"What's wrong?"

In the car, Gu Yu Cheng's brows drew together and asked. Gu Yu Cheng gazed at Su Rui, who was spacing out as she leaned against the window.

"Nothing." Su Rui was slightly stunned and replied softly.

She was just deeply reflecting on herself.

She clearly said that she would return home before 3 o'clock. Yet, even now, Su Rui didn't understand how she agreed to Gu Yu Cheng to head to Chen's house directly before 6.30 pm.

Where was her persistence? Where are her principles?!

Su Rui's forehead furrowed slightly as she rebuked herself.

Looking at Su Rui's knitted eyebrows, Gu Yu Cheng's expression slightly moved and inwardly thought that Su Rui was probably thinking about the banquet.

"Don't worry, you won't be late." Gu Yu Cheng said. His tone was reassuring and calm.

But.

It wasn't about being late or not.

At the moment, she has not done her makeup or changed into an evening gown for the banquet.

Su Rui sent a WeChat message to Liu Yue at 3 o'clock stating that she would head to the banquet directly. Until now, Su Rui didn't dare to take out her mobile phone to check the contents of her mother's reply.

"En, I know but it's not about that," Su Rui said as she tried to maintain a natural expression to smile at Gu Yu Cheng.

Since she dug her own pit, she has to stay (feign) calm.

"Then, what are you thinking about?" Gu Yu Cheng questioned again.

"Nothing...'

"Uh, Gu Yu Cheng."

"Hm?"

"Let me ask you a question."

Although it's to change the topic, Su Rui suddenly remembered that there was a problem that she wanted to consult with Gu Yu Cheng.

Hearing this, Gu Yu Cheng's eyes were still calm but the hands that were holding onto the steering wheel tightened its grip.

"Go ahead."

Su Rui organized her question and asked, "Since I'm going to be in my junior year in university, do you think it's necessary for me to join the student union or societies?"

Because of the question the young female underclassman[1] had asked, Su Rui was also concerned about this. There were many societies in University B and there were many participants.

Don't merely look at Liu Ling who seemed to have nothing to do all day. She is actually the vice president of the external relations department.

If she doesn't participate in societies, activities and so on, it would feel like she is pretentiously attending a university.

But for a third-year upperclassman like her to join a society or group and be a cute newbie,[2] it feels somewhat weird.

Su Rui has been hesitant because of this issue.

The first person she thought to consult was Gu Yu Cheng.

After all, other than being the Chairman of the Gu Company, Gu Yu Cheng was also her senior who had graduated.

Besides, if she remembered correctly, the last time she looked up the resume of a certain Gu on some encyclopedia[3], he seemed to have been the student president for two terms, as well as the honorary president for one year?
