After the empress transmigrated, she became the judge of the entertainment industry.
Chapter 23 Dinner (5) Reap What You Sow
Indeed, Ye Wanyin intends to drag Cheng Yanye into this mess as well.
She had considered randomly selecting an innocent passerby and throwing them together with Ye Sanqing, but this approach would have significant risks, as passersby were far more uncontrollable than Cheng Yanye.
Ye Wanyin had considered the consequences of succeeding.
The first possibility is that Ye Sanqing and Cheng Yanye will get married. Even so, Ye Wanyin is confident that she can make it seem like Cheng Yanye has let her down and gain benefits from him.
However, judging from Ye Sanqing's current behavior, this possibility is extremely slim. The more likely scenario is that if they get together, they will both be betraying Ye Wanyin, and Ye Sanqing will also be branded as someone who stole his sister's fiancé.
No matter how Ye Wanyin thought about it, she felt that this matter was extremely advantageous to her; she could easily get what was rightfully hers. If others got involved, things might not go so smoothly.
So she decided to make a move on Cheng Yanye.
Anyway, it'll definitely annoy Ye Sanqing for a while!
Ye Wanyin quickly received a reply. After confirming that Cheng Yanye's condition was not wrong, she quietly opened the door and went out to find a hiding place.
Meanwhile, Ye Sanqing had just returned to the lounge and changed into his sportswear.
She glanced at the new message on her phone, then handed it to Ye Kening, and said with a smile, "No matter what happens in a moment, don't make a sound. It's going to be good."
Ye Kening helped Ye Sanqing put his phone away and was about to ask if something was wrong when she heard a knock on the door.
She went to check the door and saw a woman she didn't recognize standing outside.
"Is Miss Ye here?" The person who came was Tong Wuyu. She had been staring at Ye Sanqing for a long time, and finally waited until she left the crowded area, so she followed her all the way here.
There was Ye Kening next to him, and she was still hesitating about whether to find an excuse to leave Ye Sanqing alone when Ye Wanyin sent a message urging her.
Tong Wuyu overheard them saying they were going to find a place to practice their moves, and knew that it would be even harder to make a move in a crowded place, so she gritted her teeth and decided to start now.
Ye Kening looked at the person who had come in, who was holding two glasses of champagne and looked like he was going to offer a toast.
Ye Kening knew that she was the embodiment of a happy fairy tale. When she was observing Ye Wanyin's Weibo, she also took the opportunity to observe several accounts that frequently interacted with Ye Wanyin.
It has to be said that to become an internet celebrity, you need to know how to use Photoshop.
Is this the good show her sister was talking about? Ye Kening naturally knew that the other person had a good relationship with Ye Wanyin, so she stepped aside to let the other person in.
Upon seeing Ye Sanqing, Tong Wuyu immediately launched into a series of polite greetings, so warmly that Ye Sanqing herself began to doubt whether the other party was truly her old friend whom she hadn't seen for many years.
However, Ye Sanqing knew very well that she did not have this old friend, and the message she had just received was actually sent by Cha Ziwen, which was a reminder that Tong Wuyu was preparing to take action.
Tong Wuyu thought no one had noticed her movements, but who could blame her when the other party was Cha Ziwen, who had been lurking on the front lines for years, watching the drama unfold? Cha Ziwen secretly filmed her actions of slipping the drug into her glass, avoiding the surveillance cameras and the crowd.
"You're having such a great time today, let me toast you!" Seeing that the atmosphere was just right, Tong Wuyu handed a glass of wine to Ye Sanqing.
"Wait a minute." Ye Sanqing didn't take her wine, and instead stared at her.
Tong Wuyu couldn't help but feel a little guilty: "What's wrong? Can't Miss Ye drink alcohol? But I saw you drinking quite a bit with everyone just now, this..." Tong Wuyu gave her a look that said, "Are you not giving me face?"
Ye Sanqing stared at her for a while longer, until Tong Wuyu couldn't hold back any longer and wanted to say something more, then laughed and said, "My sister is right here, and you only brought two glasses of wine? Miss Tong, you've made a mistake in your preparations, haven't you?"
Tong Wuyu naturally couldn't understand the hidden meaning behind the words "mistaken preparation," and chuckled awkwardly, saying, "It was my oversight. Well then, I'll go find a waiter to get a drink right away. Sorry, please wait a moment."
As she was about to turn around with the two glasses of wine, Ye Kening stopped her: "Miss Tong, it's too much trouble to walk around with these glasses of wine. Just put them on the table, and we'll wait for you to come back so we can drink together."
Ye Kening gave her a bright smile. Although she didn't know what her sister was planning, there was probably something wrong with the wine. In any case, she would leave the wine there first.
