Lu Xin was startled. She never thought Lady Wei had called her over to talk about this.
Her eyes flickered as she feigned confusion. "Aunt, why are you asking me? I have no idea. So many guests came that day. Perhaps he entered with one of them."
Lady Wei said, "I've already questioned the servants who were greeting guests at the front gate. They were carefully checking invitations that day. All the young masters from prominent families entered the mansion with an invitation. The servants saw no one bring a friend, and they certainly never saw Wang Zeren enter through the front gate."
Lu Xin forced a smile. "But there were so many guests that day. The servants couldn't possibly have checked every single person perfectly. It's possible they were careless."
"This is hardly the first time our Duke Dingguo Mansion has hosted a banquet. Our servants have never made such a blunder. Besides, there was more than one or two of them greeting guests," Lady Wei said coolly.
