"I need to call Hu Yue when I get back and ask about Song Ke's background!" Song Mengmeng glanced out the car window, her brows furrowed slightly, as if talking to herself, or perhaps discussing it with Hu Da: "I always feel that the aura on that person gives me a sense of déjà vu!"
I must have encountered this somewhere before!
"People from Maoshan!" Hu Da scoffed. Her understanding of the Xuanmen was no less than Hu Yue's. In fact, she herself might not have realized it.
Song Mengmeng tilted her head and glanced at Hu Da. Although she noticed this key point, she did not say anything.
For some reason, she had a feeling that if she brought this up, Hu Da would jump up and turn on her, pull over, and kick her out.
Forget it, it's probably hard to get a taxi right now, I can't afford to mess with them!
Not long after returning home, before Song Mengmeng even thought about going to see Hu Yue, Hu Yue called her first. The conversation, besides what happened that evening, mainly revolved around the final stages of work in Baiyue City.
"What's wrong? You're home now and still not quiet?" Yan Di came out of his study and saw that the little girl who had just put down the phone didn't look too good. He chuckled and walked over to hug her small body.
Even proud and powerful beasts like them have some deeply ingrained habits!
For example, the more they trust and like each other, the more likely they are to snuggle together to exchange their scent. So, Song Mengmeng didn't reject Yan Di's intimate behavior at all. Instead, she readily squeezed into his arms, wrapped her arms around his waist, and rubbed against his chest, whimpering and complaining, "Anyway, I almost got arrested and investigated!"
"You said someone was watching you when you left the set?!" Yan Di didn't pay much attention to other things; he was more concerned about this information that Song Mengmeng had only mentioned casually.
"Mmm." Song Mengmeng nodded affirmatively, but then sighed in frustration, "However, my reaction was still too slow; I didn't see what the other person looked like!"
"Okay, I understand." Yan Di nodded, having already made up his mind, but he didn't forget to comfort the little guy who was snuggling up to him in his arms: "It's okay, you'll definitely be able to catch him next time!"
If he wasn't mistaken, it should be that guy who appeared in Baiyue City before, who followed his little one to the market.
It's good that you're here!
This isn't the first time we've dealt with each other; it's time to put an end to some things!
Yan Di's words of comfort did have some effect. Although the little girl was still not in a high mood, she was at least more energetic than when she first returned.
Knowing that someone was eyeing his little girl, Yama naturally wouldn't sit idly by and wait for his doom.
However, he didn't intend to make a big fuss about it. After Song Mengmeng rested, he quietly sent a message to Gu Qi and also told Hu Da about it.
The nine-tailed fox, whose strength is considered top-tier among powerful demons, should have no problem dealing with this kind of scheme from humans!
At least, it's still possible to accomplish the task of stalling for time!
After a night's rest, Song Mengmeng received the news early the next morning that Yao Anna had regained consciousness in the hospital.
Using the power of the Dream Eater, it's not difficult to alter the memories of a few people. So when Yao Anna met Song Mengmeng, all she remembered was fainting upon entering.
As for the rest...
It's best for ordinary people to forget about it.
"Probably terrorists!" Song Mengmeng tilted her head, her assessment of the question sounding particularly perfunctory.
Although she felt that things weren't so simple, Yao Anna didn't think too deeply about it and quickly changed the subject, focusing the discussion on the missing Fang Wenwen.
“This morning, the police came and asked me about it! They said that only five of us were rescued, and Fang Wenwen is still missing.”
Holding her water glass, Yao Anna's mood appeared somewhat downcast when the topic was brought up.
She didn't like Fang Wenwen, but it didn't come to the point of hiring someone to kill her!
The police officers who came to question her in the morning, one of whom kept subtly hinting at the issue, almost made her lose her temper.
"There are rumors circulating that I killed someone out of love and hatred because Fang Wenwen stole my fiancé and smeared me, so I hired someone to kill her in a fit of rage..."
This is unbelievable! She's even more wronged than Dou E!
Yao Anna clenched her fists and pounded the bed in anger: "I don't like her, but I don't want to ruin my life for a scumbag!"
I really don't know what those people are thinking!
Song Hui, what makes him worth all that I'm willing to sacrifice for?!
I could forgive the money I gave out before as money to support a gigolo, but now, you want me to hire someone to kill someone for a gigolo...
Ha, does he even deserve it?!
However, no matter what the parties involved say, the rumors circulating outside can never be suppressed.
After all, the timing of the event was far too sensitive and coincidental.
So, before Song Mengmeng even left, a second wave of visitors arrived.
Somewhat unexpectedly, the first to arrive regarding this matter were not Fang Wenwen's parents or family members, but someone Yao Anna hadn't anticipated—Song Hui's mother.
"Nana, Auntie was planning to come and see you in the next couple of days, but who would have thought something like this would happen?!"
When I heard you were in trouble, I didn't think of anything else and came to see you first!
Aunt Zhou looked like a very well-dressed woman, the kind of elder who would inspire trust at first glance.
However, now that Yao Anna has almost seen through her true nature, she no longer feels any emotion when facing this elder whom she once trusted and liked the most.
He merely gave a perfunctory smile, replying politely, "I'm fine, just a little dizzy right now, everything else is alright."
"You, no matter how important your work is, you have to take care of your health! Your mother is always so worried about you when she talks about you at home! I watched you grow up. You're a strong-willed child, but sometimes you should know how to show weakness."
"I don't know much about your line of work, but Huihui mentioned it before. She said that you celebrities and actors may seem glamorous, but who knows how much hardship and suffering you actually endure behind the scenes!" Aunt Zhou sighed softly, seemingly oblivious to Yao Anna's implied dismissal. She held Yao Anna's hand more affectionately, like a family elder, her words tinged with deep concern: "You really don't need to work so hard!"
