But how can she find the one when she is rowdy, unsentimental and not even girly?

Let's join Myldred in her exciting, funny and romantic adventure to a different world. Meow….

Lu Xiao Tian looked at Hana without answering her. He just smiled and repeated his question of asking her out.

Hana was perplexed and just acted as if she did not say anything. She accepted his invitation and asked if they could just eat inside their company. She was not too sure if her reputation inside reached out the outside world. It might be better to avoid being seen by some judgmental eyes.

It's not like she cared about that… Well, she did. But another reason for that was because of her mission. While contemplating it, it would be better to just eat inside their cafeteria.

Looking at the duo, the other employees could not help but to gossip within themselves. The two might be together a lot of times due to training but that was the first they saw them eating together.

"Hey, aren't you feeling awkward being stared at?" Hana really wanted to know what's the thought of those handsome men whenever they became the center of attention. They just acted cool with it and she believed that they were just pretending. Who would be comfortable being watched?

"I'm used to it. Well at first, it was kind of awkward, but I really don't have a choice. It is not like I should cover my face to avoid them, right?" 

Hana thought for a while if he was humoring her, 'I guess, he is.' She softly laughed to give him some face. 

"By the way, you will be leaving next week, right? Are your stuff ready to move out?" Hana was mostly within his office, but she did not see any boxes in there.

"Why? Can't wait to kick me out?" He joked again. 

Hana rolled her eyes. She just wanted to have an idle conversation, but he kept on giving jokes which were not funny. 

Seriously, she would be considering him now as a male god if not for those jokes because aside from being good-looking and hardworking, he was nice to her.

She read in other novels that whenever the lead was fat, if she was not bullied, she would be isolated.

She was not sure if it was because she came from a rich background hence she did not experience it… Or the original body did but she's just not aware it?

 "Am I making you feel uncomfortable with my jokes?" Seeing her reaction, Lu Xiao Tian couldn't help but ask that.

"Not really? Is just that you are not funny." Lu Xiao Tian laughed when he heard that. It might not be the first time he heard those sentences but coming from the woman in front of him, he could not help to look at her intently.

He was observing her these few weeks they had been together. He figured out that she was nice and hardworking. As he wasn't able to interact with her before even though their fathers had a good relationship and they worked in the same building, he was not really sure about her attitude. He heard those rumors outside, but he never paid it any attention.

Seeing that he was looking at her. Hana asked if there's something wrong with her face.

Lu Xiao Tian reached out his hand to a remove a grain on her face. Hana got startled but not to the point she would already plan for their wedding date.

"You should just tell me that there's a grain. Seriously, no need to do that romantic act."

"Romantic act? You think it's romantic?" 

Hana thought carefully and said, "Well, that's what I always see in some romantic movies. That should be considered as one, right?"

Lu Xiao Tian took some food from his plate and placed it on Hana's plate, "How about this one? Is this romantic?"

"No, it's disgusting."

“I am tired,” those were her words she said after finishing her job. She’s a strong, independent woman but she’s too tired not only physically but also mentally and emotionally so could someone please do her jobs on her stead?

After checking some novels to check for updates, she thought, “Can I also be like them and enter those worlds?”

‘Be careful of what you wish for,’ those were the words that came to her mind after understanding everything.

However, after doing everything and getting tired again, all she could say, “Boss, can I hug your thigh?”

