A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 93

"Chen Hai-Sheng, the young master of Jiucheng Holdings of Jingzhou, is here to celebrate Madam Han's birthday. I present to you this crutch made of Phoebe zhennan wood. May you enjoy good fortune as vast as the sea!"

"Liu Zhao-Ran, the general manager of Donghua Industries of Jingzhou, is here to celebrate Madam Han's birthday. I present to you a pair of peaches made of Lantian jade. May you live to a ripe old age!"

"Lei Ao-Ting, the crown prince of the Lei family and the young master of Lei Group of Jingzhou, is here to celebrate Madam Han's birthday. I present to you a platinum tea set. May you live to a ripe old age!"

A bout of hearty laughter rang out from the courtyard's entrance.

And several men, all dressed to the nines and looking radiant, appeared before the assembled guests. All of them had smiles dancing on their lips as they walked toward the hall.

Although the new arrivals were just young men in their twenties, all of them had on branded clothes. It was clear that they were from well-to-do families. And just like that, while carrying the birthday gifts in their hands, the young men walked proudly forward under the shocked gazes of the assembled guests.

"Damn!"

"A crutch made of Phoebe zhennan wood?"

"How much do you think it is worth?"

"Several dozen thousand perhaps?"

Everyone was surprised. Phoebe zhennan wood was renowned as the king of wood, and top-quality Phoebe zhennan wood could go for several million per tonne.

"That pair of peaches is also awesome! They are made of jade!"

"Damn! Look at that tea set! Not only is the workmanship exquisite, it is also made of platinum!"

"It must cost at least several hundred thousand?”

"Damn! Whose guests are they?"

The surrounding guests had erupted into a frenzy.

When the gifts were announced, even Madam Han could not help panicking.

As for Han Hai and his son, they were both badly shaken.

The fact that the new arrivals were bringing such valuable birthday gifts meant that not only were they from well-to-do families, but they were also taking this celebration seriously.

But why would they go to such expense? For whose sake?

Madam Han and the other guests were badly shaken. Nobody had any idea who the gift bearers were. And so, when Madam Han was suddenly presented with such expensive gifts, she did not dare to accept them.

"Grandmother, my friends have come to celebrate your birthday. Won't you say something to them?"

Just as everyone was still reeling in shock, the hitherto silent Mo Wen-Xuan stood up from his seat and spoke up.

"Wen...Wen-Xuan, are these people your guests?" Han Hai asked in surprise.

Mo Wen-Xuan smiled and said, "But of course?"

"Out of everyone here, besides the Mo family, who else could command such respect in Jingzhou?"

"Don't tell me you are actually thinking that they are here for Ye Fan?" Mo Wen-Xuan said heavily, his voice filled with haughtiness.

A burst of proud laughter rang out as he stood there with his hands clasped behind his back.

While he was speaking, Mo Wen-Xuan completely ignored the shock in Han Hai's eyes and the fearful gazes of the guests. He simply turned to his wife and said, "Come, darling. Let us go and welcome the guests."

At this moment, Mo Wen-Xuan's spirits were soaring as he basked in the envious and shocked gazes of the crowd.

"Okay!"

Han Yu's face was filled with joy and pride. She lifted her long skirt and stood up gracefully like a princess. After grabbing her husband's hand, the couple walked forward together toward where the guests from Jingzhou were standing.

And then, the couple escorted their guests to Madam Han, all the while chatting away happily. All the guests shivered in shock as this scene unfolded before them.

"Damn!"

"They are here for Han Yue's son-in-law?”

Awesome!"

"That Donghua Industries is the biggest real estate company in Jingzhou

"That Jiucheng Holdings is also awesome. It is one of the first companies to go public in Jiangdong. At the peak of the stock market, the company was worth a hundred billion."

"That Lei Ao-Ting is even more awesome. He is the son of Master Lei San, the kingpin of Jingzhou. Master Lei San is the ruler of Jingzhou, so that makes Lei Ao-Ting the crown prince!"
