Episode 1: Round One, Stage Two, Part 4

Repeat scene:

He gently took it from her and opened the lid. The smell from her cooking made his stomach growl. Gong Xi smiled, hiding her internal struggle of keeping her heart steady. During the whole thing, they hadn't notice that a certain pop star was glaring at them from the side.

Gong Xi watched Lian to make sure that he was eating before she could eat herself. It's only right for a newcomer like her to wait until her senior starts eating first before she eats. Lian took a bite of the chicken and flashed her a smile in satisfaction. Gong Xi smiled back, glad that he liked it. She started to eat her own lunch happily. Mr. Du stayed quiet, chewing and watching the whole thing. He knew that Lian likes Gong Xi and Gong Xi cares about Lian. Why won't they admit, Mr. Du wondered.

Gong Xi was still nervous around Lian but didn't show it. In Wan Lixue, Mulan gets arranged to be married to Jun Cheng who is... Lian's character. Jun Cheng came from a very wealthy family who used to be business partners with Mulan's parents. So that means that they'll be having plenty of scenes together.

Lunch break ended. The next scene was a short one with only Gong Xi in it. She still wore her school uniform outfit but now she had to walk through the woods. Mulan walked through those woods many times ever since she was little so she would be an expert in maneuvering through the trees to her secret spot near the stream. In the script, flowers grew near the stream and every time Mulan sat by the stream, she would pick up a flower and make a wish with each petal, plucking it gently and let it float away with the current.

Relax, Gong Xi. Just pretend that you're walking in Taidong to meet Corn, Gong Xi assured herself as she neared the woods. She kept walking until the director told her to stop and waited for the que to start walking into the woods.

"And... Action!" Director Hong Long shouted.

Gong Xi walked slowly through the trees, twisting through them, avoiding roots beneath her feet, touching the closest tree to her. You're getting closer, Gong Xi, her imaginary forest fairies told her. The sound of water calmly running came closer. Gong Xi smiled, walking faster, moving through bushes that hid her spot. She sighed happily, squatting down near the stream to run her hand through the gentle water. Then she shook the water off, picking a bright pink flower and twirled it around. She stared at it longingly, gingerly plucking one petal, rubbing it between her thumb and index finger, then dropped it in the water.

"I wish nothing will go wrong," Gong Xi said in almost a whisper, staring after the petal floating away.

After a short moment, the director called, "Cut! Next scene now."

Gong Xi stood up with a smile, dusting herself off. "That was pretty good, Gong Xi," Shu Fang said to her. "And it's just one line. So much emotion. How did you do it?" They walked back to the boarding house for the next scene.

"Well... Mulan worries that if she screws up then her family won't ever forgive her and she'd let everyone down. I felt like that... In fact, I still kind of feel like that... Sometimes," Gong Xi said. She thought about how she would cry because she was expected by her mother to get 100% on everything. That's why it was a habit of hers to overwork herself. But now she has something that would wipe the tears away... Corn.

"Okay, this scene is where Jun Cheng meets Mulan's parents about the arrangements. Take your places everyone," Director Hong Long ordered.

Lian took his place in the center of a beige sofa, facing 'Mulan's' parents who both sat on a similar colored sofa. A white coffee table separated them, three sets of tea cups placed in front of each person. Lian wore a casual suit, his bangs combed down. He sat up straight with a calm expression, a small smile on his lips.

"And... Actions!"

"Ah, so you're Jun Cheng? You've grown up so much since the last time we've seen you," Mulan's father remarked.

"Thank you, sir, and you haven't really change in looks since then. Both of you," Jun Cheng -Lian- said with a charming smile.

"My, my, you have such manners...," Mulan's mother commented, patting her hair. "So have you remembered much about Mulan?"

Cheng paused. "Just a little. It was a long time ago, after all... But I do remember how smart she was... Like you," he added, looking at her father.

Her father smiled at the compliment. "Anything else?" He asked.

Another pause. "Well... I remembered seeing a little girl from my window when I visited here. A girl picking all the pretty colored flowers in the backyard. Is that her?"

"Yes. It is. Mulan loved to pick flowers," her mother agreed. "So... Are you up with being arranged to marry Mulan?"

"Yes," Cheng said without hesitation. "I don't see a reason why not, is there?"

The couple in front of him chuckled, a small hint of nervousness. "I guess not. Well, welcome to the family, son," Mulan's father said with a big smile. He stuck out a hand for Cheng to take. He took it firmly and shook it.

"It would be my honor to marry your daughter, sir," Cheng said smoothly.

