After the kettle fell to the ground, he quickly bent down, pretending to pick it up, but when no one was paying attention, he secretly sprinkled something into the kettle.
After doing all this smoothly, he curled his lips imperceptibly, took the kettle in his hand as if nothing had happened, then walked to the front and called the girl standing there.
"Oh, girl, I'm sorry. I wasn't paying attention and knocked your kettle over." The man scratched his head embarrassedly and handed the kettle over.
The girl was originally chatting with her good friend who was watching a movie with her. After hearing what the man said, she turned her head to look at her, took her kettle, and waved her hand, saying, "It's okay, it's okay."
The man didn't say much and just turned and left.
As soon as he turned around, a smile appeared on his face.
Meng Wanyue saw everything in front of her clearly, her face slightly gloomy.
She knew this man, Xu Xiang, who was an accomplice of Liu Zhen. They had worked together in the past and had kidnapped many girls.
Xu Xiang noticed Meng Wanyue's gaze, frowned, looked up, and was about to threaten her, but after recognizing who it was, the expression on his face immediately eased a lot.
Meng Wanyue stared at him blankly for a long while.
Xu Xiang was a little confused. He walked up to her and asked, "What's wrong? Do you need my help?"
He and Liu Zhen have a pretty good relationship.
Meng Wanyue listened to his words, thought for a long time with calm eyes, then looked at his pocket and pointed, "Do you have any extra medicine? Give me some."
Xu Xiang nodded, without asking any more questions, and took out a small brown paper medicine bag from his pocket and handed it to Meng Wanyue. "Here, one bag is just the right amount. It's very powerful, so you can use it without worry."
When Meng Wanyue heard the second half of the sentence, her heart inexplicably tightened and she suddenly felt a little scared.
But thinking of Jiang Xiachu's appearance, she gritted her teeth, made a secret decision in her heart, stretched out her hand, and nervously took the small packet of medicine.
Jiang Xiachu was the one who provoked this first, don't blame her.
By now Jiang Xiachu and Jiang Lin had already checked the tickets. There weren't a lot of people here today, so they sat directly in the middle of the first few rows.
Meng Wanyue crouched down and walked to the position behind Jiang Xiachu and Jiang Lin, staring at them intently, watching them talking and laughing in low voices, and she felt like she was biting her teeth.
Pei Yunchen and Lu Huaiyan followed closely behind and walked in from the back door, sitting in the corner of the back row.
Just now, the two of them had been following Meng Wanyue, wanting to see what she was going to do, and happened to see her asking Xu Xiang for something.
It was wrapped in brown paper and it looked like it was not a good thing.
Just now, Xu Xiang secretly put drugs in another girl's water bottle. There must be some other conspiracy behind this. If they turn a blind eye, something bad will probably happen.
Lu Huaiyan raised his eyes to look at Meng Wanyue in front of him, frowned, and said in a calm voice, "Following so closely."
When Pei Yunchen heard this, he glanced at him and murmured in a low voice, "You followed pretty closely."
His voice was very low, but Lu Huaiyan still heard it clearly. He didn't reply, but his eyes fell in the direction of the ticket gate outside the door.
The door blocked his view, so his vision was limited, but he could still see Xu Xiang pacing around the ticket office, looking around with a serious expression, as if he was waiting for an opportunity.
After a while, a man in work clothes came out and stood by the door and shouted, "The movie is about to start, hurry up if you haven't checked your tickets yet!"
As soon as the voice came out, several more people entered the ticket office.
Xu Xiang also walked in with the sparse crowd and sat in the middle near the door.
After about two or three minutes, the movie started.
In the dim movie theater, light and shadow flickered on the faces of the audience below. Xu Xiang's attention was not on the movie at all. He turned his head from time to time, his eyes scanning the crowd.
Pei Yunchen noticed the man's actions, nudged Lu Huaiyan with his hand, and said in a low voice: "He still likes to stare at that little girl."
Lu Huaiyan nodded.
The drugged girl sat in the front with the kettle aside, guessing that the man was waiting for her to drink water.
The movie was playing, and the noise was gradually replaced by the sound of the film.
I don’t know how long it took, but Xu Xiang, who was sitting by the door, suddenly stood up and hurried out the door, as if he was going to the public toilet.
Lu Huaiyan was still looking at Jiang Xiachu, but suddenly he noticed that figure out of the corner of his eye. His eyes darkened and he turned to look at Pei Yunchen and gave him a wink.
Pei Yunchen immediately understood what he meant and followed quickly.
That man was not a good guy. He was most likely a human trafficker. Now that they had met him, they must not let him harm them.
After they saw the drugging scene before ticket checking, they had already discussed countermeasures.
After the man walked out a few steps, Pei Yunchen also went out from the back door, ready to capture the man first.
Lu Huaiyan continued to sit in the corner, his eyes constantly scanning the crowd in front of him, seemingly looking at Meng Wanyue's figure inadvertently.
But his gaze always drifted uncontrollably towards Jiang Xiachu and Jiang Lin.
Looking at the two of them sitting together watching a movie, he couldn't help but frowning, and his mood inexplicably began to become irritated.
Looking at Jiang Xiachu's profile, Lu Huaiyan's thoughts suddenly became confused, and his brain inexplicably went blank.
"Two and a Half Pairs" was playing on the screen. Lu Huaiyan looked up at the sweet and shy look of the heroine when she fell in love. Suddenly, a smiling little face appeared in his mind.
After being in a trance for a moment, Lu Huaiyan quickly shook his head, trying to make himself sober.
He actually used Jiang Xiachu's face to replace the heroine in the movie.
As the plot of the movie continues to advance, the relationship between the heroine and the hero continues to heat up, and they are about to get married.
The audience watching the movie below felt very involved and had a lot of joy on their faces.
But Lu Huaiyan in the corner couldn't laugh at all. When he thought that one day Jiang Xiachu would marry someone else and have children like in the movie, he felt like his heart was blocked by a huge stone and felt extremely uncomfortable.
He had always thought that his feelings for Jiang Xiachu were just brotherly, but after calming down and thinking about it carefully, he realized that apart from Jiang Xiachu, he had never carefully prepared New Year gifts for anyone every year like this.
He has never cared so much about others.
He felt very uncomfortable when Jiang Xiachu distanced herself from him, and he felt even more uncomfortable when he saw her getting closer to others.
Thinking of this, Lu Huaiyan's hands clenched unconsciously, his heart tightened, and he looked at Jiang Xiachu's back with calm eyes, with complicated emotions in his eyes.
