Love is Sweet: The Nation’s Princess Meets Her True Love

Excerpt: The corners of Lu Chenjun’s lips slightly curled up into an unreadable smile. ‘I let you go once because I was foolish and I thought that was what you wanted. I didn’t cherish you and didn’t treat you well before. Now that you are back, I will definitely not let you leave my side again. . . never again.’ Lu Chenjun stared at the woman on the screen with gentle and loving eyes, ‘Yinghui, let me take care of you, spoil you, and love you. . .’ --- Just like any other romance story, our female lead Jin Yinghui was cruelly kicked out of her home at the age of 18. In despair, she left for Korea and became a successful female idol through her hard work and dedication. Her breathtaking visuals and diverse talents earned her the title of the Nation’s Princess in Korea. She tried her best to wipe away all the bad memories from her past and even used a different name, Elena. Her life takes another turn when her company sends her back to her birthplace, Jin Province. In her homeland, new challenges are awaiting her. Jealousy from other celebrities and little fame in the entertainment industry of the Jin Province all stand as obstacles that prevent Elena from taking the easy path. However, one good thing does find its way to Elena in the Jin Province. She meets Lu Chenjun, the CEO of the LIQuan Company. As a playboy, he develops an interest in Elena and asks her to be his girlfriend. Elena understands that she needs a pillar to hold onto and help her build a strong foundation in the entertainment industry of the Jin Province. She consents to his proposal and Lu Chenjun becomes her first boyfriend. Will their relationship remain strong or will the challenges that appear break them apart? --- Note: This is a slow romance novel and there are some misunderstandings that all get cleared up relatively quickly.

Director Liu's Story

From afar, Lu Chenjun smiled as he waited for Elena to finish her first three scenes. She looked even more beautiful in a historical costume!

Elena thanked the crew after finishing her first few scenes and left to go change into her next costume.

After she stepped out of the changing area, she immediately caught sight of Lu Chenjun. She tried to walk away, but Lu Chenjun saw her too and immediately walked over.

"Hello, did you miss me?"

"No. Is that all you can say?" This time, Elena's outfit was much lighter. The scene was before Elena entered the palace, so she was wearing a simple gown and her hair was tied up in a half-ponytail.

"I can also say I missed you."

Elena walked over to her chair to do her makeup and Lu Chenjun followed, "What are you doing here?"

"I'm the largest sponsor of this film, so I'm here to check the progress," Lu Chenjun said as he played around with a strand of Elena's wig.

Elena slapped Lu Chenjun's hand away and sat down so the makeup artist could do her makeup.

"Do you sponsor every single film you could get your hands on?"

Lu Chenjun smiled and sat down in an empty chair next to her, "No, I sponsor every film you are in."

Elena rolled her eyes but didn't reply, trying her best to cooperate with the makeup artist. As she was doing her eyebrows, Director Liu walked over.

"Yinghui, can I talk to you about the next scene?"

"Okay, Director Liu. I am almost done with my makeup," Elena said as the makeup artist moved on to the eyeshadow.

"Take your time," Director Liu smiled and turned to look at the man sitting on the chair next to Jin Yinghui.

Her eyes widened and a hint of excitement flashed through her eyes. It was him!

--- Three years ago

Director Liu, or Liu Xingyi, walked into a VIP private room inside the hotel. Several famous male producers and directors sat inside, waiting for her to come in.

Liu Xingyi had just entered the film director industry, and no one was willing to hire her. Her only choice was to attend these gatherings to hopefully gain some connections and opportunities.

She sat down in between two middle-aged men, and one immediately put his arm around her. Liu Xingyi uncomfortably moved away from him, but her leg accidentally touched the other men.

The fat man immediately smiled slyly and placed his hand on her leg.

"Director Liu, don't be uncomfortable. You have to get used to this if you want to become famous. Here, drink this." The man handed her a glass of red wine.

Liu Xingyi smiled politely and gently pushed the glass away, "I'm sorry, I can't drink."

The man's smile slightly froze on his face and he licked his lips, "Don't act innocent, hurry and drink it. Only one cup."

Liu Xingyi moved his hand away from her leg and said again, "I really can't drink."

The man's smile completely disappeared and he grabbed onto Liu Xingyi's face, placed the glass up to her mouth, and tilted it so the liquid entered her lips.

Liu Xingyi quickly used her hand to push the glass away, and the cup fell down onto the hard ground, shattering into pieces.

This caused the man to get angrier, "I'm giving you face and you're not taking it, huh?!"

The man picked up another glass with more wine in it and brought it up to Liu Xingyi's mouth.

At this time, the door was flung open and in walked a tall and handsome man. He scanned the room quickly and his eyes landed on the man forcing wine into Liu Xingyi's mouth.

