Recording
In the middle of SueNan office,
Seated on the single couch is director Song, while seated on the long couch are SueNan and XiennaYan. Standing behind them are YangRan, ShinNa and LianBo.
Director Song, discuss with them the idea he would like for the music video. Coincidentally his idea is the same as what XiennaYan was thinking.
They were able to decide that for the flow of what will be the themes for the music videos, where they will shoot the video and when will they start.
It was also decided that for the song that XiennaYan wrote, they will use YangRan, ShinNa, and LianBo to depict 3 types of betrayal and the 3 of them will be the main actor for that song.
After they've discussed the shooting procedure, director Song left.

A day has passed, XiennaYan just arrived back at her apartment.
She felt so exhausted, as SueNan and her help YangRan, ShinNa and LianBo packed up the things from their old apartment, transferred it to the new apartment, it took them 4 rounds just to clear out everything. Afterward, they help in organizing for a bit before she goes home.
While she lay down on the sofa to take a rest, she heard a sizzle coming from her kitchen then she smelled something delicious.
Worried that she might have entered the wrong room, then suddenly realize her keys shouldn't have opened the door if it was not her apartment.
Before she could even think, if something was a miss, she saw MuChen coming out from the kitchen room.
"You're back late,"
"Hmm, just help my friends at moving out from their old apartment to the new one."
He looked at her and see that she's really exhausted, "You should have called for the movers if it'll make you this exhausted."
"We thought it was alright"
"Come on, stand up, I already made dinner, eat first, then you can go rest," He said while helping her sat up to stand.
MuChen has been coming to her house ever since that day he found out about her wound. He sometimes brings food or helps her cook food. They understood each other well, It's as if they were an old married couple.
After eating, he helped her put medicine on the wound just to make sure it did not open up.
Before leaving he said "take a good rest, if you're still tired tomorrow you can move it to the next day."
"hmm, wai- no, I have to record the songs tomorrow because we will be using it the following day for the music video shooting." She said realizing what he said.
"hmm, then take a good rest" he opened the door and stepped out "good night" before closing and going to his apartment.
"good night"

The following day
XiennaYan went directly to the basement where the recording studio is at. There she meets the music director, and the creator of the song, and also her vocal coach.
Before they began the recording, she warmed up her voice with the help of her vocal coach.
Inside the recording booth, she put the headset.
As the instrumental start to play, she readies herself to start for the first line.
She sings the first verse with a success, but the music director cut off the song and talk to her via the intercom, in the booth.
"That was a good take, but I wanted you to add more feelings to it, this is an enjoyable happy song, try imagining yourself when you're enjoying a nightlife party, that kind of joy." the music director explained to her.
"Yes, I understand, let me try again."
"good, I'll still save this one, just in case we can use it, let's start again."
The director played again the melodic song, and she was able to successfully get what the director wants to achieve for the song.
They recorded taking 2 or more re-takes not just for one song but for all the songs for the album.
The recording start around 8 am and they still haven't finished, it's almost past 4 pm.
SueNan, YangRan, ShinNa and LianBo also went to check on her during the recording but left after a while as they went to their work currently they have the same schedules and SueNan is going with them to ensure they will not be trampled by other big artists.
After the last song was recorded, they finished past 7 pm. and She went straight home.
