Wang Yan was actually quite good-looking and generous, making him a good financial sponsor for women looking to hook up with the rich and powerful. However, within the circle of wealthy families, his reputation wasn't very impressive.
Not only is he a philanderer, he's also a bit greasy. Just look at him wearing all white on this occasion, and you'll know he wants to be a bit unique, but the effect isn't great.
Li Xi and the others were not too far from Wang Yan, but not too close either. The subtle expressions on his face were hard to discern, but the greasy smile on his face was still clear.
And the way he took the wine from the waiter's hand, every move revealed the confidence that he was very handsome and very awesome. Even greasy than the famous greasy king in the entertainment industry that Li Xi had seen before crossing over.
Before meeting Wang Yan, Li Xi had intended to get closer to watch the fun. But now, it was better to watch from a distance to avoid being overwhelmed.
He poked Su Yu and Tang Tang's arms, motioning them to look at Wang Yan, "Then look at that guy. He's incredibly greasy. He's moving closer to Lu Wantang. I think there's something interesting to watch."
Su Yu and Tang Tang both looked over upon hearing this. Su Yu didn't know Wang Yan, but she also thought he looked rather greasy. She tutted in disdain, "Does he think he's so handsome? Wearing all white, anyone who didn't know would think he was attending a funeral. And look at that smile of his, oh my, it's so greasy. Who gave him the confidence that he looks so good with that smile?"
"That man's called Wang Yan." Tang Tang grew up in this circle, so even if they had little interaction, they knew each other. "He's a playboy. He changes women all the time, and none of them stay with him long-term. As for whether those women are willing to follow him, that's unclear." Tang Tang sneered. "He likes pretty girls like Lu Wantang the most. I've seen him show his affection to Lu Wantang at banquets before, but because of the Lu family's power, he doesn't dare or won't do anything. Now that Lu Wantang's status is awkward, he's unsure of the Lu family's attitude, so he might actually be planning something. Maybe there will be something interesting to watch later."
Li Xi gave Tang Tang a strange look. "Sister Tang Tang, you grew up in this circle. You're pretty familiar with Lu Wantang, right? From your tone, it seems like you don't like her very much."
"A delicate little white flower like her is only liked by those male chauvinists and those women with overflowing virgin hearts. I'm very clear-headed and I really can't like her." Tang Tang didn't even look at Li Xi. She picked up the wine glass and took a sip. "Although she didn't actively harm others before, she often said some specious words, and then those who supported her would help her bully others.
My status was there, so she wouldn't think of provoking me, but I had seen her surrounded and used to make things difficult for others. Often she would stand in the middle, about to cry, while her supporters, surrounding her, acted like a protector and condemned the people opposite them.
Haha, what a delicate little white flower, its inside is all black when you cut it open."
At this point, Tang Tang glanced at Su Yu. "Xiaoyu, you must have encountered this before after you came back. You didn't do anything, but as soon as Lu Wantang started crying, someone jumped out to accuse you of something."
"Yes, yes." Su Yu nodded quickly. "Many times. I just can't figure it out. I didn't do anything, didn't say anything, and she always looked at me like she was wronged, as if she was about to cry. Then my family members came over and looked at me angrily, accusing me of being intolerant, cruel, and bullying Lu Wantang. When I first encountered this situation, I wanted to explain that I didn't do anything. But they didn't even let me finish my words, and just hugged Lu Wantang and left. It was really annoying."
Li Xi looked at Su Yu with a complicated expression. Ever since hanging out with Li Xi, Su Yu's personality had changed significantly. She was completely different from the irritable, always-troubled Su Yu in the original story. It was this catchphrase, and the addition of a lot of uncivilized vocabulary. Perhaps it was from constantly hanging out online and hanging out with people online that she'd picked up some random things.
Thinking about it this way, it was me who led Su Yu astray. Ahem, don't think about it, don't guess about it.
They were discussing Wang Yan and Lu Wantang, while Wang Yan had already walked up to Lu Wantang. The room was a bit noisy, and Li Xi couldn't hear what they were saying. She could only see Wang Yan's mouth opening and closing non-stop, a greasy smile on his face, and his right index finger constantly rubbing against the wine glass.
Lu Wantang was still smiling at first, not knowing what Wang Yan had said. Lu Wantang and the other girls around her all looked very unhappy, and some were even on the verge of anger.
Then Li Xi saw Wang Yan raise the glass in his right hand and down the wine in it in one gulp. He then handed the glass in his left hand to Lu Wantang across from him. Lu Wantang clearly didn't want to drink and looked embarrassed. But Wang Yan just looked at her with a smile and said nothing.
Finally, Lu Wantang hesitated for a moment, handed the wine glass in her hand to the ladies next to her, and then took the wine glass from Wang Yan, raised it up and took a sip. Wang Yan seemed satisfied, smiled at Lu Wantang, said something, said hello and left.
On the surface, Wang Yan just went to greet Lu Wantang and said some unpleasant words. But Li Xi saw it! After Lu Wantang's little sister took Lu Wantang's cup, she threw a pill into the cup while no one was paying attention!
Oh my goodness, it turned out to be a gang crime. No wonder Lu Wantang fell for it. How could she not be on guard against someone like Wang Yan? Li Xi saw it clearly. Lu Wantang didn't drink the wine, but just let her lips soak in the wine for a while, pretending to drink it. After Wang Yan left, she asked the waiter next to her for wet wipes and wiped her lips for a long time.
Who could have guessed that the drug wasn't in the wine Wang Yan handed her, but in her own glass, and that it was put there by a sister she thought she had a close relationship with and trusted! The original text didn't mention that this girl was targeted by Shen Zhou and Lu Zifeng. Either that person's family wasn't very good, so there wasn't anything worth writing about, or they simply didn't investigate at all. Anyway, they had already seen Wang Yan about to bully Lu Wantang, so there wasn't much need to investigate.
