Peninsula: My mentor Kim Tae-yeon

After completing her first day of training and vocal practice, Su Xia returned home, changed into formal attire, and set off for work with her briefcase filled with documents.

On the subway, Kim Tae-yeon floated above the carriage, surveying each passenger in the car.

The subway around 8 a.m. is at its most bustling with aura, with everyone exuding the same indifference as Kapibala.

It's good to be alive, and it's okay to die too.

That's the despondency of "I can't stand this crappy class even for a day," a sense of world-weariness that even the best actor can't portray.

Although Su Xia was also an office worker and wore the same formal attire, he appeared much more lively than these "Kapibala" (a derogatory term for office workers).

Even if no one speaks, the feeling of being alive and the feeling of being on the verge of death are completely different.

There are generally only two reasons why someone might be on the subway at this time.

First, newcomers who have just entered society and haven't yet experienced the harsh realities of life.

Second, the playboys who experience life.

In response, the barely deceased "Kapibala" merely glanced at Su Xia before falling into a deep sleep.

Sleepy!

Su Xia looked up at Kim Tae-yeon and gestured for her to come over.

Kim Tae-yeon floated over curiously and looked at Su Xia's phone screen, which displayed various hairstyles. Was she asking Su Xia to help her choose one?

Without much hesitation, Kim Tae-yeon chose a hairstyle called "micro-curl texture perm".

"This hairstyle looks good and is also easy to maintain."

Su Xia pointed to the comma-shaped bangs next to her.

"This won't work. This requires a professional to handle. I know how, but I can't help without you," Kim Tae-yeon explained from the side.

Su Xia nodded. "Okay, this is it. I'll go to the hair salon after get off work."

……

Su Xia's law firm is located in Quanshan District, which is also the core area of ​​Xuzhou. Although it is not large, the advantage is that there are not many strict requirements, and her colleagues take good care of intern lawyers like Su Xia.

Kim Tae-yeon followed behind Su Xia, watching him quickly get into work mode at his workstation. She didn't disturb him, but instead wandered around on her own.

She couldn't leave Su Xia's vicinity by more than five meters, but the five-meter range of movement did give her some room to stretch out.

Kim Tae-yeon had been secretly observing Su Xia for over a year, ever since Su Xia came to this law firm at the beginning of the year.

I have gained a clearer understanding of the seemingly glamorous profession of law.

Although trainee lawyers are called trainees, they are actually members of the legal profession.

In law firms, the "intern" in the general sense is called a trainee, so Su Xia's usual work is mostly organizing case files and writing documents. As for printing documents, cleaning, and running errands, those are the trainees' jobs.

Trainee lawyers usually do this kind of work at large law firms because large law firms don't need interns at all. Trainee lawyers are scrambling to get in, and since they are both laborers, trainee lawyers are naturally more useful than interns.

On the contrary, the small and medium-sized law firms where Su Xia works have more interns.

Most of them were given to the lawyers by their relatives and friends, and a small number were law students.

Kim Tae-yeon wandered around for a while before stopping behind a partner lawyer with a private office not far from Su Xia.

Why?

She was slacking off while practicing musical notes.

Kim Tae-yeon had nothing to do, so she joined in the video streaming.

While organizing the files, Su Xia suddenly looked up, glanced at the nowhere-where Kim Tae-yeon, and secretly took out her phone.

Open ChatGPT and search for "How to choose a birthday gift for a 35-year-old woman".

Upon seeing the answer provided by ChatGPT, Su Xia's expression froze.

1. Cosmetics from major international brands that prevent collagen loss.

2. Home beauty devices.

3. Pearl necklaces and rings.

4. Favorite concert tickets...

Su Xia quietly added, "A gift that doesn't cost money."

damned!

Don't poor people deliver gifts?

The answer provided now is free, but it's not very reliable.

Write a letter by hand to express your feelings for each other...

Should I write about her spying on me for over a year?

A photo album to record the special moments shared by the two of you...

We've only known each other for a day.

Exclusive companionship throughout the day, providing a life of pure companionship...

Thanks for the invitation; I've been forced to accompany you for a long time now.

What terrible AI.

I hereby declare that you will not gain my approval!

"Su Xia!" A voice interrupted Su Xia's thoughts. She looked up and saw a female lawyer, also dressed in formal attire, walking quickly towards her.

"Sister Yun."

The female lawyer placed the case file in her hand in front of Su Xia.

"I have a hearing at the Yunlong Court at 10 o'clock. I've prepared these materials. Could you review them for me again? Once you're done, give them to Haotian and have him deliver them to the Yunlong Court at the Intermediate Court."

"Did you tell Haotian?" Su Xia asked, glancing at the file.

Sun Haotian, one of the trainees, is a well-known second-generation rich kid in the institute. He drives around in an Audi A7 all day long. Everyone in the institute likes to ask him for favors because he likes to drive around and has his own car. He is happy to do so.

"I already said, just give it to him after you've reviewed it."

"OK."

Sister Yun nodded and was about to leave when Su Xia called her back.

"Sister Yun, one of my teachers has a birthday coming up, and I don't know what to get her. You're a woman too, could you give me some suggestions?"

Li Yun paused, a look of interest appearing in her eyes.

"Female teacher? How old?"

Thirty-five years old.

"Hmm... I'll send some cosmetics instead," Li Yun said after thinking for a moment.

"I have no money."

The newly graduated graduate student was dirt poor.

"Hmm... then how about writing a thank-you note? Isn't he your teacher?"

"I'm asking you a pointless question." Su Xia looked at the other person speechlessly. "You should hurry up and go to court."

Li Yun couldn't help but laugh.

"I'm leaving." He waved and quickly walked away.

Su Xia rubbed her head in frustration.

What kind of gift is this?

Unbeknownst to Su Xia, Kim Tae-yeon had already silently appeared behind him when Li Yun found him.

Seeing Su Xia looking troubled at her workstation, Kim Tae-yeon smiled.

Soon, the day was over.

At 5:30 pm, Su Xia clocked out and ran away on time.

Overtime is the norm for lawyers, but for intern lawyers like Su Xia who have no cases or clients, it is quite common to leave work on time after completing the tasks assigned by their supervising lawyer.

"Why didn't you have dinner with your colleagues?" Kim Tae-yeon asked when she saw that Su Xia had declined the dinner invitations from the other intern lawyers.

"I don't want to drink. I'm a future singer; I need to protect my voice!"

Kim Tae-yeon looked at Su Xia with amusement. So, she's already taken out a loan?

"Here, take this." Su Xia took out a piece of A4 paper with a corner torn off from her pocket, on which three words were written.

Wish coupon.