Ye Sanqing gave Tong Wuyu an affirming look from behind, and Ye Kening, receiving the signal, said even more enthusiastically, "Come on, let me help you carry it."
Tong Wuyu, holding the wine glass, couldn't dodge easily, and Ye Kening grabbed the stem of the glass. In this position, she naturally couldn't struggle. There was only one dose of the medicine; if any was spilled, not only would Ye Sanqing likely not drink it, but the potency of the medicine would also be questionable.
So she could only follow the other person's force and put both glasses on the table, glanced at them several times to remember the location of the glass with the medicine, and then turned and left.
As soon as Ye Sanqing saw her leave, he immediately took out two empty bottles of different colors from the drawer, poured more than half of both bottles of wine into them, then took out a bottle of champagne that had been opened beforehand, poured the wine into it to restore the original water level, and finally switched the positions of the two glasses.
Seeing her smooth and effortless movements, Ye Kening immediately knew that everything happening in front of her was prepared. The contents of the bottle were probably to be sent for testing, but why was one-third left behind?
She leaned closer to Ye Sanqing and asked, "What is that?"
"Something that makes people reap what they sow," Ye Sanqing said. She never showed mercy to her opponents, but since Ye Wanyin herself wasn't here, it was a bit difficult to get her drunk right now. She would just take a portion as a backup, while Tong Wuyu would also have to suffer a third of the consequences.
Ye Kening: "Is this what a high-society banquet is like...?" She didn't know when the other party had started planning, or when Ye Sanqing had seen through it all and taken precautions. She just felt that the so-called high society was really very risky.
At this moment, Tong Wuyu returned. She glanced at the two glasses and, finding no signs of tampering, felt relieved. Raising her glass to Ye Sanqing, she said, "I brought back some new wine. Let's have a drink!"
Ye Kening: Wouldn't that mean she wouldn't be able to drink it?
Before she could speak, Ye Sanqing picked up the two glasses of wine that were originally on the table and walked over: "Your glass is for my sister. Let's give it to the younger one and let her drink the new one. After all, this wine has been open for a while, and the flavor should have been somewhat diminished."
Tong Wuyu stared intently at the hand holding the glass, and upon hearing these words, she thought to herself, "It's not even red wine, what flavor does it have?"
Ye Kening chimed in at the opportune moment, "Wow, I've never tried this kind of wine before. I really want to savor it." As she spoke, she gave Tong Wuyu a look that said, "To hold such an expensive wine so casually as an everyday drink, you truly deserve to be called a socialite and internet celebrity."
It has to be said that Ye Kening's look pleased Tong Wuyu. She thought arrogantly, "Hmph, you poor wretch, so what if you're Ye Sanqing's sister? You still have to look up to me."
Moreover, she noticed that the bubbles in the two glasses had subsided somewhat, and since she was in the wrong for taking one less glass of wine, she figured it wouldn't be a big problem as long as she took the glass that wasn't spiked.
So Tong Wuyu took the wine from Ye Sanqing's left hand and handed the latest glass to Ye Kening.
After the three clinked glasses, Tong Wuyu watched Ye Sanqing drink half a glass without hesitation before she felt relieved. At this moment, she suddenly felt her hands trembling and quickly took a big gulp of wine to try to calm herself down.
Ye Sanqing: "Is the air conditioning here not working properly?"
She didn't know exactly what to do when this thing took effect, so she just demonstrated it for now.
Seeing her like this, Tong Wuyu's face practically screamed "It's done!" She was also feeling a bit feverish, but she only felt excited and ignored the unusual sensation, stepping forward to say, "It's cooler outside, why don't we go out for some fresh air?"
"But my grandparents are still waiting for me." Ye Sanqing looked conflicted.
"It's alright, it's windy by the lake. Let's go for a walk over there, then go to their side. It won't be more than a few minutes later," Tong Wuyu said anxiously. She looked like the drug was starting to take effect, and they needed to leave the main building quickly. Otherwise, if she grabbed a random man... she didn't care, but ruining Wanwan's plans wouldn't be good.
Tong Wuyu only knew that Ye Wanyin said she had a prepared man, and thought that he might be a bald, greasy married man. She couldn't give Ye Sanqing any chance to find a good man.
"Miss Tong seems to know this place very well!" Ye Kening exclaimed. "Unlike me, I've never been here before. Let's hurry and accompany my sister for a walk! With Miss Tong with us, we certainly won't get lost."
“Of course,” Tong Wuyu said triumphantly, tossing her hair. “You’ll all come with me.” As she walked out, she was thinking about what excuse she would use to get rid of Ye Kening.
Damn it, I should have gotten more medicine. Ye Wanyin didn't even mention Ye Kening was there. But then she thought better of it; it's better to avoid trouble. The most important thing right now is to get Ye Sanqing to Villa No. 4; everything else is secondary.
