A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) -
Chapter 664 A Tremor in Jiangdong
The entire Meng family could only get into the car obediently and head over to Yunzhou with the Zhang family. Just as they were leaving the Meng residence, those families who had received Meng Chun-Hua's call arrived.
They were about to enter the Meng residence to meet Meng Chun-Hua and come up with strategies to deal with Ye Fan.
But after they arrived at their door, they caught sight of the Meng family getting onto the car with their faces ashen with an old man.
"Mr Meng?"
"Where are you going?"
"Aren't we having a meeting?"
"Mr Meng? Mr Meng..."
They asked Meng Chun-Hua quizzically, but no one replied them.
Meng Chun-Hua certainly wasn't in the mood to entertain them.
His heart was already overwhelmed with intense terror and hopelessness.
At Mount Yunding Villa.
Steam curled upwards as the scent of tea filled the air.
Ye Fan calmly sat as he drank tea indifferently.
Li Er stood by his side and reported the situation to him.
"Mr Chu, we did as you ordered and completely sealed off all paths for the Meng family, but the Meng family has no intentions to surrender to you. Also, I heard that they are convening with some forces to create an alliance to fight us to the end," said Li Er worriedly.
Li Er wasn't surprised by this outcome.
The Meng family was fearless due to its strong backing from the Zhang family and would never admit defeat so easily.
And those forces of theirs had yet to topple.
The situation in Jiangdong would definitely become more complicated when the Zhang family came into play.
However, in comparison to Li Er's worry, Ye Fan was calm the entire time.
Ye Fan took a teacup and slowly filled it up as he said, "Li Er, what's the hurry? Come, sit down and drink some tea with me. Maybe after we finish this tea, the Meng family will be at my doorstep to apologize." Li Er almost wanted to cry in anxiety when he heard Ye Fan.
"Mr Chu, aren't you anxious about the Zhang family's forces? I told you if the Zhang family doesn't collapse, Meng Chun-Hua will never surrender. Even after 100 or 1,000 cups of tea, the Meng family will neve come!" said Li Er indignantly in both anxiety and fury.
Li Er picked up a teacup and drank its contents in a gulp as though to make his point.
Then he turned to look at Ye Fan and said angrily, "Mr Chu, there! I finished the tea! Is the Meng family here yet?"
Ye Fan smiled without saying a word.
VROOM!
A rumble suddenly rang.
Hmm?
Li Er frowned when he heard the commotion and instantly looked out.
Several luxury cars pulled up outside the villa entrance.
The car door opened, and an old man led many people off the cars.
Meng Chun-Hua, the eldest grandson of the Meng family, was surprisingly standing behind the old man.
Li Er even caught sight of the Meng family's matriarch, Zhang Yi-Zhu.
"What on earth?! Don't tell me... Are...are they really here?" asked Li Er instantly in surprise.
He stared dumbfounded.
Li Er glanced outside before looking at Mr Chu, who was sitting on the couch and peeling grapes.
He was so shocked that he couldn't help stammering.
Finally.
Seconds later, soft footsteps could be heard.
The door opened with a thud.
"Are all of you here..." said Li Er as he stepped forward to ask why they were here.
But the old man who was leading the group ignored him.
He pushed Li Er aside and swiftly knelt towards the skinny silhouette sitting on the couch.
"Mr Chu, I, Zhang Yi-Fu, have come to apologize! It was a family misfortune to have unfilial offspring like Zhang Yi-Zhu, who caused trouble and offended you! Please go ahead and exact punishment on us!"
What?
"The Zhang...Zhang family? Zhang Yi-Fu?"
Zhang Yi-Fu's words fell into Li Er's heart like a rock and raised a tsunami.
"Heavens! Did the Zhang family from the capital come?" said Le Er in surprise. It was all too much for his mind to process.
He knew Ye Fan was capable, but Li Er didn't think he was that incredible.
Even the Zhang family from Yanjing traversed miles to come and apologize to Ye Fan personally.
"What are you waiting for, you dumbasses? Hurry up and kneel!" said Zhang Yi-Fu furiously as he turned to glance at Zhang Yi-Zhu and the rest of the Meng family.
No one dared to argue with Zhang Yi-Fu, given his prestige.
Even their matriarch, Zhang Yi-Zhu, could only nervously give in to her older brother.
After all, the Meng family was keenly aware that they had the Zhang family to thank for their success today.
They didn't feel threatened by Ye Fan because of their connection to the Zhang family.
Since the Zhang family had submitted to Ye Fan, how could the Meng family not do the same?
In the end, Zhang Yi-Zhu and Meng Chun-Hua both knelt.
The mighty Meng family from Liaocheng finally bowed their arrogant little heads to Ye Fan.
"Mr Chu, we are sorry. From now on, the Meng...Meng family will follow your lead. We won't...won't ever go against you again," said Zhang Yi-Zhu as she trembled.
Meng Chun-Hua was petrified.
The large hall was completely silent, and only the Meng family's terrified sounds reverberated through the halls.
Ye Fan turned a deaf ear to the Meng family's surrender.
He sat there with his head lowered as he slowly skinned grapes without glancing at them.
PFFFT!
After Ye Fan finished the plate of grapes, he spat the grape skin out. Then he raised his head and looked at Li Er as he said, "Li Er, see? I told you they would come and bow to me within a day, but you didn't believe me! Now, do you believe it?"
Ye Fan spoke in a resounding yet arrogant tone.
His haunting voice rang.
Li Er smiled bitterly and bowed as he said, "I was wrong not to realize how powerful you were! You won the battle, and now everyone swears allegiance to you. I'm impressed!"
Ye Fan didn't put Meng Chun-Hua and the others in a spot and allowed them to leave.
Although the Meng family members' lives were spared, they were forced to hand over everything they owned.
Also, Ye Fan banished the Meng family from Jiangdong and disallowed them from ever reentering!
The Meng family ceased to exist in Jiangdong.
Chunhua Group was overthrown overnight.
All their businesses became Ye Fan's property.
In two short days, the Meng family crumbled and got chased out of Jiangdong by Ye Fan.
The entire Jiangdong quaked in horror when news got out!
