Chapter 17: Shocked Chen Yuzhen—Who Are You to Compete with Mr. Chen?

Not to mention that Chen Fan has severed ties with the Chen family now. Even when Chen Fan was still part of the Chen family, he couldn't afford a restaurant like Wangjiang Pavilion.

Now, seeing Chen Fan in front of Wangjiang Pavilion, Chen Yuzhen felt it was a huge irony.

Chen Fan smiled coldly and said, "I'm not here, is it you?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Yuzhen showed a proud smile and responded, "That's natural. I come to Wangjiang Pavilion at least five times every month. Do you think this is my place?"

"You might have been able to before, but today, you can't enter the Wangjiang Pavilion," Chen Fan said slowly.

After that, Chen Fan sent a text message.

"I can't enter the Wangjiang Pavilion? What international joke are you making? Who do you think you are? I'm laughing so hard, hahahaha..."

Chen Yuzhen seemed to have heard a heavenly joke and laughed uproariously.

"That's right! How dare you say that Sister Chen can't enter Wangjiang Pavilion?"

"Is this kid awake? Is there a place in Jiangzhou that our Sister Yuzhen can't enter?"

Chen Yuzhen's companions couldn't help but mock Chen Fan.

Chen Yuzhen straightened her back and looked at Chen Fan defiantly. "Chen Fan, now I will show you how I enter Wangjiang Pavilion in an upright manner."

"As for a pauper like you, you only deserve to smell the air in front of Wangjiang Pavilion. You'll never be able to get in. You can only eat at roadside stalls that no dog will touch!"

"Let's go!"

After saying that, Chen Yuzhen held her head high and walked toward Wangjiang Pavilion.

Before she could enter, the greeter standing at the door of Wangjiang Pavilion stepped forward.

"I'm sorry, ma'am, but our place is fully booked today, and there are no seats left. If you want to come, please make a reservation in advance," the greeter said apologetically.

Hearing this, Chen Yuzhen's companions were immediately embarrassed.

However, Chen Yuzhen's expression was calm, as if everything was expected.

"Don't worry..."

Chen Yuzhen glanced at her companions and then confidently took out a special card from her bag.

"Look, I am a senior member of Wangjiang Pavilion—Chen Yuzhen. I have privileges such as skipping queues and reservations."

Chen Yuzhen arrogantly handed her senior membership card to the staff.

Premium member?!

Upon hearing those four words, the greeter's expression changed instantly.

"What? You said I can't go in now?!" Chen Yuzhen asked.

"Ah, of course. You are a senior member, so you naturally have this privilege. I was mistaken just now, so please..."

The staff politely bent down and gestured for her to enter.

Seeing this scene, Chen Yuzhen's smile grew even brighter.

Chen Yuzhen turned to Chen Fan with great pride. "Little one, did you see that I'm going into Wangjiang Pavilion to eat, while you'll just be watching from the outside? You will never be able to come in!"

After saying that, Chen Yuzhen took a step forward and intended to enter Wangjiang Pavilion.

Unfortunately, before she could reach the entrance, a man in his thirties, dressed in a suit, stopped her.

"Hey, Manager Zhao, what are you doing?" Chen Yuzhen asked in surprise, recognizing him.

This man in a suit was none other than the manager of Wangjiang Pavilion.

"Ms. Chen, what are you doing?" Manager Zhao asked.

"I?"

"Of course, I'm going in to eat. What else would I do?"

"Manager Zhao, don't block the way here. It's getting late."

After saying that, Chen Yuzhen attempted to go in again, but Manager Zhao stopped her once more.

Then, looking at her questioning eyes, Manager Zhao announced coldly, "Ms. Chen Yuzhen, I'm sorry to inform you that you won't be going in today!"

"What?"

"What did you say?!" Chen Yuzhen was furious.

In front of Chen Fan, Manager Zhao actually refused her entry.

"Why?!"

"Why? There's no reason. You just can't go in. If you insist on an answer, you can understand that there's no place for you today."

Manager Zhao shrugged and replied arrogantly.

At this moment, Chen Fan and Xia Mengmeng also walked over.

"Why? I said you couldn't get in today; do you believe it now?" Chen Fan said lightly.

Instantly, Chen Yuzhen's face turned red with embarrassment!

Chen Fan stepped forward and whispered a few words to Manager Zhao.

After hearing what Chen Fan said, the once-arrogant Manager Zhao immediately wore a flattering smile.

"Please come in, please come in quickly..."

Manager Zhao respectfully invited Chen Fan and Xia Mengmeng inside.

"Chen Yuzhen, we are going in, but you'll just be watching from the outside!" Chen Fan returned what Chen Yuzhen had just said.

Chen Yuzhen was instantly furious!

In that moment, with Chen Yuzhen fuming, Chen Fan and Xia Mengmeng leisurely stepped into Wangjiang Pavilion to eat.

Chen Yuzhen and her companions were still being stopped outside.

"Didn't you say there was no room inside? How come he got a seat when he went in, but I didn't?!" Chen Yuzhen pointed at Manager Zhao and shouted.

Manager Zhao was amused by Chen Yuzhen's words. "Who are you? Are you worthy of comparing yourself to Mr. Chen?!"

"Who are you?" Chen Yuzhen retorted without hesitation.

"Who am I? I am Chen Yuzhen, a senior member of your Wangjiang Pavilion," she replied.

"Oh, right..."

After being reminded by Chen Yuzhen, Manager Zhao recalled her name and then took her VIP card from the receptionist. He pulled out a pair of scissors he had prepared and, in front of Chen Yuzhen and everyone present, cut her VIP card in half!!!

Then Manager Zhao announced loudly, "From now on, you, Chen Yuzhen, are no longer a senior member of our Wangjiang Pavilion."

"And from now on, you are on our Wangjiang Pavilion blacklist and will never be allowed to dine here!!!"

Manager Zhao's words sounded like thunder, echoing in Chen Yuzhen's ears as she stood frozen.

"What's going on?"

"She's been blacklisted by Wangjiang Pavilion, so we have to stay away from her..."

Several guests leaving Wangjiang Pavilion overheard Manager Zhao's statement and began to discuss it.

Being blacklisted by Wangjiang Pavilion would surely become a huge laughingstock in Jiangzhou's upper-class society.

Chen Yuzhen felt completely humiliated.

"Why?!" Chen Yuzhen yelled.

Why did Chen Fan get in but she didn't? Her Wangjiang Pavilion membership card was canceled, and she was blocked from entering!

Chen Yuzhen was infuriated.

Today, she was truly embarrassed.

Especially in front of Chen Fan, whom she had always looked down upon. How could she ever show her face in Jiangzhou again?

After throwing a tantrum for a while, Chen Yuzhen began to calm down.

At that moment, reflecting on what had just happened, she suddenly understood why!!!
