Chapter 431 “Birthday Storm (1)”
“Chief of the An House has arrived!”
Under the complimenting voice of the people, this high-pitched announcing sound clearly had a resonating effect on the guests because all had got silent. The mood was totally different from a second ago where laughter and chattery was abundant.
It’s no secret that the relationship between both families were not close at all, compounding the fact that Wang Xiaopeng had beat An Xiang Ran several years ago, it’s more fitting to say their stances are that of enemies than friends.
So, imagine the surprise in everyone’s mind to hear the An family’s chief coming in person to the birthday banquet. Turning their heads, all attention was now placed onto the peachy boy and his uncle.While An Xiang Ran didn’t give a hoot about the extra eyes coming his way, his uncle didn’t think the same, especially when he finally saw Wang Xiaopeng stuffing his face on the dining table.
“Chief An, what a pleasure to have you come.” Coming out from his initial shock, the senior and host for the day hurried to step forward in open arms for the unexpected guest.
“Ahumph,” issuing a dry cough to clear his throat, An Zhen Ning subconsciously swept his eyes to the side where his excited nephew stood, “I am here with my nephew to show him the ways and to bring a congratulatory gift as well.”
After saying that, he was about to let the servants bring in the said gifts; however, his nephew An Xiang Ran had beat him to the punch by rushing ahead for the main dining hall….

Like any careless dote who didn’t pay attention to his own speed, it didn’t take much for the peachy boy to trip over something. Crashing hard to the floor, the delicate box inside the kid’s sleeve had rolled forward, revealing the contents inside with its red radiance.
“Xiang Ran!”Scared to the point of losing his spirit, An Zhen Ning could no longer care about the gift-giving. Running over himself, he hurries to check on the boy’s welfare.
“My boy, how are you, did you get hurt anywhere?” The man’s face was full of tension and worry.
“I am fine.” Shaking his head, the peachy boy was just ready to pick back up the box when something unexpected occurred – an unknown hand had snatched it away from him first!
“Gee, your An House is too polite, giving us such valuable gifts. I will go ahead and collect it first for my father.” Grinning right up to his eyes, Wang Deyi’s ugly smug could only be called an eyesore.
How unexpected for them to use the Dragon Fruit as a gift. If it was normally then we would have no choice, but now…. Haha, the Medicine Sect’s elder will be here soon!
“Wang’s family Old Three,” An Zhen Ning’s complexion got dark, “This Dragon Fruit belongs to my nephew and not a gift, please return it to us.”
He’s already being quite polite there. If was his father instead, the old pops would’ve directly taken action already.
“Chief An, a gift that is already sent cannot be returned, don’t you know any manners?” Wang Deyi’s face was very shameless there, showing every intent to steal the fruit from its owner.
Naturally the people here today wouldn’t miss the odd behavior. Lowering their voices into a whisper, the discussions could only be called humiliating for the host.
“What are you doing Old Three? Hurry and return the Dragon Fruit this instant!” The grandpa roars, embarrassed to the point of wanting to dig a hole and hide in it.
