Ye Ming cleared his throat and said, "The name of the song is 'Trouble Caused by the Moon.'"

This was a song with a rather explosive rhythm. Ye Ming first started tapping his own rhythm with his hands.

It's all your fault, falling in love with me so easily, making me unknowingly indulge in the vanity of being loved.

It's all your fault, your affection for people is a kind of **.

It's all your fault, your eyes always hide a mist that makes people both love and pity.

It's all your fault, your infatuated dream is like a spell.

After being loved by you, who else could I be foolish for?

I admit, it's all the moon's fault...

After the song, Director Yuan Dewang frowned, deep in thought, not saying whether it was approved or not, and the room fell silent.

Ye Ming could even feel his own heartbeat; this step was crucial for him.

After a long hesitation, Yuan Dewang finally shared his thoughts: "The song is good, indeed related to the moon, and the rhythm is very dynamic, suitable for the beat of a gala. However, the title, 'Trouble Caused by the Moon,' for the Mid-Autumn Festival, is a bit abrupt. I wonder if the leaders will agree."

He pondered, thinking that the Mid-Autumn Festival is about reunion, and a song like 'Trouble Caused by the Moon' might seem out of place. He wondered if the leaders would agree.

Finally, Yuan Dewang thought about why he was chosen for this Mid-Autumn Festival gala. It was to create something unique, especially as the first Mid-Autumn Festival after Hong Kong's return, which needed to be different.

This song seemed to have a more international flavor, somewhat out of place with the mainland's style, but it could highlight the integration of different styles.

With this in mind, Yuan Dewang nodded and said, "Personally, I think it's fine. Since it's 1997, you're lucky. The leaders want a different Mid-Autumn Festival gala, so it's your luck. In the past, your song wouldn't have made it to the gala. However, we still need to hear the leaders' opinion. I'll take the song back and see what they think. If it's approved, I'll notify you by tomorrow afternoon, and you'll need to come for a rehearsal the day after."

Some things were not up to Director Yuan, so he still needed to consult the leaders to see if the song could be included in the Mid-Autumn Festival gala.

After Ye Ming returned, Zhao Wei and the other two seemed a bit discouraged, waiting there, looking like the results were out.

Seeing their mood, Ye Ming realized the results weren't good and asked, "Are the results out?"

Zhao Wei said helplessly, "The results can be alleviated within three days. The experts said the best outcome would be to cover the small red spots with makeup, but they can't guarantee the extent. Also, if you continue using those accessories, the condition might worsen. By the way, how did your side go?"

Ye Ming thought for a moment and said, "The director原则上 is okay, but he needs to consult the leaders. You'll get the news by tomorrow afternoon. If not, I'll continue filming."

Getting on the Mid-Autumn Festival gala wasn't that simple, even with Yonghua Film's public relations. It depended on whether the gala needed it. Everything had to serve the gala.

The expert prescribed three days of medication, saying that if there was improvement after three days, it would be good luck. If not, further treatment would be needed.

Further treatment meant temporarily stopping the filming of "The Story of a Love." Stopping the three main actresses at the same time was impossible.

Ye Ming knew that the director, and even Aunt Qiong Yao, would never allow such a thing to happen.

He opened the system and asked, "How can I quickly treat skin allergies?"

The system提示: "Instant Effect Mask, available in the Prop Store for 5,000 each, can quickly resolve skin allergies caused by various reasons."

A solution was found, but how to explain the prop, Ye Ming thought for a moment and said, "Actually, I have a method that can quickly achieve the effect. I know an old Chinese doctor who is very skilled in this area. He has a natural mask that can have an instant effect."

Fan Binbin, somewhat dissatisfied, said, "Brother Ming, you know an old Chinese doctor, why didn't you say so earlier? We had to find one expert after another."

The young girl was clearly not happy that Ye Ming hadn't mentioned it.

Ye Ming smiled bitterly and said, "There's a reason. The old doctor is a unique person, without a medical license, and technically, he's practicing illegally. I wouldn't seek his help unless it was absolutely necessary. Also, you need to be brave enough to use it."

Illegal practice, Zhao Wei hesitated for a moment and said, "Do you have confidence in your friend?"

Ye Ming nodded confidently and said, "I can guarantee it, absolutely no problem. I've seen the effect of the mask, and it's very good."