The three of them came out of the main building and walked towards the villa complex on the side. By this time, the banquet was coming to an end, and there were guests leaving in twos and threes along the main road.
Tong Wuyu had already taken the opportunity to send a message to Ye Wanyin. Seeing that they were just a short walk away and around the corner from Villa No. 4, she wondered if she should force them to go in. After all, Ye Kening was just a girl and didn't seem to pose much of a threat.
Unexpectedly, Ye Sanqing said to Ye Kening, "I'm afraid Grandpa and the others will wait too long. Why don't you go and tell them first? I'll just go to the lakeside for a bit of fresh air and then I'll come over."
Ye Kening understood what she meant and glanced at Ye Sanqing with some worry. Ye Sanqing returned her an affirming look.
That's true, it wasn't my sister who drank that wine, so there shouldn't be any problems.
Ye Kening nodded and said, "Then I'll be right there. Sister, come quickly! Oh, and do you want me to hold your phone?"
"You can hold it for me first. I'll need you to hold it again later when I need to demonstrate. It's too much trouble to carry it back and forth. You can give it to me later when we're done," Ye Sanqing said.
"Okay, then I'll trouble Miss Tong to take care of my sister for me." Ye Kening turned and walked in another direction.
Moving to a corner out of their sight, Ye Kening ran into Cha Ziwen.
The other person looked at her with an unsurprised expression, "Ye Kening, right? I'll add you to the group first."
Ye Kening: ? Everyone's quite enthusiastic, huh?
Since the other person recognized her and seemed to have been waiting there all along, it must be part of tonight's plan. She thought for a moment and said, "My sister asked me to go find Grandpa and the others."
Cha Ziwen: "We don't really need to go. I'll tell Brother Ye. We'll just stay here and follow them."
While sending messages, he glanced around and noticed Ning Leyi sneaking around Hua Duoduo in another direction.
Hua Duoduo walked quickly forward, catching up with Tong Wuyu and Ye Sanqing.
Ye Sanqing caught a glimpse of her approaching out of the corner of his eye and immediately said, "Hey? Why do I feel a little dizzy?"
Then it will fall to one side.
Tong Wuyu pulled her back in time, and Hua Duoduo quickly came over to support her on the other side as well, "Miss Ye?"
Ye Sanqing pretended that his legs were weak and stopped talking.
Hua Duoduo and Tong Wuyu exchanged a glance, then called Ye Sanqing's name a few more times to test her. After confirming that she didn't respond, Tong Wuyu said, "Why did you take so long to come? You don't know how annoying Ye Kening was just now. She wouldn't have left if Ye Sanqing hadn't spoken up."
"Ye Kening? Who?" Hua Duoduo frowned.
Ye Sanqing said she was her younger sister.
"Crazy woman! She doesn't acknowledge Wanwan as her good sister, but insists on being sisters with such a despicable person?" Hua Duoduo cursed. The thought of getting revenge for Wanwan and An Yueyuan filled her with excitement, and she didn't hold back her words.
"Who cares who she is? Anyway, she's gone now. Let's hurry up and take her there. Do you know what kind of guy Wanwan met up with today?" Tong Wuyu couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Who knows, it must be some kind of evil spirit," Hua Duoduo said as she helped Tong Wuyu help Ye Sanqing away. She didn't care who the man was, but she was sure Wanwan wouldn't let Ye Sanqing profit from this.
Upon arriving at the villa's entrance, Tong Wuyu glanced inside to confirm that the door was ajar and a key with a numbered tag was hanging on it. She could faintly hear panting sounds coming from inside.
She nodded to Hua Duoduo, and the two of them were about to push Ye Sanqing through the door when they found themselves stuck.
"?" Hua Duoduo thought the door was closed, so she freed one hand to push it, but the door quietly opened wide inwards.
Before she could ask what was going on, a strong force came from behind her, and Ye Sanqing shoved her through the door. She tripped over her own skirt and fell to the ground.
Ye Sanqing turned to look at Tong Wuyu, whose face had turned deathly pale in an instant, and asked, "Miss Tong, is the wine good?"
Before she could react, he pushed Tong Wuyu inside with his other hand.
Ignoring the shouts from the two people inside, Ye Sanqing decisively closed the door, locked it twice, and then removed the key.
[It has to be retro here, otherwise if it's an electronic door or something, I'll have to go through the trouble of finding something to hold it in place.]
"If that's the case, why not just smash it with one punch?" Little Bug said.
"No, no, it's so undignified to damage other people's things." Ye Sanqing smiled and turned to walk towards the lake behind the building.
"How about I go for a swim?"
Ye Sanqing found a grove of trees and squatted down. He heard faint cries of a woman coming from inside and smiled with satisfaction.
