“You must be mistaken. How could this invitation possibly be fake?” Chen Fan frowned slightly. The invitation was given to him by Sun Miao, and knowing Sun Miao’s character, there was no way he would hand over a counterfeit invitation.

“People like you, carrying fake invitations, we’ve already kicked out several groups,” the guard sneered. “You’re all just trying to sneak into the banquet. Get lost quickly and don’t block the other guests from entering.”

At that moment, the guests waiting behind also began to murmur among themselves.

Many eyes turned toward Ye Qingcheng.

“That woman looks like Ye Qingcheng. How embarrassing—she’s trying to sneak in with a fake invitation.”

“Old Master Ye was a heroic figure, known for his integrity. Who would have thought his granddaughter’s character would be so low. If he knew, he’d be so furious he wouldn’t be able to rest in peace!”

“The Ye family is going downhill generation after generation.”

Every word of the guests’ gossip was heard clearly by Ye Qingcheng.

Her lips pressed tightly together, her face darkened to the extreme.

At that moment, Ye Qingcheng felt like a rat scurrying across the street, wishing she could just disappear into the cracks of the ground.

She had never been so humiliated in her life.

And all this was thanks to Chen Fan.

She felt foolish for believing Chen Fan’s lies.

She had begged countless people, pleaded with everyone, yet couldn’t get an invitation; how could Chen Fan have obtained one so easily?

Chen Fan was still arguing with the guards, demanding to see the person in charge.

The guard’s face darkened. “Kid, don’t you know what day it is today? Keep causing trouble and you won’t be leaving here anytime soon.”

Chen Fan wanted to say more, but Ye Qingcheng snapped coldly, “Enough, Chen Fan! Are you not embarrassed enough already?”

“My invitation is genuine. They’re deliberately making things difficult.”

“These are the guards of the City Lord’s residence, maintaining order for tonight’s event,” Ye Qingcheng said coldly. “Why would they single you out? Do you have a grudge against them or something?”

“Hey, Qingcheng, I didn’t expect it to be you,” a richly dressed young gentleman suddenly approached, his face bright with surprise as he looked at Ye Qingcheng.

“Jiang Dong, what are you doing here?”

Ye Qingcheng did not expect to run into her university classmate here.

She remembered Jiang Dong was from the provincial capital and had extensive connections there.

“It’s been years since university. I didn’t expect to see you here,” Jiang Dong smiled. “My father was just transferred from the provincial capital to be the deputy city lord here in Jin City. I came along to develop my career.”

Hearing this, Ye Qingcheng’s eyes lit up and she quickly asked, “Jiang Dong, can you get me in?”

This banquet was extremely important to her.

She didn’t want to miss it.

“Of course!” Jiang Dong readily agreed. He had once pursued Ye Qingcheng during their university days.

Unfortunately, for various reasons, it never worked out.

Now that they had met again, how could he miss this opportunity?

Perhaps tonight, they could spend a memorable evening together.

Jiang Dong led Ye Qingcheng into the venue without even showing an invitation. The guards didn’t dare stop them.

After all, he was the deputy city lord’s son—they wouldn’t risk offending him.

Chen Fan also tried to follow, but was blocked by the guards.

“What do you mean by this? Didn’t you see we’re together?”

“Get lost!”

The guards didn’t even bother to waste another word on Chen Fan.

Chen Fan was furious.

Meanwhile, Ye Qingcheng, despite hearing the commotion between Chen Fan and the guards, acted as if it had nothing to do with her.

She continued chatting and laughing with Jiang Dong as they entered the banquet hall.
