A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 516 Won't Give Up

"I said, kneel down!" shouted Xu Feng-Liang again as his expression darkened. He didn't care about what Xu Mei-Feng was saying.

Xu Mei-Feng was so frightened that she trembled and dared not utter another word.

She had no choice but to listen to her father and kneel on the floor.

"Feng-Liang, what...what are you doing?"

The rest of the Xu family was equally confused.

Xu Feng-Fei tried to ask what was going on.

But all they got was Xu Feng-Liang's angry shouts.

"All of you too! Kneel down right now!"

"This..." Xu Feng-Fei and the rest trembled.

Even though they couldn't figure it out, the authority in Xu Feng-Liang's voice was not to be questioned.

"Feng-Liang, does our father have to kneel too?"

"What's with all this nonsense?! If you don't want to die, kneel down now!" Xu Feng-Liang was losing his patience and shouted again. The Xu family all knelt down as everyone watched. Everyone was puzzled as to why the Xu family was doing this.

Xu Feng-Liang took a step forward to look at Ye Fan and Xu Lei seated right at the top and actually fell to his knees as well!

"The Xu family was blind before and offended you. The Xu family would like to apologize formally and sincerely to you, Mr Chu! The Xu family has committed unforgivable deeds. I, Xu Feng-Liang, will bear the sole responsibility on behalf of my family. Mr Chu, please don't punish the rest of my family. Before I die, I, Xu Feng-Liang, is willing to step down from being the head of the Xu family. From now onwards, the entire Xu family will be in the control of Xu Lei alone. Xu Lei will also become the head of the Xu family!"

"Dad, you can't do that! How could you let that slut..." Xu Mei-Feng's eyes turned red the moment she heard that her father was letting Xu Lei become the head of the family. "Shut your mouth!"

Xu Feng-Liang turned and kicked Xu Mei-Feng several meters out when she said that.

"You unfilial daughter, haven't you created enough trouble for the Xu family? I've been such a wise person all my life, how did I end up with an idiot for a daughter? You mean you still can't see what's going on?!" shouted Xu Feng-Liang angrily before looking back at the rest of his family.

"Mr Chu won the battle at Yanqi Lake. In the future, Yanjing will recognize Mr Chu as king and Xu Lei as queen. The head of the Xu family should go to someone who is capable. I have been too weak, so I should step down! Besides, Xu Lei is the only daughter of my eldest brother, so Xu Lei should have been the one to take over the Xu family in the first place."

"This will take immediate effect. From now on, the Xu family will only have one voice, and that's Xu Lei's voice. Anyone who goes against her shall be chased out of the Xu family and never to return!" Xu Feng- Liang's voice rang in the ear of every member of the Xu family.

Xu Feng-Fei and the rest were stunned.

Now they finally understood why so many big shots had been so respectful towards Ye Fan and Xu Lei, and why Xu Feng-Liang wanted them to kneel down to beg for mercy.

So the one who had the last laugh at the battle at Yanqi Lake turned out to be Ye Fan!

The winner called the shots, while the losers had to accept defeat.

The Xu family had placed their bets on the wrong person, so they had to face the

consequences.

But Xu Feng-Liang was quite intelligent. Before Ye Fan said anything he quickly handed over the Xu family assets and allowed Xu Lei to become the head of the family.

Once the Xu family gave in and Xu Feng-Liang gave up his seat, that was the end of Ye Fan's trip to Yanjing.

"The past is gone now. Many things happened and all feuds of the past are erased tonight. Let me drink a toast to everyone, as well as Lei! I want to congratulate Lei for climbing to the peak of Yanjing!" Ye Fan held his glass up at the end of the banquet.

His gaze swept across Xue Ren-Yang, Xu Feng-Liang and everyone else present.

Then as everyone looked admiringly at him, Ye Fan raised his head.

All the authority and pride in the room gathered in the hard liquor in Ye Fan's glass, and he drank everything down in one gulp!

After that, Ye Fan put his glass down and walked out.

He left behind nothing but silence and shock.

Ye Fan used his incomparable might to turn the tides and emerged as the last man standing.

Then he pushed Xu Lei to become the most powerful person in Yanjing with one move.

After that, he just dusted his sleeves off and left.

He had come with a pure heart and left with nothing extra.

Just like what Ye Fan said, he had no intentions to become the king of Yanjing.

He just wanted her to be.

Ye Fan was already married.

He couldn't give Xu Lei what she wanted, and couldn't be with her for the rest of her life.

The only thing he could do was to give Xu Lei a life of luxury!

"Lei, this is my farewell present to you, I hope you like it."

Ye Fan got into a car and left Jinlong Hotel.

He had already laid the path for Xu Lei.

She had to walk the rest of it herself.

He was done with everything he wanted to do in Yanjing, so it was time he returned to Jiangdong.

"If I don't go back soon, my wife is going to scold me. But before leaving, I still have to handle one more matter." The roads of Yanjing were crowded.

A black car tore through the night sky and drove Ye Fan towards his destination.

Ye Fan had already left, but his domineering aura remained within the hotel.

As they watched the skinny man leave, many people shook their heads and sighed.

"Miss Xu Lei, Mr Chu is really nice to you."

"Other men give their women lipstick, money and cars."

"But Mr Chu has given you everything!"

"From tonight onwards, you're going to make all the women in the world jealous of you..."

Many people were saying such things enviously inside the hotel.

Xu Mei-Feng's eyes were red with jealousy and her heart was growling in indignation.

"Why? How could this be? In terms of education, I'm a genius from Yanjing

University. In terms of background, I'm the true eldest daughter of the Xu family. In terms of exposure, I've been to a few dozen countries. Xu Lei can't be compared to me in any of these areas. How could she

be worthy of such a man's attention and I can't? Why can she become the queen of Yanjing and be the most powerful woman, but I can't? I just can't understand, I can't understand..."

Xu Mei-Feng knelt on the floor and clenched her fists so tightly that her fingernails were digging into her flesh.

She continued to chant this to herself in her heart.

She was indignant, jealous, disappointed, upset.

All sorts of emotions filled Xu Mei-Feng's heart, causing her to cry.

But everyone only cared about how Xu Lei was lucky, and how she was powerful and so beautiful.

But nobody knew the loneliness and

dejection in Xu Lei's heart after she had risen to the top.

"Fan, I know you have someone else in your heart and there's no space for me. But I won't give up. Even if I can't become your woman, I'll still be your shoulders. If you are the king and I can't be queen, then I want to become your army general. You can sit in the palace and I'll help you to guard the kingdom!"
