Chapter 454: Baby’s Breath
Ye Zhiyun was slowly getting better. She had quickly promoted Wen Yajun to be the official screenwriter and had also put Wen Yajun’s Love Has No Distance on the agenda, preparing to start filming. At the same time, Wen Yajun had given her a movie script, saying it was a first draft. It was a story about a couple who had to start a long-distance relationship after graduating from university because they had to go back to their respective hometowns for work. Although there were constant twists and turns in the middle, in the end, they had gotten married and had children. It was a sweet love story. The movie was called I Just Want to Be With You. Although it was just a first draft, Ye Zhiyun felt it was very good.
“You’ve just written a TV series script. How did you manage to squeeze out a movie script so quickly? That’s too fast.”
“Ah, this…”
Wen Yajun scratched her head, not knowing how to answer. She couldn’t just say that it was written by Shion-sensei, right? That person was a notorious tentacle monster in the industry.
But it was really enviable for Boss Ye to have such a good girlfriend, and to have her secretly write a script for her. If it had been Wen Yajun, she would definitely not have done it.
And this first draft of the script was a free gift from Yu Linna to Wen Yajun. Her only request was that Ye Zhiyun had to be the director.
As a screenwriter, to have been given a script twice, Wen Yajun’s self-esteem was a little hurt. She decided to work hard to improve herself, to make herself worthy of the identity of a screenwriter.
Anyway, Yu Linna had only given her the original plan. Most of the story was still written by her. In this way, Wen Yajun was also a little relieved.
“Boss, don’t look at me like this. Actually, I’m very capable. Although this is just a first draft, I hope it can be filmed. It would be best if the boss is the director.”
“Of course this script has to be filmed, but why do you have to have me as the director?”
“If it’s not the boss who is the director, then I won’t give you this script.”
“Your request is really a bit strange. But I’ve agreed. Anyway, the company doesn’t have any other directors for the time being!”
And so, the TV series Love Has No Distance and the movie I Just Want to Be With You were both put on the agenda, preparing to start filming. The director and screenwriter were both Ye Zhiyun and Wen Yajun.
Jiaying Company was also slowly walking out of its harsh winter at this time.
…
After the trip to Hong Kong was over, Yu Linna went to a flower shop and bought a bouquet of flowers, had it wrapped, and asked the shop assistant to help send it out.
“You’re buying baby’s breath? Are you sending it to her?”
Yu Xiayue asked.
“Yes. This flower, I want to send it to her. But I want to send it to her anonymously.”
“Anonymously?”
“Mmm, just say it was sent to her by a fan. That person will surely be very surprised. She must be wondering when she got a fan.”
Yu Linna said with a smile. When she talked about her lover, she was always smiling very happily. They had clearly had such a big fight, yet she had still specially bought flowers to send to her, and had even sent them secretly. Her heart should still be with her, so she had specially gone to buy flowers.
“The flower language of baby’s breath is longing, sincere love, purity, and romance. It represents the love for a lover. I like you so much. I hope to spend a wonderful life with you hand in hand. It’s a wonder you thought of sending this.”
To be honest, Yu Xiayue was very surprised, and also a little envious.
For a gift, Yu Linna was actually so meticulous. Anyone would feel very happy.
Baby’s breath was really a very romantic gift. Although sending roses was also quite good, roses represented passion and ardent love. In their current situation, it was clear that baby’s breath was more suitable.
“Sister Yue, help me hold this for a bit. I’ll go and pay.”
“Mmm, okay.”
Holding the wrapped flowers, Yu Xiayue was thinking, This child is really very attentive to her. If this child was not treated well, she would absolutely not forgive Yu Linna’s partner.
Yu Linna sent out the wrapped flowers and had a special flower delivery person send them to Ye Zhiyun’s company.
This day, someone had sent flowers to the entrance of Jiaying Company, saying they were for Ye Zhiyun. Ye Zhiyun had signed for the flowers and had found that they were baby’s breath. The meaning of this flower was romance, longing, purity, and true love. Ye Zhiyun didn’t know who had sent them. She looked at the letter. The person who had sent the flowers was an anonymous fan. On the letter, there was only one sentence: “Loving you to the fullest, I hope you will get better and better, your fan leaves.”
My fan?
Ye Zhiyun’s mind was full of doubts. She, a flop director, and a director of bad films at that, actually had a fan. This was really strange.
But…
So happy.
So I still have someone who supports me. With this thought, Ye Zhiyun accepted the flowers. She really felt very happy.
This flower, she had to keep it well. This was the first gift she had received from a fan. She had to keep it well. Although Ye Zhiyun was a great beauty and had received many gifts and flowers when she was in school, after she had come out to society to start a business and be a director, not many people had given her gifts, and she had no fans or anything. Most people felt that she was a woman with only an empty shell.
But now, she was different. She had a gift.
It was just that no matter how Ye Zhiyun thought about it, she would never have thought that this flower was not sent to her by a fan, but by Yu Linna. This matter, she did not know, and no one knew. Only Yu Linna knew.
When Dai Wenqian saw this bouquet of flowers, she was also taken aback, thinking, This Ye Zhiyun also has a fan. It’s really not scientific. It was just that this flower was a little like a gift for a lover. Could it be that…
Dai Wenqian shook her head, shaking away those strange thoughts in her head.
