s.h.i.+ Qinglan was wearing an evening gown and light make-up, so her pretty face was more seductive than usual and her eyes were even more bewitching.

Her shoulders were well-formed, her waist was narrow, and her figure was exquisite.

Even while holding a coconut chocolate ball in her hand, her mannerisms were elegantly alluring.

This is a high-cla.s.s charity dinner that is only by invitation. What are you doing here? Xu Sheng said with a cold expression.

s.h.i.+ Qinglan pouted her red lips as she popped that coconut chocolate ball into her mouth. Even the way she ate the snack was incredibly seductive. You said it yourself. Only by invitation.

Hence, of course, she was here because she had the invite.

Xu Sheng narrowed his eyes with disdain. You are just the adopted daughter of the Shen Family. Where did you get the invite when the Shens are not even qualified to come here?

Hmm. Maybe Id stolen it.

s.h.i.+ Qinglan lowered her eyes. She wiped her hands with a handkerchief before picking a new item again.

Obviously, she didnt want to entertain Xu Sheng, but the guy didnt get her hint at all. Instead, he raised his voice. You stole the invite?

The people around them began to look over.

Realizing that she was being watched, s.h.i.+ Qinglan retrieved her hand that was about to pick up the macarons and threw Xu Sheng a side glance.

I was wondering how an ordinary person from the slums like you got the invite to this banquet. Xu Shengs expression was even colder as he refused to let go. Since you have admitted that you have stolen it and we are schoolmates, I will not get the security officers to throw you out. You leave on your own accord now!

s.h.i.+ Qinglan was so angry that she laughed out loud. She was just fooling around with him with a nonsensical answer, but she hadnt expected Xu Sheng to really believe it. Young Master Xu, since you have an invite, you should know that the name of the guest is written on it.

Xu Sheng frowned. Of course, he knew that.

But he just couldnt understand how s.h.i.+ Qinglan got the invite, so he was fixated on the theory that she had stolen it.

Quit the quibbling! Since you dare to send your foster sister to the police station with false accusations, do you think I would believe your words?

Xu Sheng was fierce, and the way he accused her with confidence had also convinced the surrounding crowd.

How could there be people who entered here by stealing the invite

I thought this was a high-cla.s.s charity dinner. I didnt expect a girl from the slums to barge in as she wishes?

What a killjoy! Quick, get the security officers to throw her out!

Some of the rich families in Mingcheng knew Xu Sheng, but they hadnt noticed that s.h.i.+ Qinglan had come in with Bo Yucheng. Thus, they were trying to stir up trouble to get into the Xu Familys good books.

s.h.i.+ Qinglan laughed softly. Young Master Xu, dont seek your own demise.

Of course, Xu Sheng missed the threat in her tone. He frowned with a cold expression. If you are going to be so thick-skinned and stubborn, I am going to call the security officers! Dont blame me for embarra.s.sing you!

Call, then. s.h.i.+ Qinglan was unfazed.

Xu Sheng didnt expect she would take the hard way. But he also didnt want to lose face in front of all these people, so he shouted furiously, Security! Someone got here with a stolen invite. Come and throw her out now!

The security officers responsible for the order in the banquet hall quickly stepped up after hearing the Young Master Xus call. Miss, dont blame us for being rude since you have antagonized Young Master Xu!

They were prepared to carry s.h.i.+ Qinglan away.

But a cold voice suddenly said, Wait a minute!

s.h.i.+ Qingjue strode into the banquet hall and started to appraise the situation with narrowed eyes. What is happening here?