"Cut! Great job. We're finishing this fast today. Lets keep it up!" Director Red Dragon announced. "Now on to Yi Chen and Li Mei's scene!"

"Get ready, Shang," his manager told him. "Your scene is up."

"I know, I know," Shang drawled, getting up from his seat and rehearsed his lines for the last time. "Okay, lets go."

"Now this scene is where Ling, your character, meets Li Mei. You need to act like it was love at first sight for you," His manager, Yang, reminded him.

"Yeah, yeah. But why do I have to be working for that guy in the movie?" Shang whined. "That's not even an important role."

"It is, actually. Ling falls in love with Li Mei but she gets jealous of Mulan that she gets to marry Jun Cheng who is in love with Mulan. You're part of a love triangle."

But it's not the love triangle I wanted, Shang grumbled in his head. The love triangle he wanted was Lian loving Gong Xi but she loves Shang. He had tried to think of ways to get Gong Xi back without offending her or have her cry or explode. He wasn't even confident that she still had feelings for him. The way that her and Lian are together made Shang's blood boil. What had upset him the most is how it seemed that she no longer have any type of feelings; love or hate. No trace of him in her heart. His hands tightened into fists then loosened. I'll have to show her what I can do, he decided, then we'll see what happens.

Fei Li Hua and came back in time for her scene with Shang. She still wore her school uniform, too, sitting under tree that her and Gong Xi sat under earlier. Another book was placed on her lap. Yi Chen has to walk up to her and greet her. The moment she looks the, there's love in Yi Chen's eyes. Right then, Yi Chen decided that she was his soulmate and tried almost everything to make her fall for him. Because Li Mei likes Jun Cheng, his attempts are ignored.

Shang took a deep breath and let it out once Director Hong Long cued action. He started to walk towards Fei Li Hua, immediately stopping in front of her. Shang imagined her as Gong Xi instead since Shang is the one that just realized that he has feelings for her but there's a possibility that she loved someone else.

"What do you want? You're blocking my light!" Fei said, shooing him away. She looked up and right then Shang was supposed to have love and adoration in his eyes and smile. But he didn't. He just had no feeling. Even if he imagined her as Gong Xi it just wasn't the same. Shang stayed silent.

"Cut! NG, Bu Po Shang," Director Hong Long shouted.

Shang closed his eyes and sighed. This is going to be a long day.

Gong Xi watched as Shang got yet another NG from the same scene. Shang growled in frustration. Lian stood next to her. "Good job today, Mr. Lian," she said to him.

"You, too, Gong Xi. You're acting is really improving - almost realistic," Lian said, crossing his arms. He gave Gong Xi one of his gentle smiles making her heart beat faster. Automatically - almost too naturally - she smiled back.

"Thank you, Mr. Lian." She didn't want to admit that she was sucked in to his acting again like every other time she watched him act. "So... Lian..." Lian looked at her to show he was listening. "I didn't really get a chance to ask you how your other movie went. How did it go?"

"It went great," Lian said. He found it cute how she's still considerate of others and he felt special that she was especially towards him. He remembered the day he won the poll for the man that all the women in the nation wants to hug and he was asked what type of women he was looking for. His response was gentle, considerate, smart and hardworking. Gong Xi is all of those things.

"Did you have time to eat?" Gong Xi asked. Lian gave her a look. "I... I'm just wondering because I know how busy you are and you hardly have any time to eat and it's really unhealthy, so...," she added quickly.

Lian looked away and covered a laugh with a cough. Then he looked back at her and said, "Were you really that worried about me?"

"Well... yes. I mean, an actor should always take care of their body and... why are you smiling at me like that? Are you laughing at me!" Gong Xi demanded, frowning.

Lian looked down and released his laughter. "I'm... I'm sorry," he apologized between laughs. "It's just that I'm not used to hearing someone care about me that much." He seen Gong Xi's angry look. "Look, I'm not making fun of you. I'm really grateful, Gong Xi."

"Really? You're... grateful?" Gong Xi's face relaxed, her anger easily slipped away.

"Of course," Lian said, putting a hand on her shoulder. She smiled up at him.

Shang watched them from under the tree, seeing Lian laugh at something Gong Xi said, seeing them smiling at each other, seeing Dun He Lian's hand on top of Gong Xi's shoulder. Shang looked at the girl that he left broken hearted. She was always there for him and ever since he got popular, he hasn't been very kind her and yet she still stood by his side. She would comfort him when something went wrong and he would get mad at her. She would put up with him all that time... And now she's gone from Shang's side - and now at Lian's side. Shang's fists tightened.

You will pay, Dun He Lian, he thought, just wait and see.
