Chapter 137: Woman, Be Ready for The Consequences If This Doesn’t Taste Good (2)1

She couldn’t risk that, so avoidance was her next best option.

She went into the kitchen and gave the steak preparation that she had learned that morning a try. She also made a stock on the side for the chef to critique tomorrow.

When all was said and done, she had spent close to 3 hours in the kitchen.

She was drenched in her own sweat, and her back was sore from standing for so long.

But, as soon as she thought about that if her cooking was good and the boss’s fondness for her reached LV4 or LV5… she couldn’t stop chuckling.

She tried a small piece of the steak after she was done before she nodded and put it inside the fridge. She then walked back into her room, content.

***

While she was happily soaking in the tub and applying her face mask, the light in the study was still on.

Huo Sishen, sitting on his leather chair, was holding a notebook in his hand that was just given to him by Siyi.

“You found this?”

Siyi dared not looked up. “I think it belongs to Miss Gu. She left it in the kitchen. It looked like her handwriting.”

Huo Sishen frowned and flipped it open.

Tender fried steak.

It looked like Chef Zheng’s handwriting. It’s his secret recipe book.

He was stunned when he looked over at the end of the page.

Next to the instructions that were written in pen, there were cute drawings and writing in pencil.

[The boss likes meat. Must make!]

Under the words, there was a drawing of a round, cartoon steak.

Surrounding the piece of steak, there was a circle of round, plump vegetables, laughing and fighting to jump into the pot.

[The boss does not like vegetables. Must be stealthy when adding them.]

The handwriting was delicate like that from a girl… And filled with childishness.

Yet, the painting of this childish person would sometimes impress him.

Like the bamboo on the fan.

Her bold, elegant, and antiquitous writing along with the solitary bamboo that was standing straight up by its lonesome, fighting to live…

Acceptable.

Huo Sishen’s tightly shut lips started to curve.

The chilliness around him started to dissipate.

“If it belongs to her, why are you bringing it to me? Siyi, your competency is dropping.”

SMACK! And the notebook was tossed to the table.

Siyi, being called out, nodded quickly and said, “Okay, I will bring it back to Miss Gu right away.”

Boss… your words would be much more convincing if you didn’t smile when you talk!

He turned around and headed for the door.

A deep voice stopped him again.

“Come back.”

Huo Sishen’s long and slender fingers drummed on the desk.

After a while, it stopped again.

“Never mind. It’s fine. Go.”

Siyi nodded and walked out of the study immediately.

Doctor Qin was right. The boss was different than he was before!

He had become moodier and indecisive…

But he was right about one thing.

The boss’s mood improved when he saw Miss Gu’s stuff.

When he was in a good mood, it made life easier for everyone who worked for him.

The thought of it lightened Siyi’s steps.

***

Gu Shishi was baffled when someone knocked on her door.

But when she saw Siyi and the notebook that she had left in the kitchen, she was pleasantly surprised.

Before she was able to thank him, she heard reminders buzzing in her ears.

So melodious!

[Beep! Fondness from Huo Sishen rising dramatically!]

[Beep! Male lead’s adoration is increasing. Back to LV2! Right now, 60% more to LV3!]

Went up so abruptly? And by so much?

She had just fallen back to LV1 and now it went back up. Almost back to the same level as before!
