The Man In Rage novel Chapter 1031

Unfortunately, Shen Jiu-Yi and the rest didn't have the chance to speak to Li Er in person or even take a one step into his house.

"Damn Lu Ming-Feng and Xur Shao-Hua! Curse those bullies! They think they can do whatever they want because of the connections they have. I can't believe that they've declared that they're going to acquire Mufan Group. What should we do now? Things have gotten out of hand. It's only going to get worse."

As an uproar overtook Jiangdong, Li Er, Chen Ao and Lei San gathered secretly in a hotel room somewhere in Yunzhou.

Lu Ming-Feng and Xur Shao-Hua had spoken to them a month ago.

The former group of men wasn't from Jiangdong and had in fact come from Yanjing.

The first thing they had said to Li Er and the others during their first meeting had been to demand the trio's allegiance and complete loyalty.

Li Er and the others had refused flatly.

Mr Chu had treated them well. How could they turn on his family and pledge their loyalty to someone else right after his death?

They had thought that their refusal would send a strong message to Lu Ming-Feng and Xur Shao-Hua, and that the latter would be reluctant to expand their influence in Jiangdong.

They had realized later that they had been wrong.

In fact, they had made a grave and terrible mistake.

Within the month after that first meeting, Lu Ming-Feng and Xur Shao-Hua called upon their connections in their vast network of friends and allies and with their immense forces, invaded Jiangdong.

Their target was the company that Ye Fan had founded, Mufan Group!

That had been when Li Er and the other had realized the extent of Lu Ming-Feng and Xur Shao-Hua's ambitions.

They weren't interested in profit or money.

They wanted to replace Ye Fan and become the rulers of Jiangdong.

In that short month, Li Er and the others had thought of all kinds of ways to fight back.

But in the end, they hadn't succeeded in turning the tide and changing the outcome of the fight.

Most of Mufan Group's businesses had already fallen into the hands of Fenghua Group.

Now, Fenghua Group was going to acquire the rest of Mufan Group's businesses and destroy Mufan Group utterly.

Li Er and the rest had planned on assembling the forces of their allies in Mr Chu's name to fight back against Fenghua Group.

But their plan had been thwarted by Lu Ming-Feng's announcement of Ye Fan's death to the public. They had lost their last chance for survival.

The fate of Mufan Group seemed to be sealed. Li Er and the others could do nothing but fret.

They had gathered here to discuss their options.

"Should we get Miss Qiu to make a public statement and tell the public that Mr Chu is still alive? Maybe we should file charges against Fenghua Group for their baseless claim," suggested Li Er.

Chen Ao shook his head. "That won't work. We're only going to invite more suspicion if we try to dispute the veracity of his statement. To only true way to dispute his claim is to have Mr Chu make a public appearance. That would answer everyone's doubts. But that's clearly not possible."

Lei San sighed. "Are we going to watch Lu Ming-Feng and Xur Shao-Hua acquire

Mufan Group? You know they're going to come after us after they're done with Mufan Group."

No lords and generals survived the king that they served.
