Chapter 120 Mister... Mister Chu?


    The fat manager had not imagined that Ye Fan was really an invited guest. And to think the person who


    had invited him was the top tycoon of Yunzhou City, the president of Hongqi Group, Xu Lei!


    When he saw Ye Fan chatting pleasantly with Xu Lei, the fat manager was instantly frightened out of


    his wits.


    He thought that this was the end for him.


    Right now, he could only hope that Ye Fan would be magnanimous enough to forget about what had


    just happened.


    But barely enough time had passed for Ye Fan to forget the earlier unpleasantness.


    After taking a sip of his coffee, Ye Fan smiled lightly and said, "Miss Xu, you are pleasant to look at


    today. But it is a pity that you found us such an unpleasant shop."


    Although Ye Fan was speaking softly, everyone else in the cafe could hear him. Of course, that


    included the fat manager.


    Almost immediately, the fat manager turned pale. He stepped forward in a panic and said in a pained


    voice, "Sir, what happened just now was my fault."


    "In my ignorance, I have offended Miss Xu''s guest."


    "Please forgive me, sir~"


    As the fat manager kept apologizing, sweat poured profusely from his forehead.


    But Ye Fan looked yfully at the manager and said, "You were saying something different earlier. You


    said I was a country bumpkin and that I was unworthy to be in this ce. And you were going to call for


    your employees to throw me out?"


    When Xu Lei heard this, a sombre expression came over her beautiful face.


    "Mr. Hu, how dare you?"


    "How dare you insult a guest of mine?" "I think perhaps you wish to shut down your cafe?"


    "Miss Xu, no~" The fat manager was so frightened that he nearly burst into tears. Belle''s Cafe was his


    lifeblood. If it was shut down, then he would not be able to provide for his family.


    "Miss Xu, I was wrong. I really did not mean to offend your guest."


    "It''s them."


    "Yes, that''s right. It''s all their fault. That degenerate couple sitting over there. They kept saying that your


    guest was a country bumpkin and a poor loser. They made me chase him away. I only did that because


    they told me to."


    As the fat manager kept talking, he abased himself so much that he seemed as insignificant as dirt. In


    the end, he simply shifted all the me to Chu Wen-Fei and Qiu Mu-Ying.


    "How dare you! You bastard! How dare you scold us?" When he heard the manager call him and his


    wife a "degenerate couple," Chu Wen-Fei blew his top andshed out right away.


    "Well, screw you!”


    "Why are you still trying to show off?"


    "You two dumbasses nearly got me killed!"


    The fat manager got so worked up that he kicked Chu Wen-Fei and Qiu Mu-Ying from their chairs.


    At this moment, he wished he could just kick the degenerate couple to death.


    If it were not for them, he would never have offended Ye Fan and angered Xu Lei.


    "Screw you! Get out of here now!"


    "You dumbass couple! How dare you insult Miss Xu''s guest?"


    "Are you trying to get me killed?"


    The fat manager''s eyes were red with rage as he scolded and beat the couple. Naturally, in the face of


    the ferocious attacks, both Chu Wen-Fei and Qiu Mu-Ying no longer dared to remain in the cafe. The


    couple climbed to their feet and escaped in a crestfallen manner. Just then, they looked thoroughly


    pathetic. There was no longer any trace left of the arrogance and authority they had shown Ye Fan


    earlier.


    However, till the end, Qiu Mu-Ying and Chu Wen-Fei still could not understand why a VIP like Xu Lei


    would personally entertain a live-in son-inw like Ye Fan.


    After the noisy couple had left the cafe, the ce became a lot more peaceful.


    Afterward, Ye Fan did not make things difficult for the manager. He merely reminded thetter to be a


    friendly, peaceful and kind person in future; a person who would always have a smile on his face.


    What else could the fat manager do but nod his head in agreement. And then he left in a panic.


    Afterward, Xu Lei looked at Ye Fan and snorted inughter.


    In front of Ye Fan, the top tycoon of Yunzhou did not put on airs as she would normally do. Instead, she


    had a friendly and intoxicating smile on her face.


