A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) -
Chapter 789 He ls King of Jiangdong!
Jiang Yu-Lang chimed in and said, "Uncle Ya, my little sister is right. Why are you afraid of him? At worst, just come to Jianghai with us. My father is upper management in a company. Given his connections, he can always find you a decent job. Why lower yourself and beg Ye Fan? He's just a live-in husband. How dare he put on such airs? He swaggers around as though he is the King of Jiangdong or something." Jiang Yu-Lang and Jiang Yu-Qing couldn't stand Ye Fan's cockiness, so they stepped forward and scolded him.
After he heard what they said, only Lei San shook his head and smiled.
Followed by Ji Yi-Hai.
Then Lin Ping-Zhi and Wu Zhi-Ming smiled too.
In the end, Lei San's family and all the Jingzhou government leaders smiled.
A sense of mockery swept from their smiles.
They looked like they had heard the joke of their lives.
"Hmm? Why are all of you smiling? Was I wrong? Compared to Jianghai, isn't Jingzhou just a tiny place? Isn't a live-in husband asking to be despised?" asked Jiang Yu-Lang indignantly in an angry tone the moment he heard their sneering.
Lei San and the others didn't give a hoot about this teenager.
Lei Ao-Ting walked over to them. He shook his head and gently laughed as he said, "You're absolutely right. Jingzhou is a tiny place compared to Jianghai. But so what? Mr Chu has the entire Jiangdong at his feet, let alone your little Jianghai. But you did get one thing right. Mr Chu really is the King of Jiangdong!"
"Nonsense!" Ye Xi-Lan and her kids coldly laughed when they heard what Lei Ao-Ting said.
"Him? He's a live-in husband. How could he be the King of Jiangdong? You must be joking! Do you think we will believe that? If he really was the King of Jiangdong, why didn't all the other provincial big shots come to wish him a happy Lunar New Year? Didn't his guests all come from Jingzhou in the end? No one from Jianghai, Haozhou, and Yunzhou came. Not a single one came!" sneered Ye Xi-Lan with ridicule. She felt that they were blabbering nonsense.
After all, Ye Fan was just a lad who was barely past his twenties.
At his age, it was already inconceivable that he could be this well connected in Jingzhou.
How could he be the King of Jiangdong?
How could he?
Who were they trying to kid?
It was just bullshit!
But the boy at the door suddenly shouted brightly from the main door just as Ye Xi-
Lan scoffed in her heart.
"Mr Gao Ke-Xin, CEO of Haitian Logistics from Jianghai, is here!"
"Mr Wang Kai, Chairman of Jiuzhou Insurance from Jianghai, is here!"
"The head of Wuyang Industrial from
Jianghai...is here!"
Hmmm?
Jianghai?
Jiuzhou Insurance?
"Mum, isn't that Dad's company?"
"Haha!"
"It looks like they are here to wish our family a happy new year."
Jiang Yu-Lang and Jiang Yu-Qing were delighted and spoke smugly.
Their father was the head of the sales department at Jiuzhou Insurance, so when they heard about the arrival of their representatives, they subconsciously assumed they were here to wish their family a happy new year.
Although the kids didn't know better, Ye Xi-Lan certainly did.
She was instantly stunned.
After all, her husband was a Jiuzhou Insurance manager, so they were at least related to their family.
But wasn't Tianhai Logistics the number one logistics company in Jianghai?
Wuyang Industrial was also one of the top three for the industry in the province!
Both these companies had nothing to do with Ye Xi-Lan's family.
Why would they travel miles to visit her for the holidays?
"Let's go, Mum! Our guests are here, so we should go out to receive them."
Jiang Yu-Lang and his little sister were anxious, so they failed to notice the look of shock on Ye Xi-Lan's face as they pulled her along to welcome those guests. They looked exceptionally proud.
After all, Jianghai was a provincial capital, and a small place like Jingzhou couldn't compare to it in terms of politics and finance.
Now that guests from Jianghai were knocking on their door to wish them a happy Lunar New Year, they naturally felt proud.
Jiang Yu-Lang eagerly introduced himself to these corporate giants from Jianghai, "Hello Uncle Wang. I'm Jiang Yu-Lang. My father is Jiang Yang..."
But before Jiang Yu-Lang finished his sentence, the bodyguard shoved them aside.
"Go away. Get lost! I don't care what Jiang he is. How dare little brat like you come over!" cursed the bodyguard before he continued to lead his bosses inside. Jiang Yu-Lang was dumbfounded. He turned to look at his mother with an upset expression on his face, "Mum, what's going on? Aren't they're here to visit us?" Jiang Yu-Lang was on the verge of tears.
He thought it would be his turn to be in the spotlight, but he unexpectedly got kicked aside like a dog and ran off with his tail between his legs.
Jiang Yu-Lang was so embarrassed that he wanted to dig a hole and hide himself.
It was simply too embarrassing.
Ye Xi-Lan replied perplexedly, "I...........don't know either."
After coming in, those men stood on both sides respectfully.
Then they bowed and said reverently, "Welcome, Master Ao!" "Welcome, Master Ao!"
"Welcome, Master Ao!"
Their voice surged and merged together.
Then a stern middle-aged man strode in with his head held high with his wife and daughter amid the reverent voices.
"The head of the Chen family and King of Jiangdong, Chen Ao, is here!"
What?
"The...the King of Jiangdong... Chen... Chen Ao?"
The moment Ye Xi-Lan heard these words, she felt as though she had just been struck by lightning and was stunned.
Even though Jiang Yu-Lang and Jiang Yu-Qing lived away from home, they were shocked to hear this name.
They felt as though some formidable pressure had pressed them by their throats.
Ye Xi-Lan's family were dumbstruck.
There was only one question in their hearts.
"Oh my god! Why...why is he here?"
