The Man In Rage novel Chapter 1046

"A date? In ten days?” Ye Xi-Mei and the others blurted out in confusion.

Ye Xi-Mei had no idea what Yu Yun was talking about. What date was Yu Yun going on about? Her son had been dead for more than a month. How could he have promised someone a meeting in ten days' time?

Was it possible that Ye Fan was still alive?

A bewildered Ye Xi-Mei wanted to ask more questions.

But the young woman was gone.

She had given the crowd only a brief glimpse of her heavenly beauty before disappearing from their sight.

A long silence descended upon them.

Everyone was clearly still stuck in a daze that Yu Yun had left them in.

Ye Ya was the one who eventually stepped forward and asked Ye Xi-Mei in bewilderment, "Sis, is this...another one of Fan's female friends? This nephew of mine has seriously outdone himself. He's not satisfied with marrying a beautiful wife. He wants to surround himself with a whole harem of beautiful ladies. There's the eldest daughter of the Chen family, Miss Chen Nan, and Miss Xu Lei, a powerful CEO who calls the shots in Yanjing. Is this another one? My god, the saying is true. When it rains, it pours."

Ye Ya's lips twitched as he sighed with a mix of marvel and exasperation.

Then, in a fit of anger, he kicked his own son, Ye Jian.

"Why did you kick me, Dad?" Ye Jian grumbled resentfully. His father could shower praises on Ye Fan all he wanted. What had that got to do with him?

"Because you deserve it! You're useless. You're not as competent as your cousin when it comes to running a business or even fighting. The women you attract aren't even of the same caliber. Look at the ladies Fan has around him, then take a look at those who flock to you. They're either escorts or singers in pubs or receptionists at gaming cafes. You seriously embarrass me!" said Ye Ya furiously. How he wished he could send his own son to the grave with a hard kick in the head.

When Ye Fan and Ye Jian were kids, Ye Ya had been proud of his son and convinced that his son had been better than Ye Fan in all ways.

He had been wrong. In fact, there had been no competition in the first place.

"Dad, that's not fair. Yu-Lang's not faring any better than I am," grumbled Ye Jian softly.

Jiang Yu-Lang's face darkened when he heard that.

Whether he admitted it or not, that was the truth.

Jiang Yu-Lang used to think that the girlfriend whom he had met in college was going to be the best daughter-in-law that the Ye family would ever get.

Reality had shattered Jiang Yu-Lang's childish fantasy.

Chen Nan, Qiu Mu-Cheng and that beautiful stranger who had saved them earlier were beauties that were beyond Jiang Yu-Lang's reach.

No matter how hard he tried, these were women who were unattainable to him.

But not to Ye Fan.

Jiang Yu-Lang had sensed from the words that the strange young woman had said earlier that she had feelings for Ye Fan.

But, why?

Jiang Yu-Lang couldn't figure it out.

In what ways was Ye Fan better than him?

He was the one who had topped the examinations, the one who had been crowned the scholar of Jiangdong and the one who had been admitted to Yanjing University.

Ye Fan had started off with a lower position in life and in a poorer family. His academic achievements and his appearance couldn't compare with Jiang Lu-Yang's at all.

Yet, all these breathtaking beauties were all taken with Ye Fan. They had only eyes for Ye Fan and cared nothing for him. Why?

Their feelings for Ye Fan had not died with Ye Fan's death.

Xu Lei's hadn't and neither had the feelings of that mysterious woman.
