Lighter & Princess (2022) s01e02 Episode Script

Episode 2

♫Everything is different when we watch the sky from the sea bottom♫
♫The person I used to be is gone♫
♫I no longer believed a person could save another♫
♫Until when you broke into my world♫
♫Even if the world fell apart into darkness♫
♫We would bloom in the darkness♫
♫The knight and the king♫
♫like the white sails in night navigation are protecting the ocean♫
♫I see a clear direction♫
♫In which a touch of golden color flickers at the end of the wheat field♫
♫Even if I am the king♫
♫With supreme glory everything is meaningless without you♫
♫All what I did is to make you remember♫
♫The way everything was when it started♫
♫If I am the king♫
♫Who is proud and arrogant like wild and wind weeds♫
♫I only want you to be at my side whatever it takes♫
♫And everything is the way it used to be at the very beginning♫

[Episode 2]
Where is Li Xun?
Who are you?
Let go.
I'll wait for you there.
Be careful.
She's strong.
When did you get out?
What's your next plan?
It has nothing to do with you.
Where do you live?
Did you come back to get married?
You two are a perfect match.
Do you know what you are saying?
Zhu Yun,
what I have gone through
has nothing to do with you.
And you don't need to feel sorry.
I made it clear three years ago.
Who you're gonna be with
has nothing to do with me.
Do you understand?
Li Xun,
what did I do?
Why are you treating me like this?
I just thought you were heartless before.
Now I finally realize that
you are really a jerk.
You think too much.
Time is precious for everyone.
I'm going.
Li Xun,
you haven't changed at all.
I'm sorry, big man.
Bye.
Li Xun,
is the girl
the one you mentioned
in jail?
She's beautiful but too fierce.
Did she ever practice taekwondo?
Why don't you talk?
Are you afraid Shut up.
Okay.
Women are unreliable.
Zhu Yun,
where do you want to go in a hurry?
Aren't we going back to the hotel?
But I have to tell you that it's about 10 km away.
How about this?
It's hard to walk with your heels on.
Let's call a taxi to go back to the hotel.
If you really want to take a walk,
change your shoes and I'll go with you.
Okay.
That female star is generous.
Dollar.
A surprise.
I'm sorry, big man.
You should change your bad habit,
or you'll be looked down upon.
Return the purse.
Okay.
What's this?
How strange. She even puts her keys in her purse.
Zhu Yun,
I saw how you reacted when you saw him yesterday.
I can't pretend that
I don't know anything.
He's still in your heart.
No.
I don't want to compare with him.
You two are too different.
You are better than him.
In fact,
he was a jerk for most of the time.
It has been three years.
When I went abroad,
I couldn't even hear his name.
I felt sad at the thought of him.
So I studied as hard as I could,
trying to do all kinds of things so that I couldn't stop.
I thought when I used up my energy,
I wouldn't feel sad.
But gradually,
I found that I was no longer constantly crying
or was unable to fall asleep the whole night.
In fact, I didn't do
anything special.
I was just living an ordinary life.
Do you still hate him?
This house is newly decorated.
It has good lighting, right?
Okay. We'll rent this house.
Really?
Let's sign a contract.
Let's make it a three-month lease.
What do you do?
It has nothing to do with you.
I need to know
who rent my house.
Our job is related to computer.
We're programmers.
Programmer?
You don't look like a programmer.
What do you think we do?
I just can't rent my house
to someone with unclear identity.
Let's go.
We have a clear identity.
What
How strange they are.
What do you want to do?
Aren't you curious what we do?
He's a murderer,
and I split the body for him.
We were just released from prison.
What else do you want to know?
Do you know what kind of person you introduced to me?
They're strange persons.
I'm telling you,
do not introduce such persons to me again.
It's the 7th one.
Like I said,
they are the same.
When I was just released from prison,
I also wanted to live a normal life.
But, as you saw,
we're abandoned by the society
as we were put in jail.
No one sees us as a normal person.
How about this?
You go abroad with me.
The weather is good abroad,
and no one knows us.
And we won't be treated unfairly there.
You're not over your ex-girlfriend, are you?
Hou Ning,
you can leave.
But as long as you work with me,
I can let you be a dignified person.
Make a choice.
Don't change the subject.
Stop.
All kinds of people are living in the neighborhood.
Mind your own business and don't make trouble.
Pay the rent on the 20th day every month.
You have the card number.
Remember to pay the rent on time.
Here is the key.
I'm going.
Call me if you need help.
Come on.
Do we rent such a small house
with so much money?
You can rent one by yourself if you don't want to live here.
Clean it up.
I'm going out.
Do I clean it up alone?
You're the boss.
Miss Ren, which one would you like to wear?
This one.
