Benny, I listened to Rainie Yang’s song called Ai Mei. What does it mean? By the way, last time I asked about how to say she’s cheap? you said tā hěn pián yì. So pian yi can also mean stingy? I’m lil bit confused ;p .

Pian2 yi4 only means cheap, stingy means “lin4 se4”.
ai4 mei4 has no specific word in English
There’re two basic meanings/contexts for ai4 mei4
:
1. (Someone’s attitude/reaction): ambiguous/equivocal.
2. (Someone’s behavior/relationship): shady/dubious/questionable.
