Chapter 149: Why did she ask Siyi to try her cooking instead of him? (1)

The two brothers exchanged a look before they finally processed a very shocking truth.

Boss Huo purposefully waited till the chef was gone before he sent Butler Lin to fetch the stock, bypassing even Siyi.

And the stock was the same as the one that Siyi had tested, made by Miss Gu.

Meaning, their boss stealthily drank the soup made by Miss Gu.

The two brothers looked at each other and their mouths dropped open.

“That means, Miss Gu asked you instead of the boss to try her soup and the boss saw it and was unhappy about it,” Sier concluded.

“Which was why he sent someone to fetch it quietly after you and Miss Gu had departed.”

Siyi rolled his eyes, “Boy, oh, boy. Our boss… is such a tsundere…”

Sier patted him on his shoulder. “Good luck, bro.”

Siyi, “Huh?”

“Miss Gu seems pretty nice to you. Teheehee.” Sier laughed.

Siyi, “!!!”

The boss was jealous of him…. ?!

Inside the study at the same time.

Huo Sishen’s cold eyes landed on the bowl of soup.

The glow from the computer screen made his handsome face seem warmer than usual, but it also made the darkness and coldness in his eyes stand out even more.

After a long while, he finally picked up a spoon and scooped out a spoonful of thick and aromatic soup.

And placed it in his mouth.

He pursed his lips. His eyes brightened for a bit before the light quickly died down again.

This soup… tasted like the ones made by the aunty who had taken care of him when he was a child.

Without formal culinary training and used to normal home cooking, even the Western style mushroom soup that she made has a slight touch of the taste of Chinese broth in it.

Very indescribably.

But… not bad to the taste.

It even has a slight warmth to it that slipped into his mouth and rolled into his stomach. All of his limbs and down to every hair was washed over by a sense of comfort…

Nothing professional about it, but filled with warmth.

But she gave her first bowl to Siyi.

Huo Sishen squinted.

His grip on the spoon tightened.

To think that she had been sending him red packets everyday and shamelessly asked him to “send her daily gifts and red packets as her husband”… and then?

That woman! That brainless woman!

Why did she ask Siyi to try her cooking instead of him?

Did Siyi and him like the same thing?

Huo Sishen tossed down the spoon heavily.

Disgruntledness was written all over his face.

He stood up, then stopped.

He looked at the bowl of soup with displeasure. But then, he downed the entire bowl of soup in two to three gulps!

……

Gu Shishi noticed that her system message mailbox had exploded when she woke up the next morning.

There were rows of rows of notifications.

She almost thought the system had glitched.

She pulled up the system log.

At around midnight last night, the boss’s fondness toward her went up 1%, then down 2%, then up 3%, then down 1%…. back and forth for dozens of times at the very minimum.

“What was going on?”

The boss… what was he doing in the middle of the night?

Gu Shishi laid her palm over her forehead and couldn’t figure it out.

Did she do anything yesterday that would make him think about her in the middle of the night?

“Did he hang the ‘Red Mountains’ up in his room and that he was appreciating it last night?”

That idea merely flashed through her mind before she shook her head and dismissed it.

That didn’t make sense. If he was looking at her painting, wouldn’t his fondness increase steadily instead? It wouldn’t explain how it went up and down and up and down.

Gu Shishi had a very confused look. Before she had the system, she felt that being genuine to others was sufficient.

She never knew how complicated people could be, especially the boss that she needed to take down!
