The Man In Rage novel Chapter 434

The hall was filled with Xu Mei-Feng's angry voice.

Her words were too harsh. She had used the Xu family's last hundred years of good repute, their standing, their honor and even Xu Lei's dead parents to pressurize Xu Lei.

"I..." Xu Lei's face was pale and she hung her head. There was pain and conflict in her eyes.

Xu Lei clearly didn't know what to do now.

One side concerned her future happiness, while the other side was her family's reputation and standing.

Xu Lei was stuck between serving her family and herself, so she was deeply conflicted inside.

The Xu family was the product of her parents' lives.

Xu Lei really found it hard to make a decision in such a situation.

"Mei-Feng, what's going on? We can hear the commotion from outside. What's happened?" asked a middle-aged lady with a frown as they walked into the noisy hall.

"Good evening, Mrs Xu."

"Mrs Xu, you're here."

The moment this lady walked in, all the guests in the hall greeted her politely.

That's right - this middle-aged lady was the current mistress of the Xu household and the mother of Xu Mei-Feng.

"Mum, you've come at the right time. It seems like my cousin wants to back out of the marriage between our family and the Xue family, and she actually wants to leave with this country bumpkin," said Xu Mei-Feng boldly since her mother had come.

"What? She wants to back out? How dare she!” replied the lady angrily after getting a shock and glaring at Xu Lei.

"Xu Lei, you little ungrateful brat! Do you know how much effort the Xu family has gone through to arrange for your marriage to the Xue family? We've even sent the invitations out and you want to back out? You want everyone to laugh at us? Even if you don't feel embarrassed, we do!"

"Besides, you've been living well and gloriously because of the Xu family! Without this family, did you think you could establish such a fantastic career in Jiangdong? Without the grooming of this family, did you think you could achieve what you have today? Don't you know how much the family has spent on you? It's time that you repaid the family this favor, but now you want to be an ungrateful bum and just walk away?"

"Besides, the Xue family is so successful and is no less than the Xu family. If you marry into that family, you will become a rich and powerful family's daughter-in-law! So many people are after this position! You're just an orphan but you actually managed to find such a wonderful husband! It's one thing to be ungrateful towards our kindness, but now you want to back out of the marriage?" berated the lady harshly as she pointed a finger at Xu Lei.

"Auntie, I..." Xu Lei's face paled even more and she hung her head even lower.

"Hahaha..." Ye Fan started laughing coldly from being angry.

"So this Xue family is supposed to be a really successful family and Xu Lei is supposed to be grateful to you? Since you think this is such a good marriage deal, then why didn't you arrange for your own daughter to marry the second son of the Xue family?"

"Shut up! Where did this idiot come from? How dare you interrupt my words?!" Xu Mei-Feng's mother flew into a rage when she heard Ye Fan cut in.

"Where are the security guards? Slap his mouth and throw him out! He's dressed so shabbily and he dares to raise his voice in my house? I'm going to make sure you know that there are certain places where a country bumpkin like you is now allowed to enter!" ordered the lady angrily.

"Yes, Mrs Xu.¹

More than ten security guards immediately swarmed in. The one right in front had already stretched an arm out and was ready to slap Ye Fan's mouth.

"Auntie, no!" Xu Lei was alarmed by what she saw.

Even if Ye Fan were very strong, how could he fend off so many guards all by himself?

Xu Lei anxiously cried out, "Fan, run!"

"Run?" Ye Fan laughed and shook his head. "Why should I?"

"Wu He-Rong lost at my hands. Zhou Sheng knelt on the ground to beg me for mercy. Why should I be afraid of these weaklings here? It's Lei's birthday today and I didn't want to get violent, but since all of you would rather die, then don't blame me for making things ugly!"
