Chapter 15: Moral Blackmail, the Song Family Heiress Bullies Others

Li Peilan said, "Your sister's point is spot on. Even if she publicly insists on breaking up with you, it won't do any good for her or her family's face! If she looks for a partner again within these rich circles, those wealthy men will definitely be averse to her having a love history! After all these years together, can she still appear chaste to others? She might even have already had a few children!"

Qin Jiao Jiao also said, "Exactly, brother. If she really does bully you like that, we can't just let her. Anyway, in front of all the guests we should make it clear that your relationship is right!"

Qin Zi Mo nodded and said, "Wait a bit longer."

After waiting a while longer, Song Huan Yan still made no move.

Qin Zi Mo finally could not sit still.

He took the Ring box out of his bag, held it in his hand, and stood up.

Song Huan Yan was eating and chatting happily with Sang Wan and Tang Chenge.

Sang Wan suddenly said, "Whoa, what the hell is that jerk doing? Why did he suddenly show up?"

Song Huan Yan lifted her gaze.

Tang Chenge said, "If he dares to come over muttering, just throw him out right away!"

Song Huan Yan said, "He seems… to be heading onto the stage?"

Sang Wan said, "He wants to force a marriage? No way, I'll have someone stop him and throw him out! We can't let him go on stage and lose his mind, ruining your reputation!"

Sang Wan immediately stood up.

Song Huan Yan, however, grabbed her, unconcerned, and said, "Never mind. He'll cause a scene sooner or later. We'll wait until he's done."

Tang Chenge said, "But this whole commotion, even though it's more embarrassing for him, also hurts your face. Today is still your birthday!"

Song Huan Yan said calmly, "I act righteously and sit upright; I don't care about such reputation. Moreover, once he knows my status he'll inevitably cause a scene—it's unavoidable. He thinks that by using reputation to pressure me I'll compromise; the ugly think they're still beautiful."

Sang Wan couldn't help but giggle, "When it comes to being perceptive, it's still you. His looks are just… okay."

Song Huan Yan nodded, "Hmm, let's see him perform a song. By the way, later make sure you don't burst out and expose his disgrace on the spot."

Sang Wan raised an eyebrow, "You still want to give him any face?"

Song Huan Yan sneered, "I will lay a grand plan for him, let him scrape by for a while. When he thinks everything is peaceful, I'll cut off his support!"

Sang Wan and Tang Chenge gave a thumbs‑up.

Song Huan Yan, in a cold tone, "Putting his infidelity aside, he even colludes with a mistress to scheme against me, draining my last ounce of value. So… I will make him lose everything."

Qin Zi Mo indeed went up on stage; the guests, puzzled, all turned to him.

"Yan Yan." Qin Zi Mo, holding the microphone, looked toward Song Huan Yan, facing her direction.

Song Huan Yan didn't even pause her chopsticks, kept eating, and didn't give him a single glance.

She remained unruffled, aloof and lofty.

Qin Zi Mo, however, had to continue, holding the microphone with heartfelt expression, each word resonant and deep, his eyes turning red.

He basically talked about how they fell in love in university, their pure feelings, how many days and months they spent together, and how much he loved her.

He is a movie star, his acting is decent, and his deep affection was rather moving.

The guests on the Song Family side were surprised; they had always thought the Song Family Heiress was only about avoiding a Marriage Alliance, but didn't expect she actually had a boyfriend.

But the guests later were quite moved by what they heard.

Not having a Marriage Alliance is fine; at least there is this pure and passionate love.

The Song Family doesn't have to secure a Marriage Alliance to consolidate.

At the end, running out of words, Qin Zi Mo opened the Ring box, knelt on one knee, "Yan Yan, today was the day we agreed on our Engagement, also your birthday, our Engagement—double joy arrives, Yan Yan I love you!"

The Song Family guests were shocked again, "What?"

"Today is actually also the Engagement day?"

"We never heard the Song Family say that!"

"Oh, maybe it was planned, this deep confession?"

The Song Family parents and Song Qicheng originally saw Song Huan Yan not moving, so they also held back for the moment.

But now Qin Zi Mo, holding the Ring box, half‑kneeling, Song Huan Yan still didn't move…

Song Qicheng gestured with his finger to the bodyguard behind him, and the guard stepped forward.

Song Qicheng said, "Throw him out."

The guard bowed his head, "Yes."

Song Huan Yan finally stood up and said, "Brother, no need."

Song Qicheng stared at her briefly, then nodded.

Song Huan Yan lifted her steps, and Sang Wan and Tang Chenge also stood, "We'll accompany you."

The three of them went up onto the stage.

Qin Zi Mo looked straight at her, raised the Ring high, "Yan Yan, I know you want me to say it with my own mouth, so I'll say it with my own mouth!"

Song Huan Yan: "...."

Sang Wan and Tang Chenge: "...."

It really is a backhanded move.

Who let him say that?

Song Huan Yan hadn't spoken yet, Qin Zi Mo added, "The Ring is personally chosen by me for you; see if you like it. If you don't, I'll buy you another later."

How wonderful, such a deep man—compared to a Marriage Alliance with no feeling, isn't this much better?

Sang Wan looked, smiled, reached for a Ring, "I recognize this Ring's brand; these matching Rings are only a million. Qin Yingdi, you have a net worth of tens of millions; as an Engagement Ring, you can actually afford that?"

Qin Zi Mo's face instantly lost all dignity.

The Song Family guests, upon hearing, burst into laughter.

A million‑dollar Ring— they even thought it low‑grade, yet it could be an Engagement Ring?

Qin Zi Mo explained, "I didn't know Yan Yan's status before. I know, as the Song Family Heiress, giving her this Ring is an insult. Yan Yan, I'm sorry, it's my fault, I… I will definitely buy you a better one. As long as you want it, I'll spend my fortune. Trust me, I'll cherish you like a treasure, never let you down!"

The guests below, hearing this, were somewhat moved, whispering, "The Song Family doesn't lack money; if they have this sincerity, it's rare."

Some also say, "Ha, the Phoenix Man isn't easy to describe; he may be good to you, but it's also to make money!"

"But you can't say that either; the Song Family Heiress is hiding her identity. Would the people the Song Family cultivates be fools? What money could they make? This Phoenix Man is obedient and loyal, so he enjoys wealth and honor; otherwise, haha."

Song Huan Yan looked at Qin Zi Mo indifferently and said, "We've already broken up; even if you say 'Po Tian' it's useless, please behave yourself."

Song Huan Yan left as soon as she finished speaking.

Qin Zi Mo said anxiously, "Why on earth did you break up with me? And pick a day like this! Yan Yan, don't bully me like that."

He even felt aggrieved, and tears fell down.

What no one expected was that Li Peilan and Qin Jiao Jiao went up onto the stage.

Li Peilan cried out, "Yan Yan, you unilaterally ending the relationship—doesn't that bully my son, who has no power or influence? Today was supposed to be the Engagement day you both set, and the guests all know! Why did you choose today to say such heartbreaking words?"

Qin Jiao Jiao also cried, "Sister‑in‑law, my brother has been so good to you, always holding you in his palm, spoiling you in everything, always indulging you. You inexplicably dumped him on the Engagement day; is this to make him unable to survive!"

The guests Qin Zi Mo invited all said, "Indeed, the invitation we received was for the Engagement banquet of Mr. Qin and Miss Song. Who would have thought… Mr. Qin was broken up with on the Engagement day!"

"I was just envying him earlier, sigh, that's just too tragic! The Song Family Heiress is being a bit bullying, right."