You go over first.
Okay.
Who sent it here?
Who else can it be?
Where's he?
He sent it to me by express.
What? Did you lose anything?
An old object.
It should have been lost a long time ago.
Are you leaving?
We've handled everything.
We're going back to Linyang tomorrow.
With Tian Xiuzhu?
It's good.
Just take it as a less satisfactory ending
of the story.
I'm going to work.
Go.
Bye-bye.
Does it look good?
Okay, okay, okay. I'll comb it for you.
Have a look
and give me some advice.
How do you think of it, Li Xun?
I think this part is fine.
This part can be improved.
I think it's fine.

[Seven Years Ago]
Why does it take so long to distribute the textbooks?
It's too slow. Yeah. Yeah.
Are they really going to distribute the textbooks? We'll suffer sunstroke.
Guys, please be patient.
The seniors are counting inside.
It'll be our turn soon.
Please be patient, okay?
Fang Shumiao, you're the acting monitor.
Go to urge them.
Yeah.
We're new students.
We'd better not leave a bad impression
on the seniors.
Please be patient.
It'll be our turn soon.
Thank you. Thank you.
Even so, you should also care about us.
We've been exposed under the sun for an hour.
Please be patient, okay?
It'll be our turn soon.
Hold on. Hold on.
Hold on. Hold on.
Come on. Move forward, Move forward.
Watch out. Watch out.
Please make way. Please make way.
Why are you so late?
I am very fast actually.
Come on. Give me the water.
Go. Go, go.
Sorry. Please make way. Please make way.
Have some water. Have some water. Have some water.
I treat you to water.
Come on. Come on. Come on.
Give me a bottle.
It's okay. Be careful.
You all can have a bottle.
Here you are. Here you are.
Who doesn't have one? Who doesn't have one?
You Didn't you keep one bottle for yourself?
Did you give me the chance?
Come on. It's just spring water.
I'll give you a bucket of it.
You can drink mine.
What about you?
I drank some water when I came.
Thanks.
Wait.
Give me the water.
Zhu Yun, go.
What?
Hello, senior.
Which class are you in?
Wait outside.
Well, senior.
It's too hot.
I want to send you some water.
Have some water.
Thank you, senior.
Which class are you from?
Applied Technology Class 1.
Where did you go?
Monitor took me to do something bad.
Nonsense.
Gao,
are all boys here?
Don't cause any trouble later.
One is not here.
Who?
Is it Li Xun again?
Who else can it be?
Who is Li Xun?
He didn't appear at the class meeting or go to the dormitory.
Does he have some illness?
You all haven't seen him?
Nope.
Applied Technology Class 1.
Our class. Our class.
Okay.
Now I'll call your names one by one by the student number.
When you hear your name, you'll go inside to take the textbooks.
Please keep absolutely silent.
Can you do it?
Yes.
No. 1, Li Xun.
Isn't Li Xun here?
Is Li Xun here?
You're quite handsome, buddy.
Where did he have his hair dyed?
Li Xun.
Here.
Are you Li Xun?
Go.
He is so
Arrogant.
To be honest,
I don't know whether it's our good luck or bad luck
to have such a strange classmate.
You're just an acting monitor.
Don't worry so much.
After the class leadership election tomorrow,
I will become the formal monitor.
I guess no one is interested in being the monitor
besides you.
It's not an interest.
It's the glorious mission
to serve the whole class devotedly.
I learned it.
What?
Only you can describe empleomania
as a great honor.
[Dormitory No. 3]
Is Ren Di doing music again?
I guess so.
She
didn't go to take her textbooks,
and we have to take them back for her.
We're roommates.
It's okay.
I feel so tired with my arms and legs.
I love air conditioning.
Ren Di,
here are your textbooks.
Thank you.
What do we eat for dinner?
Everything is fine.
Be specific.
Everything is the most difficult.
Do you need to turn to the admission handbook for this?
Take a rest, curve wrecker.
The fun of college lies in exploration.
How about we start from the snack street at the back gate?
We'd better eat in the canteen.
The handbook says
canteen is important experience of college life.
Broccoli, tenderloin and drumstick.
Here you are.
Where's your food?
I ordered a portion of malatang.
More than 20 persons are waiting in line before me.
I can't get my food for the moment.
Where do we sit?
There are seats over there.
Go, go, go. Quick, quick, quick.
I swear that
I only played games
with my good friends yesterday.
What?
Wait.
You played games for a whole night?
Don't go.
Don't you believe me?
I can call them all here.
I don't believe you.
I
Wait.
Come on. Sit here. Sit here.
How did you know they were leaving?
When I came in the canteen,
I noticed that they were quarreling.
So, we need to learn to
observe life.
You are right.
