A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)

Chapter 50 Reversal



Chapter 50 Reversal

Qiu Mu-Cheng's huffy exclamation startled the birds in the trees.

And then, with her face red, she stomped angrily away in her exquisite high heels.

But Qiu Mu-Cheng was only feeling embarrassed. If Ye Fan had suggested copulation to her before

today, she would definitely despise him.

Maybe she herself did not notice that her attitude toward Ye Fan was imperceptibly changing for the

better.

Upon reaching home, she told her parents the good news. Both Han Li and Qiu Lei were overjoyed.

Right away, they made the decision to go celebrate at a restaurant. Naturally, Qiu Mu-Cheng asked Ye

Fan to come along.

"Why did you invite him?"

"He is just a freeloading piece of trash. Does he deserve to spend your money?" Han Li asked coldly.

"Mom, this time it is all thanks to Ye Fan. If it weren't for him~" Qiu Mu-Cheng continued to defend her

husband, but she was rudely interrupted by Han Li.

"Him? All thanks to him? I will be thankful as long as he doesn't cause you trouble. Mu-Cheng, you

have been acting weird lately. You keep defending that piece of trash. I am warning you, you have to

divorce him sooner or later. You had better keep that in mind. My brother is already helping you to look

for a suitable match. Someone wealthy and powerful. You go meet him in a few days."

"That's enough, mom. I am not going to the restaurant. You and dad can go by yourselves. I will stay

home with Ye Fan." Finally, Qiu Mu-Cheng lost her temper with her mother and went into the bedroom

by herself, ignoring Han Li completely.

Han Li also got angry and, in the end, she had no choice but to go the restaurant with just Qiu Lei.

Meanwhile, Qiu Mu-Ying was seething in rage in the comfort of her own home. The more she thought

about her cousin, the angrier she got.

She had planned to make things difficult for Qiu Mu-Cheng, and embarrass the latter before ousting her

from the company. But unexpectedly, Qiu Mu-Ying's plan had helped pave the road to her cousin's

success.

"This Qiu Mu-Cheng. How did she get so lucky?"

"Not only did she get the loan, she also managed to get the opportunity to work with Hongqi Group."

Hongqi Group was backed by Hongqi Bank and managed solely by Xu Lei. The company had strong

backings and was financially strong. And Qiu Mu-Cheng had managed to obtain an order from such a

company. Wang Qiao-Yu was shocked and angry when she found out about it. Just then, she was

pacing up and down in her room.

"Ying-Ying, this will not do. We have to think of something."

"That order is worth fifty million. If Qiu Mu-Cheng gets the deal, she will rise to the top of the company

and your grandfather will favor her even more."

"More importantly, if she uses this opportunity to get to know Xu Lei, then her position in our family will

be unshakeable. Maybe your grandfather will even hand the company over to her."

"When that time comes, we will lose our positions in the family."

Wang Qiao-Yu was full of worry, as she talked away beside her daughter.

Qiu Mu-Ying was also furious and had her own grievances to air as well. "Mom, what's the point of

saying all this now? Grandfather has already made her the person-in-charge of this project and all

negotiations with Hongqi Group. What else can we do?"

All along, Wang Qiao-Yu's family had considered Qiu Mu-Cheng to be a thorn in their side. In the past,

whenever Wang Qiao-Yu and her family had embezzled money from the company, Qiu Mu-Cheng had

always been the one to report their misdeeds to Master Qiu. As a result, the old man had reprimanded

Wang Qiao-Yu and her family a number of times.

Therefore, as long as Qiu Mu-Cheng remained in the company, Wang Qiao-Yu and her family could not

act as they wish. And now that Qiu Mu-Cheng's position in the company was higher than before, Wang

Qiao-Yu and her family were naturally panicking more than ever.

"I have a plan.”

"Let's go, Ying-Ying. We will go see your grandfather."

"We cannot let Qiu Mu-Cheng rise above us." Wang Qiao-Yu seemed to have thought of a plan. And

even though it was late at night, she pulled her daughter along to see Master Qiu.

To ensure success, Wang Qiao-Yu even brought Qiu Guang along to the meeting.

"Grandfather, when I got home earlier, I had a meeting with Uncle Guang and the others. We feel that it Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

is not right to give Mu-Cheng the responsibilty of handling negotiations with Hongqi Group." Qiu Mu-

Ying said sweetly as she gave Master Qiu a shoulder massage.

"What's wrong with that? Mu-Cheng was the one who got the contract. It is only right to let her

negotiate with Hongqi Group," Master Qiu responded with a frown.

"Grandfather, think about it. All these years, Mu-Cheng has been in charge of the grassroots work and

so she has only been interacting with the low-level people. She has never negotiated a contract with an

elite, let alone a top-level elite like Miss Xu. This order from Hongqi Group is worth a great deal of

money, and our company's survival depends on the success of this deal. Grandfather, do you really

want to entrust the important task of ensuring our survival to an inexperienced person?"

