For Wu Bosun, it was like a nightmare. He hadn't even had a chance to express his love to the woman he admired the most. He had worked so hard to be with her, to spend time with her and it was just momentary? The feeling he got when she gave him that small piece of cake was so warm that he cherished it. He looked at Ru Shishi and suddenly feeling repulsive, removed her from him. He ran downstairs to find Feng Xinying.

All the people in the party including hotel staff had begun to find her. They all reached the place where she would have fallen. There were bushes over there and they switched on the large flashlight to light up the area to find her body.

Lu Dao in the meanwhile slowly got up from his place. He walked to the place from where Feng Xinying had fallen. He looked at the damaged podium and then at the glass railing. How could things go all wrong? Like a horror movie, the entire sequence of events played in his mind as if somehow his brain was unwilling to let the images go. The brain, in an attempt to analyze what could have happened, made him see it all over again.

It was a simple announcement followed a simple cake cutting – everything slipped through his mind like sand in an hour glass. He was the one who had goaded her to act in his movie. If he hadn't coaxed her, none of this would have happened and she would have been alive. Suddenly he was enveloped with guilt. He turned and rushed downstairs.

Zhou Ah Ming was interacting with other directors and producers. He was so proud of being Feng Xinying's secretary that he bragged that he was hand chosen by Feng Xinying's boyfriend, Mr. Xie Yuansheng to be her secretary. When he heard the loud thud, he looked at the source only to find that Feng Xinying had fallen off the podium. He ran towards her to save her but he was at a distance. By the time he reached, she was hanging on the railing. He was gripped with an unknown fear. It was as though he had been pushed into a dungeon with cold blackness pushing him in the corner.

The media reporters had started clicking photos and within minutes the entire episode was shared on Weibo, WeChat and other social media accounts. The news spread rapidly throughout the nation like fire in the forest. There were various types of responses by the people like surprise, joy, fear and disgust. The accident of the actress that Lu Dao had chosen for his next movie became the hot topic of the nation. The news met with sadness, anticipation and trust that the actress might have escaped the death.

Ru Shishi brushed her dress when she saw Wu Bosun running downstairs. She ambled her way through the crowd. It was time to go and find the dead body of the woman who had been her nemesis right from the time she was born. Ru Shishi softly hummed her way down the stairs. She was in no rush. She knew that Wu Bosun was already downstairs. They must have found the dead body and all of them would be crying. While going down the stairs she met people who were coming upstairs in panic. She heard them saying,

"What an unfortunate occurring?"

"Yes, poor one, this was her debut movie."

"Such a pretty face."

"Who will Lu Dao now choose?"

"Perhaps he will close the project."

"I don't think any actress would like to star in this movie now. This movie is jinxed."

Ru Shishi chuckled inside. Road to success was clear now. She reached downstairs and then walked all the way to the place where there was a large crowd.

"What happened? Have they found Feng Xinying?" she asked with a sad expression.

When Feng Xinying could no longer hold her grip on the railing, she fell and shrieked loudly. As she started going down, she closed her eyes, waiting for the death to embrace her.
