Duanmu Qinwu was in a particularly bad mood after being attacked by his own people.

He glanced at the watch on Wang Yan’s wrist and forced a smile. “Wang Yan, it turns out that you’re also a tycoon? I really didn’t notice it when I was having dinner with Liu Li the other day. You hid it so well!”

The emphasized “You hid it so well” had a hidden meaning to it.

He Meng’s ears perked up.

It was not strange that Wang Yan has a girlfriend, they did not tell a single lie, but when she finally heard the name, she could help but be curious.

But she would not casually talk with men, and she continue to roll her eyes with Duanmu Chuge.

Wang Yan then said with a smile: “I seem to have never pretended to be poor, Senior, why did you have such a big misunderstanding?”

Duanmu Qinwu was choked.

“The outfit you wore last time was simply… Hehe, it seems like you’re paying more attention to today’s occasion? That’s right, Liu Li is indeed not as pretty as He Meng.”

Oh?

He was quite accurate in finding the right angle to provoke him?

Wang Yan smiled and raised his eyebrows at He Meng. “Did you hear that? Senior Duanmu is praising you!”

Duanmu Qinwu became even more depressed.

Li Yunyin’s heart instantly thought of these words — leisurely strolling in the courtyard, lifting heavy weight lightly.

When men settled disputes, sometimes they needed to make a fierce decision to completely determine the outcome.

Most of the time, there was no need to make a show of it.

In front of beautiful women, wouldn’t it be equivalent to winning if you beat your opponent to a pulp?

It didn’t exist.

No matter how fierce the cockfights were, people would laugh and as if they were watching a show. Then, they would think that the two of them were idiots. Then, victory was also defeat.

On the other hand, if the audience’s heart was with you, when they thought that you were nicer, even if you were beaten black and blue, defeat was still victory.

You had to know what you wanted.

If you didn’t know the main contradiction, then all the provocations and suppression against your love rival would destroy your own image.

Moreover, the situation now was different from before.

Previously, he was acting as Liu Weilong, because the three of them were classmates. The enemy and friend relationship was clear and simple. Acting for one wave could effectively attack classmate Liu.

Now, it was a one-on-one fight with the audience watching. The situation was complicated, but the contradiction was simple.

As far as Wang Yan was concerned, other than Qinwu, the other three beauties were all targets that he could fight for. Naturally, there was no need to make the situation too intense.

Therefore, Brother Doggie did not intend to show any aggression at all. If Qinwu wanted to make a scene, he could do so. Brother Doggie only needed to respond to the myriad of changes by remaining unchanged.

He had to respond appropriately and show his superiority.

This was the true EQ — doing different things on different occasions, finding the core of the contradiction, and showing different attitudes.

This alone completely separated Wang Yan from the nouveau riche.

People who thought that they could use money to crush all the unscrupulous people did not understand money, nor did they understand human nature.

Wang Yan’s growth was reflected in these little details.

…

He Meng was patted lightly, but she was not in a good mood.

It was actually a failure for her secret admirer to be snatched away by a woman who was not as good as her.

Although she had not thought about how things would turn out with Wang Yan, the princess disease was still there. It was impossible for her to let it go just because of a few words of flattery.

Her expression was therefore still very cold.

“Duanmu, we haven’t seen each other for half a year. You’ve learned how to sow discord. What did you do in college?”

He Meng and Duanmu Chuge were sworn enemies, so she naturally wouldn’t spoil her brother.

Duanmu Qinwu’s smile froze, and his face flushed red.

Knowing shame was a virtue, but it couldn’t make up for his lack of self-awareness.

Up until this moment, Duanmu didn’t realize that Wang Yan was difficult to deal with. He still had a sense of superiority in his heart. It came from his looks and family background. In short, Wang Yan was becoming more and more an eyesore to him.

It wasn’t convenient to use He Meng as an excuse. In his embarrassment, he suddenly thought of another matter.

“Wang Yan, didn’t you say that you wanted to be my brother-in-law and inherit my family’s property? Now that Chuge is here, why don’t you try it? Ha!”

Once he said that, all four of them were shocked!

Li Yunyin knew that it was a joking counterattack, but He Meng and Chuge didn’t know that. They were stunned on the spot.

They couldn’t be bothered to fight anymore and looked at each other.

Wang Zi and Liang Zi, who had come from the next door, admired Wang Yan to the point of prostrating themselves on the ground. How could he say such words in front of his own brother?

Why wasn’t he beaten to death back then…

Swoosh!

All kinds of gazes were fixed on Wang Yan’s face.

There was really no way to explain such a thing.

Even with the thickness of Brother Doggie’s skin, he felt a little embarrassed at this moment.

However, since he saw the Duanmu siblings, the young master was naturally mentally prepared to face everything.

He immediately smiled at Duanmu Chuge. His smile was a little shy, but it was also graceful.

“I’m sorry for making a joke out of you…”

If it was just an apologetic excuse, it was obviously not enough.

What came next was the main point.

“… it’s probably because I had a deep impression of you in high school and fantasized about being your boyfriend, so at that time, my mind went blank and I…”

He paused slightly and laughed self-deprecatingly.

“… Hehe, little boys always have times when they don’t know the immensity of heaven and earth.

Student Duanmu, I hope you don’t mind.

To tell the truth, your figure in the fluttering white dress in your sophomore year was really too dreamy. I wasn’t the only one who was stunned.”

After a series of punches, his expression, tone, and words were all close to the perfection of his current age.

Duanmu Chuge instantly became beautiful and fluttering.

How could she still be angry?!

Instead, she racked her brain to recall which white dress she had worn during her sophomore year?

