Chapter 148 Funeral
“No problem, we’re all family now, and these are just minor issues.
Even if I can’t handle it, there’s my dad, and if my dad can’t handle it, there’s the Gu Family; there’s nothing the Gu Family can’t handle in Jiangnan Province.”
Chen Feng proudly patted his fleshy chest, “Uncle Ouyang, just tell me, what do you need me to do?”
Ouyang Shan said, “Dad, Eldest Uncle, I never agreed to look for the Wuhu Chamber of Commerce; we should have just gone straight to our Little Feng. We wasted so much time and energy.
Now, just state your demands. There’s nothing our Little Feng can’t do.”
Ouyang Cheng and his son remained silent, looking embarrassed. The decision to ask the Wuhu Chamber of Commerce for help was theirs, and it had led to this situation.
Ouyang De briefly and concisely explained the situation of the evening, then said, “Let’s not dwell on past matters. Let’s focus on resolving the current issue quickly.”
Ouyang Zhi said with a beaming smile, “Our demands aren’t high. We just want to reclaim what belongs to our Ouyang Family.
The Ouyang Family’s old house is about to be demolished, and there’s a large sum in relocation funds. It must come into our hands, and then we need to reclaim the Ouyang Family’s money from Ye Bufan.”
Chen Feng said, “This is such a small matter. Leave it to me.”
Ouyang De said with some apprehension, “Little Feng, there’s something I need to explain. My mother did something foolish before she passed away; she transferred the property title to my sister’s name.
If we follow national regulations, we won’t get a single cent once it’s demolished.”
Chen Feng said, “Uncle, don’t worry about that. The entire old city renovation is handled by Pengcheng Group, and Pengcheng Group is under my dad. As for who gets the relocation funds, it’s just a word from my dad.”
Ouyang Zhi said, “Really? We don’t need to see the property deed?”
“No need. I already said it’s just a word from my dad. We can handle such a small matter. The relocation funds can be advanced to you by tomorrow morning.”
Just as Ouyang De and the others were beaming with joy, Chen Feng added, “However, I have one condition. I’m helping entirely out of consideration for Ouyang Shan’s Face. Once you receive the relocation funds, she must receive half of the share.”
“This…” Ouyang Cheng said, “There are four of us siblings in total. Even if we exclude Ouyang Fei, there are still us three brothers. Isn’t half for Ouyang Shan a bit too much?”
“Too much?”

Before Chen Feng could speak, Ouyang Zhi quickly interjected, “Third Brother, you haven’t considered who is retrieving this money. Without Ouyang Shan and Little Feng, we have no property deed, and we wouldn’t get a single cent.
So, getting this money is entirely Ouyang Shan’s credit. It’s not at all excessive for our family to take half.”
“This…”
Ouyang Cheng hesitated. He had already had the house appraised, and if it were demolished, it would yield at least five to six million in demolition compensation.
If Ouyang Shan took half, he would lose four to five hundred thousand, which truly pained him to the core. But if he didn’t agree, he wouldn’t get any of the money.
At this moment, Ouyang De said, “Third Brother, don’t be so petty. Ouyang Shan is right; this matter is mainly Little Feng’s achievement.
Moreover, with Ouyang Fei out of the picture, the money we can divide isn’t any less than before.”
Ouyang Cheng thought it over and agreed, nodding, “Then I agree. I’ll listen to Eldest Brother.”
Ouyang De then said with a fawning expression, “Little Feng, the relocation funds are with Pengcheng Group, so that matter is relatively easy to resolve. But what about the remaining matters?”
Ouyang Cheng added, “That brat Ye Bufan, through some unknown connections, has gotten involved with the Wuhu Chamber of Commerce. Tang Jian is terrified of him, so it might be very difficult for us to reclaim the Ouyang Family’s money.”
“What’s the Wuhu Chamber of Commerce? Do they dare provoke our Pengcheng Group?” Chen Feng said with an arrogant expression, “Don’t worry about this matter. First, get the relocation funds, and then let my dad step in to find a solution.
Also, I have important news for you: the Young Miss of the Gu Family will be arriving in Wufeng County tomorrow to inspect our Pengcheng Group’s projects.
When the opportunity arises, my dad will speak with the Young Miss. As long as the Gu Family steps in, dealing with a Ye Bufan will be a piece of cake.”
“Really? Since the Young Miss of the Gu Family will be stepping in, then we can rest assured.”
The Ouyang Family members were all beaming with joy. Although they lived in the small county town of Wufeng County, they were very clear about the Gu Family’s status in Jiangnan Province.
It was rumored that the big shots of Jiangnan Province were all regular visitors of the Gu Family. As long as they were willing to help, there was nothing that couldn’t be done.
Ouyang De said, “Since Little Feng is helping, we can rest easy. Everyone, go back to sleep. Tomorrow morning, we’ll first go watch a good show, and then we’ll wait to receive the relocation funds.”
The next morning, Ye Bufan and Ouyang Lan woke up early. After breakfast, they hurried to the Wufeng County funeral home.
According to local customs and the previously set plan, today
(End of Chapter, Please Turn Page)
is the day of Ouyang Hui and Kang Zhijun’s funeral, and three days later is the Ouyang Family’s ancestral worship.
After the case was solved, the investigating authorities had already notified Kang Lei, Ouyang Hui’s husband, to transport the two bodies back. Today, they would be cremated and buried.
When Ouyang Lan and Ye Bufan arrived at the funeral home, they found that Ouyang De and the others had already arrived.
However, there was no sadness on their faces; instead, they wore expressions of amusement, as if waiting to watch a good show.
Seeing Ouyang Lan and her son, Ouyang Cheng said to a tall Middle-aged Man, “Brother-in-law, they’re here.”
The Middle-aged Man was none other than Kang Lei, Ouyang Hui’s husband. He had been a contractor in Wufeng County and had some connections in both the underworld and the legitimate world.
Upon seeing Ouyang Lan and Ye Bufan, a fierce glint flashed in his eyes. He then strode over, pointed at Ouyang Lan’s nose, and cursed, “You slut, you killed my wife and son, and you still have the nerve to show your Face here.”
With that, he raised his hand and swung a powerful slap towards Ouyang Lan’s Face.
The slap was delivered with full force, but it was caught mid-swing by another hand with a thud, unable to move an inch further.
He looked up and saw that the one gripping his wrist was none other than Ye Bufan.
“Kid, you’re looking for death.”
Kang Lei swung his left fist, aiming a heavy blow at Ye Bufan’s Face.
Ye Bufan’s gaze turned cold. He applied slight pressure with his right hand, and Kang Lei immediately felt as if his wrist was about to be crushed. The intense pain drained all strength from his body.
His left hand dropped limply, and he no longer had any intention of hitting anyone. He howled with heartbreaking pain, “Let go, you damn it, let go quickly!”
Ouyang Lan quickly advised, “Little Fan, let’s talk this out. Quickly release your uncle.”
Ye Bufan released Kang Lei, saying coldly, “Considering today’s special circumstances, I’ll let you go this once. If you ever dare to disrespect my mother again, it won won’t be so easy to talk things out.”
“You little brat, you actually dared to lay hands on me.”
Kang Lei flexed his swollen wrist, then turned and shouted, “What are you all doing? Get over here.”
As soon as he spoke, dozens of people rushed over, surrounding Ye Bufan and his mother.
These people included men and women, some were Kang Family relatives, and others had various tattoos, clearly indicating they were street thugs.
Ye Bufan’s expression turned cold. It seemed Kang Lei had been prepared; all these people were here for him and his mother.
