The Man In Rage novel Chapter 432

$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 gifts combined 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 flames of jealously blazed 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 congratulated 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't compare 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't compare 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 place in heaven soon. Please accept 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 congratulated 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 had landed 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 congratulate Xu Lei deferentially.

"Happy birthday, Miss Xu Lei! May the phoenix rise and take its place 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 congratulate Xu Lei and felt as though they were slapping her face repeatedly. She was completely dumbstruck.

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