In the pavilion, the smile on Xu Yaoyang's face shattered as if struck by a hammer, then froze there.
A moment ago, he had been boasting about his connections and declaring that someone like Yue Xiaofei could not even get through the gate.
And now?
Yue Xiaofei had not only gotten in; the Security Guards had respectfully invited him inside!
The slap in the face had been swift and brutal!
The mocking smiles of the privileged young heirs around him froze too. Their mouths hung open as though they had seen the impossible.
"Am I seeing things? The Security Guards... let him in?"
"That Invitation of his... was real?!"
"You've got to be kidding! How could some hick who arrived in a taxi get an Invitation to Elder Xu's birthday banquet?!"
Su Wanning stood stunned, her mind blank.
While everyone was still reeling, Yue Xiaofei walked into the inner grounds of Dragon Spring Manor.
Tap, tap, tap!
The moment he entered, Xu Yaoyang hurried over to meet him.
"Hey! Hold on! Not bad, kid. You really managed to sneak your way in."
He spoke just loudly enough for everyone in the nearby pavilion to hear.
"I'm Xu Yaoyang. My father is Deputy Director Xu at the National Development and Reform Commission. I'm friends with Wanning, and I brought her here today to see what an event like this is like. What's your name, buddy? Where do you work?"
As he spoke, he deliberately straightened his chest and showed off the expensive Vacheron Constantin watch on his wrist.
Yue Xiaofei gave him a cool glance. "Yue Xiaofei. I don't have a job."
Xu Yaoyang's smile widened at the answer.
No job?
So he was unemployed?
Xu Yaoyang glanced at Su Wanning, then spoke as if something had just dawned on him.
