Top floor of Fire Moth Elite Star Entertainment Company.
A beautiful girl with pink hair, as enchanting as a fairy, stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the bustling city streets, watching the hurried passersby.
This was something she did every day — not just to experience the beauty of human life, but also to scout for beautiful girls.
Knock, knock, knock!
Someone knocked on the office door.
"Come in."
A woman with fiery green hair and an explosive figure walked in.
Seeing Elysia like this, she immediately felt a headache coming on:
"Elysia! Our company..."
Before she could finish, Elysia turned around and interrupted her:
"Mobius, how many times have I told you? In the company, you must address me by my title!"
"..."
Mobius ground her teeth in frustration.
This woman was always so willful — just like how, on a whim, she had dragged Mobius to start a company with her; just like how, on another whim, she had randomly married some man.
The worst part?
Her taste in men was terrible!
It was truly... infuriating beyond words.
Suppressing her inner anger, Mobius said:
"Chairwoman, please stop staring out the window. Over the past month, you've signed several amateurs. If this keeps up, our company is going to collapse."
"What?"
Elysia looked genuinely surprised:
"Mobius, with you here, how could the company possibly be at risk of bankruptcy?"
"Don't tell me... because you're jealous that those girls are taking away time I could spend with you, you're deliberately letting the company fail? That won't do~"
"..."
Mobius couldn't hold back anymore and shouted:
"The company is in this mess because of you! You see a pretty girl and immediately pull her into the company. But we don't have any real business operations! How are we supposed to sustain ourselves?"
"And what about your husband? Aren't you worried he might get jealous?"
The moment the word "husband" was mentioned, a bright, blissful smile appeared on Elysia's face.
"He would never get jealous. He's very supportive! He told me that if there's anything I can't handle, I should just ask him for help."
"Hmph!"
Mobius didn't know why, but seeing Elysia like this made an unexplainable irritation rise in her chest.
With a cold snort, she slapped the company's financial report onto the table:
"Since he said he'll help, let's see how he plans to fix this!"
Elysia glanced at the financial report and realized the situation was indeed critical.
She immediately pulled out her phone and found "Darling Husband" in her contacts and called.
At the villa.
Hugo was busy playing video games.
Hearing his phone ring, he glanced at the caller ID, immediately shut off his game, and answered.
"My sweet wife, what's up?"
On the other end, Elysia's voice came through sweetly:
"Honey..."
She had barely finished greeting him when Mobius's voice cut in, shouting:
"Hugo! We're not calling so you two can flirt! The company's facing a financial crisis — you must fix it! Otherwise, I'll make your wife stay at the office every day with no chance to go home!"
"What?!"
Hugo panicked.
Not letting Elysia come home was absolutely unacceptable!
Every evening, having dinner with Elysia and falling asleep together was the highlight of his life.
"A crisis, huh? No problem — I'll fix it right now!"
Mobius snorted:
"Fix it? How exactly do you plan to fix it?"
Hugo immediately answered:
"Given the company's current financial situation, we can absolutely shoot a film. As for actors, don't worry — the girls Elysia signed are more than enough."
"Shoot a movie?"
Mobius frowned, feeling a bit surprised.
She had this strange feeling... as if this man had everything planned out in advance.
Ding!
The company's fax machine spat out a document.
Hugo's voice followed:
"I just faxed over the script. Take a look. Oh, and Mobius! If you have any issues, come to me — don't even think about making my wife work overtime!"
Mobius ignored him.
She picked up the printed script and started reading.
Episode 1: "Girls, Armor, and Honkai Beasts"...
She read quickly, soon finishing the first part of the script.
"So? Pretty good, right? My husband wrote it!"
Elysia asked proudly.
Mobius rolled her eyes:
"Elysia, you knew he wrote a script ahead of time?"
Elysia shook her head:
"Nope~ I just believe in him. If he says he'll help me through any trouble, then he definitely will."
"..."
Mobius was speechless.
Hugo's voice came through the phone again:
"Mobius, how's the script? If it's good, hurry up and start shooting! Oh, and make sure my wife gets home early — I'm making her favorite dinner tonight."
He sounded absolutely confident, not worried about any issues with the script.
After all, in the world Hugo had come from, this script had already been proven to be a hit — there was no way it would fail!
Still...
His cocky tone really annoyed Mobius.
She immediately said:
"The script isn't the problem. The problem is, we need a director who truly understands it.
Hugo, unless you want Elysia herself to direct, you'd better step up."
