Luckily, Gu Shishi was able to let out a sigh of relief after she did the calculation .
The boss was nice to her after all . After all the ups and down for over an hour, her net gain was +3% last night .
[Progress to the LV3 of Fondness from the Male Lead: 84%]
If this happened every day, she could advance to the next level in her sleep!
Gu Shishi’s mouth cracked open right away .
She was, however, stunned when she walked into the kitchen .
“The stock that I made… why was there only so little left?!”
Gu Shishi’s eyes almost popped out after she looked inside the pot .
It had shrunk drastically!!
The pot was ¾ full last night but had now lowered visibly to ½ way point!
She was about to scratch her head when a cold voice came from behind her .
“There’s no need to shout . ”
She turned around and saw Huo Sishen standing coldly at the dining room entrance .
He had on a light-grey suit . It was crisp with no crease at all . Even his hair was impeccable and his entire body exuded the feel of solemnness .
“All I could hear was your chattering all morning long . ”
Huo Sishen’s lips were shut tightly . It was all coldness between his brows .
“Eh, I’m sorry…” Gu Shishi blinked . She lowered her voice and gave the boss with an appeasing look . “I was too emotional . ”
Huo Sishen nodded and a hint of awkwardness flashed past his eyes .
“It was just some soup . There was no need to shout . ”
Gu Shishi nodded but still turned and looked at the pot, perplexed . “But I made that specifically for…”

She made that so she could get feedback from Mr . Chef . And she had planned to use the stock to test cook a few other dishes . But how was she going to do that with that much soup gone? Aye .
But she didn’t finish what she was saying . She covered up her mouth and didn’t want to irritate the boss again with her rambling .
She failed to notice the fact that the man in front of her blushed all the way to the tip of his ears because of her nervousness .
Huo Sishen turned around and froze awkwardly by the entrance .
Specifically, said the girl . He didn’t fail to catch that .
She had made that soup specifically… for him .
His rhythmic breathing was interrupted and became heavy .
She didn’t finish her sentence because she was shy in front of him?
His cold lips curved a little upward .
Finally, the girl felt some shyness today .

He turned back around, forced himself to calm down, and said, “There’s no need to tell me what it is for . ”
Gu Shishi pouted a bit and acknowledged him weakly .
But just when she was about to put the cover back onto the pot, she heard another “Ding!” sound in her ears .
[Received fondness from Huo Sishen!]
Gu Shishi, “!?”
QAQ . Exactly what was going through the boss’s mind?!

“Eh? Uncle, you will be taking off sooner for your vacation?”
Gu Shishi received the sudden notification half an hour later .
Chef Chen Qi wasn’t scheduled to to take off for another three days according to the original plan . Why was he going to start his vacation today?

“I’m sorry, Miss Gu . My family is…” Chen Qi couldn’t go on .
Next to him, Butler Lin gave him a look .
“I’m sorry . Please take care of Young Master’s meals, Miss Gu . ” Chen Qi could only lower his head in distress .
Gu Shishi quickly shook her hand at him and said, “Oh, don’t apologize . It’s alright . ”
“Don’t worry, Miss Gu,” said Butler right away . “Young Master always has lunch at the office . You only need to prepare dinner .
“In addition, you can just let me know what to buy and what needs to be chopped up . I will have a couple people helping you out . ”
Upon hearing that, Gu Shishi’s mood improved instantly .
Rinsing and chopping were both time-consuming tasks . It’d be much easier with someone to help her out . Otherwise, she’d need to have everything prepared the night before as she’d still need to go to work .
“Thank you, Butler . I will send you the list later . I am going to head to work now . ”
“Okay . ” Butler Lin quickly bowed to her . He finally let out a sigh of relief after seeing her off .
