Chapter 119: The boss was being a Tsundere again!

Chapter 119 - The boss was being a Tsundere again!

She didnt know how to make salmon omelet, seafood rice, nor cream of mushroom soup

The most she could do was maybe tomato with scrambled eggs!

She looked over to where the voice came from and saw that Boss Huo, standing at the top of the stairs, was also looking at her.

He has his back to the light, so she couldnt even see his look from where she was.

Just let Butler Lin know what kind of special ingredients you need during those five days.

His tone was mild, as though he was talking about something that couldnt be more normal.

Nonetheless, Gu Shishi shuddered violently.

The boss was the one who just spoke? The boss said it was okay for her to cook over the five-day period?

Wait. Wait, wait, wait. Did she just inadvertently dig her own grave?

But the chef, standing next to her, looked ecstatic!

But, Miss Gu would that be too much to ask of you?

Gu Shishi bit her lips. She would be cooking with her life. Yes! It was a lot to ask of her!

But she looked at how happy the chef looks and couldnt bring herself to say anything.

He hadnt taken a day off in so long that even his daughter had been complaining. And all he asked for was measly five days.

And the boss had already agreed to it. So how could she deny that?

Fine! She would do it!

At the very minimum, just make sure the food was cooked through and wouldnt get him sick!

Yeah, no worries. I can handle it. You enjoy your time off, said Gu Shishi with a smile.

I will take care of the bosss um, Mr. Huos three meals a day. I guarantee that hed thoroughly enjoy your cooking when you come back!

From starvation!

The chef couldnt help but bust out laughing.

Even Butler Lin tried very hard not to laugh out loud.

Huo Sishen scanned over them with his dark eyes.

The chef paused for a second and wasnt fast enough to wipe away his smile.

He quickly said, Thank you, Mr. Huo. His hands rested nervously pressed against the side of his pants.

Huo Sishen squinted, looked at him for a long while, before he said, No need to thank me.

A cold awkwardness filled the air all over again.

Gu Shishi looked from one of them to the next.

The boss was being a Tsundere again!

But neither the butler nor the chef knew that about him

Once his room door closed behind him, he was lonely and cold. And when he walked out of his room, nobody in this humongous mansion really talked to him. Over time, he became awkward and expressionless.

CLAP! CLAP! CLAP!

Gu Shishi was the first to applaud.

Thats right. Theres no need to thank Mr. Huo. We should thank the [communist] party daddy, thank our country daddy. For letting us take time off over mid-autumn festival. Daddy is tender, loving, handsome, elegant, kind, and altruistic. He is super awesome!

(T/N: Daddy Chinese internet slang usually refers to anyone thats very wealthy and/or with high status. i.e. Daddy Ma (Jack Ma, found of Alibaba), Daddy Starbucks (dont ask me why). Or you will read in web novel when one friend would tell another to refer to them as their daddy if they lose a bet you get the idea.)

Haha, yes. Miss Gu is right. The chef paused for a second but immediately chimed in to play along with her. But, he looked at Huo Sishen appreciatively.

Huo Sishens mouth twitched.

When he looked down, he saw a silly smile on the girl. Even the usually distant-looking Butler Lin has a hint of smile on him.

The way the chef was looking at him was no longer the usual fear

Surprisingly, the relaxed chuckling echoing within the mansion wasnt as irritating as they normally were.

Huo Sishen was at a loss for a little bit.

He parted his thin lips and said, Old Lin, just go ahead and hand out the mid-autumn gifts that you have prepared.

I shall, replied Butler Lin respectfully.

Gu Shishis eyes lit up immediately when she heard that there would be gifts.

CLAP! CLAP! CLAP! Another round of applause from the bottom of her heart!

Thank you, Daddy Huo! She blurted out.

Huo Sishen turned around and almost stumbled.
