| 5 | [[folder:Time Photo Studio]] |
| 6 | * CatDogDichotomy: Promotional materials associate the more active, affection seeking Xiaoshi with dogs; while associating the more aloof Guang with cats. |
| 7 | * CynicIdealistDuo: Xiaoshi goes into each dive wanting to complete the task set out for them, but easily gets sidetracked into wanting to do the right thing or make the situation better for their client. Lu Guang doesn't always give himself that luxury, preferring to stick to the current timeline of events and [[spoiler:outright trick Xiaoshi into letting a node happen if nothing can be done]]. |
| 8 | * EveryoneWentToSchoolTogether: Xiaoshi and Qiao Ling have known each other since at least childhood, but they didn't meet Lu Guang until college. They all remained friends there. |
| 9 | * HairContrastDuo: Applies to both Xiaoshi/Guang and Ling/Guang. Both of the darker haired characters are much more emotionally open, while the lighter haired Guang is reserved and professional. |
| 10 | * NiceMeanAndInbetween: Cheng Xiaoshi is impulsive, but he wears his heart on his sleeve and won't hesitate to help someone if he can. Qiao Ling isn't totally mean, but she's got quite the sharp tongue and isn't afraid to be blunt with someone, especially if that someone is Xiaoshi. Lu Guang, by contrast, seems rather cold, but he has a heart underneath his stoicism and will sometimes allow Xiaoshi to break their personal rules to make a client's situation a little better. |
| 11 | * RedOniBlueOni: Lu Guang is almost always in control of his emotions, while Cheng Xiaoshi is an open book with energy to spare. |
| 12 | * TwoGuysAndAGirl: Xiaoshi and Guang form this trio with Qiao Ling. It also, coincidentally, corresponds to the heroes of the ''Star of Justice'' cartoon, which lets them cheer up a shaken Doudou. |

| 17 | [[quoteright:540:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tumblr_c08b06c6d0372dacd713cf260d7173e4_83d1cdbb_540_3.jpg]] |
| 18 | -> '''Voiced by:''' Su Shangqing (Chinese), Creator/ToshiyukiToyonaga (Japanese), Creator/AlejandroSaab (English), Creator/XantheHuynh (Young - English) |
| 19 | A boy who can travel through photos to help fulfill their clients request, and refuses to leave the building until his parents return. |
| 20 | ---- |
| 21 | * ActingUnnatural: Whenever he enters someone new for the first time, he can come off as a bit stiff and oftentimes needs Lu Guang's prompting to stay in character. |
| 22 | * AllMenArePerverts: |
| 23 | ** When he takes over Emma's body, he looks down at his chest and tries to feel them up. Lu Guang immediately calls him out for it and tells him to stay focused. |
| 24 | ** When Qiao Ling presses herself close to his arm as Xu Shanshan, he blushes and nervously tries to make some space. |
| 25 | * AnimalMotifs: Dogs, based off of the chibi spin off. |
| 26 | * BadBadActing: Even with Lu Guang's guidance, he can come across as this. The people he interacts with when he dives either don't notice much of a change or decide not to question why their loved one is acting so weird. |
| 27 | * BigBrotherInstinct: While being younger than Qiao Ling, he still looks out for her and is willing to fight whoever hurts her. |
| 28 | * BrokenTears: [[spoiler: After Lu Guang deceives him by pretending to agree in saving their clients mother, but ends up still keeping her death with her shielding her son's body from their fallen house.]] Cheng Xiaoshi is understandably angry after he comes back as he punches Lu Guang in the face and soon falls to the floor in tears. |
| 29 | * ButtMonkey: During some dives he's forced into some pretty funny situations while Lu Guang chastises him for not staying on task. Such as telling Cheng Xiaoshi not to eat while he loudly slurps some noodles, or calmly tells him to be on time by climbing a ton of stairs. Qiao Ling also isn't above beating Cheng Xiaoshi up if she feels he's being rude. |
| 30 | * CassandraTruth: Played for drama in episode 5 where he tries to warn the townsfolk [[spoiler: of the earthquake that would occur at 8:30pm on May 12, 2008, which happened to be the day he was in.]] While he tries his best, but can't change the past, he's forced to lie and say he read about it in a magazine. |
