A few days before the banquet, Gu Shishi discovered another strange thing.
Between her mother's swimwear, she finally chose a pure black swimsuit.
Huo Sishen's fondness for her started to increase.
However much it had dropped, it rose back up.
Not only that, but she also went to the swimming pool every night. As a result, his fondness for her increased every day.
She even suspected that the big boss was peeping at her, but she had no evidence.
On the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the number of employees in the villa started to decrease. Some of them went home for the festival.
However, most of them stayed to get overtime pay.
However, in the villa, which had always been strict, there started to be a creepy rumor.
"There seems to be a ghost behind the small garden …"
"Last night at ten o 'clock, I forgot to lock the door and came back. I saw a black shadow floating around in the back garden. "
"Did you see it too?! I saw it the night before! "
"Wow, don't make it sound so scary. Do you know? The wine that I collect every day has decreased by a lot. There are also fewer glasses. I'm even more nervous, okay? "
"Huh?!"
"What are you talking about?! Two days ago, I saw a black shadow watching Miss Gu swimming in the swimming pool … It seemed to be drinking … "
Gu Shishi occasionally passed by the maids' lounge.
She had heard such remarks.
As the person involved, she almost had goosebumps.
However, she still raised her hand weakly and interrupted the maids who were resting. "Are you sure that it's not a person?"
She was sure that it was Huo Sishen!
Otherwise, where did she get the fondness from?
This man had been sneaking glances at her while she was swimming, and he was even drinking …?!
Gu Shishi's face turned red.
"Ah, Miss Gu, we, we …"
"Don't listen to our nonsense!"
The maids all changed their words and began to panic.
She was working in the master's house, and there were rumors that the master's house was haunted and that a ghost was watching her. If this was serious, she would be fired.
However, Gu Shishi waved her hand. "The black shadow you saw was definitely a person. Did it look like Young Master?"
The maids were stunned, but they all shook their heads.
Among them, a chubby girl said boldly, "Young Master usually doesn't leave his room, especially late at night. He never went to the back garden or the swimming pool. I, I've been cleaning up there, and I've never seen Young Master. "
As soon as she said this, the other maids became bolder.
An older maid nodded. "Everyone knows that Young Master is only active in the villa area."
"Moreover, Young Master has a regular schedule. He goes to bed at 8 pm. No one was allowed to walk around the entire villa, including outside the garden. We usually go back to our room at 10 o 'clock. If I didn't need to pee that day, I wouldn't have woken up. "
The maid on duty in the back garden had to walk to the staff area to use the washroom.
"That's right. Besides, Young Master drinks a certain amount every day. The amount of red wine consumed in the past few days is as much as three young masters combined! "
Gu Shishi blinked as she listened to the maids' speculations.
She did not have any concrete evidence.
However, it was still necessary to appease the employees. It was almost the Mid-Autumn Festival.
"It's not him, it's Si Yi. Don't be afraid."
Gu Shishi consoled the maids.
"I'll go ask."
However, Si Yi was even more certain.
"The boss won't leave his study or bedroom. Normally, he will only go to the restaurant for his meals."
"Drinking outside? No. He thinks it's dirty. "
He paused for a moment before explaining.
"There's dust floating in the air. He won't eat or drink outside."
Gu Shishi's eyes widened. She must have seen a ghost!
That wasn't right. How could she explain the increase in his favorability towards her whenever she swam?
Gu Shishi felt like she was going crazy.
However, she thought about the rumors from the maids and decided to tell Si Yi about it.
What if a bad person had sneaked into the villa?
Si Yi was dumbfounded when he heard this.
Miss Gu suspected that the boss was peeping … no, watching her swim every day?!
While they were talking, Huo Sishen walked down from the second floor with a solemn expression. He was wearing a meticulous suit jacket.
Si Yi turned around with difficulty and gave Gu Shishi a pleading look.
Gu Shishi swallowed her saliva and braced herself.
She took two steps forward.
"Mr. Huo, good morning. Uh …"
She twisted her hands on the hem of her dress.
How could she say it?
Have you been peeping at me every night …?
"It's so early in the morning. You can't even speak clearly."
Huo Sishen looked up and adjusted his cufflinks.
"What did you do this time?"
Gu Shishi was stunned. Then, she suddenly had an idea.
She bit her lip.
"I went swimming last night. The hair tie I used to tie up my hair seemed to have fallen off. I couldn't find it when I went today. It was quite shiny. It was especially shiny in the dark … "
Huo Sishen narrowed his eyes and turned his wristwatch around.
"You didn't wear it. Your hair was down …"
Halfway through his sentence, his expression froze.
Gu Shishi lowered her head.
She screamed like a groundhog in her heart.
He was indeed peeping at her!
