Chapter 573: The Atmosphere Instantly Turned Female-Oriented
"Sis, what are you doing?"
Watching Reba head straight to the hotel room as soon as she arrived, yank open her suitcase, and pull out a bottle of Yunnan Baiyao inside, her assistant was a little puzzled.
Coming here to find Brother Dou Xiao Bai — surely she's not planning to find a place to practice martial arts today?
But Reba dropped this line: "If that Mencius Yi really gets shameless later, this is for her."
Assistant:???
Wait — is she really this beautiful AND kind-hearted? Even prepared medicine for bruises and injuries for the other woman?
Apparently sensing her assistant's confusion, Reba added another explanation: "If she gets hit in the face, I can't exactly hold up Da Bai and the others' filming."
Mm. Seems like there's nothing wrong with that.
But the fact that she's gearing up for a fight IS the biggest problem!
The assistant jolted and hurriedly tried to talk her down: "No, sis, arguing is one thing — we can just tear into that shameless little bitch in words, but we absolutely cannot get physical!"
Hearing this, Reba shook her head, lips pressed together: "I've been tearing into her for years now — what's it gotten me? Time to hit them with something ruthless!"
The assistant was silent for several seconds, then couldn't help asking: "And what if she calls the police?"
Reba: "... Whatever, I'll keep it ready. I'm dragging Da Bai over later — he's not allowed to go anywhere tonight!"
Ding-dong~
The moment she finished speaking, Bai Liang's message arrived, asking Reba if she wanted to grab dinner together — a group dinner with Wu Jing and the others tonight.
"Sis, are you going?"
"Of course I'm going! I'm his girlfriend!" Reba set down the Yunnan Baiyao and pulled out some hangover pills from her suitcase — she had come thoroughly prepared!
She needed both the thunderbolt strike AND to take good care of Da Bai. A drinking session — she'd already seen it coming.
Once she knew Wu Jing was here, she knew Bai Liang was definitely going to drink hard tonight.
Watching all this, the assistant sighed with feeling: "Sis, I can't even imagine how you'd lose!"
From her perspective, their own Sister Reba was practically the perfect partner.
Pretty, great figure, carries herself with presence out in the world, yet so gentle at home — even down to the little details, thinking of everything. Sure, preparing Yunnan Baiyao for other women is a bit over the top, but hey — is she thorough or what?
Of course, Reba herself knew she still had her "flaws."
For instance, being too obsessed with cleanliness.
After all, every time she made Bai Liang go wash up properly, and if she wasn't satisfied, he'd have to do it again.
Just looking at this one point, she really was a bit of a taskmaster — adding a lot of extra work out of nowhere.
Sometimes when the mood suddenly struck, they'd have to pause midway to deal with personal hygiene... very mood-killing.
But this really was hard to change — being clean wasn't a fault! At most it could only count as a touch of OCD.
Luckily, Bai Liang had always been very tolerant of this "flaw" of hers, and had never said anything about it.
Originally Reba hadn't really thought of this as a flaw either, but now she suddenly had a bit of an epiphany... damn it, there wouldn't be some shameless little bitch out there who DIDN'T practice hygiene, would there?!
Judging by how Mencius Yi had thrown all shame to the wind in front of her today, Reba had reason to suspect she'd be willing to suck on anything, anytime... Sure, this thought was a bit vicious, but she really had been thrown off her game by that little hometown girl Na Zha, and was now indiscriminately venting her fury on every little bitch who appeared before her!
Little bitch — oh wait, Meng Jie was also preparing some things at this very moment.
In today's first clash, apart from winning a small edge at the very start by shamelessly clinging to Bai Liang's arm and refusing to let go, Meng Jie had basically suffered a total defeat.
Although Reba was somewhat surprised that Meng Jie's death-glare expression looked exactly like Na Zha's from a few years back, as long as the other woman didn't pull that "I'll go down with you" move, she wasn't afraid in the slightest.
If the real Gulina Zha couldn't pull it off, a knockoff version naturally couldn't either!
So when they left, it became Reba clinging to Bai Liang — extremely intimate — because by then Meng Jie had already been thoroughly crushed by her for one round.
Of course, although Meng Jie was a bit of a weakling, she was still pretty resilient.
