A/N: The story wouldn't go completely like the manga since the dram skipped a chunk full and Gong Xi already got over Shang and accepts falling for Lian. I might make a plot up. I'm just upset that they stopped after 15 episodes and never had enough jealousy action from Shang. I might add in Vie Ghoul... I actually hoped they'd be in the drama. It'd be cool if Vie Ghoul would be the rest of Super Junior-M. I'm going to skip a little ahead so that she's already filming Box R and Amamiya(?) [Qi Shu Fang] is in Love Me section.
Character: Gong Xi/Kyoko, Qin/Moko, Ren/Lian, Sho/Shang, Director Shen/Director Sawara(sp?), Qi Shu Fang/Amamiya(sp?), Yangyang/Sho's manager, Mr. Du/Yashiro, Fei Lihua/Erika, Mei Shen/Mimori, Qing Yuan/Natsu, Taidong/Kyoto

And don't forget Bu Po Shang, who realizes how much he really misses Gong Xi and wants her back. Another Extravagant Challenge begins!

Episode 1: Round One, Stage Two
Gong Xi skipped into the building of L.M.E. with a cheery smile. It's been a month since she had finished filming Dark Moon and it surpassed the previous Ahn Yue. Plus, she's starring in a drama called Box R as a bully. It was a bit challenging since the director asked for a Wei Xu feeling but make the character different and there was also her co-actor, Qi Shu Fang, who thinks she can only do Wei Xu and is just a fake talent. But now they're friends. Even though she already debuted, she still had to work in the Love Me section and so does Nan Qin and now the new Love Me section member, Shu Fang. Director Shen had said that they'll see if they should continue to stay in Love Me when the President of L.M.E. comes back. When he did, he said, "You three are not yet ready... but I do see some progress. Give it a few weeks and see if you three progress more. Then maybe... Qin and Gong Xi will have their own manager." So because of that, they still need to do missions.
She slowly walked through the building, stuck in thought. One of the televisions in a room started to play the commercial with her and Qin. She smiled. Auditioning for that commercial was one of her best experience she ever had. Gong Xi was glad that Qin was her partner and no one else or else Qin would make it but would be paired up with someone else in Gong Xi's place. If she wasn't paired up with Qin, she wouldn't have the opportunity to be in Bu Po Shang's Music Video and get notice by the director of Dark Moon and act along side Dun He Lian.
"Gong Xi," Mr. Du said from behind her. Gong Xi jumped, quickly turning towards the source of the voice. She backed away when she saw who was with him.
"Ah, uh... Mr. Du..., Mr. Lian, hello," she said nervously, bowing slightly. "I thought you were filming a movie out of the country."
"We were," Mr. Du answered. "We just flew in today to shoot a small movie." The manager glanced at Lian, waiting for him to speak. He looked back at Gong Xi, noticing her odd behavior.
"Mm... Well," Gong Xi muttered. She fidgeted with the sleeve of her bright pink uniform. "I, uh..." She had been hesitant near Lian lately. Since now, her feelings has been growing and her heart beats fast near him. But, of course, he's her senior and she's a kid to him, and he had said himself that it doesn't matter if a girl's parents or friends disapprove or anyone else does or whatever age she is, he would find a way to lock up his heart. It was as if he's scared to love.
"Are you okay?" Lian asked, concerned.
Gong Xi stepped back, waving her hands. "No! I mean yes! Yes, I am. I'm fine! You don't have to worry about me for nothing." Lian frowned, unconvinced.
Mr. Du watched the exchange, smirking to himself. Then he checked his watch. "We need to go, see you later, Gong Xi."
"See you later." She watched as Mr. Du and Mr. Lian walked away.
Good, she thought, my heart is slowing down, yet - it still aches a little to see him walk away. No, Gong Xi! You must concentrate on your acting! If you want Mr. Lian to continue seeing you as a worthy rival and colleague, you need to focus! He reminded of Corn so much then... Focus Gong Xi!
Workers around her stared at her in fear and confusion as she walked passed them talking to herself and shaking her head vigoriously to try and clear her thoughts.
"Gong Xi, you're an actress now, you shouldn't be behaving like this," A familiar voice scolded her.
"Qin!" Gong Xi hugged the owner of the voice.
"Too tight," Qin struggled to say. She sighed when she was released. "Was that Lian that walked away?"
Gong Xi nodded, looking back where he walked away. Like Mr. Du, Qin smirked when she wasn't looking. She knew there's something between and they don't even see it.
"Come on, Director Shen said he has a mission for us," Gong Xi said, pulling on Qin's sleeve. She changed the subject, Qin noticed. Qin let her best friend drag her to Director Shen's office. Qi Shu Fang was already there. Shu Fang waved at them and they waved back with a smile.
"Good morning, Director Shen," they both greeted with a bow once they entered his office.
"Ah, Gong Xi, Qin, good morning," Director Shen said, "Please sit." They did so, taking the chairs across from his desk. Shu Fang sat between them. "Now as you know I have a mission for you three. L.M.E. along with other companies decided to work together on a movie production. We are combining the staff, the music, and the actors in this group work to show we are not doing entertainment to bring the other companies down but to entertain others. Now there has been a small mix up with the schedule of the three actresses that was originally casted for this movie so they wanted you three to replace them." Director Shen smiled proudly, thinking because of him introducing the Chairman to Gong Xi, making Luo Li create the Love Me section and give Gong Xi and Qin another chance and also Shu Fang appreciate acting more.
"Sounds interesting," Shu Fang said, looking at Gong Xi and Qin, the first grinning hapily.
"It does," Qin agreed. "Where's the script?"
Director Shen pulled out three sets of the script for each of them and handed them over. "I'm so happy that you three will be apart of something like this!" Gong Xi eagerly flipped through the script. "And guess who else will be in this movie? Dun He Lian and Bu Po Shang!"
Gong Xi froze, dropping the script on the ground. Her friends looked at her in concern. "What!"
"Gong Xi, I thought you'd be happy," Director Shen said in confusion, scratching his head.
"I'm happy that I get to be in a movie since Box R is having a break but... It doesn't mean I'm looking forward to working with them," Gong Xi eplained hesitantly. She looked down in shame.
Shu Fang reached over to pick up Gong Xi's script. "It's alright, Gong Xi. Me and Qin will be there with you all the way," Shu Fang said with a small smile.
"Right," Qin said, "And it's been awhile since we acted along side each other, Gong Xi. Plus, it would give us more experience and get more noticed."
Gong Xi looked up and smiled at her friends. "Thank you," she said, grabbing the script from Shu Fang. "I guess we can go..."
"Great! I'll call the director right away to notify him! This is going to be great! I'll call you later for further instructions. You may go,
Director Shen dismissed them. The three stood up and bowed, exiting the office together.
A/n: Ah, not only will Gong Xi be in a movie with Dun He Lian, but with Bu Po Shang!
