Help!

Help me!

Someone help!

It's no use yelling my dear,

you're in way over your pretty head.

Know why he isn't coming to save you?

Because he never loved you.

I said I loved him - he didn't disagree!

Before I die, can I tell you a secret?

Take that!

I knew you would come for me!

Sorry, traffic held me up.

Life is worth the adventure.

And the biggest adventure of

all is falling in love.

When I'm drawing,

I'm queen of the world,

calling all the shots.

I can have a great adventure,

create the perfect man,

and kiss him in the end.

The only problem is that

at the end of the day,

my prince only exists on paper.

If only you were real.

Another masterpiece for submission.

That's what I think anyway.

Well,

it is what it is.

One more try.

He's not a real man.

I know.

Sophie, look at your life!

You graduated years ago,

and haven't kept a relationship

longer than six months.

You're not getting younger,

hurry up and find someone to marry!

Morn, get out of my head!

Always going on about marriage!

It really gets old!

For a girl, marriage

is more important than a career.

You don't want to end up like me,

settling with the only man left.

Look what she wears

all day!

How are you going to

get a man's attention

dressed like a cartoon!

Your mother is right! Always right!

I'm a creative professional.

When my career takes off,

then I'll worry about marriage!

OK?

Stop nagging!

Sophie, your fridge

is a mess.

Everything is expired!

I'm gonna be late for work.

This is my life.

It all starts at this

humble alley where I live.

I'm just a normal girl,

living a normal life,

working a dead-end job

to keep a roof over my head.

Sophie you got a package!

We're in the middle of the Suning

Sweepstakes, keep your receipt,

you might win a trip to Singapore!

Sophie!

But I have dreams for my life.

One day, I'll be published.

My prince will come and

sweep me off my feet.

Romance and adventure

are around the corner.

A surprise

will strike at anytime!

Hello, hello? I need a flight

from Beijing to Tianjin, Kitten.

What's it gonna cost?

First class only!

And I need a deal!

Hello!

Hello!

Anyone there?

I'm here,

What kind of service is this?

Yes,

- Don't hang up,

- I'm gonna.

Ok yes!

Report you!

I'll sell you the ticket!

Sophie,

Everyone stand up!

Last month you were late four times.

This month, you were early four times.

But I got all my work done.

Right, but you want to

win an employee award, right?

You win Worst Employee

of the Year!

Look at Sophie here.

Bad sales,

bad organization,

and her garlic noodles

stink up the lunch room.

Learn from her incompetence!

- Understand?

- Understood...

We're all working through lunch today!

Stop! Stop! Stop!

Stop hitting me!

Hello?

Hello, Ms. Sophie,

I'm calling

from Suning's Guest Relations.

Congratulations, you're the winner

of the "My Lucky Star" sweepstakes!

The prize is a Luxury

5-day trip to Singapore.

In a moment you'll be able to register

via your mobile.

Thanks for your support, goodbye!

Bye!

This is actually for real!

Sophie,

let's have fun tonight OK?

Speed Bar.

I can't.

I'm busy.

See!

She's hermiting.

Hey Sophie,

you gotta get out of the house.

Otherwise you will go stale.

We had a blast last time.

You got yourself quite a catch.

Are you kidding?!

You got the hot drummer.

I got stuck with

his chubby drunk friend.

Sophie, I got a good one for you

this time.

My hubby's got a rich friend

in the energy business.

Hey!

I want to date a oil magnate!

How come you never set me up?

Give me a break.

You switch boyfriends

more often than you change underwear.

Your husband changes girlfriends

faster than I change boyfriends!

Low blow!

I'm helping Sophie

because she's terrible with men!

You've had every man in Beijing.

Are you calling me loose?!

Never!

But you do have a reputation

as a slut.

OK! I will come.

By the way,

CiCi is coming too.

If you don't want "The

Fabulous One" talking crap,

Dress smart.

Excuse me,

Can discounted items be returned?

Of course not!

Oh my god!

What's wrong with you?

This'll shut CiCi up.

Don't get it dirty or

else you can't return it.

How's the new comic book coming?

I've turned the hero

into the perfect man.

He's kind, understanding, elegant,

resourceful,

and so handsome...

This type of man

is most likely "happy."

I'm not worried. Happy guys"

can be made straight.

Hey,

check this out,

I won a trip

to Singapore.

How much you think I can get for it online?

Why the heck are YOU not going?

Vacationing by myself?

A bit pitiful don't you think?

Do you smell that?

CiCi.

Hi!

Let me introduce. My boyfriend Thomas...

- Hi!

- Hi

Lucy.

Publishing executive with a great future.

- Hello!

- Hi!

Lily.

Just got married to a rich guy.

Sophie,

sells plane tickets.

Honey,

your tag-

Always so forgetful.

Here, let me help you with that.

No need to thank me.

Thomas, lets do our thing

in the bathroom.

OK.

Ladies, it's gonna be a while.

Wait for me.

They're going to the bathroom together?

She's changing his diaper.

Slut.

B*tch!

Shhh!

Take it easy.

If only I was like the

heroine of my stories,

I wouldn't take her sh*t!

Sophie!

You are the heroine of your stories!

Why don't you go to Singapore!

Or...

we could come with you.

Right!

Yeah let's go!

I'll go anywhere they speak Chinese.
