Ming Shu recognized the winner. It was that foreigner.

  “Senior Sister, what happened?” Su Nanfeng felt that it was strange too.

  By right, the first place should be “a dream-like order.”


  Even if it was not “a dream-like order,””I have a dream” should get it. Why was the first place given to Jim?

  “I don’t know.” As the photographer for “a dream-like order,” she was very calm.

  Once the award for first place was presented, the commotion below started to get louder.

  “Please be quiet everyone. I am sure that everyone feels weird. Why didn’t “a dream-like order” receive an award? Now, let us invite the representative of the organizers, Lady Ding, to reveal it for us.”


  Everyone really became quiet after the host spoke.

  Lady Ding went up to the stage. She cleared her throat. “After much discussion, we have decided to add in a special award for this photography competition. I am sure all of you know who this special award goes to. Shall we invite the photographer for the ‘a dream-like order’ up—Miss Jiang Qiao.”


  A spotlight shone on Ming Shu’s seat. She got up slowly and walked toward the stage.

  The host came forward once again. “Congratulations, Miss Jiang Qiao. You have gained the title of ‘Best Photographer of the Year.’ Your work, ‘A dream-like order’ will be sent by us to the judges of the academy awards.”


  The photography academy award was the highest ranked award in the photography industry.

  Although her work was just sent over and it was not certain if she would win the award…… but she was really young.

  The photographers below were jealous and envious of her.

  Wei Xu looked at the person on the stage. She felt flashes of pain in her chest. Why…… if she didn’t get the first place, she could understand it. Why was she not the second or third either? Why did this happen?

  Jiang Qiao got a special award?

  Wei Xu was in a state of disbelief even after the awards ceremony ended.

  She didn’t believe that this would happen. Once everyone left the scene, she ran backstage.

  “Why didn’t my work win a prize?” Wei Xu stopped the host.

  The host was stunned for a moment. “Are you Miss Wei Xu? Just as well, we are looking for you too. Please come over here.”


  Wei Xu’s heart dropped.

  Looking for her?

  Wei Xu followed the host and entered a room. The judges were all inside and there was a man she didn’t recognize.

  Ming Shu was there too. She was sitting beside the man.

  “Miss Wei Xu?”


  A man asked.

  Wei Xu looked around at the people beside her and nodded her head.

  The man stood up. “I have something to ask you.”


  “What…… what is it?”


  When she saw Ming Shu, the alarm in her heart started ringing.

  The man asked, “Did you take the photos for ‘I have a dream’ yourself?”


  Wei Xu’s mind exploded. “Ye…… yes.”


  The man’s face changed slightly. “Miss Wei Xu, you just graduated, right? What made you want to take this series of photos?”


  Wei Xu controlled her emotions. “I always see this kind of news on television and while traveling, I met these children. Hence, I thought of this theme.”


  “Miss Wei Xu, did you really take this series of photos?” The man repeated the question.

  Wei Xu hesitated but still nodded.

  The man took out a controller and aimed it at the projector. He pressed a button. The magnified version of the photo appeared.

  The photo kept magnifying and at the bottom corner of the photo, there were small letters which blended into the background really well.

  If you didn’t magnify the photo, you would not see them at all.

  Also, these letters were not just normal ones. They represented something.

  “Miss Wei Xu, could you explain what these letters mean?” The man seemed a little overbearing.

  Wei Xu didn’t know that there would be a word there.

  Her face turned slightly pale.

  “My father would add these letters on all of his work. I made it personally. Miss Wei Xu, why did it appear in your work?”


  Wei Xu’s photos were photos from the future. Hence, the hidden signature on the photos were present too.

  Everyone looked at Wei Xu.

  Wei Xu felt that their gazes pierced into her body as if they were needles.

  She might have realized that she could not argue her way out anymore so she suddenly looked at Ming Shu. “Jiang Qiao! It was you, you told them!”


  “I reported it. This is not yours. I reported rightfully.” Ming Shu admitted it generously.

  She gave a look that said, I did it.

  What can you do to me?!

  Ming Shu knew who these photos belonged to because the story mentioned it specifically.

  However, no one found out about it so Wei Xu managed to bluff her way through.

  Coincidentally, the owner’s son was present at the scene.

  Wei Xu eyes slowly turned red and hatred flowed out of her eyes.

  [Hatred Points for Wei Xu are full.]

  Ming Shu raised her eyebrows. Full? So fast?

  This snacks coupon didn’t last very long!

  The man still had things to say. “I don’t know how you got my father’s work but, Miss Wei Xu, I will protect my rights using legal means. My lawyer will contact you.”


  –


  Wei Xu might have lost her protagonist halo, but her gold fingers couldn’t be used anymore, either.

  A camera without the gold fingers was just a normal camera.

  Wei Xu had a really bad reputation in the photography industry and with her own technique, she was unable to shoot any nice pieces of work.

  Wei Xu kept throwing temper tantrums at home. Her father could not stand her anymore and planned for her to go overseas.

  However, when she was about to board the plane, Wei Xu ran away.

  –


  Ming Shu stood outside the hospital gate. She walked in after standing there for a long time.

  Ji Jin was lying on the bed with a pale face. He looked totally different from the spirited person on the screen.

  Ji Jin was awake.

  When Ming Shu came in, he looked at her and asked calmly, “Why are you here?”


  “To look at you.”


  Ji Jin expression was gray. He looked like a cock that lost its match. “To laugh at me? Congratulations, you got your wish.”


  Ming Shu pulled a chair and sat on it. She looked up slightly with her chin raised and crossed her hands in front of her chest. “I know that you are not from this world.”


  Ji Jin shivered. He slowly raised his head.

  Yes.

  She knew about it so she responded to him differently.

  She knew……

  Wait, how did she know about it?

  Ming Shu asked, “Why do you need to woo me?”


  Ji Jin eyes turned aside. “Don’t you know everything?”


  “I only know that you are not from this world, but I don’t know why you need to woo me.”


  Ji Jin seemed to be thinking about something.

  After a while, he said, “There are rules, I can’t say.”


  “Rules?” What rules?

  Ji Jin saw that Ming Shu really didn’t know anything. He said, “I am bound. I can’t anyhow speak. Even if I want to say it, I can’t. I can’t write it, either. I can’t express it in any way.”


  Bound…… then why can that crazy person called Luo Yan say it?

  “Why are you telling me this so easily?”


  Ji Jin’s face turned gray. He whispered, “I can’t go back anyway.”


  “What do you mean?”


  Ji Jin shook his head to tell her that he couldn’t say.

  The transportation channel in this world was broken. He couldn’t go back anymore. He would spend the rest of his life in this body and then, he would die.
