A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)

Chapter 169 Could You Be Any More Awesome!

The Qiu's family house.

Qiu Mu-Cheng had already left a long while ago, but the house continued to remain silent.

The sight of Qiu Mu-Cheng's family driving away in a million-yuan luxury car had undoubtedly left Jiang

Hong and company feeling unpleasant.

Meanwhile, Qiu Guang could not help feeling despondent.

All along, Qiu Guang had idolized Zhang Xiao-Song, his elder in the business world.

But today, a business elite like him had willingly submitted to Qiu Mu-Cheng and become her

subordinate. Therefore, Qiu Guang could not help but wonder if his niece truly had such great

charisma.

Also, if they had not kicked Qiu Mu-Cheng out of the family, would that not mean that Zhang Xiao-Song

and his cohorts would become employees of Qiushui Logistics?

When his train of thought reached this point, Qiu Guang felt even more despondent.

He could not help feeling that Qiushui Logistics had just lost a huge opportunity.

"Father, did we do wrong when we chased Mu-Cheng away?” Qiu Guang looked at Master Qiu and,

when he spoke, his heavy voice was filled with melancholy.

Just then, the old man was looking rather pale as he sat weakly in his chair. It seemed as if he had

suddenly aged many years. On his heavily wrinkled face, one could see traces of an ambiguous

emotion.

In the face of his son's question, Master Qui remained silent for a long while.

Just then, the mood within the Qiu's family house was exceptionally downcast.

After all, Qiu Lei and his household had always been regarded as the most useless members of their

family. So none of the Qius had expected the impotent quartet to be the ones to cause the whole family

to lose face.

That had been a particularly heavy slap to their faces.

However, Wang Qiao-Yu could not bear to know that Qiu Mu-Cheng and her family were doing well for

themselves. So she continued to disparage them. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

"Guang, how could you say this?"

"Qiu Mu-Cheng conspired with her trashy husband to undermine the ethics and moral standards of our

family. Isn't that a crime worthy of expulsion from the family?"

"As for her job title, well, being the president of some real estate company may sound grand, but I bet

that's just some small company. I have seen plenty of those. You can register a company with just a

few thousand. But, at most, such companies can only survive for three months before shutting down.

There is nothing to envy about them." "Also, you should not believe all that nonsense that Zhang Xiao-

Song fellow was feeding us. He was just bragging to us."

"And if that so-called real estate company was really that great, then why would they cheapen

themselves by finding an inexperienced and useless nobody without any connections to be their

company president?"

"But Qiao-Yu, they did come with a millionyuan luxury car. If they were really running a shell company,

then where did they get the fund to buy such an expensive car?"

"The most expensive car our company owns is just an Audi A6 that's only worth four or five hundred

thousand, right?” one of the Qius questioned.

Wang Qiao-Yu snorted and said: "If they can't afford to buy one, then they can simply rent one. Am I

right? I could tell at a glance that the car was a revamped rental from some second-hand car mart."

"Moreover, our Wen-Fei's family is in the real estate business. If this company was really that great,

then Wen-Fei would have heard of it before, right?"

While she was talking, Wang Qiao-Yu turned to look at Chu Wen-Fei and asked: "Wen-Fei, have you

heard of the real estate company they were talking about?"

And Chu Wen-Fei shook his head without hesitation.

"No. It is definitely some lousy company. Otherwise, I would have heard of them before."

After listening to Wang Qiao-Yu's explanations, the other Qius immediately felt better.

"Alright, let us stop caring about how well others are doing. We should take care of our own business

first."

"Mu-Ying, over the next few years, whether Qiushui Logistics will do well or not will depend on your

joint project with Hongqi

Group." "Do a good job. Our family had to work hard to obtain this opportunity to work with Hongqi

Group. Now that you are in charge of the partnership, you must not let us down."

Qiu Guang exhorted in a heavy voice.

As he was saying all this, he did not feel the slightest bit of shame.

Even though the Qius had done nothing toward winning the contract. Qiu Mu-Cheng was the one who

had worked hard to make the partnership a reality.

The Qius had worked hard?

To think, Qiu Guang had the audacity to tell such a lie.

But it was meaningless to discuss this now. Qiu Mu-Cheng had already left the family and so, whether

the partnership went well or not, it had nothing to do with her anymore.

Very soon, the Qius departed from the family house.

The night passed quickly. When morning came, Qiu Mu-Cheng started to prepare to leave for work at

her new company.

Last night, she had done some research on the internet and found out general details about the

company.

It was a newly established company and, although its size was not huge, it was still bigger than Qiushui

Logistics. The latter only had assets worth around twenty million.

But what had really surprised Qiu Mu-Cheng was that even though this Mufan Real Estates was a

small company, its executives were all elites in the business world.

For example, last year, both Zhang Xiao-Song and Xia Dong-Hai had both been nominated as Annual

Economic Figures of Yunzhou City.

Qiu Mu-Cheng could not help but wonder at the identity of Mufan Real Estates' backer. Who could

have such clout as to gather so many talented elites in one

company?

Not long after their daughter had left for work, both Han Li and Qiu Lei also left the apartment.

The couple did not work and would usually spend their time playing mahjong/majiang or shopping at

the mall. In the past, almost half of Qiu Mu-Cheng's earnings had been spent on supporting her

parents' lifestyle.

As for Ye Fan, after he had completed the household chores, he went back to the study and made a

call to Han.

"Han, are Zhang Xiao-Song and Xia Dong-Hai part of the 'Sparks' we have invested in early on?"

Before leaving for Anning County, Ye Fan had already asked Xu Lei to assist in setting up Mufan Real

Estates.

Xu Lei was the one who had contributed the most effort toward the setting up of this new company, but

Ye Fan had provided help in some key areas.

Take Zhang Xiao-Song for example. Before coming to work at Mufan Real Estates, he had been the

CEO of a double-digit billionyuan state-owned enterprise. It would have been impossible to persuade

such a business bigwig to go work for an inexperienced girl, even if Xu Lei had been the one doing the

asking.

That was why, at the moment of Zhang Xiao-Song's appearance, Ye Fan had known that he was one of

Han's men.

Indeed, Ye Fan had called Han before and asked him to select a few talents to assist Qiu Mu-Cheng in

managing the company.

However, when he heard Ye Fan's query, Han shook his head and refuted Ye Fan's guess.

"Young Master, we did invest in Zhang Xiao-Song several years ago. But he turned out to be a failure

so I have never considered him a part of 'Operation Spark.'"

"At first, I was not going to bother myself with him anymore. I thought he was completely useless. But

since you need people now, I thought I might as well contact him and invite him over."

As Ye Fan listened to Han's explanation, he nodded his head and gave an affirmative grunt.

"This Zhang Xiao-Song is nearly fifty but he has only managed to become the CEO of a double-digit

billion-yuan enterprise. Yes, I agree. He is a failure. No wonder I had no impression of him.”

Every single member of "Operation Spark" had been painstakingly handpicked by Ye Fan. So naturally,

he could clearly remember each and everyone of them. For example, he had recognized the King of

Jiangdong, Chen Ao, at first glance.

But Zhang Xiao-Song was a failed product, so Ye Fan had not remembered him.

Within the study, Ye Fan laughed softly.

If a third party had been listening in on his conversation with Han, he would probably have a stroke.

Billionaire CEO. Boss of a state-owned enterprise. Annual Economic Figure of Yunzhou City

Simply revealing any one of these titles in public would be enough to terrify a multitude of people.

But in Ye Fan's eyes, Zhang Xiao-Song, a person who enjoyed numerous honors, was only a failed

product?

Damn. Could Ye Fan be any more awesome?
