Chapter 40 Who Is Mr. Chu?


    Chu Wen-Fei''s face was flushed from the three sses of wine he had drunk within a short span of


    time. Meanwhile, Shen Fei had a terrible expression on his face, as he thought about giving the idiotic


    Chu Wen-Fei a few good kicks.


    But in the midst of Shen Fei''s gloom, he was interrupted by Ye Fan. Thetter, who had been watching


    the farce from the sidelines, shook his head and smiled. Then, he raised his tea cup and faced Shen


    Fei with a smile. "Today''s banquet has shown me your sincerity. So I shall forgive your rudeness


    toward Mu-Cheng. I will no longer pursue this matter. But remember this. There will not be a next time."


    "Mu-Cheng doesn''t like me to drink, so I don''t drink often. Today, I will respond to your toast with a cup


    of tea."


    Ye Fan''s interjection caused Qiu Mu-Cheng to jump in fright.


    She hurriedly poked her husband and said angrily: "Ye Fan, are you crazy? Why are you interrupting


    them?"


    As for the Qius, they were dumbfounded by Ye Fan''s interruption. All at once, they turned to look at Ye


    Fan as if he was an idiot. Wang Qiao-Yu and Qiu Mu-Ying wasughing hard enough to hurt


    themselves. When the mother and daughter pair looked at Ye Fan, their eyes were filled with ridicule.


    "Haha~"


    "Ye Fan, are you a moron?"


    "You can see their sincerity? You are not going to pursue matters? You are just a live-in son-inw.


    How dare you speak to Young Master Shen like that?"


    "If we didn''t know any better, we would have thought that you were the guest of honor today."


    "And you want to toast Young Master Shen with a cup of tea? You are just a lowly live-in son-inw. Do


    you think you are worthy of that honor?"


    Wang Qiao-Yu thought the idea wasughable. It was as if she had just seen


    Ye Fan perform the funniest joke in the world.


    Qiu Mu-Ying''s face was also filled with mockery and disdain. "The very idea isughable!"


    "Our Wen-Fei has not said anything yet, you piece of trash. Who gave you the right to show off around


    here?"


    "Why don''t you take a good look at yourself? What are you? Do you think you are worthy enough to


    have a drink with Young Master Shen?"


    The Qius started scolding Ye Fan and even Master Qiu joined in the fray. With a frown on his face, he


    turned to Ye Fan and shouted coldly: "You ill-mannered brat. Do you think this is a ce where you can


    act as you wish? Apologize to Young Master Shen now!"


    Meanwhile, Qiu Mu-Cheng was feeling embarrassed due to her husband''s behavior. So as she urged


    her husband to apologize, she herself was also asking for forgiveness from Shen Fei. "Young Master


    Shen, I am sorry. Don''t be angry. I will get him to apologize to you."


    "Mu-Cheng, they are the ones who are supposed to make the apology. So why are we apologizing to


    them?" Ye Fan continued to smile lightly.


    When the Qius heard him, they got so frightened that they almost wet themselves. And they started


    scolding Ye Fan.


    "Go screw yourself!"


    "Are you an idiot?"


    "How dare you brag in front of Young Master Shen! If we knew you would do something like this, we


    would not have brought you here!"


    As for Qiu Mu-Cheng, she was getting frantic with worry and kept urging Ye Fan to apologize.


    But, unexpectedly, just as the assembled Qius were scolding Ye Fan, Shen Fei suddenly stood up and


    raised his cup in response to Ye Fan''s toast. And with a ttered look on his face, Young Master Shen


    turned to Ye Fan and answered: "Haha~"


    "It is my honor to be able to exchange a toast with Mr. Chu!"


    "Mr. Chu, thank you for your magnanimity. I will finish my drink first!"


    Shen Fei''s tone was servile and very respectful, as if he was a eunuch serving the emperor.


    "What~"


    "What~What~"


    Wang Qiao-Yu was stunned. And Qiu Mu-Ying''s mockingughter came to a stop. The other Qius were


    all rooted to the spot.


    "What''s going on?"


    "Young Master Shen is having a drink with him?" "And he looks like he''s ttered by Ye Fan''s


    attention?"


    Qiu Mu-Ying and the other Qius felt they were unable to process what was going on. Wang Qiao-Yu


    was staring with wide-open eyes as she hurriedly exined to Shen Fei: "Young Master Shen, why are


    you drinking with him? He''s just a live-in son-inw of the Qiu family. He is a person of low status and


    not worthy enough to ept a toast from you."

    "How dare you! Mr. Chu is of noble birth.


    How dare you insult him?!" Shen Fei pped the table and roared angrily. Wang Qiao-Yu was so


    frightened by the outburst that her face turned white as sheet.