    "What are you smiling at?" Ye Fan asked.


    "Nothing. I just thought the way you messed with the manager was kinda funny. Where did you learn


    those lines?" Xu Lei asked with a smile.


    "I summarized them from my valuable life experiences," Ye Fan replied.


    "Okay, let''s not talk about that. I want to know more about what is going on with Qiushui Logistics. Is


    the partnership between yourpany and Qiushui Logistics going smoothly?”


    Clearly, Ye Fan was more concerned about how Qiu Mu-Cheng was doing.


    Several days had already passed since he left the Qius, and he did not know a thing about her current


    situation.


    Xu Lei nodded. "I asked the person-in-charge in mypany beforeing here. Things are still


    Belongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org.


    going well. But Mr. Chu, ording to what I know, your wife is not popr in herpany. Although


    she is the project manager in name, the Qius do not seem to respect her authority."


    "Right now, the Qius need to rely on her for the partnership with mypany. So, for a while, they will


    show her some courtesy. But what aboutter on? Once the partnership matures and stabilizes, do you


    think your wife will still be able to remain in her current position?"


    "The Qius are running a family business. The criterion for advancement in such apany is not one''s


    capability. But rather it will depend on her skill at ttery. The person who seeds in ttering Master


    Qiu will be the one to hold the reins of control. Mr. Chu, what do you think of your wife''s skill at


    ttery?”


    After listening to Xu Lei, Ye Fan''s expression gradually turned sombre.


    Qiu Mu-Cheng is a silly and proud woman. She wouldn''t know anything about ttering people!


    Xu Lei took a sip of coffee and said indifferently: "If she doesn''t know how to tter people, then I


    advice you to make some preparations. Based on my judgement, I think Qiu Mu-Cheng will not remain


    long in her current position."


    Ye Fan nodded. "Yes, I should start making alternative ns.”


    "And, considering how capable Mu-Cheng is, Qiushui Logistics is really too small for her."


    Ye Fan spent a lot of time chatting with Xu Lei during the afternoon. They only ended their conversation


    and left the cafe in the evening.


    When he returned to the vi, Ye Fan looked at the calender. The date was the thirteeth of August.


    There were only two days left till the duel at Mount Tai.


    But still, there was no news from Han.


    "It looks like it will be impossible to find that eyesore before the duel."


    Ye Fan stood by the window with his hands sped behind his back. As he looked at the sky outside,


    his eyes were filled with gravitas and a cold light shed within them. Nobody knew just what was


    going through his head at this moment.


    This night, he did not y the harmonica.


    The next morning, Li Er called Ye Fan again. He informed thetter that he would be hosting a send-off


    banquet at his residence tonight. Once again, he earnestly invited Ye Fan to attend.


    “Mr. Chu, where would you like me to pick you up?" Li Er asked.


    Ye Fan pondered for a moment before saying, "Come to the eastern suburb first. Give me a call when


    you arrive."


    After he finished speaking, Ye Fan ended the call.


    The day went by quickly.


    When evening came, Ye Fan took a shower. But he still felt hungry, so he looked around for a


    restaurant in his vicinity. He wanted to have a light meal to assuage his hunger a little.


    "There is also a Sheng Tian Restaurant in Yunzhou?”


    "I wonder if it belongs to the samepany as the Sheng Tian in Jianghai?"


    Ye Fanughed softly and then walked into the restaurant.


    But, the moment he stepped through the entrance, a careless female server walked right into him. And


    even spilled the beer she was holding all over Ye Fan.


    "I am sorry-1 am sorry-" This female server was obviously a young girl. She looked like she had only


    just started working right after college. As she apologized to Ye Fan in a panic, her face turned


    considerably pale.


    Ye Fan saw this andughed. "Don''t worry. You just go ahead and do your work. Just


    be more careful next time."


    "Thank you..."


    "Mm? Mr... Mr. Chu?" The server was just about to thank Ye Fan but, when she lifted her head to look


    at him, she became so surprised that her eyes widened noticeably.
