Nice drama special (includes translation)

There might be two drama specials, but I was only able to find one so this review is about that one.

This is a nice little extra story with our main couple. If you liked them in Love at Night, of course you should watch this. The beginning and ending are about the main couple in the same reality, but most of the story is a dream that the FL has where the actors are some other people in republican era. The "real life" parts were the most boring, but the dream story was nice, short and fluffy. Of course don't expect much, it's just a bit of extra stuff for the MC's fans. It seemed like it was not translated, at least not in YouTube where I watched it, so below is my translation of what they were talking about. Chinese is not my first native language so there might be some small mistakes but it should be pretty much correct.

------------------------------------
TRANSLATION BEGINS, AND SO DO SPOILERS
-------------------------------------

The beginning in the real world is not much important. ML is somewhere on a work trip that keeps getting longer, FL is disappointed but claims she does not miss him. She falls asleep and the story starts.

ML is a strict teacher. FL complains that he shouldn’t be because he’s not even a real piano teacher, just a doctor who has studied abroad. Her father has asked him to teach her because their families have a good relationship. FL wants to learn to play the song to perform for her father’s guests who are coming in a couple of days. ML says she played wrong, and his father would also lose face because of her mistake. She doesn’t care, nobody would notice. He says he would notice. She says she is not going to invite him – he smiles and chuckles. Then he demands he will practice ten more times, and then 20 and 30 more times as she tries to argue. She asks if she can at least go to the bathroom first and leaves the room.

In the bathroom FL wonders how she can get out of practising the piano. She comes out and pretends to feel dizzy. He tells her to rest and he’ll examine her, but she fake-insists to play and claims she likes it. He ends up lifting her up and says “Listen to be/obey me, I’m a doctor”.

ML examines FL on the bed and realizes she was faking it. He says he’ll give her an injection and then if she’s not better, he’ll take her to a hospital. She gets scared and says she feels suddenly fine. He insists it’s temporary and she ends up confessing she painted her lips paled and faked being ill. He says she probably knows what to do next and he will wait her downstairs.

Another day FL thinks about how ML comes to teach her everyday, and this day she’ll show him (or something like that). She tells him he needs to relax and asks him to dance. The servant interrupts them and says that some other lady called Chen came and the master asked him to come.

Apparently it’s a blind date. ML talks with miss Chen about her interests, while FL and servant argue outside whether the ML and miss Chen are a good couple or not. FL of course thinks they are not. She ends up saying, that miss Chen is great and must be saved from ending up with a stiff guy like ML.

When FL starts sending in the smoke, miss Chen is worried there is a fire and ML says to not worry, he’ll go and take a look. He comes out to find the FL outside flapping her fan and claiming to be innocent. He tells her not to move and tries to wipe the soot from her cheek, but she pushes his hand and tell him not to come here to pretend to be a good guy. And that who ever marries him will be unlucky. He asks how does she know he won’t treat well the woman she loves. She asks or says that miss Chen is the one he loves, but he does not have time to answer before the accident happens.

FL is wrapping the bandage on ML’s feet. She blames herself and would rather it be her that got hurt. He asks if she is worried about him, and why. For him it’s natural to save people because he’s a doctor. She says he cannot mock her, but she actually cannot stand him having a blind date with someone. He asks if she hates him so much. She does not hate him, only the piano. She confesses she likes him. He chuckles. She asks why he does not respond, and that it means he’s rejecting her and tries to leave. He stops her and says that actually it was not her father who suggested the piano lessons, it was ML himself. He also suggested the blind date to see if FL cared. She’s surprised he’s so sly and he says it’s the only way a woman as slow as she is.

A lot later, the boy runs in and calls ML dad. In the bed ML reads the story of Snow White, but the story jumps from introductions to when the prince proposes and Snow White happily accepts and they live happily ever after.

We are back in the real life. ML comes and FL asks what he’s doing there. He says she might not have missed him but he missed her, so he finished the work quickly to get back. He tricked her that he’d have to stay one more month so he could surprise her. He asks for a reward (meaning kiss) but she says he’d deserve a punishment more than a reward. She tells him she saw a dream where he taught him to play the piano. He says that’s weird, he saw a similar dream. In the dream she taught him to dance, but also in the dream she did not dance well. FL gets up and ML asks where she’s going. She says to cook and he asks if she can. She says she can’t so it’s better if he cooks. She wants eggs. She also says they are going to Fang Qi’s place in the evening.

At the party someone suggest taking a picture, who knows how long until they all get together. Another one says they should keep getting together every weekend. (It’s been a while since I saw the original drama so I have forgotten their names, sorry.) Then they all give boring life advice to the viewer. The main couple is happy to have gotten to know each other.
