Nevertheless, the more she tried to cover it up, the more obvious it was that she was trying to cover something up.
Huo Sishen could see through her right away.
“Mmm.”
He decided to stop asking.
Recalling what he had overheard outside of her door earlier, his look that was lingering on her pink delicate face became more profound.
His mother had a very strong personality and would never back down on anything.
Even if she was wrong, she would always place the blame with someone else.
His brother, on the other hand, looked smart but was not a responsible individual.
Whenever he run into problems, he would pre-emptively and irresponsibly push the responsibilities over for someone else to clean up after him.
Her, on the other hand, looked so small and soft, her shoulder narrow and her waist slender.
Nevertheless, she tried stumbling close to him every time and to solve his problems for him.
A small body.
But an immense courage.
She had her own ideas but she would also take a step back for him.
Huo Sishen’s cold and stern look softened in that instant. “What is it that you want to do? YOu can tell me.”
“Hmm?”
Gu Shishi’s heart was still throbbing frantically when the man placed his warm palm on the back of her head.
The man’s palm, that was getting warmer and warmer, moved all the way to her delicate neck…
That made her heart beat irregularity, smoke coming out of her throat and her brain stopped working…
“What do you want to do? What do you want?”
He would do his best to make them happen.
Anything.
Any time.
An obvious warmth could be detected in his deep and cold eyes that were lowered.
Gu Shishi blinked. “Really?”
She was only too happy to change the subject.
“Anything?”
Huo Sishen pursed his thin lips. “Speak.”
Gu Shishi quickly ran over and picked up the cellphone that she had tossed away earlier.
She tapped on the screen a few times.
“Darling. The game on Tmall (lit. Sky Cat). Help me out here.”
Huo Sishen’s thin lips that he had just pursed froze immediately.
“Aye. Alternatively, you can just hand me the phone and I can do it myself.”
Gu Shishi blinked. It wasn’t difficult to figure that the boss wouldn’t play games like that.
Huo Sishen, “… …”
His people had reported to him all the Double-11 (November 11) promotions from different companies.
Even if she won the game, they were just about a few yuan here.
He had no idea that his wife needed to participate in Double-11 promotions like this.
“Oh boy. You are only at LV 1.”
Gu Shishi was gravely disappointed after she got ahold of his cellphone.
“Aye. You don’t even have enough in-game currency. How are you supposed to help me like that…”
There were resentment and disappointment in her voice.
Huo Sishen’s lips twitched.
He never shopped online. How would he have any in-game currency?
Besides, he needed to register in order to check out his competitors so he wasn’t a new user either.
“Never mind.”
Gu Shishi returned the cellphone back to him regretfully.
It was her mistake. What made her think that an elite businessman could help her out on Tmall??
Aye.
There were only Aunty Lin and a few young maids at home who’d play this game with her.
Everybody needed to work on their own building everyday and could only do it six times a day.
If she was to ask others to help her out, they wouldn’t have enough for themselves!
Toward the end, she felt bad and would only trade her own for their assistance.
But… she kept on losing.
It was the fourth day already and she had only had one win.
Dang!
Huo Sishen couldn’t help but said to her, “Have Siyi and the others share some of theirs with you.”
Her disappointment was almost palpable.
Gu Shishi shook her hand. “That won’t work. I am sure they have never leveled up their kitten either. They could only offer me level 1 help. That won’t do much for me.”
The ones who were advanced in levels needed to work on their own buildings.
The ones who didn’t work on their buildings, their levels were too low to be of any help.
Oh! This promotional activity was such a scam!
