Chu Lan smiled calmly, "It's getting late, young master, you should drive to the scene quickly, I'll be there shortly."

Xu Tian nodded. Since there was a car available, he didn't need to ride in Zhao Jing's car. After getting off the elevator, Xu Tian arrived at the entrance and saw an Audi parked in front of the Xu Group. He couldn't help but smile.

Chu Lan is really considerate. If it weren't for that salesperson looking down on him last time, he would have picked up the car long ago, after going through such a long and complicated process.

After getting into the car, Xu Tian called Zhao Jing. When she learned that he was going to drive himself to the venue, Zhao Jing didn't say much, only that she would wait for him at the entrance.

Before long, Xu Tian arrived at the venue of the social gathering. It must be said that with the participation of the Xu Group, this year's social gathering was indeed much more grand than in previous years. There were special ushers at the entrance. As soon as Xu Tian got out of the car, he handed the keys to the ushers and then asked them to drive the car away.

Zhao Jing had been waiting at the door for a long time. When she saw Xu Tian, ​​she was first surprised, and then her eyes were filled with joy.

"My goodness, clothes really do make the man! You look exceptionally handsome today!"

Zhao Jing couldn't hide her approval as she wrapped her arms around Xu Tian's, almost pressing her body against him.

Xu Tian coughed twice and awkwardly pushed her away, saying, "Stop joking with me, let's go inside."

Zhao Jing pouted and said coquettishly, "No, you have to wait for me for a while. I'm going home to change my clothes, otherwise how can I be worthy of you!"

She usually wears off-the-shoulder dresses to social gatherings, but she was afraid that Xu Tian would look out of place standing next to her, so today she specially wore a casual outfit to complement Xu Tian.

To her utter surprise, Xu Tian was dressed so elegantly today, and the brand...

Zhao Jing instinctively covered her mouth, "Is this a limited edition from Emma?"

"What did you say?"

Xu Tian frowned. Although he had never been exposed to big brands before, he still recognized the names. It was clearly Hermes, so why did she make it sound so strange?

Zhao Jing laughed and said, "I can tell you don't surf the internet much. Didn't that big star's new girlfriend become a sensation recently? She became famous because of these funny remarks."

"You really have impressed me. Do you know how hard it is to buy their limited editions? You didn't buy a high-quality fake, did you?"

As she spoke, Zhao Jing, oblivious to everyone else, brought her entire face close to Xu Tian's chest to examine him.

"Are you going to change your clothes or not? It's about to start," Xu Tian said hurriedly.

Zhao Jing then let Xu Tian go, "Of course I have to change. If I had known you were wearing this today, I wouldn't have needed to dress like this!"

After saying that, Zhao Jing quickly drove home to change her clothes.

Xu Tian smiled helplessly and walked straight into the venue.

"Sir, please show me your invitation."

When Xu Tian reached the door, he was stopped by the security guard.

Xu Tian was taken aback. An invitation? He had never heard anyone mention that an invitation was needed to enter the venue. Chu Lan had never attended such a social gathering before, so she naturally didn't know and hadn't reminded him. But Zhao Jing shouldn't have kept it from him.

Thinking of this, Xu Tian said awkwardly, "I didn't..."

The security guard's expression immediately turned serious. "Excuse me, people without invitations are not allowed to enter the venue. Please leave immediately."

This……

Xu Tian was at a loss. What was wrong with Zhao Jing? Did she also want to see him make a fool of himself? But if that were the case, why would she wear casual clothes to match him today?

"Xu Tian!"

When Zhang Qian arrived, she saw Xu Tian being turned away and called out to him from afar.

Xu Tian forced himself to look at her, only to see that Zhang Qian was dressed in a flamboyant manner today, with her collar almost falling off.

"It's really you!"

Zhang Qian's eyes showed astonishment. Just now, Xu Tian had his back to her, dressed in a suit and standing very straight. If Zhang Qian hadn't known Xu Tian so well over the years, she definitely wouldn't have dared to call out to him.

"you…"

Zhang Qian stared in astonishment at the logo on his suit. "You... how do you own such a high-end suit?"

Xu Tian knew exactly how much money she had. How could she possibly afford such a high-end designer dress, especially a limited edition? Although her dress was also from the same brand, it was far less expensive than Xu Tian's. When Chen Feng accompanied her to look at clothes, he also took a liking to this outfit, but it cost over a million yuan, and they weren't even qualified to buy it. One's annual spending had to be over ten million yuan to be eligible to choose such a limited edition.

Thinking of this, the admiration in Zhang Qian's eyes instantly turned into disdain.

“Xu Tian, ​​even if you want to stand out and prove yourself, you don’t need to copy these big brands. If others notice, you’ll be the one who embarrasses yourself.”

Xu Tian sneered, "People can only spend money within their own understanding, so I don't blame you for not understanding."

Zhang Qian snorted, "Why did you come here?"

"Why did you come here? That's why I came here too," Xu Tian said with a calm smile.

“You…” Zhang Qian glared at Xu Tian, ​​“I know you said a few good words for me in front of Chu Lan, but don’t get too cocky and act like you’ve helped me. This kind of occasion isn’t for you. If you know what’s good for you, leave now.”

Although the two were divorced, everyone who attended this social gathering knew that she was already married and that her husband was a good-for-nothing. Moreover, she planned to announce the divorce after resolving the company crisis. In this way, if Xu Tian lost face, wouldn't that be a way of losing face for herself?

"Why can you come, but I can't?" Xu Tian looked down at her.

Zhang Qian angrily pulled him aside, "You didn't even have an invitation, how dare you come? Everyone here is someone of status and position. Besides, Chu Lan will be here today. Are you trying to cause me trouble?"

"Oh?" Xu Tian scoffed. "I know Chu Lan. Do you think she would have stopped me from going in if Chu Lan were here?"

"The requirement to show an invitation was only added at the last minute because Chu Lan is attending today. If you continue to speak ill of me like this, I won't hesitate to kick you out!" Xu Tian said coldly.

Zhang Qian was startled. "You dare threaten me?"

"This is not a threat," Xu Tian sneered.

Zhang Qian was both angry and helpless. She had to maintain a good relationship with Chu Lan at today's social gathering. Even though Xu Tian dared to be so audacious, she had no choice but to endure it.

Thinking of this, Zhang Qian said with exasperation, "You can go in, but you need to change your clothes right away. It would be so embarrassing if someone recognized you!"

"Xu Tian!"

Zhao Jing's sweet voice came from behind, and she naturally took Xu Tian's arm. Their intimate action instantly angered Zhang Qian.
