Chapter 3
Yanhan Residence location was strategic. Behind it was a bustling creative park area[1], and its only 100 meters away from well-known hospital, school, and library in the city. Yanhan Residence was only one in many properties that the female supporting character had. Because it was very near to the company, she would use it as her resting place during working period.
Chu Chu actually did not really care about the luxurious mansion, what she admired was the residence location that was downtown where the land cost as much as gold. The neighborhoods management was quite strict; the basement parking elevator required a card to swipe before pressing a key.
After going up using the elevator, Chu Chu opened the door without a hitch using her fingerprint. She looked at the surroundings inside the apartment and finally realized the meaning of poverty limits ones imagination. Even though there were never a shortage of novels that depicted the luxurious life of the riches, they couldnt compare with the shock of seeing one with your own eyes.
Ample lighting, bright and clear floor-to-ceiling windows, classic luxury Italian wood furniture, and aesthetic interior design. On the table was some clear and dazzling Baccarat crystal cups that were placed arbitrarily, and on its side was an elegant small wooden box.
Chu Chu opened the wooden box curiously and found some car keys with different car logos in it. Because she had no knowledge in luxurious car, she couldnt distinguish each keys origin at all. She resentfully returned the wooden box in its original position. She then cautiously circled around the house; it was extravagant, classic, and tasteful through and through.
Chu Chu stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows and took the panoramic view of the azure sky and the bustling city in. She couldnt help but sigh ruefully. The female supporting character must have really lost her mind to brazenly pester the male lead. There was practically a gap of aristocrat and actor between them. Sure enough, only an eldest miss[2]that comes from rich and powerful family background could care about romantic love.
If she could have so much money, she would be lazing around waiting to die[3]everyday and wouldnt go to work anymore. Provided that a woman can lie down in a grand house, had a wardrobe full of high-end fashionable outfit, possessed an independent and favorable economic condition, who would care so much about having a man or not?
Chu Chu would just play the real-life version of Love Nikki-Dress UP Queen! in the wardrobe and spend a whole day!
[Please strengthen the aura of Vicious Female Supporting Character through the task. Disappearance of the aura will cause removal by the main world.]
[Task: Prevent Li Taihe from breaking off his agency contract and persuade him to stay.]
Chu Chu was immersing herself in the beautiful daydream when the jarring strange noise appeared again, cutting short her aspiration of a parasite life. The same task words appeared on the floor-to-ceiling window although only for a moment.
Hearing the sound, Chu Chu got annoyed. If she really listened to what it said, then she would be a puppy!
Ding
A phone ringtone suddenly rang, startling Chu Chu. She found a phone from her bag frantically; the caller ID was Dr. Hu. She hastily answered the phone, Hello?
President Chu, sorry to disturb you. I would like to confirm the check-up time with you, what time would be convenient for you today? The voice on the other end of the phone was extremely polite.
Sorry, Dr.Hu. I am a bit tired today, lets talk about this another day, said Chu Chu calmly. She was totally not in mood for an examination.
Alright, if you need anything you can contact me anytime. Dr. Hu politely hung up the call.
Chu Chu pondered over it for a moment and decisively turned the phone off. She was practically facing death, yet people still bothered her?
Chu Chu thought about it carefully. Before she transmigrated into a book, she got struck by a lightning. The probability of surviving was extremely low. Currently Chu Chu was carrying the Vicious Female Supporting Character Aura on her head. If she didnt complete the task, she could be wiped out anytime. Since life was bitter and short, why not be a happy rich ghost and live enjoyably until the end of life?

Three days later.
In Puxin Building, Executive Secretary Wang Qing looking at the absolutely empty office, reported to Zhang Jianian apologetically, Chief Assistant, President Chu hasnt come to the office for three days. Please look.
Zhang Jianian was silent for a while, feeling headache holding his head. Give President Chu a call.
Secretary Wang Qing cautiously said, Yesterday I tried to contact President Chu, but her phone has been off since then.
What do you mean? Zhang Jianian couldnt help but raised his eyebrow and inquired, Did the housekeeper say anything?
President Chu was extremely territorial and hated it when other people step inside her house. The housekeeper only dared to go inside when she was out and absolutely would never disturb.
Wang Qing helplessly said, The housekeeper said that President Chu has not stepped outside, so she should still be inside the house.
