"Duanmu Gongyu, I'm back. I've determined that I will be with you. But I will tell you in advance; if you don't like me anymore one day, you can tell me directly. I will walk away without hesitation, but you can never like others while you like me. I only accept your undivided love. If you trample upon our love, I will hate you for a lifetime and never forgive you!" The woman was shy, but she said these words firmly to the man. She shined her light because of a pair of sparkling eyes.

Gazing at the woman's beautiful face surprisingly, the man could not help feeling a little moved. He said with an indulgent look, "Hum, I get it! But I also want to tell you that I will love you with all my heart and soul in this present life. I will not give you any reason to leave me. I only beg you not to leave me anymore! I really can't bear the pain of losing you!"

His face overflowed with tenderness and his eyes were full of attachment and indulgence. He held the woman, like a lost treasure, tight in his arms. Then he lowered his head to kiss her affectionately. The man kissed passionately and the woman was wrapped in tenderness. They were completely lost in the passionate kiss...

Suddenly, the scene changed dramatically. The atmosphere instantly cooled to the point that anyone in it would feel that they were in a frozen sea.

The woman looked painful. She was almost suffocated by the pain she felt as if her heart was stabbed by a knife. She asked sharply, "Duanmu Gongyu, do you still remember what you said?"

The man was panic-stricken and answered, "Of course, I remember. Xiao Xi, I love you only!"

The woman sneered and then burst into tears, "Huh... love me only! What is all that I have seen?"

When the man was about to utter words, the woman took the initiative to blame him angrily.

She said to the man in indignation, "Duanmu Gongyu, you said that you would love me only in this lifetime. I trusted you so much and abandoned everything to love you! But you... I never expected that you would make that choice and betray our love in the end!"

The woman's cheeks were wet with tears, but she just ignored it. She held up the wine bottle in her hand and drank off. As the pungent spirits ran down her throat, she felt bitter both her body and mind. The bitterness seemed to cut to the soul. She tossed the bottle aside and then cried out resolutely and determinedly, "Duanmu Gongyu, please remember that I will not love you anymore from now on!" The woman then fell back...

The man cried loudly, "Xiao Xi, no! Xiao Xi, come back..."

A pleasant ringtone sounded...

Yun Muxi was awakened by the ringtone. She raised her hand to rub her eyebrows, finding that her cheeks were wet again. She had the same nightmare again. The bad dream had troubled her for four years. It was sweet but excruciating. Every time when she waked up, the pillow was wet. She put her hand on her chest, which was so painful as if it had been held tight by a big hand every time she waked up from her dream.

Yun Muxi was still absent-minded. Her cell phone kept ringing. Once it stopped ringing, the cheerful sound would arise again. It seemed to tell her how worried the caller was! After a long while, she came to herself and reached for the phone.

With a little husky voice, Yun Muxi said feebly, "Hello?"

A man's gentle and deep voice came. "Is that Yun Muxi?"

Yun Muxi turned her head to look at the clock on the headboard. It was 8:30 am. She answered casually, "Yes, this is."

She heard a man's voice from the receiver, "I'm Zhao Yi, the director. I have some ideas about several details about the script I'm going to work with you this time, so I want to invite you out to talk about it. The leading actor has been determined and I'd like to introduce you to each other."

Upon hearing this, Yun Muxi suddenly sat up with her back straight. She said seriously, "Hello, Director Zhao! I can meet you at any time. I'm at your disposal."

Zhao Yi laughed gently and said tenderly, "Please come to the coffee shop in Shengxin Hotel at 10 o'clock this morning. I'll see you there."

Yun Muxi laughed gently and answered pleasantly, "Ok! I'll be there on time."

In a private room of the coffee shop in Shengxin Hotel, at 10 o'clock.

A delicate and elegant young woman opened the door and came in.

The young woman had shoulder-length, pitch-black, soft, and bright hair. She had thick bangs covering her eyebrows and two thin braids at hair end hanging on her chest. She wore oversized black frame glasses on her palm-sized face. The glasses covered half of her face, which appeared to be disharmony.

She wore a white dress with a lavender woolen cardigan. It was clean, simple, and refreshing. The slim-cut dress appropriately outlined her slender and delicate waist. She looked slim and graceful.

The young woman remained calm. She impressed others with her delicateness and elegance. Although she was not short, with a height of 1.65 meters, she impressed others with delicateness because of her thin figure.

A man at age of 37 or 38, who looked learned and refined, sat on the couch. He had well-groomed black hair, gold-rimmed glasses, a white shirt with a light grey handmade leisure suit, as well as khaki slacks. His legs were naturally crossed. He lightly leaned against the back of the sofa, with his left hand on his legs and his right hand on the arm of the sofa, showing people a kind of warm feeling.

When he saw the comer, the man asked with a smile, "Yun Muxi?"

