Little Wife's Diary: My Husband is My Boss!
Chapter 26: Rejected

Chapter 26: Rejected

Hearing the marketing director’s words, the crying woman beside Yan Yuling suddenly raised her head. They thought they would only pick one script today. Unexpectedly, the marketing director selected three scripts, which increased their chances of being selected.

After another fifteen minutes, they finished voting. The marketing director nodded and said, "Everyone except the screenwriters who wrote these scripts can leave the conference room."

Noticing that her script was rejected, Yan Yuling let out a long sigh. She picked up her bag and followed others to walk out of the conference room. When she looked back, she saw that the crying woman’s script had been chosen.

After she left, Yan Lingling walked out from the next meeting room, looked at her back and muttered, "Yan Yuling, this is just a small punishment for humiliating me that day!"

In the conference room, a senior screenwriter frowned and asked, "Director Wen, why was this script not selected? The story is well written and the plot is very fresh. I believe it will definitely cause a sensation after it is broadcast."

"Teacher Lin, although the plot is fresh, the story lacks depth and the characters are shallow. Audiences want to see drama, revenge, and conflict. Stories about sweet fated love are no longer popular. If we choose this script, we will lose money," Director Wen said.

"It may not be a popular genre, but the story plot progresses smoothly and the transition from teenage years to adulthood isn’t abrupt. The writer clearly laid a solid foundation for the characters to grow as the story progresses. I didn’t see the lack of depth in the story and characters at all," Teacher Lin frowned deeper.

"Unless you have made the decision before the meeting, I don’t see any reason for us to reject this good script," Teacher Lin added meaningfully.

When everyone heard her words, they all looked at Director Wen, waiting for his responses.

Noticing their gazes, Director Wen smiled and said, "Teacher Lin, I know you are very artistically talented. But our company is not a social organization. Although we value a good script, we also need to ensure that this script can bring benefits to our company."

"As marketing director, my job is to make sure the script we choose brings in revenue. If you insist on choosing that script, can you guarantee that the drama will be successful?" he added with a sneer.

Teacher Lin frowned when she heard what he said. While she was confident the script would make a good drama, she wasn’t sure it would generate revenue for the company. After all, not to mention drama, most arthouse films fail to achieve box office success.

Seeing her silence, Director Wen smiled and said, "Since there are no objections, let’s continue discussing which project to prioritize."

While everyone was arguing about the project, Yan Yuling walked to the nearest bus stop. Despite the rejection, she did not lose heart and took out her phone.

She looked at her watch and chose to send a message instead of calling Gu Jianci.

[ Jianci, I’m on my way to the hospital. You may not be used to the food in the cafeteria. Do you want me to bring you something? ]

Not long after she sent out the message, she received a reply.

[ Dr. Gu : Have you eaten lunch?

Misty Rain: Not yet.

Dr. Gu: Then, let’s have a meal together. I haven’t eaten either.

Misty Rain: Alright.

Dr. Gu: Call me when you arrive. ]

After closing the chat box, Yan Yuling saw the bus coming and kept her phone in her bag.

Meanwhile in the First Hospital, Yan Yunci was sitting in the VIP ward, looking at Lin Hao who was lying on the bed with a pale face. After lunch, her grandfather took her to the hospital to announce the dissolution of her marriage.

That day, when she saw Lin Hao vomiting blood, she thought she was going to be a widow on the first day of her marriage. Luckily, this man had a tough life and he made it through. It would be too embarrassing if he died because of his lover’s words.

While she was lost in thought, Madam Lin was observing her from head to toe. When she saw Yan Yunci that day, she thought she was a fat and ugly woman. Therefore, although Lin Xiao told her that her family background was good and could help their company, Madam Lin was not satisfied with the marriage.

But when she saw her again today, she looked nothing like that fat and ugly woman. Although she is more plump than the other pampered daughters in the circle, she has a great figure.

The areas that should be thin are slimmer, and the areas that should be plump are fuller. She even has a slim waist and pert hips. Judging from its shape, she could easily conceive and give birth to a child.

When Madam Lin was observing Yan Yunci, Lin Hao’s eyes also fell on her. He always thought Yan Lingling was the sexiest woman he had ever seen. This is why he has pursued her for so many years. He prefers sexy, mature women to innocent, elegant ladies.

Today, he was shocked to see how beautiful his nominal wife was. Maybe she dressed like an ugly woman on purpose that day to make her fiancé hate her.

Now that she married the wrong person, she no longer tried to hide her great figure and beautiful face. Is it because she fell for him?

If he knew she was so beautiful, he would never refuse his brother’s suggestion and treat her better that day. Fortunately, he did not insist on going against his brother. Otherwise, it would be his brother who got this beauty.

When Lin Hao and his mother’s eyes fell on Yan Yunci, Grandpa Yan looked at them sharply.

Although he is no longer involved in business and politics, he was once a general who went on the battlefield and was the founder of Huiyun Group. With just one look, he could guess what they were thinking and planning.

After a long silence, there was a knock on the door, and a man in a dark blue suit walked in with long legs, followed by his assistant.
