Afraid that she had misread it, Bai Qingzhi blinked hard.
Xiao Yuan followed her gaze and immediately frowned.
When Bai Qingyu saw the two of them, she was surprised and tried to turn around and run away, but Bai Qingzhi caught up with her in a few steps and grabbed her.
Looking at her third brother dressed as a waiter, Bai Qingzhi asked in surprise:
"You own this bar?"
Bai Qingyu shook her head subconsciously.
Just then, the bar manager walked over and saw Bai Qingzhi looking at his waiter with a serious expression, so he assumed that Bai Qingyu had made a mistake.
"What have you done now? If you can't do it right, get out!" the manager yelled at Bai Qingyu.
After finishing his tirade, he turned around and nodded in apology to Bai Qingzhi.
Bai Qingzhi watched all of this silently.
"You've been complained about too many times. If it happens again, pack your things and get out! Also, your salary this month will be halved!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Qingyu looked anxious and grabbed the manager's sleeve, saying that she would not make the same mistake again.
But the manager still didn't give him a friendly look, warned him again, and then left.
Watching his retreating figure, Bai Qingzhi felt a surge of anger stuck in her chest, an unbearable discomfort.
"What exactly happened? Why would a perfectly good young master like you come here to be bullied?" Bai Qingzhi questioned sternly.
Bai Qingyu stubbornly refused to answer, her face full of obstinacy.
Bai Qingzhi's eyes immediately reddened, and Bai Qingyu panicked when she saw it.
He reached out to hold the other person's hand but then let go out of fear, and in the end, he could only lower his head like a child who had made a mistake.
"Is it Leng Yan?" Xiao Yuan suddenly spoke up. Bai Qingyu shook his head in surprise. Sure enough, he guessed right.
"Who is Leng Yan?" Bai Qingzhi asked.
"The Leng family's young lady you played with when you were little, but the Leng family moved away and went bankrupt later," Xiao Yuan explained.
I have a faint memory of that girl, Bai Qingzhi. When we were little, my third brother always followed her around, but unfortunately, she didn't like to talk to him.
Furthermore, Bai Qingzhi did not have a good impression of her. She remembered that once she wanted a bird, so she urged her third brother to climb a tree to catch it. If the adults had not discovered it in time, her third brother might have been injured that time.
However, this Miss Leng was not originally called Leng Yanqu. It is very likely that she changed her name after going bankrupt and moving away.
Realizing she had been discovered, Bai Qingyu scratched her head and decided to confess in order to get leniency.
"It's Leng Yan who wants a bag."
"Then you should just buy it for her!" Bai Qingzhi replied instinctively.
It's just a bag.
“But when I met her, Leng Yan didn’t know I was from the Bai family, nor did she know I was rich. Wasn’t I trying to establish a persona of being thrifty and hardworking?” Bai Qingyu chuckled.
Most importantly, Leng Yan was injured and has no memory of her childhood.
So, naturally, I don't remember him anymore.
Bai Qingzhi was furious at her third brother's lack of ambition, but she still felt sorry for him and pulled him aside, telling him to find a job where he wouldn't be bullied.
“Leng Yan is very proud. If she knew I was rich, she definitely wouldn’t talk to me anymore. Besides, I want to use my own efforts to buy her that bag.” Bai Qingyu’s eyes were full of determination.
"How much does that bag cost?" Bai Qingzhi asked curiously.
"120,000."
The monthly salary here is only 10,000. Would you need a year to afford it?
"Didn't the Leng family go bankrupt?" Bai Qingzhi pressed.
Seeing Bai Qingyu nod, Bai Qingzhi subconsciously felt that something was wrong. A bag costing 120,000 yuan was not something an ordinary person could afford.
"According to my investigation, the Leng family became an ordinary family after their bankruptcy. How could she still maintain such high consumption?" Xiao Yuan asked, puzzled.
It was he who told Bai Qingyu about Leng Yan's situation.
Sensing the two's suspicion of Leng Yan, Bai Qingyu quickly shook her head to defend her.
As the three were talking, a smartly dressed woman walked in through the door.
Bai Qingyu, who had just been holding Bai Qingzhi's hand, suddenly let go and greeted her with a bright smile.
"Leng Yan, what brings you here?"
As she got closer, Bai Qingzhi finally saw the woman's face clearly.
She was of above-average appearance, but she was decked out in designer brands, had her nails done, and carried an expensive bag that Bai Qingzhi had seen in a store—it cost over 30,000 yuan.
Looking at Bai Qingyu, Leng Yan immediately gave a shy smile, letting the other person hold her hand, and then began to ask if she was tired.
At the same time, she was also secretly observing Bai Qingzhi and the other person out of the corner of her eye, and she especially looked Xiao Yuan up and down.
Bai Qingzhi naturally didn't miss this small detail, and her perception of Leng Yan immediately worsened.
Bai Qingyu, fearing her identity would be exposed, kept waving her hand behind her back at the two of them. Helpless, Bai Qingzhi pulled Xiao Yuan to a seat on the side.
They weren't far away, so you could still hear their conversation.
Leng Yan shyly tugged at Bai Qingyu's arm, speaking in a very gentle tone, and even took out a tissue to wipe away non-existent sweat from his forehead.
Bai Qingyu, on the other hand, laughed like a fool.
"Honey, maybe we shouldn't buy that bag. It really breaks my heart to see you working so hard," Leng Yan said earnestly.
Bai Qingyu couldn't stand it when she said that, so she patted her chest and immediately refused.
"How could I not keep my promise? Don't worry, give me some more time and I'll definitely be able to afford it!"
Bai Qingzhi rolled her eyes at her second brother's love-struck look.
“But 120,000 is really expensive. It’s enough for several trips.” Leng Yan lowered her head and said timidly.
"You want to go on a trip?" Bai Qingyu asked in surprise.
“But going out isn’t cheap these days, it costs 30,000 each time.” Leng Yan looked a little disappointed.
Bai Qingyu recalled that her mother often went out to play, and thought that perhaps girls all liked it.
"My salary this month, including tips, is about 30,000. Go wherever you want first." After saying that, Bai Qingyu took out her phone and transferred the money without hesitation.
Although Leng Yan said she didn't want it, she still readily accepted the money.
Bai Qingzhi felt like she was going to vomit blood.
Xiao Yuan frowned, clearly disgusted, and leaned closer to ask in a low voice:
"Is Bai Qingyu out of his mind? I don't think that woman is sincere at all."
Bai Qingzhi felt somewhat helpless, but since her third brother was willing, she couldn't interfere too much. She could only hope that Leng Yan truly wanted to be with her third brother.
A little vanity is fine; after all, the Bai family can afford to support one person.
After receiving the money, Leng Yan stayed for a while longer before leaving, while Bai Qingyu watched her retreating figure and chuckled foolishly.
"Look, she posted a message on her WeChat Moments thanking me." A few minutes later, Bai Qingyu saw Leng Yan's post on WeChat Moments and excitedly ran to show it to the two of them.
A screenshot of a bank transfer, but there wasn't even a name on it.
Bai Qingzhi suddenly felt her blood pressure was a bit high. She deeply felt that her third brother had transcended the category of a simp and was now a complete traitor.
Feeling sorry for him, the two left the bar. Before leaving, Bai Qingyu repeatedly told him not to tell his family.
