Hi jeffery, Sorry for that late uploading reply. I also finished to read this script yesterday and this was really fun story and how lovely couple who are lily (Chen Li) and Zhang liang. Also how cute who are lily's friend chen jing such as jealous thing. our script "A guy's advice on women" is also really interesting story in that it makes me think between Zhang liang and Zhen Hua are good friendship. Even though Zhang liang didn't contact for his friend Zhen hua because of Zhang liang's girl friend, Zhen hua just understood him and talk likely they just met long time ago. This also makes me miss my friend. Jeffery you also have the same thinking do you? And Zhen hua advice well for Zhang liang. Jeffery I'm not sure that Zhang liang and lily broke up or not? i am not quiet sure for that... it's lack of my chinese skill. Anyway waiting for your reply. :-)

Glad to see ur replay so early :) Yeah...our one shows what a friendship between Zhen hwa and Zhang Liang! We should try to express their friendship in the play with some appropriate actions, facial expressions, etc.. the tone of voice is important as well..For your question, Zhang Liang and Lily didn't break up in this scripts..you know there's more stories in sem 2..lol maybe something will be happend in there.

I'll put the whole story up just a bit later on today.. see ya :)

Thanks for ur reply and I really sorry for that late reply. I really glad you to teach me like that thanks. When we do composition after 2 weeks, I also think just same as you. Important things are tones and how Zhen hwa and Zhang Liang's expression. When we do composition after 2 weeks, will i be Zhen hwa and you will be Zhang liang? I think we can do that really well when we are doing composition because you know, we totally understand their friendship and we have experienced just like them. And it's really glad to know that Zhang liang and lily did not break up! because i really hope this couple shouldn't be broken up. Anyway i will wait for your script and i'm also going to read whole script again for fully understanding. Ah! I also want to ask you how do you think about lily's friend? And Zhang liang's collegue? I mean their personality things! because when i read whole script again, i found really interesting about their friends! Please tell me about them, i hope that we talk about that as soon as possible!

If you've done your own translation for whole stories, juss put that up here. I'll tell you my one from know. If you have any different views or you found anything that I've done wrong, plz let me know.

The first dialogue, 'A fated meeting' is all about the first meeting of Zhang Liang and Chen Li(Lily). They meet at a coffee shop and order two hot mochas (热摩卡). They talk about their works and online activities. The mood is pretty good.

The second one, 'Growing Affections'is the scene that Zhang Liang and Chen Li walk to Chen Li's house together very late at night. It shows that the relationship between Zhang Liang and Chen Li is becoming closer. I don't know how they become so close just after the first meeting but;; anyway...the script is just like that.

In 'The Jealous Friend' script, Chen Jing, a friend of Chen Li appears in the story. Chen Jing, Zhang Liang, and Chen Li meet at the restaurant to have dinner. However, Zhang Liang and Chen Li come late to restaurant because of Zhang Liang's overtime work. Chen Jing feel jealous to them because Chen Li seems to value her lover over the friendship with her old friend (重色轻友). (Chen Jing and Chen Li are friends since kindergarten[幼儿园]) She says that she doesn't want to be a third wheel(电灯泡), and she orders a lobster (龙虾) for her dish...lol It's so funny because Chen Jing is just so childish...isn't she?

I'll put the rest up juss a bit later...I have a assaignment to do...I'll be back soon! :)

Hi Jeffery, thanks for your reply. now I'm going to talk about rest of dialogue that i understood. Ah and i think you are all right i mean your script seems really good. lol

The fourth script "Lover's spat" is about go to shopping and show lily look at her clothes and Zhang liang is with her but when lily look at her clothes, Zhang liang shows looking a women's clothes is not funny and every women just look the clothes and they don't buy. This makes lily really angry. I'm totally understand lily because i had the same experienced like them lol. I think Zhang Liang sholud more impaitent for her girl friend.

The fifth script "love letter" is they just met and talk about very lovely things about them their self. Zhang liang said " i love you and you're my vitamin and etc..." for her girl friend. When he said this, lily said she heard about that in love letter that was from zhang liang and Zhang liang still said to her very lovely things for her. I actually don't like lily in this script, because i can totally understand Zhang liang such as he doesn't have many experience to meet girls and he really love his girl friend but she said "stop it that's only you want to say to me?" like that.. I think lily should understand Zhang liang if she love him.

The sixth script "An old flame" is about lily and his ex- boy friend Liu xiang who was millionare and own his company and his company was on the U.S. stock met coincidence and Zhang liang saw that and Zhang liang could feel that lily and Liu Xiang were not just friend. Before Zhang liang felt this, she said Lix Xiang was just friend. But i also could feel Lix xiang was lily's ex-boy friend. I don't know why lily lied to Zhang liang i don't like that way she could say truly Liu Xiang is my ex-boy friend. I totally can't understand why. If she love Zhang liang, she sholud respect Zhang liang and she sould be truly person.

Hey jeffery, if you think something wrong in my translation in here, please tell me for me to understand totally. Thanks!

I think your translations are alright just except some misstyped words...;; (Lix xiang->Liu Xiang) Yeah I don't know why Chen Li tells the truth that she has Zhang Liang as her boyfriend but..you know this is just a story...you are so engaged in it!!! hahaha

Anyway, I'll put the rest up now...just 3 dialogues to go! the 7th one, which is our one "A guy's advice on women" is about some kind of consultation between Zhen Hwa and Zhang Liang about Chen Li's unusual behaviour to Zhang Liang after she have met Liu Xiang..such as she keeps saying busy on these days (怪不得最近丽丽老说忙) and she doesn't do the online chatting with Zhang Liang in the evening (晚上也不上网和张亮聊天了) poor Zhang Liang!! I think the men have to be rich if they don't wanna lose their girlfriends...;;

the 8th one, Scheming Girls is a dialogue between Chen Jing and Li Fei...this is what a best dialogue I ever seen in this story...hahaha as I told you that Li Fei is a colleague of Zheng Liang in the company, and she has some feelings to him. She says Zheng Liang is such a good person with good lookings (帅) and talents (有才华). Then Chen Jing, the jealous friend of Lily, incites her to dash to Zhang Liang, she says to Li Fei that Zhang Liang and Lily might not work it out till the end (丽丽和张亮还不一定有结果)!! omg..can we say like this for an old friend? Is it the 'real' friendship between Chen Jing and Lily? I don't think so-

For the last, in the script "the come-on", Li Fei finally dashes to Zhang Liang..!!! They work overtime together and Li Fei asks Zhang Liang to have dinner together(我们一起去吃吧)..and she keeps saying some good words for Zhang Liang, such as he is not only funny and considerate, but also responsible(我看你不但幽默、体贴，还很有责任心)...wow...

Then...guess what? she finally dashes to Zhang Liang. she says the most people on these days became to value just material things and money rather than the feelings about each other. (我觉得现在的人太注重金钱和物质了，其实彼此之间的感情才是最重要的) Zhang Liang agrees with that and says the number of people who think like that are getting fewer and fewer(只不过能这样想的人越来越少了). Then she finally says that she is the one of the people who values the real love!

This is it for my translations..if you have any questions or addings to them, just let me know. It seems we've totally understood the whole story...we made it mate.haha Now...it's time to practice for our play haha See you in the class!!! :)
