From Rejected Fake Heiress to Desired True Love
Chapter 211: Great Figure

Chapter 211: Chapter 211: Great Figure

Zhou Hongqi, Liu Yanfang, and Zhou Jingya arrived at the entrance to the banquet hall.

Upon reaching the location, Liu Yanfang handed over the invitation and was about to enter when she was stopped.

"What do you mean? Why are you stopping us?" Liu Yanfang asked disdainfully.

The waiter said, "Ma’am, this invitation is fake, you cannot enter the banquet hall."

All three: ??

The three of them were completely dumbfounded, what was happening?

Zhou Hongqi and Zhou Jingya looked at Liu Yanfang in unison, as the invitation was obtained by her, any issue would surely be her responsibility.

Liu Yanfang was also clueless about how things turned out this way.

The waiter continued, "Take a good look, this invitation cannot get you into the banquet hall. If you don’t believe me, wait and see what other people’s invitations look like."

Liu Yanfang took out her phone to make a call.

She made ten calls, but no one answered.

Zhou Hongqi’s face darkened several shades as he pulled Liu Yanfang aside.

"That’s enough, don’t make a fool of yourself here."

Zhou Hongqi’s angry demeanor made Liu Yanfang too afraid to raise her voice.

"Old Zhou, the person who sold me the invitation said it was this place."

Liu Yanfang’s words drew Zhou Hongqi’s dissatisfaction as he frowned and said, "Liu Yanfang, are you an idiot? Paying for an invitation without verifying its authenticity, are you stupid or what?"

Zhou Jingya: "Mom, you’ve been deceived by someone."

Although she didn’t want to admit it, faced with the situation before her, Liu Yanfang had no choice but to concede defeat.

It was very warm outside, and the three of them in their expensive clothes, standing at the entrance, soon had their clothing soaked with sweat, and their makeup began to smear.

Zhou Hongqi, in a fit of anger, lowered his voice and said, "Let’s go, don’t embarrass ourselves here!"

Zhou Jingya: "Dad, let’s wait a little longer. What if Brother Zhengyang shows up, he might take us in."

Zhou Hongqi’s eyes brightened; this was indeed a good idea.

As long as they could get in, it didn’t matter who they went in with.

The process didn’t matter, the result was most important.

They waited and waited, but Lu Zhengyang didn’t show up, instead Nan Qiao and Rong Yan arrived.

Rong Yan was now the sought-after designer at the company, Nan Qiao brought him along thinking of future arrangements.

Rong Yan got out of the car and rushed to open the door for Nan Qiao.

As the car door opened, onlookers could catch a glimpse of a slender, pale leg.

Nan Qiao stepped out of the car, stood on the ground in a black waist-cinched long dress, her hair up in a bun, adorned with diamond earrings, looking dignified and radiant.

The Zhou family of three was dumbstruck, in disbelief as they watched Nan Qiao.

It wasn’t until Nan Qiao walked inside that they came back to reality.

Was the dazzling, unimaginably beautiful woman they just saw Nan Qiao?

Liu Yanfang stormed over to the waiter and demanded, "Why can they go in?"

The waiter took out an invitation, "Ma’am, this is what a real invitation looks like."

Liu Yanfang’s invitation in her hand was pale pink, while the waiter’s was pale purple, not even the colors matched.

Liu Yanfang stood there stunned, forced to accept reality, feeling depressed and uncomfortable.

As the three of them were about to leave, a Bentley pulled up at the entrance.

All three turned their gaze towards it, and a man in a suit and leather shoes, young and handsome with a commanding presence, stepped out from within the car.

Zhou Jingya’s eyes were glued; this man looked wealthy and prestigious, leagues above Lu Zhengyang.

Liu Yanfang asked, "Who is this person?"

Zhou Hongqi had no answer; his status did not afford him encounters with such individuals.

