Huo Yanzhao raised an eyebrow, “Shenhan, is this the bartender you were talking about?”

“That’s right.” Yun Shenhan smiled, “Interesting, isn’t it?”

Huo Yanzhao nodded, looking at He Jingyao, “Are you alright?”

“I’m fine.” He Jingyao’s voice was slightly hoarse. After he spoke, he did something that shocked the other two immensely.

He placed the glass on the coffee table, stood up, and walked toward the bartender.

Yun Shenhan was startled, “Jingyao, what’s wrong with you?”

He was about to reach out and stop He Jingyao, but Huo Yanzhao intervened.

Huo Yanzhao’s expression was peculiar, “He’s fine.”

“Hmm?” Yun Shenhan was puzzled.

“Watch.” Huo Yanzhao showed a meaningful smile.

…

Su Zixi was well aware that the men across the room were watching her, but she paid it no mind.

A year and a half ago, she started working part-time at this Four Seasons Bar and had seen all kinds of gazes; she was long accustomed to it. Just being watched was no big deal.

This job was introduced to her by her senior, Yun Xuefei; Four Seasons Bar was her brother’s place. In the over a year she had worked here, she had never encountered any harassment. So she felt very secure.

Su Zixi focused on mixing her drinks. Her bartending skills might not surpass other bartenders significantly, but she had an attractive presence and a strong sense of rhythm. She could make a cocktail to match the atmosphere for any song.

This job was a perfect match for her skills.

But today, it seemed one gaze was a bit too intense, making her feel slightly uncomfortable.

Out of the corner of her eye, Su Zixi saw a tall man walking toward her. Yet, she didn’t even have the desire to look up. She trusted Yun Xuefei’s brother to have her back; no one would dare to cause trouble in Four Seasons Bar.

However, Su Zixi didn’t know that today, she had encountered a man even Yun Shenhan couldn’t handle.

Feeling the man’s presence getting closer, Su Zixi lifted a smile and handed over the freshly made Bloody Mary.

“Sir, a Bloody Mary, wishing you a passionate night.”

Her voice was different from usual, crisp with a slight huskiness, sensually alluring.

The glass, along with her fingers, was caught by a warm hand.

“Seeing you, I’m certain tonight will be passionate.”

That voice, low, seductive, slightly hoarse… Su Zixi abruptly looked up, meeting a pair of deep, dark eyes.

They were eyes more enchanting than the night sky.

Su Zixi felt her heartbeat stop for a second!

Her breathing became rapid, and the initially cool and elegant expression on her face couldn’t hold; it turned into awkwardness and panic, “He… Young Master He, what are you doing here?”

He Jingyao, still holding her hand, took a sip of the Bloody Mary, the drink staining his lips seductively.

Su Zixi felt like she could hardly hold onto the glass…

“That’s the question I want to ask you.” He Jingyao gave her a deep glance, took the glass from her hand, placed it on the bar, and held her hand, intertwining their fingers.

He Jingyao found this way of holding hands more gratifying and it made it harder for her to hide her every emotion.

Su Zixi’s face gradually turned red, and she whispered, “I’m working part-time here… Young Master He, can you pretend not to know me?”