Would you like some soup? I'm going to get a bowl of it.
I have soup with malatang.
Hello, Miss Zhang.
I'm not busy. What's the matter?
Okay. Okay, okay.
Okay.
Hey,
this seat is taken.
This seat is taken by Fang Shumiao.
Fang Shumiao,
the acting monitor of our class. Do you know?
How does it taste?
Not bad.
If you want to sit here,
I can take the seat for you.
Go on.
Well, you can sit there.
Li Xun?
Zhu Yun,
whose meal is this?
Mine.
Thinking it's too cold here,
I put your meal over there.
I'm sorry.
We picked the same dishes.
How about you have mine?
Or do you want to have something else? My treat.
I just went out to answer a phone call.
I didn't expect you would make such a mistake.
Stop laughing.
I'm not laughing.
I mean what I say. The water is for you.
Be slow. Don't get choked.
He's really unreasonable.
We're classmates, and it's normal that
we treat each other to a meal.
Or I can give the meal expense back to him.
Fang Shumiao!
Li Xun. Li Xun.
It's me, Gao Jianhong.
They call me Gao.
I am also in Applied Technology Class 1.
You and I live next door.
I'm living in Room 205.
Li Xun,
student numbers of our school
are based on our admission scores.
I'm No. 2, and you're No. 1.
I was ranked sixth in the province.
What about you?
Li Xun?
Let's chat.
Li Xun?
Well, you go on showering.
I'll wait for you to go back together.
I'll wait for you.
Take a shower.
It took you so long.
I see that you like programming. I like it too.
I liked playing computer when I was in junior high school.
I joined the school's coding society when I was in high school.
We can communicate in the future.
You don't seem to talk much.
Programming develops so fast now.
Computer programming
and hypertext preprocessor
are complicated.
In my opinion, no matter how good a person is,
it's hard for him to master so many languages.
So I decide to
set up a programming interest group
for mutual learning and exchange
to learn from other's strong points to make up our deficiencies and make progress together.
Are you interested in it?
No.
Li Xun,
please give us a chance
to learn from you.
To learn from other's strong points to make up our deficiencies is the most efficient way to learn.
Do I
have deficiencies?
Hello?
In hospital?
So serious?
Wait. I'll be right there.
Li Xun,
my friend's parents come here.
He asked me to book a room
in the hotel at the south gate of our school.
Room 312.
I'll ask him to take the room card from you later.
My good friend suffers acute gastroenteritis.
I need to see him in the hospital.
I'm giving the room card to you.
Remember to give it to him.
Gao Jianhong.
Li Xun.
It's for you. Money.
It's you?
Room 312 at the south gate.
What's this?
Look at it.
Did he give you the room card?
Is Li Xun so active?
You're good, Zhu Yun.
What a strange attitude you have!
Yes, you need to show your attitude.
He dated you directly.
That's indecent.
Come on. We're adults.
It's acceptable.
What else did he say to you?
He only said Room 312.
Do you think the New Student Handbook will tell you
everything about your life?
I'm checking the map.
What to do when asked out by a boy at the start of school?
There is indeed a hotel outside our school.
You are exposed.
You want to go, right?
Take it, take it, take it.
Take it away.
It doesn't matter.
It's your trophy.
Yeah.
In our grade
No,
among all freshmen,
you're the first one.
Show me your hand.
What?
Right hand.
I need to see your love line.
I'm going to tattoo one.
You are so dirty.
Wu Mengxing.
You know my name.
From Jiangxi.
Yes.
My hometown is Baihugou Village, Yanglin Town,
Taihe County, Ji'an City.
And I have a sister.
Okay. I know you.
I don't like to be disturbed
when I'm writing codes.
Sorry.
Well
Anything else?
Zhu Yun in our class asked me to give this to you.
And she has a message.
Please be self-dignified.
Why didn't you urge me?
Come on.
You are too picky
about your dress.
Are you going to take part in the class leadership election
or to have a blind date?
We're almost 10 minutes late.
If I can't be elected as the monitor because I'm late,
all my previous efforts will be in vain.
You will become the monitor.
Fang Shumiao,
you are even late for the class leadership election.
Don't you want to be the monitor?
I'm sorry, Miss Zhang.
She overslept from her nap.
Take a seat.
Sit here.
Move.
What?
Move.
Sit down.
Sit down.
Miss Zhang is angry.
Now the meeting begins.
The main purpose of the meeting today
is the class leadership election.
But before the election,
I'd like to introduce a student to you.
He didn't attend the military training because he was ill.
Li Xun,
introduce yourself.
Li Xun?
My name is Li Xun.
I'm the first place in this year's college entrance examination.
You may not know.
Li Xun is the top scorer of science
of our province.
It's him.
