Chapter 6: Jiang Ruan, Do You Admit It?

He turned around, gestured with his hand, and shouted, "Hey! Girl over there, look this way!"

Chu Mochen was always flamboyant, and with that shout, nearly everyone's attention was drawn, and they all followed Chu Mochen's gaze toward... Jiang Ruan.

Jiang Ruan's eyes revealed a hint of shock. Under everyone's scrutiny, she tried to remain calm and composed. She looked toward Chu Mochen's position, where the man had a mocking smile on his lips, dressed in custom-made haute couture, even the watch on his wrist alone was worth over a million.

The manager had mentioned more than once during meetings that when encountering such clients, they must be served well no matter what, and absolutely no unpleasantness could occur!

Jiang Ruan straightened her back, carrying the tray of drinks as she walked over, took a deep breath, and revealed a politely charming smile, "Good evening, sir. Today, Stunning Bar is promoting this bottle of Glenfiddich, which has a silk-like smoothness and a rich fruity aroma, very suitable for you and your friends to enjoy. If you're interested, you can try a glass first..."

Before Jiang Ruan could finish her formal presentation, Chu Mochen gestured with his hand, "Little girl… Oops, sorry, my tongue slipped. I'm sick of these conventional introductions to alcohol. Do you have any other ways?"

"Other... ways?" Jiang Ruan furrowed her brows slightly.

"How about this, I won't make it difficult for you. In fact, it's my brother who is interested in... your drink, but he is very distant and it's usually hard to see him smile. If you can successfully sell the drink to him today, we will cover your bill for the night, how about that?"

"Cover... the whole bill?"

Jiang Ruan's pupils dilated as she rapidly calculated the earnings from covering the entire bill, which would be nearly 10,000 yuan!

She nodded her head as if ready for the challenge.

However, when the man beside Chu Mochen lifted his head from the shadows, and their eyes met...

Jiang Ruan's expression froze, she felt as if her breath had been strangled, nearly suffocating.

How could it be him...

How could it be him!

And Zhan Xiaohan's gaze as he looked at her was not gentle, but instead full of coldness and mockery!

It was as if all the derogatory things Jiang Yuning had said about her were being confirmed at this moment. Jiang Ruan immediately lowered her head, her eyes rippling and misty, with her fingertips turning pale as she gripped them tightly.

"Lift up your head."

Zhan Xiaohan's cold voice sounded like frost, carrying an undeniable command.

Even Chu Mochen was a bit startled. He looked at Zhan Xiaohan. Why did his brother look at this girl as if they were old lovers meeting again, with such an envious expression?

And with a tone as cold as ice, it gave him goosebumps. He covertly poked Zhan Xiaohan's arm, "Xiaohan, there's no need for this, she's just promoting and selling drinks. Let's not be so serious, don't bring out your work atmosphere."

Zhan Xiaohan coldly glanced at Chu Mochen, "I know her."

You know her?!

"You know other girls? How come I didn't know about this!"

Jiang Ruan steadied her heart and raised her head to look at Zhan Xiaohan, her red lips parted slightly, "Mister, let me reintroduce this bottle of alcohol..."

"Xiaohan, you are here too?"

Before the sound faded, Jiang Yuning's tender voice came from behind.

She moved closer with graceful steps, naturally sitting down beside Zhan Xiaohan, gently winding her arm around his, and under the dim lighting, the ring on Jiang Yuning's finger stood out conspicuously.

As Chu Mochen wondered where this woman had popped out from, he was shocked by the ring on her finger and sat up straight, "Holy shit, am I seeing things? Xiaohan, isn't that the heirloom ring of the Zhan Family she's wearing on her hand? Is she the girl your grandmother introduced to you?"

Jiang Yuning, shy and timid, spoke softly, "Hello, I'm Xiaohan's fiancée, Jiang Yuning. Just call me Yuning. This ring... Xiaohan placed it on my finger that night, and I will cherish it for a lifetime."

The information was too shocking for Chu Mochen as he blinked his eyes and leaned closer to Zhan Xiaohan, exhaling softly, "Going for it, eh?"

Yet...

Why did he feel that Jiang Yuning before him bore a resemblance to this little girl promoting and selling drinks?

"You two..."

Jiang Yuning immediately wore an expression of helplessness and scolded, "Sister, aren't you heeding what Father said? Do I still have to come to the bar every night to persuade you to go home?"

As three pairs of eyes settled on her, Jiang Ruan felt a numbing sensation on her back, standing frozen, without any space to flee.

Zhan Xiaohan remained silent, but Chu Mochen continued the discussion, "What do you mean by that? I think this little girl is quite well-behaved. She doesn't seem like a bad kid that doesn't listen. And look around the bar, who else dresses as conservatively as her to sell drinks? Since you're Xiaohan's fiancée, the Jiang Family must also be wealthy, isn't it odd to favor the sister and treat the other harshly?"

His words nearly tore through Jiang Yuning's façade, her face turning pale.

She shifted her gaze, holding Zhan Xiaohan's arm with a look of confusion, "No, it's not like that. She's a foster daughter of our Jiang Family, and even Xiaohan saw today at home, how she almost stole the token of affection Xiaohan gave to me. My father has cleaned up so many of her messes, yet she's still ungrateful and continues these antics."

Jiang Yuning looked at Jiang Ruan, her eyes undisguised with threat: "Jiang Ruan, do you admit it?"