Yu Gangan treated Elder Jiang to a meal and told him she was staying in Beijing. When Elder Huang heard this, he immediately invited her to help him.
That afternoon, he took her back to the Royal Medical Hall and arranged for her to consult there twice a week. He then took her to his pharmacy to study some difficult diseases with him.
In the end, she stayed there until Fang Zhihan picked her up in the afternoon.
After the two had dinner, they decided to watch a movie together. The tall, upright man was cool and handsome. He was wearing a black coat with a white shirt, looking cold, classy, and restrained with a demanding presence. Everywhere he went, he drew attention and made women's hearts flutter.
Yu Gangan hooked her arm around Fang Zhihan's and looked at his indifferent and calm expression. A playful look appeared in her eyes, "Did you always go out to watch movies with other girls in the past?"
Fang Zhihan pinched her nose and replied, "This is my first time."
Yu Gangan chuckled in surprise, "No way. You're more of a homebody than me. I already thought I didn't go to the movies enough."
"That's why you are the one that's leading today."
"Well then, why don't you go buy some popcorn?"
Fang Zhihan followed the direction that Yu Gangan was pointing and looked at the puffy pieces of food behind the counter. Without saying a word, he pulled her inside one of the theaters.
"We need to eat popcorn when we watch a movie."
"It's unhealthy."
Yu Gangan grumbled with disappointment, "But, everyone eats popcorn when they watch a movie. I never tried it before. Let me try it today."
Fang Zhihan looked at the sad expression on the woman's face and his steel wired heart immediately softened, "OK, but you need to eat less of it."
"OK."
Yu Gangan's eyes lit up and she almost drooled from the corner of her lips.
She immediately dragged Fang Zhihan to buy a box of popcorn before entering the theater together.
The movie they watched was funny yet sad. It was about a young woman that separated and reunited with her lover multiple times before eventually growing old together.
It also talked about the love between a father and daughter. The movie was humorous and clever, as well as romantic and touching.
In particular, when the female protagonist took her lover to see her father, Yu Gangan's eyes turned red and she almost cried.
Fang Zhihan turned his head and looked deeply into her eyes as he held her hand tightly.
After coming out of the movie, they slowly headed for the parking lot.
"Was the movie good?"
"Yes, the father and daughter were really touching."
Fang Zhihan suddenly stopped, hugged her in his arms, and asked with his hoarse and gentle voice beside her ear, "Have you thought about looking for your family?"
Yu Gangan froze for a moment before she replied with a smile, "I thought about it before, but not anymore."
"Why?"
"I was young before. But, I'm used to it now. Why are you suddenly asking this question?"
Yu Gangan's eyes were filled with curiosity. Underneath the lights, her face was extremely soft and pleasant. Seeing this, Fang Zhihan couldn't help but lean forward and kiss her on the lips.
This was a romantic and innocent kiss. He closed his eyes and held her in arms, "From now on, you have me."
Yu Gangan felt her heart soften. It was like she was surrounded by warm cocoa; silky, warm, fragrant, and pleasant. In a cheeky manner, she replied, "I also have my teacher."
Fang Zhihan's eyes darkened and he nudged her away. He then pinched her nose and proclaimed domineeringly, "Only me!"
Yu Gangan burst into laughter, "So domineering!"


Beautiful doctor of Chinese medicine, Yu Gangan woke up from a coma one day to a cold, mysterious man. "Excuse me, you are...?"
A pair of profound eyes focused on her and replied, "Fang Zhihan, your husband."
Did this man take her for a fool? He was obviously a fraud!
A little while down the track, he pulled her into his arms and whispered beside her ear, "Who am I?"
This time, Yu Gangan froze and replied, "Fang Zhihan, my husband."
If he was a patient, then she was his sweetest medicine...

As said by ALMIGHTY GOD, GODOPEDIAOLOGY decided to find solution for finishing sin, so he decided to start it in his own house. He decided to stay in his house for one complete day and night without doing any other work.
             
He got bored and decided to watch television and enjoyed watching songs. The songs were picturised in many places and since the television was a 50 inch big one and the songs were HD quality he felt like he was in those videos amongst the actors and actresses happily singing with his them he enjoyed for 4 hrs and then for the next 8 long hrs he enjoyed all sports, cartoons, movie trailers and their makings and best romantic movies.

The next thing that he felt like trying was series(serials). He for some strange reasons couldn't sustain even for one complete hour. He switched off the television and felt that all the programs had some percent of sin which varied but it was the daily soaps(serials) that really blasted his brain into pieces.

The series explained all types of sin. It gave them ideas of various sins and how it can be committed. Though the serials weren't given any grade like A, B, U/A and so on, still the idea of watching series proved as the worstest nightmare for him.

GODOPEDIAOLOGY understood that since the series were not censored like movies and just because it didn't have a censor committee as movies, the writer of all the mega series have written all shit imagination and are provoking sin amongst the people who watch it, not even sparing small childrens. The series explained everything in detail and even gave all criminal ideas like HOW A SIN CAN BE PERFORMED IN VARIOUS STYLE AND HOW CAN WE ESCAPE THE LAW BY USING ITS LOOPHOLES. The author concluded that SIN STARTS FROM THIS DAILY SERIES AND PEOPLE ARE GAINING MORE AND MORE BAD  KNOWLEDGE & IDEAS AFTER WATCHING IT, THEREBY INCREASING THE TRP RATE OF BOTH SIN AND VIEWERSHIP But the funny thing is that the GOVERNMENT IS CLOSING ITS EYES AND EVEN AFTER SO MANY YEARS TILL NOW NO ONE HAVE MADE OUT THIS SIMPLE ACT OF SIN WHICH HAS BECOME TOO BIG NOW, JUST LIKE A CANCER AND NOW NEITHER THE PRODUCERS NOR THE CHANNELS STOP RELAYING IN, NOR THE GOVERNMENT WILL STOP IT BECAUSE BOTH OF THEM ARE EARNING NICE INCOME IN THE FORM OF ADVERTISEMENTS, WHEREIN THE MODELS ARE THE PERFORMER AND PRODUCER ARE MONEY EARNERS AND WE VIEWERS ARE THE JOKERS.

