[Love in Time]

[Episode 12]

What's wrong, Mrs. Lu?

You're looking for inspiration, right?

I'm fine.

How about this?

You should go shopping.

Buy a bag, clothes, or something. Okay?

What's wrong?

Don't you want to go shopping?

No.

Now,

everyone calls me Mrs. Lu.

It seems like I am nothing if I leave you.

There's nothing wrong with being Mrs. Lu.

You want to write novels.

I can help you publish your novels as you like.

Wouldn't you like that?

I don't mean like that.

So what do you mean?

I mean...

I don't want to be your accessory.

Sorry.

I want to go to the bookstore now.

We will talk about it tonight.

"I don't want to be your accessory."

What does she mean?

The more you care, the more counterproductive it will be.

President Lu, you must know what she wants the most.

Of course I know.

I respect her dream,

but I need to fulfill my responsibility as her husband.

You spoil Miss Su too much.

You do everything for her personally.

It can't reflect Miss Su's ability and value.

While performing your husbandly duties,

you need to consider her job and living space.

I think it would be better if you protected her in secret.

Do you like this novel, too?

Thank you.

Nowadays, people like to read online novels.

It's rare to see that people love this kind of classic novel.

I am an online novelist.

I just want to read the classics for inspiration.

So you are a writer.

Not entirely.

Even if you are not now, you will be in the future.

Do you like this novel?

Well, you should take it.

Ladies first.

The story is about a girl in the pursuit

of her self, freedom, and dignity amidst tribulations.

I think you may need it more now.

Perhaps.

It seems that your creation has encountered a bottleneck (blockage).

I seem to be stuck in a circle,

as if everything is arranged.

I just can't get out.

Read 10,000 books, travel 10,000 miles.

I think you may have lived a boring life for a long time.

You can go on a tour, see the world.

You should try something new outside.

I believe you will gain something.

Go for a tour.

Creation is closely related to life experience.

I think you will benefit a lot from a new environment

full of challenges and adventures.

Of course, that's my humble opinion.

President Kang, Director Guo wants to see you.

Sorry, I have to go now.

Thank you.

President Kang,

during your absence, Lu's Media did a lot of things.

For a company or a person,

the biggest competitor is nothing other than oneself.

Yes, you are right.

Director Guo agreed to shoot our film.

The first movie of Ruijin Group will go viral nationwide.

It's not easy to succeed.

Yes.

Director Guo, what do you think of this script?

President Kang,

it's about the love story of a super woman.

It's quite novel,

and it suits the audience's interests.

But I think something is missing.

Its emotional clue is not good enough.

It needs to be revised.

It may be a hit.

As I understand,

you have a good relationship with President Du of Taoran Literature Network.

We are elementary schoolmates.

His Literature Network has many female-orientated novelists.

Actually, you can talk to him.

Okay.

I have to go now.

All right.

Well, we should settle the leading actor as soon as possible.

Okay. Bye, President Kang.

Okay, bye. Bye bye.

Sister.

Stop drinking.

Go away.

Go.

Stop drinking. Stop drinking, Sister.

Go away.

Sister Ruo Xi, don't do this.

You know what?

A lot of people love you out there.

So many companies want to cooperate with you.

Sister.

We can have a talk with them, okay?

Lu Bo Yan.

I'll have you know

that I will be

better without you.

You will.

Yueyue, I'm really not in the mood for a contract right now.

Sister,

this boss is very persistent.

He tried to talk to me several times.

As far as I know, it's a big company.

They made a very generous offer.

Sister.

You haven't paid off Lu's liquidated damages.

Here it is.

We should go in and have a look.

We are here now.

Sister Ruo Xi,

this is President Kang Rui Cheng.

Kang Rui Cheng?

Kang Rui Cheng, Ruijin Group?

It's nice to meet you, Miss Han.

I have heard a lot about you.

It's nice to meet you, too.

Take a seat.

I will leave you two to talk.

Thank you.

Miss Han, you are an excellent actress.

You left Lu's Media so suddenly.

It was so surprising.

Sorry, President Kang.

I'm really not in the mood for a contract.

Miss Han, don't make any hasty decisions.

Take a look at this first.

What do you think of this project?

Oh.

It's not bad.

Miss Han,

I don't know why you left Lu's Media.

But I believe that, as long as you join Ruijin Group,

you will achieve more than you did in the past.

Those who have ignored you

will look at you with admiration till then.

Please consider it.

I have a condition.

Yes.

I need a grand signing ceremony.

Okay.

Happy cooperation.

Happy cooperation.

Popular actress Han Ruo Xi signs contract with Ruijin Group

after the termination of her contract with Lu's Media.

So Han Ruo Xi will make further progress in her career.

President.

Mrs. Lu.

Why are you here?

I didn't arrange a meeting today.

