Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife

Since there was nothing else to do after the makeup photoshoot for the drama, Ran Xueyi and her team went back to her room to discuss some countermeasures against the crew.

As they got into the elevator, they never expected to see Producer Luo, who also wanted to get inside the lift.

Seeing the face of Producer Luo, Zhao Fei's face turned dark and she made a snappy comment in front of Producer Luo.

"Hmph! I think my eyes were blind previously. I saw someone who looked righteous but turns out it's just another green tea!"

Producer Luo who just pressed his floor level heard this and frowned. Though the other person didn't drop anyone's name, he couldn't shake the feeling that this comment was somehow pointed at him.

However, he didn't know what he did to make the other say this to him.

"Miss Ran, you're done with the photoshoot?" As the producer of the drama, he knew that this morning should have been Ran Xueyi's turn for a photoshoot. It should have ended a long time ago and yet, Ran Xueyi and her group returned a bit laters o he couldn't help but ask.

Ran Xueyi was about to answer, but Zhao Fei was faster to respond.

"She's done taking them a long time ago already! We're just held back by some people's malicious actions of stealing the spotlights!"

Hearing her, Producer Luo's eyes turned sharper. "What do you mean?"

"Aren't you clear about what I am saying since you're the producer?" Zhao Fei scoffed coldly at Producer Luo's face.

Producer Luo was even more doubtful and dumbfounded. Yes, he is the producer of the drama, but he couldn't understand where their conversation was going.

The elevator came up quickly and by the time Producer Luo was even more curious to know what Zhao Fei was talking about and was about to inquire, the elevator made a 'ding!' sound, indicating that they have arrived on their desired floor.

Seeing that, Ran Xueyi waited for the door to open before stepping out with Zhao Fei and Feng Huai following her. But before she could completely step out of the elevator, when she passed by Producer Luo, she left a sentence that made Producer Luo unhappy and felt anger.

"Producer Luo, I sent something to you earlier. Have you seen it?"

Ran Xueyi didn't wait for his reply and already turned her back to him.

Her words kept running in his mind and when he returned to his room which was located just a floor above Ran Xueyi's floor, he grabbed his phone and saw that Ran Xueyi indeed sent something to him. A few minutes later, he called Chun Cai's number.

It took a while for it to be connected and once it did, Producer Luo heard a few people mumbling in the background.

Producer Luo asked, "Where are you?"

Scriptwriter Chun replied in a normal tone as if nothing happened. At first he was slightly afraid upon receiving Producer Luo's call, but he calmed down again after seeing Director Zheng sitting before him and smiling.

"Producer Luo, I'm at the set right now. What's wrong?"

"I heard the script has been changed. What are you doing?!" Producer Luo exclaimed loudly.

Scriptwriter Chun's heart skipped a beat. He stammered for a while before saying, "Producer Luo, we already discussed this. We think that the script is a bit too mediocre and decided to change some things to suit the current trends. Besides, these changes aren't a lot, we only deleted and added a few things. Don't worry too much about it, you trust my ability as the scriptwriter, right?"

Producer Luo did trust Scriptwriter Chun's talent in writing his scripts. Chun Cai was the person he found for the drama to write the script because he was amazed after reading his previous scripts and Chun Cai was even awarded as the New Scriptwriter of the year, two years ago and without a doubt, he had the skill to back his words.

Deleting and adding scenes in the script was not unusual. On the contrary, most movies and television dramas would change a few things to meet the audience's tastes. As a producer, Luo Huan also did this before to ensure the quality of the drama.

"However, why didn't you inform me before you made any changes to the script? I am the producer and don't I have the right to know?"

Scriptwriter Chun was relieved that Producer Luo's angry tone lessened a bit. He replied, "Of course, I know. I was just going to tell you about this last night, but your phone was turned off and you weren't in your room. So, I just did it anyway since the filming will officially start soon and delaying it will only waste our time."

"Don't worry too much about it, Producer Luo. I know what I'm doing and I only refined the script. I'm sure during the Golden Leaf Awards, the drama will receive the Best Script Award and you will get the Producer of the Year!"

Chun Cai was quite proud of his lies. He never intended to tell Producer Luo that the scenes he changed were all the scenes of the female lead and that he made no changes on the other characters.

Last night, he received a call telling him to change the script and delete most of the scenes of the female lead. At first, Chun Cai was reluctant to do this since it was too much work on him and he would probably have to sacrifice his sleep if he did that. Besides, there was also the fear of being scolded and fired by Producer Luo if he was found out.

However, the caller offered him a million yuan if he succeeded to delete the scenes of the female lead and add more scenes of the other characters. Chun Cai would be lying if he said that he wasn't blinded by the money, but he still hesitated for a bit until Director Zheng called him out for a drink.

When Chun Cai arrived at the club that Director Zheng told him to go, he didn't only see Director Zheng, Gu Jiao and the supporting character, Cheng Han, was also there.

After a few drinks, Chun Cai found out that it was Gu Jiao who wanted the script to be changed. She previously auditioned for the female lead role, but she failed to get it so she ended up taking the second female lead role. Unsatisfied with this result, Gu Jiao already planned out something to block the success of the actress who would play the female lead role. And in order to do that, she contacted her sugar daddy, who was also a big investor of the drama < A Thousand Lotus >

When Chun Cai heard this, he was extremely shocked. This was the first time that Gu Jiao personally admitted that she had a big investor behind her.

After hearing that there was a big investor of the drama who allowed the change of the script, Chun Cai's hesitation and fear disappeared. He agreed to their offer and accepted the one million yuan from Gu Jiao. As for the supporting character, Cheng Han, he was there to also ask Chun Cai to add more scenes for him. He offered his own body for a night to Chun Cai, who had a different sexual orientation.

Chun Cai agreed immediately and accepted all the gains he would receive from them. Anyway, even if Producer Luo said something after finding out the truth, he wouldn't go against the wishes of the big investor. They fund the drama and without the investors, the budget for making the film will be too little and looking for a new investor would take a lot of time.

"What did he say?" Director Zheng, who sat across from Scriptwriter Chun, asked him as soon as he saw the latter finished the call.

Scriptwriter Chun curved his lips upward and raised his thumb up, "He said to tell him if I make another change in the script so we can discuss it. He probably bought my lies."

"Tsk... He really believes that he'll become the Producer of the Year?" Director Zheng took a long drag from his cigarette and laughed. "In his dreams!"

Back inside Producer Luo's hotel room, Luo Huan was looking down on his phone. The screen was still showing Scriptwriter Chun's name and number and the duration of their call. But not a second later, the screen changed into a white page with black words - it was the new script.

What Chun Cai and Director Zheng didn't know was that before Producer Luo even called Chun Cai, he saw the message that Ran Xueyi sent to him, it was the new script she received this morning.

At first, he couldn't believe it. However, the truth was backed with indisputable evidence. Besides, Chun Cai's words during their call was like treating him like a buffoon.

If he hadn't seen Ran Xueyi's message, he would have already believed their words and been treated like a fool!

As he was thinking of this, his phone began to ring and when he looked down, it was Ran Xueyi's name written on the phone screen.
