Golden Star Ball was hosted by the Su family this year. And in order to show their complete sincerity to other wealthy businessmen who came to the party, they let the guests use their hotel and club as a venue for the event.

Tonight, the entire hotel became the venue of the party. Aside from the grand banquet hall where every guest would first go to mingle with other guests, they allowed access to different locations of the venue, and if any of the guests were too drunk to go home, the suite rooms were open for them to use.

Due to the importance the Su family gave to this year's party, many people were delighted with them.

Zhao Fei also was surprised when she saw this year's gathering event. The event that took place in the past wasn't as grand as this, and the host would only allow access to the guests to the banquet hall and nothing else.

However, tonight, not only was the entire hotel freed and could be used as the party's venue, but the members of the Su family arrived and stood by the entrance as if they were waiting for someone to come.

"Your hubby is too powerful... He can even make the Su family come out and receive him personally." Zhao Fei was only telling the truth and wasn't entirely praising Lisa in front of Jennie.

The Su family was known for being aloof and neutral in the business world. They usually stayed within the premises of their own business ventures and were rarely seen at parties.

Last year's party was also hosted by them, but only two members of the Su family came out for an hour before going back inside and never appeared in front of the guests again.

However, today was truly strange. They opened the doors to the entire hotel and even came to stand by the entrance and greet the guests as if they were very excited about something.

At this time, Jennie, who was walking side by side with her agent, Zhao Fei, raised an eyebrow and didn't take Zhao Fei's words to heart. Since Lisa came from the grand Manoban family, it wasn't weird at all that the Su family would come out to receive him personally.

Moreover, even without the Manoban family behind her husband, Jennie was confident that no one would ignore Lisa's presence.

Somehow, seeing everyone respect and fear him brought a sense of pride and admiration inside her heart.

Jennie continued walking slowly towards the entrance, where every guest would have to hand their invitation card over to a butler.

When it was her turn, the butler's gaze froze, and he raised his head to look at Jennie. When he saw her, the butler spoke a word of excuse to leave his station and walked to where the Su family was standing.

After a few words were exchanged and whispered between them, Su Tian, the Eldest Master of the Su family, came with the butler and stood in front of Jennie.

Zhao Fei was slightly feeling uneasy and tensed. She grabbed Jennie to stand behind her. Did the Su family find out they weren't invited initially and got the invitation card from someone else? Are they going to ask them to leave?

When thinking like this, Zhao Fei was unsure what to do.

However, before the thing that she was afraid of happened, Su Tian flashed a smile in a friendly manner and lowered his voice, "Young Miss kim is here. Good evening."

Jennie's eyes flashed slightly before she returned the smile and asked, "Master Su knows me?"

The two never met, and Jennie was sure of this. So, how did he discover who she was from a mere glance of the butler and with an invitation card that previously belonged to Lisa?

"Young Miss kim might have not met me. But I saw you during Old Patriarch Manoban's birthday party." Master Su handed the invitation card back to her and said with a smile, "This invitation card must have been received by Young Miss kim from him. I want you to keep it and continue using it in the future."

"Thank you." Jennie took the card from him and nonchalantly gave it to Zhao Fei, treating the card as if it was nothing.

Others might have held onto the card very tightly as if their lives depended on it. But Jennie treated it as if it didn't even reach her eyes.

Master Su's eyes lit up when he saw her attitude. It wasn't surprising since the card was not as important as the man who gave it to her.

Before the butler even approached him and told him that the special invitation which was sent to only one person appeared at the party, Su Tian was already staring at Jennie walking on the red carpet towards the entrance.

And when he heard the butler mentioning that another person had used the card, Su Tian immediately assumed it was her. Since the Old Patriarch Manoban's birthday, many prominent and prestigious families were already curious to know and meet Jennie, the woman who captured the eyes of Lisa, the man everyone wanted to rope in through a marriage alliance with their families.

However, for fear that Old Patriarch would be dissatisfied with their intrusive actions, they held back and decided to wait for the mysterious and lucky girl to appear again.

Tonight, she really appeared.

As bright as the stars in the night sky, Jennie sparkled and took everyone's breath away. Her unique beauty was several levels higher than any other person at the party; it was just blinding and heart-pounding. It was almost unbelievable. But the most notable thing about her wasn't her beautiful face. Her eyes looked intelligent and cunning, as if a hidden storm was brewing from within it.

'Young Master Manoban chose perfectly.' Su Tian thought to himself.

He wouldn't underestimate the woman who captured Lisa's heart.

But wait... if she's here, where is he then?

As if reading through his mind, Jennie blinked and smiled, "Master Su doesn't have to feel disappointed as what the Su family is waiting for will surely arrive... Though, a bit later."

Su Tian heard her words and was greatly relieved.
