A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)

Chapter 75 It's All Your Daughter's Fault!

"Mister... Mister... Mister..."

Li Er had felt like he was struck by lightning, when Ye Fan looked over at him. The kingpin of Yunzhou

was stunned, and could only stare at the latter with big bulging eyes.

Li Er was frightened out of his wits.

His mouth was hanging wide open, and his body was trembling. But even though he kept repeating

"Mister" over and over, he was stammering so badly that he could not complete his sentence.

After a long while, Li Er managed to recover his wits. His face crumpled and, in a pleading tone, he

said, "Mr. Chu, I really didn't know it was you?"

"If I had known it was you, I would never have insulted you."

"So you are telling me it was my fault?”

Ye Fan's retort caused Li Er to tremble violently, and his face turned even paler.

"No~"

"It was all my fault! Me and my stupid mouth!"

"I was blind and didn't recognize Mr. Chu~"

As he started to slap himself in the mouth, Li Er looked like he was ready to burst into tears at any

moment.

The other attendees were stunned.

After all, Li Er was one of the leaders of Jiangdong, and the unofficial ruler of Yunzhou city. So how

could they not be shocked, when they saw him acting so respectfully toward a mere server?

What?

Mr. Chu?

Chen Ao's face twitched and turned an ugly shade of green. He was so frightened that he jumped up

from his seat right away.

But Chen Nan was only looking confusedly at Li Er. She had not noticed her father's abnormality.

"Master Er, what are you doing?"

"There is no need for you to panic."

"A person of your status need not apologize to a humble server like him."

"Moreover, he was the one at fault. So he should be the one to apologize!"

Chen Nan looked surprised at Li Er's behavior. And then she turned to glare at Ye Fan. "What are you

just standing there for? Quick, come apologize to Master Er!"

"Do you understand your position? How dare you argue with someone like Master Er?"

"Do you want to die?" Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Chen Nan gave Ye Fan a severe tongue-lashing.

And Li Er almost wet his pants.

"Screw you!"

"Where did this idiot come from? Are you trying to get me killed?"

Li Er turned to scold Chen Nan with a furious expression on his face. He was so mad that he wished he

could just kick the mouthy woman to death.

"Nan-Nan, shut up!"

"Don't be rude!"

Chen Ao's heart tightened when he saw what was going on. Filled with panic and worry, he quick-

stepped over to his daughter and scolded her with a serious expression.

"You disobedient child! How dare you go around insulting people?"

"I have taught you how to conduct yourself in society! Have you forgotten all my lessons?"

Chen Ao was fuming mad and yelled angrily at the top of his voice. Chen Nan was frightened into

stupefaction.

Her face paled and, in an instant, tears appeared in her beautiful eyes.

This was the first time in so many years her father had yelled at her.

Chen Nan was a pampered child. Because she was Chen Ao's daughter, nobody had ever dared to

cause her offence. Because she was still young, she never had the chance to encounter setbacks. And

therefore, she had become very thin-skinned.

Now that her father had scolded her in front of so many people, she could not help but burst into tears.

"Dad, what... what did I do?”

Chen Nan felt aggrieved and asked chokingly, "Why did you scold me?"

But Chen Ao ignored his daughter, pushed her aside and hurried over to Ye Fan.

Mr. Chu, my daughter has failed to recognize you. She is young and ignorant. Please forgive her for

causing you offence." Chen Ao was sweating profusely as he bowed in apology.

Just then, Chen Ao was panicking hard. After all, his subordinate, Sheng Tian, had offended Ye Fan

earlier. And now, his own daughter had made the same mistake. There was no way Chen Ao would not

panic.

He was afraid that Ye Fan would punish his daughter severely in a fit of anger.

One after another, the two kingpins, Chen Ao and Li Er, had apologized most respectfully and fearfully

to Ye Fan. The other attendees in the room were surprised, and they started to look at him differently.

Could it be that this tea server in front of us comes from some terrifyingly powerful family?

Even the King of Jiangdong, Chen Ao, has to show him such respect?

But even after the pair had made their apologies, Ye Fan continued to look grave and unsmiling.

When he turned to Li Er, his gaze was especially cold. The latter almost collapsed in fear, and could not

help thinking that he was about to meet his end.

It looked like Ye Fan was truly angry.

But after a long moment of silence, Ye Fan hmphed coldly and said, "Li Er, learn to watch your mouth."

"The next time I hear you insulting Mu-Cheng, you will get the hell out of Yunzhou!"

After Ye Fan had spoken, the attendees' expressions changed slightly.

Just how powerful is this man!

He wanted to chase Li Er out of Yunzhou with just a word?

Not even Chen Ao could do that!

Was this person just bragging or was he really that powerful?

Many among the attendees could not help feeling curious.

"Yes yes yes. I will learn to watch my mouth. I will not talk nonsense anymore."

"Mr. Chu, please have a seat. I will pour you a drink-"

Ye Fan's warning meant that he had pardoned Li Er, so the latter felt immensely relieved. Li Er wiped

away the sweat on his forehead, and hurriedly helped Ye Fan into a seat. Next, Li Er took the

neighboring seat and poured some tea for Ye Fan.

It was obvious that Li Er had been frightened out of his wits. His hands kept trembling as he poured the

tea.

Just then, Chen Ao noticed that Ye Fan was wearing the uniform of a restaurant server. So he asked in

curiosity. "Mr. Chu, didn't you just leave? Why did you return suddenly? And why were you working as

a server?"

Chen Ao wanted to know why Ye Fan had sneaked back into the restaurant to serve tea.

Ye Fan laughed lightly. "Don't ask me that. Mr. Chen, you will have to ask your precious daughter.”

"I only borrowed two hundred. I didn't say I would not pay you back. But Master Ao, your daughter

shanghaied me into becoming a laborer here."

"Mm?" When Chen Ao heard this, his face turned an ugly shade of green. He turned to look at his

daughter and yelled, "What is going on?"

"Did you ask Mr. Chu to come work as a tea server?"

Chen Nan bowed her head. She knew she had caused a huge problem. In the face of Chen Ao's

interrogation, she could only nod her head fearfully.

"How dare you!" "How dare you make Mr. Chu do such menial work?"

Chen Ao blew his top and smacked the table as he stood up. He roared angrily at his daughter, and

frightened her so much that she took a few steps back. And her head bowed even lower, as if she was

afraid of getting hit by her father.

"Mr. Chen, how did you bring up your daughter?"

"If I had not recognized Mr. Chu, both of us could be in serious trouble now. Can you take responsibility

for that?" Li Er was also fuming mad. If Chen Nan were not Chen Ao's daughter, he would have

slapped the girl already.

If she had not asked Ye Fan to serve tea, Li Er would not have offended him or insulted his wife.

Because of Chen Ao's daughter, Li Er had almost died today. How could he not be mad at her?

"Mr. Chen, I think you had better give your daughter away. Otherwise, she might get

you and other people killed one of these days."

Li Er hmphed angrily, and Chen Nan's complexion turned even paler.