"Stop bullying the newbie," he said coldly before walking over to a famous producer.

The fat man gulped and gently put the glass down, "Consider yourself lucky, Director Lu saved you."

Liu Xingyi turned around to look at the man, and at first sight, her heartbeat immediately began speeding up and a slight blush passed through her face.

He had saved her. She stood up and walked over to the man that just entered the room.

"Hello, I'm Liu Xingyi. What is your name?"

Lu Chenjun looked up at her and slightly frowned before ignoring her. He turned back to the producer and continued talking to him.

"How much money do you want me to invest in 'Original Sweet'?"

Liu Xingyi awkwardly stood there and was unbothered by Lu Chenjun's attitude towards her.

"Thank you for saving me, Director Lu."

She bowed down slightly and walked out of the room, not wanting to stay at this gathering anymore.

--- Present

"It's you," Liu Xingyi exclaimed.

Elena looked at Director Liu and then looked at Lu Chenjun. Lu Chenjun ignored Liu Xingyi and continued staring at Elena.

Liu Xingyi slightly frowned when she got ignored by Lu Chenjun again. She wasn't the same Liu Xingyi she was three years ago. She deserves his respect now!

"Director Lu, do you remember me," Liu Xingyi asked.

Lu Chenjun pretended to not hear Director Liu and continued to stare at Elena with a sweet smile.

"Your makeup looks nice," Lu Chenjun said gently with a smile.

Director Liu looked at Elena and a hint of jealousy passed through her eyes. Were they dating?

Elena awkwardly smiled at Director Liu and glared at Lu Chenjun, "Are you deaf? Director Liu is talking to you."

Lu Chenjun nodded and his smile disappeared as he turned his head towards Director Liu.

"What is your problem?"

Director Liu smiled and her eyes sparkled as she said, "Director Lu, do you not remember me? Three years ago, we met inside a VIP room of a hotel. I was a newcomer back then, and you saved me. It's me, Liu Xingyi!"

Lu Chenjun nodded, obviously not interested in what Director Liu had to say. He turned back towards Elena and the gentle smile reappeared.

"Are you hungry? Thirsty? I have food with me. Or are you hot? I brought a mini-fan." Lu Chenjun said as he waved for Fang Shi to come over.

Fang Shi was carrying a huge bag and it seemed extremely heavy. From inside the bag, he pulled out chips, mini cakes, cookies, chocolates, fruits, yogurt, sunscreen, three mini fans, and an ice pack.

Lu Chenjun grabbed a white chocolate chip cookie and brought it up to Elena's mouth.

"Ah," Lu Chenjun said as he waited for Elena to open her mouth. Elena uncomfortably eyed Director Liu, who had frozen in place.

"Ah," Lu Chenjun said again.

Elena opened her mouth slightly and took a bite of the cookie. It was chewy and not too sweet, unlike the pre-packaged cookies usually bought from the store.

Lu Chenjun waited until Elena had finished chewing before urging her to take another bite. Elena frowned and glared at Lu Chenjun, signaling him to stop.

"Why, is the cookie bad?" Lu Chenjun took a bite of the cookie exactly where Elena's teeth marks were from her previous bite and shook his head.

"This cookie sucks, Fang Shi. Are you even trying to do your job well?"

Fang Shi immediately tensed up and rubbed his head confusedly. All of the snacks in the bag were top quality. He had spent a bunch of time driving from store to store to get them.

Elena noticed Fang Shi's nervousness and she immediately shook her hands, "No. The cookie tastes good. Lu Chenjun, can you move? Director Liu has to talk to me about the scene."

Lu Chenjun nodded and stood up from the chair.

"Thank you," Director Liu said as she sat down. It was apparent Lu Chenjun didn't recognize her, but it doesn't matter. She will make Lu Chenjun acknowledge her and get to like her.

Lu Chenjun ordered Fang Shi to bring over another chair, and he sat down across from Elena. He opened up the mini fan and held it up in front of Elena's face.

Director Liu opened the script and began discussing with Elena about the part.

"Lu Chenjun, can you stop blowing that at my face? I can't even open my eyes and it's not even that hot. It's winter, Lu Chenjun!"

Lu Chenjun pouted and closed the fan. Elena's expression slightly softened as she said, "You should go work."

Lu Chenjun immediately smiled and said, "This is my work."

Director Liu's face fell after getting interrupted by Elena and she couldn't hide her curiosity anymore.

"Are you guys dating?" She asked.

Elena immediately shook her head and said, "No!"

At the same time, Lu Chenjun nodded. "Yes!"

Director Liu raised one eyebrow and eyed them suspiciously.
