The only SSSS-level fertility constitution in the entire interstellar space

Xie Linyu asked the question very softly, even with a hint of nonchalant amusement, but there was no warmth in the depths of his blue eyes.

The air seemed to freeze for a moment.

Director He Shang's smile froze slightly. Assistant Zhang Tong subconsciously glanced at Xie Linyu, then quickly looked at Lu Yao.

Qinghe frowned slightly and looked at Lu Yao with concern.

Lu Yao's heart skipped a beat. She met Xie Linyu's gaze and said, "Mr. Xie, I don't quite understand what you mean. This is just a fictional story. The core is the characters' growth and emotional bonds. How can it be about 'redemption'?"

"Is that so?" Xie Linyu changed his posture, one hand supporting his chin, while the other hand continued to rhythmically tap the table, making a soft "tap, tap" sound, which seemed somewhat abrupt in the quiet conference room.

"I thought you wanted to use this story to convey the idea of ​​how to imprison men and make them subservient to women." He spoke slowly but with a hint of sarcasm, "and thus achieve a certain degree of redemption for women. Perhaps you think this is also a kind of redemption for men?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yao did not immediately refute it, but instead pondered the structure of her story.

The core of her novel "Temptation of the Wife" is that the female protagonist transmigrates to a beastman world where women are superior to men and becomes a character with a low genetic level but hidden talents. Influenced by the worldview, the female protagonist has five beast husbands with different personalities and beast forms, all of whom were taken from the original owner of the female protagonist's body.

However, the original owner did not treat them kindly and often abused them, causing these beastmen to be covered in wounds and suffer great physical and mental damage.

The female protagonist, who had traveled through time, felt sorry for them when she saw this scene and treated their injuries, but these beastmen remained wary of her.

Because of her special healing abilities, the female protagonist was invited to work at the research institute, where she was mainly tasked with treating mental disorders that had existed in men for hundreds of years.

Using her talent and gentle nature, she gradually changed how those around her perceived her. The beastmen's attitudes towards her also began to change, and because of her appearance, a disease that had plagued males for hundreds of years was cured...

She felt that her story's overall structure did not present the problems Xie Linyu had mentioned.

And it was finally confirmed that this guy was just looking for trouble.

She didn't know how she had offended this guy, but she always felt that he seemed to be full of malice towards her.

After confirming that the problem wasn't with her own story, Lu Yao raised an eyebrow and looked at the other person: "Who hurt you, so you can't accept this kind of story?"

The atmosphere fell silent again. Xie Linyu's smile froze for a moment before finally crumbling.

The office was so quiet you could hear each other breathing.

He Shang, who was standing to the side, immediately sensed something was wrong. Lu Yao's words had almost hit Xie Linyu's sore spot.

Outsiders may not know, but within Xingwen Entertainment, it's no secret that Xie Linyu was rejected by a potential match when he was 18.

It was from that time on that Xie Linyu began to resist matching, preferring to pay the penalty for breach of contract rather than accept matching anymore.

To put it simply, Xie Linyu's young heart was indeed hurt.

So now, he's actually a bit misogynistic.

"Smack."

A sudden, soft sound broke the almost frozen atmosphere.

Xie Linyu stopped his fingertips on the table. The sharp-looking silver pinky ring tapped against the clean surface, leaving a very faint white mark.

The smile on his face vanished, and his beautiful blue eyes stared at Lu Yao, his emotions churning within.

"Miss Lu," he said slowly, his voice even lower than before, "don't let your imagination run wild."

He Shang quickly stood up, his professional smile almost faltering: "Thank you, Mr. Xie, Ms. Lu. Today we're mainly discussing the script's direction; these are just side topics..."

"An aside?" Xie Linyu interrupted him, his gaze remaining fixed on Lu Yao's face. "Director He, I think that's precisely the problem. How can an author who casually speculates about male psychology accurately portray the inner world of the male protagonist? Especially..."

He paused, the mocking smile widening. "Those who are 'robbed' and 'abused,' instead of staying away, are ultimately 'healed' and 'tamed' by the very people who hurt them. Miss Lu, do you have a hatred of men?"

Lu Yao was so angry at his twisted words that she almost laughed.

"I hate men? Aren't you just picking a fight on purpose? I could also say you hate women! If you're so against this project, then don't act in it! Who asked you to act? If you can't stand it, then leave! Seriously!"

"Gentlemen, please calm down. I think Ms. Lu's work is a good one, and I understand the underlying message. It's not like what you said, Mr. Xie. Perhaps the story is still in its early stages and not yet fully developed. The beginnings do seem a bit... well, let's wait and see, Ms. Lu. The later parts will definitely not be like the beginning. Or perhaps we could develop the script and the novel simultaneously?"

He Shang tried his best to quell the situation, never expecting that the seminar would fail so badly before it even began.

He now even regrets inviting Xie Linyu to play an important role in it.

He just didn't expect Xie Linyu to suddenly lose control. In the past, even if he didn't like women, he wouldn't take the initiative to get close to them, and he was rarely this rebellious.

He really wanted to know what was going on today. Had this person taken the wrong medicine? Why was he being so aggressive towards Lu Yao?

pat.

Xie Linyu stood up and looked down at Lu Yao.

His 1.91-meter height cast an oppressive shadow under the conference room's overhead lights, completely enveloping Lu Yao.

"Can you honestly say you've never fantasized about making men submit to you?"

Lu Yao couldn't help but roll her eyes: "If you're sick, go get treated!"

"I'll be watching you!" Xie Linyu turned around and sat back down, childishly pointing to his eyes and then to Lu Yao, the meaning of which was self-evident.

In her heart, Lu Yao firmly labeled him as "sick".

Fortunately, Xie Linyu didn't speak again in the latter half of the day, and the seminar was able to continue. However, it seemed that Xie Linyu's eyes were glued to Lu Yao.

It was as if they were genuinely trying to glean something from her.

Xie Linyu only looked away after Lu Yao got up and left, a complex emotion flickering in his eyes.

When Lu Yao and Qing He returned after He Shang left, they saw him sitting there in a daze.

Unable to resist asking, "Actor Xie, are you in a bad mood today?"

Xie Linyu looked up at him, understanding what he meant, and stood up, saying, "I'm sorry, I'll be more careful in the future. Please don't call me for the next seminar."

In fact, he couldn't understand why seeing Lu Yao made him feel particularly annoyed.

Was it because Lu Yao's gaze towards him lacked enthusiasm and excitement, displaying only calm indifference?
