It wasn't that Song Bao'er was intolerant of others, but rather that she couldn't stand having her limelight stolen by someone else.
Song Bao'er thought that when she first arrived at the cabin, she performed well, doing everything thoughtfully and making people feel comfortable.
Although this was a result of her deliberate performance, it also proved her ability and emotional intelligence, which should attract the attention of some male guests.
To her utter surprise, she didn't win the favor of any of the male guests. Even Qin Che was snatched away by Mu Lingxi.
She refused to believe that she was inferior to Mu Lingxi, who only relied on her looks; this was her pride as a daughter of the Song family.
As Song Bao'er thought this, a plan suddenly formed in her mind, and she spoke to Mu Lingxi, who was eating.
"Lingxi, what did you think of Bo Changling's performance just now? If you were to rate it, what score would you give it?"
As Song Bao'er spoke, she revealed a perfectly timed smile, revealing eight standard teeth—the result of practice.
She asked the question casually, or perhaps on a whim, a hint of gossip on her face, just like a conversation between girlfriends.
However, if it's just a joke between girlfriends, it's a bit inappropriate to say it in this kind of setting.
It's like talking about someone behind their back, but now it's being brought to the forefront, which is a completely different matter.
Mu Lingxi was enjoying her meal. She was eating the braised beef that Bo Changling had brought her. The food was delicious, and she was squinting her eyes like a cat, which made her very pleasing to the eye.
She suddenly heard Song Bao'er's reply, stopped chewing, and looked a little confused.
The viewers had already prepared their food, ready to watch Mu Lingxi's mukbang to help them eat, but unexpectedly Song Bao'er suddenly interrupted.
"What's going on with Song Bao'er, the third female lead? Is she close to the first female lead? These kinds of things are usually private conversations between best friends, right?"
"Could it be that the third female lead has feelings for Bo Changling? She's testing the waters with those words, but I'm also very curious about Mu Lingxi's attitude towards Bo Changling?"
"Okay, it seems Song Bao'er is up to something. Maybe she felt embarrassed because her cooking wasn't good enough? Is she trying to get back at someone else now?"
It has to be said that Song Bao'er is quite good at stirring things up; the moment she opened her mouth, everyone's attention was piqued.
In particular, Yi Changfeng and the others wanted to know what Mu Lingxi thought of Bo Changling, and whether her opinion of Bo Changling had changed because of a meal.
Bo Changling himself was naturally even more nervous. He could tell that Song Bao'er seemed to be stirring up trouble. However, Bo Changling was also very curious about his position in Mu Lingxi's heart.
And so, everyone turned their attention to Mu Lingxi, wanting to know what she was thinking.
Mu Lingxi noticed everyone's gaze, so she put down her chopsticks, sipped her juice, and seemed to be thinking.
Even if a girl does nothing, she is attractive enough. Just sitting there thinking is enough to make people unable to look away.
Mu Lingxi's fair and smooth face had her eyes slightly lowered, and her delicate face looked so soft that one wanted to bite it to see if it was really that soft.
Finally, as if she had thought of something, the girl excitedly spoke.
"I'd give him a 9 out of 10. I'm afraid if I give him one more point, he'll get arrogant. Bo Changling's cooking is so delicious and he's so considerate. Of course, he couldn't be better."
Mu Lingxi's words exploded in Bo Changling's ears. He never expected that he was so good in Mu Lingxi's heart, and he was faintly moved.
Looking at the girl's smug little face, Bo Changling felt his heart burning even hotter, and he wanted to end the show quickly and take the girl home.
Mu Lingxi was quite pleased with herself. She thought her answer was good and that she had thought about it for a long time before coming up with this relatively fair answer.
However, will Song Bao'er stop there? Of course not, what came before was just an appetizer.
"Oh, I see. So what do you think of Yi Changfeng? He was just peeling shrimp for you. If you were to rate him, what score would you give him?"
Song Bao'er's provocation was quite obvious; she was trying to force Mu Lingxi to make a choice ahead of time and prevent Mu Lingxi from continuing to gain the favor of the male guests.
Her question was easy to answer, but no matter how Mu Lingxi answered, it could have a negative impact.
If Mu Lingxi gives Yi Changfeng a low score, Yi Changfeng will naturally be unhappy and will unconsciously distance himself from Mu Lingxi.
If she gave him a high score, Bo Changling would definitely be unhappy. Based on her understanding of Bo Changling, this man was undoubtedly proud.
If Mu Lingxi gives Yi Changfeng a higher evaluation, Bo Changling will definitely not have any further dealings with Mu Lingxi, thus achieving her goal of sowing discord.
If Mu Lingxi were to treat everyone equally, it would naturally cause dissatisfaction among several people. However, if she were to stir up trouble and guide public opinion...
Song Bao'er laughed. She was waiting to see Mu Lingxi make a fool of herself. If Mu Lingxi wanted to steal her thunder, well, that person would have to see if they were lucky enough to do so!
Mu Lingxi was indeed stumped by this question. She didn't think as much as Song Bao'er did; after all, her little head wouldn't allow her to think that far ahead.
"Yi Changfeng, of course he's better too. Oh right, I haven't thanked you yet. Thank you for peeling the shrimp for me."
The girl sincerely thanked the man, and their two equally youthful faces seemed to radiate countless pink bubbles under the lens.
Yi Changfeng suppressed his joy for the time being. Of course he liked Mu Lingxi praising him, but he couldn't let the girl continue.
Yi Changfeng saw through Song Bao'er's provocation. Although he didn't know what else Song Bao'er would say, he was determined not to let her succeed.
"Okay, you're welcome. I know you're thanking me, so let's go eat quickly, otherwise the food will get cold and won't taste good."
Yi Changfeng cleverly interrupted Mu Lingxi's train of thought, preventing her from continuing, and instead diverted the girl's attention.
"Oh, okay."
