He lost control after drinking and ended up marrying a powerful female CEO.

"Leng Siqi!"

Before Lu Qingxue could react, Lu Zenian strode out, his face icy: "You know you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want! In front of so many people, you slander my daughter, Lu Zenian's daughter. Does the Leng family want to be at odds with the Lu Group forever?"

Under Lu Zenian's icy gaze, Leng Siqi remained unfazed and snorted, "I didn't slander you. If you don't believe me, ask your daughter where she went and what she did last night."

Lu Zenian turned his head to look at Lu Qingxue.

“I went to Seven Bar for drinks last night, and then went to my best friend’s house. If you don’t believe me, I can call my best friend and have her testify,” Lu Qingxue said calmly.

Lu Zenian's heart skipped a beat.

Others may not be able to tell, but no one knows a daughter better than her father.

He could tell from Lu Qingxue's unconscious gesture of fiddling with her skirt that she was lying.

But now was clearly not the time to press for answers. He turned to Leng Siqi and said, "Did you hear that? My daughter was at her friend's house last night."

"There's no point in making excuses."

Leng Siqi pressed on, saying, "I have evidence in my hands, Lu Qingxue. I advise you to confess yourself, otherwise, once I produce the evidence, your Lu family will lose all face."

Lu Qingxue said angrily, "Evidence? Then show it to me."

She was insecure inside, but acted very strongly.

Moreover, it can be stated with 100% certainty that Leng Siqi has absolutely no evidence.

Otherwise, Leng Siqi wouldn't have given her the chance to "confess" at all; she would have just presented the evidence and made her lose face completely.

As expected, Leng Siqi had no evidence whatsoever. Gritting her teeth, she shouted, "Lu Qingxue, if you dare to do it, why don't you dare to admit it?"

"I didn't do anything, why should I admit anything? Don't you have evidence? Where is it?"

"I……"

"All right!"

Chen Huaidong said coldly, "This farce should end now, Leng Siqi, stop making trouble."

Leng Siqi and Chen Huaidong can be considered childhood sweethearts, having known each other since they were young.

“Brother Huaidong, I really didn’t lie to you! She last night…”

"I've said enough!"

Chen Huaidong's face darkened: "If you'd like to stay for a drink, you're welcome, but if you're going to cause trouble, please leave."

Leng Siqi's face paled upon hearing this, and her eyes reddened: "Brother Huaidong, are you kicking me out?"

"I just don't want you to keep making a scene, otherwise you'll be the one who embarrasses yourself."

Chen Huaidong has no intention of breaking ties with the Leng family for the time being, otherwise he would have had Leng Siqi thrown out directly.

Regardless of whether it's true or not, publicly calling his fiancée a "loose woman" at the engagement ceremony is tantamount to slapping him in the face.

"Fine! I'm leaving! You'll regret this!"

With tears in her eyes, Leng Siqi gritted her teeth and said to Lu Qingxue, "Don't be so smug! I will definitely get the evidence, and then we'll see how you try to deny it!"

After saying that, Leng Siqi left in resentment.

Lu Zenian spoke up at the opportune moment: "Everyone, you all know that our Lu family and the Leng family are competitors. Leng Siqi deliberately spread rumors and slandered my daughter. I reserve the right to pursue the matter for the time being."

"Hehe, it's just kids fooling around, no need to take it seriously."

"Don't worry, Chairman Lu, we won't make wild guesses or say anything."

Everyone responded one after another.

Chen Huaidong spoke again: "Qingxue, come up on stage."

Lu Qingxue forced a smile, lifted her skirt, and went up the steps.

But after taking only two steps, a familiar voice came: "Wow, there are so many people."

Lu Qingxue's feet froze, her pupils contracting and then dilating in an instant.

Turning my head sharply, I saw a young man dressed in casual clothes striding towards me.

A middle-aged man with mottled black and white hair followed behind him.

When Lu Qingxue saw the young man's face clearly, she felt as if the sky had fallen and the earth had collapsed.

It's the Qinhuai River!

He actually came here!

A sense of panic welled up uncontrollably in Lu Qingxue's heart.

What is Qin Huai doing here?

What would happen if he revealed what happened last night?

Lu Qingxue dared not think about it.

Everyone turned to look at Qin Huai, their brows furrowing slightly.

Very young, very unfamiliar.

All the prominent figures in the city are here; anyone with a name or status will be recognized.

But they had absolutely no recollection of this one.

A faint hint of malice flickered in Chen Huaidong's cold eyes.

A perfectly good engagement ceremony was repeatedly interrupted.

This feeling of being out of his control made him very unhappy.

Those with quick wits who wanted to curry favor with the Chen family immediately stepped forward and shouted, "Who are you? Don't you know tonight is the engagement banquet of Young Master Chen and the Lu family's daughter? Who let you in?"

"who am I?"

Qin Huai looked at Lu Qingxue from afar, a wicked smile playing on his lips.

Lu Qingxue's vision went black, and her first thought was to kill Qin Huai on the spot to silence him.

His second thought was to kill himself by running into a wall and end it all.

But Qin Huai didn't speak to Lu Qingxue; instead, he snapped his fingers.

Immediately, the middle-aged man in a tuxedo, looking like a butler, behind Qin Huai shouted at the top of his lungs, "The young master of the Qin family in the capital has arrived in person!"

"Capital?"

"Young Master Qin?"

Everyone was stunned and looked at each other.

Chen Huaidong frowned, and soon, as if he had thought of something, his eyes twitched slightly, and he said, "The ninth most powerful family in the capital, the Qin family?"

Upon hearing Chen Huaidong's words, the group of celebrities and dignitaries realized what was happening and stared in astonishment.

Don't be fooled by the fact that these people present are supposedly important figures in the upper echelons of Chongcheng society.

Compared to the capital, it's like a small fish or shrimp in a muddy pond.

Only those that can be called a powerful family in an international metropolis like Beijing are true behemoths.

Qin Huai was very satisfied with everyone's reaction and nodded with a smile: "How many Qin families are there in the capital? And I am Qin Huai, the eldest son of the Qin family."

Someone timidly asked, "How...how can you prove that you are the eldest young master of the Qin family in the capital?"

"Why should I need to explain my actions to others?"

Qin Huai put his hands behind his back and spoke arrogantly.

Lu Qingxue looked at Qin Huai's pretentious act and was so embarrassed that she clenched her toes.

If others don't know, how could she not know?

What's with this lowly bartender earning a few thousand dollars a month pretending to be a rich young master?

Returning the Qin family to the capital...

At least change out of those cheap clothes you're wearing!

And the tuxedo worn by the person behind you, isn't that your bartender uniform?

Chen Huaidong walked down the steps from the other end of the platform, staring intently at Qin Huai, and said, "So it is the eldest son of the Qin family who has graced us with his presence. My name is Chen Huaidong. I had the honor of meeting the third master of the Qin family a few months ago at the summit in Beijing. What impressed me most was the jade Buddhist beads on the third master's hand, which can be described as a rare treasure."

Qin Huai chuckled and shook his head, saying, "First of all, my family is small, just me and my unreliable old man. There is no one named Third Master Qin. Secondly, my Qin family never participates in summits or anything like that. Finally, the jade Buddha beads are in the hands of the Xiang family and will not be shown to others easily."

Upon hearing this, Chen Huaidong immediately smiled and said, "Young Master Qin, I apologize for my rudeness. Please come in and take a seat."
