong slammed the table and knocked several glasses off the table. His expression immediately became cold as angry words started spewing from his mouth.

"But even if that's the case, all of you added up together will not be enough to make me give in! I must take these people away today. Even if the gods come down now, they will not be able to salvage this situation. Take them away!"

Wu Yong's sinister and furious voice echoed loudly in the lobby.

Wang Lin's subordinates didn't hesitate any longer and handcuffed Qiu Mu-Cheng as they also arrested the management staff of Mufan Real Estate.

"Let go!"

"You bastards!"

"How can you simply arrest people like that?!"

There was an uproar in the office lobby.

The whole company was in chaos.

Some were howling, some were terrified, and some even wanted to jump out of the windows to escape.

Han Li and Qiu Lei hid in a corner and were too afraid to come out.

The passersby were all pointing fingers at the company.

Qiu Mu-Ying and her family were even more gleeful at the sight of this. Mufan Real Estate was still reveling in glory a few minutes ago, and now they were a mess. All the glory they were basking in was gone, and the Qiu family felt so good now.

They felt like they could breathe freely again!

The stuffy feeling they had inside earlier was gone!

"Mu-Cheng, what do you think? That's what happens when you try to fight me, or the Qius! Perhaps you might win for a while, but the Qiu family and myself will have the last laugh! After you've gone to the police station, Qiushui Logistics will continue with our banquet, while Mufan Real Estate will fail and your reputation will go down the drain!" laughed Qiu Mu-Ying maniacally as she watched the officers lead Qiu Mu-Cheng away.

"HAHA! Yingying is right! You had your moment of glory when the Lei family and the Wang family came to congratulate you and your family stole our limelight. But so what? It's nothing but smoke and ashes now!"

"Qiu Mu-Cheng, you've built up so much for yourself and even welcomed esteemed guests to your party. But in the end? Everything has fallen apart! HAHAHA!"

The Qiu family continued to fan the flames and laughed heartily. Their laughter felt like knives that stabbed deeply into Qiu Mu-Cheng's heart.

They were so gleeful, so smug and so arrogant!
