The Man In Rage novel Chapter 49

"How is this possible? Only a few hours have passed since our last family meeting."

"How did you get the loan approved in such a short time?”

"And the loan was approved by Miss Xu herself? But how is this possible?"

Qiu Mu-Ying was perplexed. It was hard for her to believe her cousin's words.

The other Qius were also overwhelmed with shock. Even now, they found it difficult to accept the truth before their eyes.

As Qiu Mu-Cheng looked at the dumbfounded expression on their faces, she hmphed and said: "I could be lying. The contract could have been forged. But what about the fifty million in the company's account? Did I make that up too?"

Her eyes were filled with ridicule as she questioned her relatives.

Not one of them could answer her question.

After all, the fact of the matter was exactly as Qiu Mu-Cheng had said. The fifty million had already been transferred to their company's account. Therefore, the loan contract was genuine.

But Qiu Mu-Ying continued to disbelieve her cousin. She smiled coldly and said, "Mu-Cheng, don't be cocky now. Maybe my husband was the one who called Hongqi Bank, and secured the loan for us. You merely got lucky."

"Yes yes yes. It's possible.”

"In our family, only Wen-Fei has that kind of capability and clout. Your husband is just a live-in son-in-law, so why would Miss Xu meet you? She's the top tycoon of Yunzhou, you know?”

The other Qius thought that Qiu Mu-Ying's explanation was reasonable and, one after another, they voiced their agreements.

Qiu Mu-Cheng nearly had a stroke when she heard her cousin's lie.

Ye Fan was the one who had used his connection with Xu Lei to get the loan approved but, now, Qiu Mu-Ying was shamelessly taking the credit for his work.

However, Qiu Mu-Cheng was no fool. She immediately retorted, "Oh yeah? Since you think this is Chu Wen-Fei's work, why don't you give him a call? Ask him and the truth will be revealed."

"Alright, I will ask him. Once he owns up to it, I wonder how you will end this farce?" And without giving her cousin a chance to respond, Qiu Mu-Ying dialled Chu Wen-Fei's number on her phone and set it on speaker mode.

"Darling, this is Ying-Ying." The call had connected. And the hitherto shrewish Qiu Mu-Ying suddenly became as cute as a kitten.

That bit of acting vexed Qiu Mu-Cheng further.

Hmph, let's see how you are going to keep on acting.

"Ying-Ying, what's up? Are you missing me again? Last night..." Chu Wen-Fei had no idea that he was on a conference call, so he did not censor himself.

Qiu Mu-Ying blushed and interrupted her husband hurriedly. "Alright, stop talking nonsense. You are on a conference all. Grandfather and the others are listening in. Let's talk business."

"Darling, let me ask you. Did you call Hongqi Bank and persuade Miss Xu to give us the loan?"

Chu Wen-Fei was stupefied. "What Miss Xu? What loan?"

Qiu Mu-Ying's heart tightened. "The general manager of Hongqi Bank. The number one tycoon of our city, Miss Xu Lei."

"Whoa, it's her? She is one of the top elites of Yunzhou. There is no way I would know her, right?"

"Then what about your mom and dad? Do they know her? Did you ask them for help?” Qiu Mu-Ying asked stubbornly.

“It's a shame, but my parents do not know her either. Xu Lei is one of the top elites.

She moves in a completely different circle from the one we inhabit. Only someone like Master Li Er can approach her." Although Chu Wen-Fei liked to brag, he dared not claim familiarity with Xu Lei.

That was just how powerful Xu Lei was.

"Okay, I am hanging up."

When Qiu Mu-Ying ended the call, her face had already turned an unhealthy shade of green. All trace of her earlier cockiness had vanished, and she dared not speak another word.

Qiu Mu-Cheng humphed and asked, "Mu-Ying, how's that? Do you have anything more to say?"

Just then, Master Qiu burst into laughter.

"Well done~"

"Mu-Cheng, you have done a good job. You did not disappoint me.”

"As your reward, from this month onward, your salary will be tripled."

What?

Tripled!

When the other Qius heard this, many among them turned green with envy.

"Thank you, grandfather," Qiu Mu-Cheng answered with a smile. Finally, for the first time in so many years, she was able to hear her grandfather's praise.

"Hmph, you are just a jumped-up small fry. So what if your salary is tripled? You are still poor and nowhere as rich as my husband." Qiu Mu-Ying felt really terrible but she could only grumble in a low voice.