| 31 | * ChekhovsSkill: He learns some self-defense and martial arts alongside Qiao Ling, and it ends up coming in handy in at least 3 of his cases. From [[spoiler: upper cutting the human trafficker who kidnapped Li Doudou]], to [[spoiler: protecting Xu Shanshan from what he thought was the serial killer]] and [[spoiler: actually confronting the serial killer themself.]] |
| 32 | * ChildhoodFriends: He and Qiao Ling have known each other since they were little. |
| 33 | * DidNotThinkThisThrough: Sometimes does something or is about to do something off his own whim, which is why Lu Guang has to feed him lines or information to "stay in character". |
| 34 | * DontYouDarePityMe: He yells this at the adults who wonder how they should take care of him now that his parents have left him, but he refuses to be seen as defenseless or pitiable. |
| 35 | * TheEmpath: Inherits his clients memories and emotions when he "dives". He can be a bit overwhelmed during jobs or gets too caught up as he forgets he's in the past or the fact he's living other people's lives and not his own. This is why Lu Guang is usually the one to remind him to not do anything out of line or they'll cause more harm than they intended. |
| 36 | * EmptyPromise: He promises [[spoiler: the serial killer]] he will not notify the police of their movement so long as they [[spoiler: promise not to harm Xu Shanshan and come find him from the hint they will send.]] He [[spoiler: does not hold up to his end of the "game" as he had Lu Guang contact the police as he tricks the serial killer into confessing their crimes.]] He ends up paying for "cheating". |
| 37 | * ExhaustedEyeBags: While not that clear in the promotional material, the area beneath his eyes do seem a bit dark at times. Given the kind of work he does, it's possible that not only does going through the photos sap his energy, but staying up late to do so also affects his sleep. |
| 38 | * EyesAreMental: Whenever he dives into a new form, they always retain his SupernaturalGoldEyes. |
| 39 | * {{Foreshadowing}}: While told in a playful manner, Cheng Xiaoshi tells Lu Guang not to do "politics behind my back" or he'd punch him. Once Cheng Xiaoshi [[spoiler: tries to protect Chen Xiao's mother from the earthquake but she still ultimately dies, he ends up punching Lu Guang in the face after leaving the dive, after the other had promised he would try to save her.]] |
| 40 | * FriendlessBackground: Aside from Qiao Ling, he doesn't seem to have that many friends. When he was a kid and his parents essentially abandoned him, this left him bitter and unable to open up to others. According to Qiao Ling, when she's talking to Lu Guang, he's the first friend Cheng Xiaoshi had made in a long time. |
| 41 | * {{Foil}}: In terms of color palette, eye color when activating their powers, and personality, he's this to Lu Guang. While he's impulsive and gets wrapped up in the memories of their clients, Lu Guang is calm and professional to make sure they don't change anything in the past. |
| 42 | * HatesBeingAlone: Especially in episode 5 where [[spoiler: he's almost buried alive with his client's mother shielding him so he would survive the earthquake. When he realizes his client's mother has died, he screams out how he's scared of the dark and is afraid of being alone.]] |
| 43 | * HypocriticalHumor: After eating bowl after bowl of noodles, he grumbles saying he never wants to eat another bowl of noodles again. But once he sees a photo of the original "Girl's Dormitory Noodles" he instantly wants to dive into it so he can try them one last time. |
| 44 | * IncorruptiblePurePureness: Lu Guang when he first met Cheng Xiaoshi describes him as naive while Qiao Ling says that there's something pure and innocent about Cheng Xiaoshi that makes others want to protect him. |
| 45 | * LeaningOnTheFourthWall: In episode 4, he jokingly tells Chen Xiao's crush that he learned to play basketball through watching cartoons on Bilibili. |
| 46 | * LogicalWeakness: [[spoiler: He can enter photos on his own by clapping his own hands, but that leaves him to run in blindly with no guidance from Lu Guang.]] He also can't use his abilities if someone manages to pin his arms down. |
