Captured Hearts: The Substitute Bride’s Gambit

Chapter 35: Chapter 35: Mrs. Qi Wants to Be a Security Guard? Chapter 35: Chapter 35: Mrs. Qi Wants to Be a Security Guard? The girl was overjoyed, her hands trembling as she received the invitation, “Thank you, sister! I’m so grateful, you’re not only beautiful but kind-hearted too!”

Lin Chuyi laughed, “You heard everything just now, didn’t you? Aren’t you afraid that this invitation might be a fake?”

The girl shook her head: “Each invitation has a unique code that cannot be forged, and besides, I’ve felt a real one before, it’s just like yours.”

After she spoke, she gave Lin Chuyi a radiant smile, “Thank you so much for giving me this, sister. My name is Yunzhu! I’m going in first!”

With that, she handed the invitation to the security guard.

After examining it for a moment, the guard respectfully said, “There is no problem with the invitation, miss, please go ahead.”

Wen Nianyou watched Yunzhu enter the banquet hall, feeling both angry and regretful. Lin Chuyi’s invitation was actually real, how could this be possible?!

If only she had known, she would have taken that invitation for herself!

She had sought desperately online for such a long time, and at the door, she had wasted so much breath with the security guard, all to no avail. Now that the invitation had been literally handed to her, it was snatched away by someone else!

That invitation was supposed to be hers! It was all the fault of that damned Yunzhu who had no decency at all. Doesn’t she understand the concept of first come, first served?

Wen Nianyou was so furious she nearly crushed her teeth, while Hen Peizhu was so shocked she bit her tongue!

“Impossible! How could your invitation be real? Where did you get a real one? You couldn’t possibly have three genuine invitations, I need to check that!”

Holding that thought, Hen Peizhu tried to snatch the invitation from Lin Chuyi’s hand.

Lin Chuyi had previously had her pass snatched by her, and was now experienced in handling such situations. She pushed her away directly, “Madam Qi, what are you doing? Don’t you have enough invitations of your own, or are you resorting to robbing me outright now? You’re supposed to be a prestigious director’s wife; doesn’t it devalue you to snatch something from a janitor like me?”

Qi Yunfan didn’t like her speaking about his mother that way, “Chuyi, my mom just wants to check your invitation, can’t you choose your words better? We have invitations; why would we need to take yours?”

Lin Chuyi looked at him with a cold gaze, Qi Yunfan probably didn’t know that Qi Hospital even got those two invitations because she asked Su Shan to provide them.

The medical conference hosted by Jungle Pharmaceutical happened only once a year, inviting the world’s top doctors and pharmacologists. These experts would share their most advanced medical techniques and cutting-edge pharmaceuticals, something that everyone in the medical field yearned to hear.

At the conference, Jungle would also help hospitals and pharmaceutical companies establish partnerships, giving hospitals access to the latest special medications and pharmaceutical companies access to various data feedback from top hospitals.

Qi Hospital hadn’t qualified for the conference in previous years. Having known Qi Yunfan for three years, she had heard him talk about it for just as long—he desperately wanted to attend the conference to elevate their hospital’s status. Hospitals that had never been part of the conference were always viewed as somewhat inferior by their peers.

This year, when the invitations were being distributed, she had just accepted Qi Yunfan’s courtship. So, thinking to help her boyfriend, she had Su Shan allocate two invitations to Qi Hospital.

And what had she gotten in return?

Lin Chuyi spoke with a cool tone: “Qi Yunfan, there’s no need for your mother to check my invitation unless she wants to take over the security guard’s job and stand here as an inspector. Oh, could it be she actually wants to become a security guard?”

“You!”

Qi Yunfan grew somewhat angry, “Lin Chuyi, don’t go too far!”

“Isn’t it you who are crossing the line?”
