Female Novel
Chapter 403 Young Master Chen is Here
“What? Young Master Chen from the Chen Family?”
Everyone looked at each other in surprise.
“No one has ever heard of this Young Master from the Chen Family!”
“Eh-hem, don’t forget that Young Master Chen is being raised discreetly in a normal household. The
average person could never get any information about him; even the Fang Family couldn’t obtain any
details about him—and they used up all their manpower to investigate!”
“Who would have thought that Young Master Chen had returned to the family? And he managed to find
the Fang Family too! This is amazing! The Young Master is almost on par with Chen Jindong in his
prime years! ”
People from the affiliated family were discussing this matter excitedly.
Fang Jiannan took quick breaths as excitement stirred within her.
“Young Master Yang, what is the background of Young Master Chen from the Southern Region?”
Now that the Chen Family had arrived, the focus was not on their affiliated family anymore, including
the Long Family.
As the Second Mistress of the Long Family, Yang Xia was shocked by Fang Butong’s attitude and
quickly asked him.
As everyone was talking about Young Master Chen, it made Yang Xia think of someone involuntarily.
“The Chen Family from the Southern Region is a mysterious yet powerful family. I heard that even their
weakest affiliated family is almost on par with the Fang family. To them, we are nobody.”
Situ Yang spoke reverently, with a hint of fear on his face.
“What? Families like them still exist?”
After all, Yang Xia only rose to a higher social class later in her life. Though her knowledge improved
vastly, she was still shocked upon hearing Situ Yang’s explanation.
“Of course they do! The Fang Family has been competing with the Chen Family using the foundation
that they built up, but even with that, they are still no match for the Chen Family. Hence, they chose to
hide their existence to avoid the Chen Family, while plotting to retaliate. However, due to this, there are
a lot of arguments and internal divisions within the Fang Family. Of course they are freaking out now
that the Chen Family found them, ha!”
Situ Yang took a deep breath before explaining.
“T-Then, how much assets and properties does the Chen Family own in total?” Yang Xia asked,
dumbfounded.
“I have no idea. But there were rumors saying that half of the world’s fortune is accumulated at the
Chen Family now!”
After hearing Situ Yang’s statement, Yang Xia’s eyes widened.
Half of the world’s fortune! What even is this?
As for this Young Master Chen from the Southern Region, who on earth is he?
Everyone began discussing about him in astonishment.
“Yifan, listen, seems like an extraordinary Young Master is arriving!”
A few girls pulled Zhao Yifan into their conversation.
“Yeah? How ‘extraordinary’ is this guy?”
“Oh my god, didn’t you see that even the influential and powerful families are afraid of him? According
to them, the Young Master Chen who is arriving soon owns half of the world’s fortune! The Chen Family
from the Southern Region is very powerful indeed!” the girls gushed excitedly.
After all, girls were always fawning over rich and good looking guys.
It had never crossed their minds that they stood a chance to meet this influential young master.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Yifan covered her opened mouth instantly.
Soon after, nervousness took over the initial shock.
“You were saying that the young master from the Chen Family of the Southern Region, is Young Master
Chen?”
Zhao Yifan suddenly became sensitive.
Her heart ached unknowingly as she thought of Chen Hao.
She knew some of his background before this.
His sister had an incredible amount of wealth.
And she heard that his sister was from the Southern Region as well.
Southern Region… Could she be from the Chen Family?
Zhao Yifan’s breathing quickened.
If everything was true, she would rather die right now!
If Chen Hao was just a normal rich kid, Zhao Yifan could still survive after rejecting him.
However, if he was a man of such status and power, what should she do?
“They’re here!” someone yelled.
The chaotic crowd calmed down as everyone looked to the direction of the arriving people.
Almost a hundred men who were dressed in black walked toward them uniformly.
The leader of the team was an elderly man who seemed to be in his sixties. A young man in a formal
suit stood beside him. He looked like he was around 22 years old.
He had small eyes, and was a little plump.