So now GODOPEDIAOLOGY understand why HIS MASTER ALMIGHTY GOD ASKED HIM TO FIRST CLEAN UP THE GARBAGE. IF THIS GARBAGE ITSELF IS SO MUCH THEN HOW ABOUT OTHER GARBAGE OF THE WORLD. ONLY GOD ALONE KNOWS. Anyhow the bad time for GODOPEDIAOLOGY has already started and he doesn't know how long will it Haunt him.

So the moral of the story is YOU PAY FOR SOMEONE ELSE MISTAKES. Really it is matter of pity for GODOPEDIAOLOGY, Only ALMIGHTY GOD can save him.

Upon hearing her request, Sei almost agreed in a flash. However, upon remembering Davi was injured, he decided to reject her.
"You're hurt," he said.
"It's fine. I wasn't planning on going anywhere, just spend the remaining hours here with me. Let's binge watch movies. Is that acceptable?" Davi's eyes turned even more adorable as she pressed her palms together, begging like a little girl for her dad to buy her that pony she had been dreaming to get her entire life. Her way of pleading was definitely a lethal weapon that could knock anyone senseless and make one just agree to whatever she wished.
"Mm, let's do that." Sei finally replied after a while of watching her pleading face. With that, happiness and excitement instantly took over Davi's face. Well, it had been such a long time since she spent long hours just sitting down and watching movies, simply because she didn't want to watch them alone. Lately, Haru, her little brother who used to be her movie pal, started rejecting her using all the overused excuses to get away every time Davi asked him to watch with her, leaving her wondering and asking herself why.
Due to her injured feet, Davi then called the maids and asked them to set up the things she had in mind.
After a brief period of time, Sei was now carrying her towards the lounge. A huge television had been set up in front of a king sized, red bed. The gray curtains stopped the light coming in from outside and the silver chandelier emitted a soft light, making the whole lounge look simply romantic.
Sei then put Davi down and she leaned on the red headboard. Sei also sat beside her.
"The first movie I watched in cinema was, I think, a cartoon movie," she began. "What about you?"
"I never set foot in cinemas."
"Uhh… okay. Then consider this your first time. Now let's choose what to watch first. Action? Comedy? Love story? Or thriller?" she asked and Sei could only reply the words, "Up to you".
At that moment, Davi's plan of attack was to go back to basics. She realized it was not good to rush things after all, so she thought she would just relax, not think too much and just go with the flow.
Therefore, she chose what she thought was the easiest step listed in her courting plan. The only step that, in her mind, didn't require any calories to be sacrificed for brainstorming.
'Step #05; Just be yourself'
Hinari didn't say anything much about this step. She simply said; "Just show yourself to him and if he likes you the way you are, then you hit a jackpot." Davi understood what she meant and had actually been doing this step the whole time. The only difference this time was that she decided not to think about her notes, the next steps she should take and just spend the day naturally with him. After that, whatever happens, happens.
Davi then chose to watch the comedy show first.
At first, Davi was focused on the show, occasionally laughing. However, every time she laughed and looked at Sei, her laughter faded right away because Sei never reacted at all, as if he was just there looking at her, wondering why she was laughing. So Davi decided to stop looking at him and just focus on the movie.
Time went by and Davi started laughing really hard to the point that she was tearing up and gripping her stomach as she rolled around the bed. She even started ignoring Sei, telling herself that she should just think that she was watching the movie with her little brother, Haru, for the mean time.
At the climax of the movie, Davi started slapping Sei's shoulder as well as the pillow on her lap while laughing hard. Her world was completely immersed in the extremely funny show she was watching, while the man beside her sat silently and was motionless the whole time. His gaze wasn't even on the screen, rather, he was focused on the girl beside him as if she was the movie and the tv was simply nothing.
The next movie, which was a romantic comedy, started.
Davi occasionally giggled cutely and hugged her pillow tightly, making Sei feel even more curious. She even started pulling Sei's arm reflexively only to brush it away when the turn of events upset her. Then shortly after, she would clap her hands happily along with the crowd in the movie as if she was part of it, leaving Sei marvelling at these strange but adorable things she did during the movie.


19 years old Davi, married a stranger whom she never seen at all to save her little brother. After marriage she found herself being bound with a certain mission. 
Her mission is to seduce her stone cold husband who is never romantically interested with anyone and bear his child.

Maurvi's POV 

Why are you being so nice.. ?" Prachi asked Amit. 

" I don't know... I just don't want to leave you alone like this. Let me drop you, please. " She nodded. 

He slid into his car and went to drop her home. 

