Watching Lin Haocheng’s smug look, Li Chen had the urge to grab his detestable face and rub it against the ground viciously.
After a brief impulse, he cald down.
He had been to the Chen Family several tis for dical treatnt, and apart from being looked down upon the first ti because of his young age, the Chen family had been very enthusiastic on subsequent visits.
Today was their turf, moreover, a birthday banquet, and making a scene would ultimately be sowhat improper.
However, he wasn’t the kind of person who could stay indifferent while others mocked him relentlessly.
"Lin Haocheng, how about we make a bet?"
"A bet? What bet?"
"It’s a bet that I can enter through these doors today, and you, you won’t be able to."
"Haha, Li Chen, have you lost your mind? My Lin family has an invitation, and you, you’re just a nobody, a broke-ass nobody. What can you possibly bet with ? Fine! I’ll take your bet, two conditions, no less! If you can’t do it, get on your knees, bow three tis, and crawl through my crotch," Lin Haocheng sneered.
Lin Haocheng snickered.
In his eyes, Li Chen was just overheating from irritation; even if Li Chen could enter, he had an invitation and would enter just the sa.
No matter what, he was in an unbeatable position.
"Fine! But if I manage it, you’ll bark like a dog three tis right here, and I’ll consider your earlier words nothing but a dog’s bark," Li Chen retorted.
"You..."
Lin Haocheng clenched his fists in anger.
Li Chen had no desire to waste any more words on him and was about to directly call Chen Wanqiu over. He wasn’t even talking about the invite; he still expected Li Chen to attend their banquet. Li Chen planned to teach him a harsh lesson later.
"Li Chen, is that really you! Why are you standing here, why not go in?"
Before he could make the call, Chen Weiwei opened the car door and walked over quickly, her peerless beauty radiant with a beaming smile.
Lin Haocheng was instantly stunned.
He had been with many won but had never seen such a beautiful one.
Graceful and stunning.
So much so that his breathing beca rapid, his eyes filled with avaricious lust.
He couldn’t take his eyes off of her from the mont he saw her.
"Li Chen, your friend?" Sensing the greedy gaze, Chen Weiwei furrowed her brows.
"No," Li Chen replied, shaking his head candidly.
"Let’s go, let’s go inside!"
When she heard they weren’t friends, the disgust in Chen Weiwei’s eyes intensified. She took Li Chen’s hand, ready to head inside.
It was only then that Lin Haocheng ca back to his senses, his tone fiery with desire: "Beautiful lady, have you been deceived by him? This man here is not so rich heir, but a re nobody, a loser without a penny to his na. He doesn’t deserve your beauty."
He believed Li Chen must have been tricking her; otherwise, how could there be such a top-notch beauty by his side?
"So what? How’s that any of your business?" Chen Weiwei retorted grumpily.
"Beauty, I’m just afraid you’re being conned. With your looks, you could marry into wealth; why settle for a loser like him?" Lin Haocheng arrogantly proclaid.
"Loser? You’re the loser! I won’t let you talk about Li Chen like that," Chen Weiwei fired back rcilessly.
Lin Haocheng’s expression darkened as he warned, "Beauty, I’m looking out for you. If you keep being stubborn, you’ll surely regret being swindled of your money and charm."
"Swindle money and charm?"
Chen Weiwei laughed, glancing at Li Chen, "That’s better than being a sanctimonious jerk like you, just the sight of you makes sick!"
Li Chen himself was taken aback by the repeated retorts.
The words didn’t seem quite right. Were they truly uncalculated or...
"Beauty, do you understand? This guy is a swindler; you’re being fooled by him," Lin Haocheng insisted, becoming visibly agitated.
He couldn’t bear it—this stunning beauty was getting so cozy with Li Chen.
"Hey! Are you annoying or what? I can be with whoever I choose, it’s none of your damn business!" Chen Weiwei was clearly out of patience.
"You—" Lin Haocheng was so angry he was almost spitting blood.
He couldn’t believe that this beautiful woman could be so obstinate.
A penniless loser like that had such allure?
"Li Chen, let’s go! What kind of people are these?"
Chen Weiwei pouted, seemingly still not satisfied, and turned to instruct the doorkeeper, "At my grandpa’s birthday banquet, make sure you don’t let just anyone in, especially people like him..."
"Yes, Miss!"

The ones standing here weren’t Phoenix Cry Pavilion’s greeters; they were the Chen Family’s servants.
They naturally heeded the words of Miss Chen Weiwei of the Chen Family.
Lin Haocheng was dumbfounded.
Just as he tried to enter, he was stopped, and even after showing his invitation, he was still barred from entry.
"Why are you looking at like that?"
As they entered, Chen Weiwei caught Li Chen’s strange gaze, bit her lip, and instinctively looked down, "I... was I too harsh just now? I just couldn’t stand him talking about you like that."
"Does that an Weiwei was defending ?" Li Chen asked, his smile teasing as he admired her beautiful face.
"You saved my father’s life; of course, I couldn’t let him speak of you like that," Chen Weiwei admitted, nervously fiddling with her fingers, losing the commanding aura from before and resembling a shy schoolgirl.
"Is that the only reason?"
Li Chen queried, his smile broadening.
Before, he wasn’t sure, but now, seeing her like this, he was more convinced of his suspicion.
