A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) -
Chapter 495 Everyone Has Gathered
Guo Ya-Wen, Lei Dong-Bao, and Meng Han's faces instantly turned dark as they asked quizzically.
They were just feeling an immense sense of superiority that Ye Fan and Xu Li wouldn't be able to board the cruise ship and watch the fighting match, but they managed to enter.
Also, Ye Fan and Xu Lei were sitting one row ahead of them, so they had to sit right behind them.
Guo Ya-Wen clearly found it unacceptable and felt outdone by them!
Their previous sense of superiority was long gone!
But Guo Ya-Wen and the others didn't think that Ye Fan and Xu Lei were capable of obtaining tickets for the match.
So they assumed Ye Fan and Xu Li must have snuck their way in as they had preconceptions about them.
"Lei, are you insane? Do you know what event this is? Almost all the rich and powerful of Yanjing are here today. Didn't you see the thousands of people standing guard outside the lake to seal it off? No one is permitted to enter for a hundred meters. How could you sneak into an event like this? Someone is bound to check our tickets later. Why don't both of you run before anyone replaces out? Or else, you will be in big trouble," persuaded Meng Han worriedly in a hushed voice.
Meng Han attempted to convince them to leave before they were caught.
"Oh yes, don't go yet. Maybe Wenwen still has those tickets. Let me ask her," said Meng Han when she recalled Guo Ya-Wen. Then she turned to ask Lei Dong-Bao and Guo Ya-Wen about whether they had extra tickets.
Since they were classmates, they should help each other.
Guo Ya-Wen turned to sneer coldly instead, "Is she begging me now? Only now does she consider me her classmate. Wasn't she the one who defended her lover boy by saying that I framed him?" "Wenwen, don't be angry. Ye Fan was at fault earlier on, and Lei wasn't to blame. Can you replace some way to get Lei a ticket? You can just forget about Ye Fan," persuaded Meng Han again.
But Guo Ya-Wen shook her head and said, "It's too late. My husband already threw the two tickets into Yanqi Lake. Why don't you ask Ye Fan to dive into the lake and replace them, Lei? He might just get lucky." Guo Ya-Wen calmly spoke as she mocked them and treated only Ye Fan and Xu Lei with contempt.
Ye Fan and Xu Lei were incapable and didn't even know how to keep their friends.
If they showed Guo Ya-Wen's husband some respect as Meng Han did, Guo Ya-Wen would have helped those earthworms from the countryside with her connections on account of her friendship with Xu Lei. But sadly, both of them were obtuse and didn't know how to forge ties with them, so
Guo Ya-Wen couldn't be bothered to help them.
"Meng Han, it's okay. Don't worry about us," Xu Lei comforted Meng Han while she ignored Guo Ya-Wen's harsh words.
"What do you mean, it's okay?" interrupted Guo Ya-Wen as she instantly laughed before Meng Han could reply Xu Lei, "Lei, a girl from a small town like you probably has no clue about important events in this big city. This place is full of wealthy and influential folks, and countless giants have gathered here today. If nobodies like you get caught for sneaking in, you can count yourself lucky if you just get chased out. What if you get thrown into the lake as fish feed? You must know your limits and understand how important this event is."
Although Guo Ya-Wen sounded like she was concerned, she was mocking Ye Fan and Xu Lei fortheir recklessness.
Then Ye Fan came out of his silence to shake his head and said calmly, "Miss Guo, there's nothing for you to worry about. It's just two back row tickets. I can still get hold of them if I wanted to."
Ye Fan took out the tickets that Xue Ren-Yang gave him earlier and waved them in front of Guo Ya-Wen and the others.
"Do you suspect that my tickets are fake? Don't worry, I will get the staff to check them now," said Ye Fan deeply before he waved an employee over to check his tickets.
They were undoubtedly genuine tickets.
At this stage, there was nothing else Guo Ya-Wen and the others could say.
Their faces flushed crimson from embarrassment.
After all, they had just ridiculed them and told them to fish the tickets out of Yanqi Lake earlier on.
In the end, they had tickets and better seats than them.
Guo Ya-Wen was undoubtedly infuriated.
After Guo Ya-Wen sat back down, she seethed with anger.
"Darn, are they serious? What does the organizer do for a living? How could they sell tickets to the likes of them? I thought ordinary people couldn't access this event?" cursed Guo Ya-Wen. She felt that it lowered her status to attend an event with a loser like Ye Fan.
"Lei, how did you get these tickets? I thought..." asked Meng Han quizzically as she looked at Xu Lei. She was clearly shocked too.
Xu Lei smiled and replied, "Fan got them for us."
"Fan? Did he get them for you? You must be kidding!" said Meng Han perplexedly.
Guo Ya-Wen and Lei Dong-Bao shook their heads in disdain as well.
"Look!" 'The fighting match is starting."
"The big shots have entered the arena!"
The arena went into a furor instantly.
Everyone turned their eyes eagerly to the center of the arena where the wealthy and influential people of Yanjing had appeared. The audience started talking to one after another in excitement. Meng Han and the others undoubtedly turned to look as well when they caught the commotion.
"Oh my, is that for real? I know that man. I saw him on TV before. He's the head of the Zhao family in Yanjing, Zhao Si," said Meng Han delightedly as she pointed to an old man in the distance. "Hanhan, be careful with your words. Do you want to die?"
But Guo Ya-Wen and Lei Dong-Bao turned pale and warned Meng Han anxiously when they heard her.
"How can you call Mr Zhao by his nickname? Watch your tongue if you don't want to attract trouble, okay? If anyone caught you calling Mr Zhao by his nickname and told the Zhao family about it, you would probably die," reprimanded Guo Ya-Wen.
Meng Han was so startled that she shivered as though Guo Ya-Wen had poured a bucket of cold water over her. In an instant, she didn't dare to utter a word.
There was a yawning chasm between the commoners and Yanjing's elite.
She would probably invite death if she misspoke.
Then more and more rich and powerful entered the center of the arena.
The audience started to gossip one after another. They could undoubtedly impress their friends if they could recognize any of those big shots.
"Did the head of the Lin Family, Lin Feng, come too?" "Lin Pharmaceuticals is a giant in the
Chinese medicine trade!"
"I heard that the Lin family controls over a third of the Chinese medical trade market in the country!"
"Darn, it's the Xue family!"
"Isn't that the previous head of the Xue family, Xue Ren-Yang?"
"They are the leader of the three up and coming families in Yanjing!"
"Didn't he retire? They even changed the family head."
"Why did he come personally today?"
"Stop bullshitting."
"The leader of the three up and coming families?"
"The Xue family is on the verge of collapse." "Didn't you see how everyone ignored Old Master Xue when he appeared?"
"All of them are avoiding the Xue family like the plague."
"Oh my god, you're right!"
"What happened to the Xue family?"
"Did they offend a big shot?"
