Chapter 432 So d to Have Met You


    $50 million?


    The silver tea set which Master Wang gave her as a birthday present was worth $100,000 at best.


    But Master Wang was giving Xu Lei the Phoenix Jade Pendant that was worth several million now.


    The Phoenix Jade Pendant alone could probably surpass the value of all her giftsbined tonight.


    After all, despite the huge number of guests present, no one gave anything expensive.


    Even the best gift was only worth a million.


    And most of them gave her presents worth between $100,000 to $200,000.


    But just the Phoenix Jade Pendant alone was worth several million, so along with the Four Dragon


    Square Tripod, it was easily worth a lifetime of Xu Mei-Feng''s birthday presents.


    The mes of jealously zed even more wildly in Xu Mei-Feng''s heart at the thought of that.


    But what gave Xu Lei the right?


    How was that damned Xu Lei good enough?

    Xu Mei-Feng was clearly the eldest daughter of the Xu family and the true phoenix of the household.


    Xu Lei was just an orphan. How could she deserve to be a phoenix?


    Xu Mei-Feng clutched her fists tightly out of jealousy and fury, and her eyes became bloodshot.


    "Miss Xu, calm down. He''s just an old man and probably congratted Xu Lei for her birthday for the


    sake of the Four Dragon Square Tripod. Only this old man was blind enough to do it, so it means


    nothing. Look at the rest of the guests, nobody else is bothered with Xu Lei. Since only two people


    came to celebrate her birthday, there''s no way she can steal your limelight," said the butler to Xu Mei-


    Feng as he smiled and persuaded her.


    The fury in Xu Mei-Feng''s heart subsided slightly when she heard him.


    All the guests came for her tonight.


    She was the star of the show.


    So even if Xu Lei received expensive gifts tonight, only two people came bearing gifts for her anyway.


    Xu Lei still couldn''tpare to her!


    But Xu Mei-Feng didn''t have the chance to remain haughty for long.


    One of the rich men could no longer stay put and walked towards Xu Lei.


    "Miss Xu Lei, I''m sorry. We didn''t know it was your birthday too. I have this Swiss-made pure gold


    pocket watch here. Although it can''tpare to Master Wang''s Phoenix Jade Pendant or this


    gentleman''s Four Dragon Square Tripod, it''s a little something from the T''ang family from the south of


    the city. I wish Miss Xu a very happy birthday and hope that the phoenix will rise and take its ce in


    heaven soon. Please ept it, Miss Xu."


    The man''s respectful voice quietly rang through the hall.


    Xu Mei-Feng''s face instantly turned pale and her eyes twitched in surprise.


    "Uncle T''ang, what is the meaning of this?" asked Xu Mei-Feng.


    Very quickly, another man stood up.


    He walked over to Xu Lei and congratted her respectfully before offering his gift.


    "Happy birthday, Miss Xu Lei!"


    Then a second person walked over, followed by a third and a fourth.


    It was like a rock hadnded in the ocean and raised a giant wave. In an instant, all the guests in the


    hall who came to celebrate Xu Mei-Feng''s birthday all rose to congratte Xu Lei deferentially.


    "Happy birthday, Miss Xu Lei! May the phoenix rise and take its ce in heaven!"


    "Happy birthday, Miss Xu Lei!"


    Their voices surged nonstop as they rang through the halls.


    And converged into a river and struck the earth hard.


    Some of them took their personal treasures and gave them to Xu Lei, just like Master Wang did. Also,


    some people sent men to buy one or rang home for someone to send one. Some of them even went up


    to them to retrieve the presents they presented Xu Mei-Feng and gave them to Xu Lei instead.


    "This...this..."


    Xu Mei-Feng watched as each rich and powerful guest came forward to congratte Xu Lei and felt as


    though they were pping her face repeatedly. She waspletely dumbstruck.


    Her face blushed crimson, and there was a look of disbelief in her eyes.


    "What are all of you doing? I''m the eldest daughter of the Xu family! I''m the true phoenix of the Xu


    family! I''m the true heir of the Xu family! You came to celebrate my birthday, but why are you


    congratting her now?!” shrieked Xu Mei-Feng almost hysterically.


    But her tiny voice was quickly flooded by their overwhelming congrattory words and didn''t even


    cause a ripple.


    Xu Mei-Feng couldn''t wrap her mind around it. Why did all the guests suddenly celebrate Xu Lei''s


    birthday?


    But she had no idea about the thoughts that were going through their minds.


    Many of the guests already surmised there would be major upheaval within the Xu family the moment


    Ye Fan gave Xu Lei the Four Dragon Square Tripod.


    Was Xu Mei-Feng no longer the heir to the family?


    After all, many people were in the know about what went on in the Xu family.


    Xu Lei''s father was initially the head of the Xu family.


    Then he met with an ident, and the title fell into the hands of Xu Mei-Feng''s family.


    But Xu Lei was the true heir of the Xu family.


    Now that someone presented Xu Lei with the Four Dragon Square Tripod, many of the guests naturally


    started specting.


    After all, if Xu Lei wasn''t about to control the Xu family, no one would give her gift worth millions.


    Also, Master Wang also presented her with the Phoenix Jade Pendant and said Xu Lei was the Xu


    family''s phoenix.


    In that instant, everyone was sure that the title of the Xu family''s heir was about to change hands.


    So everyone flocked over to wish Xu Lei a happy birthday.


    But it probably didn''t cross their minds that they were overthinking this entire matter.


    Ye Fan had merely presented her with a gift for old time''s sake.


    And Master Wang gave Xu Lei the gift to butter up to her so that he could attempt to acquire the Four


    Dragon Square Tripod from her in the future.


    But regardless of their reasons, it made all the guests in the hall flock over to wish her happy birthday.


    As the star attraction, Xu Lei was undoubtedly shocked.


    Xu Lei thought no one would remember her birthday at all today.


    She didn''t see this turn of eventsing, and now all the guests were fighting to wish her a happy


    birthday.


    Xu Lei undoubtedly stole the spotlight


    instantly.


    Xu Leipletely transformed into the brightest star in the hall.


    This happiness came as such a surprise to her.


    Xu Lei felt even more grateful of Ye Fan and was so d that he was around.


    Ye Fan saved her when she was bullied back in the day.


    Now Ye Fan hade to chase the murky haze lingering over her during the darkest time of her life.


    He was like a ray of light shining down on her entire world.


    "Fan, I''m so d that I met you," said Xu Lei as she blissfully smiled while everyone gave her their well


    wishes.


    No one knew how angry and hysterical Xu Mei-Feng was after she was brushed off.


    She clenched her fists so tightly that her nails almost dug right into her flesh.


    Xu Mei-Feng had been nning this birthday banquet for months. She wanted to ce herself in the


    spotlight and humiliate Xu Lei at the same time.


    Who would have expected such an ending?


    Xu Mei-Feng lost the limelight, and Xu Lei snatched everything from under her nose after all the effort


    she made.


    Fury!


    Envy!


    Resentment!


    All sorts of emotions flooded in Xu Mei-Feng''s heart.
