Old Two chuckled awkwardly, “Sorry, sorry, Brother Li Tao, I couldn’t hold it back.”
Li Tao shot him a glance, “You’re no good, a complete waste.”
Old Two didn’t argue back.
There was nothing he could do about it.
Li Tao pulled Old Two to a spot.
Old Two scratched his head and smacked his lips a few times, “Brother, that perfume was really something, damn! That guy didn’t trick us after all.”
Li Tao nodded and handed him the small pill.
“Let me chat with Shen Manni later, you find a chance to drug her. Be smart about it and don’t let her figure it out. I’ll try to buy you time!”
“Haha—Brother, you can count on me! I’m a pro at this, it’s dark and the lighting is dim, that little lady won’t notice a thing.”
“Alright, remember to adapt on the fly!”
Li Tao reminded him again.
Only then did he straighten his clothes.
He then quickly walked towards where Shen Manni was sitting.
The table was littered with empty wine bottles.
It was clear that Shen Manni had been drinking heavily tonight.
She was slightly tipsy, her cheeks flushed.
“It’s time to go home.”
Shen Manni reached for her Hermes bag on the chair beside her.
She got up, ready to leave.
But at that moment,
“Hey, beautiful, don’t rush off!”
A voice called out.
The lechery in the voice was unmistakable.
The person approaching was none other than Li Tao and his underling.
The previous drug experience had been satisfying.
This time, Li Tao didn’t even bother to act.
Shen Manni felt a wave of disgust and instinctively frowned.
“Get lost—scram.”
Shen Manni paused, feeling her head swimming.
Meanwhile,
Li Tao and Old Two were almost holding their breath.
Their hearts were in their throats.
They were filled with trepidation.
The drug might work on other girls.
But what if it didn’t work on Shen Manni?
As it turned out, they were overthinking.
Shen Manni was already zoning out.
The two exchanged glances.
After a few more exchanges,
They noticed that Shen Manni was starting to slur her words.
This made them even more brazen.
They asked Shen Manni to sit back down.
Li Tao tried to sit next to her.
He even wanted to reach out and put his arm around her.
“Don’t want to die? Then don’t put your filthy hands on me!!!”
Shen Manni snapped.
Her mind slightly cleared.
Li Tao was startled and didn’t dare make another move.
He exchanged a glance with Old Two.
Li Tao: What the hell is going on?
Old Two: I don’t know.
Li Tao’s eyes flashed with viciousness, but he smiled on the surface.
“Alright, alright, Miss, I’ll sit across from you with my buddy.”
He sat down opposite Shen Manni.
Shen Manni’s earlier fierce resistance seemed to disappear.
Her mind was heavy.
“I noticed you’ve been drinking alone for a long time. Drinking alone can’t solve anything, why not share your troubles with someone?”
Li Tao started buttering up, looking for a topic.
He was trying to buy time for Old Two.
Shen Manni’s consciousness was getting blurry.
Her instinct told her to leave quickly.
But her body seemed to be out of control.
While Shen Manni’s attention was fully on Li Tao,
Old Two started his sneaky business.
The dark lighting was perfect for his actions.
After a while,
Shen Manni gritted her teeth and forced herself to stand up.
She had long realized something was wrong!!!
Even if she, Shen Manni, were at her lowest point,
She would never share a drink with a man like Li Tao.
Absolutely not!!!
There must be something on her that the other party had sprayed.
Her instinct screamed at her to leave this place as soon as possible.
“Hey—hey, Miss, don’t leave!”
Seeing Shen Manni grabbing her bag and intending to leave,
Li Tao’s heart skipped half a beat. He quickly stood up and blocked her way.
He thought Shen Manni would be completely fooled by him.
Who would have thought, halfway through their conversation,
She suddenly turned the tables on him.
It caught him off guard.
Shen Manni’s face was flushed, her tone icy, “Get out of my way!!”
‘Hah—you’re doomed, yet you’re still putting on an act? You’re quite good at barking, aren’t you? Let’s see if you can bark after tonight!!!’
Li Tao thought viciously.
He picked up the wineglass that Old Two had dosed.
“Tonight, meeting you was fate. If you want to leave, fine, but give me face and drink a toast first.”
What is your face worth?
Shen Manni really wanted to say that.
From Li Tao’s behavior,
It was clear that the wine was definitely tampered with.
There’s no smoke without fire.
A man suddenly being overly nice to you out of the blue,
You think he has no ulterior motives,
Just wants to treat you to a meal,
And drink some wine?
Come on, nobody’s that naive.
A grown woman knows what men are up to.
Either she’s feigning ignorance or truly clueless.
In the shadows not far away, Lin Fan was watching everything intently, holding his breath!!!
This was a crucial part of the plan!!!
Let Li Tao and his gang play the villains.
And he, the Dragon King, would naturally be the hero!!!
All he had to do next was wait for Li Tao to succeed.
Then take Shen Manni to a hotel.
He’d get a convenient reward.
Or, while Shen Manni still had some awareness,
He’d step in to resolve the situation.
Of course,
He had to act while Shen Manni still had a sliver of clarity.
If he could provide the poison, he could also provide the antidote.
He wouldn’t completely knock her out.
But when she woke up,
The deed would already be done.
A gentleman?
What can a gentleman get?
Maybe the girl would roll her eyes upon waking up.
“I gave you a chance, and you failed to use it.”
Well,
That might be the case for some women.
But for a serious woman,
Even if she didn’t report him to the police,
She’d probably grab a knife and stab him.
In any case,
Lin Fan’s plan was to fundamentally alter Shen Manni’s perception of him.
Having a relationship versus not having one
Are two completely different concepts.
That was Lin Fan’s strategy.
“Drink up, hurry up and drink!!!”
Lin Fan narrowed his eyes and looked at Shen Manni.
He was getting impatient.
And Shen Manni didn’t disappoint him.
She actually picked up the wineglass and drank it.
“Damn!!! It’s finally done!!!”
Seeing Shen Manni drink the drugged wine,
Lin Fan slapped his thigh.
Shen Manni didn’t know what was happening to her, but she really drank the wine. Soon, a burning heat surged through her body.
She turned the wineglass upside down.
“Satisfied?”
Li Tao nodded vigorously.
“Satisfied, satisfied.”
This was more than just satisfaction!!!
If he could,
Li Tao wanted to break into a dance.
A jig of joy.
“Alright, get out of my way—scram—”
Shen Manni’s tone was weak, as if her body had no strength left.
Li Tao chuckled, his eyes full of mockery.
“Sure, sure, I’ll make way for you. Go ahead.”
Shen Manni tried to lift her leg to leave.
However, a bizarre scene unfolded.
She realized she had no strength to even lift her leg.
The loud noises around her gradually faded.
Vaguely,
She heard words like ‘Brother, it’s done’ and ‘Tonight’s gonna be wild’.
Shen Manni’s bright red lips seemed about to bleed.
If she could go back,
How she wished she hadn’t come to this place tonight!!!
But it was too late.
Shen Manni’s eyes gradually grew hazy.
The stubbornness and resistance in her eyes were slowly dissipating.
“Hey, Xiao Xu, that looks like your wife.”
“Where? I can’t see her.”

