Wen Nian regarded Wei Lai with a perplexed expression. "Who said I don't have an invitation? The staff members have already accepted it," she replied.
The staff members comprehended the situation and, in order to preempt any potential anger from Wei Lai towards them later, they decided to retain Wen Nian's invitation.
Wen Nian was well aware of the tricks often employed in upper-class society. Without hesitation, she swiftly turned around and made her way to the designated area where the invitations were placed. She picked up the topmost one, opened it, and held it in her hand. Then, she directed a smile at Wei Lai. "Miss Wei, now that I've presented it to you, are you implying that this is a counterfeit?"
