Scarlet and Rose publications CEO office

Li wei: Meizhen the tabloids are all about you. Our company is having a really hard time,the PR team cannot suppress it anymore they kept it under wraps for the last six months. Are you really lacking inspiration?Do you want to travel with me and get some ideas or get inspired by art or something?.

Meizhen: From the last 8 months you have been sending me to art museums and historical places and so on. I have been travelling non stop but what can i do, am unable to think of anything new or good to write as of now. Its like am just out of ideas. And also if you travel with me who will take care of our company.

Li wei: Yeah you are right I should handle the company well, with this matter out our company stocks are fluctuating although its not very low but still its less than our margin. It would be better if you could release a new book soon to stabilize the situation.

Meizhen: The others in our company are releasing their work frequently why is it that our stocks are not reaching our desired margin?

Li wei: Yes, the others are doing a brilliant job with their works our little yue got the best novice writer award this year. Her second book will be released next month. But, the reason our stocks are fluctuating is because you are the face of our company,you know that we only had you until the first year of our company. Later on others came along as our company started to use your works in movies and merchandising. Also, you won a lot of awards at that time so everyone knew our company based on you. We still are not able to change that image of our company. Am trying to recruit many new authors but its very hard to find people with talent and also we will be conducting a few writing contests in the next 3 months.

Meizhen: Little yue did a good job, I will get her a congratulatory gift and will praise her later when i meet her. Hire a PR team from the outside and change our company image ,my personal problem should not affect the company. The company is growing and others will get jealous or hate me if am the only face for representing the company.

Li wei: I was thinking about something similar. Meizhen can i advice you something if you will not get angry?

Meizhen: Go on and be quick, I had to rush from Italy to get here because of the news. I came here directly from the airport and am lacking sleep.

Li wei: I know,I will arrange someone to drop you at your condo. Meizhen I have known you for very long, your stories are all supernatural,horrors or thrillers why dont you change the genre and try to write a romance fiction.

Mei zhen: Li wei,I know that you want me to write a book soon but you know that i hate romance and anything related to that. Love stories are boring and overrated. If you dont have anything to say I will be leaving.

Li wei: Your ride will be at the back entrance because the front entrance is flooded with reporters.

Mei zhen: Bye. I will call you when i get home.

After taking the elevator Mei zhen leaves from the back door with her luggage in tow to see a black car waiting for her. She gets in the car and falls in a daze as she sees the skyscrappers on her way home. "Life has its ups and downs",Grandma Su used to tell this all the time but who knew that its tough to handle. When you are having too many good things you might lose focus on many important things and when you are in troughs its hard to endure day to day life. But thats what life is all about, we can never be in the same medium.

Just when Mei zhen was thinking how to handle the equation of life someone interrupted her thoughts, she came out of her world and saw that she had already arrived at her high rise condo apartment. This was a 30 floor building with each floor having only one unit which can be only entered by a keycard to only your own floor,there were 4 Keycards to each floor. Since, Mei zhen is a woman and lives alone ,she had to keep her safety and privacy in check so she spent a lot on purchasing this condo ,while searching for a good neighbourhood with less traffic sounds. The location of her house is a little far from the city center but it was close to her publishing company and also she has a home office and works from home so it didnt matter to her that she was in city outskirts. This was community with 5 buildings with similar structures,the security was top notch and there were assigned helpers for each floor who will stay in the nearby areas and can help you with cooking,laundry and keeping the house clean.there were some rich people and many B-list and C-list celebrities living here. If someone wants to visit you or you get any deliveries the security will call the intercom and you can only ask the security to receive the guests or deliveries and send them to your floor or you can go pick them yourself.

Mei zhen lived on the 28th floor,the condo had a huge living room with a balcony, the living room connected to dining hall and there was an open kitchen which can be closed when you cook smelly food so as not to contaminate the whole condo with smelly air. the kitchen was connected to a small balcony. There were a total of 4 rooms with one being a master bedroom , study and 2 guest rooms. There 3 bathrooms one in hall, one in master bedroom and one connected to the 2 guestrooms. The master bedroom had a huge closet which is connected to the master bathroom, you can either enter from closet or the master bedroom. The condo had all the necessities home appliances,furniture etc.

Meizhen entered the condo using a finger print and eye scanner and saw that her whole condo was a little dusty. Her helper was called Wen xinyi, she was a very naive woman in her early 40's with a loving family blessed with a boy and a girl who were still in high school who were good at studying. Meizhen usually called her Aunty Wen ,she liked Aunty Wen because of her good nature but she didnt want to allow anyone inside her house when she was not home ,so she asked her not to come and clean the house while she was gone .Even if Aunty Wen wanted to come and clean she didnt have the keycard since Meizhen had all 4keycards in her possession. Its not like Mei zhen didnt trust Aunty Wen but she didnt want anyone else to have access to her home.

Meizhen brought the luggage inside and gave a text to Li wei , had some water and started unpacking her luggage and called Aunty Wen to clean the house and make some dinner. Even though she was very tired she couldnt just sleep because she a bit of neat freak and had a little OCD. Just as she was done unpacking her luggage Aunty Wen rang the bell. Meizhen greeted Aunty Wen who came with a few fruits and vegetables as well as some groceries because Meizhen was travelling a bit so they didnt see each other that often,she gave Aunty Wen a tight hug after seeing the latters thoughtfullness,they had a little chat and then Aunty Wen went to clean the house and cook for Meizhen. Meizhen went to her room to take a shower, she came out in her pajamas to see that Aunty Wen had cooked some healthy and light recipes. Aunty Wen left the house as she was done with her work. Meizhen had dinner and did the dishes and went to sleep.
