Soon after, Zhou Lei looked distant, and a tear dripped from the corner of his eye.

"The suppression of the White Flowers have failed."

Hearing the iconic line from the first season of the show, Lin Guiying let go of Zhou Lei's wrists and acted beside him. "...What do we do now?"

"We... quarantine the entire city!" Zhou Lei looked like he had just made a big decision. He turned his back against Lin Hanying.

Visibly startled, Lin Guiying tried to convince Zhou Lei to do otherwise. "B- but sir, you are in the city!" Her signal on the hologram projector got interrupted for a second.

"I don't care! The rest of the world is more important than my petty life." Zhou Lei didn't even bother to look at Lin Hanying's direction.

"B- but-!" Even though she felt Zhou Lei's anger from the previous statement, she still wanted him to live!

It was then that Zhou Lei looked at her with a face full of conviction. "Fumizaki, just do it!"

"D- doctor... Jinta, no..." Lin Guiying, who acted as Fumizaki, started crying profusely.

Zhou Lei, who acted as Doctor Jinta, turned around indifferently.

The pair didn't notice that both of their acting were out of this world that the crowd around them subconsciously focused on their performance instead of doing what they wanted to do here in the first place.

Besides, White Flower was a fairly popular series, so most of the people knew exactly what they were doing. The rest still watched though, because their acting was mesmerizing.

Zhou Lei lowered his head as a single drop of tear made its way out of his eye.

With this, the scene ended.