"You may be right. But didn't Mu-Cheng get the loan contract? Isn't this proof of her ability?" Master Qiu

replied heavily.

"Dad, this has nothing to do with her ability. She simply shared Wen-Fei's limelight and got lucky. Think

about it. Only a few days ago, the Shens made such a huge deal out of our banquet. So Miss Xu

probably heard about the VIP in our family and, out of consideration for Wen-Fei, she approved our

loan. So it has nothing to do with Qiu Mu-Cheng. Anyone else from our family could have gone to Miss

Xu and gotten the loan approved. Dad, think about it. Is it possible for Qiu Mu-Cheng, the wife of a live-

in son-in-law, to meet Miss Xu in person? And it is possible that Miss Xu only gave Qiushui Logisitics

the fifty million contract because Wen-Fei is our son-in-law.” The words spewed out of Wang Qiao-Yu

as she tried to convince Master Qiu of her idea.

"This~" Master Qiu was dumbfounded.

To be honest, he was also perplexed by Qiu Mu-Cheng's successful negotiation with Hongqi Group. By

right, she should not have been able to do so.

"Yes, dad. I have given this some thought as well. It is indeed not proper to allow Mu-Cheng to

negotiate with Miss Xu. Let's not talk about her capability as a negotiator for the moment. Mu-Cheng's

status alone makes her unworthy of negotiating with Miss Xu."

"Who is Miss Xu? She is one of the two overlords of Yunzhou. Only someone who is at least a vice

general manager, like Ying-Ying, has the right to sit before Miss Xu. Mu-Cheng was just a salesperson

in our company. And her husband is a live-in son-in-law. If Miss Xu finds out that Qiushui Logistics sent

such a low-level person to negotiate with her, what will she think of us?"

"She will think we are humiliating her."

When he heard this, Master Qiu turned pale. "Mm, I did not give this matter enough thought. Mu-Cheng

is indeed not a suitable candidate. From now on, Ying-Ying will handle all negotiations with Hongqi

Group." "Ying-Ying, give yoru cousin a call later, and inform her of my decision."

Qiu Mu-Ying was overjoyed when she heard this. "Yes, grandfather. I will not let you down. I will

definitely get the contract."

"And grandfather, please don't worry too much. Everything I do is for the sake of our family. I am only

thinking of the big picture. I am not gunning for Mu-Cheng.”

"Mm, I know. I have seen your family's contributions with my own eyes," Master Qiu nodded.

At this moment, his phone rang out suddenly. The caller was Qiu Mu-Cheng.

The old man answered the call immediately.

"Grandfather, I just looked through the contract again. And I don't think we can fufill Miss Xu's

requirements with our current capabilities. I suggest we purchase some more transport lorries...”

Qiu Mu-Cheng was about to continue when her grandfather interrupted her. "You don't have to worry

about this anymore. Ying-Ying will take care of it," Master Qiu said heavily.

"Ah?" At the other end of the line, Qiu Mu-Cheng was momentarily struck dumb.

Master Qiu continued, "Also, you don't have to attend the contract signing either. Ying-Ying will handle

all negotiations between Qiushui Logistics and Hongqi Group. You just stick to your own duties."

Silence.

The silence went on for a long time.

After who knew how long, Qiu Mu-Cheng's hoarse whisper drifted through the phone. "Grandfather, I

want to know why. Why? Why are you letting someone else take away the fruits of my labor?"

"What insolence! How dare you speak to me like this! You have no respect for your elders and you are

indeed unworthy of negotiating with Miss Xu." Master Qiu was enraged after Qiu Mu-Cheng's back talk,

and he ended the call by slamming down the phone.

Shortly after, Qiu Mu-Ying and her family left the family house, fully satisfied with themselves.

"Ying-Ying, if you get the contract, you will be making plenty of profit on the side, right?" On their way

home, Qiu Guang looked at his niece and smiled lightly.

"Haha, don't worry, Uncle Guang. When the time comes, I will remember to share.”

The three Qius started laughing and, just then, they looked really hideous.

Qiu Mu-Ying continued smiling, even after she had reached home. Finally, she gave her cousin a call.

"Mu-Cheng, grandfather wanted me to tell you that I will be in charge of all negotiations with Hongqi

Group. As for you, you can go chill in a corner."

"Haha~"

"Mu-Cheng, thank you for your present. After I get the contract, I will definitely remember your selfless

offering."

At this moment, Qiu Mu-Ying's eyes were filled with disdain and she felt very smug indeed.

Inwardly, she was smiling sinisterly.

Qiu Mu-Cheng, you are not worthy enough to be my rival!