| 47 | * LuminescentBlush: When he sees a pretty girl, or has a girl get close to him he tends blush. This occurs during a few jobs for a couple of his clients. |
| 48 | * ManIFeelLikeAWoman: In the first two episodes, he mainly inhabits the bodies of his female clients. Although he was about to feel Emma up in his first job, his next one has him telling off a delivery man for asking why he decided to run a noodle shop instead of finding a man and settling down. When in Xu Shanshan's body, he pretends he needs to take a leak to not alert the serial killer, but then realizes he can't exactly do that as a girl. |
| 49 | * TheMindIsAPlaythingOfTheBody: Xiaoshi can mostly keep his thoughts his own, but sometimes he will be able to experience his possessed body's actual emotions. For example, he experiences CrushBlush on both Cheng Xiao and Xu Shanshan with their respective love interests, even though he's neutral on them personally. |
| 50 | * MistakenForMurderer: [[spoiler: After managing to wrestle the knife out of a possessed Qiao Ling's hands, the police arrive seeing the bloody knife in his hands. With Lu Guang near death and Qiao Ling unable to remember what happened, Cheng Xiaoshi is immediately pegged down for what appears to be an attempted murder. He spends the first part of season 2 trying to prove his innocence.]] |
| 51 | * MommasBoy: He's greatly affected by his client's love for their mothers in most of the dives, even beginning to refer to them as his own mother. Episode 5 seems to imply he was closer to his mother than his father. |
| 52 | * MundaneUtility: Can travel back through time in the photos their clients provide for them and even relive their memories. How does he use it sometimes? After finishing one case, he ''begs'' to dive into one photo that shows the first "Noodles of the Girl's Dormitory" his client and her friend had and wanted to try it one last time. He ends up getting his way by tricking Lu Guang into holding his hand up and clapping it. |
| 53 | * MyGodWhatHaveIDone: After punching a stalker in Xu Shanshan's body, [[spoiler: later when they try to contact her, her number can't be reached and Cheng Xiaoshi starts panicking as he assumes her disappearance was his fault for acting rashly in chasing down who he assumed was a serial killer.]] He also [[spoiler: accidentally witnesses Emma's death and blames himself for typing a message to her parents and believes if he hadn't, it wouldn't have lead to Emma's death.]] This is his reaction by the end of the season when [[spoiler: he watches a possessed Emma being forced to jump to her death and comes back to the studio to find a possessed Qiao Ling has stabbed Lu Guang as the serial killer notes they have "reset their game".]] |
| 54 | * NervousWreck: Not as bad as the trope usually gets, but during some dives he does start to devolve into what could be a panic attack. This usually occurs [[spoiler: when he experiences someone close to him dying like Chen Xiao's mother, or hearing someone being murdered, like Emma]]. Lu Guang is usually there to remind him to leave if he can't take what he's seeing in the dives. |
| 55 | * NoGoodDeedGoesUnpunished: No matter how hard he tries, his good intentions usually come back to bite him horribly. |
| 56 | ** When he texts Emma's parents a message, despite Lu Guang telling him to ignore it, this leads to Emma's parents coming over to clean up her apartment, give her clothes and food. This causes Emma to run out to try and meet them [[spoiler: and ends in her being murdered.]] Even when [[spoiler: Cheng Xiaoshi attempts to stop Emma from committing suicide, the serial killer takes over her body and forces her to jump.]] |
| 57 | ** Cheng Xiaoshi tires to chase after who he thinks is the serial killer when he's in Xu Shanshan's body, only to find out [[spoiler: it was just a guy Xu Shanshan had spurned earlier]]. However, this takes a darker turn after she makes headlines in the news and [[spoiler: the serial killer decides to try and kill her due]] to her connection to the Time Studio. |
