"Are you going out to eat, Sister Weiwei?"
Before Bai Wei and the others could react, Su Lingge had already walked over first, her smile gentle and natural, a stark contrast to the cold attitude she had encountered at the film studio.
"I happen to be alone, how about we go together?"
Her attitude was very casual. Although she said it was a request, her tone didn't convey any sense of request at all; instead, it carried a hint of coercion that left no room for refusal.
"Okay." Before Bai Wei could speak, Song Mengmeng had already agreed to Su Lingge's suggestion. She even waved her little hand at Su Lingge, her happy little face was very infectious.
Because of her infectious enthusiasm, the initially awkward atmosphere dissipated. The three people, who were originally unrelated, walked out of the hotel amicably and went together to a relatively nice tea restaurant nearby.
Song Mengmeng sat opposite Su Lingge. From the moment she sat down, her gaze remained fixed on Su Lingge's face. Even when she was listening to Bai Wei's suggestion to order food, she never completely looked away.
The little girl observed very carefully, her curiosity intense and undisguised. But it was precisely this attentiveness that made Su Lingge somewhat uncomfortable.
She turned her head, somewhat puzzled, glanced at Bai Wei, and after thinking for a moment, couldn't help but ask Song Mengmeng tentatively, "What are you looking at?"
"It's really beautiful." Song Mengmeng narrowed her eyes, not hiding her praise. She tilted her head, but her next sentence made Su Lingge, who was sitting in front of her, change her expression immediately: "It must have taken a lot of time to make such a skin, right?"
Su Lingge instinctively wanted to get up and run away, but looking at the little girl in front of her who seemed to pose almost no threat, she felt somewhat unwilling.
Perhaps she didn't actually see through her true form; it was just a coincidence?
Thinking of this possibility, Su Lingge quickly calmed down. Facing Song Mengmeng's smile, she forced herself to remain calm and continued to sit steadily opposite Song Mengmeng: "Some adjustments are unavoidable for our group. But Mengmeng, you're so cute, you definitely won't need them."
She naturally shifted the focus from Song Mengmeng's question to the now commonplace topic of cosmetic surgery in the entertainment industry.
That's a reasonable explanation.
Song Mengmeng nodded and didn't ask any more questions. Just then, the dishes they ordered were brought up by the waiter, and the three of them naturally turned their attention to the meal.
Everything that followed unfolded peacefully and uneventfully. Until Song Mengmeng and Bai Wei returned to their hotel room, no more dramatic events occurred.
The moment the door closed, Bai Wei finally relaxed, letting out a long breath and forgetting all about her image. She collapsed heavily onto the hotel bed, feeling completely drained.
"Take a break, I'm exhausted!" Bai Wei muttered, then turned to look at Song Mengmeng, who had followed suit and collapsed onto the other side of the bed. "Mengmeng, didn't you say she was dangerous? Why did you insist on having dinner with her today?"
God knows she was terrified!
In the past, she would have scoffed at such strange things, but after seeing her own little infant spirit, she no longer thought that these claims were just nonsense!
Moreover, since Mengmeng is so capable, the fact that she treats Su Lingge so seriously means that Su Lingge is definitely not as simple as she appears to be.
"I want to see what she really is." Song Mengmeng didn't hide anything from Bai Wei, mainly because she wanted to get more information about Su Lingge from Bai Wei.
"Her malice level was off the charts, and her evil aura was especially obvious! I originally thought she was just a demon in human skin, but after I got to know her, I found that things were not that simple."
Song Mengmeng got up somewhat dejectedly, sat cross-legged on the bed, and let out a big sigh.
If it were the work of evil spirits, she could have just swallowed this guy whole, eaten her fill, and been perfectly fine! But after she actually came into contact with Su Lingge, she realized that this meal, though seemingly simple, was not so easy to actually eat.
To put it simply, what she is facing now is the relationship between a parasite and its host.
Although she didn't know how the evil spirit, as a parasite, had combined with 'Su Lingge,' as the host, it was now clear that 'Su Lingge's' soul, as the main body, was so weak that it was almost dissipating, yet there was still a pure part left in her soul!
Because of this part, even if she wanted to cut the Gordian knot now, she couldn't.
Song Mengmeng habitually puffed out her cheeks, thinking about the meaningful smile that someone had given her when they saw her off to the car...
Hmph, that wicked beast must have discovered it a long time ago, but it didn't tell her!
She even said goodbye to him happily back then, promising to go back and be with him in a few days!
"Sister Weiwei, are you familiar with that Su Lingge?" Taking a deep breath, Song Mengmeng had no choice but to change her strategy and begin to untangle the mess in front of her step by step.
"We're fairly familiar with each other!" Bai Wei paused for a moment, thought carefully, and then said, "We debuted around the same time, and we were signed to the same company before."
Later, I switched to Dixing and we lost contact with each other for more than a year.
I'm not entirely sure what happened in between, but her rise to fame was very sudden. Almost overnight, she appeared out of nowhere in front of everyone and immediately won everyone's favor and support.
However, when we met again after that, she had really changed a lot!
She wasn't as aloof and unapproachable as she is now. She had a great personality, was very lively and cheerful. Once, I went to an audition with her and we were rejected seven or eight times. I couldn't help but cry, but she still managed to comfort me.
But this time when we met, she seemed like a completely different person.
“Then it must have happened during the year or so that you were separated!” Song Mengmeng nodded. With this analysis, her focus narrowed down considerably!
At least there's been some progress!
As for what happens next...
After thinking for a moment, Song Mengmeng finally took out her phone from her bag, swiped through her contacts, and pressed the button heavily, as if venting her anger, on the top-pinned contact, "Bad Beast"!