I stopped myself from going after her. I know she would not talk to me right now but I wanted to be close to her. I attended my class though I kept thinking about her. I knew she was feeling extremely bad right now. After the class, I went to her place but she didn't even come out of her room saying she is not feeling well. 

Her mom asked me what was wrong with her. I could not tell her anything. So I said that I didn't know anything. 

I came back home still engrossed in my thoughts. I opened the door and was planning to change and sleep when Gautam called me on the phone. 

" Hey Maurvi, where are you? come yaar we all are waiting for you. " Gautam said. 

" Come where? Oh, I am sorry. It totally escaped my mind. I will come in 5 to 10 minutes. " 

I washed my face and applied some lip color. Combed my hair again. 

I was about to lock the door when Gautam came. 

" Hey, what happened? I was just coming. " I said. 

" Yes I know but they both needed 5 minutes to resolve a problem. So, I came out. " 

" Oh, Ok !! " I smiled. 

" What happened to you? " 

" Nothing special... Prachi knows about Naman now but is still not talking to me. I am coming from her place. She didn't even talk to me. " 

" How did she get to know about him?" 

" I took help from someone. He gave all the proofs to Prachi. " 

" Oh !! Good. Who helped you? " 

" I asked Amit to get all the information about Naman and he did that in just 3 days. His friend's cousin had an affair with Naman earlier. " 

" Ok, we will talk about this later on. Let's go, I am really excited about watching the movie. 

" Yes, let's go... I really need to distract myself. " I said and we went to his place. We saw that Vikram was saying sorry to Sandhya. 

She blushed beautifully. She just shook her head and started walking away from him. But Vikram pulled her into a circle of his arms. 

" Hello, guys... can we come in, please??" Gautam asked from outside. 

" Yes, you may. " Vikram smiled at us. 

" Hi, How are you? " I asked them. 

" We are good, how are you? " Vikram said to me and Sandhya hugged me. 

" You must be hungry, let's have some food first. " Sandhya said and went to the kitchen. I also followed her. 

Both of us came out with Vada pav. Vikram looked at Gautam and both of them burst out laughing. 

" Ok, this time... Please tell me which one is spicy ?" I was surprised at what they were talking about. 

Sandhya smiled and said, "None of these is spicy, take anyone. " Vikram picked up one and was about to bite it when Gautam snatched it and started eating. Why were they behaving like this? 

" Sorry but I can't take a chance again..." Gautam said and they laughed. Sandhya explained to me how she gave an extra spicy Vada pav to Gautam as he was flirting with her. So, I came to know as to why they were behaving like this. I laughed at them. 

I laughed at that but I felt a bit bad that he flirted with her. I should not have felt that way, but I did. 

Gautam told me the movie options which were, comedy, horror, or action movie. and I said, "No other option? I don't want to see anyone. " 

Like seriously??? There are so many good romantic movies but they would select action or horror. 

" Please... yaar Maurvi, I swear, next time I would ask you in advance about your preference. Let's watch one of them. " 

" Ok, let's see comedy... " 

We all started watching the movie while eating awesome food. We all enjoyed watching the comedy movie but the movie was of very little duration. So the guys decided to watch the suspense horror movie. 

What ??? No..... 

" Hey, I can't watch that. I have had enough." I said and Sandhya also agreed with me. 

" Don't be scared, we are here. " Gautam said with a smirk. 

" We are not scared ok... I am very tired and want to sleep." I said. 

" Please, let's watch this one... " 

" No, I don't like horror movies. I really can't handle them. " Sandhya said. 

" Let it be... It's ok, after all, you are girls and girls can't handle horror movies. All they like is mushy romantic movies. Can't even think about it. " Gautam teased us. 

" Excuse me !!! What did you just say, Mr Doctor? Girls can handle horror movies. " I said glaring at him though I was really scared. 

" Ok, I dare both of you to watch this movie with us. " 

Was he trying to be funny? Was he serious? Did I seriously have a crush on him??? 

" Fine... " I said and then looked at Sandhya, she nodded hesitantly. 

I hate you Gautam... 

We started the movie and settled down on the couch in his home theatre. 

Gautam switched off the lights and started his home theatre with surrounding sounds. Sandhya was sitting beside me with both of them on the sides... I was getting a bit tense as I was scared of horror movies. I started biting my lips. I closed my eyes for a minute and took a deep breath. 

Gautam whispered, 

" Hey Marvin, it is ok, I think you are scared. Let it be and forget about the dare. I know girls get scared while watching horror movies. " I looked at him. He was smirking at me and I glared at him. 

" And for god sake stop biting your lips. You are distracting me." He whispered again. 

This man is too much. Who gets distracted if someone else is biting her lips?? I am not biting his... 