| 58 | ** Then there's Cheng Xiaoshi promising [[spoiler: he won't notify the police if the serial killer promises to find him at the studio and not to harm Xu Shanshan]]. When he manages to corner them [[spoiler: he had Lu Guang notify the police so they can arrest Liu Min.]] This ends with [[spoiler: the serial killer possessing Emma, Liu Min and Qiao Ling; with them forcing Emma to jump, Liu Min to strangle himself and Qiao Ling to [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice stab Lu Guang]] because Cheng Xiaoshi violated the "rules" of their "game".]] |
| 59 | * NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: Pretty much gives this to [[spoiler: Liu Min]] during their confrontation. |
| 60 | * ParentalAbandonment: It's implied when he's inhabiting Emma's body that his home life wasn't a joyful as hers and he's been waiting for his parents to return to the building for him. When he was younger, he runs to Qiao Ling [[spoiler: tearfully asking if it was possible his parents were caught in the earthquake]], and cries that he misses his parents. He's still hoping they'll come back one day. |
| 61 | * PleaseDontLeaveMe: [[spoiler: Once Cheng Xiaoshi realizes Chen Xiao's mother is dead, he starts panicking and screaming for her to stay awake. Amongst some of the things he yells, he begs her not to leave him alone.]] |
| 62 | * PowersViaPossession: When he possesses others like Chen Xiao, he can see fine without the need of the other's glasses, which kept him handicapped in the early part of the game [[spoiler: until the rival captain knocks them off of his face and breaks them]]. He also retains his usual amount of strength [[spoiler: even in a child's body, which allows him to punch the human trafficker with enough force to send a tooth flying out of her mouth.]] Even Xu Shanshan seems to gain a boost in strength thanks to Cheng Xiaoshi possessing her [[spoiler: which helps in stopping a serial killer from attempting to stab her]]. |
| 63 | * PronounTrouble: Whenever he enters a female clients body, he sometimes forgets to refer to himself using female pronouns. |
| 64 | --> '''Cheng Xiaoshi:''' (''as Emma'') Mom! Mom! It's your son, hang on! Bah, it's your daughter! |
| 65 | * SkewedPriorities: Why does he want to go back into one of their clients photo despite being pretty much done with the job? He wants to eat the noodles in the photo one last time, which Lu Guang attempts to chide him for. |
| 66 | * SupernaturalGoldEyes: When he possesses someone in the past, their eyes turn golden. |
| 67 | * TeleportSpam: [[spoiler: During his confrontation with Liu Min, he claps in and out of the photos he had of Liu Min's victims while also delivering a few punches and kicks Liu Min's way.]] |
| 68 | * WordPower: "Gear up. Dive!" Although he has shown he doesn't always need to say this for his powers to work, as just clapping his hand against Lu Guang's is enough to do the job. And even [[spoiler: clapping his own hands works just as well.]] |
| 69 | * WhatTheHellHero: He was royally pissed off after the Chen Xiao case, punching Lu Guang when he realized that [[spoiler:he had never intended to save Chen Xiao's mother from dying in the earthquake]]. They stop speaking to each other up until the Li family's case. |
| 70 | * WorkOffTheDebt: If what Qiao Ling said was true, she's helping paying off Cheng Xiaoshi's debt for rent at the building, in exchange for him working at the Time Photo Studio. |

| 75 | [[quoteright:540:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/tumblr_aa24b97675a872088079bf09654d9a17_071cd2ec_540_0.jpg]] |
| 76 | -> '''Voiced by:''' Yang Tiangxiang (Chinese), Creator/TakahiroSakurai (Japanese), Creator/ZenoRobinson (English) |
| 77 | A boy who can see into the photos of their clients of what happened in the last twelve hours since the photo was taken and instructs Cheng Xiaoshi how to act so they don't mess up the timeline. |
| 78 | ---- |
| 79 | * AnimalMotifs: Cats, based off the chibi spin off. He's also shown to be quite fond of the creatures, even momentarily taking care of a stray cat they found. |
| 80 | * BerserkButton: Lu Guang is hardly a fighter, unlike Cheng Xiaoshi and Qiao Ling. However, Cheng Xiaoshi almost being shot to death by [[spoiler: Qian Jin]] has Lu Guang screaming and wildly beating the other with his fists in a blind rage. |
| 81 | * BigBrotherInstinct: While Qiao Ling is older than him, he still seems protective of her as he grabbed Chen Xiao's wrist when he seemed to be stalking her. |
