[Fantasy Love] | EP01 The 36 stratagems of love are all clever ones | [The Love Duel 过招]
=The Love Duel= =Episode 1= (She is a lonely poor maid) (who has always been humiliated.) (Her life is short,) (but she remains kind-hearted.) (He is a cruel prince) (who keeps killing.) (The shackles of fate) (bring them across each other’s paths.) (The entanglement between love and desire) (keeps them together.) Cut! (Burning Love) Shen Juanjuan? I really couldn’t come up with another name. When you use my name, you should have at least modeled this kind of persona. But you always model the same persona. I’m so fed up with it. Audiences love dramatic conflicts. Miss Shen, how about you put up with it and read a little bit more? The later chapters are great. Great? Burning Love, a 33-day love epic with a violent prince. You’re quite familiar with Stockholm syndrome. (Burning Love) Do the audiences really love this? This kind of novel, I won’t accept it even if it’s free. But Mr. Chen of Abyss Pictures has gone to the summit to buy it. Who? Mr. Chen of Abyss Pictures. Where are you going, Miss Shen? (It’s Chen Shen again.) (He always snatches my project.) (A red alert for rainstorm from the weather bureau.) (This heavy rainstorm) (is expected to last till the next morning.) (Citizens, please stay vigilant) (and do not go out.) (Burning Love) (Such an elastic airbag.) (Wait.) (Oh, no.) Assassin! Zhao? Kill her. Zhao. What the heck are you doing? (What is going on here?) (This isn’t true.) (It’s just a dream.) (It can’t be true.) Shen Juan, I’m Mr. Novel, the plot administrator. You traveled from modern days into Burning Love as Shen Juanjuan, the maid. Unless you kill the prince as written in the novel, you can’t return to modern times. But as soon as you arrived, you gave yourself away and they executed you. From now on, you no longer exist in either modern times or ancient times. It freaked me out. What a nightmare! Shen Juan, you failed your mission and your life will be erased. I’m sending you to your reincarnation. You can think about what you want to be in your next life, a human or an animal. Who are you? – I am… – Wait. What mission did you just talk about? To kill Prince Heng. You’re the White Ghost? [*The envoy taking the dead to the underworld] Don’t point at me. That’s just superstition. You can call me Mr. Novel or Zhang San. But I didn’t even receive the mission you just mentioned and how could I complete it? That’s impossible. Yesterday, I issued… Oh, sorry. I forgot to issue it. But sadly, you’re here now. Everyone has his fate. Just give in to it. I never give in to fate. Even if I get stuck in a novel, I should be a champion of work or a superstar. But what did you make me? Maid? Babe in the woods? Hopeless romantic? Totally wrong personas. When you assign missions, don’t you ever consider the match thing? Do I have to? Send me back to modern times immediately. Don’t you know producers like me are busy? No way. You haven’t done your mission yet. Then send me back to do the mission. Kill a violent prince, huh? To fight violence with violence is what I do best. Still no way. There’s no precedent here. To be honest, the assassination mission for you can be a rather difficult one. Actually, it’s not bad to be an animal. In my vocabulary, you’ll never find "no way". I, Shen Juan, have to do my best even in time travel. (I must hold out and not give myself away.) (Without a dagger, I won’t be decapitated.) Your… (Why is there another dagger?) (Is this woman a dagger seller?) Assassin! Wait a minute. I’m not an assassin. Then who are you? I… I am… I am Shen Juanjuan, the maid. Liar! Shen Juanjuan is a mute. (I should have finished the novel.) (Oh, no, such a big bug.) Let me dispute… Oh, no. Let me explain. You deliberately pretended to be a mute. You must be an assassin! Get her out of here! – Yes. – Wait. How come a mute like you can talk? I… Something was wrong with my throat, so I couldn’t talk before. But it’s fine. I was taking some decoction these days. And surprisingly, I’m cured. Is there really such magic decoction? Yes. My father was a famous physician in the village. A few days ago, he sent me a new prescription. So, I’m cured. Then this… How are you going to explain this? (How do I know?) Don’t try to deny it. Your Highness, I keep it for self-protection. I never knew it would fall out and scare you, Your Highness. I’m so guilty. For self-protection? Do you find it dangerous to stay by my side? Or are you exactly the danger around me? (According to what I read,) (this prince is supposed to kiss this girl.) (He’s probably interested in her.) (He just likes Shen Juanjuan) (for her innocence and silliness.) If that’s what you think, I’ll have nothing else to say. If you don’t believe me, kill me, then. (If it goes on like this, I’ll be giving myself away.) (I should fake a faint now.) Take her away.
