Chapter 190 - 190 183 Human Ideal Match Xie Shang Publicly Declares Chapter 190: 183: Human Ideal Match Xie Shang Publicly Declares Love for Miss Wen (Part 2) Chapter 190: 183: Human Ideal Match Xie Shang Publicly Declares Love for Miss Wen (Part 2) “Changling.”

So annoying, this man is trying to seduce her again.

Wen Changling doesn’t want to deal with him.

Let him go be someone else’s big brother.

Wen Changling’s attitude was “I’m not familiar with you”: “Is there something you need, Mr. Xie?”

“Jiang Chengxue is a complicated person, don’t get too close to him.”

Some people even spend Mid-Autumn Festival and Spring Festival with others.

How shameless of him to allow only officials to set fires and forbid the common people to light lamps.

Wen Changling kept her beautiful eyes cold: “Who I get close to is none of your business.”

She didn’t want to talk to Xie Shang, detouring past him.

Xie Shang gently pulled on the bowknot on the back of her dress, not forcefully.

Wen Changling only felt a slight tug, then she inexplicably stopped. She faced away from Xie Shang, but ultimately she was a bit more compliant, not leaving him behind without a word.

The bowknot was a little loose just now.

Xie Shang bent down and retied it for her: “Could you wait for me? Don’t give anyone else a chance.”

He wouldn’t be unqualified forever, he would do everything she hoped for, then stand before her again, his only fear was that she wouldn’t stay put.

Wen Changling turned to face him: “Xie Shang, we’ve already broken up.”

“Then what was that night about?” Xie Shang’s gaze carried an aggressive edge, not allowing her to escape, firmly locking eyes with her, “You won’t acknowledge me after sleeping with me?”

Xie Shang really suits black clothing.

That night he wore black too, his hand passing through the gap between his abdomen and shirt, flipping up the hem, the contrast of cold white skin and pure black amplifying the carnal desire.

He personally guided her neck closer with his hands, making her bite.

“I’m not denying it.” Recalling that night, Wen Changling got a little angry, at herself, and rashly said, “It was just a physical need, and you were the one who initiated it.”

Xie Shang was irritated by the term ‘physical need.’

Couldn’t win the argument with her.

She always had ways to make him yield, sooner or later, he would be tamed without boundaries, doing crazy things to please her.

“Fine, it’s my fault.” Xie Shang conceded, softly pleading with Miss Wen, “But you still like my body, don’t you? Then don’t go looking for someone else.”

If the conversation continued, the subject would become more colorful.

Wen Changling saw a saying online, a qualified ex should act as if they were dead.

She lifted her skirt, turning swiftly: “It’s none of your business.”

She walked away first.

Xie Shang stood in the hallway for a while, wanting to smoke, but with the no-smoking sign on the wall, he had to give up the idea.

The restrooms were to the right of the banquet hall, requiring one to pass through two long corridors.

Two girls were heading to the restroom, coming across Wen Changling returning to the banquet hall. As the distance between them grew, the two girls began to discuss.

“That’s her, Xie Shang’s ex-girlfriend.” The girl in the white dress was the daughter of a senior executive at Huaqi Technology, named Cheng Ling, “At the last anniversary of Dihong Hospital, she brought Xie Shang with her.”

Cheng Ling had also attended that anniversary celebration.

“She actually dated Xie Shang.” This one was the granddaughter of the CEO of Hongling Air Conditioning, Zhong Xinran.

“My dad also has a love child, just like her mom, the mistress, very good at seducing men.” Cheng Ling scoffed, “Isn’t Wen Changling also an illegitimate daughter?”

Zhong Xinran thought her friend made a good point, Wen Changling must be the type to use tricks to seduce men: “It’s good that Xie Shang dumped her; it would be such a loss otherwise. She’s completely not his match.”

“What kind of background does Xie Shang come from, how could he be with her long-term? The Xie family’s door isn’t open to just anyone. Even Fang Jiyin couldn’t marry in relying on her stepmother’s connections, let alone Wen Chang—”

Up ahead was a turn.

Cheng Ling abruptly stopped: “Xie, Mr. Xie.”

The corner was a blind spot in the lighting, slightly dim.

Xie Shang stood still, the shadow pressed down from behind to the front, creating an intense feeling of oppression. A mural from the last century hung on the wall, with exaggerated strokes and bold, colorful ink, forming a stark contrast with all the black around him. The artwork was on the left, he on the right, his eyelids half-closed. In the half-light, the outline of his form made the painting seem like mere background.

Half divine, half demonic, was tough to capture the essence of Xie Shang.

“I am a lawyer, you girls do know that, right?”

Not being aggressive, Xie Shang was always polite to ladies.

Cheng Ling kept her head low, not daring to look: “We know.”

“Then why spread rumors about me?”

Both girls apologized: “We’re sorry.”

Xie Shang held grudges.

But if people apologized properly, he wouldn’t be too harsh.

“Wen Changling is not an illegitimate daughter. I didn’t dump her; she dumped me. I’m the one who pursued her, desperately begging for reconciliation. She could enter the Xie family’s doors whenever she wanted to.” Xie Shang’s eyes were too calm, his black shirt seemed to be a restraint, making him appear more composed, less approachable, “If you have to discuss her, please stick to the facts.”

He just stood there, stating a fact, not a single movement.

But sometimes, the assertiveness of a man is just a look, a confident word.

“We, we know.”

The girls’ hearts raced wildly.

No girl could withstand the sense of security that comes with such unequivocal favoritism, even bystanders could be touched by it.

*****

Fang Jiyin heard everything Xie Shang said, in disbelief. What right did Wen Changling have? The man she scorned was the desire of many.

And she herself was like a thief, hiding in a corner, almost driven mad with jealousy. At this moment, a voice came from the emergency exit nearby, entering her ears.

“That love child, acting all high and mighty, even pretended in front of me.”

It was Wu Yue.

When his friends asked if he had any romantic encounters that evening, he talked about Wen Changling.

“Whether her father can smoothly become the CEO of the group or not, he’ll need the votes from us founding partners. If I really wanted to play with her, I bet her dad wouldn’t say anything.”

His friends cheered him on, telling him to make a move, and asked what she looked like.

“She does look nice, and she has a hot body,” Wu Yue smoked in the stairwell where no smoking was allowed and bragged wantonly, “Kind of want to do her.”

If Wen Changling got stained by someone else...

At this moment, the most malicious thoughts infiltrated Fang Jiyin’s mind, taking root so aggressively that they couldn’t be contained. She lost her reason and even thought of a scorched earth approach.