" What?? Why??? How is me biting my own lips, distracting you??? " 

" Because... I wan... Forget it just please stop it. " 

" No just explain it to me first please... " 

" Ok, sweetheart you are my girlfriend and you can't be biting your lips... Please be my guest. " He whispered and winked at me with a smirk. 

Did he just say that??? Did he just?? Oh God!!! He is... Ughh. 

I picked up a cushion and threw it on him... I wanted to wipe that smirk off his face. 

" Hey, Maurvi, stop it and watch the movie. Oh, I understand now you want to have an argument with me so that you can't concentrate on the movie. Now that is not fair..." 

Just then I felt Sandhya flinched and jerked away with a shriek. Then she realized that Vikram touched her on her shoulder. She glared at him. He was grinning like an idiot. 

" Aww, you got scared, darling... Here hold my hand... I will keep you safe. " Vikram said to Sandhya. 

These guys were too bad. Having fun at our expense. It's ok, this movie will end soon. 

" Maurvi you can stop watching if you want... " Vikram said to me with amusement in his eyes. 

" No, I will prove it to this friend of yours that girls can handle anything." But I knew that I could not handle it. 

I would not be able to sleep tonight. The worst thing was that I was alone in the entire house. 

" See, I can't handle it anymore..." Sandhya was saying but I stopped her. 

" Oh no Sandhya, Please don't... Otherwise, Mr. Doctor would say that he won. I will keep watching. Even if I am not very comfortable. " Said to Sandhya and she nodded. 

It was really a very scary one. There was a scene when the evil spirit was standing right behind the female actor. I hid my face behind my hands. 

I would surely need the help of Vikram after watching this movie as I will definitely have a heart attack. 

Mr. Doctor was having no mercy on me. He came near to me and whispered, " Now that is not fair, beautiful. You said you will watch the movie. So remove your hands from your eyes. " 

I am the biggest stupid of this world, for having a crush on this merciless man. He is a SATAN. 

I glared at him and was taking a deep breath. He was trying to control his laughter. 

" Don't worry, you can also hug me, my beautiful girlfriend. I won't mind at all. That ghost can't hurt you, I am here. " 

I swear I have never had this acute desire to kill anyone to date. 

 I swear, I could kill him with my bare hands. I was so scared and he was grinning like a fool. 

Oh, someone stop this movie or I am going to have nightmares. I am going to die of a heart attack and then I will become a ghost myself. I will haunt him forever, I would take revenge.

