At a crucial moment, the Yama Emperor, this tool, was dragged out and used once again.
Although the girl used it and then threw it away, Yan Di still worked hard without complaint and quickly gave her a reply—the abandoned house where they filmed before was still there, and it wasn't even far from the film studio where Song Mengmeng and the others were now.
Because of that accident, the abandoned house has now become a very famous adventure destination, and many suspense movies and TV series have been filmed here.
"Want to go see it?" Yan Di listened to the little girl's muttering complaints on the other end of the phone, not finding it annoying, but rather amusing. His original world was gray, still, like a lifeless pool of stagnant water. Day after day, year after year, monotonous and boring.
But this little cub in front of him was like a ray of light, becoming the only vibrant thing in his stagnant inner world.
He enjoyed this feeling and really liked it.
“But the crew said we can’t just come and go as we please!” Song Mengmeng was in a dilemma. Leaving the crew now was definitely out of the question, since the crew had its own rules, and it would be inappropriate for her to break them so soon after joining the crew. But if she waited until her scenes were finished before leaving, it would be difficult for her to come back and contact Su Lingge.
"Do you want me to help you?" Yan Di spoke up at the right time, offering a gentle suggestion.
"No, if you come over, it will be too noisy and will alert other people!" Admittedly, Song Mengmeng was tempted for a moment, but she quickly calmed down and shook her head to refuse the other party's suggestion.
Given Yan Di's status, while he could easily take her out of the film crew if he came, it would immediately attract the attention of the entire crew.
In particular, the evil spirit that was clearly already on guard.
What if it scares them away?!
"Then I'll do it quietly, without alerting anyone." Yan Di suppressed a laugh, trying his best to match the girl's mood: "How about I come to see you tonight?"
"Okay, okay!" Hearing Yan Di say that, Song Mengmeng finally put aside her original worries and accepted Yan Di's help without any guilt.
There's nothing to hide or avoid, and naturally, nothing to be ashamed of.
In Song Mengmeng's view, Yan Di was her partner, so helping each other was the most natural thing to do. Why should she be coy?
Having arranged a meeting time with Yan Di, Song Mengmeng didn't waste any more time or words, and decisively hung up the phone, cutting off contact with the "tool" Yan Di.
Although Song Mengmeng's role wasn't large, she was always by Bai Wei's side as the Imperial Concubine. Because Bai Wei had a lot of scenes to film today, Song Mengmeng stayed by Bai Wei's side to cooperate with the performance, which naturally led to her having a lot of contact with the other female lead, Su Lingge.
Perhaps because of the test the night before, Su Lingge was very cautious today, and the most direct way she did this was to avoid Song Mengmeng throughout the entire process.
If it were anyone else, they would probably not force themselves to approach her because of their pride, but Song Mengmeng didn't have so many concerns.
She was like a mischievous child who couldn't be happy unless she was being naughty. The more Su Lingge avoided her, the more she tried to get closer to her.
In the end, in order to get Su Lingge's attention, he would even take the initiative to happily go over and say hello.
If Bai Wei hadn't come to the rescue in time, Su Lingge's mentality would have almost collapsed.
Looking at the slightly smug girl, Bai Wei gave a helpless wry smile: "Why do you have to pick a fight with her now? What if you anger her and she hurts you?"
After learning that Su Lingge in front of her had a problem, Bai Wei was in a state of high tension whenever she was around her, wishing she could stay as far away from her as possible; but Song Mengmeng in front of her seemed to be afraid that the other party would come to cause trouble for her, rushing towards that bad thing with a state of "I'm going to cause trouble"!
"I'm not afraid of her." Song Mengmeng turned around and thanked Bai Wei, who was protecting her, earnestly before explaining to her in a serious tone, "My purpose in coming here is to get rid of this evil spirit!"
This is not just about filling her stomach; more importantly, as a Pixiu, warding off evil is her mission and a task she must solve after facing such a situation!
The evil spirit in front of us is not very powerful right now, but as time goes by, it will definitely become stronger and more difficult to deal with. Correspondingly, more innocent lives will be harmed by it!
"But it's too dangerous!" Bai Wei frowned with worry, recalling what she had witnessed before. The young girl in front of her was so delicate and frail, as if a gust of wind could blow her away. How could she be suited for such a dangerous job?!
After Bai Wei established a connection with the infant spirit, she also began to try to understand this matter. She also learned that, in addition to ordinary people like them, there was another kind of existence similar to exorcists. Those people wandered the world, specifically looking for such evil spirits to eliminate!
So she didn't hesitate and simply told Song Mengmeng about it: "Mengmeng, I think we can go find an exorcist!"
I've heard that those people are professionals at dealing with the kind of evil spirits you described. It's much safer to go to them than to rush in and try to handle it yourself like this.
"Okay." Song Mengmeng thought for a moment, but ultimately swallowed back the explanation that was on the tip of her tongue. They were from completely different worlds, and too much explanation would not only fail to reassure Bai Wei, but would only make her more worried.
Sometimes, not knowing is a blessing.
Since she had already tested the waters in the morning, Song Mengmeng didn't cause any more trouble in the afternoon. She obediently cooperated with Bai Wei to finish filming the remaining scenes, and then they went back to the hotel together.
Thinking about her earlier agreement with Emperor Yan, Song Mengmeng returned to her room early. She absentmindedly flipped through the script in her hand while occasionally glancing at the sounds coming from the room.
However, to Song Mengmeng's dismay, even with such vigilance, the man still appeared abruptly and naturally on the single sofa chair not far from her bed without her permission.
This time, Yan Di wasn't wearing his ever-present gold-rimmed glasses, so Song Mengmeng only needed to turn her head to clearly see his gentle, deep eyes gazing intently at her. His deep voice sounded like it was wrapped in sweet honey, instantly making Song Mengmeng forget her already small sense of frustration.
She cheered and jumped out of bed naturally and skillfully, throwing herself into Yan Di's arms, beginning to complain softly, "Why did you take so long? I've been waiting for you for ages!"