| 82 | * BigEater: During Cheng Xiaoshi's dives he's usually eating, to the annoyance of the other since he can't eat while on the job. |
| 83 | * BigNo: Screams this after seeing Cheng Xiaoshi almost get shot to death. [[spoiler: After TheReveal of the season 2 finale where Lu Guang has apparently traveled back into other dives, this may have been one of many times he's had to experience a failure to save Cheng Xiaoshi.]] |
| 84 | * BlatantLies: After Cheng Xiaoshi loses his gaming match to Qiao Ling, he agrees to fight her. However, she ends up [[CurbStompBattle beating him easily without taking damage]] and he immediately goes for his book and claims that he doesn't hit girls. |
| 85 | * {{Bookworm}}: When he instructs Cheng Xiaoshi on how to proceed with a job or is waiting for a certain moment to occur, he is usually seen reading books. He nags at Cheng Xiaoshi to stop being on his phone all the time and suggests reading to make him at least a bit smarter. |
| 86 | * ExhaustedEyeBags: Not as bad as Cheng Xiaoshi's, but the area beneath his eyes seem a bit dark compared to others and while he can rest between jobs, they still don't really go away since he likely stays up late anyway. |
| 87 | * {{Foil}}: In terms of color palette, eye color when activating their powers, and personality, he's this to Cheng Xiaoshi. While he comes off as cold as he's focused on fulfilling their mission and sticking to the timeline, Cheng Xiaoshi is more impulsive and emotional. |
| 88 | * {{Hypocrite}}: He always tells Cheng Xiaoshi to never, under any circumstances, no matter how he feels, to ever turn back time to change the past. Whatever happens was always going to happen, and he needs to accept it. [[spoiler: Only in the season 2 finale, Lu Guang had done just that. Turned back time in order to stop Cheng Xiaoshi's death, in what has probably happened plenty of times before.]] |
| 89 | * ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: [[spoiler: Season 1 ends with Lu Guang being stabbed by a possessed Qiao Ling. Thankfully, he's still alive in season 2.]] |
| 90 | * JackOfAllTrades: In his character profile for skills it states, "Not having skills is a skill." |
| 91 | * JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He comes off as cold and focused solely on completing the job. However, he does show a softer side around Cheng Xiaoshi, especially when he seems to be negatively affected by what Emma has to go through and does his best to comfort him. In episode 4 to 5 he even explicitly tells Cheng Xiaoshi to leave the scenario if everything is too much for him. Towards the end of episode 5, he even comforts the other by putting a hand on his shoulder and in episode 6 he even bought Cheng Xiaoshi some boba but had Qiao Ling deliver it for him. |
| 92 | * {{Kuudere}}: He's the type that never cracks a smile when someone is looking, but he will often display kindness after weighing his options and he's ultimately more awkward than he is cold if you prompt him to express his feelings. He flip flops between this and being {{Tsundere}} towards Xiaoshi. |
| 93 | * LogicalWeakness: If Cheng Xiaoshi strays too far from the original timeline, he has some problems trying to figure out what could happen next. [[spoiler: If Cheng Xiaoshi enters a dive without clapping Lu Guang's hand, he won't be able to see ahead into a photo and warn Cheng Xiaoshi of any dangers or how far off he's straying from the original timeline.]] |
| 94 | * LyingToProtectYourFeelings: Always tells Cheng Xiaoshi not to wonder about their clients' pasts or futures as they do their job. He doesn't tell Cheng Xiaoshi [[spoiler: that Emma was murdered when he wonders how she was doing.]] He also lies to him [[spoiler: when he pretends to agree that he will save Chen Xiao's mother from the earthquake so long as they both hide under the table. Chen Xiao's mother's death remains unchanged as she uses her body to shield her son from the debris of their fallen house.]] He mainly does this because he knows Cheng Xiaoshi gets too attached to the client's in his photographs and that it would possibly make Cheng Xiaoshi want to change the past in order to prevent that tragedy. |