(cont'd) ((AUTHOR's NOTE: Don't take Tayaw's opinions on women seriously.)
"Wow… That sure killed the room, huh…" Tayaw says to Aiden after looking around.
"Huh.. Sure did. HAHA!" Aiden tries to cheer himself up.
"Well. What do I know? Don't listen to me. I'm an idiot, AND a kid, who isn't even 20 yet. I know nothing." Tayaw shrugs while eyeing the same ladies who are giving him hostile gazes. He almost chuckles as he saw them get angered more.
"If that's how you think. Then you'd really have a hard time in the future once you finally decide to start a family." Aiden says.
"Maybe. And maybe, something will change my mind. But for now, I'm still young. I'd rather stay single than get together with the wrong person. I have a lot of fun things to do to be distracted by heartbreak." Tayaw says.
*applause* the men in the audience sympathize with Tayaw.  
"Then… how about just dating for the sake of being a musician and a director? Experiencing romance will give you inspiration in making romance films and romantic songs." Aiden says.
"Nah. Other people's experiences are enough for me for inspiration. Have you heard some of my songs, man? They're romantic. Even if you didn't, people who love country love them." Tayaw shrugs.
"Okay. How about making a romantic film?" Aiden asks.
"uh.. September Ninth?" Tayaw says.
"Nope… I remember clearly you saying that 'September Ninth' was not a romantic film." Aiden says, barely suppressing his smugness at trapping Tayaw in his own words.
"Well, whatever… I'm not planning on making a romantic film soon anyway. I'm just saying. I'm romantic enough by myself." Tayaw throws back a ridiculous reply.
*laughter* The audience find the double entendre amusing.
"I mean. I think that other men too are romantic enough by themselves." Tayaw adds *groan* *laughter* getting more reaction from the crowd, the ladies disgusted, the men are amused.
"Are you sure we're still talking about romance?" Aiden says, riding on Tayaw's joke.
"Psh. Yeah I'm talking about romance! Tell me, Aiden. Who do you think is more romantic? Men or women?" Tayaw asks.
Aiden's face freezes, familiar with the feeling of the path things will take once Tayaw starts asking questions back.
"Well. I think women." Aiden says, in caution.
"OBJECTION!" Tayaw slams the couch's arm, startling Aiden.
Then *groan* *ooohhh* the audience are caught off-guard by Tayaw's reaction.
"Jesus Christ. What was that?" Aiden says, catching his breath.
"I'm sorry. I just get so passionate sometimes." Tayaw says, playfully.
*laughter in the audience*
"Okay. How was I wrong then?" Aiden says.
"I'm not saying you're wrong. I just disagree, based on what I've seen. First of all, why do you think you're right?" Tayaw asks back.
Aiden rubs his eyebrows, preparing for another round of chaos.
"I don't know really. They're more caring? They consume romantic books and movies more." Aiden says, as rational as he can.
"Caring. True. Romance fiction consumption? True too. But I still disagree. I associate romance with love. And dare I say AS WELL, men love women more than women love men." Tayaw says.
*OOOHHH* *APPLAUSE* the crowd becomes divided at that.
"PUhah! W-what are you talking about?" Aiden's voice raises in laughter at Tayaw's ridiculous claim.  
"Let's talk about love songs. How do you know if a love song is written by a male or a female songwriter?" Tayaw asks.
"Hmm. I don't know?" Aiden says.
"Another question, and please answer honestly, do you prefer songs by male singers or female singers?" Tayaw asks again.
"I guess male singers' songs. I especially like 'I Only Want You' by Summer Alaska." Aiden says.  
"Hmm. Good song, right?" Tayaw says, approving of Aiden's taste in music.
"What does this have to do with your first question?" Aiden asks.
" 'hmm~ I'll be the mountain you can stand on, be the hand you can hold, when you get old…'" Tayaw sings a line of the song. 
"That is written by a man. A romantic man." Tayaw says.
"Man, of course. Summer Alaska is a rock band of guys." Aiden says.
"yeah. But the subject, the idea. Male songwriters write more about sacrifice for a woman. They sing stuff like 'I'll climb a mountain for you' 'I'll leave my job for you' 'I'll catch a bullet for you'. Right?" Tayaw says.
"Yeah… Yeah, that makes sense." Aiden nods.
"How about female songwriters? 'Put your arms around me' 'Take my breath away' 'Take a chance on me'… Familiar, man?" Tayaw says.
"Uhuh… I see it…" Aiden immediately realizes what Tayaw is saying.
"Yes! While men write songs on how to GIVE GIVE GIVE their love for a girl, women write songs that WANT WANT WANT. IT'S UNFAIR! I have to give you something before you give something back? THAT's not love! That's being a child!" Tayaw says with fake anger.
*laughter*
"Girl, why do I have to climb mountains to make me love you? Why not chase me, too? I'm tired! Why do I have to catch a bullet for you? I'll be dead! You selfish asshole!" Tayaw continues riffing.
*laughter* *applause*
"Oh! OH! Another thing! How about sad love songs? Men write songs on how it's their fault, that they should have worked harder to love, that they're sorry, over and over and over again. How about women's love songs? They just talk about how they feel!
"Ooh. 'I feel hurt'. Ooh. 'I wish you heart break'. They rarely apologize man! ARE YOU A QUEEN? ARE YOU A SAINT? ARE YOU JESUS? What about ME? What about MY FEELINGS?!" Tayaw continues his comparisons in exaggerated passion.
*LAUGHTER* *WHOOO* *APPLAUSE* At this point, Aiden and the audience are almost unanimously clamoring in laughter, not because the comparisons are outrageously funny, but because Tayaw's passionate delivery.  
"Alright. Calm down, Isaac. I hear you." Aiden says, knowing that Tayaw is joking, but his words are effective in calming down the room again.
"It's unfair, you know?" Tayaw says, wiping his fake tears under his huge sunglasses amusing the crowd more.
Aiden seeing this, can only give up leading the show and instead act as an assistant for Tayaw's jokes and an arbiter.  
"I know. I know buddy. But those are just songs." Aiden says in fake consolation.
"BUT NOT JUST SONGS! IT's everywhere in the movies! Why do I have to chase a girl in an airport? Why do I have to make a spectacle just to propose? No, dude. If a girl sees how I love her, then she shouldn't make me go through all that stuff that might break my wallet or send me to jail." Tayaw starts once again.
