The Female Supporting Character Just Wants To Live A Good Life-Chapter 48.1: Sparks Part 1

Names mentioned in this chapter :

-苏芮 (sù ruì) – Su Rui, our female protagonist

-顾煜城 (gù yù chéng)- Gu Yu Cheng, the male lead

-苏华(sù huá)- Su Hua, the company owned by the Su family.

-顾氏(gù shì)- Gu Company

On the 1st, Su Rui finally finished her last supplementary class. At the same time, she took the internship form to seek approval from the form tutor and started the first day of working in Gu Company.

It was said to be working, but in reality, it was more like Su Rui is serving an apprenticeship at Gu Company instead.

Thus, other than participating in regular staff meetings and discussions, there was not much that really required her to be busy.

At any rate, Su Rui was a wage slave[1] for a year before she fell ill in the first place.

Thus, the job at Gu Company was heaven for Su Rui.

It was sort of like learning in another place.

On the contrary, Gu Yu Cheng seemed to be very nervous.

Not only did he personally send Su Rui to the company this morning, but he also visited the planning department thrice to give guidance even though work hasn’t ended.

When Su Rui was unable to look at this anymore, she dragged Gu Yu Cheng back to his chairman’s office in the end.

“I’m not here to be a commercial spy, so why are you so nervous about me?” Su Rui said half-jokingly as she batted her eyelashes and looked towards Gu Yu Cheng.

Gu Yu Cheng was amused by Su Rui’s use of words.

“If you want to know anything, you can ask me directly. There is no need for you to be a commercial spy.” Gu Yu Cheng softly chuckled and said.

“Wouldn’t that make me feel very unfulfilled?” Su Rui pretended to look askance at Gu Yu Cheng and said.

After saying that, Su Rui’s expression became a little more serious. She looked at Gu Yu Cheng and reassured him, “Originally most of what I have to do is to learn, and I will not encounter any trouble, so you do not have to worry.”

Actually, Su Rui hasn’t gotten used to the work yet.

Speaking of which, the people in the planning department were a little tense when they first met her this morning.

However, after all, they were all youngsters, no awkwardness can’t be broken with a cup of milk tea or a topic of interest during break time.

By the afternoon and within one day, Su Rui was already getting along pretty well with the people in the planning department.

And speaking of a more realistic question.

It wasn’t like she and Gu Yu Cheng was in some ambiguous or ambiguous secret affair. Anyway, she was the rightful girlfriend of Chairman Gu and the type that have crossed the open road[2].

Who would be so crazy to displease her?

This was actually the reason why Su Rui was considering going to Su Hua or Gu Company for an internship and why she did not consider applying as a small intern at another company.

Why must she refuse when she had no masochistic tendencies and there are better options

Moreover, in Gu Company or Su Hua, the things Su Rui could learn was far more useful than going to other companies as an intern.

Hearing Su Rui’s response, the corner of Gu Yu Cheng’s lips raised. He took a step forward to hold Su Rui’s waist and lowered his head to kiss Su Rui.

“I’m not worried.” Gu Yu Cheng said.

He still recognised Su Rui’s abilities in this regard, so he really wasn’t worried.

“It’s just that knowing that you are at the company, I couldn’t help but want to go over there.” Looking at Su Rui with a smile on his face, Gu Yu Cheng said truthfully.

Hearing Gu Yu Cheng’s words, Su Rui couldn’t maintain her expression. A whiff of joy and a little foolish smile surfaced.

Who said Gu Yu Cheng was taciturn?

Oh, it seems like it was herself?

That previous opinion is null and void.

In short, Su Rui found that the person with the surname Gu was really getting better at talking now, and a random sentence could make her heart flutter.

Su Rui silently commented about Gu Yu Cheng in her heart. Her fingertips ran over the tie that was on top of Gu Yu Cheng’s shirt, but in her head, she began to think of another matter.

On Christmas Eve, should she give Gu Yu Cheng a tie?

Actually, as a locally born and bred Chinese, Su Rui still truly doesn’t know the significance of holidays like Christmas Eve, Christmas, Easter etc.

However, the meaning and so on is not really important. Such a festival is just to find a not so normal and awkward date which gives you a reason to spend, party and date.

When she was single previously, Su Rui wouldn’t have celebrated this kind of holiday. At most, she had something she needed and took advantage of the holiday discount to grab a bunch of things.

Now, she has a boyfriend. Su Rui is honestly kind of looking forward to these holidays.

As for the tie, Su Rui had considered whether she should give Gu Yu Cheng a tie as a birthday present previously when Gu Yu Cheng was celebrating his birthday.

It is just that the meaning of sending a tie was a little different. At that time, the two of them were still in the stage of getting to know one another. She thought that sending a tie was a little inappropriate, so Su Rui also had to give up that idea at that time.

It is an appropriate time to give it now.

Just that…

She was wondering if Gu Yu Cheng would be willing to wear a pink tie if she gave that to him.

Looking at Gu Yu Cheng, a certain thought of wanting to see him making a fool of himself popped up in Su Rui’s head.

“What are you thinking about?” The strength of his grip tightened on Su Rui’s waist as he asked.

“Oh, nothing.” Su Rui said. She stifled a smile and averted her eyes.

Seeing this, Gu Yu Cheng didn’t ask any further.

[1] 社畜(shè chù)- Wage slave. It is generally used to ridicule oneself or ridicule others in a self-deprecating manner. Others will give up the dignity of being a human being for the sake of the enterprise. This is by giving sleep, eat, and socialisation with family and friends etc. to work hard for the enterprise (regardless of whether it is working hours or not). The same applies to part time works and interns.

[2] 过明路(guò míng lù)- The literal translation would be to cross the open road. It would mean that the matter has been made public and there is no need to hide it.
