Chapter 194 - Kill the Chicken to Scare the Monkeys (1/2)

At this moment, Xin Zhen glanced over at Xin Jiasheng. This matter was the latter’s fault. At the same time, Xin Jiasheng was forced to stand up.

“Grandfather, he’s here!”

“Oh? Then, I want to see him!” Xin Zhen said quietly, casting a sweeping gaze over the crowd. Those who were in his way quickly and involuntarily lowered their heads.

His power and status made these people not want to directly face him!

After looking around, he still did not see anyone. His brows furrowed and his lips curled into a snarl. He was definitely unhappy now!

Xin Jiasheng’s heart skipped a few beats. Feeling a little afraid, he quickly used his vantage point to scan the crowd and soon found Qin Feng in the far back.

“Qin Feng!” Xin Jiasheng could not believe that even at a time like this Qin Feng was just eating and had absolutely zero regard for the Xin family.

Following Xin Jiasheng’s gaze, everyone else noticed Qin Feng’s presence and turned their heads. Those that were blocking the way began to move away, making a path that allowed Xin Zhen’s direct line of sight to fall upon the two at the back.

“We can eat later, the head of the family is inviting us over!” Qin Feng said with a smile.

“Oh, okay!” Bai Li stuck out her little tongue and licked the grease stains from the corners of her mouth. Her lips were red and alluring.

The surrounding people’s gazes were momentarily focused on the two, with the exception of the Xin family’s table. They watched with narrowed eyes and sullen faces.

Qin Feng’s behavior told them that he did not hold them in high regard, but at this time he had already reached the table with Bai Li at his side.

“It’s a great honor to have been invited to the head of the Xin household’s birthday banquet. May your luck be as immense as the East Sea and I wish you a Happy Birthday and many more to come!” Qin Feng said.

It was merely words of blessing, he bore no gifts in his hands. The others momentarily felt a smoky aura permeating the area.

Xin Zhen’s face fell, the corner of his mouth twisted into a sneer. This person’s presentation, his demeanor, was provoking him.

“Mayor Qin is currently developing Fengli colony and he’s taking time out of his busy schedule. Affairs are always difficult, but we, the Xin family, can help. In the future, we’ll invest twenty percent of the shares in Fengli colony.”

The people around them were all holding their breaths.

Only the percentage was mentioned but not the exact amount of money. This was obviously an attempt to grind Qin Feng’s gears.

Qin Feng smiled, making himself seem completely unfazed.

“Based on what Master Xin has said, would it be considered my gift for your birthday?” Qin Feng asked.

Xin Zhen smirked, realizing that Qin Feng actually had quite an acute perception. “That’s generous of you!”

Qin Feng continued, “Of course, it just depends on whether or not Master Xin is able to stomach it. I’ll consider if it’s twenty billion worth of investment!”

Was one colony worth twenty billion?

Of course, even the s.p.a.ce stabilization device was worth this much, but Fengli colony was near to Chengyang City so it also had to provide some benefits in return to Bai Tianyang and had the obligation to obey the man as well.

Furthermore, investing in construction alone, twenty billion was too much. After the end times, building material and human labor were dirt cheap.

Having heard his response, the Xin family members were certainly aware that he was trying to embarra.s.s them.

Xin Zhen’s face fell upon hearing his words.

“Young people, always so impulsive. You still have time to think. It’s obviously boring to just start eating at the beginning of a birthday feast, so how about we go to the backyard and enjoy some combat?”

“Yes Master Xin, let us see some!”

“That’s right, they do this every year and everyone’s looking forward to it!”
