"Song Yi, I'm hungry!" Xiao Jin Dong's voice was low and deep, as if he was a ghost from the Dark Forest.

I was confused. I tightly gripped the scissors in my hand as my mind went blank.

"Song Yi, I'm hungry!" Xiao Jin Dong said again, "Go down and cook some noodles for me!"

Xiao Jin Dong then left. When I was completely awake and opened the door, the entire house was completely silent. Not to mention a living person, there wasn't even a light.

"Xiao Jin Dong?" I cried out, my voice echoing through the empty corridors, but no one answered.

I suddenly felt scared. Many people had died here, and I had seen a lot of them. It was as if I could see the ghosts in a dark corner, eyes wide open, dying with grievance.

My hair stood on end and I couldn't even walk properly.

"Xiao Jin Dong?" I started to cry, but the door to the hall on the first floor was suddenly kicked open. A woman's voice sounded, "Xiao Jin Dong!"

A roar nearly scared my heart out. I screamed and instinctively ran towards my room. However, my arm was grabbed by a hand. I was so scared that I didn't dare to look at who it was as I desperately slapped it.

"Song Yi! Song Yi!"

Xiao Jin Dong's voice was a bit hurried. I was startled awake and found that I was lying on my own bed. The surroundings were flashing with orange lights. There wasn't a single trace of darkness.

"Xiao Jin Dong!" I cried in a trembling voice.

"I'm here! Song Yi, you're just dreaming!"

Xiao Jin Dong's voice was still low and hoarse, as if he was in a dream. However, I threw myself into his embrace without any hesitation and hugged him tightly.

"Xiao Jin Dong, there's a ghost!"

I cried a bit miserably, Xiao Jin Dong laughed out loud, "There is no ghost, Song Yi, the ghost is only in the heart of man, and not in the world. And that's what you told me! "

I was stunned and looked up from his embrace. The smile on Xiao Jin Dong's face was still curled up, it was so gentle, so loving, and so intimate. I raised my neck and kissed it. It was shallow but uncontrollable.

Xiao Jin Dong didn't ask for me, but instead hugged me and laid on the bed. I could hear his breathing, feel his intense heartbeat, and fell into a deep sleep. However, I didn't have any more nightmares.

When I woke up again, the sky was already bright, but Xiao Jin Dong wasn't in bed. I've been haunted by nightmares lately. Some of them make no sense between reality and dreams. I get up in a daze and wash myself. I see myself in the mirror, in the open nightgown, on my collarbone, with kissing marks all over.

I hurried downstairs. Xiao Jin Dong was already sitting in the living room eating. A servant was quietly standing not far away. When he saw me come down, he lowered his head and handed me the tableware. I sat across from Xiao Jin Dong and ate in silence. Xiao Man Jun came back from the outside reeking of alcohol and said, "Xiao Jin Dong, I'm going to Zhenjiang to work!"

Xiao Jin Dong stopped for a moment and replied, "Alright!"

Xiao Man Jun seemed to still have a lot of words to say, but he didn't expect Xiao Jin Dong to reply in such a straightforward manner. He choked and stood dumbly on the spot.

"When father is here, those seniors loved you the most. It's good if you go, but if you help brother to persuade those people, you'll only end up seeking your own doom if you stick to your ways!" Xiao Jin Dong wiped the corner of his mouth elegantly. When he got up, one of the servants immediately went up to support him. However, he didn't go upstairs but instead instructed them to walk around the garden.

I didn't know what to do. I waited for Xiao Jin Dong to take a few steps before I suddenly remembered something, "Xiao Jin Dong, I'm going to the crew today!"

"Alright!" Xiao Jin Dong sent me off with another word. I was stunned, but Xiao Man Jun had already sat down and gulped down a bowl of porridge. He pursed his lips and said, "Song Yi, make some porridge for me next time as well!"

"Xiao Manjun, you go and cut off half of your stomach as well!" I retorted coldly, but my appetite was gone. Xiao Jin Dong's abnormality left me completely clueless. When I went out, I saw him sitting alone on a rattan chair in the garden with a book in his hand, occasionally instructing the servants on how to prune the flower beds.

I looked at him from afar. That person is like a crane that has left the world, you might think that he is immersed in the filth of the mortal world, but he always knows how fast his steps are.

"Let's go, I'll send you off!" Xiao Manjun came over and put his arm around my shoulder, but I pushed him away, "There are so many drivers outside. Does Mister Xiao think I don't have money?"

Xiao Man Jun laughed mischievously as his naked eyes wandered over my body. When he saw my neck, his expression abruptly changed as he coldly snorted, "How can Song Yi not have money!"

A driver came in and greeted me respectfully, "Miss Song, Mr. Song asked me to send you off!"

Xiao Manjun glared at me with hatred before he turned around and walked away. I followed the driver to the car. When I got to the set, Hu Xia, Fang Mu, and the others were just about to go out and were very happy to see me back, especially the Three Tigers.

"Editor Song, it's great that you're back. Editor Hu and I will discuss with each other, we can't have our annual leave. At that time, there would be a huge gathering, so it would be better for us to preheat, slap, and broadcast. Then, I'll find some entertainment time to create some gimmicks for our versions, saying that the outcome is decided by the audience, what do you think? "

I nodded. "I don't know much about the rules of the entertainment industry. You guys are the only ones who know how to do it!" Right, have you filmed those scenes yet? "How's the search for the post-production going?"

Hu Xia said. You know, Huo Shui Xian can't possibly give us a chance to live, we can't use it! "

I understood that Huo Shui Xian couldn't openly shut us out, but it was a piece of cake for us to throw ourselves into the streets, "What suggestions do you have?"

"We'll find our own people!" Ol 'Four suddenly said, "I want to use a new player. Although it's very risky, the investment isn't too big. Also, the new player's insight is more in line with what we, Chun Rui, want from the audience's point of view."

"It's not good even with newbies. Although their opinions are fresh, they don't have a profound style of doing things." Hu Xia objected, but her fourth brother didn't insist. Three Tigers scratched her head, "Then what do we do? If we shoot according to the normal progress, we would be in the middle of a celebration. Wouldn't we be crushed by then?"

"Go dig!" I looked at Hu Xia. Hu Xia frowned, "Song Yi, who are you planning to dig up?" It couldn't be that gold medal editor from Liu Jiang's film crew, right? "

I nodded. "Yes, that's him. The post-production of the movies has been postponed to the end. Although he has signed the contract, there aren't many jobs left right now. Furthermore, as long as we offer a high price, no one will take revenge on Qian! "

"But our budget?" Fang Mu frowned.

I looked at Hu Xia and said, "You didn't come, so I don't dare to take out the contract. I'm afraid that you, Xiao, and Mister Xiao would change it!"

Zheng Fang Zhou's investment contract made Fang Mu and the others ecstatic. Fourth Bro immediately patted his chest and said that he would definitely dig them out. Looking at the trust in the eyes of Three Tigers and Fang Mu, I suddenly realised that the usually quiet Fourth Bro was the negotiating expert.