Even though she couldn't win a head-on catfight at all, she still relied on her own "smarts" to launch a sneak attack.
This was the truth behind what those paparazzi saw — Meng Jie suddenly taking advantage of Reba having her back turned, then stealing a kiss from Bai Liang.
Because she couldn't win head-on, she had no choice but to pull these kinds of edgy, shady moves.
At this moment, Meng Jie was gnashing her teeth, looking as if she wanted to put on a very fierce, very scary expression.
At first glance it was still pretty intimidating — after all, she did have a bit of a "bad woman" look to her — but actually, she looked more like a bad woman with a cold face. Deliberately baring her teeth like this was actually a downgrade, like a little house cat who'd had her food stolen and couldn't snatch it back.
House cats are like that — even if a stronger cat steals their food, they can still eat in the end; treats, canned food, whatever, they can still eat happily.
But precisely because of this, they don't have much instinct to defend their "food" — when another cat swipes a paw, they run away fast.
That was how it used to be.
But now Meng Jie declared she was going to take back everything that belonged to her.
The atmosphere instantly turned into a female-oriented novel!
And sure enough, the "wicked" best friend who'd come up with bad ideas was already in position~
Following right behind and returning to the hotel, Wang Churan had changed into a white dress, arms crossed, expression quite composed on her face — that confident look as if she were a reborn female Zhuge.
Meng Jie had been putting on her fierce-cute act for a while, her mind full of how she should fight against the "evil new Jiang bad woman," but her brain really wasn't up to the task.
After all, she couldn't even beat Na Zha, that "arrogant new Jiang bad woman"...
It wasn't that she hadn't come up with ideas, but with the brain circuits she had, the moves she came up with might not actually work...
But they would definitely be hilarious!
If she really used them, she might just kill Reba laughing.
That was the only option when there was no option~
In the end, she turned her gaze to Wang Churan — after all, Meng Jie knew that while her best friend looked like a little white flower, she was actually a sneaky little green tea bitch~
Asking her was definitely the right call!
Wang Churan:??? Have I really become the third evil woman?
Thinking about it this way... oh no, aren't the two of them basically villains now?!
The two Misses hurriedly regrouped and sorted things out again, and Meng Jie actually raised a rather tricky angle.
What "childhood sweetheart can't beat the newcomer" plotline—sweep the other party straight into the trash heap.
But Wang Churan spotted the flaw in it, pointing out that Meng Jie knew Dou Xiao Bai earlier, so she was the "childhood sweetheart," and Reba was the newcomer.
Meng Jie:. Huh? Is that how it is?
When it came to this sort of thing, the efficiency of the younger Misses clearly couldn't compare with that of a more mature Miss.
Reba had her medicine all ready over there, yet the two of them were still doing their Makka Pakka routine, dragging their feet and never getting to the main point.
"I'm going to find Little Hedgehog!"
After deliberating for ages without coming up with a good plan, Meng Jie chose the give-up-and-give-in route—she was going to just throw herself at Bai Liang and cry.
She didn't necessarily have to actually cry it out; either way, today she was going to cling to Bai Liang no matter what. If Reba had the nerve to do her little hedgehog right in front of her, let her try!
This idea, which seemed to have crawled straight out of some brain-dead forum, gave Wang Churan a headache just hearing it.
But then she remembered it was Meng Jie, and figured it was fine again.
It had a certain missing-brainstem beauty to it.
"We can't brute-force this. The other side is an old woman, very experienced. If we rush in blindly, we won't stand a chance." Wang Churan, born in '99, felt that calling someone born in '92 an "old woman" posed no problem whatsoever.
If she'd held it in her mother's belly just a little longer, she might've even become a post-2000 kid!
Mm. Held in for about eleven months—she was born in January of '99.
Meng Jie, however, didn't notice the "we" in Wang Churan's words, and instead hurriedly blurted out, "Churan, teach me."
Wang Churan calmly reached out a hand, telling her not to panic. "The player is blind, the bystander sees clearly. I don't even know what you're rushing for."
"Churan, how about you say something a normal person would say." Meng Jie tugged at her hand and said earnestly—this time she didn't stubbornly insist she was very smart.
