A Dish Best Served Cold Chapter 1607

 "Mu... Mu orange?"


        "How... How, how can it really be Mu Orange?"


        "This can't be, this is never possible?"


        At that moment, the two Han Li couples were struck by lightning.


        A pair of old eyes stared huge, and within their pupils, there was a look of disbelief.


        "What about Ye Fan?"


        "Isn't he Mr. Chu?"


        "Isn't he the Venerable of Jiangdong?"


        "What's he doing, a man, who can't even protect his own wife?"


        "I married my daughter to him to enjoy happiness with him, not to suffer with him."


        "Ye Fan, Ye Fan, I want to find Ye Fan."


        "Ye Fan, get your ass out here~"


        After the tremor, Han Li was the one who kept shouting Ye Fan's name in the middle of the crowd as if she had gone crazy.


        How distinct was the anxiety and anger in her eyes?


        Pity the parents' hearts.


        Even though Han Li and her husband were mean people, they could never bear to see their daughter in danger.


        Now that they know that Qiu Mu Orange has been kidnapped, they are naturally worried.


        What's more, Han Li and Qiu Lei had worked hard for half their lives and had achieved nothing.


        Qiu Mu Orange was their only pride and their only support.


        If their daughter was lost, Han Li and Qiu Lei could not imagine how they would live the rest of their lives alone.


        In her anxiety, Han Li's eyes were red as she shouted and pushed her way forward.


        "Ye Fan, you son of a bitch~"


        "You come out."


        "If anything happens to my daughter, I won't be done with you~"


        The ear-piercing curses echoed.


        Han Li was already extremely loud, so even though there was a lot of noise over here, Lei Lao San and the others not far away could still hear them clearly.


        "What's going on?"


        "Who's making a racket?"


        "How dare you speak disrespectfully to Mr. Chu?"


        "Bring him here!"


        At this moment, in a long pavilion by the lake, Lei Lao San and the others were deliberating, their faces full of sorrow.


        And beside them, there were quite a few people in suits sitting at attention.


        These people were not exactly new faces.


        For example, the sturdy and majestic old man next to him is Lu Tianhe, the military district chief who is now guarding Jiangdong.


        Next to him on his left is Han Dongmin, who has recently risen through the ranks and is now the head of a province and a top official in Jiangdong's official circles, in his early forties.


        Beyond that is He Lanshan, the former Lord of Jiangdong, who was deposed for provoking Ye Fan and spent a year in the countryside helping the poor, but is now back in office.


        However, He Lanshan's position has now been downgraded by half a rank, and he is now below Han Dongmin.


        Before this, who would have thought that Han Dongmin, who was just a small vice-persimmon a few years ago, would have risen through the ranks.


        Others may not know why, but Han Dongmin himself does.


        Apart from his own integrity and love for the people, the greater reason for his achievements and height today is due to Ye Fan.


        Nowadays, the incident of Ye Fan's wife being kidnapped has become a big deal.


        Even if he was in a high position, even if he had to manage a lot of things, he could ignore other matters, but how could he dare to ignore the affairs of a noble person?


        Therefore, after learning about this matter, Han Dongmin went straight from Jiangdong to the scene overnight to take command and work out a rescue plan with Lei Lao San and others.


        As for He Lanshan, he had long thought of easing relations with Ye Fan.


        Now that Ye Fan's wife was in distress, it was a perfect opportunity to ease relations, so he naturally followed him.


        Also, along with He Lanshan, was his daughter, He Yurou.


        It had been a few months since we parted in Jiangbei.


        To Ye Fan, he had probably already forgotten about this gentle woman whom he had only met once.


        However, for some people, a single meeting is enough to remember for life.


        Such was the case with He Yurou.


        The meeting on the West Lake and the young man's bold figure had long left an indelible mark on He Yurou's heart.


        During this period of time, He Yurou had been paying attention to Jiangdong, consciously or unconsciously, and to all information about that young man.


        However, Ye Fan was too mysterious.


