I snapped out of my daze and instinctively pushed the person who was hugging me away. I couldn't see anything clearly in the blinding light, but I instinctively chose to run, as if I was in darkness.

However, not all light represented hope. Sometimes, it also represented something even more terrifying than darkness. But I have no other way.

In the distance, the sounds of arguments gradually grew closer. The complicated footsteps approached me, and I heard Shen Jianning's voice. It sounded urgent, like the moment of panic when the ice was broken. "Song Yi, it's the reporter. Get in the car!"

A reporter? I paused, unable to react in my mind. I'm not a celebrity, and I'm not a celebrity either. The only person who can stop me is Xiao Jin Dong.

I seemed to understand a little bit about Liu Jiang's enthusiasm, Fourth Bro's worry, and Shen Jianning's entanglement.

I frantically waved my hands. Someone pulled me under the glaring light. I screamed. My body was dragged by the warm palm and stuffed into a car. I couldn't sit still and tried to pull the carriage down, but I heard Xiao Fang's voice, "Miss Song, it's Mr Xiao and I!"

Xiao Jin Dong? I stopped struggling and realised that I was tightly grabbing onto Xiao Jin Dong's collar. His face was ashen, and the anger in his eyes almost made me instantly bounce back. My head hit the roof of the car, causing me to grimace in pain as I held my head in a corner.

I didn't even have the courage to look up at Xiao Jin Dong.

He had acted so carefree in front of Shen Jianning, but now, he had slapped his own face.

"Drive!" His voice was calm and low, totally at odds with the rage on his face. It was also because of this that I was even more afraid.

Little Fang turned at top speed, cutting through the frantic reporters, and quickly left through another passageway. I didn't dare look up, so naturally, I didn't know what was happening outside. However, with such an obvious catch, the scene must be huge.

"Sit up. Acting dead won't solve the problem!" Xiao Jin Dong's cold voice sounded. I was extremely distressed, especially when Xiao Fang was there. However, I was powerless to refute him. Coughing once, I uneasily did my best. Truly, I sat upright and didn't even dare to make any small movements.

I wanted to explain what had happened, but my mouth opened and I didn't know where to begin.

There were so many people at the party, so why am I so intimate with Shen Jianning in the underground parking lot? Said he was just taking me home? Who would believe it?

I lowered my head like a child who had done something wrong, until I returned to the Xiao family's old house. When Xiao Fang opened the door for me, he took advantage of Xiao Jin Dong's inattention and whispered, "Miss Song, don't argue with Mr Xiao. Mr Xiao cares about you, he didn't even eat dinner!"

I seem to know everything about Xiao Jin Dong's kindness from someone else. It used to be Gu Qing and the rest, but now even Xiao Fang said it like this, as if I was the one who was wrong forever. I was always the one who betrayed Xiao Jin Dong's feelings.

"I got it!" From beginning to end, I kept on putting on my airs. After Wang Xuan and Ol 'Four repeatedly brainwashed me, I gradually began to feel that I, who was not the Director, should care about my face. If my past self were to know about this, I would really die from laughter.

I shook my head in self-mockery and quickly entered the room. Xiao Jin Dong was sitting on the sofa with his phone in his hand, looking at something unknown. I stood across from him and rubbed my hands, trying to find a beginning to explain the absurdity of the night, but after thinking about it for a long time, I came up empty-handed.

"I'm hungry, go cook for me!" Xiao Jin Dong didn't give me much time to be conflicted and didn't even look at me.

I remembered that Xiaofang had said he hadn't eaten, so I stopped thinking about the explanation and hurried into the kitchen, where I made him some porridge and chopped up some green beef to make some digestible noodles.

While I was busy, Xiao Jin Dong suddenly appeared behind me. I could feel her unique aura in an instant.

I looked up in panic, not knowing what to do.

"Explain!" Xiao Jin Dong frowned, as if he was extremely annoyed with himself for asking this question, but he also seemed to be extremely disgusted with me.

I had thousands of words in my chest, but they were all in vain under his gaze.

"What should I explain? Even I can tell that this is a play directed by someone else. Mr Xiao is so smart and wise, how could he not know? " I ran towards him with a gentle and humble attitude, but when I said those words, my entire body was riddled with thorns, typical of words that didn't mean what I said.

"Hmph, someone else directed it? I think you enjoy it! " Xiao Jin Dong sneered.

I was so agitated by him that I bit my lip and didn't say anything.

Xiao Jin Dong seemed to be displeased that I ignored him. He suddenly grabbed my arm. I was also angry and was about to vent my anger. He was holding the kitchen knife to vent his anger. As he pulled, the knife in my hand almost directly slashed over.

I was scared out of my wits as I threw away my blade in a flurry. I glared at him. "Are you crazy?"

"Hmph, am I crazy? Song Yi, don't force me! " Xiao Jin Dong's expression wasn't good. It was unknown if it was because he didn't have dinner, or because he was angry.

I said that everything happened because of me. I said that nothing happened between Shen Jianning and me, and I said that I had already drawn a clear line between us, and understood that the person who accompanied me in my madness was not him, Shen Jianning, but you. I said this, do you believe me? I couldn't control my tears. My eyes were red and my nose was sour. I stubbornly refused to admit defeat and just looked at Xiao Jin Dong. I wanted him to see my hard work. I wanted him to know that I love him and never change.

Xiao Jin Dong didn't say anything and just let me look. In those eyes that were looking at me, there was a repressed anger and an emotion that I couldn't see through. It made me feel despair in my heart.

Indeed, Xiao Jin Dong never trusted anyone, he only trusted himself.

I tried to pull away from him. "I'm going to cook. You have a bad stomach. You'll get sick if you don't eat dinner!"

I chose to compromise, but Xiao Jin Dong wasn't grateful. He suddenly pressed me down on the control panel. My lower back was hurting from the hard stone edges. I was forced to look up and saw the uncontrollable madness in Xiao Jin Dong's eyes.

That kind of humiliation and fear entered my mind at the same time. I pushed him like crazy and couldn't help cursing loudly, "Xiao Jin Dong, let go of me, let go of me, you pervert, you rapist!"

I shouted until my heart tore apart, and I heard the sound of my clothes being torn apart. Everything seemed to be proof. That crazy person, from start to finish, wasn't me, but Xiao Jin Dong!
