The Man In Rage novel Chapter 86

Originally, the Han family had been a small family in Dongyang Town but, later on, Madam Han had risen through the ranks to become a county-level cadre in Jianghai. And using her accumulated connections and resources, she had made her family prosper.

Now, Madam Han had three children.

Other than her second child, Han Li, her other two children were doing well for themselves.

Perhaps due to her old age, she missed her home town.

So although Han Hai had already bought her a house in the city, Madam Han continued to stay in the old family house.

Dongyang Town.

It was still early but there were already a lot of cars parked outside the Han's family house.

To have gotten here so early, most of them were probably Madam Han's neighbors or her children.

As a matter of fact, two of Madam Han's children had already arrived before Ye Fan and Qiu Mu-Cheng.

Han Hai and his son, Han He, were chatting away with the old madam. On her right hand side sat a vampishly dressed middle-aged woman. She had on heavy makeup and was playing a game on her phone.

This woman was Qiu Mu-Cheng's maternal aunt, Han Yue.

"Mom, what time is it now? Why isn't my sister here yet? I haven't seen her in a year and I miss her. I can't help but wonder if she is doing well. Does she have enough to eat? Is she keeping warm?" Han Yue smiled coldly and one could tell that there was a hint of ridicule in her words.

Madam Han glared at her youngest child and said angrily, "Do you really miss your sister? I think you are just eager to show off in front of her. You want to let her know that your family is better off than hers."

Madam Han understood her daughter's character very well.

Before the mother-daughter pair could continue their conversation, however, they were interrupted by the arrival of Ye Fan and Qiu Mu-Cheng.

Qiu Mu-Cheng greeted her grandmother, the moment she entered the house.

"Oh, speak of the devil, here she is."

When Han Yue recognized Qiu Mu-Cheng, she laughed derisively and said, "Where is your mother? Why are you here by yourself? Is she absent because she is afraid of losing face?"

There was a custom at Madam Han's birthday banquets.

Her three children would be seated at three separate tables, and each of them would play host to their own invited guests at their respective tables. That would make socialization easier for the guests.

And Han Yue could still remember what had happened during last year's banquet.

Han Hai's table and her own had been filled with guests, who were there to offer birthday wishes to their mother, and to toady up to her and her brother. Only Han Li's table was devoid of guests. Apart from Han Li, her husband and her daughter, nobody else had sat at their table.

Han Yue had thought that she could once again see her sister make a fool of herself this year. But unexpectedly, out of fear of losing face, her sister had decided not to show up.

Qiu Mu-Cheng said nothing and just stood there with Ye Fan. Since Madam Han had not given them permission to sit, Qiu Mu-Cheng did not dare to do so.

"Eh, you even brought your underling here?"

"Mu-Cheng, well done. It looks like you are doing well for yourself. You even have an underling to carry your luggage when you leave the house." When Han Yue noticed Ye Fan, who was just standing behind his wife, she was both surprised and suspicious.

But Qiu Mu-Cheng looked a little embarrassed and said, "Auntie, this is Ye Fan. He is my husband."

Her words caused both Han Yue and Madam Han to be slightly surprised.

"What?"

"He is that live-in son-in-law!"

"The piece of trash you married."

"I have heard that he has never worked at all during your three years of marriage. He doesn't do anything and is just freeloading off you."

"Mu-Cheng, are you crazy?"

"Today is such an important occasion.

How could you bring him along?"

"Why did you bring him? To embarrass you?"

"Haha~" Han Yue was overjoyed. She started looking at Ye Fan and Qiu Mu-Cheng as if they were performing a skit.

Madam Han's birthday guests, who had come from around the town, were looking mockingly and pointing at Ye Fan as they talked among themselves.

"Unbelievable. The second daughter has a live-in son-in-law?"

"And he is actually a useless piece of trash?"

"To think the granddaughter of the acclaimed Madam Han has married such a useless man?"

"This is so humiliating-"
