The Female Supporting Character Just Wants To Live A Good Life

Names mentioned in this chapter :

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

-芮芮 (ruì ruì)- Rui Rui, a nickname of the female protagonist

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

-顾安安(gù ān’ān)- Gu An An, Gu Yan Rui’s nickname.

After leaving Gu An An with his paternal grandparents, Gu Yu Cheng drove to University B.

This time, Gu Yu Cheng didn’t wait downstairs, but parked the car and went up to the office of Professor Zhou, Su Rui’s tutor.

Gu Yu Cheng is originally an outstanding alumnus of University B. Furthermore, Gu Company is one of the most popular research subjects in the Economic and Management faculty at University B.

Occasionally, this man would be invited to University B as a guest speaker for the university’s celebration and graduation ceremony.

Hence, the teachers at University B were not unfamiliar with this person, Gu Yu Cheng.

However, seeing Gu Yu Cheng suddenly appear, Professor Zhou was startled and then surprised.

“Oh my, Chairman Gu. What a rare guest,” Professor Zhou said as he got up and greeted him.

Gu Yu Cheng also greeted Professor Zhou.

Noticing that Professor Zhou was about to make tea for him, Gu Yu Cheng stopped him, “You don’t have to trouble yourself.”

Gu Yu Cheng said with a smile, “I’m here to fetch my wife. Along the way, I would like to enquire something with Professor Zhou.”

When Professor Zhou saw Gu Yu Cheng arrive, he thought of Su Rui, who was sitting in the classroom next door and guessed the intention of his visit.

Hence, he was not surprised when he heard Gu Yu Cheng’s words.

“She is in the classroom next door. After she decides the topic, there is still some information and important points to settle, but it should be almost done by now.”

Professor Zhou led Gu Yu Cheng to the classroom next door.

At this moment, Su Rui and a few other fourth-year students were in the small classroom sorting their project materials.

The moment Su Rui saw Gu Yu Cheng, her eyes lit up and she was a little surprised.

“Yu Cheng, you are here.”

“Let me do it.” Gu Yu Cheng walked over and helped Su Rui tidy up the materials and books on the table.

When Gu Yu Cheng saw a small doodle that Su Rui drew on the corner of a piece of paper, his hand movements froze and he looked at it a few more times.

In the drawing, Su Rui drew two chibi characters, a large and a small one. There was no need to guess that the large figure was definitely him and the small figure was Gu An An.

The two figures were wearing a very similar parent-child outfit that they wore during the day today. In the picture, Su Rui particularly accentuated the tie and small bow tie in the same floral colour.

Seeing Su Rui’s drawing, Gu Yu Cheng laughed silently and did not say anything.

He kept the piece of paper along with the other materials, very carefully.

The information Su Rui required was already collated. While she was waiting for Gu Yu Cheng to send her a message, she suddenly remembered that the image of her son being carried by his father’s arms was too adorable, so she casually drew it.

Originally, Su Rui thought that Gu Yu Cheng was stuck in traffic on the road and she was wondering why he hadn’t come yet.

But she didn’t expect that this man came up directly today.

Looking at Professor Zhou, who came with Gu Yu Cheng, Su Rui pondered and vaguely guessed Gu Yu Cheng’s purpose of visiting here.

Thus, after greeting the other students in the small classroom who was still in a state of excitement, Su Rui naturally followed Gu Yu Cheng and went to sit in Professor Zhou’s office for a while.

Su Rui was more than happy to accept someone’s offer to open a small back door^[1] for her.

In fact, it can’t exactly be described as a “back door.” After all, Su Rui still had to do the graduation project.

It’s just that if she can have better communication and exchange with her tutor in the process, why shouldn’t she do so?

The conversation between the three of them in the office was not entirely about Su Rui’s graduation project, but more like a discussion about the recent economic situation.

However, how could Professor Zhou not understand the purpose of Gu Yu Cheng’s visit today as a man with extensive experience when he had eaten so much salt and crossed so many bridges?

With tonight’s programme in mind, Gu Yu Cheng did not stay too long with Professor Zhou.

Gu Yu Cheng said, “I’ll need to trouble Professor Zhou with Rui Rui’s graduation project for the next few days.”

When Professor Zhou heard that, he immediately smiled.

“Haha. What’s the point of being so polite? It’s my duty as a tutor to guide my students to complete their graduation project.” After a pause, Professor Zhou added, “Besides, I’m very much looking forward to Su Rui’s graduation project.”

Su Rui also said with a smile, “Then, I will have to trouble Professor Zhou to criticise and guide me.”

The two of them exchanged pleasantries with Professor Zhou before they left.

As they walked along the school’s path, Su Rui glanced at the man beside her and couldn’t help but smile.

“What are you smiling for?” Gu Yu Cheng asked.

“Nothing,” Su Rui said without concealing the smile on her face.

“Your car is parked in the car park over at West Square?”

Gu Yu Cheng responded, “Mm, pass me your bag.”

“No, this is very light.” The heavy pile of information and books were all being held by Gu Yu Cheng and Su Rui was holding a light clutch bag.

“Where are we going tonight?” Su Rui couldn’t help but ask with some curiosity.

“Tang Jun’s winery over at Ji Le Shan.”

Su Rui raised her eyebrows slightly.

Unsurprisingly, Gu Yu Cheng should have reserved the entire place since he specially chose Tang Jun’s property.

“Are we going to spend the night over there?”

“En,” Gu Yu Cheng answered. There seemed to be a hint of emotion under his eyes that only Su Rui could understand.

After being interrupted several times by his son, Gu Yu Cheng probably really wanted to throw his son far away at times like this.

There were several times when Su Rui thought Gu Yu Cheng was about to beat Gu An An up.

Upholding the principle of not speaking the truth when one realizes something, Su Rui turned her head and smiled, letting Gu Yu Cheng led her to the car.

This time, Gu Yu Cheng came to the school to pick up his wife with such fanfare, which naturally drew the attention of many people.

As soon as Su Rui and Gu Yu Cheng left the school, pictures of Gu Yu Cheng helping Su Rui pack her books in a small classroom and the two of them walking hand in hand around the campus were already circulating in various chat groups at University B.

Even a picture of the two of them kissing in the car was taken, although it was not very clear.

^[1] The “small back door” in this case is like meeting through “connection”. Like Gu Yu Cheng is acquainted with the professor, so he could put in the words to ask the professor to “help” her.