*OOHH* *LAUGHTER* the men audience are riled up once again.
"That's just in the movies, buddy. It's not like that in real life." Aiden says in fake assurance. *laughter*.
"I know. But in real life, I think men love women more than the other way around though." Tayaw says. *ooohhh* "What makes you say that? My wife and I love each other equally." Aiden says. *oohhh*
"Good for you… But… I mean…" Tayaw takes a deep breath.
"Look. Say, in a relationship, a SERIOUS one, what happens after a break-up? If I may ask, what happened when one of your past relationships ended?" Tayaw asks.
Aiden hesitates in answering but because he does not want to block Tayaw's flow, he obliges.
"20 or so years ago. I was in a relationship with a girl I met in college. We dated for three years but after graduation, it didn't work out." Aiden starts.
"A month after we broke up. I saw her with a new guy walking along ***** Boulevard and they were holding hands." Aiden says.
"I bet you were still dealing with the break-up?" Tayaw asks.
"Yes and it was miserable. BUT that's just me, and her. My thing doesn't apply to everybody." Aiden says.
"Yeah. Your story doesn't prove my point, of course. But, you're not the only man I know who had the same experience. According to what I've seen, and from the men I've made friends with, a man will take months, even years to recover. A lady will take what? Half? A fraction of the time a man does to move on. I therefore conclude that men love women more than the other way around." Tayaw says.
*WHOO* *BOOO* The crowd is now divided, *LAUGHTER* but find Tayaw's rambling amusing too as there is some truth to it.  
"Here's another thing I noticed. No, I really tried my best looking this up… In a young marriage, like a couple in their 30s or 40s… when a spouse dies, what happens?" Tayaw asks Aiden.
"… I don't even wanna know." Aiden says, dodging the question this time as the subject seems heavier.
"If the wife dies, the man would mourn, which is a given. After that, what happens?Half the time, they re-marry, half the time, they would never re-marry ever again. The stuff that belonged to their wife would bring back memories and the man would have a hard time throwing her stuff away. Right?" Tayaw asks.
"That kinda covers it, yes." Aiden says.
"What happens if the husband dies?" Tayaw asks again.
"The same, I guess?" Aiden says.
"Yes. But there's a small and important difference…" Tayaw says, pausing for three seconds to build up suspense which is effective as *murmur* the audience is brewing in anticipation.
"… there'd be … PUHAHA!" Before Tayaw can even conclude his comparisons, he bursts out laughter.
*Laughter* Aiden and the audience laugh with Tayaw too, but mixed with it, some nervousness.
"There'd be… Puhhhh.." Tayaw bursts out again.
"Man… I can't finish the joke. I'm sorry. *giggle* It's kinda messed up." Tayaw says.
*Laughter* The audience this time laugh in relief.
"Come on. You already set it up that long, what were you gonna say?" Aiden is curious.
"I was gonna say. If a young husband dies in a marriage, his widow will start a garage sale right after his funeral." Tayaw delivers finally. *OOOHHH* *GROAAANN* *giggles* The audience members are shocked but somehow cannot stop themselves from seeing the humor in the dark joke.
"Yeah. The guitar, his video game console, his signed baseball, his signed jersey. I wouldn't be surprised if she sold them for $20 each." Tayaw stretches his joke.
*LAUGHTER in the audience*
"PUHAHAhhaa. OHHH my GOD! Man, you're crazy!" Aiden loses it.
"I kinda am~! I told you I didn't want to say it. Now the pedestrians of Los Angeles are all shocked." Tayaw says.
"EUGHH..Jesus Christ. Let's cut this short to commercial break before you say something worse." Aiden shakes his head.
"That would be best." Tayw nods, feeling great at playing the room's emotions. The producers also sigh in relief, very unsure if they can even air the episode.  
~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~
"We're back with more of Isaac."
*APPLAUSE* The taping continues after a short break.
"We have a ten or so minutes left. Is there anything you want to talk about? I mean, when you're the guest, we really don't prepare, so we just have to go all the way in winging it." Aiden says.
"Hnn. I don't really know what else to talk about." Tayaw says, wanting Aiden to lead the interview this time.
"Well, is there anything else you're up to?" Aiden asks.
"Nothing really. I've spent a few months making a film and I think I need a break. Also, it's been a while since I released my first album, '18' and my country album 'On the Road' so I think it's time for me to write new songs again. I have to release an album called '19' while I'm still, you know, 19." Tayaw casually promotes his album and his future one.
"While I'd really LOVE to see more of your stuff, there's no rush for you. You're young with plenty of energy, but you also shouldn't work yourself so hard." Aiden says.
"Yeah. Maybe I should travel too. Is there a place you can recommend?" Tayaw asks.
"Ever been to Europe? Italy's a nice place." Aiden recommends having grown up with Italian-Americans.
"Ahh.. Ho passato un sacco di tempo in Italia gia." Tayaw says. (any Italian readers? SOrry. It's google translate.)
"…" This silences the studio.
"I don't know what you said, but I'm guessing you're skipping Italy?" Aiden says. "Yeah. Either way, I might decide to travel." Tayaw nods.  
"Mmm. By the way, you were so happy talking about singing in Grand Country Opera, but how come didn't play for us tonight?" Aiden asks.
*groan* The audience express their disappointment as they realize what they have missed out on.
"Well, I thought if I wanna play again for the show, I really wanna collaborate again with Da Bellum Burning folks, but because I only had yesterday as a heads up, I had no time to work something out with them." Tayaw tips his hat to the members of the house band.  
"Dude. We have a guitar and a drummer. You have all you need." Shaheed says with his mic, which he only uses for singing.
*applause* The audience love the idea followed by "SING! SING! SING!" an urging chanting.
"Alright." Tayaw, not wanting to disappoint the audience, stands up and walks towards the band with light steps.
*applause* the audience is pleased to see Tayaw happily oblige to their request.