“Is he the Young Master Chen from the Southern Region?”
“Yes, it must be him!”
The crowd gulped, not daring to speak loudly.
Soon, the group of men came to Fang Butong.novelbin
The aura exhibited by them was beyond powerful.
“Fu, is it you?” Fang Butong smiled at the elderly man and asked.
“Fang, I believe we have not seen each other in five, six decades. How are you?”
The elderly’s lip twitched into a slight smile..
“Yeah, time flies so quickly. Sixty years flew past in the blink of an eye. It’s unbelievable that the weepy
guy who followed Chen Diancang had made it this far now! I wouldn’t have recognized you if it weren’t
for your eyes—they have not changed a bit. It’s been so long!”
Fang Butong exclaimed wistfully, reminiscing about their past.
At that time, Fang Butong and Chen Diancang were sworn brothers. The elderly man named Fu was
Chen’s entourage. With the passing of time, it was not what it used to be anymore.
“Yeah, Fang, it’s been ages!”
Fu smiled calmly.
Even though the Chen and the Fang family had disputes dated a long time back, they were still very
polite to each other on the surface. Powerful people like them competed with each other behind closed
doors.
As for Young Master Chen beside Fu, he was just looking around nonchalantly.
“Hmm?” He saw a familiar figure.
“You’re here?”
“It’s you!”
They spoke at the same time.
The person he saw was Yang Xia.
He was shocked by her presence here.
Yang Xia was astounded—she dealt with him before.
Wasn’t he Chen Hao’s godbrother, the son of the wealthiest millionaire in Suzhou City, Huang
Yonghao?
Why is he Young Master Chen?
Without knowing why, nervousness suddenly crept up on Yang Xia.
“I thought you’re Young Master Huang? Since when have you become Young Master Chen?”
Yang Xia asked with a pale face.
Fang Jiannan was stunned.
She thought he was the Young Master Chen she was betrothed to by arranged marriage.
Yang Xia revealed the truth in front of everyone.
Huang Yonghao was embarrassed and bashful.
He explained, “Who said I am Young Master Chen? I am just here for fun.”
“So it wasn’t him. Then where is Young Master Chen?” The crowd gasped.
“Fang, there are two reasons why we came here today. First is to represent the Chen Family, along
with Young Master Chen, to present you a birthday gift. Our master has regrets over what happened
these years, and he hoped to speak to the Fang Family in person. However, many years have passed
and we still couldn’t get any information about the whereabouts of the Fang Family.”
Fu smiled and continued. “Don’t worry Fang. With the Chen Family here, no one would dare to step out
of line at your birthday celebration! ”
Situ Hong and the rest gulped and took a step back involuntarily.
“The second reason for being here is, we want to fetch Miss Ziyue and Lady Mengxin back to the Chen
Family. The lady is our master’s sister, and Miss Ziyue is a part of our family; I’m sure you will
understand!”
Fang Butong took a deep breath.
Since everything had escalated to this point, and the Chen Family took the trouble to come all the way
here, it was likely that they were prepared.
Looking at the big picture, Fang Butong could not say anything else.
Especially now that the Fang Family was exposed, they were facing imminent danger. However, the
Fang Family had a trump card which was very important to Chen Jindong. They were sure Chen
Jindong would not risk it.
If both parties could discuss and come to an agreement, it would be the best outcome.
“Of course, of course!” Fang Butong nodded.
“Fu, the Fang Family and the Chen Family had been equals in the past. You claimed that Young Master
Chen came to celebrate my birthday, but he is not here today. Yet you want me to send my daughter
and granddaughter over to the Chen Family. This is a little unreasonable.”
Fang Butong spoke while looking at Fu intently.
“Oh, who said our Young Master Chen is not here? In fact, he was here a day before for your birthday!”
Fu laughed and said merrily.
“What? Young Master Chen is already here?”
Fang Butong was startled.
“Young Master Chen is here? Where is he?”
The crowd discussed among themselves frantically.
