The Man In Rage novel Chapter 666

Old Master Xia knew quite a bit about Xia Yue's vendetta with Mr Chu.

Now that the Xia family had to forge close ties with Mr Chu, the likes of Xia Yue had to keep a low profile, so it would be best to chase Xia Yue out of the family.

Or else, Mr Chu might get triggered when he saw her.

But Old Master Xia couldn't help feeling sad about it.

Xia Yue was the Xia family's eldest daughter. She was talented and capable, and Old Master Xia once had great expectations for her.

Sadly, she had taken the wrong path with Mr Chu!

For the sake of the Xia family's future, Old Master Xia had to abandon Xia Yue and pin all hopes on her little sister, Xia Xue.

Although Xia Xue was not as scheming as Xia Yue, the important thing was that Xia Xue was much closer to Ye Fan.

Sometimes, rooting for the right team was far more critical than ability.

While the Xia family prepared to meet Mr Chu that night...

A hundred miles away at the Wang house in Haozhou.

Wang Jie-Xi kept sighing with regret.

"Dad, what's gotten into you? The Meng family crumbled. So why the glum face?" asked Wang Yu-Chen quizzically in an instant.

"Yu-Chen, I regret it so much! We shouldn't have taken a neutral stance. We should have resolutely taken Mr Chu's side. Since we were never close to Mr Chu, it was the perfect opportunity for us to express goodwill, but we let the chance slip! I was so stupid! Absolutely stupid!" said Wang Jie-Xi as he slapped his own mouth.

He was beside himself with regret.

He was upset about missing the great opportunity due to his shortsightedness and how the Xia family profited in the process.

Wang Jie-Xi heard that Mr Chu was handing over control of most of the Meng family's businesses to the Xia family in light of their contributions.

The Meng family had been standing strong in Jiangdong for a long time, so their assets were comparable to that of the Wang family.

The Xia family was already close to becoming a first-rate family, so this extra boost as more than enough for them to climb to greater heights.

Since they would control the bulk of those business interests, the Xia family's wealth and power would increase twofold.

Wang Jie-Xi lost all goodwill with Mr Chu due to his foolish ways and narrowly missed such a huge windfall.

"Sigh. Haozhou is right next to Liaocheng. If we supported Mr Chu unconditionally, he would have given the Wang family at least half the Meng family's assets, but now... Why was I so stupid?" said Wang Jie-Xi. He regretted it so deeply in his heart that he wanted to give himself two tight slaps.

In Mount Yunding Villa in Yunzhou.

The villa was brightly lit at night.

All the heads of families who previously supported the Meng family had already arrived at the foot of Mount Yunding.

They all came bearing extravagant gifts wanting to see Mr Chu.

Ye Fan was lying on the couch watching the television leisurely while he peeled some oranges.

Other than Li Er, Xia Xue and Old Master Xia were in the room too.

Xia Xue was dressed in a long snow-white dress as she sat next to Ye Fan. She looked particularly adorable, like she was right out of a fairy tale and appeared as fair and beautiful as Snow White.

"Xue'er, these are fresh oranges. Try some. They are very sweet.”

After Ye Fan peeled an orange, he gave it to Xia Xue instead of eating it or giving it to Li Er.

Ye Fan had a good impression of Xia Xue.

Although they were unacquainted, Xia Yue was kind enough to speak up for him when Fan Zhong-Xian, Xia Yue, and the others ganged up to attack him and ended up getting scolded repeatedly by Xia Yue as a result.

It was a materialistic world.
