Bai Qingzhi had seen it; the playboy had changed more women than he had changed clothes.
However, what the woman said wasn't wrong; her skills were indeed quite good.
At the same time, the man also brought in several friends, all of whom were the same kind of scoundrels.
Bai Qingyu hadn't reacted yet. By the time she did, one of the men was already chatting with Leng Yan, and Leng Yan even tacitly allowed the man to put his arm around her.
The meaning is self-evident.
Thinking about how hard she had worked to build up her persona just to give Leng Yan a good impression, while others could simply spend money to hold hands with her, Bai Qingyu felt a surge of anger.
He suddenly stood up, causing the chair to creak.
Xiao Yuan had anticipated this scene as soon as he entered, so he had the manager clear the room early on.
The sound of the chair attracted the attention of the people at Leng Yan's table, and the men who had just come in frowned in displeasure.
Leng Yan was surprised to see Bai Qingyu there, but she was also displeased.
He stood up and asked accusingly:
"You were following me?"
Bai Qingyu took a few steps, her eyes fixed on Leng Yan, who was clearly injured.
"What did you mean just now?" Bai Qingyu's face darkened.
Leng Nuan seemed stunned for a moment, but quickly realized that Bai Qingyu had probably seen everything that had just happened.
He decided not to hide it anymore, and with a sneer on his face, he spoke sarcastically.
"I never agreed to be with you, do you think you have the right to tell me what to do?"
The men and women around them all had expressions of schadenfreude, especially the women who were on good terms with Leng Nuan, who had an expression that said it was only natural.
"So, you've been playing me for all this time?" Bai Qingyu gritted her teeth and continued to press on.
He only felt a dull ache in his heart.
Leng Yan didn't answer, but the expression on her face said it all.
A woman standing nearby stood up, reached out and touched Bai Qingyu, then spoke with a teasing tone:
"Little brother, why don't you come with your sister? I won't take your money, how about it?"
"Keep that little bit of money for yourself. You should realize now that you can't afford to support my lifestyle." Leng Yan's smile returned.
Because Bai Qingyu rarely attends his own family's events, none of the playboys around him recognized him.
Upon hearing Leng Yan's words and glancing at Bai Qingyu's bar uniform, the man who had just been embracing Leng Yan stood up.
"Brother, listen to me, make some money. With enough money, you can have any kind of woman. I dare say even to their faces, they're just people you can chat with. Once they get tired of you, you'll just give them some money and be done with it."
After saying that, he patted Bai Qingyu on the shoulder in a friendly manner.
Bai Qingyu looked at Leng Yan.
"Aren't you angry when she said that?"
"Why should I be angry? She was just telling the truth; it was a mutually beneficial arrangement," Leng Yan replied naturally.
Bai Qingyu suddenly laughed. For so long, he was afraid that Leng Yan would look down on him because of his wealthy status, so he pretended to be rich and put up with her. But in the end, she had been lying to him all along.
Seemingly feeling that Bai Qingyu's laughter was mocking her, Leng Yan frowned impatiently.
"Let's go quickly. It would take you a year to save up just one bag without eating or drinking. I'm really afraid you'll starve to death if you stay with me any longer."
His tone was full of disdain.
Bai Qingzhi finally couldn't listen anymore and came out.
"Miss Leng's personality really hasn't changed at all; she's been just as annoying since she was a child," Bai Qingzhi said coldly.
Leng Yan frowned even more; she recognized the woman in front of her.
She ran into Bai Qingyu at the bar that day when she went to get money from her.
Soon, Leng Yan remembered the noble man who had been next to the woman. She scanned her surroundings and sure enough, she saw him not far away.
However, Leng Yan could not possibly accept being ridiculed in front of so many people.
"Miss, do you know me? Or is it that you can't stand this man's obsequious behavior towards me?"
There was even a smile on her lips.
"Third Brother, you really have bad taste, falling for such a jerk." Bai Qingzhi ignored her completely, turning her head to look at Bai Qingyu with a reproach.
Leng Yan was immediately enraged. Just as she was about to question him, she felt the man who had been holding her suddenly let go.
"Miss Bai!" The man's face was full of flattery.
"You are..." Bai Qingzhi tilted her head; she really didn't recognize her.
"I am Zhou Guohai's son from Mengshen Technology. I saw you at the Liu family's banquet last time," the man hurriedly explained his identity.
At this point, Leng Yan realized something was wrong.
This woman's surname is Bai, and Bai Qingyu's surname is also Bai. Looking at how the man treats Bai Qingzhi, could there be some kind of relationship between them?
"Hello, this is my third brother," Bai Qingzhi introduced with a smile.
She didn't think men were important figures; she just wanted to take this opportunity to slap Leng Yan in the face.
"Don't you like money? Why leave such a huge gold mine to go looking for a small money pit?" She was particularly curious to see Leng Yan's expression later.
Xiao Yuan also came out at this time.
It's normal that people don't know Bai Qingyu since he wasn't involved in the Bai family's businesses. But Xiao Yuan is different; everyone who has attended high-end business gatherings knows him.
Sure enough, as soon as he appeared, all the men surrounded him.
"You guys are really bold, daring to steal the woman of the third young master of the Bai family." Xiao Yuan's face was expressionless.
Upon hearing this, the men felt a tightness in their anuses. Who would have thought that their search for gold-digging women to relieve their boredom would lead them to Young Master Bai?
"Don't say that, she has nothing to do with me." Bai Qingyu had already suppressed her anger and heartache, and her face was calm.
Hearing Xiao Yuan's words, he immediately retorted.
Even if Leng Yan were stupid, she would probably realize what had happened by now. The Bai family? In City A, the Bai family is probably the only one that other families fear so much.
She has spent years mingling with the children of wealthy families and knows the elite families in City A inside and out.
Looking at Bai Qingyu in surprise, Leng Yan's eyes widened to their maximum, and her voice became much sharper.
"You're lying to me?"
Seeing her act of falsely accusing someone, Bai Qingyu's feelings of affection completely vanished.
"What did I lie to you about?" Bai Qingyu, now back to normal, sat in her chair, leaning back and squinting as she asked.
"Why don't you say you're from the Bai family? And if you're so rich, why do you work at a bar?"
Then she thought of how many rich men would pretend to be down on their luck when they met a woman they liked, just to test her. Could it be that Bai Qingyu was the same?
Seemingly sensing her thoughts, Bai Qingyu gave a cold laugh.
"I'm not that bored. If you hadn't always said that we should be self-reliant, I wouldn't have gone. But I still want to thank you for your words, which made me see what kind of woman you are."
At this moment, Leng Yan wished she could strangle herself. She knew that Bai Qingyu had deep feelings for her, and if she hadn't exposed herself too early, he might have eventually married her.
