Jiang Baige hurried back to the hotel, but when she arrived at the door of her residence, she couldn't find the room card. She had used it when she went upstairs just now, but she just stuffed it in her pocket and didn't know where it was.

But she rang the doorbell and knocked on the door, but there was no response.

Her heart sank to the point of sinking to the bottom. She was about to go back to the front desk to find someone to open the door when the room card fell from somewhere on her body and landed on the thick dark red carpet with almost no sound.

Jiang Baige quickly bent down, picked up the room card, and opened the door.

She rushed into the room, but before she could look around, she saw Yu Xiaobei, who was so big, sitting on the sofa facing the door, with a dull look in her eyes. When she saw Jiang Baige coming in, she didn't react at all, just staring at her, which made Jiang Baige a little scared.

"Xiao Bei...you are home, why didn't you open the door just now? Also, I called you so many times, why didn't you answer? Your phone was turned off before, did something happen..."

Jiang Baige breathed a sigh of relief, but was not completely relaxed, so her previous panic state turned into a stream of words, which hit Yu Xiaobei like a machine gun.

But Yu Xiaobei seemed to be wearing an iron vest and had no reaction.

Thinking of clothes, Jiang Baige immediately shut up, walked a few steps to Yu Xiaobei, sniffed left and touched right: her hair was dry, and although her body was mixed with the smell of men's perfume, there was no smell of the shower gel they shared, which meant that she probably did not take a shower.

Not taking a shower is a good thing: it almost proves that she has not been physically assaulted, or at least has not had time to be assaulted; and if there is a small probability that she has been assaulted, the evidence is still preserved and the criminal can be brought to justice.

Jiang Baige half-knelt in front of Yu Xiaobei: "Xiaobei, what's wrong with you? Why don't you speak? You are so worried. If there is anything you dare not say to Xiaodai, you can tell me. I swear, I will keep it a secret for you."

Still no reply.

Jiang Baige felt a little frustrated. She was not angry because Yu Xiaobei ignored her, but she really didn't know what to do next.

She couldn't help but blame the "system" that allowed her to be reborn. Why couldn't it give her a golden finger?

She has been forced to live her life again, and apart from some partial memories, she has to rely on her own guessing and reasoning for everything else... Aren't you afraid of tiring herself to death?

"Hey, Xiao Bei, if you don't say anything, I really can't help you... Then don't say anything, I'll ask you, and you can just nod or shake your head, okay?"

Yu Xiaobei finally responded and nodded.

"Is it related to Shen Po?"

nod.

Jiang Baige's heart tightened again: "Did he... do... anything to you?"

Shake his head.

Shaking head? Jiang Baige was stunned for a moment, then she realized that Yu Xiaobei was not shaking her head, but shaking her whole body. Her shaking head was not a negative "no", but a "no, no, no" to refuse to recall.

Jiang Baige quickly stood up and hugged the frail Yu Xiaobei. But Yu Xiaobei suddenly went crazy and pushed Jiang Baige away. She opened her mouth and screamed "Ah-ah-ah", but the sound was very low, without weight or strength, and almost not like human words, but more like the cry of an animal.

"Xiao Bei, Xiao Bei, it's okay, it's okay..." Jiang Baige didn't dare to get close to her anymore, but comforted her softly.

Yu Xiaobei came out of that state and returned to her previous silence, which scared Jiang Baige. She had many horrible guesses in her mind, but none of them could be confirmed now.

After a while, Yu Xiaobei suddenly started crying. At first it was silent, with her mouth wide open and tears falling, then she began to make primitive noises, and then she returned to her human state, crying loudly like a child.

There is no doubt that she suffered a great injustice.

But being able to cry is the first step to getting better. Jiang Baige was glad that he stood by her when she collapsed, so that she did not fall into the situation of being isolated and helpless in her previous life.

They should shift their focus at this time.

Jiang Baige sat next to Yu Xiaobei, but kept some distance from her so as not to provoke her anymore.

"I'm a little hungry. Are you hungry? Let's order some takeout?" After saying that, Jiang Baige started to list the names of dishes. Not only hot dishes, but also drinks, cakes, ice cream... all kinds of internet celebrity products from internet celebrity stores.

Yu Xiaobei finally stopped crying. She said, "I want to eat the Loyal Dog Cake."

Loyal Dog Cake is a Russian dessert made to commemorate a brave little dog. Russian desserts are famous for being solid and cloyingly sweet. Ordinary people may not be able to finish two bites, but it is very suitable for people under great pressure.

Jiang Baige ordered one without hesitation. She could feel that Yu Xiaobei's mental state was better - this girl was stronger than she thought, maybe she had been supporting herself for too long.

Now is a good time. Jiang Baige was thinking about the entry point for the inquiry, but before she could think it through, the doorbell rang.

The cake was delivered so quickly? It was less than half an hour after she placed the order.

Jiang Baige was about to open the door when she rang the phone. The takeaway food in an apartment-style hotel cannot be delivered to the floors above the building. It is usually delivered to the front desk, which then contacts the residents because the delivery man cannot get on the elevator.

Sure enough, after the doorbell rang, the sound of the door lock opening followed.

"Why are you back?" Jiang Baige looked at Tao Mindai in surprise.

Tao Mindai ignored her and muttered, "I was so angry that I forgot I still had the room card."

She rushed directly to Yu Xiaobei and said, "You are at home! I called you but you didn't answer! What on earth are you doing? Shen Po gave you a chance to audition, why didn't you go? You made him miss the appointment with the crew, and he took the blame for you, and now he turns around and scolds me!"

Yu Xiaobei opened her eyes wide, her eyes full of confusion - Jiang Baige didn't have the same wide eyes, but she also had the same confusion: What was going on?

"Yu Xiaobei, let me tell you! Shen Po gave me an ultimatum today. If you don't go to the crew at the agreed time tomorrow, he won't introduce you to any auditions anymore!"

Tao Mindai's chest rose and fell violently. Jiang Baige was afraid that the two would quarrel, so she quickly pulled Tao Mindai back: "Xiao Dai, don't be anxious... There may be some misunderstanding here. Listen to what Xiao Bei says first..."

"Misunderstanding? What misunderstanding? She has been pampered since she was a child. Everyone dotes on her and praises her. She gets everything she wants. She says she has dreams, but she can't even find a job! Now she complains about running to two more crews and she's tired and exhausted... Yu Xiaobei, I'm talking to you, why are you so quiet!"

Jiang Baige took a half step forward and stood in front of Yu Xiaobei: "Xiao Dai, what you said is a bit too much..."

At this time, she was Jiang Baige, who was thirty-four or thirty-five years old and caring for the younger generation.

But just when she wanted to say something more, her sleeve was pulled. She turned to look at Xiao Bei, who gently shook her head at her.
