Gu Shishi was both hurting and happy at the same time.
One’s asset was only determined by how daring they were.
She was never in shortage of businesses.
She has always had a backlog of orders.
That being said, creating bowls was different from painting.
The ladder could be fame that would last for generations. The former… truth be told, placing it in the hand of a 3-year-old, if it was broken all one would get was a loud noise.
Only a rich person would ask a guru to draw on clay.
They would feel bad even when they were broken.
As Gu Shishi thought about it, she knew that was not a transaction that would require inspirations.
All she needed to do was some items that would appeal to kids.
[That’s not a problem. I can free up some time in the morning this coming weekend.]
[Just have everything ready and send me your address.]
Old Mrs. Chen was happy immediately.
[Happy Chubster: Okay! Okay! We will be waiting for you, Master!]
Gu Shishi’s lips twitched.
Why did she feel that something was off?
A few seconds later, MeowMeow started texting her madly.
[MeowMeow: You are coming to my place?! Meow meow meow?!]
[MeowMeow: Grandma said you will be here next Sunday?]
[MeowMeow: You are ready to expose your identity?!]
[MeowMeow: Noooooo. Why didn’t you give me a heads-up first?!]
[MeowMeow: Grandma thinks that you are at least 60 years old, just two years older than her!]
Gu Shishi, “……?”
Gu Shishi was dumbfounded.
She didn’t understand how going to draw on clay turned into revealing her identity.
And MeowMeow’s next sentence answered her question for her.
[MeowMeow: My grandmother loves these things. We have a pottery workshop behind our house.]
Gu Shishi, “……”
That was all but a misunderstanding!
She could figure out the mentality of rich people!
She clarified her misunderstanding with Chen Kexin and the two started coming up with ideas.
Finally, the two of them agreed on that the guru did not want to show her face or to socialize. As such, she would not be going to paint in the Chen’s courtyard.
They’d have Old Mrs. Chen arrange for a different location.
Nevertheless, a short while later…
[MeowMeow: My grand… um… she didn’t say anything but bought you a gift.]
She sent over a picture with no filter applied.
It was an entire set of rosewood paintbrushes!
The gift that Gu Shishi wanted the most!
Good paintbrushes have good quality hair and smooth handle. They worked extremely well in one’s hand no matter how they were used.
She never could pull the plug and bought a set for herself!
[MeowMeow: Grandma even turned down her afternoon tea gather this weekend… maybe you should come?]
Gu Shishi didn’t want to reveal herself just yet.
But, looking at the set of paintbrushes. It was extremely tempting.
Her identity would be revealed sooner or later anyway?
[MeowMeow, what do you think will be the odds of your grandmother recognizing me if I cover up my face?]
[MeowMeow: ……]
In the study that was a few doors down from Gu Shishi.
The atmosphere was so stiff that the air might as well had been solidified.
“What did you just say?”
Qin Ruhai looked at the man whose was looking at him with a gloomy look.
“Did you just ask me what I have prepared as a gift for a girl for Thanksgiving this year?”
Oy!
Hell has frozen over.
The poker-faced, emotion-free Huo Sishen was now concerned about what a boy was getting a girl as a gift?
Qin Ruhai only wished he could pull out his cellphone right away and announce his new finding in his melon-eating chat group.
But, looking at the man who didn’t look too happy, he thought better of it.
And decided against it.
“You should put more thought into it if this is your first gift.”
Qin Ruhai felt that he saw pigs flying.
Huo Sishen was finally enlightened and knew to consult someone as experienced in these matters as himself.
“Well, I am glad you’ve turned to me for help. I have given a girl my handmade diary back when I was in high school.
“Oh boy. She was so touched that she became my girlfriend immediately!”
