There was a girl standing at the entrance. Due to the dim lights of the banquet, the girl standing at the entrance was not illuminated well. The light behind her seemed to have given her a divine-like halo.
She was dressed very casually. A simple dark green half-length skirt coupled with a cleverly-made collared blouse. Her hair was unkempt, but it looked oddly feminine.
Especially that face. She wore no makeup but her face was pure and beautiful enough to move one’s heart.
It was comparable to everyone else here who wore copious amounts of makeup, including the star of the party, Jiang Meng.
Jiang Meng saw that a few rich children who had never looked away from her had already set their eyes on Jiang Boyan with great interest.
‘Jiang Boyan?!
‘How dare she!
‘Isn’t she walking into a trap by coming here now?’
Looking at Jiang Meng’s angry and twisted face, Jiang Boyan faintly raised her eyebrows and revealed a smile.
Jiang Boyan was showing off to her!
Jiang Meng’s body stiffened and she was so angry that her breathing became heavier.
Lin Che completely did not realize how she was feeling. He still smiled and said, “Are you surprised?”
He still had the nerve to ask?
Jiang Meng managed to force a smile with much difficulty. She endured her anger and answered Lin Che’s question.
“I thought that Boyan wouldn’t come. I didn’t expect her to appear at the door just as the banquet was about to begin. She still can’t let go of that friendship. Lin Che walked to Jiang Meng’s side and put her arm around her shoulder, “Didn’t you say that you miss her? Quickly go talk to Boyan.”
Lin Che exerted a little force and wanted to bring her to Jiang Boyan’s side.
“Ah Che.”
Jiang Meng stood rooted to the spot and did not move. She looked at Lin Che seriously, “Uncle just sent me a message. He wants me to tell you that the project in your hands is still waiting for you to make a decision. Don’t waste time on these small matters.”
Just as she said this, Lin Che’s expression turned ugly.
He was the second son in the family. His elder brother and younger brother were both more outstanding than him. His father had never raised him as an heir.
Now, he was still picking on his work.
“Alright, Ah Che. The opening dance is over. You should go to work. I’ve reserved a room for you to work in. After you finish your work, come back and accompany me, okay?”
“You’re my girlfriend. How can I leave you on such an important day? Moreover, it was not easy to get Boyan here…” Lin Che was a little dejected. He did not understand Jiang Meng’s actions again.
“I haven’t even entered your house yet and you’re already delaying your work because of me. What do you think your father will think of me?”
Jiang Meng lowered her head and acted as if Lin Che had broken her heart.
“Mengmeng…”
“Alright. Be good and go to work. I’ll definitely make Boyan stay.” Jiang Meng shook Lin Che’s hand. Her voice was filled with jealousy and dissatisfaction.
Lin Che sighed. In the end, he agreed to Jiang Meng’s unreasonable request. “Don’t be jealous. There’s nothing between Boyan and me. I’ll go back to work immediately. I’ll be back to accompany you soon.”
Jiang Meng instantly smiled. “Yes, yes. Go back to work quickly. I’ll take good care of Boyan.”
“Yes. Remember to ask her why she hid her identity from us that day. Also, where has she been all these years?”
As Lin Che spoke, he looked at Jiang Boyan worriedly. Then, he sighed and went to deal with his work.
Jiang Meng called over a staff member and said in a low voice, “Go and see that Young Master Lin is doing his job properly. Don’t let him leave that room and definitely don’t let him come back.”
She wanted to have a proper conversation with this surprise that Lin Che had given her.
“Understood.”
The staff went to Lin Che’s office obediently.
Seeing Lin Che’s back completely disappear from her sight, Jiang Meng’s expression immediately changed. The way she looked at Jiang Boyan was as if she could eat her.
Jiang Boyan was currently surrounded by a few rich kids who wanted her contact information. These rich kids were clearly Jiang Meng’s lackeys in the past!
Jiang Boyan, this vixen! Three years had passed. She really had not changed at all!
Jiang Meng slowly moved to her best friend Liu Xin’s side and said, “Xinxin, did you notice that woman at the entrance?”
Liu Xin had already been staring at Jiang Boyan for a long time, the jealousy in her eyes was almost overflowing. “Yes, yes. It was Lin Che who picked her up personally. Do you know that woman? Isn’t she being rude to you? What was she wearing? Was she wearing a coat over her skirt? How did the staff let her in?”
