The cocktail party is about to begin, and the clothes to wear to the cocktail party should be carefully selected, which is also in line with Wang Hanzhi's meticulous behavior.
Lu Ming dutifully pushed over the huge clothes hanger, on which were neatly hung sets of clothes.
Before traveling through time, Li Yuebai knew that she was good-looking and would occasionally dress up, but not to this extent. When she first saw so many luxurious clothes, she was a little dazzled.
The suits that were tailored and handmade by traditional craftsmen, the antique cufflinks, none of them could be afforded by his monthly salary before he traveled through time.
"System, do you think what clothes you wear will have an impact on the subsequent plot?" Li Yuebai asked casually while observing carefully.
"Clothing is always an important element of this article." The system said seriously: "This article describes the appearance a lot."
The original text often uses whole paragraphs to describe Wang Hanzhi's appearance. In the early stage, it is nothing more than highlighting the sense of abstinence - black suit, cuffs buttoned completely, a tie without any unnecessary fancy decorations, pure metal jewelry...
"The original owner has already taken the path of abstinence, why does he still attract perverts?" Li Yuebai was helpless.
"According to the logic of x-novels, the more abstinent a character is, the more likely they are to arouse the desire to conquer him." The system spoke seriously about this shameless topic.
We have to admit that this is indeed the direction of human desire. The more icy and beautiful a person is, the more some people want to tear him or her apart and make him or her dirty.
"Then it's better to do the opposite." Li Yuebai said.
"The original owner's style is placed here. If the changes are too drastic, it might damage the original owner's image." The system warned cautiously.
"Yeah, I know." Li Yuebai leaned over, his fingertips slid across a row of clothes, and finally stopped somewhere.
The suit he chose was still a dark-colored suit, but it was different from the style Wang Hanzhi usually wore. The fabric was smoother and the cut was a little bolder. The color seemed dark black at first glance, but when the light shone on it, it glowed with a layer of scarlet light.
"Host, are you sure you want to choose this one?" The system said, "From a psychological point of view, this one is provocative. Are you sure you want to wear this one to meet Lin Xie?"
"This is exactly the effect I want." Li Yuebai nodded: "No matter what, even if I dress like a priest, he will still have malicious intentions. Changing the direction may have unexpected results."
When choosing accessories, Li Yuebai also deliberately chose the more aggressive and provocative ones.
Wang Hanzhi usually wears platinum jewelry, but this time Li Yuebai replaced all of them with gold ones - men's bracelets, rose-shaped collar buckles, all of which shone with an ambiguous golden light. In the chest pocket, there was an extra scarlet scarf with a leopard head pattern embroidered with gold thread.
After packing up, the time is almost up.
"Teacher, do I need to accompany you to the cocktail party?" Lu Ming asked, sounding a little embarrassed.
He is a student with a strong temper and a somewhat introverted personality. He has never liked such occasions, but as long as Wang Hanzhi asks him to do something, he will obey him obediently.
"No need." Li Yuebai said, "You go back first - you are not allowed to rest, and keep in touch with me by phone at all times."
"Hmm?" Lu Ming accepted the order with a confused look.
When Li Yuebai appeared at the cocktail party, he immediately attracted many people's attention.
People already knew Attorney Wang Hanzhi and had seen his outstanding appearance a long time ago, but this time, they all felt that he was a little different from the past, which was refreshing. Moreover, this change was not unusual and not worth asking specifically. Therefore, they just looked at him a few more times and chatted with him as usual, without treating him specially.
Li Yuebai put on a stylized expression, talked with everyone and clinked glasses.
"Host, Lin Xie will be here soon." The system suddenly reminded.
"Oh?" A little faster than in the original.
In the original work, Lin Xie waited patiently until the cocktail party was about to end before approaching Wang Hanzhi.
Could it be that Lin Xie is not so patient this time?
Li Yuebai calmed himself down, found a relatively quiet corner, and waited quietly.
Not long after, a voice rang in my ears: "Mr. Wang Hanzhi, nice to meet you, I am Lin Xie."
A standard title, polite words...if written down, it would really be a very ordinary greeting.
However, Lin Xie's voice was obviously different. His voice was much deeper than that of the average young person, and it contained a faint smile. To be fair, it could be said that it was very nice to hear. It was a dark and low voice like a nightmare, and it made people shudder in their hearts.
"Hello." Li Yuebai nodded and looked at Lin Xie.
The original text rarely describes the dialogue between the two at this stage, because the dialogue is not the focus, the focus is on eye contact.
The protagonist in x-novels always has an aura around him, which makes others feel favorable towards him at first sight.
Li Yuebai stared at Lin Xie's eyes, and the more he looked, the more he felt that this halo was indeed terrifying.
"I just listened to your speech and benefited a lot from it." Lin Xie smiled politely: "I wonder if Mr. Wang is willing to cooperate with the Lin Group?"
Li Yuebai searched the original owner's memory and found that the original owner had never cooperated with the Lin Group. To be specific, he had never received an invitation from the Lin Group.
"Oh?" Li Yuebai narrowed his eyes: "Mr. Lin, as far as I know, the Lin Group has never been interested in me."
"My father has a private lawyer that he has worked with for many years, so he never found an opportunity to work with you." Lin Xie also smiled: "But I am different."
If those socialites saw this smile of his, it would be enough to make them cover their hearts and secretly be infatuated for a long time. Unfortunately, this had no effect on Li Yuebai.
"That's even more confusing." Li Yuebai also laughed: "I wonder if Master Lin is inviting me to cooperate with the Lin Group or with Master Lin personally?"
