    Since they were family, they ought to put on a united front.

    After they realized that he wasn''t acquainted with Ye Tian, Ye Ya went over with his wife and son to


    wee him.


    "Mr Xu, sorry for not receiving you at the door. We should be the ones visiting you, considering how


    reputable you are. How could you have taken the trouble toe personally?" said Ye Ya as he asked


    after Xu Si-Hai from some distance away.


    Ye Jian even called him ''Uncle Xu'' nonstop ingratiatingly.


    Judging from their tone of voice, Xu Si-Hai reckoned they were probably one of the Ye family members.


    So he stopped and smiled as he replied, "You''re too kind. I can''tpare to Mr Chu in terms of


    reputation, so I should be the one visiting him."


    Ye Ya''s family were surprised by his reply once more.


    Mr Chu?


    Mr Chu again?


    Didn''t Gu Jia-Xiang say he was visiting Mr Chu too?


    But what on earth was going on?


    This was the old Ye residence, so how could there be anyone going by Chu here?


    Ye Ya''s face turned dark, but he put on a forced smiled and asked politely, "Mr Xu, are you sure you


    are here looking for Mr Chu? But this is the Ye residence, so most of us go by Ye. How can there be


    anyone going by Chu here?" Ye Ya smiled as he spoke.


    Everyone just looked on in confusion as they waited for what would happen next.


    But no one noticed the mysterious smile on a beautiful girl''s face as she sat in the living room drinking


    tea with her head


    lowered.


    The stunning girl with smiling eyes was Ye Fan''s wife, Qiu Mu-Cheng.


    And the only person who was capable of smiling was this Queen of Jiangdong.


    The rest of them might not know better, but Qiu Mu-Cheng certainly did.


    This so-called Mr Chu was none other than her husband, Ye Fan.


    "He''s so awful. Everywhere he goes, he brings chaos. Would it kill him to stay out of the spotlight?"


    thought Qiu Mu-Cheng as she shook her head and recalled how familiar this scene appeared.


    Didn''t Ye Fan do the same thing in Yunzhou, keeping everyone in the dark while he bluffed them?


    Qiu Mu-Cheng was once badly deceived by Ye Fan too.


    In hindsight, Qiu Mu-Cheng couldn''t me Ye Fan for the misunderstanding.


    After all, Ye Fan told Qiu Mu-Cheng countless times that he was Mr Chu, but she didn''t buy it.


    If she didn''t witness it first hand at the Feast of the Sea and Sky, Qiu Mu-Cheng would never believe


    that the unknown and submissive man who married into the Qiu family was the renowned King of


    Jiangdong, Mr Chu.


    "But his surname is clearly Ye, so why did he make everyone call him Mr Chu?" wondered Qiu Mu-


    Cheng quizzically.


    However, Qiu Mu-Cheng had no clue that Ye Fan''s real surname was Chu.


    Qiu Mu-Cheng smiled from inside the residence. Then Xu Si-Hai nodded and replied Ye Ya in the


    courtyard, "Well, he goes by Mr Ye too."


    The corner of Ye Ya''s eyes instantly twitched when he heard these familiar words.


    He briefly went quiet before he probed, "Then are you here to see my older brother,


    Ye Tian?"


    "Ye Tian?" replied Xu Si-Hai as he frowned, "Who''s Ye Tian? I''m here to pay my respects to Mr Ye."


    Despite Ye Jian''s silence, he already had an ominous feeling about this.


    Then he pointed into the courtyard and asked softly with his voice shaking, "Are you talking about


    him?"


    Xu Si-Hai immediately looked in the direction he was pointing.


    Then he caught sight of a skinny man sitting inside quietly as he drank tea.


    His handsome face was filled with calmness and indifference.


    Xu Si-Hai was instantly overjoyed to see him. He ignored Ye Ya and his son and quickly strode towards


    Ye Fan.


    "Oh wow, it''s been a while since west met at the Feast of the Sea and Sky. I specially came to visit


    when I heard Mr


    Chu was in Jingzhou. On behalf of Golden Era Corporation, I wish you a happy Lunar New Year. I hope


    everything goes well for you in theing year and that you will enjoy good fortune!" said Xu Si-Hai as


    he stepped forward and bowed to Ye Fan.


    His deferential voice and bowing struck everyone like an unexpected thunderp and exploded


    throughout the Ye residence.


    Everyone was caught by surprise andpletely dumbstruck.


    No one anticipated the CEO of Golden Era Corporation and president of Sihai Chamber of Commerce


    toe for the sake of Ye Fan.


    In an instant, the Ye residence fell into aplete silence leaving only Xu Si-Hai''s reverent voice


    reverberating through the air.


    But Ye Fan remained calm.


    Despite the presence of such a prestigious man from the business circles, Ye Fan remained


    expressionless and calm.


    He seemed like an emperor looking down calmly at his subjects.


    He didn''t invite Xu Si-Hai to have a seat or even ask after him.


    Ye Fan merely replied indifferently after Xu Si-Hai paid his respects, "Were you sent by Lei San as


    well?"


    Xu Si-Hai nodded and replied, "That''s right. How would we know you were here if Master Lei didn''t tell


    us? Master Lei is escorting the jade and will be here soon. He wanted us toe over and wish you


    and your rtives a happy new year first."


    Ye Fan nodded before smiling to reply, "Lei San is a smart man. Enough. If you want to wish us a


    happy new year, go ahead. My mother, wife, and grandfather are sitting inside.”


    "In that case, I''ll go in right away, Mr Chu," replied Xu Si-Hai respectfully before he took the gifts and


    went into the residence.


    Not many people were sitting in the living room.


    Xu Si-Hai looked around and said to Ye Xi-Mei, "You must be Mr Ye''s mother, right?"


    After Ye Xi-Mei nodded, Xu Si-Hai said reverently, "I''m Xu Wan-Qiu. I''m here to wish you a happy new


    year. Here''s a little gift for you. I hope you like it."


    Xu Si-Hai looked at Ye Xi-Lan after giving the gift and continued, "You must be Mr Ye''s wife, right?"


    The atmosphere froze the moment Xu Si-Hai finished his sentence.


    And Ye Xi-Lan''s face darkened.


    She never dreamt that someone would one day mistake her as her useless nephew''s wife.


    Jiang Yu-Lang and Jiang Yu-Qing looked uneasy. They looked at their mother before ncing at Ye


    Fan.


    If their mother was Ye Fan''s wife, wouldn''t that make Ye Fan their father?


    That would be simply insane!


    Ye Xi-Lan suppressed the fury in her heart before she gritted her teeth and replied, "I''m his aunt!"
