A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 686 Mu-Cheng, Congratulations

Tve already told someone to settle this. Auntie Huan, you just need to pick up Uncle Ming-Ze from the police station later," said Ye Fan slowly.

After replaceing out about Lu Ming-Ze's situation, Ye Fan got someone to make a detailed investigation,.

One of the directors in the company that Lu Ming-Ze worked for had bypassed all the other departments and approved the sale of goods that didn't pass the quality inspection, so the company got into trouble. Lu Ming-Ze didn't even know about this matter.

The director in his company had kept it a secret from him.

As such, Lu Ming-Ze hadn't done anything wrong per se, and it was considered just negligence on his part.

But because he was their legal representative, he had to be responsible when something happened.

So Lu Ming-Ze's issue could be easy to settle, or complicated to resolve at the same time.

If nobody could catch that director who did this, then Lu Ming-Ze would have to be the scapegoat.

But since Ye Fan had intervened, then of course things weren't going to end this way.

After Wu Zhi-Ming found out how Lu Ming-Ze was related to Ye Fan, he even gave Ye Fan a call to explain this whole matter and said that he would release Lu Ming-Ze immediately.

Qiu Huan was instantly overjoyed to hear these words from Ye Fan. She thanked him profusely and there were tears in her eyes.

She didn't know if it was because she was too happy or if her tears from before hadn't dried up yet.

"Fan, is that true? Thank you so much, I'm really so, so grateful," said Qiu Huan with tears in her eyes. Her panic earlier had calmed down after she heard what Ye Fan said.

But Ye Fan only replied, "Auntie Huan, you don't have to be so formal with me. You'd better quickly go and pick him up. If you wait any longer, Uncle Ming-Ze might end up walking back home." "You're right! I'll go right now!" said Qiu Huan in a hurry. She didn't even bother changing and ran out of the house to pick Lu Ming-Ze up.

Outside the police station.

When Qiu Huan got there, a rather exhausted looking middle-aged man was standing outside.

He smiled when he saw Qiu Huan.

He didn't say anything and just walked swiftly towards her.

"Ming-Ze!" Qiu Huan called his name agitatedly and lunged into his arms.

After getting through this crisis, Qiu Huan's tears couldn't stop streaming down her face as she wailed and scolded him, "Lu Ming-Ze, you horrible man! How dare you lie to me!" "Why didn't you tell me that something so big had happened in the company? And you even tried to lie to me? Did you consider my feelings at all?" said Qiu Huan through her tears. Lu Ming-Ze just smiled. "Everything turned out fine, didn't it?"

After this experience, Lu Ming-Ze suddenly realized that earning a lot of money didn't bring happiness.

Happily living the rest of his life with his wife and child was a true bliss.

"By the way, the officer inside told me that I was able to come out so quickly because we had the help of someone. Huan, what's going on? Did you ask someone for help?" Lu Ming-Ze had just been released and didn't know anything.

Qiu Huan nodded. "Ming-Ze, I was about to talk to you about that. We really must thank Fan for this. If not for him, I don't think this matter would blow over so easily. We must be good to them," said Qiu Huan gratefully.

"Fan? Which Fan?" Lu Ming-Ze was puzzled.

"The boy who married into my third brother's family, Ye Fan. Remember you went to their place in Yunzhou to pick Jingjing? I used to think that marrying him was the most unfortunate thing to happen to Mu- Cheng. But it looks like I was wrong and we were all wrong. Ye Fan isn't an ordinary man at all. He's a true dragon of the Qiu family. It's Mu-Cheng greatest fortune to have married him." Qiu Huan's voice was agitated yet reflective. At the end, she shook her head in self-deprecation.

She thought of how she had pitied Ye Fan and even tried to introduce him to a job.

When she thought about it now, she felt her face go red and she was so ashamed of herself.

Those words she said must have been a joke to Ye Fan.

He was someone that even Lei San was polite to, and he could settle such a big problem with just one word.

Why would someone like that need her to get him a job?

"Did you say Ye Fan got me out?" While Qiu Huan was still laughing bitterly at herself, Lu Ming-Ze was stunned to hear Ye Fan's name.

He didn't expect Ye Fan to save him.

He remembered how he had been snobbish towards Qiu Mu-Cheng and family when he went to Yunzhou, and he even disregarded Qiu Mu-Cheng's invitation to her company's opening ceremony. At that time, Lu Ming-Ze thought that he had definitely offended Qiu Mu-Cheng and family.

But when he ran into trouble, he was surprised that the one who came to his rescue would turn out to be Ye Fan.

"Huan, you're right. We must really thank this niece and nephew-in-law of yours. They didn't hold the past against me and saved me from this crisis, and helped our family out of this. I really owe them a lot." Lu Ming-Ze thought of what happened in the past and he was filled with guilt. He just felt that he had let Qiu Mu-Cheng down, and let Ye Fan down even more.

"But Huan, how did they know about my issue?" asked Lu Ming-Ze.

Qiu Huan told him about how Ye Fan had come to Jingzhou to celebrate Lu Wen-Jing's birthday.

"You mean he's in Jingzhou? Where is he? Take me to him! I want to thank him personally! I owe him a thank you," said Lu Ming-Ze as he tugged at Qiu Huan.

But Qiu Huan shook her head. "It's too late, he's gone back to his hometown for Lunar New Year."

What?

"He's already left?"

Ye Fan's departure made Lu Ming-Ze feel even more ashamed of himself.

If others had helped him, they would probably have rushed to claim credit from him.

But Ye Fan was different. After helping to resolve such a big issue, he didn't ask for any favors and just left.

"That's what a real big shot is like. He's so broadminded and magnanimous. I am really nowhere near his level!" Lu Ming-Ze sighed deeply. This was the first time in many years he admired and respected someone so much.

But even though Ye Fan had left, he still had to thank Ye Fan.

Qiu Huan ended up calling Qiu Mu-Cheng.

They didn't know Ye Fan's phone number.

Qiu Mu-Cheng was still in the office when she got their call.

"Auntie Huan? I was about to call you to apologize. I've been so busy with work, so I couldn't celebrate Jingjing's birthday this year, I'm really sorry about that."

But before Qiu Mu-Cheng could continue, Qiu Huan cut her off.

"Mu-Cheng, don't be sorry. Your uncle and I are so grateful to Fan. If not for Fan, our entire family would have been in deep trouble." "Mu-Cheng, congratulations on replaceing such a good husband. I used to feel indignant for you, but now, I'm really happy for you..."
