Chapter 791: 791
Yue Qingqing looked at Zhang Caidie, completely baffled.
“I don’t quite understand.”
Zhang Caidie’s face was full of grievance, “What do you an?”
“We were clearly discussing the answer, weren’t we? Why do you always feel like others are targeting you? Maybe in your world, everything revolves around you, you are the electricity, you are the light, you are the only myth? It’s not that I’m targeting you, but whenever soone presents a different opinion, you take it as an attack.”
“Wake up, okay? Everyone is busy, no one has that much ti to focus on you.”
Gu Tiantian felt like applauding Yue Qingqing’s speech, while Zhang Caidie’s face imdiately turned pale.
“How could you say that about ?”
Yue Qingqing gave her a slight smile, “Look, here it cos again. I simply told the truth and you take it as an attack on you.”
Wu Manbai and her husband exchanged glances, both quite surprised, not expecting Yue Qingqing to be so direct.
But—
She was right—
Everyone present had enough insight to see through Zhang Caidie’s tricks.
Naturally, people want to maintain a semblance of dignity in social interactions, and it’s not good to fall out with each other over non-essential matters.
This is all the more true in front of the caras.
No matter how unpleasant things get, one still has to hold it in and put on a facade.
Zhang Caidie precisely grasped this ntality, often playing the victim or the innocent lotus in shows or drama crews.
It always worked like a charm, rarely failing.
Fellow actresses who worked with her were often furious inside but had to play along with Zhang Caidie and put on a show of sisterhood on the surface.
But they didn’t expect Yue Qingqing, an outsider to the circle, to disregard so-called courtesy and bluntly point out the problem.
Gu Tiantian felt like all the fatigue from a day’s work had evaporated, leaving only a delightfully cheerful mood.
What kind of fairy girl was this, saying everything she wanted to say but dared not?
Ou Chi opened his mouth to say sothing, but Gong Qiming watched him with a smile.
“A topic between two girls, what insight is the senior Ou Chi planning to share?”
The man had no choice but to close his mouth, unable to defend Zhang Caidie.
Zhang Caidie’s eyes darkened bit by bit, “Since you claim to be objective, why don’t you analyze what’s really going on?”
Yue Qingqing spread the amusent park map out on the stone table in the center.
“Everyone, look in the direction of six o’clock on this map.”
The map showed three attractions when looking in the direction of six o’clock—
The carousel.
The bumper cars.
And—the ghost house.
Yue Qingqing’s pale fingertips traced a circle over these three locations, finally resting on the ghost house.
“I believe this is where we ultimately need to go.”
Since the facade had been torn away, Zhang Caidie couldn’t be bothered to pretend anymore.
She scoffed, “You see a 6 and think it ans the six o’clock direction? Such a wild imagination.”
Yue Qingqing wasn’t annoyed, “Of course, there are also the clues from the nursery rhy and the mask. Miss Gu, please recite the nursery rhy you found.”
Gu Tiantian pouted at Yue Qingqing, “Why so formal by calling Miss Gu? Just call Tiantian.”
There’s an aura between people, so might not get along after years, while others click instantly.
Gu Tiantian liked the way Yue Qingqing calmly retorted.
Gentle knife—each cut deadly, particularly effective against the pretentious innocents.
Gu Tiantian cleared her throat and recited the nursery rhy.
When night falls, all is still,
Two moons hanging over willow trees,
In the dead of night, the ghosts do thrill,
Scattering far, with no ease.
Gu Tiantian’s voice was sweet and ethereal, but when she read the brief nursery rhy, everyone had goosebumps.
Gu Tiantian couldn’t resist comnting, “There’s no escaping it; this is definitely the ghost house!”
Before, everyone’s thoughts had been led astray by Zhang Caidie, wondering if it was so bizarre theatrical play.
But now, with Yue Qingqing pointing out the ghost house, the atmosphere turned chilling, sending shivers down everyone’s spine.
Yue Qingqing held up the red mask, covering half her face.
“When I arrived, I happened to see the sign for the ghost house, which seems to have a the called ‘No-Face.’ I guess this mask must be a prop from inside.”
