An: No reviews? :'( jk but anonymous reviews are welcomed too. Oh, and important: In the manga, Kyoko is 16 and going to high school. I notice that in the drama, they seem older than 16 and going to the University. So they're 20 (which makes Lian 24). Just to clear that up. Kind of confusing when the manga and drama are different. I'm making a drama mv but it'll take awhile.

Episode 4: Round Four, Stage Two, Part 2

Shang sighed in frustration as Mei Shin tried to cuddle up beside him. Mai Lin watched in amusement, sitting next to Qin and Shu Fang. Shang caught her laughing eyes, glaring at her. She just smirked in return. What made it even worse for him was that Dun He Lian was eating food that Gong Xi had made for him after they had did a kiss scene. Bu Po Shang would surely explode soon.

"So you're just a temporary manager," Shu Fang said to Mai Lin, "what do you actually do for a living?"

"Well," said Mai Lin. "I worked at a few places. I was a secretary at a family doctor's office, I went to the University for a few years until I graduated, worked over at my uncle's business for awhile, then do some photography."

"Whoa, you sound like Gong Xi. Always working and trying her best," Shu Fang said.

"I admire Gong Xi, she's a unique type of girl." Mai Lin looked over to Gong Xi who was eating beside Lian on a couch. She was happy.

"Gong Xi told me about you," Qin said, "she also thinks of you as a sister after she had helped you on a Love Me mission."

"Really? We only spent that much time together and she thinks of me like that?" Mai Lin asked.

"Well, she says she could relate to you. Even the struggle you're going through. I have a feeling she told you that you should join Love Me," Qin said, sounding annoyed. "She's too generous sometimes. That's what led her to be in Love Me. In fact, they made Love Me just because of her."

"Mai Lin, you said you went to the University, right?" Shu Fang said. "So how old are you?"

Mai Lin tucked a strand of loose hair behind her ear. "I'm 19, actually," Mai Lin muttered. She looked down, digging through her backpack as her phone rang. "Hello?" she answered. "Ah, Miss Song. It's good to finally get in touch with you. No you're not interrupting anything. Right, right. No, I'm just doing an errand for a friend for a few days. No, of course I'll have time to work on your requests. Do you have any more photos that you want me to add? Of course, Miss Song. Not a problem, I think I can fit that into my schedule. Is that all? Okay, Miss Song, have a good day." She hung up the phone, mumbling to herself.

"One of your jobs?" Shu Fang asked. Mai Lin nodded.

"Shang, I don't like that Li Hua girl," Mei Shin whined next to Shang. "She's too whiney." Mai Lin and Shang rolled their eyes at the same time.

"Are you always cooking lunch for me?" Lian asked Gong Xi once they had finished eating.

"Why not? You know how little you usually eat," Gong Xi scolded, "I take it upon myself to make sure you eat something." Lian grinned. Gong Xi blushed, hanging her head so she would hide it from him. He placed a finger under her chin and lifted her face. Their faces was so close. So close, Gong Xi thought, Oh no, so close. The kiss. The kiss...

I shouldn't be doing this

, Lian thought. All my efforts to pull this girl away from me... She just draws me in easily. No matter how hard I try, it'll only backfire on me. I don't want her to get hurt and I don't want to be the one that hurts her. "You think you don't deserve to be happy?" Boss's words still echo in my head. After what I did in the past, it'll only come back. This is torturing me!

Lian sighed, kissing her cheek instead. He drew away slowly. But I think that is as far as I can go.

"Everyone," Director Hong Long said, walking into the tent, "I am pleased to say that we are offically finished with Wan Lixue!" Many cheers erupted. The director held up a hand. "Now, I think that you all deserve a break. We'll notify you as soon as we know the premiere date. Now go." He made a shooing gesture, then left the tent.

Gong Xi jumped up running to Mai Lin's side. "You have to come watch it!" She said to Mai Lin, shaking her arm.

Mai Lin laughed. "Okay, okay. I'll try to make it for the premiere," Mai Lin assured her. Gong Xi grinned, surprising her with a hug. She laughed again, patting Gong Xi on the back. "I'll see you around, okay?" Mai Lin's phone began to buzz again. "I have to take this." She struggled to get out of Gong Xi's embrace, then took her bag and walked outside.

Mai Lin stared at the caller ID, gripping the phone hard. "Hello?" she answered.

"Are you sure you don't want me coming with you?" Mei Shin asked Shang, leaning her head on his shoulder.

Shang sighed. "Yes, I'm sure and there's nothing that can change my mind," he said, patting her head like a puppy. "I'm too busy to have time with you, I'm sorry." Mei Shin continued to whine like a puppy, begging him to stay with her. Shang looked around, noticing that Mai Lin wasn't in the tent any more.

He got up, ignoring Mei Shen's protests and checked outside. There Mai Lin was, sitting outside. Her head was tilted to the side, letting her hair go over one shoulder as she wrote something down in her schedule.

"Hey," Shang called. Mai Lin looked up, waving at him.

"All set to go?" she asked, getting up.

Shang stared at her face. "Why is your eyes puffy and red?" He asked, pointing at her face.

"Huh?" Mai Lin looked away. "That's weird. Come on, we should get going." She started towards the car.

"So what are you going to do after this?" Mr. Du asked Gong Xi once they were in the car. He sat in the back seat while Gong Xi was at the front with Lian.

"Well Director Shen will have to know that we finished the movie. Then I have to go back home. I'm not sure if we're going to receive another mission or not," Gong Xi said.

"Do you want me to drop you home later on?" Lian asked, giving her a sideways glance. "It's no problem."

"Hmm, you don't have to do that-"

"Gong Xi, a girl walking home at night is not safe. I'm driving you home." Gong Xi sighed in defeat. Lian's smile faultered when he caught his manager's smirk in the rearview mirror.

So after reporting to Director Shen, the Love Me section members were told that they won't be having any missions for now. Lian saw Gong Xi's smile when they got back in the car.

"What is it?" Lian asked, curious.

"We won't be having missions for awhile, which gives me time to attend the University again," Gong Xi said happily.

"Is that so?"

"Yes. But I hope that Mei Shen won't be there when I go back." Her mood sank. "She's still bothering me no matter how much times I told her I won't be going after Bu Po Shang. I just wish that she doesn't end up like how I was... but, I have an idea that might help her leave me alone. But you have to help me." She grinned shyly at him.

An: Okay, sorry, Writer's Block Disease again :( so short
