Out of the blue, right when she was about to pass the living room, a low and sandy voice that sounded from afar came coldly.
“Come over here.”
Gu Shishi jumped and almost dropped down onto her knees.
With a groan, she hugged her own weak and helpless self.
A screeching sound like some sharp instrument was dragged across a glass surface gave her goosebumps!
Gu Shishi wanted to take a step back to turn around and run away.
But, a cold hand suddenly grabbed onto her wrist!
“Ow!” Gu Shishi couldn’t help but scream out loud.
“Shut up!” Came the coarse voice again.
Gu Shishi shuddered and look in the direction of the voice with her teeth gritted. After a short while, she asked in a shaky voice, “Bo… boss?”
Under the dim light, she was finally able to see a dark shadow sitting on the couch next to her.
Deep and cold eyes looked straight at her, making her shuddered again.
Was that Huo Sishen?
Gu Shishi gulped.
Yet, the other person didn’t move, or say anything.
The living room was ridiculously quiet.
Gu Shishi wanted to cry.
Shivering, she fished out her cell phone and turn on the flashlight and aimed the beam of light decisively toward the dark shadow on the couch that she couldn’t make out.
A beam of strong light landed on the man on the couch.
He had on a blue robe with a sash tied loosely around his waist. As though he was being very impatient, his top was not straightened out and she could see a patch of his wheat color skin along with a hint of his defined muscles.
Gu Shishi pursed her lips, and her hands shuddered.
Her sight followed the light up and quickly saw a stone-cold and handsome face.
The chilly black eyes squinted into a line from the bright light; the disgruntledness in them looked like a thousand knives that wanted to have her killed in the next instant.
“Oh, ha ha ha…” Gu Shishi gulped and moved her cellphone away as she laughed dryly.
“Boss, oh, I mean, Mr. Huo. It’s you… you are still up… ha ha.”
Huo Sishen squinted his eyes.
Gu Shishi wanted to wave at him and realized that he was still gripping onto her right wrist.
She blinked.
What was he doing that for?
“You’re looking for me?”
Gu Shishi was baffled.
The boss told her to go over to him. Now he wouldn’t let go of her but he also wasn’t saying anything. What was going on?
Eh… was he being a tsundere again?
Whatever happened to him being germophobic?
“Eh, you got the painting that I asked Siyi to give to you this morning?”
As she was talking, she stealthily opened up the system’s interface.
She quickly checked the details under Doting of the Male Lead.
Oh darn!
The level of doting was going up!
Visibly so. At the rate of 1% per second!
He didn’t say a word but just hold onto her and secretly increasing his fondness of her?!
His tsundere syndrome has reached a whole new level!
He received her “Red Mountains”, loved it, but wouldn’t say it out loud?
So now he gave her the death stare as his way of thanking her?
Gu Shishi was dumbfounded.
As she was trying to figure it all out, the hand that was gripped onto her started to relax.
Using the light from her cell phone, she looked up and saw that Huo Sishen’s eyes were closed. Like a devil in deep sleep, his look turned nice and soft….
She opened her mouth.
He felt asleep again?
Gu Shishi didn’t know what to make of that.
She was just about to walk away and a deep voice rang from behind him.
“Sit down.”
Oh, he wasn’t asleep yet.
Gu Shishi turned her head.
She noticed that he didn’t open his eyes but his arm moved, as though he was adjusting himself to find a more comfortable position to fall asleep.
Gu Shishi started to sweat.
He wanted her to sleep…. With…. Him?!
