A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) -
Chapter 530 Trouble Is Here
"Get lost! Go as far away as possible! Bunch of assholes who only know how to take without giving!" Su Qian was still yelling away even though Qiu Mu-Qi and Wang Sheng-Tian had already left. "Mu-Cheng, your cousin is really ridiculous. He wants to buy a $300 million piece of land for just $100 million? That's as good as just snatching it from you! He thinks you're still a pushover!" Su Qian grumbled on Qiu Mu-Cheng's behalf as she thought of what happened earlier and was still angry about it.
But Qiu Mu-Cheng remained calm.
She poured herself a cup of wine and drank it down.
"He's just trying to use someone powerful to bully me. He was hoping to use Shuntian Group's powerful background to make me give in. Moreover, after I fell out with the Qius, Qiushui Logistics suffered and investigation and Grandpa fell ill, so he must hate me to the core. He's just making use of Shuntian Group to pressurize me." Qiu Mu-Cheng shook her head and spoke calmly, but these calm words sounded so sad and self-deprecating.
She thought that the Qiu family would learn their lesson and behave themselves.
But she was wrong.
After dealing with one Qiu Mu-Ying, she had to deal with a Qiu Mu-Qi.
"Grandpa, Grandpa, why do you want to make my life so miserable?" Qiu Mu-Cheng laughed bitterly and just poured herself another glass.
"Exactly. The Qiu family nearly collapsed after that opening ceremony, and your uncle and others were even thrown into jail."
"I thought that the Qiu family would really collapse this time. But Qiu Mu-Qi came back and actually managed to revive the Qius' businesses singlehandedly. In the past, the Qiu family had the help of Hongqi Group. Now they have Shuntian Group. With these backers around, your cousin is going to be able to do whatever he wants."
Su Qian couldn't help but sigh when she thought about the huge ups and downs that the Qiu family went through recently.
"I have to say that this Qiu Mu-Qi is quite formidable. He knew that he couldn't possibly save the Qiu family by his own strength even after returning to China. So he made use of his connections and actually got his classmate to set up a branch office in Yunzhou. This Shuntian Industries is mainly into real estate, and it's obvious that this is a direct attack on you, Mu-Cheng. We're going to face tough times ahead," said Su Qian worriedly.
Su Qian had heard all about how Qiu Mu-Cheng had gained the favor of Mayor Wu and he had even given her a pair of couplets personally on the day of the opening ceremony.
But if Mufan Real Estate and Shuntian Group ended up clashing head on, it was hard to say which side Mayor Wu would be on.
To Su Qian, Qiu Mu-Cheng's company was doing well in Yunzhou only because Mayor Wu favored the company.
Without the help of Mayor Wu, there was no way Mufan Real Estate could compete with a much more powerful corporation like Shuntian Group.
"It'll be fine. We're running a legal business and we don't have to be afraid of anyone. I don't think they'd really dare to do anything over the line in broad daylight."
Qiu Mu-Cheng clenched her fists and looked like she wasn't going to admit defeat.
Previously when Qiu Mu-Ying joined hands with Hongqi Group, she didn't succeed in bringing Qiu Mu-Cheng down.
Qiu Mu-Cheng didn't think Qiu Mu-Qi and Shuntian Industries could bring her down either.
She had already gone through the toughest part.
So now, Qiu Mu-Cheng wasn't afraid anymore.
"Oh no! It's already past 12 noon. Ye Fan must be so anxious, I said I'd pick him up from the airport." Qiu Mu-Cheng looked at her watch and suddenly remembered that Ye Fan was returning today. She didn't care about eating and wanted to leave.
Su Qian immediately pulled her right back. "Look at how anxious you are. I thought something terrible had happened."
"It's just that country bumpkin husband of yours is coming back, right? He's got legs, he can get home himself. Why bother picking him up yourself? Besides, he reached Jianghai in the morning, right? It's already past 12 so he's probably already home and doesn't need you to pick him. You can just sit here and eat and drink with me," grinned Su Qian.
"What? Qianqian, you remembered this? Why didn't you remind me?" said Qiu Mu-Cheng angrily.
Even if Ye Fan didn't say anything about her standing him up, he would definitely be disappointed.
"Why should I remind you? Ye Fan is just a useless bum, why should my Mu-Cheng bother to pick him up?"
Su Qian clearly remembered this matter and purposely didn't remind Qiu Mu-Cheng about it.
"You...I'll deal with you later!"
Qiu Mu-Cheng couldn't be bothered with Su Qian. She picked up her bag to leave and was going to call Ye Fan to explain things to him. Pak...
But before Qiu Mu-Cheng reached the door, someone pushed it open from outside.
A burly man stank of alcohol and couldn't even walk steadily as he came in holding a bottle of wine.
"Xiaofang, come and drink with me, come...after we're done, then I'm going to give you an enjoyable time..." the burly man started talking dirty.
Su Qian pinched her nose and looked disgusted. "Hey, big guy, you've walked into the wrong room. There's no Xiaofang here, go elsewhere." "Hmm? Wrong...wrong room?"
The burly man walked unsteadily and the stench of alcohol on him was terrible. He couldn't even talk properly.
He opened his eyes and looked at Qiu Mu-Cheng and Su Qian.
He was clearly taken by Qiu Mu-Cheng's beauty after seeing her.
A lecherous smile appeared on his face. "I...I did walk into the wrong room. But...but you girls look...prettierthan Xiaofang.
Come...come...ladies, drink with me..."
The man laughed and stretched his hand out to pull Qiu Mu-Cheng into his arms.
"Let go! If you don't let go, I'm calling the cops!"
Qiu Mu-Cheng kept struggling but that drunk man refused to let go.
PIANG!
Su Qian was frantic and smashed a bottle of wine on the drunk man's head.
There was a smashing sound as the bottle broke into pieces. The liquor and his blood started flowing down his body.
This sudden attack made the drunk man shiver and sober up a little.
He touched his face and found blood on his hand.
"You...you dare...to hit me?" said the man in disbelief.
Su Qian picked up another bottle from the table and looked ready to attack. "Get lost! If you don't get lost, I'll hit you again! Get out!"
After Su Qian shrieked at him, the drunk man actually left. Nobody knew if he was really frightened of being hit or afraid that he might die from excessive blood loss. "You stupid bitches, just...just you wait!
Since you dare to hurt me...then you can forget about leaving Haiyuan Restaurant..."
The man left them with these threatening words and clutched his head as he left.
Su Qian was still trembling in fear after the drunk man left. She had been pretty traumatized.
Qiu Mu-Cheng snapped out of her fright faster and dragged Su Qian out of the room. "Qianqian, let's quickly leave this place."
