You were not invited!
"I have an invitation, what right do you all have to act like this!" Qin Yicheng immediately started yelling.
But all he could do was yell loudly as he really could not afford to offend Yan Jingheng.
At that moment, two other security guards also went towards Qin Muran's table.
"Why is your dad not here yet?" Lu Yaran was looking around for Qin Yicheng.
"It must be that Qin Yan who refuses to listen," Since there were quite a lot of people seated at her table, she could not speak without restraint and hence lowered her voice, "Who knows what method she used this time, it must have been hard for her to get to this banquet, how could she agree to leave so easily?"
"Madam Qin, Miss Qin," At that instant, Suo Wei brought two security guards over.
"Miss Suo", Qin Muran instantly stood up, surprised on seeing Suo Wei greet her. Since Suo Wei had neglected them earlier, she really did not expect Suo Wei to personally come over and greet her later. Qin Yicheng had told her everything about the banquet so she knew that Suo Wei was the editor-in-chief of Yan Corporation's magazine.
Qin Muran could not help but straighten her back gloatingly. Initially, she thought that Qin Corporation was not ranked high but now seeing Suo Wei greet them, it seemed that the position of Qin Corporation still existed in the circle.
Suo Wei smiled and spoke in such a polite manner that no one could find anything weird about her request, "Madam Qin, Miss Qin, may I ask that you step outside for a minute."
Even though there were two security guards following behind, Qin Muran did not even suspect anything because of Suo Wei's politeness and willingly followed Suo Wei out of the venue along with Lu Yaran.
"Miss Qin, I apologize, but this time, the organizers have made a mistake, you are actually not invited, I'll have people send you off immediately," Suddenly Suo Wei's tone changed, and she was not very polite like before. After all, she was well known in the business world and very few people dared to offend her.
So even if the Qin family hated her because of this, she did not care.
Furthermore, this time, she had received direct orders from Yan Jingheng.
Moreover, Yan Jingheng even had a bit of a blaming tone, because she was the one who was responsible for the invites, reprimanding her on how could she let the declining Qin Corporation be invited!
Because of this, Suo Wei also blamed the Qin family. Actually, the initial guest list really did not have Qin family's name on it, but every year some companies would use all kind of ways just to get an invitation from her subordinate who was responsible for sending out the invitations.
Every year, there would be two or three invitations that would get leaked out, but that was a very normal thing.
Yet who knew that this year it would cause Yan Jingheng to take notice and scold her for not doing things well.
Therefore, without waiting for Qin family to hate Suo Wei, Suo Wei started to hate the Qins.
Before Qin Muran could even react, Lu Yaran exploded, "What do you mean? Are you dismissing it by simply calling it a mistake? The invitation has the Qin family's name written on it, even the nameplates on the table have our names on it, how can this be called a mistake?"
"Mom," Qin Muran anxiously grabbed Lu Yaran's arm, "Mom, don't say anything else."
She knew that Suo Wei could not be offended. Previously, the latter had not greeted Qin Yicheng but Qin Yicheng could not do anything other than swallowing the insult. It showed that the Qin family was not on par with Suo Wei.
Yet how could Qin Muran swallow this insult?
Tears of humiliation welled up in Qin Muran's eyes, "Miss Suo, we will leave. But I just want you to tell me the truth, what is the reason that you want us to leave?"
Of course, Suo Wei would not expose Yan Jingheng, "It is really a mistake, this time it's our error, don't worry, we will not tell outsiders about this."
"We are not leaving!" Lu Yaran did not know the severity of the situation.
She was just a rich housewife who did not know much about the business world. She thought that Suo Wei was just an Editor-in-Chief of a magazine who did not hold much importance.
"What right do you have to ask us to leave? You want to send us away with just calling it a mistake? You must give us an explanation!" Lu Yaran gave a cold hmph, "I'm telling you, our family isn't going to take this lying down!"
"Mom, stop talking already," Qin Muran pretended to stop her.
She did not dare to anger Suo Wei in the fear that Qin Yicheng would scold her later, but she could not take this lying down, and hence let Lu Yaran scold Suo Wei while she pretended to be a good person who was stopping her.
So from the beginning to the end, Qin Muran did not suffer any loss at all.
Suo Wei smiled coldly, "Madam Qin, you gave birth to a really good daughter."
Qin Muran's petty scheme could not escape Suo Wei's notice.
Only Lu Yaran was unaware, shaking away Qin Muran's hands, "Stop meddling with this, you have too good of a temper, that's why you are always bullied by people. First, you were being bullied by that stupid Qin Yan and now you are getting bullied by a lowly Editor-in-Chief!"
"Enough!" Qin Yicheng had already been chased out of the banquet hall and was making his way to the main entrance. Just as he was about to leave, he noticed that Qin Muran and Lu Yaran were also being brought out.
And he had even heard Lu Yaran boast shamelessly!
Qin Yicheng could not even imagine that she would act so dumb right now!
He strode over quickly and harshly pulled Lu Yaran aside, "What rubbish are you speaking!"
"I—"
Qin Muran hurriedly pulled Lu Yaran, "Mom, don't say any more."
Qin Yicheng looked at Suo Wei unhappily and then said to Qin Muran, "Let's go!"
Lu Yaran wanted to open her mouth to say something when she was suddenly pulled away by Qin Muran and thus could only follow unhappily.
"Dad, what's going on? Didn't you go to find Elder Sister? Why did you come from outside?" Qin Muran asked quickly.
"I'll tell you once we get in the car." Right now, Qin Yicheng was extremely furious, so it was not good to speak in public.
Yet who would have known that they would immediately get surrounded by a large group of reporters once they came out of the hotel entrance!
"Mr. Qin, the charity auction has yet to begin, why did you come out so early?"
"I have insider information that you weren't actually invited today, is that right?"
"Mr. Qin, tell us about it."
"What are you all doing, get lost! Get lost!" Lu Yaran tried to block herself from all the cameras.
But there were so many reporters, how could she manage to block them all, there were still quite a few long camera lenses that directly pressed onto her face.
As a result, Lu Yaran's forehead and jaw were hit quite a few times.
"Get lost, all of you, where are the security officers?" Qin Muran was also anxious and could no longer bother to maintain her image.
How did these reporters get to know about this so fast!
"Sister Suo, the Qin family have been surrounded by reporters outside, should we—"
"There's no need," Suo Wei's face was cold, "They don't need our help."
Previously, Lu Yaran had been so arrogant. What had she said?
She's just a small Editor-in-Chief and could not afford to offend their Qin Family.
If they were so impressive and awesome, why did Lu Yaran need their help!
Suo Wei turned around and went to report the situation to Yan Jingheng.
As soon as Yan Jingheng heard the news, he immediately gave Xi Ting a call, "Older Brother Xi, I've chased them away already, where are you now?"
"As long as you've chased them away it's alright," Xi Ting did not even bother to say anything else and just hung up the call.
"…" Yan Jingheng stared at his phone speechlessly, "Hai, these group of older brothers, all they do is kick people to the curb once they've outlived their usefulness."0
Yan Jingheng thought about it, what did Xi Ting say earlier?
It seemed like he was near the bathrooms.
Yan Jingheng stood up and headed towards the bathroom.
*
As soon as Qin Yicheng was dragged away, Xi Ting walked towards Qin Yan, "Are you okay?"
Xi Ting was unhappy and raised Qin Yan's hand towards his lips. Then his hot, wet lips carefully kissed all the finger marks on her hand.
