I transmigrated into a book, becoming a money-grubbing relative in the female lead's family.
My money-grubbing mother, through moral manipulation, made me join the male lead's company...
Since Gu Liji started coming to work on Monday, he has been the one working every day.
After the boss changed, the atmosphere in the whole company visibly became lazy again. Maybe this is because the kind of boss you have determines the kind of company you get.
The orderly atmosphere that Gu Rongqi had previously created had vanished. Since it wasn't him at the company, Cheng Qicai felt more relaxed.
If Gu Rongqi were to come again, she would probably feel more pressure coming to this job than she does in a whole month.
However, Gu Rongqi must have told Gu Liji that she was never stopped by Gu Liji to say anything inexplicable again after that.
She had originally planned to go to Ren Baiping's place this week to retrieve her small ceramic item, but he was always busy.
For two consecutive weeks, if Yun Rucheng hadn't said the same thing, she would have really worried that he actually minded last time and was just making an excuse to refuse her.
Ren Baiping didn't have time, but Yun Su Ni invited her to her house to play, saying she wanted to familiarize herself with the way.
After Yun Suni and Lu Qi moved, she hadn't been to their new home yet; she had only heard that it was a single-story house they bought near the company.
Following the address given by Yun Suni, Cheng Qicai arrived at her home. The style of Yun Suni's place was very similar to that of her previous rented apartment, with gentle Morandi colors. It was probably specially decorated by Lu Qi and the others according to the previous style.
"Sister! Brother Lu!" Cheng Qicai called out as she saw the two of them come to open the door, and handed them the gifts she was holding.
"What is this?" Yun Suni asked in confusion.
"Congratulations on moving!" Cheng Qicai exclaimed.
"You're too kind!" Yun Suni said reproachfully.
"It should be there." Cheng Qicai looked around curiously. The room was very large, seemingly several hundred square meters, but apart from Lu Qi and Yun Suni, there was no one else inside.
"Sister, didn't you hire a housekeeper?" Cheng Qicai asked curiously.
"No, Lu Qi and I are both busy and don't like having so many people at home, so we hired a part-time housekeeper." Yun Suni said as she poured her some water and took out some fruit from the kitchen to wash for her.
Cheng Qicai knew that Yun Su Ni was busy with not only her wedding but also her work during this period.
Cheng Qicai didn't really understand what major domestic award her project had won last time, but anyway, these two busy things together kept her quite occupied.
Cheng Qicai then asked, "So, how's your wedding going?"
"You'll have to ask your brother Lu about that; he handled the whole thing."
Upon hearing her words, Cheng Qicai looked towards Lu Qi and noticed that he was indeed thinner than before.
It seems that marriage is quite devastating.
"Brother Lu, are you alright? You look like you've lost a lot of weight," Cheng Qicai asked with concern.
"It's nothing, I've just been a bit busy lately," Lu Qi replied. "By the way, what's your thought about the question I asked you last time?"
Cheng Qicai glanced at Yun Suni. Lu Qi knew what she meant and said, "It's okay. I talked to Suni about this later."
Yun Su Ni nodded gently beside her.
Unexpectedly, Lu Qi suddenly asked this question, so she shared her still somewhat immature idea: "I want to open a supermarket, firstly..."
Lu Qi raised his hand: "Why would you want to open a supermarket?"
“I think my personality is suited to opening a supermarket, and I have enough capital to start one,” Cheng Qicai explained.
Lu Qi looked her up and down seriously, his sharp gaze seeming to see right through her. Under his gaze, Cheng Qicai fidgeted nervously with her hands.
Lu Qi didn't intend to listen to what Cheng Qicai had to say next, and said directly, "You should make sure you're sure of your thoughts, don't just give me something to brush me off."
Hearing Lu Qi say this, Cheng Qicai felt a little ashamed. She said with distress, "But I really don't know what to do."
She studied humanities in school, and now she needs skills to find a job, let alone start her own business.
"Don't rush, Qi Cai. You can think about what you really like, and then think in that direction," Yun Su Ni comforted her. She secretly glared at Lu Qi, then smiled and said, "It's okay, Lu Qi is just asking today, no rush."
“Yes,” Lu Qi nodded, “You can take your time to think about it. What I said will always hold true.”
"Thank you, Brother Lu!" Lu Qi's words were undoubtedly giving her another chance.
Cheng Qicai knew that if she didn't think things through this time and give Lu Qi a plan that would satisfy him, she would really miss this opportunity.
Moreover, even without Lu Qi giving her this opportunity, Gu Liji's company wouldn't have been where she could stay for long.
Starting a business or finding a job—these two options are already obvious.
She felt that she would be letting down such a good opportunity if she didn't seize it, given the perfect timing, location, and people.
Once you miss it, it's truly gone.
Seeing Cheng Qicai's expression, Lu Qi kindly said, "Actually, you don't need to think so much. Just like Su Ni said, find something you like. Because you don't have much ambition to support you in a field that's not suitable for you. Even if you succeed in your career, you will be very unhappy. So you can only go further if you choose your interests as your core."
After listening to Lu Qi's analysis, Cheng Qicai fell silent.
"Qicai, have some fruit." Seeing that Cheng Qicai was in low spirits, Yun Suni pushed the washed grapes towards her.
"Okay, sure." Cheng Qicai nodded absentmindedly.
"By the way, what do you want to eat later? I'll go prepare the dishes in a bit."
"Stir-fried pork with chili peppers?"
"good."
Not wanting to talk about starting a business, Yun Suni changed the subject, saying, "By the way, I heard from my dad that Ren Baiping told him he wanted to go abroad for joint training, you guys..."
