She practically crashed into Pei Ran and hugged him. Pei Ran took a step back, then smiled helplessly and hugged her back.
Guo Wenyuan finally calmed down, and when he turned around, he saw this scene.
Lao Guo: ...I feel like crying again.
Ye Cang stood there for a long time before finally unable to hold back and said, "Hey! There's a perfectly healthy person right here! Can't you all see him?"
Chu Meibo seemed not to hear her, raised her hand to look at her watch: "We need to hurry, Xiaxia still has to go to the celebration party later!"
Lao Guo: "Oh right! Wait a minute, I'll go and bring in the cake and champagne now."
Pei Ran: "Okay, stop crying now, let's cut the cake."
Xia Shiyu wiped away her tears: "Okay."
Ye Cang, who was ignored, said: "...Hey."
However, the group had already walked out the door chatting and laughing. Ye Cang watched their backs with a sense of sullenness. Although he wasn't a contestant this time, he had been working very hard as a mentor.
What kind of friends are these?!
A sudden hug made him swallow all the words he was about to say.
Shen Huai leaned close to his ear and whispered, "You've worked hard. I'll be waiting for you to come home."
All the frustration in Ye Cang's heart was dispelled by his words, and she hugged him tightly in return: "Mm."
The lights in the dressing room fell on the two of them, creating a warm and cozy atmosphere.
Just as Ye Cang was about to say something more heartwarming, the door was pushed open again, and four big shots cheerfully pushed in a small cart filled with cake and champagne.
Ye Cang was forced to release Shen Huai and looked at them with a accusing gaze: "Hey! You guys did this on purpose, didn't you!"
Guo Wenyuan laughed heartily: "There's nothing we can do, those who have partners are all our class enemies."
Ye Cang: "..."
Chu Meibo stepped in to smooth things over: "Alright, let's hurry up and celebrate for Xiaxia. She'll probably be very busy with her schedule soon, so we probably won't have much time to get together for a while."
That's true. After attending the celebration banquet, Xia Shiyu will fly with the other members to another city for a promotional event, and their schedule will be packed for the next period of time.
Actually, everyone else also made time to come.
Pei Ran and Shen Huai have been busy preparing for their new drama. Guo Wenyuan's "East City Fog" is about to start filming, and he will be joining the crew soon. As for Chu Meibo, Sister Mei doesn't have any roles, but she didn't go back to take her final exams and will have to go back to retake them.
So, by all accounts, Ye Cang is the only one with the most free time.
As a result, Ye Cang once again became the target of everyone's attacks.
After everyone finished celebrating Xia Shiyu's departure with laughter and chatter, they all saw her off.
As soon as he stepped outside, Guo Wenyuan involuntarily shuddered.
Shen Huai noticed and asked, "What's wrong?"
Guo Wenyuan scratched his head, somewhat puzzled. "I don't know either. I suddenly feel a bit cold. Maybe it's because the temperature difference is a bit big when I'm outside."
Ye Cang immediately seized the opportunity to attack back: "Don't try to save face for yourself, you probably just have kidney problems."
The words "kidney problems" instantly stung Guo Wenyuan's nerves. He immediately forgot the strange feeling he had just experienced and started arguing with Ye Cang.

Meanwhile, in Fu Cheng's villa, a Taoist priest was calculating something with his fingers. Fu Cheng waited anxiously by his side. When the priest stopped, he hurriedly asked, "How is it?"
The Taoist priest frowned: "Something's not right."
Fu Cheng pressed further, "You mean, there really is something wrong with Guo Wenyuan?"
The Taoist priest picked up an old photo of Guo Wenyuan from the table and said, "Look at his forehead, which is slightly flat, and his glabella is dark. His eyebrows are messy and the hair is growing in the opposite direction. This kind of person is destined to die a violent death."
As he spoke, he picked up another photo and placed it in front of Fu Cheng: "Can you see the difference?"
Fu Cheng was completely bewildered. In his eyes, there was no difference between the two photos. Guo Wenyuan looked equally annoying in both. It was just that he used to dislike him simply because of their different stances and his personality. Now, the reasons for his dislike were much more complicated.
The Taoist sighed and pointed, saying, "His forehead looks much fuller now, and his glabella even has a rosy glow. His eyebrows are neat and tidy. Also, his mouth used to turn down, which meant he was a difficult person to get along with, but now he always has a smile on his face. As the saying goes, 'A cheerful smile brings good fortune.' His face has undergone a complete transformation. I wouldn't believe it if nothing had happened."
Fu Cheng was even more confused and cautiously asked, "I always thought it was because of the makeup?"
The Taoist shook his head: "It's hard to say about other things, but no matter how skilled a makeup artist is, they can't turn the deathly aura between the eyebrows into good fortune. It's a pity you can't get the other person's birth date and time, otherwise I could have calculated it more accurately."
Fu Cheng was also somewhat disappointed. He did know Guo Wenyuan's birthday, but he didn't know the exact time of his birth. It wasn't appropriate to ask him about that. Moreover, given the irreconcilable differences between Sheng Er and the eldest son's family, it was even less likely that he would know.
However, Fu Cheng was still very excited that this Taoist priest could glean so much from just two photos. He had previously met this Taoist priest, Yixin, through a friend's introduction and knew that he was very capable.
Later, Guo Wenyuan suddenly changed his ways. Not only did he stop his hedonistic lifestyle, but he also started acting and investing in television seriously. He even kicked himself out of the "Red Actress" production team. Fu Cheng hated him to the core, but he was helpless, so he thought of this Daoist Master Yixin.
Now that Yixin has said this, it seems that Guo Wenyuan has quite a few problems.
Fu Cheng was immediately intrigued: "Then what do you think happened to him?"
After thinking it over carefully, Yixin said, "According to what you said, his personality has changed drastically, and his appearance has also changed so much. I think the most likely explanation is that he has been possessed."
Fu Cheng: "Possession?"
Yixin explained, "Possession is when a wandering ghost takes over a person's body. Some people are born with the ability to see ghosts, making them perfect containers for spirits. However, in such cases, the ghosts that can ultimately possess a person are the most ferocious and powerful, and they are tainted by the original owner's karma, which is not so easy to eliminate. How could their appearance possibly improve?"
Completely baffled, Fu Cheng couldn't care less about the consequences: "If it's possession, do you have a way to deal with him?"
