Chapter 1434: Knocking into Him
“The quality of the wine seller now has improved!”
The young man raised his hand and brushed it over Qing Yan’s face. It was so smooth and tender, just like an egg with its sh.e.l.l removed.
This woman really had exquisite facial features and looked cold and elegant, which were incomparable to the top hostess in the bar. She should be a down-and-out young lady from some well-known family!
The young man narrowed his eyes and searched through his mind, but he could not remember where he had met such a rich young lady.
Being touched by the young man suddenly, Qing Yan’s pupils constricted in fear and the wine bottle in her hand fell to the ground.
Cras.h.!.+ The wine bottle broke and made a crisp sound.
“Beauty, do you know the price of this bottle of wine? It’s a Romanee Conti and you broke it. What is a waitress like you going to use to pay for it?” The young man pinched Qing Yan’s chin and his Adam’s apple bobbed as he looked at her exquisite and feminine face with a dark gaze. “Or you can sleep with me and you don’t need to work in the bar anymore. How about I give you money?”
Qing Yan shook off the young man’s hand and looked at him haughtily. “I’m not a hostess.”
“A wine seller is also a hostess, what’s the difference? Isn’t it all for money?”
“Sir, please respect yourself. A wine seller makes money by selling wine, not her body.”
Seeing that Qing Yan’s temper was starting to flare, the young man’s desire to conquer her was aroused. “You’re quite fierce. Looking at your chest, you’re not a virgin at your age, right? Why are you still pretending?
“Name your price!”
Qing Yan frowned. She had been working part-time in the bar for a month and it was not like she had not met with such a difficult customer before. She reminded herself not to be too arrogant. Reality had forced her into this situation and she had to bow her head down.
Lowering her lashes, Qing Yan swallowed her pride, saying in a slightly humble manner, “I’m sorry, I’m really not a hostess. I won’t sell myself no matter how much money you give me.”
Seeing Qing Yan refusing him again and again, the young man was furious. Pinching Qing Yan’s cheek, his expression darkened. “What are you? I, Young Master Chuo, can get any woman I want. If you don’t want to sell yourself, pay for this bottle of wine. $300,000, bring it over right now.”
“I don’t have that much money.” Qing Yan bit her lip.
“Sell yourself if you don’t have the money.”
The young man clasped Qing Yan’s wrist, pulled her up from the ground and threw her onto the sofa in the corner.
After Qing Yan was thrown onto the sofa, she did not look like she had given in. Her cold eyes stared at the young man. “Do you want to be indecent in front of so many people? Even if you succeed in the end, I will definitely call the police!”
“Call the police?” The young man laughed. “I’m so scared!”
The young man wanted to kiss Qing Yan and she dodged it. The young man was impatient and raised his hand, swinging it at her face. “You’re just someone who sells wine, why are you acting?”
Qing Yan was slightly dazed by the young man’s slap.
Qiao Yanze and Tang Xi were talking when they heard the cries of a woman. Tang Xi glanced towards the corner. “I met this Young Master Chuo at the entrance of the bar and he wanted to come to our room. This man really doesn’t know how to behave, getting excited in front of so many people.”
“Go and have a word with him and make him leave.” Qiao Yanze knew that a young man who was audacious when playing could do anything crazy. But now, he just wanted to talk and drink with Tang Xi and did not want to see anything that would dirty his eyes.
“Go away, I will pay you $300,000. I’m not selling myself!” The woman who was being pressed against Young Master Chuo shouted angrily.
When he heard the woman’s voice, Qiao Yanze frowned. Tang Xi was about to ask Young Master Chuo to go out of the room when somebody grabbed his arm. Tang Xi turned back and saw that Qiao Yanze had stood up from the sofa.
“I know that woman.”
Qiao Yanze put one hand into his pants pocket and strode towards the sofa in the corner.
By now, Qing Yan’s uniform was torn by Young Master Chuo and she struggled violently. Young Master Chuo was a womanizer and the more Qing Yan resisted, the more he wanted to conquer her.
Just when his hand was moving under her skirt, it was grabbed by someone and he gave an angry shout. “Who the f*ck…”
When he looked back, he met with the gloomy eyes of Qiao Yanze. The flame in Young Master Chuo suddenly disappeared.
“Young Master Qiao, are you also interested in this woman?”
“She’s my friend. Let her go.”
Young Master Chuo glanced at Qing Yan. This woman had a strength in her and it made his heart itch. He wanted to get her, but Qiao Yanze had spoken so he had to take a step back. “Fine, I’ll give Young Master Qiao face today.”
Qiao Yanze nodded his head and looked back at Tang Xi. “Get that bottle of wine that I have kept in the bar and give it to Young Master Chuo.”
After Tang Xi left with Young Master Chuo, Qiao Yanze looked at the s.h.i.+vering woman in the corner of the sofa. Her clothes were torn and she had her arms around her body. She was pale, her eyelashes were fluttering and she was terrified.
Qiao Yanze took Tang Xi’s coat that was on the sofa and draped it over the woman. He patted her shoulders and the woman immediately shouted, “Go away, I’m not selling myself! Don’t touch me!”
Qiao Yanze pursed his lips. “Qing Yan, it’s me.”
Qing Yan slowly opened her eyes and immediately lowered her eyes when she saw the handsome man standing by the sofa. Wrapping the coat tightly around her, she rose from the sofa and left.
Qiao Yanze frowned.
He did not know why she was like a mouse that had seen a cat every time she saw him!
Was he that scary?
Tang Xi returned to the room and saw that the woman selling wine was gone. He asked curiously, “Who’s that woman? Is she an ex from before?”
Qiao Yanze kicked Tang Xi’s leg. “She’s not a promiscuous woman.”
“Oh, how strange. It’s rare for me to see you defending a woman.” Tang Xi put his face close to Qiao Yanze and became more interested in the woman. “Who is she? Do I know her?”
“Qing Yan.”
“F*ck, it’s her!” Tang Xi exclaimed. When she was a child, Qing Yan was beautiful and was a little princess. In fact, he was even secretly in love with her. Later, when he knew that the Qiao and Qing family had arranged a marriage between them, he s.h.i.+fted his target.
Tang Xi shook his head in disbelief. “The G.o.ddess has become a wine seller. You never know what’s going to happen next!”
Qiao Yanze looked at Tang Xi. “Why, do you have something to say?”
Tang Xi shrugged. “Looking at her like that, even if she is down in the dumps, she is still very proud.”
Qiao Yanze smiled, but before he could say anything, his phone vibrated. A trace of gentleness flashed past his eyes when he saw the caller ID. Tang Xi saw that it was Cen Xi and he clicked his tongue. “Miss Cen is checking up on you.”
It was a little noisy in the room, so Qiao Yanze picked up his phone and went outside.
Opening the door, Qiao Yanze was about to go out, but there was a person standing at the door. One of them was going out and the other was going in, and they inevitably b.u.mped into each other.
Seeing the woman in his arms, Qiao Yanze stepped back a few steps. “Are you okay?”
Qing Yan rubbed her forehead. “I’m sorry. I didn’t know that you’re going to come out. I came to give you this.” She handed an exquisite wooden box to Qiao Yanze.
