Before his words could tail off, he extended his plump arm and placed it around Lu Weixi’s shoulder. Lu Weixi instinctively shuddered but managed to keep her smile frozen on her face as she swiveled around to pick up her drink, intending to propose a toast as a way to diffuse his inappropriate touch. However, President Liu’s hand suddenly slid down to her thigh.

Lu Weixi jolted in surprise, causing the glass in her hand to tilt and spill wine onto President Liu’s hands and onto her thigh. Quickly seizing the opportunity, she slipped backward and handed him a napkin, apologizing, “I’m sorry.”

President Liu lunged forward, gripping Lu Weixi’s hand, and hurriedly confessed his feelings, “Miss Lu, I greatly admire your talents, and I like …”

Before he could finish, the atmosphere was suddenly interrupted by a flash of light.

A click sounded behind her, and without looking back, she knew someone had just snapped a photo. Qin Zhiyou stood his ground, one hand holding a phone and the other casually stuffed into his pocket. He wore a wicked smile on his face, even finding the audacity to declare, “Say cheese.”

Then, he took another photo.

Furious that he had just been stealthily captured on camera, President Liu released his grip on Lu Weixi and instantly rose to his feet, on the cusp of venting his anger. But then noticed He Weiyou standing behind Qin Zhiyou, which made him hesitate. As a subcontractor under Yanchang Company, he didn’t recognize Qin Zhiyou – a top-tier rich young man like him. However, he had frequent dealings with He Weiyou, a major client of the company, so he reluctantly greeted, “President He.”

However, He Weiyou and Yu Sixing were familiar with Lu Weixi, so they first greeted her, “Wei Hui.” They then turned their gazes towards Qin Zhiyou who was still holding his phone and wearing a smile on his face, seemingly unconcerned about photographing his ex-wife in such a compromising situation.

Yu Sixing, who was known for speaking his mind, couldn’t help but ask, “Why did you take those pictures?” Updated from nov𝒆lbIn.(c)om

Qin Zhiyou gently lowered his head, hiding his eyes behind his eyelashes. From his collected tone, it seemed he was laughing, “Nothing much, just for posting on Weibo and my moments.”

Upon hearing this, President Liu and Lu Weixi’s expressions altered.

President Liu remained silent. It was one thing for men to fool around, but it was another to post the evidence on Weibo and friends’ circle, where all the family members and colleagues could see. At that very moment, he disregarded his concerns about He Weiyou and stormed forward, his face stern. “Delete the pictures!” he demanded.

For Lu Weixi, Qin Zhiyou’s words were like a resounding slap to her face. Life had taught her that she couldn’t be as willful as before. She had to socialize occasionally and couldn’t always refuse.

The truth is, even if Qin Zhiyou hadn’t made an appearance, she planned to find an excuse to escape. It’s only two hundred thousand. She wasn’t going to be a pushover easily.

The words of Qin Zhiyou were like a sharp knife, ruthlessly peeling off the mask she had struggled so hard to maintain. She felt as if all her efforts to progress from an assistant to a junior, and then a mid-level designer, had now become a joke about her selling herself!

Over there, President Liu recklessly went over to snatch the pictures. Qin Zhiyou gave a low chuckle, threw a punch directly at his greasy face, and knocked him to the ground with one punch. Then he casually grabbed a wine glass from Yu Sixing’s hands and smashed it hard against Liu’s body.

The glass shattered on President Liu’s chest, the sound echoing loudly. The impact of the smashed glass shards was like a knife, cutting him all over, leaving him bloodied and in a mess. When he dared to look up, he saw Lu Weixi standing tall and preparing to storm off. But not without Qin Zhiyou catching her arm, his face a thundercloud, walking over furiously to wrench her away from the scene..
