Chapter 341: He is dead!
In Master Song's heart, Ye Chen had always been the best candidate for a son-in-law of the Song family.
With his eighty years of life experience, he had seen at a glance that Ye Chen was extraordinary!
In all of Jin Ling, he was also the first to believe that this boy's strength was extremely strong, comparable to a true dragon among men!
In addition, he had already witnessed the efficacy of the Rejuvenating Pill and was even more inclined to cling to Ye Chen.
Being on good terms with the Wu family was nothing more than giving the Song family more ways to make money.
However, although the Song family was not as rich as the Wu family, they were not short of money themselves.
There was actually no big difference between assets of over a hundred billion and over two hundred billion; it was all money that couldn't be spent anyway.
And for Master Song, money was no longer important; longevity and health were the most important!
Therefore, he dreamed of recruiting Ye Chen into the Song family as a son-in-law. How could he tolerate others mocking him on the Song family's turf?
Wu Donghai and Wu Xin were both stunned.
No one expected that even after Wu Donghai had spoken so directly, Master Song would still choose Ye Chen over the Wu family!
Wu Donghai felt a burning sensation on his face and hated Master Song to death in his heart. He couldn't help but think, "This old immortal is truly unappreciative! To actually make me lose face in front of so many people! Where is the dignity of the future head of my Wu family?!"
Wu Xin on the side was also very annoyed and frowned, saying, "Grandpa Song, as far as I know, this Ye Chen is just a charlatan who reads Feng Shui! You must not be fooled by this loser!"
Master Song's expression was very ugly.
He looked at Wu Xin and said coldly, "I have lived for eighty years and consider myself to have the eye for people. I don't need you to point it out!"
Hearing this, Wu Donghai's face also turned cold, and he said, "Is Uncle Song trying to speak for this outsider?"
"Yes!" Master Song said decisively, "In my eyes, Master Ye is a true dragon among men. Among billions of mortals, no one can compare!"
As soon as the words fell!
The atmosphere instantly froze!
Wu Donghai was extremely annoyed in his heart.
He loved face the most in his life, and now that he had been squeezed by Master Song like this, he was naturally furious.
At this moment, he even wanted to flick his sleeves and leave, then completely break with the Song family!
The Wu family had more influence than the Song family. If the Wu family publicly broke with the Song family, the Song family would inevitably suffer a certain impact, and the loss would be at least in the billions.
However, he felt in his heart that if he just walked away like this, the matter of his son marrying Song Wanting would probably have no turning point!
Wu Donghai had been immersed in wealthy families all his life and knew too well the importance of a good wife to men in wealthy families.
If Wu Xin married a daughter from an ordinary family in the future, the other party would not bring him any help and might even lower his goals and determination to strive.
If Wu Xin married a star from the entertainment industry in the future, the other party would definitely be like a vampire, desperately sucking blood from him and showing off outside, which would only accelerate the speed of squandering the family fortune!
If Wu Xin married a rich second-generation kid with a big temper and no real substance, it would likely drag him into the ranks of prodigal sons. In that case, even with a hundred billion in family assets, it might not be enough for him to squander.
He had seen too many wealthy families regret for life because of mistakes in marriage.
Therefore, he must let his son marry a virtuous helper who was both beautiful and intelligent and could bring huge help to him and the future family!
Looking around, there was no one more suitable for this identity than Song Wanting!
Thinking of this, he became hesitant and indecisive.
The scene fell into a strange awkwardness with Wu Donghai's gloomy silence.
Song Rongyu on the side saw this and secretly said "not good" in his heart.
If the Song family and the Wu family had irreparable cracks and even turned against each other because of this, it would undoubtedly be a not-so-small blow to the Song family!
More importantly, in this way, it would be even more impossible for Song Wanting to marry into the Wu family!
If Song Wanting didn't marry far away, his future position as the head of the family wouldn't be secure!
Even if he sat firmly in the position of the head of the family, Song Wanting would probably take away a lot of the Song family's assets!
Therefore, he would never allow Song Wanting to stay in the Song family, let alone allow her to recruit Ye Chen as a live-in son-in-law!
Therefore, he hurriedly stood up to play the peacemaker and persuaded, "Uncle Wu, Young Master Wu, today is my grandfather's birthday banquet. As the saying goes, the elder is the greatest, not to mention that he is the big birthday star today. You two must not get angry and hurt the harmony between our two families."
Song Rongyu saying this undoubtedly gave both sides a chance to ease the tension.
Although Wu Donghai was very angry, he didn't want to make things too stiff with the Song family, but he couldn't get off the stage because of face.
Master Song actually wanted to have his cake and eat it too. If he had to choose one of the two, he would definitely choose Ye Chen. If he didn't have to choose one of the two, he would definitely choose both.
Therefore, Song Rongyu's appearance just happened to cater to the deep expectations of both people.
Thus, Wu Donghai took the lead and said, "Rongyu is right. Today is Uncle Song's eightieth birthday. No matter what, we shouldn't ruin Uncle Song's birthday banquet. What happened just now was my abruptness. I hope Uncle Song will forgive me!"
Wu Donghai's words not only gave himself a step down but also gave Master Song a step down.
As a junior, he took the initiative to apologize for the reason of the old man's birthday, which was an act of respecting the old, so he didn't lose face and also showed his respect and reverence for his elders.
In his view, first use this step to ease his confrontation with Master Song and stabilize Master Song.
As for this Ye Chen, he had plenty of opportunities to deal with him. It wasn't a matter of this short moment. After the birthday banquet was over, he had ten thousand ways to take his life!
Master Song's expression also eased a lot, and he nodded, saying, "Harmony can generate wealth. I also don't want everyone to be too unhappy."
After finishing, he looked at Ye Chen and asked respectfully, "Master Ye, what do you think?"
Although Ye Chen was unhappy with the Wu father and son, he didn't need Master Song to stand up for him. He preferred to repair such goods who were addicted to acting tough himself.
Besides, today was indeed Master Song's birthday banquet. He didn't need to get entangled with other guests at someone else's birthday banquet.
Even if he had to fight, out of respect for the host, he should fight outside.
So he said indifferently, "Today, Master Song, you are the greatest. Whatever you say, goes."
Master Song hurriedly laughed and said, "Oh, it's a misunderstanding. It's best if it's resolved! Come, come, everyone move to the banquet hall. The birthday banquet is about to begin!"
Wu Xin on the side was still feeling extremely unhappy and angry in his heart, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Ye Chen was almost spitting fire.
But since the elders of both families had reached a consensus, he couldn't keep holding onto Ye Chen, so he had to temporarily suppress the soaring anger in his heart.
At the same time, he stared at Ye Chen with cold eyes and swore through gritted teeth in his heart: "This loser, he is dead!"
