Chapter 275: “Let’s get married.” (3)
[The purpose of the Wife of Prominent Family System was to nurture well-rounded prominent wives in all the virtues: moral fortitude, intellect, physical strength, beauty and hard-working.]
[Please choose one of the following:]
[1. Love before marriage.]
[2. Marriage before love.]
“Oh boy, why do you make it sound like I have control over the boss?”
“Am I supposed to propose to him as well?”
Gu Shishi was like a piece of white paper when it came to romance.
But, she at least knew that it was much easier for a girl to pursue a man than the other way round. And that was why she said what she had said when she arrived home tonight.
That being said, she was still very conservative and would not go as far as to propose to a man.
Not even the system could make her do that!
“I am not going to ask. If we are to get married, he’ll be the one proposing!”
Gu Shishi was very firm on that.
[Beep! Option 2 chosen successfully!]
Gu Shishi’s eyes widened.
Hey! She was just grumbling, alright!
[Marriage before love — main mission 1 initiated!]
[A smart woman never needs to profess her love. Just a look from her will be sufficient for a man to feel the fire of love and lose control of himself!]
[Requirement for the mission: Look at him for 60 seconds. No matter what he is doing, you will continue to look squarely at him and make him propose to you in the heat of the moment!]
[Reward: If you love her you will hug her skill.]
Gu Shishi was stunned.
What the heck kind of mission was this?
Was it sure that her eyes wouldn’t cramp up?
Look at him for one minute would make him propose? Why did it sound like she was putting a curse on him or something?
But this reward. It wasn’t fragments; it was the entire skill?
[This is a critical mission.]
[Fondness of the Male Lead will remain at LV 4 if this mission cannot be completed.]
Wah!
Gu Shishi was about to pull all of her hair out.
If she couldn’t level up, that meant her maximum life would always remain at one month!
Okay.
It is what it is!
Even though this mission sounded silly and very difficult to accomplish, but it wasn’t like she had any other options.
She immediately tossed down his paintbrush and stomped out of her room.
It was almost dinner time and Huo Sishen was, as usual, inside of his study.
Gu Shishi walked around the living room and dining room. When she didn’t see anyone there, she went to knock on the study’s door.
“C’mon in.”
The deep voice sounded sexy in the night time.
Gu Shishi, with her “ulterior motive” couldn’t help but have some naughty thoughts.
She bit her lip and pushed open the door.
She looked at the man who was sitting calmly and properly behind the desk with her big and limpid eyes that she also had the pitiful effect applied from the system.
Staring… staring… no blinking… staring…
Huo Sishen frowned after he heard the door being opened.
“What is it?”
Siyi had just got done reporting the progress report to him. Why did he return right away?
When he looked up, he suddenly found himself looking unexpectedly into the girl’s limpid eyes.
His pen froze over the piece of paper in front of him.
The last part of his signature had lost its form.
The girl’s look was… filled with an indescribable longing. They looked as though they were searching for hope and brightness in the dark.
Her Pikachu sleepwear made her look even more petite, like a child asking to be held.
She needed him.
He immediately recalled the words from Qin Ruhai.
He suddenly experienced difficult in breathing.
He lowered his eyes and she lowered hers with him.
He looked up and she looked up with him.
Like duckweeds, floating, but her look followed him.
Huo Sishen’s chin tightened.
Gu Shishi, on the other hand, felt that her eyes were starting to feel sore from the staring.
Oh dang! Oh dang! She was screaming loudly inside of herself!
There was a very clear countdown in front of her.
49, 48… 32, 31… 10, …
Keep it up!
Persistency is the trick!
She screamed to herself in her mind!
Oh boy, she had been staring for so long that tears were rolling down her cheeks!
This doggone system! Making such a heartless request!
All Huo Sishen saw was the girl looking at him, her eyes began to turn red and tears were swelling up in them. He felt a shock to his chest.
His hoarse voice escaped his lips involuntarily.
“Let’s get married.”
Gu Shishi, “……!”
Oh boy, the curse really worked!
