[bunniefuu]

A NETFLIX SERIES

Ru-rong.

I love you.

But…

"I love you" has two meanings.

One of them is

"I need you"

while the other is
"I'll do anything for you."

Which one are you?

You writers are always paranoid.

I suggest you stop writing novels.

I don't like to be questioned
all the time.

I've got to go.

YOU’RE THE PERPETUAL PAIN IN MY CHEST

My gosh!

It's going too far even in a novel.

THE HEART OF LUO XIANG-YU

Kate?

Even at a time like this,

you're still as pretty as a princess.

Are you all right, Kate?

Kate?

Wake up, Kate.

I'll help you.

Kate!

Why didn't you listen?

Why didn't you listen to me?

Why didn't you listen?

If we can't solve the problem,

how can we meet your family?

Why didn't you listen?

Freeze!

Freeze!

Freeze!

Don't sh**t.

I'll do it myself.

I'll go check. Stay here.

Surprised?

I've learned everything.

Triathlon, martial arts, Thai boxing,

and free solo climbing.

Do you like it?

I know them all.

It's great.

Quiet.

I like quiet girls

without a sound.

Do you know?

When I lost my memory,

I saw a girl

and I felt my yearning

and hatred at the same time.

The girls that I met,

I k*lled them all.

Until I remembered my ex-girlfriend.

That b*tch.

That b*tch…

She's the origin of my pain.

I've finally come this far.

Once I k*ll her,

we'll live happily ever after.

But you didn't listen.

Why didn't you listen?

Why?

Why didn't you listen to me?

In the heavy rain,

under an umbrella,

Ru-rong stands before
Senior's grave, weeping.

A police officer approaches her,

stops behind her,

and comforts her softly.

Don't be afraid.

Ru-rong looks up.

I'll take care of you

as long as you listen to me.

What she sees is Senior's face.

A twisted

and distorted face.

But she can't scream.

IN THE RAIN, HER VISION BLURS

THE END

RU-RONG: I'VE FINALLY FINISHED THE NOVEL!

KATE: CONGRATULATIONS. THE WEDDING
PREPARATIONS ARE ABOUT TO k*ll ME.

Don't worry.

I saved you just now.

You won't die.

Hello?

Just a moment.

-I want a hot--
-A hot medium black tea latte.

I know.

A hot medium black tea latte.

You've finished it?

Right.

Do you really get more inspirations here?

You'll never know how many inspirations

I've got here.

I'll write down what I hear.

Maybe I'll get to use it in my novels.

It's 42 dollars.

Do you want your future boyfriend

-to be the fat one or the bald one?
-It really is you.

Or the one who looks like Wu Kang-ren?

Hi.

Hi, Ru-rong. Did you see a ghost?

A god,

not a ghost.

You're my god.

What has been said is so disgusting.

I love scrambled rice.

You’re writing about me?

I can’t wait to see it.

What are you going to write about me?

Listen. If he weren't crazy for me in bed,

I broke up with him
while he was hospitalized.

He didn't even have a chance
to talk to me.

I can't steal my best friend's man.

You should learn from them both.

Don't think about another man
when you're with me.

No!

No.

My Mr. Right is turning into a werewolf?

Ru-rong?

I was taking a shower.
Give me three minutes.

In three minutes, you'll…

My storeroom is a mess.

I locked it up.

Don't open it.

He was so perfect that

I suspected he had some secret identity.

Like a k*ller

or a secret agent.

THE END

IN LOVE WITH A CHAMELEON

Be careful. It's hot.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

What is it, Mom?

Hey, Chen Ru-rong.

It's noisy there.

You're at the market?

I'm at the airport.

What? Airwalk?

I happen to need a new pair of sneakers.

Why don't you buy me one?

I said I'm at the airport.

-I'm about to board the plane.
-Passengers of Ever Happiness flight

-AB123
-Mom?

-to Hong Kong,
-Mom. I didn't sleep all night.

-I'm very pressured. Don't joke around.
-please board at Gate A12.

I'm not joking.

I've thought things through.
I'm going to Robert in Australia.

What?

Listen to me. Just stay there.

I'll be right over.

It's very easy to rebook your ticket.

-Chen Ru-rong.
-Do you hear me?

-You can't dillydally in love.
-But…

I've decided to go to Robert
before he changes his mind.

Don't worry.

-I'll be fine on my own.
-You're a time b*mb.

You can't even use emojis.

How did you book a ticket?

I have to go.

I'm boarding the plane.

Tell Min on my behalf.

Bye.

Your call will be…

If…

If there's a time b*mb in an airplane,

how do I tell the police?

Hi, everyone.

Do you like the photo that I chose?

If you like it,
give me a round of applause.

I envy you.

You were brave.

You even dated a young man.

I'll never forget

how my mom left with me,

all those sounds.

My mom

just held my hand

and ran away

with our luggage.

I still remember it.

Mom, if you can hear me…

Thank you.

Thank you so much.

Not long ago,

I finally made up with her.

But…

I never thought

that she would leave me so soon.

-This photo!
-Amazing, right?

-You still have the photo.
-Yes.

-Let's take one more.
-Okay.

To celebrate the reunion of Sloppy Girls.

-Like this?
-Put your hands on your laps.

-On the laps.
-What about me?

-Raise your arms. Yes. Beautiful.
-Like this?

-Am I doing it right?
-Like this?

-Touch the leaf. Yes.
-Okay. One, two,

-three.
-Beautiful.

How I wish I had come to her earlier.

Jin…

I miss you.

Jin,

I hope you like

how everything goes today.

I really want you to see the DVD.

