Chapter 189: 182: Jealous Xie Shang radiates a powerful aura (first update) Chapter 189: 182: Jealous Xie Shang radiates a powerful aura (first update) The seating arrangement at the birthday banquet was meticulous, with Xie Yanli and her daughter being placed at the first table to the left of the main table.

“Miss Fang.”

Sitting to the right of Fang Jiyin was a gentleman, the son of a certain entrepreneur, who was trying to strike up a conversation with her.

Fang Jiyin felt hardly in the mood to entertain small talk; as soon as Xie Shang appeared, her attention shifted entirely to him.

“How come the fourth brother has arrived?”

Qin Qi didn’t have that kind of clout.

Xie Yanli guessed, “It must be because of that Wen surnamed fellow, right?”

Fang Jiyin bit her teeth, her eyes brimming with anger as she stared at Wen Changling, “Like a lingering bad spirit.”

How did she suddenly become Qin Qi’s illegitimate daughter?

Xie Yanli remembered the Wen family’s girl from Wind Town who had caused the death of her younger brother. It was just unbelievable, did all of those with the surname Wen know how to cast spells or what?

The atmosphere at the main table was slightly chilly.

A table of business elites and high-ranking executives; Xie Shang’s seniority was among the lowest there, but he possessed a commanding presence that, even without speaking, made him hard to ignore.

The most closely associated with the Xie Family at the table was Chen Qiuchan. Chen Qiuchan and Xie Jingxian were fishing buddies who occasionally fished together.

Xie Shang was conveniently seated to the right of Chen Qiuchan.

“I haven’t seen your grandfather for a while,” Chen Qiuchan exchanged pleasantries with Xie Shang, “How is the old gentleman’s health?”

“He’s well.”

“I heard he’s been raising birds lately.”

Xie Shang did not touch his chopsticks, just sitting leisurely. There were both wine and tea on the table. He picked up the teacup, took a sip, and when he raised his eyes, his gaze naturally swept across to the opposite side. After a brief pause, he looked away and answered the elder’s question, “Yes, he has a few.”

“Do they talk?”

“A little.”

Xie Jingxian had been teaching the birds to talk every day; they could already say ‘Ji Fu’.

After the conversation about birds, Chen Qiuchan brought up calligraphy and painting. He had recently acquired a fine painting and, knowing that Xie Shang had good handwriting, he wanted to ask him to inscribe some words on it.