The waiter glanced at the trio and said, "This is Bai Jingting, the Bai Family’s Eldest Young Master. Have you really never seen Young Mr. Bai?"

All three: "..."

Even a mere waiter dared to look down on them!

Liu Yanfang scoffed dismissively, but said nothing.

Zhou Jingya furrowed her brow, "Mom, Dad, don’t you think that Bai Jingting and Nan Qiao share some resemblance in their eyes and brows?"

Although it was just a quick glance from afar, Bai Jingting’s face had left a deep impression on the three of them.

Zhou Hongqi muttered to himself, "They do look somewhat alike."

Liu Yanfang couldn’t tell, and was unwilling to believe.

Liu Yanfang stubbornly said, "What resemblance? They don’t look alike at all!"

Zhou Hongqi: "Let it go, no more thinking about it. How could Nan Qiao possibly be a member of the Bai Family!"

Liu Yanfang: "If that damn girl Nan Qiao were the Bai Family’s privileged daughter, the news would have reported it long ago."

Zhou Jingya let out a sigh of relief, "Mom’s right, if Nan Qiao really were the Bai Family’s heiress, she would’ve declared her identity long ago! Unless she’s an idiot, she wouldn’t keep her status secret!"

Such a dazzling identity, who wouldn’t want it!

Zhou Jingya was frowning in resentment and did not wish to speak further.

Just as the three were about to leave, they bumped into Lu Zhengyang and his mother.

Ren Yongshi was wearing a sleek cheongsam, accompanied by the equally well-dressed and capable Lu Zhengyang.

Lu Zhengyang did not expect to see Zhou family’s trio here, nor did he anticipate their disheveled state.

Especially Zhou Jingya, with her makeup ruined and sweat gracing her forehead.

Ren Yongshi smirked, "Mr. Zhou, why aren’t you going in?"

Zhou Hongqi didn’t know how to reply, and Liu Yanfang said, "We have family matters to attend to and can’t go in."

Ren Yongshi drew out the word "oh" with a laugh-not-laugh look at her, "Is it that you don’t have the time to go or you just can’t get in?"

Liu Yanfang nearly lost her composure; Ren Yongshi was deliberately provoking her.

Lu Zhengyang furrowed his brow, "Mom, let’s go inside."

Ren Yongshi: "It’s too hot here, let’s go inside where it’s cool. If we end up like some people, makeup smeared and covered in sweat, what then?"

Lu Zhengyang and Ren Yongshi walked in together, and Zhou Jingya watched them go, her anger peaking.

Zhou Hongqi questioned, "Xiao Ya, didn’t you say Lu Zhengyang treats you well? Is this how someone who treats you well acts? He didn’t even take you with him when he went inside!"

Liu Yanfang: "That bastard Lu Zhengyang, he’s just a mama’s boy, how could you count on him!"

Liu Yanfang frowned, the more she thought about it, the angrier she got.

"We should leave," said Zhou Jingya, not wanting to endure further humiliation.

Zhou Jingya departed, Liu Yanfang dragging Zhou Hongqi along.

"Still standing here for what? How embarrassing! Hurry up, let’s go home!"

The three of them didn’t even make it through the door, let alone reclaim what wasn’t theirs, and walked away dejectedly.

...

Inside the banquet hall, guests mingled while clinking glasses and engaging in jovial conversation.

Waiters with various beverages weaved through the crowd.

Everyone was clad in luxurious attire, hair meticulously styled, smiles on their faces, all enjoying the merriment.

Ren Yongshi’s gaze caught Nan Qiao among the crowd; the black dress accentuated her shapely figure, her proportions were excellent, and her crimson lips were like a rose blooming in the night.

She turned to Lu Zhengyang beside her and said, "Lu Zhengyang, take a good look, this is the kind of woman who’s worthy of you."

Lu Zhengyang’s gaze fell upon Nan Qiao, taking her in; he hadn’t realized just how well-proportioned she was.
