Chapter 38 The Presentation Is Important
In front of the Yunjing Hotel.
Among the multitude of luxury cars, Shen Fei and his executives were standing there, bowed at the
waist.
With their arms linked together, Ye Fan crossed the red carpet with Qiu Mu-Cheng. A gentle breeze
stirred and thetter''s hair fluttered about erratically. Meanwhile, the respectful greetings continued to
apany the power couple as they made their way toward the main doors.
With the beauty in his arm, Ye Fan walked up the steps. At that moment, the husband and wife pair
looked like an emperor and his queen. They were like the sun and moon, surrounded by their attendant
stars. Everyone''s attention was focused on them. With every step they took, the female greeters on
both sides of the carpet would bow in greeting. All at once, the sounds of the employees'' greetings
rose and fell around them like waves at sea.
Behind the power couple, the assembled Qius were in a daze and the overwhelming shock they felt
could be seen in their eyes.
They could not believe their eyes. Their hitherto lowly live-in son-inw, Ye Fan, was radiating such
splendor at that moment.
His towering aura of nobility was dazzling as the sun. Amidst the sounds of Shen Fei and the hotel
employees paying him homage, Ye Fan''s radiance was so bright that nobody could look directly at him.
At the same time, Qiu Mu-Cheng, who had been following Ye Fan, was also bathed in the light of
splendor. Her emotions burned brightly in her exquisite eyes, and her smile was so dazzling that it
brought to mind the blooming of flowers in spring.
Just then, as Qiu Mu-Cheng followed Ye Fan, she could feel the awe from the multitude gazing at her.
For a brief moment, she felt as if she was holding the world in her hand.
"How...How could it be him?"
"How could it be them?" "That Ye Fan is just a useless piece of trash. A live-in son-inw. He has no
redeeming feature at all, so why would Mr. Shen treat him with such respect?”
The Qius were all confused. Meanwhile, Qiu Mu-Ying was staring at the couple with bloodshot eyes, as
jealousy and hatred raged within her.
And Master Qiu was so stunned that he stayed rooted to the spot, as his face twitched uncontrobly.
"How...how could it be him?"
"Could it be that our family has underestimated this son-inw?"
"Could it be that he''s actually the hidden dragon of the Ye family?"
Master Qiu''s face was flushed due to the shock he had just gone through and his heart almost skipped
a beat.
The inside of Yunjing Hotel was opulent.
A pair of stewardesses, chosen for their exquisite looks and excellent figures, had been assigned to
stand at every turn of the passageway. And the gorgeous cheongsams they were wearing helped to
entuate theirportment.
Along the way, Qiu Mu-Cheng looked self-conscious, as it was her first time experiencing such
luxurious treatment. Due to her nervousness, she clutched tightly at Ye Fan with her petite hand and
refused to let go. At that moment, she finally understood the bliss of having a reliable man beside her.
As for Ye Fan, he maintained a calm demeanor throughout the whole experience, as if he had already
gotten used to the opulence before him a long time ago. Even as he was being shown to his seat in the
dining hall, he did not disy even a hint of self-consciousness or fluster.
"Mr. Chu, my father is on his way here. He will arrive soon."
"If you are not expecting any other guests, maybe we can serve the food now? You can enjoy your
meal with your wife first." In front of Ye Fan, Shen Fei was acting restrained. Thetter''s tone was
respectful and, when he spoke, he would bow at the waist. In front of Ye Fan, Shen Fei was as servile
as a servant, and not a trace of his former arrogance as a rich man''s son could be seen.
After all, the man in front of Shen Fei had a terrifying background. Even the boss of Yunzhou city, Li Er,
had to behave respectfully in front of Ye Fan. And the Shens could not afford to offend Li Er, as they
were just underlings of thetter. Therefore, the Shens absolutely must not displease Ye Fan, who was
the master of Li Er.
"Mm~" Ye Fan was about to nod in agreement.
But Qiu Mu-Cheng suddenly started to look around the room. And then she asked in a whisper, "Ye
Fan, my grandfather and the others have not yet arrived?"
Ye Fan smiled and said, "Didn''t you see them just now? When we were going in, your grandfather and
the others were watching us."
"Ah?" Qiu Mu-Cheng was surprised when she heard this. "So you are telling me grandfather and the
others are still waiting outside? Why haven''t theye in yet?"
"What? So they are your rtives. It''s my mistake, my mistake. I will go wee them." When Shen
Fei heard this, he turned pale right away and started to sweat profusely. Right after saying his piece,
Shen Fei hurried to the entrance to wee the Qius.
After all, they were Mr. Chu''s rtives. If Shen Fei disrespected them, he might offend Mr. Chu.
"Honey, what should we do?"
"Could Ye Fan really be some big shot!”
"We have treated him so badly. Now that he''s sessful, he will not let us off the hook." Ma Ling, the
wife of the fifth Qiu brother, was getting worried. The other Qius were also frightened and panicking.
"Hmph, what kind of stupid big shot!" "The Shens invited our Wen-Fei and Ying-Ying, but Qiu Mu-
Cheng and her trashy husband weaseled their way in. Now they are basking in the reflected glory of
my daughter and son-inw.” Instead of feeling fearful, Wang Qiao-Yu wasmbasting Ye Fan and Qiu
Mu-Cheng.