Come, sit down.

President.

-Water. - You should call me Jian'an.

It's the same.

I want to pause my novel now.

No, Mrs. Lu.

Your novel will be in the top ten soon.

If you pause it now, we will suffer a big loss.

We need to finish it at least.

Is it your stomachache again?

Then why do you think like that?

Thousands of readers are waiting for your updates.

My novel is indeed very popular.

But you know the reason.

I...

Of course I know.

Of course it's because you are a good and creative writer.

You have no gorgeous rhetoric.

But your words can resonate with readers.

The story seems to happen around us,

but it's out of reach and fascinating.

President Du.

You are so hysterical.

No, it's from the bottom of my heart.

My novel is very popular now;

I'm very happy.

However, I know it's not because of my writing

but rather because of "Mrs. Lu's" halo.

It's a shortcut.

But I want to get people's praise with my own efforts.

This is so unbelievable.

Jian'an, you are so self-aware.

You want to step back at this moment.

You will have...

What are your plans for the future?

I want to adjust myself for a while.

Then, I will make some plans.

If the big celebrity leaves now, I will suffer a great loss.

What's the matter?

No one wants to be the screenwriter in the crew.

It's tiring work.

What crew?

Well, I have a friend.

He is shooting a film project adapted from a novel.

He needs a screenwriter

mainly for the adaptation and adjustment of the follow-up script.

It's normal that young men want to avoid hard work.

Forget it.

You should reply to Director Guo now.

Okay.

Wait.

President, I want to go.

No, Mrs. Lu.

You just got married.

If you go now, you won't see him for a long time.

And you know the crew will work in difficult conditions.

If President Lu knew about this, you—

President.

Mrs. Lu wants to gain some experience in the crew.

Just let her go.

President.

As long as you promise me

that you won't worry about other things,

I will talk to Lu Bo Yan.

Jian'an.

You are determined.

Okay.

Just go.

Shortly after the marriage takes place, the couple is very ambitious.

They are busy with their own careers.

People hate it most when someone interrupts their work.

When they are too clingy or something.

Then they will have conflict.

Especially young women in the new era.

They pursue independence in thinking and finance.

They have their own professional pursuit.

Conflict.

Space.

You're back.

Bo Yan.

I want to tell you about my work.

Jian'an,

everyone has space for his own career.

As long as it's the right decision,

I will support you.

I...

plan to go work in another city.

For two months.

Okay.

Really?

It's just two months.

Two months?

Two months.

No way.

I disagree.

Listen.

Bo Yan.

Let her go.

Don't let her go.

Let her go.

Don't let her go.

Let her go.

Don't let her go.

Let her go.

Don't let her go.

President Lu.

What are you doing?

Counting.

Counting?

Well, Yue Chuan,

if I left the company to you for two months,

would that be okay?

No, President Lu.

The company can't do without you.

Yes.

Go back to work now.

Oh.

Where was I?

Whatever.

Let her go.

Don't let her go.

Let her go.

Don't let her go.

Let her go.

Don't let her go.

I won't let you go.

What's your interview for today?

This time, it's a movie.

A movie?

What movie?

The director is quite famous.

Based on my profile, he thinks I am great.

Really?

Of course.

Luo Xiao Xi,

do you mean this?

Yes, what's wrong with it?

No, I disagree.

You disagree?

Jiang Shao Kai, did I ask your opinion?

Are you itchy now?

I...

I am just worried about you.

It's just an interview.

I may not pass.

I am here for more interview experience.

You should wait for me outside.

Call me if you need me.

Okay.

"Why are you wearing your sister's pajamas?"

"You want to chase adrenaline,"

"and I'm just doing what you want."

"You little sl*t."

"You like the way I am."

Cut.

Director.

How was my performance?

Good conditions,

but the state is not okay.

No, give me another chance.

I promise I can do it better.

Wait for my reply.

Next!

Xiao Xi,

your performance really disappointed me.

Director, I'm a rookie.

I know I have many shortcomings.

I hope you can enlighten me more.

I will practice hard after I leave.

Actually, acting requires talent.

We need to liberate nature.

Well, I can help you.

Give me your hand.

Actors need to release nature.

Integrate...

Look at you.

So rigid.

You can't liberate yourself.

Come, let me help you.

Libe—

Director Fang,

mind your behavior.

Luo Xiao Xi, let me tell you:

Your acting is not good enough.

You may not pass.

But, as long as I am happy, the character is yours.

You have the wrong person.

Goodbye.

You ignorant little girl,

I am giving you a chance.

Don't you understand?

Let go.

Otherwise, I will count down from three.

Let go.

You are a chilly girl.

Three.

"Chilly"?

I will teach you a lesson.

Will you harass me?

I will beat you to death!

Gosh.

Am I a little chilly?

Stop, stop.

I will kill him!

