Background / History
Meeting Lu Xuanran
Xia Wang met Lu Xuanran in a psychiatric hospital. According to Bo Yizhou, Xia Wang convinced him that he was an immortal who had descended to the mortal world for training. He persuaded Lu Xuanran to serve him for two months, promising to take him along to become an immortal after recovering 141.
Very few people knew about the deception; Bo Yizhou learned of it by accident. Upon hearing the story, Gu Wancheng concluded that Xia Wang had something to hold over Lu Xuanran 141.
Concealed Relationship
After arranging to explain a misunderstanding to Lu Keran, Lu Xuanran warned Xia Wang to “watch yourself.” Xia Wang responded with confusion and profanity 43.
Lu Xuanran subsequently explained that the minor celebrity rumored to be his lover was actually Xia Wang’s. He showed Lu Keran their chat history as evidence. When Lu Keran used the phone to send hostile messages, Xia Wang recognized that he was the one typing 45.
Ten-Year Pact and Hospitalization
Xia Wang and Lu Xuanran later attended an arranged fight connected to a ten-year pact. They had agreed not to bring anyone, but, according to Lu Keran, the opposing side did not honor that agreement. Both men were beaten badly enough to require hospitalization; Xia Wang suffered a broken rib 141.
Personality
Xia Wang is capable of elaborate deception: his invented story about being an immortal successfully won Lu Xuanran’s belief and service. His messages to Lu Xuanran are blunt and profane, particularly when he receives unexplained warnings or repeated smiling images 43 45 141.
His participation in the arranged fight shows a reckless streak. Lu Keran openly ridicules both men for behaving like delinquents and getting themselves hospitalized 141.
