Chapter 217 - Can I ask you for a favor, fiance? (2)
Huo Sishen cleared his throat and turned away .
“Leave the food . ”
Gu Shishi blinked .
Tsk . Tsk .
The boss’s ears… were red again!
“You should go back to your room now . ”
Huo Sishen turned back around and met the “yeah, yeah, yeah,” look on the girl .
His lips twitched and his fingers were stiff .
He placed his fist next to his mouth and cough slightly .
“As long as I am your fiancé, it is my business to get to know about your past . ”
“Yes, yes, yes . ”
Gu Shishi smiled and nodded .
“Then can you do me a favor, fiancée?”
Looking at the progress bar of Doting of the Male Leads that had been going up covertly, Gu Shishi couldn't help but crack open her mouth and smiled .
Teasing the boss was always fun .
The boss might look very mean, but he was actually quite cute .
Huo Sishen’s breathing came to a temporary halt when he heard the term coming from her .
He squeezed out a word with difficulty, “Speak . ”
Gu Shishi immediately pushed her cellphone forward toward him . “Em em em, please help me translate this… aye, my English is not very good . Mainly listening comprehension . That’s my weakness . ”
Even though she was a college graduate, but the gap between different majors was drastic .
She rarely interacted with foreigners . She could read and write but listening comprehension was her Achilles tendon .
Huo Sishen looked down .
After looking at the video for a little while, he nodded .
“Send it over to me . ”
“Come back in half an hour . ”
Oh, mi!
Household superman online!
Gu Shishi smiled and nodded .
Nevertheless, her smile lasted all one second .
“Start practicing your English starting this weekend . No more banquets,” came Huo Sishen’s sonorous voice .
It left no room for any kind of challenge .
She would only be bullied when she attended these banquets anyway .
That part he did not share .
All those so-called wealthy girls, they were both noisy and brainless .
They would only have negative influence on her .
She was still a good girl when she left for the pool party . After she went to the pool party and gotten drunk that night, she painted the after-bath paintings… all twelve of them!
What would happen if she attended a few more of those?
“All of the invitations come to me going forward,” said Huo Sishen .
Gu Shishi was dumbfounded for half a second .
How would she level up then?
NOOoooo!
“But I need friends…”
“With those people?” said Huo Sishen with his eyes narrowed .
He thought about a few of them . He only felt that they were all wacky in their own way and none of them was good candidate for friends .
The Chen one was silly and white . The Li one was foolish and pretentious . The Luo one was straight up spoiled .
And the Gu one . He could tell that she was bad news just from the way she looked .
His brows furrowed more and more as he went through the list of wealthy girls .
The only one left was Huo ChuChu .
She might be slow and stubborn, but at least she had no bad intentions .
“You can go out once a week, to have fun with your friends . ”
Huo Sishen pinched between his brows a little .
He was starting to feel more and more like a worried father .
After all the screening, there were a lot that were good enough to befriend .
He was worried sick .
“I’ll introduce someone to you . ”
There was a sense of helplessness in his deep voice .
Gu Shishi, “Oh?”
The boss has friends?
Huo Sishen’s lips twitched and he was about to send her on her way .
But he noticed that the girl was looking at him eagerly .
“What’s the matter now?”
“Eh, if it’s the weekend, you can go out with me,” said Gu Shishi .
Huo Sishen paused for a little .
Gu Shishi blinked . “It must be tiring after working for a week . I don’t have many friends here and, even if you introduce new friends to me, I still won’t know them very well .
“Unlike you, Mr . Huo . I am already more familiar with you . We can hang out together over the weekend . Maybe go to a movie or something . ”
His fondness for her had gone up significantly after dinner the other day .
She figured it’d go up madly if they were to go to a movie together .
If he never learned to accept himself and stop the silly thought that he was a walking curse, he would never let Huo ChuChu to move in with them .
Nor would he ever accept her!
Gu Shishi was capable of sorting out her thoughts .
“Otherwise, it’d be so lonely going to a theater all by myself with nobody to talk to or discuss the movie with .
“Can you imagine how awful that is?”
Huo Sishen’s lips twitched .
