Chapter 258: Chapter 258
Lin Xi looked at the two men; though they wore suits, upon closer inspection of their expressions and the fabric of their clothing, they seemed more like temporary workers than actual security personnel.
Nowadays, many companies often use inferior materials and hire temporary staff.
For instance, since you’ve already asked me what I’m doing here, why are you asking for an invitation afterward?
This clearly reveals something about the event inside and seems quite unprofessional!
However, Lin Xi wasn’t too concerned but was quite curious about one thing, so he asked, "I just want to know why you’re stopping me but not her?"
Both men showed a hint of mockery as they realized who Lin Xi was referring to. One of them, impatiently, said, "That’s none of your business. I just want to know, do you have an invitation or not?"
"If you don’t have an invitation, then leave here immediately. This isn’t a place you can enter!" The other said expressionlessly.
Meanwhile, Luo Susu, who had already entered, seemed unaware that Lin Xi was being stopped and turned left after entering, disappearing from view.
"No invitation!" Lin Xi slightly frowned but admitted honestly that Luo Susu merely asked him to accompany her without giving him any sort of invitation.
So, Lin Xi had nothing to produce.
"If not, please leave quickly!" The security guard who initially stopped Lin Xi once again extended his hand, gesturing for Lin Xi to leave.
It seemed as though if Lin Xi didn’t comply, they’d forcibly remove him.
"...." Lin Xi felt these two were looking for attention, so he said playfully, "Actually, I’m with that beautiful lady from just now!"
Upon hearing this, the two security guards reacted as if they had heard a joke.
They looked Lin Xi up and down; aside from the Armani suit, there were no other decorations on him, and at most, he was slightly handsome. They presumed Lin Xi was likely a young man with some money but lacking character.
As for Luo Susu, although her outfit looked simple, her accessories were symbols of luxury and elegance. For example, the watch on her wrist was a commemorative model Piaget released in 2008, only three produced globally, and auctioned for as much as eight hundred thousand US Dollars worldwide.
The Cartier on her other wrist was also a rare piece worth tens of thousands, not to mention the necklace around her neck and the shoes on her feet, all extremely expensive.
Of course, the most critical point was that Luo Susu was arguably the most elegant and beautiful woman they had ever seen.
How could such a divine level figure be connected to the ordinary person before them? Hence, they assumed Lin Xi was lying, prompting them to drive him away by saying,

Just then, two young men approached from outside, dressed in formal suits, holding gold-edged invitations while chatting and laughing.
One of them was tall and slim, with a high-bridge nose and glasses, looking very spirited and confident. The other seemed more ordinary by comparison, though not to be underestimated.
As they walked past Lin Xi, they showed a slight curiosity but soon ignored him, showing their invitations briefly to the security and walking inside.
It felt as though to them, Lin Xi and the two security guards were just servants.
However, the security guards’ attitude was extremely respectful; there was no sign of feeling inferior and rather seemed to enjoy it.
Lin Xi despised people with such a servile mentality.
As the two security guards were once again about to expel Lin Xi, Lin Xi actually showed a slight smile, just as one of the two who had just entered exclaimed in surprise and delight,
"Susu, you’re standing here not going in, are you waiting for me?"
