A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) -
Chapter 546 Make Good Use of Tomorrow Night
After Shen Fei taught them a good lesson, Yuan Yuan and Situ Feng behaved themselves.
They climbed up from the floor and didn't dare to say anymore.
Ye Fan didn't bother himself with them and just got Qiu Mu-Cheng to cooperate with the staff that Shen Fei brought so that they could take all the necessary measurements.
"Young Master Shen, are you trying to give me something again? Please don't do that. It was already too much for us to accept that ring the last time. If you give us something again, then I don't think Ye Fan and I could ever repay you for it in our lifetime."
After Shen Fei appeared, Qiu Mu-Cheng got it all figured out.
These people were invited here by Shen Fei.
Only someone like Shen Fei would be able to get the manager of Versace to come all the way here.
"Don't say that, Mu-Cheng. Young Master Shen is so sincere, so how could you refuse him?"
Han Li's eyes lit up instantly.
She thought that this was a good sign.
Since Shen Fei was here personally to tailor a dress for her daughter, then it meant that he was interested in her.
If her daughter could marry a man like Shen Fei, then their family was going to shoot up in status!
Han Li became even more excited and happy.
She quickly got up and brought some tea over for Shen Fei.
"Young Master Shen, have some tea! This is high grade Maojian tea that costs $1,000 per 500 grams! I bought it just for you."
Han Li had bought this tea quite a long time back and she had bought it because of Ye Fan. She thought that Ye Fan knew Han Dong-Min and could use this connection to get herself a cushy job in the civil service.
But of course, that didn't work out in the end.
But she continued to keep this Maojian tea, and every time there was an important guest in the house, Han Li would make some to entertain them.
She always said the same thing to them too.
"Thanks, Auntie."
Shen Fei was getting rather thirsty. He took the cup from Han Li and was about to drink it when he noticed that Ye Fan's cup was empty.
Shen Fei immediately smiled and held the cup out to Ye Fan. "Brother Fan, you can have this cup."
"What? Young Master Shen, why are you giving it to him? I made this cup just for you. He's just a useless idiot, so he's not worthy of such tea!" Han Li snatched the cup back and refused to let Ye Fan drink a single drop.
"Mum, that's enough! It's just a cup of tea! You could always just make another cup! Did you have to snatch it back like this?" Qiu Mu-Chen was instantly annoyed and felt so embarrassed. She didn't know how she had such a strange mother.
"What do you mean by that? This is high grade Maojian tea! It's only right for Young Master Shen to drink it since he's given you so many things and even hired a designer to tailor a dress and jewelry for you. Ye Fan is just a useless fellow, so what right does he have to drink this? You've been married three years but he's never given you anything. He's even worse than a stranger. If I were you, I would kick this trash aside and go for Young Master Shen by now."
"Oh no no don't say that!" Shen Fei immediately spat out all his tea when Han Li said this and he was nearly about to cry from fright.
He started cursing Han Li for trying to get him into trouble.
If this woman weren't Ye Fan's mother-in-law, Shen Fei would have kicked her by now.
Who was Ye Fan?
He was someone that Li Er of Yunzhou and Chen Ao of Jianghai viewed as their leader, and he was of incredible standing.
How could he covet Ye Fan's wife?
That was as good as courting death!
And sure enough, Shen Fei could already feel Ye Fan's glare that was getting colder and colder.
Shen Fei quickly tried to explain, "Auntie, it's ok to eat the wrong thing but it's not ok to say the wrong thing. Miss Qiu is so pretty and so intelligent, so an ordinary fellow like me is not worthy of Miss Qiu at all." "Also, Miss Qiu, don't misunderstand. I have a friend whose figure is about the same as yours and I want to tailor a dress for her as a surprise. That's why I've had to come here and I'll be making the dress according to your measurements."
"Since we're all done here, we should be heading off too. Brother Fan, Miss Qiu, if you need anything, just give me a call."
Ye Fan had instructed Shen Fei to keep this whole matter a secret.
So Shen Fei had already thought of what to say before coming, and he was able to bluff his way through.
"Young Master Shen, are you just leaving like that? What's the hurry? Since you've come all the way here, get Mu-Cheng to watch a movie before going back or something, there's still time!" Han Li continued to shout after Shen Fei even though he had already gone downstairs.
The only person in Yunzhou who would still want her married daughter to go out on a date with other men was probably Han Li.
"Oho, Mu-Cheng, I thought your husband was capable enough to get someone from Versace to tailor clothing for you. So it's Young Master Shen who got these people here. A useless coward is a useless coward after all. Also, that dress isn't actually for you, so you were happy for nothing."
After realizing what was going on, Yuan Yuan's jealousy and envy for Qiu Mu-Cheng disappeared and she felt much better about herself now.
"Miss Yuan, who called these people over and whom the dress is for is none of your concern. You'd better take care of your husband's job first," replied Ye Fan calmly.
Yuan Yuan's expression immediately turned nasty.
"Humph! You're jobless too, aren't you? How dare you look down on my husband?
Did you think I'd be scared of you just because you have the backing of Young Master Shen? Since you're so useless, even if you managed to gain the favor of a big shot like that, he probably just treats you as one of his lackeys," said Yuan Yuan as she scoffed coldly.
She turned towards Qiu Mu-Cheng and said, "Mu-Cheng, your live-in husband is a useless coward, but his tongue is fairly sharp. Why do you bother keeping him around?"
Yuan Yuan was so annoyed as she said these words. Then she passed Qiu Mu-Cheng an invitation card.
"Mu-Cheng, this is the invitation card to the class gathering happening tomorrow night. It's at a five-star hotel, Qianxilong Hotel. You don't have to worry about the money since our class monitor, Fan Zhongxian, is picking up the tab. Also, the class monitor emphasized that we must get you to go for tomorrow night's gathering. By the way, the class monitor is still single." Yuan Yuan winked at Qiu Mu-Cheng and laughed meaningfully.
Qiu Mu-Cheng just looked at her strangely, "So what if he single? What has that got to do with me?"
"Mu-Cheng, just keep pretending. You'd know tomorrow night whether it has anything to do with you," Yuan Yuan smiled back.
After that, Yuan Yuan also left.
But Han Li could understand what Yuan Yuan was driving at and kept asking Yuan Yuan about Fan Zhongxian.
What sort of background did he have? What did he work as? What car did he drive?
"Mu-Cheng, I think Young Master Shen is a little too lofty for us, but we have a chance with this Fan Zhongxian. Qianxilong Hotel is a five-star hotel but your class monitor is picking up the tab, so he must be filthy rich. You must make good use of the class gathering tomorrow night."
