"It's fine if you're going to film. Let's sign an agreement first."
Yu Leelee excitedly slammed the table. If it wasn't for the fact that she was afraid that the person in charge would come later, "uncle Zhan, you're so good." She looked at him with gratitude and even compared it to a petty thing.
Soong Xingchen's hand that was holding the chopsticks was a little green, but she seemed to have thought of something and quickly hid her exposed aura.
"Enough, enough. Isn't it just filming? Only students like you who haven't left school are so excited. When the future is on the right track, I reckon you would want to lie on the bed and not go to the film set." Soong Xingchen smiled and gave her another rib.
Yu Leelee happily put it in her mouth and chewed, "Today's rib is especially delicious."
Zhan Beiting saw her happy look and also gave her another piece.
Because he was in a good mood, at this moment he did not even feel that Soong Xingchen was detestable. Even when she was lying on the bed and sleeping, there was a smile on her face.
In her dreams, she seemed to have returned to the real world. It was still the Taoist temple before she came here. She was holding the compass in her hand and preparing to calculate.
Suddenly, the entire Daoist temple burned up, and a raging fire hit her face.
Yu Leelee threw away the compass in her hand and formed a hand seal. She wanted to escape from the fire but her finger suddenly found that it did not listen to her orders and she was struggling in the heat...
Hot. At this moment, Yu Leelee only felt that her entire body was extremely hot. She looked around for water, and her entire body rolled back and forth on the bed.
Outside the window, a blue shadow was floating in the air. Its long and narrow eyes were filled with green light. Looking closely, it was the man dressed in ancient clothing who spoke to Soong Xingchen at the entrance of the alley that night.
His red lips slowly curled up and he was more and more satisfied with the condition of the person on the bed.
"Wah! Wah!"
A crow flew past the window, and with a flap of the folding fan in the man's hand, a few feathers flew down from the sky, and the crow... turned into a wisp of black smoke.
The man's figure completely disappeared from the window!
Yu Leelee suddenly woke up from her dream but her eyelids did not have any strength. It was as if she saw something flash past the window but did not catch it.
It was hot, and the heat on her body was really unbearable. There was also a strange feeling.
Zhan Beiting rubbed the space between his eyebrows. He put down the last bit of work and came out of the study. He habitually drank a glass of milk before sleeping.
He never liked to trouble the maids at night, so he went straight downstairs.
Just as he walked to the staircase, he saw Soong Xingchen coming out of the kitchen.
"Are you hungry?" Zhan Beiting asked.
Soong Xingchen ignored him and walked past him. Her body was stiff like a puppet holding a string, like she was sleepwalking.
Zhan Beiting did not mind and continued to walk towards the kitchen.
In the kitchen, the things were placed in a mess. Zhan Beiting was a little angry and felt that something was wrong. Was the new maid slacking off?
Suddenly, he seemed to have noticed something. He turned around and ran upstairs.
At this moment, Soong Xingchen was carrying a kitchen knife and walking towards Yu Leelee who was on the bed.
In the darkness, the kitchen knife reflected the dark light under the moonlight and the people who were on the bed looked more and more frightened.
"Soong Xingchen, what are you doing?" She wanted to get up but did not have any strength. She quickly chanted a string of incantations, wanting to get out of this predicament. However, her incantation actually failed!