I must be overthinking it. The probability of this kind of thing happening is too small, like buying a lottery ticket. It should be impossible.
And after Yu Linna had sent out her flowers, she naturally did not pay attention to Ye Zhiyun’s matter. She just needed to know that the flowers had been delivered. After that, she planned to send flowers once in a while, just as a fan.
As for why she didn’t take the initiative to talk to Ye Zhiyun and make up with her, it could only be said that Yu Linna herself also felt awkward. She didn’t know what expression to use to face Ye Zhiyun. After all, they were still arguing now. In the past, when they argued, it was always Yu Linna who was the first to bow her head and admit her mistake. But this time, it was not a question of who was right or wrong. Yu Linna also didn’t know how to talk to Ye Zhiyun.
This had been dragged on for a long time.
During this period of time, Yu Linna’s career was slowly rising. Her novels and scripts were all not bad. The Smile of the Rose had also been finished and was about to be released. Ace Gambler had been renamed by her to Beast Game, officially localizing this IP from Japan. She believed that she could finish the first draft of the script soon. And the sales of Dawn Assassin were also very good. Zixuan and the Paper Airplane was nearing its end. In this way, Yu Linna’s golden brand was thus established. The industry all knew that Yu Linna was a very outstanding novelist, and at the same time, a scriptwriter. She could not only write novels, but also write scripts.
Many companies had extended an olive branch to her, asking her to write scripts. Her price had also been raised to eight million. As a scriptwriter who was not yet very experienced, her price was really quite high. But with the name Shion-sensei attached, she did indeed have this value.
When Yu Linna returned to Guangnan, Qian Jiaxuan immediately found her and asked her out for coffee, saying it was to talk about work. Yu Linna suddenly remembered that ever since her former editor, Chen Xi, had passed away, she had not had coffee and talked about work with her current editor, Qian Jiaxuan, in a coffee shop.
“Shion-sensei, I’ve read the content of the fourth volume. It’s very good! It’s simply a world-class masterpiece! I dare say there is no more perfect story than this. You will soon become the pillar of our Wenqing!”
“Thank you…”
“Shion-sensei, is Zixuan and the Paper Airplane really going to end? Can’t you continue to serialize it?”
“No.”
“Dammit! It’s such a good novel!”
“…”
Qian Jiaxuan’s personality was completely different from Chen Xi’s. How should she put it? Yu Linna was a little unable to cope.
“By the way, Shion-sensei, I hear you’ve been skipping class recently to go on a trip with the big star An Xiayue. The people online are all commenting. Don’t you plan to respond?”
It was only when Qian Jiaxuan mentioned this matter that Yu Linna remembered that she had been on the hot search recently. Because she had been photographed going out to play with An Xiayue, everyone had said that she had skipped class to go out and play, and was not doing her work. As a university student, she should not have.
With this matter came the theory of Yu Linna’s mixed-race. The haters online were again using this matter to talk, saying that Yu Linna was a foreigner, and that foreign schools were relatively free and lax, so she dared to ignore the classroom. They also said that this person was just holding a Chinese nationality, but actually had a foreigner’s face, and was not worthy of being called a Chinese person. Of course, such remarks were soon flamed by people until their mothers didn’t even recognize them.
“I’m not that bored to be dealing with silly netizens every day. Besides, I’ve asked for leave. And I don’t go to class because I already know the content of the class. I don’t think I’ve done anything wrong.”
What else could Qian Jiaxuan say? She could only say, Shion-sensei is awesome. I will always like Shion-sensei.
“Sister Qian, are you just here to talk about work this time?”
“Yes. Before, when Sister Chen was in charge of you, she seemed to like to take you to a coffee shop to talk. I have to be like that too!”
“Sister Qian, let me say this first. You don’t have to be like Sister Chen. You are you, and Sister Chen is Sister Chen. There’s no need at all.”
Qian Jiaxuan was still completely imitating Chen Xi’s previous style of doing things, not at all thinking that they were completely opposite people.
“Shion-sensei, if you don’t like coffee shops, then let’s go to my house. You came to my house last time. My mom likes you very much. If you go this time, my mom will prepare delicious food to entertain you.”
“That’s not necessary. Compared to that, let’s just talk about work. I plan to arrange some new characters in the next volume. I’ll tell you about it in advance.”
“Mmm!”
Qian Jiaxuan was clearly the editor, so why was she still like a junior in front of Yu Linna?
This point, Yu Linna also didn’t understand. Perhaps when this person was an editor, the fact that Yu Linna and Zhao Yuyan were both great authors had made her very nervous.
“Sister Qian, since we’re talking about work, why don’t you also do a good job with Sister Yuyan’s work? You haven’t rushed her manuscript yet, have you?”
“This, I’m a little unable to cope with Air-sensei. She doesn’t seem to like me very much…”
“You are her editor. How can it be okay if you’re not proactive?”
“Wuwuwu, alright then.”
The coffee shop was constantly full of customers. On the TV, news about the recently rising director, Ye Zhiyun, was being broadcast. She had announced to the outside world that she would be starting a TV series and a movie project, to be completed in the second half of the year. And Yu Linna casually glanced at it, smiled faintly, and then acted as if nothing had happened.