All examinees in the province
♫I don't know how you've been♫
lost to this eccentric guy.
♫I don't know how you've been♫
He chooses this major
and it fully shows that
♫You don't know how I've been♫
this major
♫Nothing has changed♫
has great industry prospects.
♫Nothing has changed♫
I hope you
♫Have you ever changed?♫
can cherish this opportunity
♫Have you ever changed?♫
and study hard
to become
people who are useful to society.
Okay.
Next, let's start the class leadership election.
Fang Shumiao. Fang Shumiao.
Wang Ting.
Fang Shumiao,
Congratulations to Fang Shumiao.
She has officially become
the monitor of Applied Technology Class 1.
Trust me, Miss Zhang
and my dear classmates.
I will work harder
to complete the tasks from the department
and provide good services for you all.
Okay. Okay, okay.
Fang Shumiao,
change the blackboard.
Okay.
Next,
we'll select the commissary in charge of studies.
If cadre group of a class is compared to
the four characters in the Journey to the West,
the monitor is Tang Sanzang
the commissary in charge of studies is Sun Wukong,
and student in charge of general affairs is Monk Sha.
Which class cadre is Zhu Bajie?
Miss Zhang asked you to introduce yourself.
Introduce yourself.
Zhu Bajie
Zhu Yun. My name is Zhu Yun.
I graduated from Linyang No. 1 High School.
Zhu Yun,
are you recommending yourself?
Yes.
You can't be late tomorrow.
So strict.
Of course.
Or my credits will be deducted.
The top scorer in our class
is unique even in the whole country.
Anyway, I've never heard that
a top scorer who has golden hair.
And he seems to be hard to get along.
It's not a big deal.
Zhu Bajie is surnamed Zhu.
Your surname is Zhu as well.
Stop looking.
If you keep looking at him, he'll go into your dream.
If so, that will be a nightmare.
Go.
Morning. Morning.
Two persons are absent.
Ren Di didn't come back last night.
The school just began.
She really doesn't obey rules.
Where's Li Xun?
Why doesn't he come?
He left right after he got up this morning.
I thought he was going to the class.
It's five minutes to seven.
Why haven't they come?
By my understanding,
Li Xun won't
attend the morning self-study.
He must attend it.
Members from the student union will come to call the roll later.
Our class points will be deducted for absence from morning self-study.
I need to call him.
No answer.
He doesn't reply to me on WeChat .
It's normal.
I sent him a lot of messages,
and he never replied.
He didn't reply to me either.
I need to make every possible effort.
He replied!
What did he say?
[Li Xun
Fang Shumiao: It's almost seven o'clock. Li Xun, where are you?
Li Xun: It's none of your business.]
It's none of your business.
How can he be so rude?
It's good enough.
He sent a reply to you.
Are you going to send another message?
[Li Xun
Fang Shumiao: It's almost seven o'clock. Li Xun, where are you?
Li Xun: It's none of your business.]
I think he needs to be saved.
Our class points will be deducted for absence from morning self-study.
Come to the class.
It's none of my business.
It's none of my business.
It's none of your business. It's none of my business.
Li Xun sounds like a philosopher
when he says these two words.
[Fang Shumiao: Li Xun, hope you have a sense of collective honor.
You have been blacklisted!]
He even black
No way. Someone!
Give me your phone.
He doesn't add me on WeChat.
Gao.
Li Xun doesn't reply to Gao either.
He doesn't reply to anyone of us.
He's not a normal person.
Is he coming to the class for morning self-study or not?
I think it's a bit too late.
Hello, seniors.
Is everyone here?
I'm going to start the roll call.
Hope you freshmen will observe the school rules
and protect the class collective honor.
Li Xun.
Li Xun is No. 1, and Ren Di is No. 2.
What are you doing?
Choose one.
These two persons don't attend morning self-study.
You and I will each be responsible for
one of them.
Why should I make a choice? I'm not the monitor.
I don't need to be responsible.
It's an urgent task.
I'll treat you to Adao Barbecue.
Or Chun Wei Zhai,
though it's expensive.
No.
Do you want to have Tang Gong?
Since you don't make a choice, I'll do it.
I choose the left one.
It's Ren Di.
I'll be responsible for urging Ren Di to attend morning self-study.
You'll be responsible for urging Li Xun to attend morning self-study.
Seniors said that
double points will be deducted for absence in the future.
Four points a day.
It's none of my business.
Don't you want to contact Li Xun more
to erase the misunderstanding between you?
It's none of your business.
Can you bear to watch me losing the national prize,
the scholarship
and the place for postgraduate recommendation?
No way.
I'll never speak to him again.
♫I pass by the world♫
You appear to be a programming expert
♫I pass by the world♫
