"I don’t remember." The blankness in Song Chi’s eyes didn’t seem like acting. He put down the materials and said despondently, "Maybe I’m really just leftover debris from Rashomon."

"Do you remember what accident led you to be rescued by the Manor Master of the Underground Beast Fighting Arena?"

Upon hearing this, Song Chi frowned even more deeply.

He shook his head and said, "I vaguely remember that before I lost consciousness, I was on a bloody battlefield. When I woke up, I found myself at the resort."

"If you don’t remember, then take your time to think it through."

Xu Xingguang stood up from her chair, staring at Song Chi, who was lying on the bed like a turtle resting, and suddenly said, "You’re injured now, so rest first. Once you’re mostly healed, you’ll need to start working."

Song Chi asked her, "What do I need to do?"

"At the moment, my place is short of a handyman." After thinking for a moment, Xu Xingguang said, "The medicinal herb garden is overgrown, so you’ll need to take care of the weeding. When the herbs are mature, you’ll need to help dig them up, dry them, and process them."

"When someone in the Guard Team takes leave and needs a substitute, you’ll fill in. When Sister Linlin needs to rest, you’ll handle the housekeeping."

"In short, wherever you’re needed, that’s where you’ll go!"

Xu Xingguang patted Song Chi’s back, hitting precisely his severely injured left lung.

Song Chi’s frown deepened with the pain, and he heard Xu Xingguang say, "Song Chi, follow me, live and do things honestly. I’ll help you figure out your identity and find your family."

"If you perform well and can reform, I can be your guarantor to apply for a Xia Country resident ID card for you."

"In the future, you won’t have to hide like a mouse anymore."

Song Chi was utterly surprised.

He gazed upward at Xu Xingguang, with a trace of hope hidden in his somber eyes. "Can I really become a free, legal citizen of Xia Country?"

Although he had forgotten his past, he knew he certainly didn’t have legal citizenship; otherwise, the Manor Master of the Underground Beast Fighting Arena wouldn’t have toyed with him like a dog.

Even the Underground Beast Fighting Arena cannot overstep Xia Country’s laws and take lives indiscriminately. They must obtain a voluntarily signed life-and-death waiver from the contestants before they can become their masters.

But Song Chi had never signed a life-and-death waiver.

That could only mean one thing—

He didn’t have a legal identity at all.

Xu Xingguang stated firmly, "Of course."

Xu Xingguang had a kind of charisma that instinctively made people want to believe in her.

Song Chi stared at her for quite a while before saying, "I’ll work hard, definitely not do anything illegal. I’ll strive to earn a legal citizen ID of Xia Country."

"Alright."

After handling Song Chi’s issues, Xu Xingguang spent a few more days custom-making suitable skincare products for Cheng Xizhou.

Having done all this, Xu Xingguang prepared to set out for West Continent City.

Actually, the film crew had already arrived in West Continent City a week ago and started filming.

But because she was delayed by Song Chi’s matters, she had missed out.

Xu Xingguang secretly arrived in West Continent City and took a cab to the star-rated hotel rented by the crew.

Upon arriving at the hotel, she called the director to inform them that she had reached West Continent City.

Learning that the head scriptwriter had finally arrived, the director gave the entire crew a day off and led them back to the city of West Continent City for a welcome dinner for Xu Xingguang.

During the feast, everyone toasted and chatted, thoroughly enjoying themselves.

After dinner, the crew members returned to the hotel together.

To cut costs, the crew provided suites only for the main actors. Most of the other actors shared a room between two, while the assistants stayed three to a room.

The male lead, Fang Jinsu, was a die-hard mahjong addict, always wanting to play whenever he had the chance.

There was a typhoon passing through West Continent City tomorrow, so for safety reasons, the crew decided to take a day off.

Thinking there was no need to rush work early tomorrow, Fang Jinsu’s mahjong addiction surfaced again, so he called out for players in the WeChat group.

The director said: [You all play, the storyboard writer and I have to work overtime.]

Cheng Xizhou then said: [Brother Fang, count me in.]

Other junior actors also eagerly volunteered.

Xu Xingguang suddenly chimed in, asking: [Playing mahjong, huh? Mind if I join?]

Seeing Teacher Xu volunteer to join, none of the junior actors dared to make a sound.

Fang Jinsu, who had been ignoring those junior actors, quickly replied to Xu Xingguang: [Teacher Xu, come on over, we’re waiting for you in room 2202.]

The hotel suites were concentrated on the 22nd and 23rd floors. Xu Xingguang and Cheng Xizhou stayed on the 23rd floor, while Fang Jinsu, the director, and several other male actors of high status stayed on the 22nd floor.

Xu Xingguang held her phone, opened her room door, and ran into Cheng Xizhou, who was also ready to go downstairs to play cards.