Yun Muxi answered as she nodded, "Hello, Director Zhao. I'm Yun Muxi." She said in a calm and polite mood.

Zhao Yi straightened up slightly, pointed at the seat opposite him, and said with a chuckle, "Oh, please sit down. Although we've talked about the script for a long time, it's my first time to meet you in person. "

A smile crept over the corners of Yun Muxi's mouth as she said, "Director Zhao, please call me Xiao Xi. I've heard of you before. Your profession and reputation are admirable. It's my honor to have a chance to work with you. I will take this opportunity to learn from you."

Her words were fair-spoken and sincere, so it did not sound artificial but enjoyable. Looking at the generous and elegant girl in front of him, Zhao Yi appreciated and liked her more.

Zhao Yi poured a cup of tea for Yun Muxi and put it on the table before her. He suddenly looked serious and said, "This script is well written. Xiao Xi, I really appreciate your talent. I've rarely seen a young woman like you."

As Zhao Yi finished speaking, the door opened again. Zhao Yi beamed widely and hurried to greet him, "Gong Yu, here you are! Come on, sit here! Let me introduce you to each other. This is Miss Yun Muxi, the scriptwriter of this film. Xiao Xi, this is Gong Yu, the leading actor who plays Mu Lengyu."

Yun Muxi immediately stood up and turned around to look at the man with a polite smile. When she saw him clearly, her smiles froze on her face. She was stupefied on the spot as if she had been struck by lightning.

Gong Yu wore a black shirt, black suit pants, and a black woolen overcoat. He was handsome and unrestrained but a little indifferent.

His pitch-black short hair made him look neat and fresh. His five sense organs were angular as if they were the secret workings of nature. His long and narrow phoenix eyes were sharp and calm. His brow ridge wound ups and downs like a mountain above his phoenix eyes. His brow ridge was high and stood between his eyebrows like sheer cliffs and steep mountains. He had a long and straight nose and two thin and red lips.

His indifference did not cover his handsomeness. Instead, it displayed his kingliness and imposing manner in a better way. Without any facial expressions, he just remained indifference. A sense of abstinence from strangers distanced himself from others, making him look proud and cool.

If he were someone else, Yun Muxi would definitely exclaim that this man was handsome, domineering, and charming. Right now, she could not exclaim at all but feel a little terrified.

An imperceptible evil smile flashed across the corners of Gong Yu's mouth. His eyes were as deep as a pool, which was unpredictable.

Yun Muxi was aware of her discomposure and instantly adjusted her state of mind. With a polite smile, she said modestly and courteously, "Mr. Gong, nice to meet you." Then, she handed over her white and fine right hand to him.

A hint of anger rose from the depths of Gong Yu's eyes but soon it disappeared. He responded in an attractive but cold voice, "Nice to meet you!"

Gong Yu held Yun Muxi's hand more fiercely. He stared at Yun Muxi with a pair of amber eyes, as if he would see through her soul.

Yun Muxi felt pain in her hand and she was shocked by his phoenix eyes. She knitted her beautiful eyebrows lightly and stared at Gong Yu in displeasure, with warnings in her eyes.

Zhao Yi stood behind Yun Muxi and did not discern their little trick. He called them with smiles, "Come here and sit down. Let's talk."

Gong Yu released Yun Muxi's hand as if nothing had happened. He walked calmly and sat down beside Zhao Yi. Yun Muxi also turned around and sat back in her seat.

When they all sat down, Zhao Yi poured a cup of tea for Gong Yu and handed it to him. He spoke to Gong Yu with a smile, "Gong Yu, the script you've seen is written by Xiao Xi, who is a talented woman. She is a senior student from Z University. It's rare to see a young person who has such an unusual literary talent."

Gong Yu took the teacup and sipped a little bit. He remained indifferent and answered in a low voice. "She's really a rare talent! I wonder how can Miss Yun write such a wonderful story at such a young age?"

Gong Yu raised his brow ridge and looked at Yun Muxi with his long and narrow phoenix eyes.

Yun Muxi felt uncomfortable and pretended to be calm. She said casually, "It's just a whim. Little girls always have many strange ideas."

She quirked up the corners of her mouth, held the cup, and took a sip of tea. She did everything freely and relaxedly.

Gong Yu moved the corners of his mouth gently to form an evil smile. He asked sarcastically, "Miss Yun, is it possible that it's your personal experience?"

Yun Muxi was panic-stricken. Obviously, Gong Yu was hostile and provocative. Yun Muxi remained calm and sneered, "Ha... How is it possible? What I wrote is a time-travel play, so it's evidently a fantasy. Mr. Gong, you're really good at joking!"

Gong Yu stared at Yun Muxi and said in a cold but meaningful voice, which made her feel a little nervous, "Hehe, that's just a joke. No offense! But... Miss Yun, why do you look like my ex-girlfriend?"