        Someone who was obviously so powerful, but the information circulating in society about his whereabouts was scarce.


        After so long, the only thing that had been involved with Ye Fan was this date at Lake of Clouds.


        "Ye Fan, will you show up?"


        "You will, I suppose, come to save your wife."


        The clamour behind them was like a tidal wave.


        But He Yurou was oblivious to it.


        Her eyes were always on top of the wooden boat in the middle of the lake.


        Yes, she had never moved her attention from Qiu Mu Orange.


        She really wanted to know, what kind of woman was it that could convince that kind of youngster?


        Soon, the two of them, Han Li and her husband, were brought over by their men.


        "Third Master, it was the two of them that insulted Mr. Chu."


        "Why don't you kneel down now?" Between reports from the men under their command, it was one of them who kicked Han Li and her husband and wife to the ground.


        "Bastards, you dare to hit me?"


        "How dare you dogs!"


        "I'm Ye Fan's mother-in-law."


        "Normally, even your Mr. Chu respects me, who are you guys to dare to hit me?"


        Han Li growled, like a shrew.


        On the side, Han Dongmin frowned, "I think it's a mentally deranged person, take her to a mental hospital and go for compulsory medical treatment."


        Han Dongmin had given the word, who dared not obey?


        Immediately, a few officials came out and prepared to take Han Li and her husband away.


        "Stop!"


        "Who dares to touch them?"


        At this time, another person in the crowd rushed over, and it was Qiu Mu Orange's best friend, Su Xi.


        "Miss Su?"


        Seeing Su Xi, Lei Lao San and Wang Jie Xi both knew each other.


        After all, usually Su Xi was inseparable from Qiu Mu Orange, and Wang Jiexi and the others had not seen her much.


        "Let them go."


        "They are Mu Orange's parents."


        "You can't arrest them." Su Xi said forcefully.


        "What?"


        "Are they really Mr. Chu's mother-in-law's?"


        When Han Dongmin heard this, his face went white then, and he jumped up from his seat with a scuffle.


        Although he was now powerful in Jiangdong, once Mr. Chu was involved, Han Dongmin was not so calm and hurried over to apologize and say good words.


        "Han Province, there is no need for that."


        "Mr. Chu is not on good terms with them and has long since severed his kinship."


        "Even if we really shut them down today, Mr. Chu won't say anything." Lei Laosan said soothingly from the side.


        Only then did Han Dongmin breathe a sigh of relief.


        "But, after all, they are Miss Qiu's parents, so don't make things difficult."


        "Take them down and put them away for good."


        Han Dongmin waved his hand, gesturing for someone to take them away.


        "I'm not leaving, we're not leaving."


        "I want to see Ye Fan, shout Ye Fan out."


        "He must give us an explanation~"


        "We gave him our daughter, and this is how he takes care of my daughter?"


        Han Li was still shouting.


        "Auntie, stop it, let's talk outside."


        "These people are not ordinary people~"


        "If you really make a scene, you are Mu Orange's parents, they can't cover you up."


        Su Xi knew how to get in and out, knowing that none of these people in front of her were easy to mess with, she hurriedly pulled Han Li and her wife out.


        ----  


        ----  


        "What to do, now."


        "Are we just going to keep watching?"


        After Han Li and his wife left, Lei Lao San and the others were then once again caught in a dilemma.


        "Or, I'll send a strong attack."


        "Or, send snipers and shoot that thief in the head to save Miss Qiu from distress."


        Han Dongmin pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice.


        However, Lu Tianhe was the one who directly vetoed, "No!"


        "You guys don't know martial arts, so you naturally don't know how powerful martial artists are."


        "From what I feel, the woman who kidnapped Miss Qiu has an extraordinary aura."


        "Most likely, it's a Zong Shi level powerhouse."


        "At such a realm, one has long been unafraid of bullets."


        "Moreover, it is unknown whether your sniper, can hit or not."


        "If you fail to attack and provoke the other party instead, the consequences will be beyond you and me!"