Zhang Jianian fell into silence, unsure what kind of lousy idea his boss had. His position was very awkward. He should be the CEOs most trusted aide, but his relationship with President Chu was only on the surface. President Chu was extremely forceful, whoever that came to bother her rashly would suffer a torrent of violent scolding.
Zhang Jianian finally sighed and said, I understand, I will go to Yanran Residence in a while.
This was precisely what it meant to be close to the sovereign can be as dangerous as lying with a tiger. If it were not him who go down to hell, who would?
Wang Qings heart was full of sympathy and wholeheartedly said, You have worked hard.
Just when Executive Secretary Wang Qing came back returned to her office, she happened to hear some ladies gossiping in the room.
Could it be President Chu was angry because of Li Taihes matter? Now she didnt even come into the office, the contract termination matter was spreading wildly on the Internet.
Wow, the netizens are scolding so harshly. I heard the President already knows about this and let Big Sis Wang mediate.
How can she mediate this? Who would want to be against Li Taihe and get killed by President Chu?
As a new intern, Xia Xiaoxiao sat in the middle of the secretaries, unsure of what to say. She had only met President Chu once; her only impression was that President Chu was an indifferent and arrogant beauty yet would send people to give her cookie behind the scenes.
Xia Xiaoxiao thought she had made a fool of herself in front of President Chu by falling into the water, truly making her lose face. After she transferred from Chenxing Film and Television to Yinda Investment, she hadnt met President Chu face to face because President Chu hadnt come to the office for three days.
Hearing the lively discussion inside the room, Wang Qing frowned. She knocked loudly on the door immediately and sternly said, Did the company pay you to gossip here?
Seeing the Head Secretary was back, the originally chattering secretaries scattered to their respective seats with their tails between their legs. The Presidents office was the Presidents assistants center, and it was supervised by Head Secretary Wang Qing.
Wang Qing patrolled around with a solemn expression and warned, Chief Assistant has gone to the Yanhan Residence. It is estimated that President Chu will come to the office in the afternoon. What should be said and what should not be said, its best if everyone calculates it in your heart.
Hearing this news, everyone immediately sucked in a cold breath and went into action energetically just like a wind-up key that has been twisted. Someone immediately said, Big Sis Wang, Im going to follow up with the finance
Big Sis Wang, here are Xiaoying Cultures and Guangjie Entertainments investment proposals. Could you see whether President Chu can look over it this afternoon?
Big Sis Wang, this is the first half of Chenxing Film and Televisions financial report.
Xia Xiaoxiao sat blankly on her chair, feeling surprised to look at the scene. The earlier chatting and gossiping people immediately switched mode into elites in a blink of an eye. It was like the food market aunties changed into Ivy League top students. She half-understandingly received the huge news and felt that Chenxing Film and Television and Yinda Investment working style was very different, making her quite unable to fit.
Yinda Investment was a PE(private equity)fund investment company while Chenxing Film and Television was just a small domain of President Chu testing the water in film and television industry. If talking purely about academic qualifications, Xia Xiaoxiao absolutely could not enter Yinda Investment, but who made her be the authorized woman by President Chus imperial order?
President Chu remembered Xia Xiaoxiaos name and even sent someone to give her a cookie, obviously showing friendly signs. As a workplace old fox, Wang Qing took the initiative on behalf of the boss, immediately requested Xia Xiaoxiao to be transferred to Yinda general headquarters and directly supervised her.
Looking at the busy pace of work, Xia Xiaoxiao walked to the front of Wang Qings table and asked timidly, Sister Wang, is there anything I can help with?
Wang Qing looked up at her and couldnt help but frowned slightly. Xia Xiaoxiao was quite young and she didnt use any makeup. Her face still carried the youthful and tenderness of a college student who was wet behind the ears, and she was wearing an ordinary hoodie and sneakers.
Only then did Wang Qing remember that she was too busy and forgot to remind Xia Xiaoxiao about looks and clothes. The secretaries of the presidents office were all workforce White Bone Spirit[4]with high heels, so Xia Xiaoxiaos painting style was truly odd. Wang Qing awkwardly said, You wait for President Chu to come, and go downstairs to buy coffee?
Xia Xiaoxiao immediately livened up and said seriously, Okay!