| 95 | * MissionControl: While Cheng Xiaoshi dives into the photos, he stays behind to guide him through all of their cases as smoothly as he can so he doesn't upset the timeline. |
| 96 | * MysticalWhiteHair: Has white hair while everyone seems to have natural/ordinary hair colours. [[spoiler: While he rests in the hospital after being stabbed, Siwen pretends Lu Guang is his father-in law which the nurse seems to buy mainly due to his hair color.]] |
| 97 | * NeatFreak: His character profile on Bilibili states that amongst the things he dislikes is things being messed up after he's tidied them up. |
| 98 | * NotSoAboveItAll: Tells a hungry Cheng Xiaoshi to stay on task, while he somewhat noisily starts slurping some instant noodles back at the studio. Cheng Xiaoshi playfully punches at Lu Guang's face with the other ending the game by holding his hand out and claiming since he did "paper" and Cheng Xiaoshi has "rock", he wins the game. [[ActuallyPrettyFunny Cheng Xiaoshi laughs]] and points out Lu Guang is just as childish as he is. He also gets fired up when it's his turn to fight Qiao Ling in a video game. |
| 99 | * OccultBlueEyes: When he's looking into the past of the photos, his eyes glow blue and return to black once he's finished. |
| 100 | * OlderThanTheyLook: Surprisingly, Lu Guang is actually a bit younger than Cheng Xiaoshi, but it's hard to tell given how different the both act for their age. This is implied in the promotional art for the show, where Lu Guang's age is always blurred out. The reason for this is shown in the Season 2 finale when it's revealed that [[spoiler: Lu Guang is from an alternate timeline where Cheng Xiaoshi has died, and has been implied to have traveled to several others and reliving the moments before Cheng Xiaoshi's death. This would mean he is mentally more older than he physically is.]] |
| 101 | * TheReveal: So far, Lu Guang has only been shown to be able to look at the 24 hour timeline in a photo, but cant enter it like Cheng Xiaoshi. [[spoiler: Season 2's finale reveals he can actually enter photo like Cheng Xiaoshi by clapping his own hands together, and has been trying to circumvent Cheng Xiaoshi's death in this timeline.]] |
| 102 | * {{Seers}}: He can see into the past of photos and how to keep their outcomes. However, if Cheng Xiaoshi ends up altering a timeline, he has problems predicting any future outcomes. |
| 103 | * {{Sleepyhead}}: When he knows it will take some time before Cheng Xiaoshi runs into another problem for him to solve, he'll either be reading or sleeping. |
| 104 | * TheStoic: He hardly changes expressions, even when Cheng Xiaoshi punches him [[spoiler: after finding out he lied when he agreed to protect Chen Xiao's mother from the earthquake.]] The only times he looses his cool is if he's worried or angry at Cheng Xiaoshi trying to change something in the past. |
| 105 | * TemporalMutability: He always tells Cheng Xiaoshi to not upset anything in the past as it could affect their own timeline. Best exemplified during "#01: Emma" where he asks Cheng Xiaoshi multiple times if he ''really'' didn't do anything stupid in the past. When he claims he didn't and walks off to meet their new client, Lu Guang quietly looks at the news [[spoiler: where they report a girl had apparently committed suicide by drowning herself in the river, and blocking off Emma's eyes in her photo.]] |
| 106 | * UncertainDoom: [[spoiler: The end of season 1 seems to imply that he's dead after the serial killer takes over Qiao Ling's body in order to stab him while Cheng Xiaoshi is in a dive to help Emma. However, season 2 reveals he lived and has to recover for the rest of it.]] |
| 107 | * VagueAge: In their character previews, while Cheng Xiaoshi and Qiao Ling's ages are shown, Lu Guang's only listed as "Unknown". It's likely he's around Cheng Xioashi's age as they seemed to have met each other in high school. [[spoiler: Season 2's finale pulls up more questions as Lu Guang is likely mentally older than he appears, having gone back in time to try and stop Cheng Xiaoshi's death.]] |
