Chapter 298 – What guru? That is her sister-in-law! (3)
“No, I won’t.” Huo ChuChu was particularly docile today. She bared her teeth briefly and said, “I will only upset Second Brother, who is healthy, from time to time. I will be as careful as I can with you and grandma. I hope for you two to remain healthy.”
If any of them get sick, they would, once again, blame it on fengshui or her brother’s curse.
That was what was going through Huo ChuChu’s mind.
Mother Huo, on the other hand, didn’t know how to respond to that.
Her daughter had always been a porcupine. For everything that she said, Huo ChuChu would come back with 100 lines of rebuttal.
It was odd when she agreed with what she had said.
Was she mocking her?
She was perplexed once again when she looked at her youngest daughter.
She had never ever been this docile before.
“Well, go take a look at you grandmother and help her downstairs. We will be late if we don’t head out soon.”
Mother Huo couldn’t figure out why the change with his daughter.
Her tone was still a little stiff but the storm in it was gone.
Huo ChuChu acknowledged her.
Huo ChuChu was really behaving herself after they had left the house. She didn’t join in with the conversation on their way but only played on her cellphone. All in all, she wasn’t causing any troubles for anyone.
Unlike in the past, she’d always rebut anything that anyone else said.
Mother Hou finally started feeling somewhat assured.
She exchanged a look with Old Mrs. Huo and both of them looked happy.
Mainly Huo ChuChu was getting older and she had no interest in the family business. As such, they would need to start looking into her marriage.
They would spend the next two to three years in mending their relationships with other families, improve their impressions, and, when push came to shove, they could look into families in other cities as well.
She would be stay-at-home housewife so there was no urgency in her getting a job.
Mother Huo reminded her again anxiously right before they have reached their destination.
“Old Mrs. Chen asked your grandmother to go appreciate paintings today. Remember, don’t be rule. Don’t say anything that you shouldn’t. Don’t be a party pooper.”
Huo ChuChu looked up at the mention of appreciating paintings.
“What kind of painting?”
She had an odd feeling about this.
It wasn’t every day when her daughter expressed interest in what they were talking about. Mother Huo was happy to elaborate on it.
“It seems that Old Mrs. Chen had newly acquired a painting from some master. A few experts had appraised it and said it was worth at least ten million yuan or up. I think it is someone by the name of Ink Painting Guru?”
Huo ChuChu, “! ! ? ?”
What guru? That was her sister-in-law, alright!

When the first beam of light shined into the room, Gu Shishi opened up her eyes groggily.
“Mmm....”
Frowning, she rolled over. She didn’t even open her eyes when she reached her hand out to look for her phone on the night table. She wanted to see what time it was now.
Nevertheless...
When she rolled over, she rolled into a cedar wood and minty scented warm chest.
At that very instant, after a short daze, her brain was cleared immediately.
The boss...
She looked up sightly and was able to see Huo Sishen’s sleeping face.
His eyes were still closed and his eyelashes casted shadows on his cheeks.
Oh darn!
He was put to sleep by her again?
Gu Shishi’s first idea was that her ability of putting him to sleep was way too effective.
Then, she studied the boss’s sleeping look carefully.
Aye, this man was so good looking.
His brows, eyes, nose, mouth... all of them so perfectly distributed.
When she looked at him carefully, from his hairline to his brows, brows to tip of his nose, and tip of his nose to his chin could be divided into exactly three equal parts.
The distance between his two eyes and the distance between his eyes to his side hairline were also exactly the length of his black eyes.

That was the same as many pretty little fresh meat and beautiful women.
This was also the standard adopted when creating characters in modern paintings.
Gu Shishi etched his features and the outline of his face in her mind and was amazed.
The boss was surely someone who was be making his living with his look but was held back by his work!
Her lips couldn’t help but curved upward.
What an eye candy that he was.
