Terra Su reached into his chest and pulled out something.
No way, did he really have an invitation?
The few students were taken aback, staring at the invitation Terra Su held.
But the next moment, they burst into laughter, “Hahaha, what kind of invitation is that?”
“Hick, if you don’t have an invitation, don’t pretend. Look at your invitation, does it look like ours? What kind of invitation is that?”
They all looked mockingly at the black and gold invitation in Terra Su’s hand. Wasn’t the invitation for the yacht banquet supposed to be white? What was this black invitation?
At this moment, a nearby guard noticed the invitation in Terra Su’s hand and exclaimed, cautiously asking, “Young Master, may I take a look at that invitation?”
Hmm?
The students were puzzled, watching as the guard, unusually careful, took the black and gold invitation from Terra Su.
After examining it for a while, the guard gasped and immediately returned the invitation to Terra Su, respectfully saying, “Young Master, please board the ship!”
“What?”
The students couldn’t believe it and questioned loudly, “Why is he allowed to board?”
“The invitation he showed isn’t even for the yacht banquet, how can he be allowed to board?”
The guard respectfully glanced at Terra Su and explained, “This gentleman’s invitation is a VIP invitation! Naturally, it’s different from ordinary invitations.”
What?
A VIP invitation?
The students couldn’t believe their ears. Could Terra Su really have a VIP invitation?
“Impossible!”
“This guy is just a poor Martial Practitioner, how could he have a VIP invitation?”
“Impossible, the invitation must be fake!”
The students shouted in disbelief.
“The invitation bears the Crown Prince’s exclusive seal; it can’t be fake,” the guard shook his head and said.
Lu Can’s demeanor shifted as he said, “If it’s not fake, then it must be a stolen invitation. Think about it, he’s just a poor kid, how could he have access to a VIP invitation?”
“Stolen?”
The guard hesitated, worried that if Terra Su had indeed stolen the invitation, he would be held responsible for letting him into the venue.
“Lu, can you be sure?”
The guard asked, knowing that as a mere guard, even though he was under the Crown Prince, he couldn’t bear such a heavy responsibility.
“I can guarantee, this VIP invitation is definitely not his,” Lu Can said with absolute certainty.
“Young Master, I’m sorry, if this invitation isn’t yours, you can’t board the ship,” the guard turned to Terra Su and said.
At that moment, an old man emerged from the yacht’s entrance, looking around as if searching for something.
“Patriarch Lu!”
The guard, sharp-eyed, immediately recognized the old man and hurriedly saluted.
“Grandfather!”
Lu Can was also taken aback, quickly moving to greet the old man.
This old man was none other than his own grandfather, Lu Xueguang, one of the Crown Prince’s most trusted aides.
Lu Xueguang was also the Patriarch of the Lu Family, someone Lu Can deeply respected. To him, his grandfather was like a towering mountain, supporting the vast Lu Family.
Of course, for the yacht banquet hosted by the Crown Prince, Lu Xueguang, as the Crown Prince’s confidant, would have arrived early.
Seeing Lu Xueguang emerge from the venue, Lu Can quickly approached and asked, “Grandfather, why did you come out of the venue?”
“The Crown Prince asked me to come out to welcome a distinguished guest,” Lu Xueguang said, his eyes scanning the surroundings, clearly searching for the guest mentioned by the Crown Prince.
“A distinguished guest?”
Lu Can was also puzzled, his curiosity piqued.
For someone the Crown Prince referred to as a distinguished guest, and even sent Lu Xueguang to personally welcome, how high must their status be?
“Grandfather, what kind of person did the Crown Prince say this distinguished guest is?” Lu Can asked, unable to contain his curiosity.
Lu Xueguang shook his head, “I don’t know. The Crown Prince only said it’s a young man, about fifteen or sixteen years old, named…”
Suddenly, Lu Xueguang’s words stopped abruptly as his gaze landed on Terra Su, who stood nearby holding the VIP invitation.
A young man, fifteen or sixteen years old, with the Crown Prince’s VIP invitation…
“Grandfather, no, it can’t be him!”
Lu Can saw the change in Lu Xueguang’s expression and quickly said, “This guy is from our Anyang Academy. I know him well. He’s just a poor kid, he can’t be the Crown Prince’s distinguished guest.”
Ridiculous, how could Terra Su be the Crown Prince’s distinguished guest? That was too absurd.
However, Lu Xueguang gestured for Lu Can to be quiet.
Then, Lu Xueguang quickly approached Terra Su, scrutinizing him for a moment, his expression changing slightly, and cautiously asked, “May I ask, are you Terra Su?”
“That’s me.”
Terra Su nodded, looking at Lu Xueguang, knowing that the Crown Prince must have sent this old man to personally welcome him. It seemed the Crown Prince was quite considerate.
Instantly, Lu Xueguang’s expression changed completely. He immediately bowed respectfully to Terra Su and said, “Young Master Su, the Crown Prince sent me to personally welcome you. Please follow me onto the ship.”
What?
Lu Can almost thought he misheard.
The person the Crown Prince sent Lu Xueguang to welcome was Terra Su?
How was that possible?
Lu Can was completely bewildered, especially seeing his most respected grandfather bowing to Terra Su and addressing him as Young Master Su…
“Grandfather, you must be mistaken, Terra Su is just…”
Slap!
Lu Xueguang suddenly raised his hand and slapped Lu Can, making him spin in place.
“Silence, Young Master Su is not someone you can speak of lightly!” Lu Xueguang warned Lu Can with a look, telling him not to speak carelessly and risk displeasing the Crown Prince.
Then, Lu Xueguang smiled warmly at Terra Su and said, “Young Master Su, please.”
Terra Su nodded and walked into the yacht banquet venue with Lu Xueguang.
Just before entering the door, Terra Su turned his head to look at Lu Can and the students, asking, “Does it hurt to be slapped in the face?”
Lu Can and the students all had ashen faces. Terra Su’s words were like a stinging slap across their faces.
They had mocked Terra Su for not having an invitation, but he had produced a VIP invitation!
They had claimed Terra Su’s invitation was stolen, but Lu Can’s grandfather had personally come out to welcome Terra Su and addressed him as Young Master Su!
Does it hurt to be slapped in the face? Is it loud?
“Strange, what did that guy do to earn the Crown Prince’s favor?” Lu Can muttered, his face dark, full of doubt as he followed Terra Su into the venue.
