When Ye Yu returned to the classroom, her deskmate Li Qian asked her what she had been doing, and Ye Yu told her about what happened last night.

The students sitting at the desks in front and behind them also turned around to look at the photo when they heard it.

Lin Qiaowei, who had been keeping an eye on Ye Yu, was secretly pleased to hear that Wang Wan had led people to ambush Ye Yu.

But when he heard that Ye Yu had been rescued by a passerby and that a photo had been taken and given to the head teacher, his face darkened again.

She sat in her seat cursing Ye Yu for a while before taking out a beautifully crafted invitation from her drawer and walking up to Ye Yu.

He handed it to her and said, "Ye Yu, tomorrow is the weekend, and it's also my birthday. My dad has booked a banquet at the Wanyu Hotel and asked me to invite my classmates there to celebrate my birthday with me. You absolutely have to come!"

Ye Yu smiled and accepted the invitation: "I will definitely come."

Seeing that Ye Yu agreed, Lin Qiaowei returned to her seat with a smug look on her face.

Wanyu Hotel is the most famous hotel in Zhang City. A meal there can cost tens of thousands of yuan. She had to beg her parents for a long time before they agreed to let her celebrate her birthday there.

Ye Yu's family just runs a small shop, right? Would they really be willing to eat at the Wanyu Grand Hotel?

Seeing Lin Qiaowei leave, Ye Yu casually tossed the invitation into her bag and continued talking to Li Qian and the others.

Early in the morning, Ye Yu finished meditating on the Qingli tree, returned to her room to wash up and get ready before going out.

She drove up to Li Qian's apartment building, where Li Qian was already waiting by the roadside. Ye Yu rolled down her window and waved to her.

Li Qian ran over in surprise and looked at Ye Yu's car: "You can actually drive?"

"Yes, I just got my driver's license recently, but I drive very safely, so you can get in without worry," Ye Yu explained.

Li Qian opened the car door and got in, looking around: "It's a new car, I really envy you, I don't even have a driver's license yet."

"A car is just a means of transportation," Ye Yu said, changing the subject. "Which shopping mall should we go to to buy a gift later?"

Li Qian's thoughts shifted to the gifts. She gave Ye Yu directions, and after they arrived at the mall, they each picked out a gift, wrapped it up, and drove directly to the Wanyu Hotel.

They went up to the third floor and entered a small banquet hall, where Lin Qiaowei was surrounded by some people, laughing happily.

Today she was wearing a white, fitted, puffy dress, her hair in a bun with a delicate bow hair clip in front, and light makeup, showing that she had dressed up carefully.

Upon seeing Ye Yu and the other person enter, she greeted them warmly, saying, "You're here! Thank you for coming to celebrate my birthday with me."

Ye Yu and Li Qian handed her the gifts and said, "Happy birthday."

Lin Qiaowei took the gifts and placed them on top of the gifts that were already piled up on the table.

Just as Ye Yu and her companion were about to talk to the other classmates, Lin Qiaowei stopped them.

Ye Yu smiled, clearly having an ulterior motive.

She feigned confusion and asked, "Is there anything else?"

Lin Qiaowei introduced Ye Yu to her friends, who were of both genders, saying, "This is Ye Yu from our class. Her family owns the Lingpin Hot Pot restaurant."

He then turned to Ye Yu and introduced them, saying, "These are all my friends, especially Sister Zhang Lin, whose family also runs a restaurant. They have dozens of stores in Zhang City. Ye Yu, you should get closer to Sister Zhang Lin."

After Lin Qiaowei finished speaking, she playfully winked at the two of them.

Ye Yu immediately got goosebumps.

She nodded casually to the group and turned to leave. Zhang Lin sneered, "Qiao Wei, you were kind enough to introduce her to your connections, but she hasn't even taken a liking to you yet. It's just a small shop, all you do is offer empty platitudes."

Okay, another person successfully brainwashed by Lin Qiaowei.

Ye Yu, of course, wouldn't indulge her. She said calmly, "Have you taken over the family business? Do you call the shots in your own home? If not, what kind of connections do you have?"

"You!" Zhang Lin pointed at Ye Yu and said, "Even if you don't have any, you're still better than me. Look at your poor and pathetic appearance."

Seeing that her classmates had gathered around, Lin Qiaowei pretended to mediate and said, "Sister Zhang Lin, Ye Yu, it's all my fault. Please stop arguing for my sake."