| 108 | * WiseBeyondTheirYears: He seems to carry an weight of intelligence that leads to jokes of him acting more like an old man than someone his age like Cheng Xiaoshi. [[spoiler: With season 2's reveal that he's been diving in order to save Cheng Xiaoshi, he may be knowledgable due to all of the other dive's he's been in.]] |
| 109 | * YouCantFightFate: His main argument towards Cheng Xiaoshi. Especially in episode 4 where [[spoiler: Cheng Xiaoshi realizes that the day he's in is May 12, 2008. Which means the basketball captain and the girl who's their client's first crush were doomed to die in an earthquake that occurred in the city and he cannot stop it or else he'll change his won future.]] Lu Guang has to constantly yell at Cheng Xiaoshi to not do anything stupid or else they'll face the consequences. He may say this, but [[spoiler: season 2's finale reveals he has gone against his own advice, and went back in time to try and prevent Cheng Xiaoshi's death.]] |
| 110 | * YoungerThanTheyLook: He looks about Cheng Xiaoshi's age, but Qiao Ling says he's actually younger. Funnily enough, his character preview shows his age as "[[VagueAge Unknown]]". |

| 116 | -> '''Voiced by:''' Li Shimengn (Chinese), Creator/AoiKoga (Japanese), Creator/SuzieYeung (English) |
| 117 | The landlady for Cheng Xiaoshi's apartment who helps him and Lu Guang find clients for their work. |
| 118 | ---- |
| 119 | * ActionGirl: Along with Cheng Xiaoshi, she learns martial arts for self-defense. She gets to show off this skill more in season 2. |
| 120 | * AffectionateNickname: She tries to have a client of theirs refer to her as "Qiao Qiao", which he mistakes as "Jo Jo". |
| 121 | * AnimalMotifs: Rabbits. Her phone case invokes this, and she's portrayed as a rabbit in the chibi spin off series. |
| 122 | * BerserkButton: Hates being seen as old, as one of their clients said some of the rumors about the photo studio was that she was either a fairy or an "old hag". |
| 123 | * BigSisterBully: She's older than Cheng Xiaoshi, but the two aren't related. She isn't above calling Cheng Xiaoshi names or even beating him up, whether it's in a game or physically. |
| 124 | * BigSisterInstinct: |
| 125 | ** In a flashback when a young Cheng Xiaoshi runs to the studio in tears he asks Qiao Ling [[spoiler: if his parents got caught up in the Wenchuan earthquake and whether or not he'll see them again]]. She does her best to comfort him. While in the present day she treats him less gently, she still clearly looks out for him. She even admits to Xu Shanshan (who's being inhabited by Cheng Xiaoshi) that Cheng Xiaoshi is so pure that it makes others around him want to protect him. She looked after him a lot when they were younger, acting as an older sister figure to him. |
| 126 | ** She also is protective and patient with [[spoiler: Li Tianxi]], and is the only person willing to take the time to communicate with her. [[spoiler: Her kindness and care towards Li Tianxia helps them solve the case and how Li Tianchi's power works.]] |
| 127 | * ChildhoodFriends: Episode 4 shows she and Cheng Xiaoshi have known each other since they were little. She's even the one who helped him keep his time shop, telling him her father laid off on the rent and he could pay him back in ten years. |
| 128 | * TheFace: She's the public face of Time Photo Studio and its associated rumors. As such, all requests go through her before they can make their way back to the boys. |
| 129 | * FashionableAsymmetry: Her usual outfit has the right side as a short skirt while the left side is a long dress. |
| 130 | * GamerChick: Episode 6 shows she's really good at gaming, [[CurbStompBattle beating Cheng Xiaoshi and Lu Guang without breaking a sweat]]. |
| 131 | * GenkiGirl: Is peppy and cheerful, which likely helps Lu Guang and Cheng Xiaoshi to gain customers. She even has a bunny phone case to match her personality. |
| 132 | * GrandTheftMe: [[spoiler: Red Eyes possesses Qiao Ling in the season 1 finale when Cheng Xiaoshi dives to try and save Emma. In turn, he has her stab Lu Guang and attempts to have Qiao Ling take her life, but Cheng Xiaoshi manages to intervene.]] |
| 133 | * LockedOutOfTheLoop: She is actually unaware of what Lu Guang and Cheng Xiashi do exactly to solve their cases. She's always told to leave the room when they prepare to dive and she believed they were performing some kind of ritual.
