The Man In Rage novel Chapter 650

Inside Haiyuan Restaurant

Before the banquet commenced, Li Er was giving his son serious instructions inside the room.

"Don't worry, Dad, I'll definitely be the first to offer a toast!" said Li Zi-Yang confidently as he patted his chest and looked determined.

"Ao-Ting, you can't lose out. When Mr Chu comes up, you must make sure you give Mr Chu a toast before Zi-Yang does and express the Lei family's loyalty!" said Lei San to Lei Ao-Ting while Li Er was instructing his own son.

Li Er's eyes widened angrily as he cursed Lei San for trying to steal the limelight on his territory.

He wanted Lei Ao-Ting to cut in front of his son?

Lei San was clearly trying to pick a fight with him.

In his anger, Li Er snapped, "Lei San, what do you mean by that? We've got to respect a certain order when it comes to this. We agreed that my son would lead the way, so don't get Ao-Ting to mess it up. Everyone should line up and go up to Mr Chu one by one.”

"Oh please, Li Er, who agreed with you on this?" Lei San didn't bother being polite and waved his arms about. "Who goes first is very important, so I can give in to you on any other matters except this one. We'll just see who is more capable!"

"You!" Li Er was livid.

Li Zi-Yang consoled his father, "Dad, don't worry, being the first in line is the glory that belongs to me, so I won't let anyone else snatch it away."

Lei Ao-Ting wasn't going to give way either, so he quickly promised his father, "Dad, don't worry, I won't let you down!"

While Li Er and Lei San were still arguing over this matter, some of the other families were also instructing their children to go up and give a toast to Mr

Chu.

"Yue'er, Xue'er, the two of you are the most outstanding of your generation in the Xia family. Remember to do well when you give Mr Chu a toast. Whether we get the support of Mr Chu or not depends on today. Also, I heard that Mr Chu is someone of your generation, so perhaps after today's banquet, one of you might rise to become a phoenix," said Old Master Xia as he looked at his two favorite granddaughters.

The old man didn't say it out explicitly, but what he was hinting at was very obvious.

Someone joked from the side, "Mr Xia, you're setting up a honeypot trap? If my two nieces can catch the attention of Mr Chu and become a phoenix in the future, don't forget your uncles, alright? HAHA!"

The whole room was filled with laughter.

These rich and powerful men who were usually the ones in the highest position were now thinking of all means and ways to gain Mr Chu's favor and help to pave the way for their descendants' future.

Li Er was so insistent that Li Zi-Yang got the first toast because he also wanted to recommend his son to Ye Fan.

After all, if the Li family wanted to continue prospering, Li Er had to groom his son.

But while everyone was laughing merrily, Chen Ao remained calm and didn't seem interested in being the first in line to toast Mr Chu.

"Mr Chen, aren't you going to ask your daughter to give it a shot?” Wang Jie-Xi from Haozhou started to add fuel to the fire, as if this wasn't big enough of a mess yet.

Mr Chu was now the leader of Jiangdong.

The ones next in line were Li Er, Chen Ao and Lei San.