Xia Xiaoxiao didnt care about doing small errands as long as she had work to do. After all, she couldnt do other professional work immediately.

[Please strengthen the aura of Vicious Female Supporting Character through the task. Disappearance of the aura will cause removal by the main world.]
[Task: Prevent Li Taihe from breaking off his agency contract and persuade him to stay.]
[Your Vicious Female Supporting Character aura is about to disappear, please complete the task as soon as possible.]
On this side in Yanhan Residence, Chu Chu was holding the toilet vomiting blood frantically, resembling a terminally ill female lead in a youth pain literature.
Things started from yesterday. After Chu Chu had fun at home for two days, the Vicious Female Supporting Character halo on her head was finally on the verge of being transparent. She neglected the task again and again and finally faced a punishment. She felt a burst of discomfort, followed by vomiting a big mouthful of blood.
Chu Chu was startled at first but then she got used to it. She glanced at her pale face in the mirror and unexpectedly still found joy in the suffering. Somehow this feels quite like a sick beauty style?
Chu Chu could accept being obliterated by the main world, but the real question was, could she live to her hearts content? This kind of annoying underhanded tactic was too painful, but unfortunately she was chicken-hearted and didnt dare to end her own life.
[Please strengthen the aura of Vicious Female Supporting Character through the task. Disappearance of the aura will cause removal by the main world.]
[Task: Prevent Li Taihe from breaking off his agency contract and persuade him to stay.]
The strange voice appeared again, as if it could feel that she could no longer stand the pain and reminded her meaningfully.
The task text slid across the mirror in the bathroom like a bewitching demon spell.
It was as if someone was coaxing silently: Be a bad person, be a bad person. As long as you become a vicious female supporting character, you can get a chance to live.
Chu Chu stared at those words without any expression, and said word by word, Keep. Dreaming.
Even if she were to die, she didnt want to be a vicious female supporting character. Theflagshe set before; she would stand by it even if she had to kneel.
Chu Chu just had her heart lit with great and magnificent ambition, and it was followed by another round of vomiting blood. Ugh
Her miserable vomiting sound echoed in the bathroom. The strange voice finally changed the task.
[Please strengthen the aura of Vicious Female Supporting Character through the task. Disappearance of the aura will cause removal by the main world.]
[Task: Go to Yinda Investment to and work regularly.]
Chu Chu was stunned when she heard the content. This was the first task that was unrelated to the male lead Li Taihe and it seemed to be not difficult at all.
In the novel, the male and female leads were both in Chenxing Film and Television and they had nothing to do with Yinda Investment. Could she really just show her face in the office and all her physical ailmentthat caused her to be sore from head to toe and vomit bloodbe solved?
At this time, the doorbell rang with a ding dong sound. Chu Chu looked at the door in great surprise.
Zhang Jianian had come to the Yanhan Residence twice. He bit the bullet and stood outside the door and pressed the doorbell with great difficulty, preparing to receive the violent as a hurricane verbal abuse. President Chu paid great attention to personal space and loathed other people who approached her life. This was also why the secretaries didnt dare to come to check up on her.
Zhang Jianian was an executive, so worst-case scenario even if President Chu was dissatisfied in him in every way, she would still consider the Chairmans face.
To Zhang Jianians surprise, the President Chu who opened the door was not furious. Her skin was so pale it was almost transparent, and she was still wearing a silk pajama. She asked vigilantly, Whats the matter?
Zhang Jianian was puzzled by the other partys dress and complexion. He hesitated for a moment, then politely said, President Chu, you have not been to the company for three days. We could not contact you and were worried. Did you fall ill?
Chu Chu seemed to be in extremely bad condition. After all, she didnt have the energy to swear at people this time. She was probably seriously ill, so it was normal not to go to work.
Chu Chu was not yet familiar with the world in the book, so how could she know that if the boss didnt go to work, the subordinate will come to her door.
Chu Chu scratched her head and calmly said, No, I just forgot that president also need to be on duty.
Didnt rich second generation only need to spend time in drinking and pleasure and play around? Why would they need to work meticulously? Once Chu Chu transmigrated to the book, she didnt have a concept of working. She also wasnt in shortage of money.
Zhang Jianian who didnt know how to respond could only quietly shut up. .
