Pointing at the guards in disbelief, Wu Shikong was speechless. He stared blankly at the red-stamped invitation in his hand, but his mind was already in a mess.
What's going on? Why can't I get in?!
While Wu Shikong was still stunned, the guards had already ignored him and continued to check other people's invitations.
"Master Wu, what's going on? Why can't I get in?"
Seeing an endless stream of guests pouring into the manor, the woman next to Wu Shikong looked increasingly grim. She couldn't help shaking Wu Shikong's arm and said coquettishly: "Master, I have never seen such a scene before. I want to go in."
Take a look, just think of a way."
"A way... a way, a way if I miss you!"
Wu Shikong was already extremely irritable. When he was stimulated by the woman's words, he immediately cursed angrily and slapped the woman hard on the face. Then he was about to go forward and continue to discuss with the guards, but in an instant he saw those few
The man's eyes turned cold, and his whole body's energy suddenly rose!
"Want to cause trouble?"
The guard's cold gaze instantly made Wu Shikong's face stiffen, and his legs began to tremble unconsciously. Just as he was about to speak, Qi Xiuquan suddenly stood in front of them.
"Everyone, this is a friend who came with me. He is not a member of the Wu family. It's just a convenience."
Seeing that Qi Xiuquan, who had just entered the door, walked out again, he laughed twice at the two guards, pointed at Wu Shikong, who had already been frightened to the point of dull eyes, and explained with a chuckle.
As soon as he finished speaking, the two guards' eyes were fixed. Before they could speak, Wu Shikong hurriedly threw the invitation to the ground under Qi Xiuquan's cold gaze, and said with a hurried smile:
"That's right, I came here with brother Quan, not...not from the Wu family, you are mistaken."
As soon as these words came out, it caused an unknown stir in an instant.
Those around who were still watching the excitement immediately became controversial when they saw this scene.
The Wu family in Hangzhou still has some respect in the financial circle, and the Hongyu Group is a top-ranked company in Hangzhou. Otherwise, how could they get the invitation to the Ma family's banquet.
But now, Wu Shikong, the second generation ancestor of the majestic martial arts family, abandoned the name of the Hangzhou martial arts family so easily, and echoed the young man's words in a low voice, which instantly shocked the onlookers around him.
Immediately, some people started muttering.
"What the hell, why is Wu Shikong so arrogant? Wasn't he very arrogant just now?"
"Let me go, you don't know yet. Although the Wu family is famous in Hangzhou, it is just a false name. Most of the shares of Hongyu Group are in the hands of the Qi family, who are the major shareholders behind it.
To be honest, the people from the Wu family are just working for others, they are nothing."
"Qijia, you said it's the second-ranked Qijia in Hangzhou's financial circle? The Qijia of Mingzhou Group?"
"Besides this Qi family, is there another Qi family in Hangzhou? Didn't you see that is the fourth son of the Qi family, Qi Xiuquan? You don't recognize both civil and military talents?"
Listening to the conversation of these people around him, Lin Beichen immediately frowned and whispered softly:
"Qualified in both civil and military affairs. Is this Qi Xiuwen's younger brother?" As he spoke, he subconsciously glanced in the direction of Qi Xiuquan.
The next moment, the young man named Qi Xiuquan obviously noticed Lin Beichen's gaze, and immediately looked towards Lin Beichen, with a sneer on his lips, but he did not say anything.
At this time, the two guards discussed it for a while, and finally looked at Qi Xiuquan and snorted coldly: "The rules are the rules. Guests can only bring one person in. Of these two people, which one do you want to bring?" As he said,
Pointing to Wu Shikong and the woman aside.
"Of course it's me. Are you blind?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Shikong shouted impatiently and followed Qi Xiuquan to the door. The woman panicked when she saw this, and hurriedly grabbed Wu Shikong's arm and shouted nervously: "Master, you can't throw it away.
Come on, people want to go in."
"roll!"
