Lili, it's so hard to get together with you!
算了吧你才是大忙人呢每天不是上电视就是上报纸像我们这样的平凡人哪敢主动联系你啊

That's enough. It's you who is the busy one! Every day if you're not on the TV then you're in the newspaper. An ordinary person like me--how could I dare to take the initiative to get in touch with you.
你跟别人可不一样我再忙都要挤出时间来见你对了上次我们在咖啡馆碰见之后我给你发短信你怎么都不回啊我还以为你不想见我呢

It's different with you than with other people. If I were even busier, I still would squeeze in the time to come and see you. Oh, last time after we met in the coffee shop I sent you a text message, how come you never responded?
没有不过前段时间我心情不太好
méiyǒu 没有bùguò 不过qiánduàn shíjiān 前段时间wǒ 我xīnqíng 心情bùtài 不太hǎo 好
No, not at all. But in the last little while my mood hasn't been that great.