"If you're not poor, don't wear a second-hand necklace." After Ye Yu finished speaking, everyone looked at Zhang Lin's neck.

The necklace she was wearing was the same luxury necklace that Ye Yu had sold at Hualong Pawnshop before, which wasn't exactly a good investment.

Zhang Lin immediately covered the necklace around her neck, saying, "You're talking nonsense."

She said that, but she still felt guilty.

She wasn't favored at home and didn't have much money. She had carefully selected this necklace from the Hualong Pawnshop.

Because necklaces don't hold their value very well, she still gritted her teeth and bought them; after all, they were a luxury item.

Thinking about this, she calmed down. How could Ye Yu, a poor man, know about these luxury goods? It must have been by accident.

She lowered her hand, revealing the necklace around her neck, and showed it to others, saying, "Do you know it's a luxury item? Do you know how much it costs? You probably haven't even seen one like it before, have you?"

Most of the people around her were classmates, and they were all stunned by what she said.

"Excuse me, I bought this necklace from Hualong Pawnshop."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Lin's face flushed red: "What evidence do you have to prove that you sold this?"

"Ye Yu, stop arguing. Apologize to Sister Zhang Lin. That's a luxury item, very expensive." Lin Qiaowei also stepped in to play the peacemaker.

Ye Yu ignored her, took out her phone, found the electronic transaction information sent to her by Hualong Pawnshop, and placed it in front of Zhang Lin and Lin Qiaowei, saying, "Unfortunately, I happen to have it here."

Upon seeing this, their expressions changed immediately. Zhang Lin was furious that her lie had been exposed, while Lin Qiaowei was embarrassed.

The surrounding classmates whispered among themselves. Lin Qiaowei tugged at Ye Yu's sleeve: "Ye Yu, please let it go for my birthday today. Give me some face."

Ye Yu withdrew her hand: "I've already given you a lot of face. Before, Wang Wan came to pick a fight with me because you instigated her. Now you're using the same method and you still expect me to give you face?"

"What are you saying? I don't understand."

Ye Yu tapped a few more times on her phone, and a video played, which was the conversation between Wang Wan and Ye Yu that night.

Lin Qiaowei couldn't keep up the act any longer.

Seeing her colorful expression, Ye Yu felt that the world wasn't entirely without merit; at least some of the things people invented were quite practical.

For example, this mobile phone.

The students also saw the video and whispered among themselves, "So Lin Qiaowei was the one who was really scheming."

Zhang Lin also realized what was happening, glared fiercely at Lin Qiaowei, and walked out the door.

Ye Yu didn't want to stay there either, so she said goodbye to Li Qian, and the two of them headed towards the door.

I ran into Wang Chaohai as soon as I arrived at the door.

He saw Ye Yuwen and smiled gently, "Miss Ye Yuwen, what brings you here? I was just about to call you to see when you'd be free."

Before Ye Yu could speak, a fat man behind him ran up and said with a fawning smile, "Are you Qiao Wei's classmate? Why did you leave? We haven't even started cutting the cake yet."

Turning to Wang Chaohai, she explained, "Today is my little girl's birthday, and I've booked a banquet for her here."

Wang Chaohai nodded and said to Ye Yu, "Why don't you have dinner with your classmates first? I'll wait for you in the conference room next door."

The fat man was even happier to hear this. He had been trying to talk to Wang Chaohai all day, but hadn't had the chance.

Unexpectedly, he knew his daughter's classmate and was even waiting for her in the meeting room. Didn't that give him a chance to make a move?

The next second, Ye Yu shattered his hopes: "I didn't come here to celebrate my birthday, I was just passing by."

Wang Chaohai hurriedly asked, "You haven't eaten yet, have you?"

He winked at his secretary standing next to him, who nodded and went to the side to make a phone call.

Ye Yu nodded: "I was just about to go out to eat with my classmates."

"No need to trouble yourself, I've made a reservation. Let's eat before we go."

Ye Yu had originally planned to contact Wang Chaohai after sending Li Qian home, but since it was convenient for him to invite her to dinner, she agreed.

Wang Chaohai led Ye Yu and Li Qian forward, and continued, "The old man at home often mentions you, saying that thanks to you, he can now eat and sleep well, and even go fishing and hiking with his friends."

"Old Wang has a good constitution, and with timely treatment, he will have fewer illnesses."

Upon hearing Ye Yu's words, Wang Chaohai burst into laughter.
