A strong smell of smoke wafted over.
Inside the private room, a group of men of varying heights and builds were smoking incense.
If you didn't know better, you'd think you'd stumbled into some kind of smog-filled scene.
Yi Lianxue's smile froze instantly. She covered her nose and choked several times, attracting the attention of the men present.
In an instant, many people's eyes were filled with drooling.
"Wow! You've really brought a stunningly beautiful female companion! Her figure is absolutely gorgeous."
"I heard she's a female celebrity! Come on in, have a couple of drinks."
Another man whistled lewdly, "Beautiful lady, come into my arms."
Yi Lianxue's lips twitched violently.
Originally, she had expected that cocktail parties and dinner parties would be high-class events.
Those who arrived were either wealthy young men or social celebrities, each one dignified, poised, and elegant.
But reality slapped him hard in the face.
Looking at this group of old men with oily faces, fat heads and big ears, and beer bellies, she almost threw up.
However, when she saw that they were dressed in designer clothes and wore watches worth millions, she put on a fake smile again and walked into the private room.
"Come on, beautiful, sit here!" A fat man pulled out a seat for her.
Yi Lianxue calmly walked to the spot, then picked up her glass first, "Sorry everyone, I'm two minutes late, so I'll punish myself with two drinks, bottoms up!"
She downed two glasses of wine in one go and slowly sat down amidst a round of applause.
"Well done, this girl is really something! Much better than you two 'princesses'." Some people teased the girls accompanying them.
The hostess immediately snorted, "Of course, she used to be a female celebrity, a rich and beautiful woman, her demeanor is undeniable. But now she's just like us, here to keep you company."
Yi Lianxue's face stiffened, and before she could get angry, a groping hand was placed on her shoulder. "Alright, Miss Yi, don't bother arguing with these low-class women. Why don't you talk about things in your entertainment industry?"
Yi Lianxue suppressed the urge to slap his hand away, and pretended to pout, saying that she had been framed, suppressed and blacklisted in the industry.
"This is outrageous!" one investor slammed his fist on the table in anger. "How could someone as beautiful as Miss Lianxue be wrong! Don't worry, I have some connections. I can invest in your script and help you make a comeback."
Yi Lianxue was moved to tears, which made the old men even more eager.
A wealthy man, seemingly struck by a sudden thought, pulled a box from his pocket. "Here, Miss Lianxue, please accept this gift as a token of our friendship. If you ever encounter any difficulties in the future, feel free to come to me."
Yi Lianxue feigned surprise and asked, "Can I open it?"
"certainly!"
When she opened it, she saw an emerald bracelet. Although it looked old-fashioned and not like something a young girl would wear, it was obviously very valuable.
"Hey! Old Wang, isn't this the wedding anniversary gift you bought for your wife? Aren't you afraid your tigress will rage if you just resell it like this?" someone teased.
Old Wang said with a disdainful look, "Why would I be afraid of her? When men socialize outside, they always have to give gifts. They can just make up for it next time."
"Thank you, Mr. Wang." Yi Lianxue was deeply moved and gave him a hug, which caused a stir among the audience.
Yi Lianxue was secretly delighted. She could tell that these people were indeed quite capable, so she tried even harder to please them and join the conversation. Even when they occasionally took advantage of her or touched her thigh, she always wore a sweet smile on her face.
Little did they know that the internet was already in an uproar.
"Oh my god! My eyes are going to rot. Is this Yi Lianxue's most real and ugly side?"
"So this is what the dinner parties of the rich are like! My God! These successful people are clearly a bunch of sleazy men, groping breasts and buttocks all the time. Is Yi Lianxue really so despicable?"
"She's supposed to be the daughter of the Yi family! How could she do something so shameless?"
"This live stream is amazing! It's already surpassed 1.2 billion views!"
It turns out that just half an hour ago, a blogger on a small account posted a live stream—revealing the inside story of a popular celebrity in the entertainment industry!
Some people clicked in out of curiosity and were stunned when they saw Yi Lianxue.
Not long ago, they had a major mishap, and before the hype had died down, they've pulled another live-streaming incident.
People who saw it forwarded and commented on it, and the number of discussions went from dozens to tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands, directly to the top of the trending topics!
"You're not new to Yi Lianxue. Her previous scandals have clearly shown her that she's a vain and materialistic snob. What shameful things wouldn't she do? This is just a publicity stunt to gain attention through such black-and-white tactics. Don't be fooled."
"Anyway, die-hard fans can accept whatever their goddess becomes, as long as she doesn't commit a crime."
"Wait! Look at what those rich people are taking out in the live stream! Those medicine and powder packages... could they be drugs?!"
At the dinner party, Yi Lianxue clearly had the same question, "What, what is this?"
A drunken old man came over and grabbed her, saying with ill intent, "It's something that will make you feel like you're in heaven, baby, want to take a sip?"
"I won't go!" Yi Lianxue had never been in contact with drugs before, and she never expected to be so close to them.
"Don't resist, I guarantee you'll love the taste. Just take a couple of puffs and I'll invest ten million in you, how about it?"
Yi Lianxue's heart pounded wildly; she couldn't resist the temptation of money.
Netizens were outraged: "!!! My God, what kind of illegal scene is this? Call the police immediately!"
If it's just about drinking with someone, then it can only be said that the person lacks character and morality. But if it involves group drug use, then it's no longer an entertainment event.
Upon hearing this, the police immediately mobilized and arrived at the hotel ten minutes later, breaking down the door and entering.
Yi Lianxue was enjoying herself immensely, feeling almost euphoric, when she was suddenly interrupted. Before she could even process what was happening, the police rushed over, handcuffed her, and took her away.
What started as an entertainment event escalated into a major social issue, causing quite a stir. Not only was Yi Lianxue's reputation completely ruined, but the Yi family was also implicated by public opinion once again.
The Yi family gathered together again.
"Brother! I'm not trying to criticize you, but you really don't know how to raise a child at all. You've let her make one mistake after another, and now things have escalated to this point, even involving illegal drug use." Yi Laosan shook his head in disappointment: "Because of Lianxue, the Yi family's image has been damaged. If you can't manage the situation, you might as well hand over the position of general manager and let the capable person take over!"
