Chapter 267 – One Must Jump to Action When the Time Is Right (1)
Gu Shishi had to flip through the system’s fondness log and to confirm that all of these individuals belonged to Old Mrs. Chen’s grandma group!
Such amazing combat effectiveness!
She felt a chill on the back of her neck.
From teens to 60~70 years old, a woman’s fondness for pretty and handsome man and their combat effectiveness in their pursuit of an outstanding mate knows no ends!
She felt alarmed all of a sudden.
How many people would go after Boss Huo whose look could rival that of a little fresh meat and have an enormous wealth once his reputation was cleared?
Luo Pingting would be but one of the many!
Gu Shishi: I need to work harder on this!
“So, little Shishi, what do you say? You want to be my granddaughter just like Keke?”
And that was how Old Mrs. Chen finally reached out her evil claw at the ink painting guru of her era.
She wouldn’t mind a dozen of granddaughters like that!
Gu Shishi nodded forcefully. “Yes, of course! Be aggressive when the time calls for it!”
The boss was hers!
Nobody could take him away from her!
With all these competitions, she needed to take the spot next to him before anyone else!
She needed to have a good talk with the boss when she got home today!
He was not allowed to have lunch just with any random girls!
“Haha, okay, okay.” Old Mrs. Chen was so happy that she couldn’t keep her mouth shut. “And, don’t worry, little Shishi. If you want to keep your identity a secret, grandma would not drag you down. I promise I won’t tell anyone.
“And I will still pay for your paintings in the future. I won’t just take them for granted. Not only that. Grandma will refer businesses to you going forward. Cheng and He are as rich as your grandma, we’ll take all of their money to be your dowry!”
Gu Shishi, “?”
“Here, here, this crab suimai is amazing. Try one!”
“Keke, quickly, scoop some soup out for your big sister Shishi.”
Chen Kexin, “……”
Old Mrs Chen: Hehe, I’ve just gained another granddaughter that I can show off with.
Gu Shishi: Never will I space out in front of someone else again.
In the lobby outside, Luo Pingting went on and on for a while and finally noticed that there was something wrong with the atmosphere.
Not only was there not a fond look on the man sitting in front of her, he didn’t even have a normal look on him.
He was chillingly cold.
Luo Pingting started feeling more and more embarrassed.
She was just about to change the subject to Huo ChuChu in order to shrink the distance between herself and Huo Sishen, who used to love nothing more than his own sister.
Nevertheless, as soon as she said “Chuchu”, she saw that Huo Sishen had already frowned and tossed the menu onto the table.
She had a bad feeling. But before she could try to save the situation, a misfortunate event took place out of the blue!
With a loud “BANG!”, the server that was walking past them pilled an entire bowl of honey braised pork feet all over her.
“OW!”
Luo Pingting let out a loud scream!
Her face turned red and black.
“I’m sorry. I’m so sorry!”
The server apologized immediately and quickly grabbed the tissue on top of the table to help her clean herself.
In her frantic state, she knocked over the soda with ice on the right.
The summer was already over and it was fall. Once they were indoor, for the sake of looking pretty, Luo Pingting only had on a thin dress with her beautiful calves exposed.
Now, when all the ice fell on her, the chill reached straight to her spine and her core!
“What was wrong with you?!”
Luo Pingting was about to lose her mind!
She reached out and pushed the clumsy server aside.
In a little while, when she stood up, she turned pale immediately.
Baiweiju’s business was very good.
But the rush hour had already passed and there were very few people walking around. Most of them were sitting down, dining.
There was nobody around this server at all.
Nobody bumped into her, nobody tripped her… so how did she just fall on flat ground and spilled an entire bowl of pork feet onto her?
Luo Pingting even saw a male server next to them with two plates of food in his hands anda steamer in between the two walking fast and steady to deliver the dishes to the table next to them.
But this one in front of her… couldn’t even hold onto one dish!
And she even spilled the beverage after that!
Ruining her new 50,000-yuan dress!