What we would do together,

I hope I’ll have the courage
to do it alone.

I'll do my best.

Jin,

you always ask me to drive

as far away as possible.

Is this where you want to be?

I've never set a goal.

Wherever I go, there's a surprise.

Let's go ahead to see

what's going to happen.

Let's go!

Let's go!

LIVE WELL AND DIE WELL
FIND YOUR NEXT ADVENTURE

GOOD LUCK, JIN XIANG-YU


YOU MUST TAKE HER IN EUROPE

If I were to be k*lled in Australia,

I would hold you responsible, Fatty Jin.

Kala.

Kala?

Kala.

Wang Mei-mei,

get out of here now.

There are so many people in the world.

Why did you pick an old and poor liar

living in a camper van?

Maybe there are many slaughterhouses
where Robert lives

and the land is vast

for him to bury a corpse.

Kala.

What?

Kala.

Koala.

Kala.

Abbie!

FRIED CHICKEN!

FRIED CHICKEN

WHY DID YOU GO WITHOUT ME?
AREN'T WE SUPPOSED TO GO TOGETHER?

SO YOU STILL REMEMBER ME?

I WORKED THE DAY SHIFT.
HOW'S THE OLD MAN?

MEI-MEI: HE HELD
A BIG WELCOME PARTY FOR ME.

USE YOUR CAMERA! I WANT TO SEE IT!

CANCEL

BAD RECEPTIONS HERE.
LET'S TAKE A RAIN CHECK.

AND I'M TIRED. IT'S A JET LAG.

THE TIME DIFFERENCE
IS ONLY TWO HOURS. WHAT JET LAG?

YOU SHOW UP JUST IN TIME FOR A FIGHT.

Chen Ru-rong…

AND YOU DIDN'T ANSWER
MY MESSAGES.

WHY DID YOU TEXT ME
"FRIED CHICKEN"?

IS THE OLD MAN FROM A SCAM g*ng TOO?

MEI-MEI: I DON'T MIND YOUR SHARP TONGUE.
YOU'RE JUST JEALOUS OF ME.

MIN: THEN USE YOUR CAM.

CHEN RU-RONG: YES! WHY NOT?

NO! I'M BUSY.

MIN: WITH WHAT?

HE WANTS TO TAKE A BATH WITH ME.

I'M NAKED.

Not okay.

That's your mom.

No, that's your mom.

I don't want to see her naked.

She must've read your novels.

"Don't take off my socks, old man."

What are you talking about?

That wh*re.

What the…

I don't want a picnic.
I want to get married.

I'm suffocating.

I can't even fight with him.

b*tch.

She's a b*tch!

Yes.

MIN: MOM, HAS THE OLD MAN
SHOWN YOU AROUND?

I WANT PHOTOS.

CHEN RU-RONG: SOMETHING IS WRONG
IF YOU DON'T SHOW US PHOTOS.

MIN: IT HAS BEEN THREE DAYS, MOM.
WHY HAVE YOU LEFT ME ON READ?

CHEN RU-RONG: IF YOU DON'T REPLY,
I'LL GO TO YOU NOW!

How's that?

Let's put them on.

You're so cute. See?

They're pink. With tassels too.

Glad to have you with me.

I haven't gotten used to the place.

Although Robert is a nice man,

I miss my home.

And Abbie is so annoying.

You're the best.

Here you go.

Thanks.

How is it going?

You know where's everybody?

Yes. They're in the living room.

Okay. Thank you.

It's delicious.

Come on!

-Rose!
-Rose!

-Let me check, okay? I'll come back later.
-Rose!

-Rose!
-Rose!

The Aussie girl has no manners.

To tell you the truth,

my Ru-rong isn't crazy at all.

I just sneezed.

Were you speaking ill of me?

You don't have time to think.

They are in English. I can't read.

No!

Otherwise…

Yes. You're just babbling.
I don't understand a word.

If you're that good,

why don't you speak in Chinese?

Do me a favor.

Translate my words into English now.

You've finally shown up.

You didn't answer my calls
or reply to my texts.

What have you been doing?

Don't argue with me.

Help me out now.

TRANSLATION APP

You have a house.

Then why did I have to live
in the camper van?

Are you out of your mind?

What?

What the hell?

Where else?

Let's go! Go!

Now.

Come on.

-Come on.
-See.

Look at my lad.

Look how weak he is.

And you really want him
to end up out there on the streets?

You can't just show up here

and tell us you want the house back, mate.

We're tenants. We have rights.

But you see,
I just checked my account, all right?

And apparently, you haven't paid any rent
for three years now.

Meanwhile, I'm paying
the mortgage every month.

And that's where my paycheck
is going, you see?

I just found that out.

Hold on. You never told us
we needed to pay rents.

And now, you come here
blaming us out of the blue.

Yes. You have no right
to treat us like this, mate.

But you see, this is my house.

And you haven't paid any rent.

Maybe we did pay rents,

but your bank just got it wrong.

This is a free country.

There are laws.

And I need to protect myself.

-Unless you can give us some money.
-Pay us something.

Stop!

Are you an idiot?

Don't you know
they haven't paid rent for three years?

And you've been paying the mortgage
with your paychecks.

Don't you know that?

Are you an idiot or what?

You didn't even know

where we were going.

And you wanted to play all the time.

Listen to me. You're driving me crazy.

I don't know why I've ended up with you.

Your son is weak?

-He doesn't look like he needs any food.
-You…

-Give us some time.
-You have rights?

You need to have money first.

Listen. If you don't pay the rent,

you'll have to get out.

Bye.

-Bye!
-Bye!
