“Dormitory Leader~” Su Rui stuck her head out from the bed’s side and called out to Liu Ling below.
As there were only two people in this dormitory, Liu Ling was very honoured to be elected as the dormitory leader and Su Rui was elected as the student in charge of general affairs.
“What?” Liu Ling turned her head, and asked when she heard Su Rui calling her. “What item do you want me to pass to you again?”
Usually, it’s only when she wants help that Su Rui would call her ‘Dorm Leader’.
“No, don’t tell me that that in my eyes, you, the Dorm Leader, are only worth this much?” Su Rui raised an eyebrow and deliberately teased her.
“Is it not?”
“Of course not.” After a pause, Su Rui added, “Little Comrade Liu, you think too lowly of yourself.”
“Let me ask you a serious question.” Slightly changing the topic, Su Rui looked at Liu Ling again with a face seeking knowledge as she asked.
“What do you want to ask? Go ahead.” She raised her eyebrows and added, “Of course, it will depend on my mood to answer or not.”
“What do you think would be best to give someone as a birthday present? Something a little more practical or sentimental?” Su Rui asked.
To be honest, when she remembered that Gu Yu Cheng’s birthday was this weekend, more than a dozen of ideas had already popped up in her head, but she began to be indecisive.
“Birthday present?” She paused to think and added, “Personally, I would prefer something a little more practical.”
“Wait a second!” As she realised something, Liu Ling suddenly looked at Su Rui with a curious expression, “Whose birthday is it?”
After she said that, Liu Ling looked at Su Rui again with an ambiguous look on her face and asked, “It’s not your boyfriend, is it?”
Why haven’t I seen you being so sharp when we were watching ‘Who’s the Murderer’ dramas?
Su Rui glanced at Liu Ling and silently complained about it inwardly.
“So what is your suggestion?”
“My suggestion? Heh heh.” Liu Ling looked at Su Rui and suddenly gave a perverted smile and said, “What’s there to be indecisive about? Just give yourself to him.”
Su Rui’s mouth twitched continuously when she heard this.
“Speak in a human language.”
“Ahem. Fine, then….Game equipment?”
“No, I think you said your boyfriend doesn’t play games.”
“Otherwise, a figurine? Autographed photos? Shoes? Couple bracelet…”
“Stop.” The more she listened to it, the odder it became. Su Rui immediately interrupted Liu Ling.
“Why? Your boyfriend doesn’t like these?”
“Uhm, to put it this way, what do you think your male god[1] will like?”
“My male god? Which type are you referring to?”
“Someone like Gu Yu Cheng.”
“Gu Yu Cheng?!”
“If it is something like Chairman Gu, then there’s no need to consider at all.” Liu Ling said faintly.
“Why?”
“Do you think a person like Gu Yu Cheng would lack anything? ” Liu Ling paused and eyed Su Rui. Then, she raised her eyebrows and asked, “Why? Is your boyfriend the same type as Gu Yu Cheng?”
Su Rui couldn’t help but chuckled and said, “Coincidentally, my boyfriend’s name is Gu Yu Cheng.”
Hearing this, Liu Ling’s heart did not waver and even wanted to roll her eyes.
“Foolish child, go to sleep now. You’ll have everything you want when you are asleep.”
Su Rui: ?
So, after all the commotion, she didn’t get any useful advice from this teammate who messes things up[2]?
……
On the other side, at Gu house.
After watching the reruns of television drama that she watches regularly, Mrs Gu finally awaited for Gu Yu Cheng to return.
After staring at Gu Yu Cheng for a long time, Mrs Gu finally couldn’t hold herself back and asked when she saw Gu Yu Cheng going up the stairs, “Xiao Wang said you had left the company before 9 o’clock?”
“En.” Gu Yu Cheng nodded lightly.
“Where have you been? It’s been a few hours.” Although she already had an idea of where he gone to do afterwards, when she heard the news from Wang Zhou, she still couldn’t help asking with her eyes slightly lit up.
Gu Yu Cheng glanced at Mrs Gu.
“University B.”
As expected!
Hearing Gu Yu Cheng’s words, Mrs Gu’s face suddenly had a smile on her face that couldn’t be hidden.
However, the next second she made a stern face, glanced at Gu Yu Cheng and said, “If you were to go to her university, so be it. But Gu Yu Cheng, let me remind you again, Rui Rui is still young.”
When Gu Yu Cheng didn’t understand romantic relationships, he just couldn’t get it. But once he did understand, he can actually be this proactive.
To tell the truth, Mrs Gu was really a bit worried and afraid that Gu Yu Cheng was also like a rash kid who didn’t know how to take things seriously.
The corner of Gu Yu Cheng’s eyes twitched slightly, and he swept a glance at Yu Jing when Gu Yu Cheng heard what Mrs Gu had said.
“I understand.” Gu Yu Cheng said in a deep voice.
“Also,” Gu Yu Cheng’s eyebrows rose and added, “If I really did something, do you think I will return home at this time?”
“I’m just concerned about you two.” She glared at Gu Yu Cheng and continued, “But I won’t say anything more since you know that yourself, so that you wouldn’t find me annoying if I say too much.”
“Gu Yu Cheng.” As she thought of something, she continued, “Invite Rui Rui over to our house for a meal sometime in the next few days, okay? ”
Although Mrs Gu had invited Su Rui to her home several times before, it was just that an elder invited a younger generation to the house as a guest.
However, if it was Gu Yu Cheng who brought Su Rui to the house, then the meaning will be totally different.
And it just so happens that Gu Yu Cheng’s father is returning back as well.
“It’s not possible.” Gu Yu Cheng frowned slightly and said when he heard what Mrs Gu said.
Why is it not possible again?
When Mrs Gu heard that, she was anxious in her heart and was about to ask. But then, she heard Gu Yu Cheng say, “She has an exam this week.”
As for tomorrow, he has other plans.
……
On the next day, when Su Rui had finished class, Gu Yu Cheng was already waiting at the university’s history museum.
“Does this count as skiving off?” Su Rui blinked and asked deliberately as she looked at Gu Yu Cheng.
Gu Yu Cheng had a soft chuckle and helped Su Rui open the door for the passenger seat for Su Rui.
“Get in the car.”
“Where are we going?”
“Gu Company.”
“To let you have a better understanding of Gu company’s business operation and work environment, before you decide on whether or not to go to Gu Company for an internship” he added.
Su Rui was slightly stunned. Then, she couldn’t control and softly laughed.
Chairman Gu’s plan was exceptionally well planned out.
But, since she did not have classes in the afternoon, it would be nice to visit Gu Company to look around and learn.
