At 8 o'clock in the evening, the banquet hall on the second floor of the hotel was brightly lit and crowded with people.

When Xing Nian and Qi Anran walked into the banquet hall, they found that quite a few people had already gathered there.

Despite being in such a social occasion, Xing Nian and Qi Anran were not keen on socializing with others.

They simply took some food and found a quiet corner to sit down.

Xing Nian was eating with gusto when Qi Anran next to her suddenly touched her and said softly, "Sister Xing Nian, look."

Xing Nian raised her head and saw Liang Yichen wearing a gorgeous long dress and walking into the banquet hall with elegant steps.

Her appearance immediately attracted everyone's attention. Her noble temperament and exquisite dress amazed people.

Most of the people attending the banquet were contestants who participated in the competition during the day. Most of them were ordinary people and did not have much banquet experience.

Seeing Liang Yichen dressed so gorgeously, they all widened their eyes and stood there in a daze.

"The daughter of a rich family is truly extraordinary." Someone whispered, "Look at her outfit, it's really not something that we ordinary people can compare to."

"Yeah, the dress she's wearing is probably enough to feed several of us for a lifetime," another person echoed.

"Attending this banquet today has broadened my horizons," someone exclaimed.

Hearing the praises from people around her, Liang Yichen felt better and more proud. She held her head high and walked among the crowd, enjoying everyone's envious gazes.

However, Qi Anran couldn't stand Liang Yichen's behavior.

She curled her lips and said unhappily, "Look at her. She hasn't lost face enough during the day, and yet she can still show off here at night as if nothing happened."

Xing Nian smiled and consoled him, "Okay, why are you angry with this kind of person? If she likes to be flamboyant, then let her be flamboyant. Even if it's embarrassing in the end, it's flamboyant enough for everyone to know."

When Qi Anran heard Xing Nian say this, she no longer paid attention to Liang Yichen's disgusting behavior.

But some people just won’t learn their lesson.

After Liang Yichen lost face in the mall, she walked up to Xing Nian and Qi Anran with firm steps in her high heels.

She looked down at the two of them with a haughty attitude, a disdainful smile on her lips.

"I thought you guys could dress up so beautifully, but it turns out you're just like this." Liang Yichen mocked Xing Nian and Qi Anran with a proud look on his face.

Xing Nian smiled lightly, unmoved, and responded: "Whether we dress well or not, what does it have to do with Miss Liang? Miss Liang should be more careful now and not be so high-profile. After all..."

Before Xing Nian finished her words, Liang Yichen couldn't wait to interrupt her: "What's wrong with me being high-profile? Are you jealous?"

Qi Anran was not someone who could swallow her anger. She immediately stood up, looked directly at Liang Yichen, and said firmly, "Liang Yichen, the Liang Group is now in danger. As the eldest daughter of the Liang Group, you are so high-profile when you go out. Why, are you eager to let others know that your company is about to fail?"

As soon as Qi Anran said this, the people around him were immediately shocked. They whispered and talked about it.

"Is what she said true? The Liang Group is going to fail?"

"If it's true, as the eldest daughter of the Liang Group, instead of trying to help her company through the difficult times, she came here to attend the banquet in a high-profile manner and compete with others for beauty. If I were the head of the Liang family, I would probably faint from anger."

"The prize money for this competition is generous. Could it be that Miss Liang came here just for this prize money?"

"Miss Liang is so short of money now."

People around began to speculate and talk, as if the Liang Group was really in danger.

Liang Yichen's face became more and more ugly. She didn't expect Qi Anran to reveal her family affairs so directly, and she didn't expect that she would become the focus of everyone's discussion.

"Damn Qi Anran, why do you always pick on me?"

Liang Yichen has now completely lost her composure, her face is distorted and her anger is evident in her words.

Qi Anran, who was standing by, couldn't help but laugh out loud when she saw Liang Yichen's look.

It's such a pleasure to make this woman suffer two defeats in one day.

Then, she turned to the crowd around her and deliberately raised her voice: "Speaking of which, when we were at the mall today, didn't Miss Liang fancy a piece of clothing? But she didn't buy it because her bank card balance was insufficient. How come this is not at all like Miss Liang's current high-profile style?"

"Also, Miss Liang, although the dress you are wearing today has some flaws in workmanship, Miss Liang is the daughter of the Liang Group, and the dresses she wears are all hand-made and custom-made, costing at least seven figures. But dresses in shopping malls are probably only six figures, so why can't you afford it? But you can wear a dress worth seven figures just by asking."

When the crowd around heard what Qi Anran said, they began to speculate and discuss. They whispered to each other, and the voices became louder and louder.

"Isn't the Liang Group in trouble? Where does the eldest daughter of the Liang family get so much money?"

"Yeah, she can't afford a six-figure dress in the mall, but she wore a seven-figure dress to the party."

"Isn't it a fake?" Someone even stepped forward to touch Liang Yichen's dress and found that the workmanship was indeed not delicate and it did not feel like a high-end, hand-made custom dress.

At this time, Liang Yichen no longer had the arrogance she had when she first came in. She was full of regret. In order to outshine all the other girls at the banquet, she bought a high-end imitation dress in a short period of time.

She thought that most of the people at the banquet were ordinary people who had never seen high-end dresses, so they would definitely be able to fool them. But she forgot that Qi Anran was the daughter of the Qi Group, so how could she not have seen the real thing.

The people around burst into laughter. They mocked mercilessly, "I never thought that a young lady from a rich family would wear fake goods."

"Who says it's not true? These big families should pay great attention to education. How could they allow their children to go out wearing fake clothes? Isn't this embarrassing?"

Hearing the laughter from people around her, Liang Yichen felt so ashamed that she wished she could find a hole to crawl into.
