A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 645 Haiyuan Restaurant

What?

"For Mu-Cheng?"

Su Qian was equally surprised.

Even Ma Ming-Bo just stared at these people with wide eyes.

"An invitation card from Master Er? Are you guys sure you didn't make a mistake?" Ma Ming-Bo couldn't help but ask because he was so puzzled by this.

It wasn't that Ma Ming-Bo looked down on Qiu Mu-Cheng, but the problem was even someone like himself didn't receive this sort of special treatment.

Li Er actually specifically wanted to invite Qiu Mu-Cheng and sent someone to bring the invitation card to her.

Not even Ma Ming-Bo was eligible to be treated like that.

He figured that only someone at his father's level would get this sort of treatment.

But Qiu Mu-Cheng was just the CEO of a small company. She was an outstanding young lady among ordinary folk, but she was a small fry compared to those really rich and powerful people.

As such, Ma Ming-Bo didn't think someone like Qiu Mu-Cheng would get a personal invitation from Li Er like this.

"But of course! Did you think we would get Master Er's name wrong?" the men standing in front of the door replied in a cold and unhappy voice when they heard how Ma Ming-Bo doubted them. Then they asked for Qiu Mu-Cheng again.

This time, Qiu Mu-Cheng slowly walked forward.

"I...I am."

Qiu Mu-Cheng was clearly surprised and she looked rather confused.

She had no idea what on earth was going on.

Even after the men who had brought the invitation card to the house had left, Qiu Mu-Cheng remained stunned and continued to stand there as she held the black invitation card with gold embossed letters. "Mu-Cheng, do you know Master Er?" asked Su Qian in disbelief.

Qiu Mu-Cheng immediately shook her head.

Li Er was like an emperor within Yunzhou.

Qiu Mu-Cheng was just an ordinary citizen in the city, so how would she get to know a big shot like that?

"Since you don't know him, then this invitation card must be a fake. We're small fry compared to the Li family, so how could he lower himself to actually deliver an invitation card here?" said Su Qian as she shook her head.

"No, this is not a fake ticket. This is real! Also, this ticket is for the rarest supreme category of seats! Only 18 people have tickets to sit in this category. My father, Chen Ao of Jianghai and Lei San of Jingzhou have tickets to these seats. Miss Qiu, you actually managed to get an invitation to these seats - you're really more than meets the eye!" said Ma Ming-Bo in a shocked voice.

Ma Ming-Bo's words were like a huge rock falling into the sea. Su Qian and Qiu Mu-Cheng were both incredibly shaken.

Su Qian started looking weirdly at Qiu Mu-Cheng. "Mu-Cheng, you'd better answer me honestly. Do you secretly know the Li family?"

Qiu Mu-Cheng continued to shake her head. "No, I don't. The only interaction I've ever had with that family was during the company's opening ceremony and I met the daughter of the Li family just that once. Besides, she came probably because the mayor was there, so we don't know each other."

Qiu Mu-Cheng was equally confused and couldn't figure out why Li Er would give her an invitation card.

"Alright, alright, if you can't figure it out it doesn't matter. Since this ticket is real, then we'd better get to Haiyuan Restaurant now. The banquet is going to start soon."

Su Qian didn't want to waste unnecessary time on such unimportant things, so she didn't continue probing and just hurried Qiu Mu-Cheng along to get changed and go to Haiyuan Restaurant with them. This time, Qiu Mu-Cheng didn't refuse to go.

After all, Li Er had sent someone to deliver the invitation personally. If she didn't go, then that would be disrespectful to Master Er.

The Li family was powerful and Qiu Mu-Cheng didn't dare to offend them.

Besides, Qiu Mu-Cheng wanted to know why Li Er would invite her to this banquet for no apparent reason.

She figured that she would get the answer if she went for it.

While Qiu Mu-Cheng, Su Qian and Ma Ming-Bo were headed for Haiyuan Restaurant.

Ye Fan was still standing proudly atop the peak of Mount Yunding.

A mist swirled above Yunwu Lake below.

Li Er was standing behind him with a slight bow.

"Mr Chu, as per your instructions, that invitation card has been sent personally to Miss Qiu."

Ye Fan nodded, then waved his hand to dismiss Li Er.

Ye Fan stood at the top of the mountain by himself.

The cold wind blew Ye Fan's fringe gently.

His lips parted to murmur, "Mu-Cheng, it won't be long. At the banquet later, you will finally know what sort of existence your man really is! You will also understand that everything I said before wasn't bragging, but the truth. You will also know today whether everything that I have achieved was because I relied on others or because I relied on myself!"

BOOM...

Ye Fan's low words rumbled in the air.

And then they were smashed to bits by the oncoming wind.

After standing at the peak by himself for a long time, a beautiful young lady called out to him in a cheery voice.

"Fan, it's time to go! We ought to make our way to the banquet!"

Chen Nan was in a plain but elegant dress and her hair cascaded down her shoulders in waves.

Chen Nan looked absolutely stunning in this outfit.

Men were willing to die for their best friends, and women were willing to look their prettiest for the man they loved!

Since she was going to attend the Feast of the Sea and Sky with the Fan she admired the most, Chen Nan decided to doll herself up today.

Chen Nan stood prettily as she called out to that figure in front of her with a bright smile.

Ye Fan kept his back facing her and after a short moment of silence, he replied, "Okay!"

There was an endless number of luxury cars outside Haiyuan Restaurant.

There was a brand new 800 meter red carpet too.

Waitresses stood along both sides of the red carpet in red cheongsams and braved the cold. Their long hair was tied up and their makeup was flawless as they used their charming smiles and respectful gestures to welcome all the big shots from all over Jiangdong.

The street right in front of Haiyuan Restaurant was closed off.

No other cars besides those coming for the banquet were allowed to drive in.

On top of that, in order to guarantee the safety of all banquet attendees, Li Er arranged for hundreds of bodyguards to stand on guard in the vicinity and be on standby.

Li Er also got the police department to help to maintain order in the nearby areas.

After all, everyone gathered in Haiyuan Restaurant today were the most powerful people of each city within Jiangdong.

You could say that the most powerful people were all now concentrated within Yunzhou.

If anything happened in this city, then all the big shots of the province were going to perish at one shot. Jiangdong would most

certainly be in turmoil if that happened.

As such, security measures were extremely important!

Moreover, this was Li Er's first time hosting such an important event, so he couldn't afford any slipups.

Otherwise, if he messed up the banquet, Li Er was certain that Ye Fan would slaughter him on the spot in a fit of rage!
