DON'T MAKE LOVE A THING || RECKLESS MARRIAGE

Okay, so I was feeling crazy one day, and decided to translate (machine translate) a Chinese novel. Let me repeat, a Chinese novel, when my mandarin can't even be compared to small kids in China. But, I have accepted the fact that I'm crazy and it's summer break so let's just continue this insane ride with me.

So, the story goes back like this, I was scrolling through Shusheng Bar and was interested in a book. After reading various romantic, majestic love that span for various lifetimes, full of bloody sacrifice that kind of love story, I looked at my life and felt sad. And thus, I came across this pragmatic book called "Don't make love a thing". How great does that sound. Like honestly, let's be real here, don't make love a thing. We got more important things to deal with, like dealing with annoying professors, annoying assignments, annoying employers, and paying rents, those kind of shitty things.

 But with that being said, the "love" aspect of this book is what makes it special. It's just that it is not really the typical love story that you usually come across in the world of C-novels, so many people will also not like it very much. Also, I will also not translate every single components of the book, especially the second lead's love story which I skipped while reading and was not interested in translating. It also doesn't really affect the main couple's relationship, but if you want, I can kindly summarize it for you. I will also try my best to somehow understand the writer's intention and translate it accordingly. But be reminded, that i'm machine translating here so obviously i will make mistakes along the way.

So yes, I was completely liking how the story goes and was totally immersed in it. After rereading it using my translation tools online, I started to have a crazy idea of translating this story for you people to read. Perhaps I was feeling generous or just plainly bored. But here's a gift to you.

Oh and one more thing. I feel like the first few chapters at the beginning are not really as good as the middle-end section. So, if you think that it's quite boring at first, I recommend to just continue for a few more chapters and the story will pick up. However, it's necessary to read through the beginning chapters just to understand more about our main characters.  

Summary // Writer: Bu Jing Yu  (From sushengbar, not my own words):

Tu Ran sells medicine to doctors for a living. Her nickname is “Little Pharmaceutical Representative”. Every day, she mixes with the doctors and pharmacists. Lu Cheng Yu is a young professor at the hospital, a rising surgeon in the field of heart surgery, his future is lit in gold. After a one night stand, they both parts ways – seemingly without a trace of emotion.

Two months later, Tu Ran realizes that she is pregnant. When she is at the hospital to abort the baby, she accidentally sees Lu Cheng Yu’s very rich father drive a luxurious car to meet his son. After realizing that Lu Cheng Yu has a wealthy father, Tu Ran suddenly decides not to abort the baby. On the second day, Tu Ran brings the ultrasound scan of the baby to find Lu Cheng Yu, with the baby as a bargaining chip, she proposes marriage. After a night of consideration, Lu Cheng Yu agrees……

Can this secret in Tu Ran’s heart be hidden? What will happen after Lu Cheng Yu finds out? How will these two seemingly unrelated people pass their lives together? Can two people who had entered the hall of marriage for a ridiculous reason ends up receiving happiness?


Tu Ran: Tu ran was described as someone attractive but the type of attractive that can only be the mistress. As I am a person of visuals, I was thinking that I should include a picture of what Turan is kinda like, in my mind at least. 

Does these pictures look mistress-y to you? lol. 

Lu Chengyu: Lu Chengyu is even harder to visualize, even more so to find a picture that's kind of like him is too hard. Therefore, just close your eyes and just imagine a very attractive guy.
