"Mr...Mr...Ch-Ch-Chu?"
When he saw Ye Fan standing before him, Lei Ao-Ting felt like he had been struck by lightning and he was so frightened, his soul nearly left him.
Lei Ao-Ting felt that this had to be the biggest joke that life played on him.
Back in Jianghai, in order to help a friend, Lei Ao-Ting offended Ye Fan.
Later in Yunzhou, Lei Ao-Ting tried to help another friend, and offended Ye Fan again.
Who would have known that Lei Ao-Ting would help yet another friend in his own territory and actually offend Ye Fan once more?
Lei Ao-Ting's mind went blank and he was on the verge of tears.
“Looks like Young Master Lei still remembers me. I thought that you might have forgotten me in the long list of people you come into contact with. I don't think it's been that long since that incident in
Yunzhou, so I got a little upset. Did Young Master Lei forget my words of advice already? Have you left it at the back of your mind so quickly?”
Ye Fan stood with his hands behind his back and looked down at Lei Ao-Ting.
His teasing gaze continued to look at Lei Ao-Ting with a faint smile.
But the more Ye Fan behaved so amicably, the more terrified Lei Ao-Ting became.
He could feel a terrible chill down his spine.
His white shirt was already drenched in cold sweat.
"How...how could that be? I will always remember what you have said before and I won't dare to forget it."
"Is that so? Then why are you here right now? Aren't you here precisely to stand up for someone and bash me up?" asked Ye Fan with a cold smile.
Lei Ao-Ting's face twitched and he became even more terrified. There was none of his arrogance earlier.
Even his own father had to bow to this man like he was an ancestor of theirs, never mind one mere Lei Ao-Ting.
Furthermore, just a few days back, his own uncle had offended Ye Fan, and now his uncle was dead. After that happened, Lei Ao-Ting was even more fearful and reverent towards Ye Fan.
He squeezed an ingratiating smile out. "I...I wouldn't dare...Mr Chu, you are really humorous. I'm here to attend my friend's wedding. That's all. I didn't intend to stand up for anyone and I'm going to be a calm and quiet person like you said."
Lei Ao-Ting's trembling and fearful behavior made everyone around him look at him in shock.
"Yu-Yan, what...what is going on? Did something go wrong with Young Master Lei's head or something? Why is he being so polite towards Ye Fan?" Ye Jian's eyes were huge as he watched this scene unfold in disbelief.
Ye Yu-Yan was equally stunned. She shook her head and looked extremely confused.
Qin Yu was even more puzzled. He walked up to Lei Ao-Ting and said, "Ao-Ting, what's going on? Did you get the wrong guy? This fellow's surname is Ye, and his name is Ye Fan. He's just a live-in son-in-law, so he's not worth being respectful to. Besides, this useless piece of trash made trouble at my wedding, so you have to help me to throw him out."
WHAT THE...
"You just bloody shut your trap!"
Lei Ao-Ting felt like he nearly died when he heard what Qin Yu said.
In his fright, he immediately slapped Qin Yu across the face so hard that he fell to the floor.
After he had slapped Qin Yu, Lei Ao-Ting continued to bend over backwards just to apologize to Ye Fan, "Mr Ch-I mean, Mr Ye, my friend is getting married today and he goes a little crazy when he's too happy. Please don't stoop to his level, I've already taught him a lesson for you."
Lei Ao-Ting was pretty smart too. He didn't know why Mr Chu went around telling others his surname was Ye, but Mr Chu definitely had his reasons and it was probably to hide his real identity.
Lei Ao-Ting wasn't stupid, so he went along with Ye Fan and started to call him 'Mr Ye' instead.
