Gwen heard the Ghost's words and thought she had misheard.
"What? You want to talk to me about something?" Gwen asked.
Meng Ran said, "That's right, just the two of us."
Hearing the Ghost's words, Gwen realized that he knew about Mary Jane's existence.
So Gwen said to Mary Jane, "Red Rose, you must have heard, I might have to temporarily cut off communication."
Because of what happened last time, Mary Jane was still a little afraid of the Ghost, and she was somewhat against it, not knowing what that person would do.
Mary Jane said, "Ghost Spider, are you really going? I always feel it's a bit dangerous; he's so terrifying."
But Gwen stuck to her decision. "It's fine, he won't do anything. Since he has something to say, it must be quite important, and I'm confident in my own strength. Even if something unexpected happens, I can still escape."
Hearing Gwen's persistence, Mary Jane no longer objected, but still cautioned her, "Then be careful. If anything happens, press the alarm."
"Mm, no problem," Gwen replied.
After the call ended, Gwen reached out and turned off her headset.
Seeing Gwen turn off her headset, Meng Ran said, "First, clear away your web-fluid, then we'll find another place to talk."
After speaking, Meng Ran also jumped down and began drawing the Ghost's symbol on the wall.
This head belonged to the Ghost. If there were web-fluid here, Meng Ran could imagine what tomorrow's news would be with just his knees.
Gwen understood what the Ghost was doing and silently went to clean up her web-fluid.
Once done, Meng Ran said to Gwen, "Now, follow me."
Then he sped off into the distance.
Gwen also followed behind the Ghost, heading into the distance.
Meng Ran intentionally slowed down his pace so that Gwen could keep up behind him.
After a while, the two stopped on a rooftop.
Meng Ran turned to face Gwen, and Gwen waited for him to speak first.
With a thought, Meng Ran's battle suit and Venom both receded into his body, revealing his true appearance.
Meng Ran awkwardly scratched his head and said, "Hi! Gwen."
Seeing the Ghost shed his disguise and turn into Meng Ran, Gwen suddenly felt like she was seeing things.
She asked Meng Ran in shock, "Meng!? How could you? You are the Ghost!"
Meng Ran nodded and said, "That's right, I am the Ghost. And I also know you are Gwen."
Gwen then realized that she had also been exposed, so she took off her mask, revealing her true face.
Looking at Gwen, who had also taken off her mask, Meng Ran said, "I'm sorry, Gwen. Today, I just wanted to apologize to you and then confess my identity."
"Last time we met, I didn't know you were Ghost Spider, so I was a bit heavy-handed. I'm sorry, I'm really very sorry."
Meng Ran said apologetically. He lowered his eyes, not daring to look at Gwen.
He already felt incredibly embarrassed and mortified.
After waiting for a long time and Gwen still not speaking, Meng Ran finally slowly raised his eyes to look at her.
Gwen was standing with her arms crossed, staring thoughtfully at Meng Ran.
Seeing Gwen's expression, Meng Ran suddenly felt uncomfortable all over.
Gwen looked at the awkward Meng Ran, still somewhat disbelieving, and said, "I never imagined that you, Meng Ran, were the Ghost. If you hadn't told me, I probably would never have guessed in my life."
"Oh, and how did you know I was Ghost Spider?"
Meng Ran looked at Gwen and said, "That's the secret I'm going to tell you next."
"Gwen, are you really not angry?"
Gwen heard this and showed a strange smile, saying, "Angry about what? That punch you threw at me? Or choking me and pinning me against the wall?"
Hearing Gwen's words, Meng Ran was immediately too embarrassed to speak, stammering and unable to get a word out.
"Hmph! Big idiot! I won't forget, I'll always remember. Let's see how you'll compensate me," Gwen said angrily.
After speaking, she even walked behind Meng Ran and lightly kicked his backside.
"I said before that if I ever saw the Ghost, I'd kick his backside. Even if I've found out you're the Ghost now, I can't let you off the hook."
Meng Ran saw Gwen's reaction and knew that she wasn't really that angry anymore, so he used his full ten-tenths of cheesy pick-up line skills and said,
"I'm sorry, I really didn't know it was you."
"Actually, it's because you're the only one in my heart, that's why I acted that way towards other women."
After speaking, Meng Ran also looked at Gwen with a "pitiful" expression.