Lin Xin was still hesitant but finally nodded and said, "It can't get much worse, so let's try our luck. When should we go, now or tomorrow?"

Ye Ming waved his hand and said, "You can't go. Unique people have their own quirks. He won't see outsiders. I'll go to him, but don't worry, I'll be back soon."

After a round, Ye Ming felt the time was right and drove back with three masks.

Fan Binbin curiously looked at the three products with no manufacturer, no phone number, and no ingredients, just a small bottle that looked like it was made of jade, clear and translucent, with a thick liquid inside that emitted a mysterious milky white light, which could convince some people.

Fan Binbin didn't give Ye Ming any face, looking skeptical and about to open the bottle.

Ye Ming quickly stopped her and said, "Wait, the old doctor said that once opened, if not used within ten minutes, the effect will be lost. If not used within three days after preparation, it will also be ineffective. I suggest you use it when you go to sleep tonight. By tomorrow morning, everything will be back to normal."

Fan Binbin clutched the bottle and threatened, "I'll trust you this time, but if it doesn't work, we're not done. Even a fellow townsman won't give you face."

The next day, a sharp scream came from the dormitory. Fan Binbin, wearing a cartoon pajama, was banging on Ye Ming's door.

At this moment, Ye Ming arrived with soy milk and fried dough sticks and said, "What are you doing, morning exercise? If my door is damaged, the company will deduct my salary."

Fan Binbin, beaming, said, "Brother Ming, the stuff you brought really works. Overnight, all the red spots on my face disappeared. Sister Wei and Sister Xinru's allergies are also gone. It's amazing. Brother Ming, tell us the truth, what is it? Introduce us to this amazing old doctor."

Actually, it was the system's "Instant Effect Mask," which worked instantly.

But Ye Ming didn't want to be too shocking, so he had the three main actresses use it before bed. After a night, the effect was achieved, but it wouldn't be so unbelievable if it spread.

After all, some allergy symptoms could disappear in three to five hours, or even one to two hours, which wasn't impossible.

Zhao Wei was the second to come out and gave Ye Ming a pat on the shoulder and said, "Not bad, hiding such a good treasure. If you had brought it out earlier, it would have been fine. Thanks this time."

Lin Xinru, who came out afterward, was more careful and said, "Such a magical thing must be expensive. You can't pay for it."

Ye Ming said generously, "It's not worth much. Since we're in the same production, we should help each other. Mentioning money would hurt feelings."

Zhao Wei said bluntly, "Right, Ziwei, you don't think this thing can be bought with money, do you? I'm sure even if you have money, you might not get it. So don't mention money to Ye Ming. This time, I owe you a favor. If you need anything, just say it, and I'll do it without hesitation."

Since Zhao Wei had said so much, Lin Xinru couldn't say much more. This was the first time she truly felt part of the "The Story of a Love" team.

Ye Ming smiled and said, "As friends, we shouldn't be so calculating. However, to be safe, we should still go for a check-up to see the effect. If the expert says it's fine, we won't have to worry."

Although seeing is believing, the three main actresses still followed Ye Ming to see the expert.

It was the same expert from yesterday, a very famous expert in the industry, whom many people in the industry would seek through connections.

The expert saw the three main actresses fully recovered and put down the patient he was treating and said, "You're completely cured? This is impossible, this isn't scientific. According to the reports from yesterday, your level of allergy should take at least three days to control, let alone cure overnight."

A middle-aged woman sitting nearby, wearing sunglasses, seemed impatient but became quiet again when she heard the expert's words. She was also suffering from an allergy due to the environment and had come to see the expert through a friend's recommendation.

For a woman, appearance is like a second life, which is true in a certain sense.

But at this moment, the young Fan Binbin couldn't contain her excitement and said proudly, "You don't know, my brother Ming found an old Chinese doctor who made a mask. One night, our allergies were gone."

The expert, though skeptical, couldn't deny the facts. The allergies were gone overnight, which was a miracle. In his years of practice, he had never seen such a case.

The middle-aged woman immediately came over.

The expert, very respectfully, said, "Mrs. Li, I apologize. If you don't mind, I'd like to re-examine these three patients."

Mrs. Li nodded and said kindly, "Doctor, you do as you please. I'm very interested in your story, children. Here's my business card."

A light blue business card with a gold-embossed name and a phone number.

The name was in traditional Chinese characters:

【Lin Huijia】
