A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 661

"Mr Chu moved in on the Meng family in the end. He sure was swift about exacting revenge," said Old Master Xia worriedly.

Everyone in the Xia family was filled with solemn expressions. They clearly didn't know whose side to pick.

After all, the Xia family could neither afford to offend the Meng family nor Mr Chu.

"Grandpa, I think we can't stop working with the Meng family. The Meng family has the support of an important family from Yanjing. Also, they will be related by marriage to the Zhang family from Yanjing after New Year. Now that they are fighting each other, if we stop working with the Meng family, we will offend them deeply. Moreover, even if Ye Fan is the King of Jiangdong, he only assumed his title for a few months and is still unstable. If he is going to pit a fight with the colossal Meng family, it's hard to tell who will win in the end, right? After all, won't the influential families from the capital be far stronger than Mr Chu?" persuaded Xia Yue instead.

Xia Yue was keenly aware that she had deeply provoked Ye Fan, so if the Xia family took Ye Fan's side, she would fall into a precarious situation.

After all, Old Master Xia would never give a person with a vendetta against Ye Fan any important roles.

She would rather convince Old Master Xia to take the Meng family's side rather than risk getting left out in the cold in the future.

If the Xia family helped the Meng family take down Ye Fan, Xia Yue could remain the family's eldest princess.

"No! Grandpa, I think we should answer to Master Li Er's rally and stop working with the Meng family. Mr Chu is an incredible man, so we should believe him."

But the typically meek Xia Xue surprisingly found the courage to stand and speak up and opposed Xia Yue's suggestion during the family meeting.

"Xue, shut up! You stupid girl! What would you know? This is no place for you to speak! What incredible man? Ye Fan became the King of Jiangdong only because of the karma he accumulated in his previous life. He might be an incredible man in Jiangdong, but he's nothing to Yanjing's influential families. An incredible man? At best, he's a louse from the countryside!" shouted Xia Yue instantly. She didn't think her meek sister would dare go against her wishes.

Xia Xue was so terrified that she hung her head without daring to utter a word again.

"Enough! Stop arguing!”

After a long silence, Old Master Xia finally spoke up.

In an instant, Xia Yue, Xia Xue, and the Xia family all looked at Old Master Xia.

Old Master Xia raised his head to look at everyone and ordered, "From now on, all the Xia family's businesses will cut business ties with the Meng family! Mr Chu is the dragon of Yunzhou. Since our family has resided in Yunzhou for generations, we'll support Yunzhou's

dragon!"

What?

"But Grandpa...." persuaded Xia Yue the moment she heard her grandfather. She had nearly lost all hope.

"Enough! Xia Yue, I might have overindulged you in the past and made you willful and immature and caused you to speak rudely to Mr Chu. Do you know if Mr Chu were present, those words you said would be enough to send the entire family to death? I'm warning you this one last time, if you disrespect Mr Chu again, then you can hand over your title as the family princess to Xue!" said Old Master Xia as his thunderous voice exploded.

Old Master Xia's sternness left Xia Yue pale and afraid to speak.
