Chapter 363 – He hoped he was just overthinking it. (1)
Gu Shishi blinked.
That wasn’t how it was before.
[That was the in the past.]
[I can’t possibly ask you to be in love with the housemaster of the prestigious family from the get go.]
[That’s why the difficulty level at the beginning was lowered. The standard will become higher and higher as time goes on.]
[The purpose of this system is not for the host to become a cheap, superficial, and materialistic wealthy housewife.]
[Please keep that in mind.]
All Gu Shishi could say was an “oh.”
She had just gotten up and was about to grab the other volumes of her manga she the man who had just came out of the shower wrapped his arms around her waist.
Gu Shishi blushed immediately.
She thought about whether to pull the curtains shut or whether she should take a shower herself...
Nevertheless, the light and frequent kisses were already raining down around her neck area along with the pheromone of a mature male and a hint of peppermint smell from the shower gel.
He wasn’t worried that she was dirty.
He went to take a shower immediately after he met the others.
But he was now kissing and hugging her before she had even washed her hands.
Gu Shishi’s first thought was to sprinkle sugar over herself.
She almost lost herself in the sweetness!
“If, Madam Gu ever asked you for help one day.”
The voice from the man behind her was hoarse but his words were steady and forceful.
And could calm another.
“Don’t worry about me, or anyone else. Just do what you want to do.”
Gu Shishi had sweetened herself.
Her brain wasn’t working very well right now, very much like someone in a food coma.
“Hmm?”
Her voice was still soft and girly.
Huo Sishen couldn’t help but give her another kiss.
Gu Shishi took in a few breathes before her brain was able to function again.
“She wouldn’t come asking me for anything other than when Gu Wushuang is involved.”
As soon as she finished saying that, she noticed the odd smile that wasn’t really a smile on Huo Sishen.
“What kind of difficulties will she be running into in the future?”
Gu Shishi was a very observant girl.
She was smart.
Huo Sishen planted another kiss on her lips as a reward.
In his hoarse voice, he said, “Gu Jiangxin seems to have another...”
He seemed to have hesitated on his word choice before he finished his sentence.
Gu Shishi’s eyes widened.
What did he have?
She became very curious, uncomfortably curious.
What could it be, to use the term “another”?
“He has another woman?”
She suddenly recalled the original owner’s father that she could barely remember.
She was very good with faces but, even so, had a hard time trying to recall what he looked like.
As such, she could conclude that not only had original owner only met him once and for a very short period of time, for sure he also wasn’t a very good-looking man!
Her sorry excuse of a father has another woman?!
When Gu Shishi slipped and said that out loud, she startled even herself.
That was not uncommon but, all of a sudden, everything started to make sense!
No wonder he didn’t care about his own daughter!
If he has another woman on the side, was she the same age as his daughter?!
Comparing to his daughter and his wife at home, of course a young woman outside of his house was way more attractive and more deserving of his time!
“Mmm.”
Huo Sishen’s frown was almost unnoticeable.
He obviously felt that his “father-in-law”’s behavior was very unbecoming.
“So, when you said Madam Gu will ask me for help in the future, you mean... Oh my gosh!”
Gu Shishi exclaimed when she got there.
“So if she asked for a divorce when she gets home, he would say yes right away? And there will be no chance that they will get re-married? The divorce will be final?”
Gu Shishi was stunned.
She just threw it out there today...
She had no intention to get involved in someone else’s marriage. This was such a joke.
“It’s not you.”
Huo Sishen figured out what she was worried about almost immediately. He pinched her pink and soft chin and turned her attention back to him.
“Gu Jiangxin,” he said. The sarcastic look on him deepened. “Had probably been waiting for the opportunity to bring up the divorce. Even if you hadn’t said anything today, he would bring it up after Gu Wushuang’s surgery, regardless of the outcome.”
