In a flash, half a month has already passed.

The filming of《Sunflower》had finally reached its final scene.

Cheng Yuan, the character played by Bai Haoqi, was going to propose to Tong Yao, who was being acted by Mu Qing.

"I'm sorry." Tong Yao slightly lowered her gaze as she quietly replied.

Hearing this, the slight smile that had begun to curl at the edge of Cheng Yuan's lips stiffened. Stunned at that very spot for a long while, his shining eyes gradually dimmed and finally fragmented like the lights of a field of stars.

"There's no need for you to apologise." He stood up as an agonised smile appeared at the corner of his lips.

"Cheng Yuan." Tong Yao was silent for a while and finally, she raised her head as she gazed at him. Her beautiful phoenix eyes overflowed solemnly as she continued, "please forget about me."

"Alright." Cheng Yuan lightly smiled and handed over to her the ring that was in his hands.

"Huh?" Tong Yao was startled.

"Didn't you ask me to forget you? If you don't want it, I can only have it thrown it away. Still, I have to bring this up-" Cheng Yuan chuckled, "it was still pretty expensive."

Hearing this, Tong Yao could not help but laugh and reached out to receive the ring. As the beautiful ring was placed in her hand, in her heart, she felt a rush of bitterness well forth.

She abruptly tightened her hand while the diamond's edge rested sharply against the hollow of her palm. As she did so, a somewhat faint sense of pain spread through her palm.

"Goodbye." Raising her eyes to take a quick glimpse at him, she then turned and left.

The slim figure disappeared around the corner and Cheng Yuan raised his chin up slightly as the snowflakes of the early winter fell gently down on his face, giving him a piercingly cold tingle.

"Goodbye."

As he quietly replied, his voice became rather husky as glistening teardrops could already be glimpsed from those dark eyes.

As the camera shot was pulled further back, in that winter wonderland, that man clad in the black overcoat was a lonely soul standing there, all alone.

"Cut." Lu Xi spoke and his voice was not very loud either. Yet, in the silent filming studio, it was particularly clear.

"It's a wrap then!" It was not sure who first shouted that phrase but suddenly, the entire studio became lively and even some of the lead actors seemed to have been rather relieved from their burdens as they smiled.