    All at once, the Qius were stunned.


    Mr. Chu?


    Of noble birth?


    Could it be that Shen Fei had been under the misunderstanding that Ye Fan was Mr. Chu?


    Pfft~


    Wang Qiao-Yu could not keep it in and burst outughing. "I understand. So that was the reason why


    Young Master Shen kept looking at that piece of trash. He really thinks Ye Fan is Wen-Fei."


    "Young Master Shen, the person beside my daughter is the real Mr. Chu. As for that person, he is just a


    live-in son-inw of our family. His surname is Ye. He is most definitely not some Mr. Chu.”


    "You can ask him yourself, if you don''t believe me!"


    Wang Qiao-Yu looked at Ye Fan. Shen Fei also looked at Ye Fan. Just then, everyone was looking at


    Ye Fan, as if they were waiting for him to make a fool of himself.


    But Ye Fan remained calm. He sipped his tea gently and smiled. "My aunt is correct.


    I am a live-in son-inw of the Qiu family. And my surname is Ye."


    "I am but a simple man. I dare not call myself Mr. Chu."


    Ye Fan spoke lightly and there seemed to be some ambiguous meaning hidden in his light-hearted


    words.


    Shen Fei was stunned by his words, but he disbelieved them right away. Master Li Er had shown him


    Ye Fan''s photo. It was not possible for him to make a mistake. The person in front of him was


    undoubtedly a member of the Chu family''s Tian (Heaven) character generation.


    But why was he hiding his identity?


    Could it be?


    Just then, Shen Fei caught sight of the peerlessly beautiful Qiu Mu-Cheng sitting beside Ye Fan. He


    smiled and guessed that Mr. Chu was keeping a low profile in order to woo thedy.


    After all, many young men from rich families liked to use this move. By pretending to be a weak or nice


    guy, it bes easier to elicit romantic feelings from thedies. Shen Fei had used the same move


    before, so he guessed that Ye Fan was doing the same thing. Now, he had to lighten the mood for the


    sake.


    "Hahaha~"


    "Perhaps I have really failed to recognize the real Mr. Chu?"


    "Master Qiu, this son-inw of yours may be an ordinary person right now, but he looks handsome and


    dignified. One day, he will surely be a dragon among men. The third daughter of your family has


    found you an excellent son-inw." Shen Fei did not miss the opportunity to tter Ye Fan.


    Master Qiu''s face twitched a little. He did not know how to respond to Shen Fei''s ttery, so he smiled


    perfunctorily.


    It was the first time, in so many years, that he had heard someone praise Ye Fan.


    "What kind of shitty dragon among men? He is just a country bumpkin, destined to remain a useless


    piece of trash forever." When she heard Shen Fei praising Ye Fan instead of her husband, Qiu Mu-Ying


    felt a stab of jealousy and cursed Ye Fan under her breath.


    Because Shen Fei did not lose his temper over Ye Fan''s "rudeness", the Qius decided to just ignore the


    minor interruption to their meal.


    After a while, the general manager of Yunjing Hotel, along with the other managers, came in to offer


    their toasts to Ye Fan.


    "Mr. Chu, this is truly a great honor. Your presence has made our Yunjing Hotel even more resplendent.


    This is our first meeting, so please forgive us if our service is not up to par. And please, visit us often.


    We would also like top your meals whenever you and your wife dine at our hotel."


    "Also, we have heard that Mr. Chu does not drink. But we would like to present this bottle of 1982


    Chateau Lafite-Rothschild to you as a gift.”


    As the general manager was speaking, the other executives raised their sses toward Ye Fan.


    "Damn-"


    "1982 Chateau Lafite-Rothschild! It costs several hundred thousand per bottle!"


    "Free meals at the hotel?"


    Chu Wen-Fei was overjoyed by the surprise.


    Damn. Do I really have that much clout or are the Shens too friendly?


    Never mind. Let''s have a drink first.


    Chu Wen-Fei did not think twice and started to clink sses with the assembled executives.


    "You are standing on ceremony.”


    "Haha~"


    "You fellows have nothing to worry about. I will definitely patronize your hotel frequently."


    Chu Wen-Fei was not just being polite. He had already decided toe to the hotel whenever he has


    to throw a function.


    After all, he would be getting all his mealsped. And, at the same time, he would be able to show


    off in front of his associates. So why the hell not?


    But the executives, who had been offering their toasts to Ye Fan, looked flummoxed when the dumbass


    popped up to interrupt them. A few managers asked, "You are?"


    "I~l~" Chu Wen-Fei was dumbfounded.


    The atmosphere turned awkward.
