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

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

-刘玲(Liú líng)- Liu Ling, Su Rui’s university roommate

Hm? They were seen?

When Su Rui heard what Liu Ling had said, she was slightly stunned and said to herself.

But the dormitory is so bright and spacious. Thus, it was normal to be seen.

Fortunately, regarding the matter of Su Rui dating Gu Yu Cheng, she didn’t plan to hide anything.

“Yes.” Su Rui candidly smiled and nodded her head.

“It’s true!” When Liu Ling saw Su Rui nodding her head, her eyes suddenly widened even more, and looked at Su Rui with surprise.

“Hold on, let me collect my thoughts.”

“You said that your boyfriend picked you up this afternoon, and then just now Gu Yu Cheng brought you back. So, Gu Yu Cheng is your…”

“My boyfriend.” Su Rui completed Liu Ling’s sentence and said with a smile.

After saying that, she saw Liu Ling’s face still looked incredulous. Su Rui couldn’t help but find it funny. She raised her eyebrows and couldn’t control herself but grumbled, “Even if Gu Yu Cheng is my boyfriend, you don’t have to be so surprised, right?”

Originally, Su Rui also planned to formally find a time on a day for the few of them to get together for a meal, which is a way to introduce her boyfriend to her friends so that they can be acquainted.

Now, Su Rui was somewhat glad that Liu Ling saw Gu Yu Cheng first.

Otherwise, if they really wait until the day they actually have a meal together, this girl’s silly appearance, where her mouth could even swallow a light bulb when she sees Gu Yu Cheng….

Heh, that’s a little embarrassing.

“How can I not be surprised? That’s Gu Yu Cheng!” Liu Ling retorted.

God! Who is Gu Yu Cheng?

Hundreds of successful case studies and analysis textbooks probably published around the three words “Gu Yu Cheng” alone.

Especially if you put it in University B’s Economics and Management major, that’s a well-known person and quotes that can be hung on the wall.

Then, Su Rui actually told her that, “Yes, you aren’t blind, and you didn’t see it wrongly, Gu Yu Cheng is my boyfriend!”

This kind of situation was even better than Su Rui coming back and telling her, “I won 10 million dollars in the lottery.’, ok? The point is that she saw it with her own eyes when she went downstairs to get the printouts!

“Why didn’t you say so before?” Liu Ling stared at Su Rui and asked grudgingly.

“Hm? Didn’t I say that before?”

Liu Ling: You did, but I didn’t believe you.

……

Only after carefully confirming once again that this roommate of hers was still a human, Liu Ling finally managed to slightly calm herself down from the astoundment.

Then, Liu Ling approached Su Rui with a nosy expression.

“Tell me the truth, how did you hook up with Gu Yu Cheng, hm?” Liu Ling blinked and pulled Su Rui as she asked.

Regarding this point, Liu Ling was very curious.

When she was still reading the male god’s^[1] profile and interview videos on some encyclopedia^[2], she didn’t realize that this roommate, who lived with her every day, had already captured this man.

This… Comparing a human to another human, she can’t beat her.

When Su Rui heard this, she raised her eyebrows and glared at Liu Ling unceremoniously.

“What do you mean by hook up? We are in a normal relationship, ok?” Su Rui grudgingly glanced at Liu Ling and said.

“Ahem, alright, a slip of the tongue.” After being glared at and eye-rolled by Su Rui, Liu Ling embarrassedly smiled and corrected herself. After a pause, she continued to nosily ask, “So tell me, how did you and this boyfriend of yours get together?”

“Through a blind date.” Su Rui said truthfully.

“A blind date?!” Liu Ling’s face became even more mystified.

“Yup, it was through a blind date. Didn’t Tang Xiao also mention that on the day of our university’s opening ceremony before, where the two families had a blind date before the start of the school year.”

Hearing Su Rui’s reminder, Liu Ling also recalled that they did mention a bit about this topic when the three of them were chatting.

“During that time?”

“En, it was at that time.”

“But, I thought you said that you were going through formalities, and it didn’t work out?” Liu Ling questioned.

She still remembered Tang Xiao’s expression of wanting to laugh and profound understanding when the topic of “Su Rui and Gu Yu Cheng had a blind date” was brought up.

“Actually it’s not really going through formalities.” Su Rui responded.

At least she had a decent attitude when she was on that blind date.

“There was some misunderstanding in between, but it was all explained.” Su Rui generally explained and added, “After that, we all thought that the other was pretty nice and got along well, so we started dating.”

“Just like that?”

“En, just like that.”

As Su Rui said that, she saw Liu Ling’s expression of #I don’t think the story should be like this on her face and raised her eyebrows.

“Why? Are you disappointed?”

“A little.” Liu Ling nodded with a “sincere” look on her face and added, “Both you and Gu Yu Cheng got together… It must have been bizarre, ah heck! It was more like a spectacular beginning, right?”

Bizzare? And a spectacular way?

Hearing these two adjectives Liu Ling had used, the corner of Su Rui’s eyes started to twitch a little.

“Then, what do you think it should be like?” Su Rui looked at Liu Ling and asked.

“That’s certainly plenty of ways.”

Liu Ling tilted her head and pondered. Then, she said again, “For example, you met some robber or lecher on the road one day, you happened to meet Chairman Gu and he saved you.”

“Like, at some auction, both of you have your eyes on the same thing at the same time, and then both of you don’t fight and don’t like each other.”

“Another example would be your family’s company going bankrupt, and you have to seek help from a big corporation, and then Gu Company was the last straw for you…”

This should be the beginning of the love story between a domineering president and a Young Miss in public opinion.

Blind date? Getting along? Dating?

