Chapter 107 Finding a Purpose in Life
She looked at the man's photo, her eyes showing approval of his good looks, but even more so, a love for money. It was as if she could already see a lot of money beckoning to her and flying towards her.
Her eyes glazed over as she imagined herself sitting amidst piles of money, and she couldn't help but chuckle.
That laugh startled him.
Coming to his senses, he touched the corner of his mouth, found no saliva, and awkwardly put it down.
With the direction determined, the next step is to figure out how to write it.
In novels featuring domineering CEOs, the male and female protagonists, as the central figures, need to have well-developed personalities, backgrounds, and other aspects. Ideally, they should have a strong sense of contrast and complementarity, coupled with exciting and dramatic plots, in order to capture the reader's attention.
Shen Xuewei's fingers landed on the keyboard, slowly typing out the settings for the two of them.
Male lead: Leng Chumo.
He is noble and handsome in appearance, but cold and unapproachable, like an iceberg that is hard to melt.
His mother was the heiress of a conglomerate, and his father was a European nobleman. Their families arranged a marriage, and he was born.
However, since the marriage was arranged by their families and not a voluntary union, and each of them had someone they loved, the family atmosphere became strained.
Leng Chumo grew up in this cold and strange family. Coupled with his grandfather's strict teaching and demanding requirements since childhood, he developed a cold and unapproachable personality.
After returning from studying at a top overseas university at the age of eighteen, he started working for the company.
After becoming familiar with the company, he demonstrated his abilities and made significant contributions with his unique insights and skills.
This prompted the president's maternal grandfather to delegate authority and entrust him with the management of the group.
Under his leadership, the group developed rapidly, elevating its strength to a new level, and he became a prominent figure whom everyone vied to curry favor with.
Female lead: Wen Qingxiao.
With her pure and charming appearance, lively and cheerful personality, and optimistic and positive attitude, she is loved by her friends and elders like a sunflower.
Wen Qingxiao's parents ran a small restaurant and lived a warm and happy life. They gave all their love to her and did everything they could to give her the best of everything.
Under their influence, Wen Qingxiao was an optimist from a young age, developing a lively and generous personality.
She studied diligently and made great progress, and was admitted to a top-tier university in China through her own efforts.
During my university years, I frequently received scholarships and was a source of pride for my parents.
The year she graduated from university, she overcame numerous challenges and defeated nearly a hundred competitors to successfully secure an offer from Bofan Group, becoming one of Leng Chumo's secretaries.
As a newbie just starting out in the workplace, she occasionally makes mistakes that lead to embarrassing situations and result in being scolded by Leng Chumo.
While feeling wronged, Wen Qingxiao also adjusted her shortcomings, made rapid progress, and learned a lot.
At first, Leng Chumo was indifferent and ruthless, but he was gradually attracted to her, who was like a little sun. He unknowingly fell deeply in love with her and could not extricate himself.
Wen Qingxiao, who was initially afraid of him, gradually let down her guard as she felt his care and help.
As she wrote this part of the outline, Shen Xuewei grinned and gave herself a thumbs up.
And then next...
She smiled and continued typing lines of text on the keyboard, adding all sorts of melodramatic plots.
A domineering CEO spends a fortune at an auction to buy a sapphire necklace for his beloved woman, only to suddenly find out that a fiancée has appeared.
Upon learning that he had a fiancée, Wen Qingxiao was unwilling to interfere in their relationship.
What followed was a chase, and after resolving the misunderstanding with his fiancée, just as their relationship was about to improve, Wen Qingxiao's childhood sweetheart returned to China.
Leng Chumo saw the two talking intimately and misunderstood again.
Then new characters are constantly added, further fueling the fire in their relationship.
Add some angst in the middle, like amnesia, car accidents, kidnapping... and a little bit of erotica...
After overcoming countless difficulties, the two finally tied the knot, received everyone's blessings, and entered the sacred hall of marriage.
Shen Xuewei looked at the outline she had already written and was full of enthusiasm.
After relaxing, the urge to urinate came.
After getting up to use the restroom, she quickly sat back down at the computer and, following the ideas and outline in her mind, began writing the opening paragraph.
After finishing the first three chapters, I received a notification on QQ.
She opened QQ and saw that it was her editor, Yun Li, who had sent her a message.
Yunli: Okay, I've received it!
Yunli: You were really fast this time! I thought you wouldn't send it to me until after school started. I was even thinking of giving you a good nudge on QQ in a few days!
Yunli: Keep up this pace next time, and I won't have to rush you anymore. I've finished reading your draft; it's fine, no need for revisions, it's perfect as it is. Although the male and female leads had misunderstandings and missed opportunities, they ultimately ended up together perfectly.
Yunli: The royalties will be transferred to your bank card after the serialization starts next month. It's still the same account as before, right?
Shen Xuewei sighed and smiled.
It's not that she's slow; her speed is exceptionally good.
The only problem is the difficult conditions; there's a lack of equipment and time, which is why it's been delayed again and again.
During the years she wrote novels, she got to know several editors, but now she is in the most frequent contact with Yun Li and they have the best relationship.
She has submitted most of her recent novels to Yun Li, and has not submitted them to any other editors.
The answer is that Yun Li has the backing of a powerful magazine, pays high prices, is generous, and the two get along well, so Shen Xuewei is happy to submit her articles to her.
Become a rich woman soon: I just happened to be out with my uncle, and there's a computer nearby, so I'll finish writing this and send it to you.
Become a rich woman soon: Yes, just send it to my old bank card.
She glanced at the novel she had just written three chapters of. Although she didn't plan to submit it so soon, she still wanted Yun Li to take a look at how it was written.
Become a rich woman soon: I have a novel here, and I've only written the first few chapters. Could you please take a look at it for me? Please feel free to point out any shortcomings.
As Yun Li sat in front of the computer, the thought of a young child with such a QQ nickname on the other end made her want to laugh.
Kids these days, they find their life goals so quickly at such a young age...
Seeing that Shen Xuewei had sent another file, she clicked to receive it and opened it.
After reading the three chapters that were sent to her, the faint smile on her face disappeared without her noticing. She kept scrolling the mouse back and forth, but there were no more chapters or content.
She first sent an angry emoji, then furiously typed away on the keyboard.
Yun Li: You have the nerve to send me only three chapters? I finished reading them in less than a minute and now I want to read the rest. You decide what to do!
Yunli: You have one minute to send it over, hurry up!
After her antics, she read through the message Shen Xuewei had sent her again, her admiration growing stronger.
She knew she hadn't misjudged the person; although he was young, his writing was incredibly talented and he was making great progress.
If I can persevere in this field in the future, I will definitely make a name for myself and may even become one of the leading authors in this field.
But... she sighed softly, with a hint of regret.
