Chapter 164: Chapter 164: Deceived

The Guard’s face was expressionless, "Such a mistake is not possible, your invitation is definitely a fake!"

At that moment, Madam Han was completely dumbfounded.

A hundred million!

A hundred million had just gone down the drain like that!

The Han Family members looked utterly embarrassed, like mourners at a wake.

The surrounding crowd, however, burst into laughter.

"It’s really quite bizarre, to think they could sneak in with a fake invitation, what audacity!"

"Making a grand entrance with gongs and drums, as if she’s the Empress Dowager herself, only to turn out to be a fake, how utterly disgraceful!"

"I’ve never heard of the Han Family from Huai City before this, but now we’ve all seen what kind of stuff they’re made of! Hahaha..."

Listening to the ridicule from the people around, the Han Family members were so ashamed they wished the ground would swallow them up.

Madam Han was so humiliated her old face turned red, and she wished she could crawl into a crack in the earth.

She had hoped to make a grand display and establish a great reputation with this opportunity, yet at her age, she had become a laughingstock in everyone’s eyes, completely tarnishing her late life reputation!

"Alright, since you don’t have invitations, stop blocking the way here, move aside quickly!" the Guard urged impatiently.

The Han Family, like a defeated army, began to leave with their heads hung low.

Jingting, however, seemed to think of something and suddenly rushed up to the Guard.

"Excuse me, I have another invitation here, could you please help me verify its authenticity?"

Jingting said as she handed over a pile of torn-up paper fragments to the Guard.

It was the invitation that Madam Han had shredded earlier!

The onlookers burst into even louder laughter upon seeing this scene.

The Han Family members felt disgraced as well. Did Jingting think they hadn’t lost enough face today? Now she was asking someone to verify a pile of torn paper, it was the ultimate humiliation!

Han Chengye scoffed, "Jingting, could you please stop making a fool of yourself? Even the invitation from Young Master Du turned out to be fake, do you still expect Chen Xuan, that loser, to produce a real invitation?"

The Guard didn’t want to waste time with Jingting either, but when he inadvertently caught sight of the word "First-Class Seat" written on the fragments, he paused in surprise.

First-Class Seat!

That was a seat only eligible for the high-ranking officials of the military department!

The Guard did not dare to delay any longer, quickly checking for the security mark, and his face immediately changed color.

The next moment, the Guard stood up straight and snapped a salute towards Jingting.

"Greetings, Officer!"

Suddenly, the noisy scene fell silent.

Everyone’s jaws nearly hit the floor.

Over there, Madam Han and the other members of the Han Family were almost ready to get into the car, but hearing this, they also froze on the spot, unable to believe their ears.

"You... you mean to say, this invitation is real?" Jingting asked incredulously.

The Guard replied respectfully, "Of course it’s real. Moreover, this invitation is for the highest-ranking First-Class Seat at the ceremony!"

The crowd was astounded.

The Han Family members looked at each other in disbelief.

So, there really was a First-Class Seat!

Jingting smiled bitterly; it turned out Chen Xuan had not lied to her after all!

Madam Han’s eyes lit up, she pushed through the crowd and ran back to the Guard, asking eagerly, "Does this mean I can enter now?"

The Han Family members were also beaming with joy.

Top seating, was that not even more glorious than the previous first-class seats?

However, they heard the Guard speak in a stern voice, "If this invitation were intact, naturally there would be no problem. But now, this invitation is torn up like this, it is obviously unacceptable!"

The Han Family members were completely dumbfounded.

Such a great opportunity had slipped through their fingers just like that!

Madam Han completely collapsed, she had had the chance to enjoy the grand event alongside those military department bigwigs, to converse and laugh merrily, but now such a wonderful opportunity had been ruined by her own hands!

"Ah!" Madam Han beat her chest and stamped her feet in a furious roar, "Heaven does not bless our Han Family! My one billion! Du Hao! The Du Family of Nanhu! You bastards have brought such misery to our Han Family! I will not let this go! Not at all!"

The immense stimulus made Madam Han completely lose her rationality as she shouted like a madwoman.

But at that moment, an angry shout suddenly erupted, "Where did this madwoman come from, daring to disrespect my Du Family in the street, do you no longer wish to live!"

Han Chengye refused to show weakness, "Who the hell are you to be so arrogant!"

"Nanhu, Du Mingshen!" Du Mingshen looked at Han Chengye and coldly shouted.

"Du Mingshen? Nan... Nanhu Du Family Head, Du Mingshen..." Han Chengye was so frightened that his legs went weak.

Madam Han also clamped her mouth shut as if someone had grabbed her throat.

The Du Family of Nanhu was a top-tier family in Beijiang, able to crush the Han Family with ease with just a flick of a finger. They wouldn’t dare challenge the Du Family of Nanhu even if they had ten times the courage.

Yet Du Mingshen had an icy look on his face as he interrogated, "Who are you people, and why are you openly insulting our Du Family of Nanhu at the entrance of this Warrior King ceremony!"

"I... I... I..." Madam Han was so terrified that her tongue tied in knots, and she was unable to speak clearly.

In the end, it was Han Jingting who spoke up, relaying the affair of Du Hao selling them a fake invitation.

After hearing this, Du Mingshen let out a cold laugh, "What Han Family of Huai City, it turns out you’re just a bunch of fools! Let me tell you, our Du Family of Nanhu doesn’t have a person named Du Hao at all; you’ve been utterly duped!"

"What!" Upon hearing this, the Han Family members were utterly dumbstruck.

They never even dreamed that the identity of Du Hao was fake.

The crowd turned to look at Han Yaru, "Han Yaru, what in the world is going on?"

It was Han Yaru who had brought Du Hao to them. If it weren’t for Du Hao’s identity of the Du Family of Nanhu, how could they have been so trusting of his words and directly given him a billion!

At the moment, Han Yaru was also completely stunned, "I... I didn’t know, he was... introduced by a friend. I didn’t know he was a fake, wuwuwu..."

Han Yaru was so anxious that she burst into tears.

No wonder, to please this Young Master Du over the last few days, she had done everything she could, even giving herself to him.

She had thought she would be able to climb to a higher branch, but to her dismay, she had lost everything and even her troops had been decimated!

"You... you... you..."

Madam Han pointed at Han Yaru, shaking with rage.

The next moment, everything went dark before Madam Han’s eyes, and she fainted on the spot.

"Grandma!"

"Grandma, wake up!"

"Call an ambulance quickly!"

For a time, the Han Family members were thrown into chaos.

A little while later, the ambulance arrived, and after the Han Family members put Madam Han inside, they hurriedly drove after it.

The surrounding crowd were shaking their heads in dismay.

Spending a billion to buy a fake invitation, and the Family Head fainting from anger, this so-called Han Family, had truly brought great shame upon themselves!