Gwen felt a bit shy hearing his blunt words. Although her feelings for Meng Ran had been warming up, Meng Ran had never said anything like this before.
However, if it was as Meng Ran said, then it made a bit of sense.
Gwen suppressed her shyness and said somewhat tsundere-like, "Hmph! Smooth talker! If you agree to one condition, I'll forgive you."
Meng Ran readily agreed, quickly nodding and saying, "Of course I agree! Any condition!"
Gwen thought for a moment and said, "Emmm, I haven't thought of it yet. Let's keep it pending for now."
Meng Ran immediately nodded like a pounding garlic, expressing his strong agreement.
Gwen then said, "Now, can you tell me how you knew I was Ghost Spider?"
Meng Ran and Gwen walked to the edge of the rooftop and sat down. Then Meng Ran said, "This is where I'll introduce you to a new friend."
After speaking, Meng Ran raised his right hand, and Venom emerged from Meng Ran's palm, not in its terrifying form, but as a round, cute little blob.
Venom was shaped like an inverted teardrop, but the part connected to his palm wasn't so thin. Two round, white eyes looked adorable and innocent, completely lacking the horror and eeriness of its elongated eyes.
Below the eyes was a small mouth, which, though filled with sharp teeth, also appeared very cute, without any terrifying aspect.
Meng Ran said, "His name is Venom. He's a symbiote, and he lives inside my body now."
After Meng Ran finished speaking, Venom also extended a small black hand and waved at Gwen in greeting.
"Oh ~ Hello there, beautiful lady."
"I think even the bright moonlight tonight can't compare to your perfect countenance."
Venom spoke in his rough voice, creating a huge contrast with his cute appearance.
After speaking, Venom even took Gwen's hand and kissed it, acting incredibly flashy.
Gwen laughed heartily at the amusing Venom. As she laughed, she looked at Meng Ran with a strange expression.
Meng Ran immediately said loudly, "Ahem! I didn't teach him that. Don't look at me like that. I don't know who he learned it from, maybe he saw it on TV."
Venom wanted to say something when he heard this, but then he saw Meng Ran's gaze and swallowed his words back.
Because he received Meng Ran's message. Meng Ran's eyes told him, "If you dare to talk nonsense again, you won't have any ribs to eat anymore!"
Venom wisely chose to back down. He had no other meaning; he wasn't doing it for the ribs. He was mainly concerned about his host.
Meng Ran then continued to tell Gwen about Venom's characteristics and how he had confirmed Gwen was Ghost Spider this way.
"So, you confirmed my identity by using Venom after I fell asleep, and you even gained some of my abilities?" Gwen looked at Meng Ran and said.
Meng Ran rubbed his nose, embarrassed, and said, "Ahem, that's how it is."
Gwen narrowed her eyes and said faintly, "Pervert!"
Meng Ran quickly explained that he only did it to confirm her identity and didn't do anything else.
"What else did you want to do?" Gwen asked again.
Meng Ran was greatly embarrassed: "Nothing, I mean I didn't have any bad intentions, and I felt very guilty about hurting you, so I even applied medicine for you."
Gwen suddenly understood: "Oh ~ I wondered why the pain was gone after I slept. So you applied the medicine for me. Then I should thank you!"
Meng Ran quickly waved his hands: "No, no, no, no need to thank me, it was my fault to begin with."
Gwen smiled and said, "Well, since you applied the medicine for me, how was the feel?"
Meng Ran thought of that night: the flat stomach, the firm breasts, the smooth skin and feel, and subconsciously said, "The feel was indeed good."
As soon as he finished speaking, Meng Ran felt a sense of danger above his head.
Sure enough, Gwen gritted her teeth and fiercely hit Meng Ran's head.
The Gwen-brand head-whack, with greatly increased strength after mutation, was roughly equivalent to a weighing scale hitting one's head, if anyone needed to know.
Meng Ran immediately felt like he had an extra head and quickly admitted his mistake to Gwen, coaxing her for a good while before she calmed down.
After their playful banter ended, Meng Ran also asked, "So, Gwen, how did you become Ghost Spider?"
Meng Ran and Gwen walked to the side of the rooftop and sat down. Then Meng Ran said, "This is where I'll introduce you to a new friend."
After speaking, Meng Ran raised his right hand, and Venom emerged from Meng Ran's palm, not in its terrifying form, but as a round, cute little blob.