villain is the number one simp for the book's leading female protagonist, Shen Wan'er. As expected, he later becomes a tool for the main character to show off and slap faces, ultimately meeting a tragic end with his family ruined and his life in shambles. Fortunately, he awakens the [Universal Pure Love System], which allows him to earn points by performing acts of pure love. To change his fate, Gu Yan makes a decisive choice to seek warmth and companionship with the book's biggest villain—Cold Qingqiu. ........... My name is Leng Qingqiu. To find the murderer who killed my parents years ago, I deliberately blinded myself so that everyone would lower their guard around me. Just as I was secretly accumulating power and capital according to my initial plan, a man walked into my world. "Lengleng, Qingqing, Qiuqiu, which nickname do you prefer?" I don't like any of them. You'd better leave quickly! "Why aren't you saying anything? How about I call you my baby wife?" Leng Qingqiu thinks to herself, this man is truly annoying! (Stubborn pure love warrior + single female lead + true pure love + 1v1)

grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)

iemie, male, Race: Moon. Hobby: Collecting anomalies. At first, he thought he possessed two systems: the Crimson Rainbow Moon and the Clear Cold Frost Moon. One day, he discovered that he himself could also become a system for others, holding the chessboard of fate. The Eighth Epoch, also known as the Eternal Moon Epoch. Humans, witches, elves, bloodline descendants, specters, demons, and spirits together compose a new history. Walking the path on behalf of the moon, before he knew it, Chen Miemie's footsteps were followed by all manner of strange and wondrous anomalies.

I'm just a traveler who enjoys collecting interesting creatures," Chen Miemie said.

ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
