Chapter 259: I Have the Ability…

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Feng Qing did not say a word, but her face was filled with sweetness. She opened her mouth and ate the crystal dumplings. Xie Jiuhan picked up another piece of honey cake and said, “I’ll still say the same thing. There are many ways to be filial. If I did all the servants’ work, then what would the Xie Manor need servants for?”

“Jiuhan, I am doing this for your own good. You can pamper Qingqing since she’s young, but she will grow up and be a mother one day. She can’t live like a trophy wife forever, right?” Xie Yuhuan said earnestly.

Xie Jiuhan shook his head slightly and picked up another sweet prawn for Feng Qing. He personally peeled the shell of the prawn and fed it to Feng Qing. Then, he said, “Little Aunt, you think that Feng Qing is a trophy wife because you don’t understand her. Moreover, who set the rules that the madam of the Xie family has to be independent? I have the ability to raise her, the ability to make her a trophy wife for life, and the ability to make her sit on the throne of the number one lady in the Capital forever!”

Under the table, Feng Qing reached out her hand and pinched Xie Jiuhan’s thigh. Who are you calling a trophy vase? How did I become a trophy wife?

Long Yuning felt like vomiting blood. She never expected that Xie Jiuhan would actually defend Feng Qing as before. He even refuted Xie Yuhuan one after another. Moreover, she could tell that Xie Jiuhan was treating her as a servant in the Xie Manor.

“Whoosh… Pa!” Suddenly, the sound of intense fireworks and firecrackers came from outside the Xie Manor. Colorful lights shone through the window and onto everyone’s faces.

Xie Yuhuan frowned. The Xie Manor was built in the rich district of the eastern part of the Capital. There were no ordinary residential buildings here, only villas or manors. In order to promote the Xie family’s status, they had specially built the manor on Xie family’s ancestral ground. It was also the only place in the Capital that dared to call it a mansion.

What made her feel strange was that the Xie Manor was in a wealthy district. The area was vast, and every family was very far away. They were completely alone without any so-called neighbors. Under normal circumstances, no one dared to set off fireworks in the vicinity. Even if they did, they wouldn’t be able to see it. After all, it was too far away. The last time, a neighbour in the vicinity woke Xie Jiuhan up because he had set off firecrackers. In the end, he got someone to demolish that family’s manor the next day.

Looking at the fireworks, Xie Yuhuan asked in confusion, “Which family has someone celebrating their birthday? Or are they celebrating their marriage?”

Long Yuning echoed, “This formation is really not small. Look at the density of the fireworks’ explosion, the entire night sky is illuminated!” Before she could finish her sentence, she opened her phone and logged into a short video app. After looking at it for a while, she handed the phone to Xie Yuhuan.

“Hello, everyone. This is Goodnight Capital’s production team. At this moment, countless bright fireworks have lit up the Capital’s night sky. A peerless fireworks show is enough to be recorded in the Capital’s history…” The reporter reported.

The sound of the phone was deliberately magnified by Long Yuning, so everyone in the dining room could hear it very clearly. Xie Jiuhan grabbed Feng Qing’s hand under the table and looked at her with eyes filled with tenderness and sweetness. Other people might not know what was going on, but he naturally knew. However, he was a little puzzled. Why didn’t Su Yu inform him in advance that he was going to set off fireworks? He could have brought Feng Qing to a good place in advance to enjoy the fireworks.

“Dear viewers, according to our understanding, this fireworks show tonight was funded exclusively by our international friends, Duke Raymond from F country. Fortunately, Duke Raymond is currently at the scene of the fireworks. Let us interview him now.” The reporter’s voice sounded.

Upon hearing this, Xie Jiuhan’s hand, which was holding Feng Qing, twitched. The tenderness on his face disappeared instantly. Although the fireworks were noisy outside, he heard the reporter’s words clearly.

Under the fireworks, the reporter handed the microphone to the blond foreigner and said respectfully, “Hello, Duke Raymond. May I ask how long this grand fireworks show will last?”

Raymond smiled and said, “I’ve already bought all the fireworks in the Capital and the surrounding area. I estimate that they can only last for an hour.”

The reporter asked again, “Duke Raymond, I believe that the netizens are as curious as me. They want to know why you spent so much money to set off so many fireworks.. Is it convenient for you to answer?”
