Birthday Greetings: The Powerhouses Who Came for Ye Nan

The Ye Family.

As a middle-ranking family in Jiangcheng.

Its connections in Jiangcheng were quite good.

It could be said to fall short of those above it but have more than enough compared to those below.

Today was the birthday of Ye Sheng, the head of the Ye Family.

Many people had come to offer him birthday greetings.

Some were on good terms with Ye Sheng, while others wanted to curry favor with the Ye Family.

Every year, the birthday gift Ye Nan gave his grandfather was prepared for him by his parents.

This year was no exception.

"Ye Nan, I thought you'd prepare a different gift today. I didn't expect you to still be so clueless about social graces."

When Ye Tangxing saw that the gift Ye Nan had prepared was no different from previous years, he couldn't resist mocking him.

Hearing Ye Tangxing's words, Ye Nan shot him a look.

That look was like a ferocious beast from the primordial wilderness, exuding an overwhelming pressure.

"Y-you, you..."

Ye Tangxing had felt this pressure before, but now it was even stronger.

He stared at Ye Nan in terror. How could he continue to sneer and mock him?

In the main hall, Ye Sheng saw that almost all the guests had arrived. He raised his wine cup and stood up.

"Thank you all for coming to celebrate my birthday. What have I, Ye, done to deserve having you all..."

The guests in the main hall also rose to listen to Ye Sheng's birthday speech, but before he could finish, a voice rang out from outside.

"Wang Mingguo, principal of Jiangcheng Middle School, Vice Principal Lin Gui, and the school's senior officials have come to offer birthday greetings!"

At these words, everyone in the Ye Family's main hall instantly lost their composure.

Jiangcheng Middle School's senior officials had all come?

This had never happened before.

It wasn't just them; even Ye Sheng was stunned.

"Quick, go welcome them! Quick!"

Ye Sheng was beside himself with excitement.

He hurriedly rose from the seat of honor and headed out of the main hall.

Outside, he welcomed the principal of Jiangcheng Middle School and the other senior officials.

"Principal Wang, Principal Lin, your visit truly brings splendor to our humble Ye Family home."

After inviting Wang Mingguo and his party into the main hall, Ye Sheng spoke excitedly.

The others in the main hall hadn't expected Jiangcheng Middle School's senior officials to come either.

Ye Tangxing swallowed, somewhat unable to make sense of what was happening.

"Family Head Ye, it's our honor to come and offer you our congratulations. You have a fine grandson, something we can only envy."

Wang Mingguo smiled.

"I have a fine grandson?"

Hearing Wang Mingguo's words, Ye Sheng was taken aback.

He knew Ye Tangxing's martial arts talent wasn't among the very best at Jiangcheng Middle School, so surely it didn't warrant such praise from Wang Mingguo.

Everyone in the main hall had heard what Wang Mingguo said.

They were all puzzled too, unable to understand what he meant.

But before they could react, Wang Mingguo led the Jiangcheng Middle School party over to Ye Nan and greeted him.

Hiss!

Everyone in the main hall sucked in a breath of cold air and stared, dumbstruck, at the scene.

Were their eyes deceiving them?

These senior officials from Jiangcheng Middle School had actually gone over to Ye Nan and were chatting and laughing with him?

In other words, the fine grandson of Ye Sheng's that Wang Mingguo had mentioned was Ye Nan?

But how was that possible?

Hadn't Ye Nan merely pinned Wang Lingxi against a wall while drunk?

His martial arts talent was utterly ordinary.

It wasn't just the guests in the main hall; the members of the Ye Family were stunned as well.

Ye Yuancheng and Du Cuiping were utterly astonished.

Their son...

Ye Ming and Ye Tangxing stared with their eyes wide open, as if they had seen something they could never possibly have seen.

When had Ye Nan, whom they had always looked down on, become like this?

Could it be that Ye Nan had been hiding his abilities all along?

Otherwise, how could they explain the scene before them?

But while some of the people in the main hall still hadn't recovered from their shock.

Another voice rang out from outside the Ye Family's main hall.

"Wu Kun, head of the Wu Family, and its senior members have come to offer birthday greetings!"

The Wu Family?

All the Ye Family members in the main hall were stunned when they heard this.

The Wu Family had come too?

Ye Sheng, the head of the Ye Family, sat frozen in his chair.

The arrival of Jiangcheng Middle School's senior officials had already left him shocked.

Now even the Wu Family's senior members had come. Who could believe it?

After Ye Sheng recovered, he hurriedly led the Ye Family members outside to welcome them.

"Family Head Wu, I'm truly overjoyed that you've come to our Ye Family. I..."

After meeting Wu Kun, the head of the Wu Family, Ye Sheng spoke to him with great excitement.

But before he could finish, Wu Kun took over.

"Family Head Ye, it's nothing. With such a fine grandson, it's only right that we came."

Hearing Wu Kun say this, Ye Sheng and the other Ye Family members were stunned.

Was Wu Kun saying they had come to the Ye Family because of Ye Nan too?

What on earth had Ye Nan done?

For a moment, they were all dumbfounded.

After the Wu Family members entered the main hall, they too walked over toward Ye Nan.

"Huh?"

How could the guests in the main hall have imagined that the Wu Family's head and senior members had come because of Ye Nan too?

In their minds, Ye Nan was just a very ordinary person.

Ye Nan had known the school's senior officials would come.

But he hadn't expected the Wu Family's senior members to come.

"Ye Nan, you don't mind us coming uninvited, do you?"

Wu Kun smiled at Ye Nan.

"No."

Ye Nan thought to himself that this was quite good too.

Hearing Ye Nan say that, Wu Kun and the Wu Family's senior members were relieved.

At this point, how could the guests in the Ye Family's main hall still care about raising their cups and making merry?

Their gazes were fixed on Ye Nan.

To them, what they had seen today was a tale from the Arabian Nights, something that could never happen.

Ye Nan had managed to bring both Jiangcheng Middle School's senior officials and the Wu Family's senior members here.

That could only mean one thing.

Ye Nan had been hiding his strength.

Just what kind of heaven's favored son had appeared in their Ye Family?

For a moment, the Ye Family's main hall was filled with envy, jealousy, and resentment.

Ye Sheng and Ye Nan's eldest uncle, Ye Ming, both swallowed several times.

Could Ye Nan, whom they had always watched with cold indifference, really be a hidden heaven's favored son?

Otherwise, the scene before them didn't seem to make sense.

But just as the discussions in the main hall died down, another voice rang out from outside.

"The leader of the Alchemist Alliance and its senior members have come to offer birthday greetings."

Heavens!!

Everyone in the main hall heard the voice from outside, and they could no longer hold themselves together.

Even the leader of the Alchemist Alliance had come?

What on earth was going on?

Sitting in the seat of honor, Ye Sheng also felt dazed, his head buzzing.
