A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 775 The Ye Family's Shock

The voice of the boy receiving guests at the door suddenly rang through the air.

"Mr Xu Wan-Qiu, CEO of Golden Era Corporation, is here!

His bright voice came like an unexpected thunderclap. The Ye family had just reverted to calmness when waves of surprise surged through once again.

What?

"Xu Wan-Qiu from the Golden Era Corporation! Oh my god! What brings him here?" said someone in the living room with his eyes nearly popping out of their sockets. He felt as though thunder had penetrated through his ears and he shuddered.

"Hmmm? Who is Xu Wan-Qiu? Is he powerful?" asked someone quizzically.

The people seated in the Ye residence were all locals, so they probably weren't even as worldly-wise as Qiu Mu-Cheng.

So when they heard Xu Wan-Qiu's name, many of them didn't know him or where he was from.

But there were plenty of people present, and some of them were bound to know.

Someone quickly replied, "You asked if he's powerful?! That goes without saying! Mr Xu is powerful and incredible! It's normal that you don't know him. After all, his nickname is more famous than his real name! I'm sure everyone has heard of Xu Si-Hai, right?"

Ye Ya's face twitched as he trembled.

His eyes nearly popped out from their sockets out of disbelief.

"Mr Niu...Niu, are...are you saying he's Xu... Xu Si-Hai?" shouted Ye Ya with his lips trembling.

After all, a man's reputation preceded him.

Xu Si-Hai's name was legendary in Jingzhou's corporate world!

By the time Ye Ya started his business, Xu Si-Hai had already been the richest man in Jingzhou for a decade. Also, he created Sihai Chamber of Commerce and was a real leader in Jingzhou's business circles.

Xu Si-Hai slowly made a name for himself because of Sihai Chamber of Commerce.

Back in the day at his prime, the only person in this city who could contest Xu Si-Hai was Lei San.

Of course, due to the emergence of online trading in recent years, Xu Si-Hai had lost his title as the number one tycoon in Jingzhou.

However, Xu Si-Hai still garnered deep respect.

Even now, only two other people in Jingzhou could contend with Xu Si-Hai in terms of wealth and power.

First was the wealthiest man in Jingzhou, followed by Lei San.

So Ye Ya was certainly excited that the third richest man in Jingzhou had come

calling.

"Why would I lie? Xu Si-Hai is the president of Sihai Chamber of Commerce, who remained as the richest man in Jingzhou for over 10 years!" said Niu Ji-Li deeply in a resounding voice. He sounded both excited and in awe at the man.

Since he was an entrepreneur, he naturally admired these tycoons in business circles.

Ye Ya was thoroughly astonished by what Niu Ji-Li said.

His lips parted while his body trembled. He was so excited that his mind almost went blank.

"Oh my god! Even a legend like him has come to the Ye family to extend his well wishes for the new year!" said Ye Ya excitedly. The crowd was all curious to know whom Xu Si-Hai was visiting. "Ya, is he your guest?" asked Old Master Ye as he looked at Ye Ya.

Ye Ya shook his head. Then he shivered while he replied fearfully, "How...how is that possible? Your son only has any reputation to speak of in Yeyang. How could I manage to invite a legend like him?" Then Old Master Ye looked at his youngest daughter, Ye Xi-Lan, and asked, "Lanlan, is he here because of you?"

Ye Xi-Lan briefly contemplated before she shook her head and replied, "Dad, I don't think so. Although my husband is well known, most of his connections are in Jianghai. He barely knows any big shots in Jingzhou."

So all eyes turned towards Ye Tian in unison.

Old Master Ye looked over too and said, "If he isn't here to visit Ya or Lanlan, then he must be here for you."

The others nodded and chimed in to agree.

"Gosh, it looks like Deputy County Mayor Ye is about to get promoted. Or else, why would someone like Xu Si-Hai visit personally? Congratulations, Deputy County Mayor Ye!"

By elimination, everyone thought Xu Si-Hai was here to visit Ye Tian.

After all, Old Master Ye only had four children.

Since Ye Ya and Ye Xi-Lan denied it, then he must be here for Ye Tian.

And no one even stopped to consider he might be here because of Ye Xi-Mei.

She was a divorcee who ended up becoming a farmer, and her son even married into the Qiu family.

Just as Ye Xi-Lan mentioned earlier, even a fool wouldn't visit people like them during the holidays, let alone big shots like the Sihai Chamber of Commerce's president.

Dong Mei felt apprehensive when she heard everyone flattering Ye Tian.

Since he was her husband, Dong Mei knew best.

Her husband never once talked about any likely promotion or being connected to influential men like Xu Si-Hai.

So Dong Mei couldn't help asking in panic, "Did Xu Si-Hai really come because of you?"

Ye Tian contemplated before he said hesitantly, "I guess. I went with the county mayor to have dinner with Mr Xu last year when he visited. He probably came because we bought him dinner. Moreover, who else here can have contact with someone as influential as him other than me? So he must be here to visit me. Haha! Let's go, Honey. Come with me to welcome Mr Xu."

Ye Tian at first wondered whether Xu Si-Hai was here to visit him and had doubts about it.

However, after some analysis, Ye Tian was instantly certain that Xu Si-Hai was here to see him.

Who else could Xu Si-Hai be visiting in the Ye family other than him?

So Ye Tian hurried over with his wife to welcome him excitedly.

"Mr Xu, long time no see. Welcome..." greeted Ye Tian enthusiastically as he asked after Xu Si-Hai.

But Xu Si-Hai unexpectedly brushed Ye Tian and his wife aside like dogs the moment they walked up in front of him.

"Wh-what..." stammered Ye Tian in shock as the corner of his eye twitched hard.

Why the hell did Xu Si-Hai brush them aside without a word?

Ye Tian's face was twitching madly as he felt utterly insulted in his heart.

Everyone was astonished and found his gesture unfathomable.

They quickly wondered perhaps Xu Si-Hai wasn't here to visit Ye Tian. "Haha! Then he must be here for me.

Maybe he wants to talk about a partnership because he sees potential in our food factory?" said Ye Ya with his eyes glinting instantly.

Then he happily told his wife and son to follow him and receive Xu Si-Hai.