The two brought some snacks and drinks downstairs, and came to a minor family cinema.
"What do you want to watch?" Fu Hanzheng said, then he turned on the light and pulled down the blinds.
Gu Weiwei went to leaf through the movies on the shelf, wondering what Fu Shiyi's movies were like, so she picked one that was recently in the cinema.
"Let's watch this, Third Master's latest movie."
Fu Hanzheng took the movie and put it into the player. He turned off the light inside the room and sat down on the sofa.
Then he placed one arm over her back, and crossed his two long legs, he looked laid-back and casual.
It was a romantic comedy and was very humourous from the start.
Fu Shiyi might not be a very skilled actor, but he was not that bad either.
Gu Weiwei opened a bag of chips and watched the movie as she was eating, she laughed too when something funny was happening.
However, Fu Hanzheng, who was sitting next to her, was mostly watching her rather than the movie.
Seeing her eating chips constantly, he asked curiously, "Very tasty?"
Gu Weiwei gave him the bag and said, "Tastes okay, want to try it?"
Fu Hanzheng glanced at the chips and then lowered his head to eat the chip in her hands.
"Very tasty."
"…"
She had asked him to eat the one from the bag, not the one from her hand.
Gu Weiwei put down the chips, opened a drink and took a sip.
"I need to go over the revision for class, so Aunt Wang can make your lunch, alright?"
Fu Hanzheng stayed silent for a moment and nodded unhappily.
"Yes."
Although he preferred the lunch she made for him, she needed to go and revise and he did not want her to work over time.
"My agent says that in case some pictures will be taken of me, he will find me a safe place to live, so…"
"It is safe here." Fu Hanzheng interrupted her unfinished words.
All in all, she was still planning to move out.
"What if pictures are taken of me when I'm here?" Gu Weiwei asked.
Of course this was the safest place but with him living here, she was not very safe any more.
"Then we can announce our relationship." Fu Hanzheng said calmly.
"…" Gu Weiwei sighed helplessly.
Fu Hanzheng glanced at the bitter faced girl.
"Is our relationship that embarrassing?"
"I don't want people to say that I am successful because I have someone behind my back, I am capable by myself!" Gu Weiwei said with determination.
Fu Hanzheng thought for a moment and said, "You are capable enough to have someone like me behind your back."
"I…" Gu Weiwei just could not counter his words, so she continued to watch the movie… But on the screen, at this exact moment, Fu Shiyi was kissing a girl passionately.
She took a sip of her drink feeling embarrassed and picked up a snack.
Fu Shiyi and the girl were done kissing and then they went into bed and started being more passionate with one another.
With the wonderful sound system in the cinema, the girl and the guy's kissing and panting was heard everywhere.
It was so embarrassing.
Although the scene only lasted for a minute, she felt that she was no longer able to look Fu Shiyi directly in the eyes anymore.
"Do you need to do a kissing scene in the movie?" Fu Hanzheng asked coldly.
Gu Weiwei shook her head determinedly. "No."
Although actresses should know how to make sacrifices, she definitely could not kiss Fu Shiyi!
"Good." Fu Hanzheng said coldly.
Or, he would beat Fu Shiyi to death.


Gu Weiwei, the adopted daughter of the most wealthy and powerful Gu Family in A Land, is seriously injured during an attack. Her best friend, Ling Yan, who has been suffering from a heart disease, takes this opportunity to kill Gu Weiwei and snatches her heart for her own transplant surgery.
 Unexpectedly, however, Gu Weiwei is reborn and became Mu Weiwei, the adopted daughter of the most wealthy and powerful Fu Family in Hua Land and somehow ends up having a one-night-stand with the heir Fu Hanzheng. 
From that night on, strange things start to happen. Firstly, Fu Hanzheng, who has no interest in any women, especially not in the noisy young Mu Weiwei, suddenly falls for Mu Weiwei—who now has Gu Weiwei’s soul inside. 
Gu Weiwei decides to take this second chance of life as a precious opportunity to take revenge for both Mu Weiwei and for herself. 
Subsequently, Gu Weiwei uses her own talents and skills and becomes the most popular and beloved movie star in the entire world using Mu Weiwei’s body and successfully crushes all her enemies. 
Meanwhile, she gradually develops a lovely relationship with Fu Hanzheng, who is deeply devoted to her and only her.
