“Xie Xun, be my man. I will treat you well.”

In the brightly lit banquet hall, Qin Zheng stood in front of a young man, holding a diamond ring the size of a pebble in her hand. She was dressed in a gorgeous and eye-catching red gown, her slightly curly long hair draped behind her back like ink. Her delicate and fair little face had a bright smile, like a fairy who had accidentally entered the mortal world. Her every frown and smile contained a charming charm.

The lively banquet hall became completely silent because of her words.

Qin Zheng, the eldest daughter of the Qin family, one of the four great families. She was one of the top beauties in A City. Today was her twenty-second birthday. The people attending the birthday party were all people of either wealth or nobility.

But who would have thought that Qin Zheng would publicly propose to a man in front of so many important people at her birthday party?

“What’s going on? Didn’t they say that Qin Zheng just broke off her engagement with Lu Yixuan? Why did she turn around and propose to another man?”

“I heard that Qin Zheng fell in love with a bartender in a bar a while ago. Could it be him?”

The crowd whispered among themselves, and everyone’s eyes fell on the young man in front of Qin Zheng.

The man had a perfect face that could not be picked out. His eyebrows were deep, and his nose bridge was high. His exquisite facial features were like the favored child of god, beautiful and magnificent. However, the aura around the man was too cold and indifferent.

The people present had seen many handsome men and beautiful women, but when they saw the man, they could not help but exclaim, “He is indeed good-looking. No wonder he can charm Qin Zheng so much.”

“What’s the use of being good-looking? He’s just a bartender who can’t stand the spotlight.”

The disdain in everyone’s tone made Qin Zheng frown unhappily, but when she realized that Xie Xun was looking at her, she quickly raised a gentle smile.

This was the first time Xie Xun had looked her in the eye today. Even though she had practiced this many times, Qin Zheng still couldn’t help but feel nervous when she met the man’s eyes. After all, this was the first time in her life that she had proposed to someone.

Just as Qin Zheng was about to continue speaking… A woman’s aggrieved and pitiful voice suddenly came from the door. “Brother Xuan, it’s him… Last time, he was the one who plotted against me and almost molested me… Sob sob sob…”

Qin Zheng subconsciously turned her head. A young man and woman walked over together. When they saw Qin Zheng, their faces instantly turned cold.

Lu Yixuan, her ex-fiancé; Su Mei’er, her ex-fiancé’s cheating partner.

Three months ago, Qin Zheng found out that Lu Yixuan was involved with his first love, Su Mei’er. After they got together, she decisively broke off the engagement.

Hearing Su Mei’er’s miserable cry, Lu Yixuan’s cold gaze fell on Xie Xun. Seeing this, Qin Zheng subconsciously stood in front of Xie Xun and asked coldly, “What are you guys doing here?”

Lu Yixuan ignored Qin Zheng and looked past her to Xie Xun. The man’s figure was slender and his eyes were like illusions. Under the reflection of the crystal lamp, his face was so handsome that it did not look like he was from the mortal world. It made everyone look like a backdrop. He just stood there quietly. His temperament was cold and noble, and he did not look like an ordinary bartender at all. Unfortunately, he was just a lowly bartender.

Lu Yixuan smiled contemptuously. “I thought you were very capable, but it turns out you’re just a coward who only knows how to hide behind women.”

Qin Zheng frowned and was about to speak when the man behind her gently pushed her away. His melodious voice that sounded like a cello slowly rang out. “Mr. Lu and Miss Su, do you have some misunderstanding about me?”

“Misunderstanding? It seems that you don’t want to admit your mistake?” Lu Yixuan sneered and threw out a stack of photos. The photos fell to the ground. When everyone looked closely, they found that these photos were all of Xie Xun and Su Mei’er in the same frame. There was even one where Xie Xun pressed Su Mei’er against the wall and kissed her forcefully…

This Xie Xun was too bold. How dare he molest Su Mei’er?

Xie Xun casually glanced at the photos on the ground and said indifferently, “The person on it isn’t me.”

Lu Yixuan was so angry that he laughed. “It’s not you? Could it be that the photos are fake?”

When Xie Xun heard this, he raised his exquisite eyebrows and looked at Su Mei’er. “Miss Su, you are the person involved. You should know very well whether the photos are real or fake.”

Su Mei’er’s eyes widened and revealed a look of disbelief. Then, she cried pitifully. “Xie Xun, what do you mean by this? The photos are evidence. Do you still want to deny it?”

Hearing this… Qin Zheng finally couldn’t hold it in anymore. “Miss Su, how did you get these photos? If they were taken by accident, I’m very curious. These people saw a weak woman being bullied by a man, but not only did they not stop him, they even wanted to take photos as a memento. In the end, they even wanted to develop the photos and give them to you?”