With an angry curse, Wu Shikong kicked the woman in the stomach angrily, spat hard, and shouted impatiently: "You are a thing like you, you are worthy of snatching from me, who are you? Hurry up.
Get out of here, or I will kill you!" He glared at the woman fiercely, and the next moment he looked at Qi Xiuquan again in a groveling manner, stretched out his hand to make a sign of invitation, and said with a dry smile:
"Brother Quan, please."
Glancing at Wu Shikong indifferently, Qi Xiuquan sneered and strode into the manor. Wu Shikong, who was so arrogant just now, was following Qi Xiuquan like a dog's leg into the manor.
Before leaving, he glanced at Lin Beichen with disdain and sneered: "Boy, aren't you awesome? I'm here now, what the hell can I do for you, you poor bastard!"
As soon as these words came out, the audience laughed.
How did you enter the manor? Don't you have any idea?
Lin Beichen, on the other hand, was only looked at a few times by the audience, but did not take him seriously.
No one connected Wu Shikong being stopped outside the manor with such a poor boy!
In this way, Wu Shikong's incident was just a small episode, and then the guests entered the manor in an orderly manner, while Lin Beichen was naturally left alone.
No one took him seriously. In the eyes of the audience, Lin Beichen was like a transparent person.
However, just when everyone thought that Lin Beichen would finally leave on his own in despair...
There was a rush of footsteps from a distance, and then a man wearing gold-rimmed glasses and an expensive high-end suit rushed out of the manor in a panic and looked around.
"Mr. Zhang, what's wrong?"
A guard asked softly. The person standing in front of him at this moment was the right-hand man of the richest man, Zhang Xiaoyao!
"Have you seen a gentleman claiming to be Lin Beichen? Where is he?"
At this moment, Zhang Xiaoyao's face was full of panic, and he suddenly looked at the two guards, which made them suddenly stunned.
Mr. Zhang actually knows about that kid!
That kid, who exactly is he coming from?!
Being stared at by Zhang Xiaoyao's extremely nervous gaze, one of the guards immediately swallowed his saliva and subconsciously looked towards the corner of the crowd.
At this moment, Lin Beichen, who was originally isolated, stood alone in the middle of the crowd, extremely conspicuous!
Zhang Xiaoyao followed the guard's gaze and saw Lin Beichen, and his eyes suddenly widened.
The next moment, in full view of everyone, he ran up to Lin Beichen in three steps and two steps at a time. What Zhang Xiaoyao said next shocked everyone.
"Mr. Lin, you're here! Our boss, Ma, has been waiting for you for a long time! Damn it, if I had known you were coming, I should have been waiting at the door. I'm so sorry, I'm so rude, I'm so rude."
As he spoke, Zhang Xiaoyao's expression was extremely respectful, even flattering, as if he was afraid that the ordinary-dressed young man in front of him would be unhappy.
The next moment, while everyone was stunned, Zhang Xiaoyao hurriedly bowed and made a gesture of invitation to the poor loser.
Seeing the rich man Ma's right-hand man welcoming Lin Beichen into the manor so respectfully, the people around him who had just been sarcastic and sarcastic towards Lin Beichen suddenly opened their mouths wide, their expressions as ugly as if they had eaten shit.
What the hell is going on?
Are they dazzled, or has the world really changed?
Such a poor loser actually...actually entered the manor, and was personally welcomed by Zhang Xiaoyao, entering in such a grand manner!
Crazy, this world is really crazy!
The shock that Lin Beichen brought to these people was far beyond their imagination. Even the prominent characters who entered the manor later did not attract the attention of these people.
And the woman who was thrown outside the door by Wu Shikong was slumped on the ground at this moment, her face bloodless.
At this moment, she finally understood why Wu Shikong was unable to enter the manor even though he had the invitation. In the end, he relied on the Qi family's means to enter.
Recalling what the man said when she met him before, the woman instantly felt a chill all over her body:
"This Wu family, I don't think it is necessary to attend the Ma family banquet this time. That Hongyu Group, I'll leave it to you."
