Chapter 1053 Refuse to Surrender
Baldy Liu just looked at Li Er with a cold smile on his lips.
"Why, you!” But just when Li Er was about to explode in fury, another person in the room stood up as
well.
"The Du family is also willing to acknowledge Young Master Lu as our leader!"
"Du, you too...” Li Er and Lei San were caught by surprise once again.
Before this, Li Er, Lei San and Chen Ao had already talked to the other families and told them that
abouting together to fight Fenghua Group.
They didn''t expect two families to defect right from the start.
But this was only the beginning.
After the head of the Du family dered his stand, a third and a fourth person also stood up to say the
same thing.
"The Tian family..."
"The Zhu family..."
Eventually, almost everyone in the room had stood up. All of them raised their wine ss to give a
toast to Lu Ming-Feng.
Their reverent voices and respectful words rang loudly in the ballroom.
"All of us are willing to acknowledge Mr Lu as our leader! From now onwards, we will listen to nobody
else except Mr Lu!"
Li Er and the other two were all shocked by the events unfolding before them.
These were the same people who had confidently agreed to stand together with them to protect Mr
Chu''s prestige just the night before. But now, they had all changed sides.
"Great. Just great. We were blind to have actually believed all of you! When Mr Chu got rid of Zhao
Wu-Ji back then, he should have just massacred you animals as well!"
Li Er''s eyes were bloodshot and Lei San was furious. They both felt terribly
betrayed.
Li Er finally turned back to look at Lu Ming-Feng.
"Lu Ming-Feng, don''t be too smug yet. Even if all of Jiangdong surrenders to you, the Li family of
Yunzhou, the Lei family of Jingzhou and the Chen family of Jianghai will never surrender to you! The
three of us will make sure we break a few teeth of yours even if we die trying!" roared Li Er fiercely.

Lei San chimed in with a look of fury spewing from his eyes.
But Lu Ming-Feng just smiled faintly when he saw how angry they looked.
He didn''t say anything and just picked up the wine ss in front of him before taking a sip.
His sinister face was covered with a confident and mocking expression.
"Oh, is that so? Li Er, it''s fine if you want to be stupid by yourself. But are you so sure that your
Li Er immediately frowned. "What do you mean by that?"
While Li Er was still confused, the silent Chen Ao seated next to him suddenly stood up.
He picked up his wine ss, bowed humbly and said with much respect, "The Chen family of Jianghai
is willing to acknowledge Mr Lu as the King of Jiangdong!"
BOOM...
It felt like lightning just struck Li Er and Lei San.
They were both so shocked that they couldn''t move.
Their eyes widened and stared straight at Chen Ao in utter disbelief.
They simply couldn''t believe what they had just seen and heard.
It never crossed their minds that Chen Ao would actually betray Mr Chu as well and be
subordinate to Lu Ming-Feng.
"Chen Ao, you...you...how could you do this? Don''t you know how much Mr Chu has done for you? If
not for Mr Chu, the Chen family wouldn''t be what they are today! If not for Mr Chu, your daughter would
have died by now! You owe Mr Chu everything you have today! Anyone in Jiangdong can betray him
except you! You animal! How could you betray Mr Chu!"
"Why?! Why are you doing this?!" Li Er roared ferociously at Chen Ao with bloodshot eyes.
Lei San''s eyes were bulging furiously as well and his entire body was shaking.
Chen Ao''s betrayal affected them tremendously.
All this time, Li Er, Lei San and Chen Ao were Ye Fan''s most trusted subordinates.
After the richest man in Jiangdong had been removed by Ye Fan, Ye Fan had split his multi-million
assets among the three of them.
When Ye Fan wasn''t around in Jiangdong, he also allowed the three of them to manage Jiangdong on
his behalf.
The people who had received the most from Mr Chu were the three of them.
Li Er used to think that even if all of Jiangdong betrayed Mr Chu, at least the three of them wouldn''t.
But reality had really pped him in the face this time.
However, Chen Ao remained silent even after Li Er and Lei San berated him.
He behaved like he hadn''t heard them at all.
He raised his ss and remained bowed before Lu Ming-Feng.
Lu Ming-Feng''s eyes were filled with arrogance and he looked down at Li Er and Lei San with a
victorious look. "Master Er,
Master Lei, what say you now? Are the two of you still going to persist in your ways? I promise you now
that as long as you''re willing to acknowledge me as your leader today, I will not make things difficult for
you two. Yunzhou and Jingzhou will still be in your care. An intelligent person knows the right thing to
do at the right time and ce. Mr Chen has already made the right decision. Are the two of you going
to continue being a stick in the mud and continue your foolish ways?"

Mt,
"Shut your damned trap! What underhanded means did you use to force Chen Ao to give in to you?!
I''m very confident that Mr Chen will never betray Mr Chu!" shouted Li Er. He looked like he had gone
mad.
gm,
The next biggest faction of power in Jiangdong after Ye Fan was the Chen family in Jianghai. Now that
Chen Ao had changed sides, it meant that Li Er and Lei San had a lot less clout on their side, so it was
difficult for them to ept.

iS,
Lu Ming-Feng''s smug and merryughter echoed loudly within the ballroom.
Li Er and Lei San immediately hit the roof when they heard this.
"You''re an ANIMAL! You bastard! You aren''t even going to let off ordinary folks like Mr Chu''s family?!
You''re such a despicable and wicked man! How could you be fit to be the King of Jiangdong and
lead this province?! The Li family of Yunzhou will never bow to you!" roared Li Er through clenched
teeth. Reаd at Dramanovеls
"The Lei family of Jingzhou will not surrender either!" roared Lei San equally
angrily.
Just when everyone thought that Li Er and Lei San would be the only ones who dared to stand up
against Lu Ming-Feng, another two figures in the corner stood up as well.
"The Wang family of Haozhou will not surrender either! I, Wang Jie-Xi, will only acknowledge Mr Chu as
my leader."
"The Xia family of Yunzhou will not give in either!"
Xia Xue and her grandfather boldly stood up and took their stand as well.
They used the little might they had to give off that tiny spark amidst this dark and gloomy world.
But was it of any use?
It wasn''t.
From the moment Chen Ao switched sides, the power bnce had already been tipped.
This little bit of protest couldn''t change anything much.