White dress, my ass!

The one time that Wang Yan had the deepest impression of Duanmu Chuge was when she wore hot pants and a small t-shirt. Her fair legs and tender waist were very hot.

It was just that she liked the light-colored style, so he casually mentioned it.

As for the “fantasied boyfriend” matter…

Well, that was true.

However, there were only a few moments when the thought was similar to “How great would it be if I could have such a sexy and beautiful girlfriend”. It was a momentary feeling that all adolescent boys would have.

To put it more plainly, it was a craving for a good-looking girl’s body.

In the end, Wang Yan’s description made it seem like a particularly beautiful and pure vision…

Best actor Wang, your performance today was also great!

Duanmu Chuge smiled so much that her eyes were curved, and the corners of her mouth could not help but curl up. No matter how she looked at Wang Yan, she felt that he was pleasing to the eyes.

He did not care that his own brother was not on good terms with Gouzi, and she sighed sincerely.

“Why didn’t you tell me when I was in high school? Actually, I’ve been waiting for a mature, humorous, clean, and cool prince to bring me a sweet first love… Let me whisper to you secretly that you’re meeting the standard!!”

Whisper your ass!

I heard everything, okay?!

He Meng was so angry that her face turned green. She was as sullen as how much Duanmu Chuge was elated.

If Wang Yan checked his favorability, he would find that… it was like a waterfall.

However, the young master had already mentally prepared himself, so there was no need to check.

If he wanted to please Duanmu Chuge, he would definitely offend He Meng.

But it didn’t matter. As a tool person, his mission had already been accomplished!

Liu Weilong had already been angered away, so what was your use now?

The useless goddess of first love gritted her teeth as she glared at Duanmu Chuge. At the same time, she chided Wang Yan a hundred times in her heart.

“Should I congratulate you on finally finding your true love? It’s not too late. I’m familiar with Wang Yan, and a scumbag to a scumbag. The two of you are a perfect match.”

“Scumbag? I don’t think so…”

Duanmu Chuge smiled smugly and took the initiative to give Wang Yan a great understanding.

“Don’t tell me you think that because he had a crush on you back then, he can’t admire other girls? I’m not worse than you in any aspect, but my personality is much more cheerful and amiable. Wang Yan’s taste in beauty is as good as his clothes!”

Qinwu heard this and felt that something was wrong.

F*ck!

So you’re really here to be my brother-in-law?!

And my sister was actually infatuated with you?!

Why was life so magical?!

Being infatuated wasn’t necessary. It was mainly because He Meng was present.

Without a sworn enemy, Chuge would definitely stand on the same side as her brother. It was impossible for her to find Wang Yan so pleasing to the eye.

Of course, the young master today was indeed good.

His image, temperament, clothing, manner, and demeanor were all top-notch. He even overshadowed Duanmu Qinwu, the Commander-in-Chief.

One would die when comparing with people, and good would be thrown away if comparing goods.

Wang Yan was indeed a “bug” at this age. He was just like Terence Tao, who had beaten up the math prodigy five years ago, and won without any suspense.

He Meng was full of anger. She planned to throw a crab at Gouzi’s face and then turn around to leave.

However, at this moment, the best actor Wang, who had just finished flirting, suddenly jumped back.

“For record, I have a girlfriend now.”

Wang Yan spoke with a serious expression. His small expression was sincere, upright, and pure, and his tone was gentle and calm.

“What I said before was from the bottom of my heart, but it only represents the high school me, who yearns for better life.

Student Duanmu, you and He Meng are the representatives of a better life in Experimental High School.

Whether it was words of anger, jokes, or truth, it’s all in the past.

Looking back, I feel that being able to study in a high school is a rare fate. You guys have made my memories especially precious.

Looking forward, I sincerely hope to become friends with you guys. We don’t have to help each other, we just have to put aside those materialistic things and cherish the legacy of those innocent years.”

The three beauties were moved collectively, and Duanmu Chuge’s heart was filled with bitterness.

F*ck!

Was there honey in your mouth?!

This was not a confession, but it was better than any confession.

Who dared to confess to two great beauties who refused to give in to each other at the same time?

Wang Yan did.

His positioning was precise, sense of propriety was clear, style was lofty, and intentions were elegant and pure.

His speech was 70% sincere and 30% performance. The core was Wang Yan’s true understanding — he cherished everything, so he had the strength to move people’s hearts.

A 19-year-old girl was too taken in by this.

He Meng’s favorability towards him increased, and her eyes were shining.

Duanmu Chuge was really a little infatuated. She felt that she had never met such a reliable peer like Wang Yan.

Li Yunyin felt sorry for herself and finally began to envy Liu Li’s luck.

Why was it that the one chasing me is Duanmu Qinwu, the narcissistic and self centered person, while your boyfriend was so outstanding?!

The Gemini duo was dumbstruck and began to doubt their own intelligence — how did the two of them get all those girlfriends in the past?!

The young master had a good show and turned it into a big show. He turned around, picked up a glass of wine, and took a light sip.

“Kill a man with every ten steps, and leave no stone unturned!”

The one being praised was Brother Doggie…”

Just as he was enjoying himself, the people in the middle of the small talk finally dispersed. That Young Master Wang was actually walking over with a glass of wine in his hand.

In fact, even now, Wang Yan still couldn’t correctly understand the He family’s position in Gu Jiao, and He Meng’s popularity in the high-level circles.

Therefore, he didn’t realize that as a little expert in pretense who didn’t fit in with the traditional circles, it was fated that he would be forced to open his business.

The test, in fact, had just begun.
