Su Mei’er’s expression froze for a moment. However, she quickly thought of an excuse. “I was harassed by Xie Xun at the bar. There were many people taking photos there, so it was normal for them to accidentally take photos of this scene. After they found out that I wanted to collect evidence, these people contacted me out of justice and were willing to help me punish the bad guys. Is there a problem?”

Qin Zheng nodded. “Sure. According to what you said, the guests accidentally took photos of you and Xie Xun when they were taking photos, but the backgrounds of these photos are all different. They should have been taken at different times and places. How could it be so coincidental that there were people taking photos at all the places where Miss Su appeared? Also, I’m very curious about the people who took these photos. Their photography skills are quite professional. Every photo is very clear.”

“It’s clear because… because I’ve selected the photos they sent and only left these relatively clear ones. If the photos are blurry, won’t that give Xie Xun an excuse?”

Hearing Su Mei’er’s words, Xie Xun’s expression did not change. He did not defend himself either. Instead, he asked softly, “Miss Su, are you sure you don’t want to explain this misunderstanding?”

Su Mei’er felt a chill in her heart when she met the man’s cold eyes. She felt a faint sense of unease. However, she quickly calmed down. “I did think about letting it go. After all, you’re the person that Miss Qin is protecting now. However, when I think about how more innocent girls will be fooled by your face after I remain silent, I can’t choose to stay out of this. So… I’m willing to take the risk of offending Miss Qin today to expose your true colors!”

Su Mei’er’s righteous words made everyone present turn their heads.

Xie Xun was only a bartender, but his looks were astonishing. If he wanted to use his face to seduce women, no woman could resist the temptation. Wasn’t Qin Zheng an example? The dignified eldest daughter of the Qin family actually proposed to a gigolo in front of everyone. She was really depraved.

“Previously, everyone said that Lu Yixuan cheated on Qin Zheng first, but it hasn’t been long since Qin Zheng made a high-profile confession to Xie Xun. Maybe the two of them have already hooked up.”

“Heh, a grown man looks like this. He doesn’t have any manliness at all. He can only become a woman’s plaything.”

“A gigolo is a gigolo. Qin Zheng is really stupid. She was actually charmed by such a gigolo.”

The more they talked, the more outrageous they became. Qin Zheng sneered coldly. “Shut up!”

Then she looked at Xie Xun, a little worried that he would be hurt by the gossip. However, Xie Xun did not show any embarrassed expression. His expression was calm and otherworldly, cold and arrogant. He was not affected in the slightest.

Amidst the discussions of these people, Xie Xun slowly took out his phone. “Unfortunately, a few days ago, when I was recording the process of mixing drinks, Miss Su suddenly came over and said something strange to me.”

Hearing this, Su Mei’er’s expression changed drastically.

Qin Zheng’s brows twitched. She took Xie Xun’s phone and clicked on the video to play. At the beginning of the video, as Xie Xun had said, it was him mixing drinks. The man’s fingers were long and clean, and his knuckles were distinct. His movements were methodical and pleasing to the eye.

A few minutes later, there was a knock on the door. Xie Xun went over to open the door, and the woman’s voice followed. “Xie Xun, are you busy?”

Immediately after, Su Mei’er’s face appeared on the screen. Although it was a little far away, the phone’s pixels were pretty good, and one could clearly see that it was Su Mei’er.

Xie Xun’s voice was cold and distant. “Miss Su, what’s the matter?”

Su Mei’er took out a check. “This is a million dollars. As long as you’re willing to follow me, this check is yours.”

“Miss Su, what do you mean?”

“Xie Xun, I like you. You’re very much like my first lover, so I hope that you can be with me. I know that Qin Zheng’s family background is better than mine, and she’s richer than I am, but that woman is a workaholic. She’s frigid. When she’s with Lu Yixuan, she won’t even let her hands touch him. She’s not interested at all. She’s probably a dead fish in bed. You…”

Xie Xun interrupted her. “I’m sorry, but I’m not interested in what you’re saying.”

Su Mei’er continued to say, “Not interested? Do you think that I don’t have enough money or… Do you care about what happens between me and Lu Yixuan? Don’t worry, I don’t have any feelings for Lu Yixuan. I’m only engaged to him to get his property. After I take down the Lu Corporation, I’ll divorce him and focus on being with you. You only need to suffer for a period of time. When that time comes, the Lu Corporation will be ours. Xie Xun, I really like you. I’ve liked you from the first moment I saw you…”
