Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Young Master Yan, the most illustrious figure of the third generation of the Yan family, walked in alone from outside!
This Young Master Yan was dressed in a well-tailored black suit and black leather shoes, expressionless yet truly seemed as if he had come to offer condolences.
"Young Master Yan, long time no see."
Standing at the door to welcome guests, Zhu Ge Yuheng and three other big shots saw Yan Chen and immediately greeted him proactively.
Back in the day when Yan Jiu was alive, they had met Yan Chen, but after the Yan family settled in East City to lay low, Yan Chen seldom appeared. Now that he suddenly showed up, it sent a signal that aroused suspicion.
Could it be that the Yan family wants to use this occasion, when both Chu Renxiong and Mr. Scar have fallen, as an opportunity to emerge?
"Uncle Zhuge, you all are not being fair, such a big matter like Boss Chu's passing, and you didn't even inform our Yan family. Do you think that since we haven't involved ourselves in worldly affairs for years, we have no status anymore?"
In such a solemn setting, Yan Chen started with a questioning tone, making it clear he wasn't here with good intentions, yet no one dared to blame him, they could only listen passively to his accusations.
"Young Master Yan, you misunderstand. We didn't dare to inform the Yan family, fearing that your esteemed residence might be too busy to come." Zhu Ge Yuheng said helplessly.
"Ha, it's been years, and Uncle Zhuge, you're still as eloquent as ever. In that case, I hope my uninvited arrival this time won't disturb the departed soul." Yan Chen sneered, striding directly into the villa.
It was visible that everyone inside and outside the villa gazed at Yan Chen with a different look!
It was a kind of reverence from the heart. Back when Yan Jiu was making waves in Binhai, many people here, like Zhou Rongfa and Pan Haoting, were just starting their careers.
Now, even though Yan Jiu is dead, the Yan family remains formidable, and no one knows how much strength the Yan family has accumulated during their years of silence.
"Young Master Yan!"
"Young Master Yan!"
For a moment, the mourning hall didn't quite seem like a mourning hall; everyone came out to greet Yan Chen, fearing they might lose etiquette.
"Young Master Yan, it's been many years, I'm so glad you could come. If my godfather's spirit knows, he would certainly feel comforted." Chu Yan quickly came out to greet Yan Chen with a smile.
"Chu Yan, you're doing quite well now, climbing to such a high position at a young age. It's equivalent to inheriting the Jiangshan your godfather spent half a lifetime struggling to build. I'm just wondering if in the future, you'll sit on top of our Yan family?" Yan Chen shook hands with Chu Yan and asked in a suggestive tone.
Chu Yan immediately looked embarrassed, "Young Master Yan, you're joking. When you were learning from Ninth Master, I had just started my journey. Before you, I will always be a younger brother."
"Good to know." Yan Chen sneered, bypassing Chu Yan and directly walked into the mourning hall, approaching Chu Renxiong's portrait.
"Chu Renxiong, I've come to light some incense for you. When my grandfather was alive, he commented on the younger generations in Binhai and said only you, Chu Renxiong, could become someone significant. Mr. Scar went astray, Feng Yueji was a mere woman, but I didn't expect that you, after just a few years of glory, also ended up buried. Unpredictable are the affairs of the world, how sad and pitiful!"
Yan Chen laughed coldly as he lighted some incense sticks for Chu Renxiong, full of disdain in his words.
Outside, Zhu Ge Yuheng and the four others, along with Chu Yan at the door, were all furious. Yet, in such a setting, they could only choose to endure quietly. Otherwise, it would easily cause chaos, and besides, the Chu Family had just stabilized and should not rashly offend the Yan family.
"Here, this is a token from our Yan family, please accept it. Spend if you can over there. You tell me, what's the use of the money you earned throughout your life when you don't even have a chance to spend it, and you can't enjoy women anymore?" As he spoke obscenely, Yan Chen put the gift money he brought into the Silk Money Box, then turned and walked directly towards Murong Qian.
"Qianqian, I knew you would come today. You've been avoiding me for so long, even when I went to the hospital to find you, you wouldn't meet me. Finally, we meet again today, shall we have dinner together tonight?" Yan Chen said with a smile to Murong Qian.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, in Chu Renxiong's mourning hall, he shamelessly flirted with a beauty, which really was intolerable. Zhu Ge Yuheng was just about to go over to say something when suddenly, from outside the villa, the whistling sirens of over a dozen vehicles from the action department could be heard clearly by everyone in the mourning hall!
Why is the action department coming to join the excitement too?
This funeral is even more chaotic than imagined, with complications everywhere.
"Uncle Zhuge, go and check what's happening. If those action personnel are here to cause trouble, tell them not to act recklessly. Today, no one is allowed to disturb my godfather's soul!"
In front of numerous big shots, Chu Yan directly commanded Zhu Ge Yuheng!
Upon hearing Chu Yan's blunt order, everyone's gaze was simultaneously directed towards Zhu Ge Yuheng, wanting to see how this second-in-command of the Chu Group would respond.
"Alright."
Unexpectedly, facing Chu Yan's instructions, Zhu Ge Yuheng showed no dissatisfaction, and instead, he promptly walked out.
On one hand, he also wished for the funeral not to be disturbed by the action department.
On the other hand, although Zhu Ge Yuheng knew Chu Yan wanted to use this opportunity to assert his authority and use him as a stepping stone, he also knew that he couldn't show dissatisfaction in front of many guests; otherwise, it would make people think the Chu Group is internally divided, providing an opportunity for others.
Considering the big picture, he was willing to swallow his pride.
At this moment, watching the expressionless Zhu Ge Yuheng walk out of the villa, Zhuge Yi, who had been standing among the mourning attendants, seized the opportunity and quickly followed out.
...
Meanwhile, outside the villa gate, over two hundred burly men with a martial arts aura frowned as they watched the roaring vehicles of the action department arrive.
They were all elite personnel of the Chu Group, very unhappy with the action department daring to cause trouble at this critical moment.
Under their watchful eyes, over a dozen vehicles from the action department stopped outside the villa, surrounding half of the large villa.
Then, the leading vehicle opened its door first, and Jiang Feng and Chu Feifei got out from both sides of the car.
"Miss... Miss???"
The over two hundred furious Chu Group elites were stunned upon seeing Chu Feifei appear. They were deeply shocked and in disbelief!
Were they seeing things? According to the intel they had, the eldest miss, presumed long dead in the sea with no remains, had returned unscathed?!!!
Among these over two hundred men, there were also fifty murderers who had once followed Chu Yan and Tang Tianpeng to White Ridge Cemetery to kill Chu Renxiong and Chu Feifei. Seeing Chu Feifei return alive, they were extremely terrified and soul-shaken!
