Chapter 257: Rejected

The next day.

Xue Liang’s art exhibition began at three in the afternoon.

Qiao Xi had been looking at his paintings since she was young and had long lost interest in them.

However, Song Shiyu was Xue Liang’s die-hard fan and the tickets for the art exhibition were hard to come by. Many wealthy families could not get them, so how could he, an assistant, get one?

Moreover, Gu Yao had been clamoring to go. Hence, Qiao Xi asked Xue Liang for two tickets.

At two in the afternoon, Song Shiyu and Gu Yao were wearing suits and waiting at the entrance of the art exhibition.

At half-past two, everyone gradually came into the venue.

Gu Yao looked at the people around him. They were all from the noble families of Li City. Even the people from the bureaucracy were here.

He could not help but sigh. “My idol is really too handsome! Xue Liang is the best!”

No matter how powerful and noble a person was, they had to queue up obediently just to see his art exhibition. This was the greatest affirmation.

This was a relatively high-end venue. It was quiet and orderly, but the silence was broken by a harsh female voice.

“Look clearly, these are our tickets! What right do you have to stop us from entering?”

Gu Yao and Song Shiyu looked in the direction of the voice.

A middle-aged woman dressed in exquisite clothes and silver jewelry had a vicious look in her eyes. Her face was red. “Let me in! Why aren’t you giving me a reasonable explanation? I already spent money to buy a ticket!”

Everyone’s gazes landed on her, making her feel extremely awkward.

Gu Yao muttered, “Madam Yao? Why isn’t she allowed in? Could she have offended Xue Liang?”

At this moment, Madam Yao’s expression was ugly. She wished for nothing more than to find a hole to bury herself in it.

The Yao family only managed to get two tickets. She was accompanying her daughter to attend the art exhibition.

However, when they reached the door, they were stopped.

Madam Yao had never been so humiliated. “Give me a reason!”

The staff member smiled helplessly. “I’m sorry, but this is an instruction from the higher-ups. We can’t let you in.”

Madam Yao wanted to curse but was stopped by Yao Mengqing.

Yao Mengqing said gently, “The tickets were bought through the legal channels. There shouldn’t be anything wrong with them. Please help me investigate what went wrong.”

Yao Mengqing had a good reputation in the circle, so someone quickly spoke up for her. “That’s right. How could the eldest daughter and madam of the Yao family buy fake tickets? You must be mistaken.”

The staff member was helpless. He could only turn around and make a call. After a while, he walked out and said with a helpless voice.

“I’m sorry, Miss Yao and Madam Yao. I’ve already asked Mr. Xue’s assistant. Mr. Xue was the one who canceled the Yao family’s tickets. As for the reason, I suggest you ask Mr. Xue directly.”

Madam Yao was so angry that she nearly vomited blood!

Her daughter had finally gotten two tickets and she even posted them on her WeChat Moments to show off. Unexpectedly, she could not enter today.