He smiled like that, but he used all his strength to suckle.
It's not that Wang Hanzhi never smiles in his daily life, but his smile is cold and distant, never showing any temptation. Li Yuebai showed this smile to Wang Hanzhi, but he had practiced it with the system countless times before, so it was neither excessive nor too exaggerated, and it could release hormones appropriately.
"Very good, host." The system said coldly: "If you go too far, the system will remind you that you are OOC."
"Thank you, it seems that I have mastered the level quite well." Li Yuebai said.
No matter how broad-minded Lin Xie is and how high his position is, he is not old enough to support himself after all. Faced with such blatant temptation, there will always be a moment when he cannot control himself.
Lin Xie's eyes darkened, and he could not help but step forward, get close to Li Yuebai's ear, and whispered in a low voice: "What do you think, Lawyer Wang?"
At the same time, he reached out to Li Yuebai's belt and lightly slipped a business card into it.
According to what was written in the original work, Lin Xie put down his business card, glanced at Wang Hanzhi, and then turned around and left with great self-control.
However, due to Li Yuebai's deliberate guidance, Lin Xie lost his original self-control.
After he put down the business card with his right hand, he couldn't help but touch Li Yuebai's arm, slid down along the smooth fabric, and then squeezed Li Yuebai's hand lightly.
Li Yuebai did not move, nor did the smile on his face. Instead, he leaned forward slightly and whispered intimately into Lin Xie's ear.
He smiled, and his voice returned to its original cold and arrogant tone, and the words he uttered were merciless.
"Let go." Li Yuebai said, "Do you want to be like Master Zhao, unable to come down from the stage in front of everyone?"
Lin Xie's expression changed and he let go of her hand as if nothing had happened.
"Just now at the meeting, the question raised by Master Zhao was probably not his own idea." Li Yuebai continued: "Young Master, what is your purpose? Why are you hiding it?"
"Huh?" Lin Xie pretended to be clueless and shrugged.
"Could it be..." Li Yuebai retracted his smile and returned to his cold expression. He was not going to let him go just like that. He whispered, "... have improper thoughts about me?"
Lin Xie was stunned.
He didn't expect that Wang Hanzhi would speak like this, proactively, directly, and without scruples. This completely overturned his previous investigation results.
What’s even more terrifying is that he actually called me “Little Master” which sounded like a joke.
Lin Xie has always been considered to be scheming beyond his age, but in front of Wang Hanzhi, he seemed to have turned back into an ignorant 18-year-old boy, and all his thoughts were seen through.
It's really a bit frustrating.
While he was stunned, Li Yuebai took the opportunity to withdraw and left.
After leaving the private moment with Lin Xie, he couldn't extricate himself from the cocktail party for a while. Wang Hanzhi was a famous person and had just given an important speech. He couldn't leave early in front of so many important people.
After talking with other important people at the party for a while, Li Yuebai noticed a new problem.
There were so many people coming to toast him.
Wang Hanzhi's alcohol tolerance is moderate. He is very self-disciplined and never drinks too much. Even when attending a cocktail party, others understand his temper and rarely toast him.
But this time, people came over one after another to toast him.
For a while, I was overwhelmed.
Fortunately, since Li Yuebai came here, the system has helped to enhance this body's alcohol tolerance, otherwise it might have been drunk.
First get the person drunk, then have sex with him/her while drunk. This is also a common tactic in adult literature.
Li Yuebai tried to find Lin Xie, but found that he had disappeared in the crowd and no one knew where he went.
The young master is indeed not simple. After being ridiculed, he did not get depressed. Instead, he quickened his pace of attack and even resorted to tricks like getting the man drunk. He must be trying to end the battle quickly.
Li Yuebai estimated that he had drunk enough alcohol, so he pretended to be drunk, pushed away the crowd, tried to maintain a normal pace, and went to the bathroom.
The bathroom was decorated in a gorgeous style, with black and white glazed tiles and a black marble sink. The more gorgeous it was, the more it gave people an inexplicable sense of shame.
Because in the original work, it was here that Lin Xie pushed Wang Hanzhi down for the first time, performing the classic bathroom play scene.
Li Yuebai took out his cell phone, connected to the video call with Lu Ming, gave Lu Ming a few instructions in the video, and then hid the cell phone in a corner, leaving only the camera facing outside.
After arranging all this, I relaxed a little, turned on the faucet, and washed my hands carefully.
Amid the sound of splashing water, the bathroom door was opened.
Lin Xie stood at the door, looking at Li Yuebai with an ambiguous look.
Li Yuebai turned in front of the huge bathroom mirror and glanced at Lin Xie coldly, as if he didn't know him at all.
Unfortunately, his face was now slightly red, his eyes were dim, and his aloof look was strange, like a red flower in the mist, with a special kind of temptation.
Lin Xie's eyes darkened again. He walked in slowly, pretending to be nonchalant, closed the bathroom door, and locked it with a click.
Li Yuebai frowned: "Get out of the way."
"Why do you talk to me like that?" Lin Xie raised a smile.
He walked closer to Li Yuebai step by step, the smile on his lips gradually disappeared, and an invisible aura of coercion gradually emerged. The originally spacious bathroom actually seemed a bit cramped.
When they were so close that they couldn't get any closer, Lin Xie held Li Yuebai's shoulders almost gently, then exerted great force and pressed him against the cold wall.
"There are only two of us here." Lin Xie whispered in Li Yuebai's ear: "You can't escape."
