Chapter 107: And she had the audacity to spill the red wine on Miss Gu. Tsk.
After Huo Sishen had returned to his study, Siyi quickly knocked and walked inside.
“Boss ,we had learned something regarding the incident when Miss Gu was almost hit by the chandelier. All of our lights in the mansion are inspected daily by specific personnel. But the one responsible for the light in the hallway resigned suddenly a week ago.”
Having said that, Siyi’s pitch black face looked gloomy.
“The employee in question said that he needed to go back home with his wife, yet we’ve found evidence of him taking off on a plane three days ago.
“He didn’t go back home; he left the country.”
Siyi’s head lowered as he carried on talking.
“There was an unusual deposit of $1,000,000 into his account a week ago. The source of the income was from a venture capital company.”
Huo Sishen looked up with his black eyes.
His cold look was enough to make even Siyi shudder.
Siyi willed himself to carry on.
“We haven’t yet figured out who was behind the company.
“I have sent someone to contact the resigned employee already….”
SNAP!
Before he was done talking, the pen inside Huo Sishen’s hand was broken into two halves.
“I will give you three days’ time.”
A storm roiled inside his black eyes.
His voice was cold and deep.
“I don’t care who it was. If they dare to take actions on my territory, there’s a price to be paid.”
Siyi shuddered again. “Yes, Sir!”
The chandelier that fell was not an accident; someone caused it purposefully.
It was a malicious effort to cause an accident, and the intention was to throw Huo Sishen back into the center of rumor that he brought others back luck, so he’d be ostracized once again.
Regardless of whether the chandelier had hit anyone, it would cause panic among those within the mansion..
“In addition, halt all cooperation with the Li’s.” Sitting on his chair, Huo Sishen rotated his watch. His look was sharp and vicious. “Go and contact the other suppliers.”
Siyi was stunned. “The Li’s of Tong Wah?”
“Send a gift to them by mail tomorrow.” A cold and cruel smile appeared on the corners of Huo Sishen’s mouth. “Send them my bottle of ‘85 red wine.”
“Yes, Boss!” replied Siyi right away.
It was until he had left the study before Siyi dared to show a complicated look.
The Li’s of Tong Wah relied on Huo Sishen’s company for 45% of their revenue.
Halting the cooperation between them meant cutting off half of their source of income!
The girl in red today, who chased behind Miss Gu and shouted at her, was the Li’s Third Young Miss.
She probably never would have imagined that just a simple thing that she said would have ruffled the boss’s feathers so. He hated nothing more than being said that he brought bad luck to others…
And she had the audacity to spill the red wine on Miss Gu. Tsk.
Siyi shook his head with compassion before he walked down into the basement cellar.

After lunch, Gu Shishi yawned and returned to her own room. It was almost 2 p.m. in the afternoon.
She changed and hopped straight into her new wooden bathtub!
The bathtub with its primitive wooden smell circulated hot water at the perfect temperature, as well as having pulsating massage jets. Lying inside of it, Gu Shishi couldn’t be any happier.
All in all, this had been a very fruitful day.
The few old ladies from the prominent families had fairly sizable speaking power among the upper-class circle. Gaining their fondness was a very important first step for her entering into the upper-class circle.
Even though she had conquered them with her alias as the “Guru”, when the time was right, she could drop the alias and reveal herself.
And gain a big round of fondness!
“Oh right, the system must have completed its update by now!”
Gu Shishi’s eyes beamed.