That’s a little too bland of a beginning, isn’t?

“Even if it was a blind date, shouldn’t it be something like your father forces you to go on a blind date with Chairman Gu for his own benefit. At first, the two of you disliked and argued with one another. Then, both of you suddenly found that you like each other. This kind of plot?” Liu Ling said again with a straight face.

When Su Rui heard that, she pursed her lips.

“Classmate Liu Ling, haven’t you finished the chocolates my dad brought you?” Su Rui wearily asked.

What do you mean her family’s company went bankrupt? And for Comrade Lao Su’s benefit bla bla?

Can’t this student have higher hopes for her family?

“Also, what kind of nonsense are those thoughts of yours?” Su Rui said as she somewhat didn’t know whether to cry or laugh, “Have you watched too many melodramatic^[3] TV shows?”

Not to mention that it’s pretty safe in broad daylight nowadays, wouldn’t she call the police if she got robbed?

And what bankruptcy? Does she think that bankruptcy is like cracking eggs? That if you say it is broken, then it would be broken and one after another? It’s not that simple.

As for disliking one another, if both of them genuinely disliked each other in the first place, there wouldn’t be any continuation after that.

……

“Don’t worry, both Gu Yu Cheng and I just went on a blind date, are fond of one another, and then we got together. There is no such thing as those twists and turns.” After a pause, Su Rui continued, “If there were really all these twists and turns like what you have said, then I guess both of us have already broken up, what is the point in getting along?”

“Cough. Cough. It seems that’s true.” Hearing Su Rui’s scornful trash talk, Su Rui embarrassedly smiled.

“But, I still feel a little disappointed.” Liu Ling said as she shook her head with feigned regret.

#My roommate’s boyfriend is Gu Yu Cheng!

It’s impressive that the content of such a large gossip is so untwisted and bizarre and has no ups and downs.

“Then how do you and Gu Yu Cheng get along?” Although the beginning of the story was too realistic, Liu Ling was still quite curious about how Su Rui and Gu Yu Cheng are getting along.

She wonders if there will be any parts such as a forced kiss, pushing her to a corner, and he would defend with all his might for the woman he loves.

Heh heh…

Liu Ling nosily thought in her head.

However, the truth was going to disappoint Liu Ling.

How are they getting along?

When Su Rui heard that question, she raised her eyebrows.

It’s just the way a normal couple usually gets along.

As she thought about it, Su Rui opened the curtains and pointed out.

“There, something like that.” Su Rui said as she pointed to the back of the dorm downstairs.

At the moment, two or three couples were standing, holding hands, and with a blissful expression downstairs and it was unknown what they were discussing.

Wasn’t this how she and Gu Yu Cheng usually interacted?

It was just that Gu Yu Cheng’s age as well as Su Rui’s mental age were not young, and the two of them were dating for the aim of marriage, so the topics they discussed and the things they considered might just be relatively mature and practical.

“Just like that?”

“Yeah?”

“I don’t believe you!”

“When you meet Gu Yu Cheng, you’ll believe it.” Su Rui said with an indifferent smile. She paused and continued, “If not, let’s call Tang Xiao to join us, and we can eat together this week?”

“Really?!” Hearing Su Rui’s words, Liu Ling’s face lit up.

It’s just that leaving excitement aside when it comes to the issue of having a meal together, Liu Ling is a little wimpy again.

“No, no, no, not this week! Next week…Let’s meet next week.” Liu Ling shook her head and said.

“What’s wrong? You have something going on this week?”

“Nothing, but you have to give me some time to prepare mentally.”

“Pft…” Looking at this serious and nervous expression on Liu Ling, who was about to meet her idol, Su Rui couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

“Alright, but he’s on a business trip next week, and then the next week you’ll be getting ready for your internship, won’t you?”

“Then, this weekend!”

“Not this weekend.”

“Why?” Liu Ling asked subconsciously. Then, she thought of something, and her eyes suddenly lit up.

“I remembered! This weekend is Gu Yu Cheng’s birthday, isn’t it?!”

“Aiyo, no wonder you asked me previously what you should get for your boyfriend, heh heh.”

“Are you planning to spend your birthday with Chairman Gu this weekend?”

“Mhm.”

“Then, have you thought of what you are going to give him?”

“Of course.”

“What is it?” Liu Ling asked very curiously.

But Su Rui just blinked her eyes and said, “Secret.”

“Ooooh. Wow, having a boyfriend is that amazing to the point that you are keeping secrets from me.” Liu Ling glanced towards Su Rui disdainfully and said.

After a pause, Liu Ling suddenly looked at Su Rui with an ambiguous expression and asked, “Don’t tell me you are going to adopt that opinion of mine, right?”

“Hm? What opinion?”

“Giving yourself to Chairman Gu.” Liu Ling said with a sinister smile.

Hearing Liu Ling’s words, Su Rui’s face flushed. Then, she leisurely glanced at her and said, “You think too much.”

“No, really, why not? I think it’s fine.” As she said that, she seemed to be afraid that her suggestion would not be taken. Liu Ling added, “Honestly, with Gu Yu Cheng, you are not at a loss. You don’t know how many people want to…”

“Ahem.” Su Rui cleared her throat and directly interrupted Liu Ling’s conversation that was like darting towards the main road^[4]. And with a fake smile, Su Rui said, “Let’s move on to the next question.”

“Have you finished the research paper for tomorrow’s class project?”

Liu Ling: What the f*ck!^[5]

Originally she wanted to finish it, but in the end, she was “held up” by these two people this evening.

Gossips distract people…

“But, I truly think you might want to consider that mature and wonderful suggestion of mine.”

“Ha ha.”
