A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 470

After Xue Ming-Zhi finished cursing away, he hung up the phone.

On the other side, the middle aged man held the phone and was a little stunned. His expression was extremely nasty.

This man was the head of the Xu family who was still away from the capital, Xu Feng-Liang.

Xu Feng-Liang's face was ashen and he was going to burst from fury soon.

He had made a call to demand an explanation from the Xue family.

Xu Mei-Feng and the rest had told him about what happened in Wolong Hotel earlier that day.

Ye Fan had gotten away unscathed and they weren't able to take Xu Lei back.

The Xue family had done none of the things they promised the night before.

So it was only natural for Xu Feng-Liang to be angry. But he didn't expect to just say a few words and be scolded in return by Xue Ming-Zhi so fiercely.

"Xue Ming-Zhi, you're really bold! You're just nouveau riche and you think you're a big shot? How dare you be so rude to me?"

Xu Feng-Liang was going mad from being so angry.

Ever since he became the head of the family, nobody had humiliated him like this.

"Since that's the case, then don't blame me for getting nasty! Xue Ming-Zhi, Xue Ren-Yang, just you wait."

Xu Feng-Liang clenched his fists and there was a cold and malicious look in his eyes.

"Zhi, make arrangements, we're going back to Yanjing tonight!"

"Yes, Master Xu," his subordinate responded.

Xu Feng-Liang took his private jet home to Yanjing that very night.

"So tell me, what did the Xue family run into recently?”

Ye Fan was seated in a private room within the Xue house as he quietly faced the steaming and fragrant tea before him.

Xue Ren-Yang was in front of him and carefully making tea for Ye Fan with a respectful look on his face.

It was night time, so Ye Fan came to talk to Xue Ren-Yang as agreed.

"Dragon Master, it's mostly on the business front. Over the past few years, the Xue family has advanced rapidly and we're doing well. We have a hand in jewelryjade, real estate, pharmaceutical drugs and even electronics. Our businesses cover half the country. But as the saying goes, a large tree catches a lot of wind. So we've also suffered a number of attacks from opponents, but we've been able to settle these by relying on our own connections and some of the students we've groomed at the Longyang Martial

Arts Academy."

Fan asked in a low voice.

Nothing was clear now, but Ye Fan figured that the Xue family would have some suspects on their mind based on their understanding of Yanjing.

Xue Ren-Yang nodded. "Within Yanjing, there aren't a lot of powers that can pose a threat to the Xue family. Besides the four influential families of Yanjing, the rest would find it hard. But of course, there's also the possibility that other powers from outside Yanjing are part of this, or that they have ganged up to attack the Xues."

Xue Ren-Yang slowly stated his opinion while Ye Fan's expression became even grimmer than before as he fell into deep thought.

There was something amiss about this whole thing.

If someone really wanted to attack the Xue family, then why didn't they just launch a major attack and hit them at their weak spots? Why did they use these small and merely troublesome stunts to irritate the

Xue family?

After all, all those things that Xue Ren-Yang mentioned earlier were all small matters and weren't detrimental to the business, but it was mentally taxing on him.

Could the other party be merely trying to build up momentum to something else?

Ye Fan then asked, "Longyang, is there anything big going to happen in Yanjing soon?”

Xue Ren-Yang thought about it. "Nothing really. The biggest thing is probably the underground match that's held annually. According to tradition, all the major powers of Yanjing will send someone to compete. The entire year's feud would be settled at this match."
