Chapter 623: Pretty Boy

"This place is the Kelly Hotel." Huo Yu parked the car in front of a magnificent hotel.

"When this Kelly Hotel was first built, it cost nearly ten billion, and the consumption here is extremely high. I never expected the Yan Family to book the entire hotel just for a birthday banquet; they really are big spenders," Huo Yu said, looking at the hotel in front of him with a sigh.

"Don't you know? This hotel is actually an asset of the Yan Family. Using their own property to host guests doesn't seem like anything special," Chen Jing said, raising an eyebrow.

"No way, I remember the big boss of this hotel is surnamed Lu, right?" Huo Yu asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Have you forgotten? The wife of that man surnamed Lu is surnamed Yan!" Chen Jing reached out and tapped Huo Yu on the forehead. "Besides, do you think someone could build a behemoth like the Kelly Hotel without a major power supporting them from behind?"

"That, it seems that's the case," Huo Yu said, rubbing his head.

"Hello, please show your invitation." Seeing that the person who arrived was brought personally by Huo Yu, the waiter standing at the entrance did not dare to be negligent and hurried up to greet them.

One must know that although the Huo Family is not as powerful as the Yan Family in Rong City, it is still one of the top families. As the only son of the Huo Family Clan Master, Huo Yu is in all likelihood the future heir. Someone he could personally escort must certainly not be an ordinary person.

"This is our invitation." Lingyun took out the invitation and handed it to the waiter.

"This..." Looking at the several invitations in his hand, the waiter's expression changed slightly.

At first, he thought that among these people, only one or two would have invitations, as each invitation issued by the Yan Family could bring two people. But now, the five people standing in front of him each had an invitation. And they were gold-inlaid invitations at that.

To be able to have the Yan Family send out such invitations, and to be so young, they must not be ordinary people. As for saying this invitation was forged, that was even more impossible. In the entire Huaxia, how many people would dare to forge an invitation from the Yan Family? Thinking of this, the respect on the waiter's face could not help but increase by a few points.

"Please follow me, ladies and gentlemen." The waiter handed the invitations back to Lingyun and said obsequiously.

"Well, Big Sister, I'll head back first. I still need to go look after my sister," Huo Yu said to Chen Jing.

"Go on," Chen Jing said, waving her hand.

"Big Sister?" Hearing this, the waiter's head lowered a few more inches.

In all of Rong City, who didn't know that the young master of the Huo Family had a perverse personality? Being called "Big Sister" by such a perverse person already explained a lot of things.

"Lingyun, is Alice not coming?" Su Wanyue asked in a low voice.

"Alice doesn't like this kind of environment, and she seems to have gained something after the Peak Martial Duel, so she went straight into seclusion. I don't want to disturb her," Lingyun explained.

"So that's how it is." Su Wanyue nodded slightly.

"There really are quite a lot of people rushing here to offer birthday wishes," Chen Jing couldn't help but say after entering the hotel lobby and seeing the people coming and going.

"It's said that the Yan Family spent a huge sum this time. I wonder how many invitations they sent out. It's just the old man of the Yan Family having a birthday banquet, why make it so grand?" Su Wanyue raised her eyebrows slightly.

"Yo, isn't this our Miss Wanyue? How come even you have come?" Just at this moment, a somewhat sarcastic voice came over.

Lingyun and the others turned their heads at the sound. A woman dressed in flashy, gaudy clothes was clinging to a man in a formal suit, looking at them with a smug expression.

"Tsk, so it's you, Su Yufei, you peacock. Why did you travel thousands of miles to this place to attend the Yan Family old man's birthday banquet?" Seeing Su Yufei, Chen Jing didn't hold back and retorted directly.

"Chen Jing, you are actually here too?" Seeing Chen Jing appear, Su Yufei's body couldn't help but tremble; she clearly had some psychological trauma regarding Chen Jing.

But it seemed the man beside her gave her confidence. She puffed out her chest and said without hesitation: "I was brought in personally by my dear!"

Watching the surging waves on Su Yufei's chest, a glimmer flashed in Chen Jing's eyes, and she muttered in an extremely small voice: "Cow!"

This sound was extremely faint; if Lingyun's hearing hadn't been exceptionally sharp, he really wouldn't have heard those two words.

"I am Yi Tianqi, Young Villa Master of Swordplay Villa. Greetings to you all. May I ask the names of these ladies?" Yi Tianqi cupped his hands toward Lingyun and the others, but paired with the formal suit he was wearing, it always made people feel a bit awkward.

"So it is Mr. Yi." Chen Jing nodded at Yi Tianqi but did not state her name.

A trace of gloom flashed in Yi Tianqi's eyes when he saw this, but it was quickly suppressed, and no displeasure showed on his face.

Seeing Yi Tianqi's gaze lingering on the four women, a trace of displeasure flashed across Su Yufei's face, and she immediately said: "Hey, Chen Jing, are you trying to change the subject? I asked you earlier how you entered the Kelly Hotel. Could it be that you snuck in?"

Hearing Su Yufei say this, a trace of doubt also flashed across Yi Tianqi's face. The people invited by the Yan Family this time were clearly not ordinary. How did these four women before him manage to enter the Kelly Hotel?

"We are not like you, relying on others to get in. We came in fair and square!" Chen Jing flashed the invitation in her hand and looked at Su Yufei with a mocking expression.

"This, how is this possible?" Seeing the gold-inlaid invitation in Chen Jing's hand, Su Yufei couldn't help but open her mouth wide.

A gold-inlaid invitation is the highest-spec invitation of the Yan Family. Everyone who can receive a gold-inlaid invitation must possess an extraordinary status. But no matter how she looked at it, Chen Jing did not meet this condition. After all, even Yi Tianqi beside her had only received a silver-edged invitation.

But if one were to say this invitation was forged, that was even more impossible. The Yan Family is not an ordinary family; how could anyone dare to forge their invitation, especially the highest-level one? This was absolutely impossible.

"Don't think that just because you can't get an invitation, others can't either!" Chen Jing put away the invitation in her hand and said to Su Yufei with a flat expression.

Seeing that she couldn't do anything to Chen Jing, Su Yufei turned her target directly to Lingyun.

"Su Wanyue, I said why you didn't agree to all those outstanding men chasing you before. So it turns out you took a fancy to this pretty boy?"

Lingyun only felt a bunch of black lines appearing on his forehead; he clearly didn't understand at all why Su Yufei would suddenly pin such a huge pot on his head.

"Hahahaha—" Hearing Su Yufei say this, Chen Jing couldn't help but laugh. "Lingyun, you, you were actually mistaken for a pretty boy by someone else? This has to be the biggest joke I've ever heard!"

The corners of Lingyun's mouth also twitched slightly; he was clearly speechless about this matter.
