On the way to find the director, Xie Qi gave Bai Yize some instructions.
Xie Qi: "Once I return, I will recover your soul as soon as possible."
Bai Yize: "Didn't you say our souls were in the underworld? How are you going to find them?"
Xie Qi: "I can open a passage to the underworld, but I’m not yet certain if a human like me can enter."
Bai Yize: "I don't understand. This is too mystical—more mystical than anything my grandfather ever told me. I never even believed in the underworld before."
Xie Qi: "If you can't wrap your head around it, don't try. Just focus on your competition; leave the rest to those of us who know the craft."
Bai Yize hesitated for a moment, then blurted out, "So... is my brother really your predestined romantic match, or did you just make that up?"
Xie Qi: "It's real. Absolutely true."
Bai Yize: "But you're both men. Has the Old Man Under the Moon become that progressive?"
Xie Qi: "Uh... even the Old Man Under the Moon has to keep up with the times, right?"
Bai Yize: "Then what about my love life?"
Xie Qi: "You’re still a hundred and eight thousand miles away from that. Just focus on being an idol for now."
Bai Yize: "Oh."
Xie Qi: "Why don't you head back? I can find the director myself. Once I retrieve your soul, I’ll contact you, and you’ll need to make a trip home."
Bai Yize: "Alright."
