Bab 583: Xia Ye Ruined

"Alright! Your family has grown quite formidable, hasn't it?" Chen Lian, pointing accusingly at Xia Wan and the others, raised her voice. "Just because you're wealthy, you think you can oppress our less fortunate kin!"

"Let me make this clear! That's not going to happen!" Chen Lian's voice grew even more intense. "I want everyone here to witness the ingratitude of your family!"

As Chen Lian continued, her frustration seemed to multiply, as if she had borne a great injustice.

Xia He fanned the flames further. "Look here, Third Brother, I've always treated you well. How can you stand by and watch Xia Wan mistreat our Ye Ye?"

Surveying the gathering neighbors, Xia Hai sighed. "Second Brother, Second Sister-in-law, perhaps we should discuss this indoors.

"It's not appropriate to air such matters publicly."

Xia Hai, ever mindful of his reputation, feared that continuing this spectacle would only cause further problems.