“I think, Mr. Shen''s driver must have missed us earlier. So that bitch Qiu Mu-Cheng and her trashy
husband took the opportunity to impersonate the identities of Mr. and Madam Chu. They are just
pretending to be our Wen-Fei and Ying-Ying.”
"And these low-level underlings. They have never attended a high-society function before, so it''s only
natural that they can''t recognize our Wen-Fei. That piece of trash probably found it easy to fool them."
"Yes, that was probably what happened!"
"If you don''t believe me, just wait till Mr. Shen returns. He will definitely discover that the bastard Ye
Fan and that bitch Qiu Mu-Cheng are imposters. At that time, he will definitelye out to apologize to
our
Wen-Fei, and invite us in.”
At first, Wang Qiao-Yu had only been guessing. But as she kept repeating her lies, she started to
believe in them.
"Yes, that bitch Qiu Mu-Cheng must have used my name."
"Otherwise, why would all these people show her respect?"
"And that Ye Fan is even worse. He''s just a country bumpkin named Ye. How dare he use the name of
my husband, and call himself Mr. Chu?"
"Shit, he''s really shameless!"
Qiu Mu-Ying joined her mother and startedmbasting Ye Fan and Qiu Mu-Cheng as well.
But Master Qiu and the other Qius kept quiet. Although what Wang Qiao-Yu was saying made sense,
she had no proof to back up her ims. So unless Shen Jiu-Yi actuallyes forward to apologize and
invite them into the hotel, the Qius were reluctant to believe her.
"Ai~"
"Let''s go home."
"It makes us look bad if we keep on waiting here shamelessly."
After Ye Fan and Qiu Mu-Cheng had gone in, Master Qiu and his family had continued to wait outside
the hotel. But the passersby kept giving them strange looks, so Master Qiu decided that it was getting
too humiliating for them to hang around.
"Ai, don''t go~"
Wang Qiao-Yu refused to give up. If she went home just like that, then her family would be utterly
humiliated.
But the other Qius had already lost their patience, so they started to leave together with their patriarch.
“Grandpa Qiu, don''t go
Just then, somebody yelled out from behind them. When they turned around, the Qius could see Shen
Fei running toward them while sweating profusely.
"Hai, grandpa Qiu, since you are already here, why go home?"
"And you too, Mu-Ying. We have known each other for so many years already. Why didn''t you inform
me when you arrived?"
When she heard this, Qiu Mu-Ying got so angry that she almost choked to death.
You were the one who failed to see me when you came out earlier!
It was true that Shen Fei had failed to spot Qiu Mu-Ying earlier. At that time, he had been preparing to
wee Ye Fan, and did not want to be distracted. And to make matters worse, Chu Wen-Fei had
stepped up to spout his nonsense about being Mr. Chu, the son of Chu Yang. The Chu family of
Yunzhou was just a third-rate family so, naturally, Shen Fei had ignored the braggart.
"Quick, pleasee in."
"You are all rtives of Mr. Chu so, just like Mr. Chu, you are also the honored guests of Yunjing Hotel.
I am very sorry to have kept you waiting."
Shen Feiughed apologetically.
Wang Qiao-Yu was delighted when she heard Shen Fei''s invitation, and turned around to look smugly
at her rtives.
"Haha~"
"See? I guessed correctly, didn''t I? That piece of trash was just pretending to be my son-inw."Text ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.
"And Young Master Shen just said we are honored guests, because we are Wen-Fei''s rtives."
"Haha~"
Wang Qiao-Yuughed smugly and, when she walked, she looked a lot more confident.
And Chu Wen-Fei saw the opportunity to salvage his pride with thistest turn of events. So he put on
a look of authoritarian disapproval and turned to face Shen Fei.
"Shen Fei, you made a huge mistake just now. Do you know that?”
"Are you supposed to treat your guests like that?"
"It''s just me today but, if you were to treat my father so rudely, he would have lost his temper right
away. Do you know that?"
Chu Wen-Fei put on the air of a teacher criticizing his student when he spoke to Shen Fei.
"Yes yes yes, it was my fault just now." But although Shen Fei was smiling outwardly, he was cursing
Chu Wen-Fei inwardly.
How dare the two-bit scion of a third-rate family lecture him?
If he were not rted to Mr. Chu, Shen Fei would have kicked Chu Wen-Fei already.
But since Chu Wen-Fei was Ye Fan''s rtive, Shen Fei did not dare to offend him. So with an
apologetic smile on his face, Shen Fei escorted Chu Wen-Fei and the Qius into the dining hall.
But Qiu Mu-Ying was still feeling unhappy. She turned to ask Shen Fei: "Where are the greeters? Why
aren''t they here to wee us?"
"And what about the hotel executives?
Why aren''t they here to apologize to us?”
Earlier, when Ye Fan and Qiu Mu-Cheng had gone into the hotel, a lot of employees were there to
greet them. The couple had a splendid entrance. But now that it was the Qius'' turn to enter the hotel,
they only had Shen Fei to escort them. So Qiu Mu-Ying was unhappy.
"Could it be that you think Ye Fan and Qiu Mu-Cheng are better than us?"
Unhappiness could clearly be seen in Qiu Mu-Ying''s eyes.
My daughter is right. Since we are honored guests as well, you can''t skim on the presentation.”
Wang Qiao-Yu was a vain person so, when she heard her daughter''sment, she realized that the
mise-en-scene for their entrance was somewhatcking.