Help!

Catch the crazy woman.

I will kill him today! Let me go.

What's going on?

He harassed me.

He harassed you?

Did you harass my woman?

Help!

Stop it.

Are you okay?

I am fine.

You brat, how dare you beat me!

Don't go. I will call the police.

Call the police?

Do you know who I am?

Who are you?

"I am your father!"

Stop it.

I have beaten him a lot.

I just can't help it.

Let's go.

Help! Someone beat the director!

Go.

Run.

What happened to you, Director?

Someone hit me.

Here.

Stop, don't run!

Don't run, stop!

You go over there.

Okay, go.

Here.

Jiang Shao Kai.

It's about what you said. Who is your woman?

I...

My tongue slipped.

I didn't expect you to man up just now.

Of course.

Do you like it?

It's your reward.

Remember to go to the next interview with me.

I'm at your disposal!

Hello, brother Qin.

It's me, Kai.

I met a scumbag.

Help me teach him a lesson.

Where's Jian'an?

She won't run away again, right?

Deviant!

Sorry.

We should forget what happened just now.

Lu Bo Yan.

I still want to tell you about work.

I have my own ideas and career plans.

I will join the crew for two months.

It's quite a long time,

but I hope you can support me.

I want to go to work with the crew.

I want to broaden my horizons

and increase my life experience.

I don't want to write novels that—

I know.

So do you agree?

No.

Do you want to slip away again?

You can go,

but I have a few requirements.

Requirements?

It's my previous love list.

You can go as long as you fulfill the requirements.

Okay.

I also have a request.

Why do we have to dress like this?

Because they're lovers' clothes.

I want to wear it with the one I—

I want to try it with someone.

So is this your first time wearing something like this?

Of course.

Are you tired?

No.

Thank you very much for today.

It's a happy day.

Actually, thank you very much for this period.

You did a lot for me.

I know all this.

Actually,

I'm just doing what I want to do.

Don't thank me.

After our relationship was exposed,

my novels gained more readers.

This is the first time that so many people are reading my novels.

I have been happy for a long time,

but we all know the reason.

Jian'an,

are you bothered by becoming Mrs. Lu?

No.

I like this novel,

but I want to gain recognition with my efforts.

I see.

I believe you will have better novels.

Don't forget:

I will always be your die-hard fan.

Okay?

This is great.

The image is great.

I think it's great, too.

President.

Director Guo is here, too.

Shao Kai.

You're right on time.

Hurry.

Come, Shao Kai, sit down.

President,

thanks to Shao Kai,

we are able to have so many in-circle resources.

It's so smooth.

We are friends.

He is a stinky brother.

Director Guo,

as I understand, you still need to find some actors for your movie, right?

Do you see this?

We are picking some now.

Great.

I have a friend who is very talented.

She has good conditions.

She just needs a chance.

I don't know if you have any interest.

I trust you.

I will arrange an interview for tomorrow.

It's a deal.

So we don't need these?

How did it go?

Is it not suitable?

It's okay.

We can try the next one.

I passed.

The director said I am very suitable for this role!

Really?

I knew it.

Of course.

I am very talented.

Shao Kai,

why don't you go in?

I...

I just dropped by...

to see a friend.

Director.

Okay, I will let you two talk.

Do you know each other?

Don't get me wrong.

Director Guo happens to look for actors.

I thought you might need it,

and I recommended you.

I promise

I didn't bribe him.

It's all because you have the strength.

Really.

Why didn't you tell me earlier?

I was afraid you would feel some psychological pressure.

You wouldn't want to lose face.

Thanks.

I will invite you to drink.

To drink?

It's not appropriate, right?

In broad daylight.

It's just some drinks.

Hello, everyone.

The novel will be paused for a while.

My Lady, don't abandon us.

There will be no sweetness in the future.

So sad.

How long will it be?

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

Rest assured,

I will be back soon.

Our Lady won't leave for too long. Please don't worry.

Thank you.

Yes, please rest assured.

Your readers will always be with you.

We will wait for you to come back.

Yes, we will wait for you.

Hello, Xiao Xi.

I'm leaving to work with the crew in Luochuan tomorrow.

For two months.

Luochuan?

Director Guo's film?

Yes.

Jian'an, let me tell you!

I will have a role in that film!

That's so great!

Let's go together tomorrow.

Sure.

We will live together soon.

See you at the station tomorrow.

Okay, see you there.

- Bye bye. - Bye bye.

Drink some milk.

It's good for your health.

What is this?

The temperature can vary greatly within a day.

Bring more clothes.

I'll just put it here.

Air is not good for the skin.

This is good for the skin.

Did you know that?

Okay, President Lu.

Good night.

Lu Bo Yan.

Uncle Xu.

Where are they?

Bo Yan,

I thought you went to work.

What are you doing?