‘She wanted us to feel jealous.’
Jiang Meng pretended to be aggrieved. “I heard that she’s the woman that Lin Che likes. Don’t you like Lin Che? I’ve already helped you this far. You should know what to do, right? She doesn’t have an invitation to the dinner party.”
“You’re saying…” Liu Xin’s expression instantly turned vicious, but she restrained herself immediately. “But today is your dinner party. It’s not good to cause a ruckus, right?”
“It’s only a birthday. There’s one every year. It’s boring to do the same thing again and again. I don’t mind seeing something different this year.”
Jiang Meng had a smile on her face, but the malice in her heart seemed to grow immensely.
“Okay!”
After knowing that she would not make the host of the banquet unhappy, Liu Xin and the other women rushed up to Jiang Boyan in high spirits.
Jiang Boyan was tasting the desserts in front of the long table, but a few filthy-looking rich second-generation heirs kept buzzing.
“Young lady, why haven’t you attended a banquet like this before? Are you the daughter of a new family?”
“Young lady, can you give me your contact information? I’m the second young master of the Yang family, Yang Hao.”
Jiang Boyan remained silent.
Jiang Boyan did not want to bother with these boring fellows at all. She just picked up the next piece of cake.
“Who are you? How come we’ve never seen you in this circle before?”
A sharp female voice sounded.
Those few nosy second-generation rich folk were paying attention to her now.
Dressed in a long white gown, Liu Xin walked towards Jiang Boyan. Her face was full of disdain.
Jiang Boyan picked up a dessert and took a small bite. She did not even look at her.
In the blink of an eye, Liu Xin arrived beside Jiang Boyan. She raised her chin as if someone owed her eight million yuan. “I know everyone that Jiang Meng knows. Why haven’t I seen your face before? Show me your invitation.”
Hearing this, Jiang Boyan put down the dessert and her eyes were cold. “Miss Jiang’s fiancé, Lin Che, brought me in.”
“So you don’t have an invitation?” Liu Xin looked at Jiang Boyan and disgust spread across her features. “Did you sneak in? Haven’t you seen the buffet at a big hotel? Did you want to broaden your horizons? Also, what nonsense are you talking about? Lin Che and Mengmeng are just very good friends. You don’t even understand the relationship between the host of the banquet and her, and yet, you sneaked in. Do you really think that the food is so delicious?”
“Sneaked in?”
The expressions of those rich second-generation heirs instantly turned suspicious. They were no longer as attentive to Jiang Boyan as before.
They originally thought that Jiang Boyan’s heavenly appearance should mean that she was a rich lady with a similar status to theirs. If she was a swindler who had sneaked in, her beauty would mean nothing. She was not worthy of their illustrious status.
Jiang Boyan saw their expressions change in an instant. Her heart did not waver. She even took a small piece of cake and slowly tasted it.
“You’re really shameless. Are you addicted to swindling food and drinks?”
Jiang Boyan finished the delicious cake she was holding and put down the plate. Only then did she look up at Liu Xin. “What evidence do you have to say that I’m a swindler?”
“You’re so thick-skinned.”Liu Xin grabbed Jiang Boyan’s wrist. “Let’s go and confront the host of the banquet. Then, we’ll find out the truth, right?”
“Let go.”
The coldness in her voice stunned Liu Xin. She subconsciously let go of Jiang Boyan’s hand.
With both hands in her pockets, Jiang Boyan strolled to Jiang Meng calmly.
The second-generation rich kids who had surrounded Jiang Boyan earlier also followed her. Many people who did not know what was going on could not help but surround Jiang Boyan when they saw such a huge crowd gather behind her. They wanted to see what would happen.
Almost everyone in the venue had their eyes focused on the center of the dance floor.

Jiang Meng was originally discussing interesting things in school with her friend while paying attention to Jiang Boyan’s movements.
“Mengmeng!”
Jiang Meng turned around and met everyone’s inquisitive gazes.
“Oh? What happened?”
Liu Xin pushed Jiang Boyan to Jiang Meng. She was pushed to the center of the dance floor. Liu Xin screamed in a sharp voice, “Mengmeng, she said that she knows you and Lin Che.. Is that true?”