Otherwise, how would he know her hairstyle?
Huo Sishen seemed to have realized his mistake.
He turned his head away uneasily.
"Your hair is usually down …"
When he turned around and saw Si Yi staring at him with his mouth agape, he immediately frowned.
"Why are you still standing here? Didn't you hear what she said? Get someone to look for it at the swimming pool! "
Si Yi was speechless.
Wasn't he not wearing a hair tie?
Did Boss really think that he had such a low IQ? Did he not understand human language?
"Yes."
However, he had to give face to Boss.
"Come back!"
Huo Sishen's temples twitched.
He glared fiercely at Gu Shishi, who was pinching his hand.
"If you can't find it, get Auntie Zheng to buy it."
Si Yi nodded hurriedly and retreated.
He was afraid that if he was a second late, he would not be able to control his urge to laugh.
Tonight, he had new gossip to tell Second Si!
He was afraid that his boss, who never left his room, would go to the rooftop in the middle of the night to drink just to peek at Miss Gu bathing … no, swimming!!!
He had always envied Second Si for being able to go out to the field. Now, he felt that following Boss every day was interesting and there were miracles to be seen!
Si Yi thought for a while and walked back.
"Boss, the wine cellar staff said that the stock of '76 red wine seems to have decreased in recent days."
Huo Sishen's eyelids twitched.
He almost kicked him in the butt.
"Why are you telling me such things!"
Si Yi immediately agreed happily. "Okay, I'll get someone to buy it."
Gu Shishi looked at the ground the entire time.
Her shoulders trembled.
It was fun to see the boss being humiliated and angry.
Anyway, it was not a big deal to be seen when she was swimming.
Wouldn't the public swimming pool be seen by everyone?
Moreover, this also meant that her body was quite attractive now!
Although the boss did not say it, he did have a good impression of her.
With the System around, Gu Shishi felt that she would be bound to the boss for the rest of her life.
If the two of them liked each other, of course, it would be much better than treating each other with respect and hatred.
She was a woman of the new era. She did not reject the idea of being with a handsome, rich, talented, and capable man.
In this world, there were not many handsome men, and even fewer high-quality ones.
As she was painting, she was usually very observant and did not see many men that were pleasing to the eye.
Gu Shishi sighed as she thought about it.
In that case, she really had to thank the System!
However, a hoarse voice suddenly interrupted her thoughts.
"Whatever it is, it's worth being anxious about."
Huo Sishen pursed his thin lips and looked at the girl in front of him who sighed, slumped her shoulders, and lowered her head.
He could not help but frown again.
"Don't you know how to tell the butler what you lack?"
"Do you think I'll be short of a rubber band?"
However, after he said that coldly, he saw Gu Shishi's head seemed to lower even more.
He could not help but think of her background.
She was not like those girls who grew up in a honey pot, who had the habit of acting coquettishly when they wanted something.
In fact, the real aristocrats would not look down on ordinary people.
However, the reality was that if an ordinary person was suddenly thrown into the world of the rich, they would not be able to adapt in a short time. There was even a 90% chance that they would become complacent and learn the bad habits of the nouveau riche.
However, she was still considered a good person.
At least, she still had some purity in her.
However, she was too timid and cautious.
Until now, she did not know how to instruct the maids and butler to serve her.
When Huo Sishen thought of this, he could not help but feel that the task on his shoulders was heavy.
It was just like when the old butler picked a puppy when he was young. He had to teach it patiently from the beginning, from going to the toilet and not biting at home.
He narrowed his dark eyes and his gaze became a little soft.
Even his usually deep and cold voice became a little warm.
"From today onwards, I'll ask Auntie Zheng, who is in charge of the maids, to follow you 24/7. She won't do anything and will only take care of you. "
Huo Sishen paused as he spoke.
His tone was as gentle as the old butler's when he taught the puppy.
"From now on, you'll be her business. If you need anything, just tell her."
"I'll ask Butler Lin to set up the internal line in your room. I guarantee that you can find Auntie Zheng at any time."
Girls would always have some problems that were difficult to talk about. It was not appropriate to ask Butler Lin, a middle-aged man.
After Huo Sishen finished speaking, he frowned.
He had indeed overlooked it previously.
Gu Shishi finally raised her small face. Her eyes were watery.
Her skin was rosy, fair, and extremely soft.
"Actually, I'm fine …"
She just wanted to test him. That was why she mentioned the rubber band.
She did not know how he came to such a conclusion in just a few minutes.
However, Huo Sishen disagreed and interrupted her.
"I'll leave her to you. You can do whatever you want with her."
He strode past her with his long legs.
However, when he walked past her, he could not help but catch a whiff of the faint rose fragrance. He could not help but hold his breath as he recalled the situation a few nights ago.
He deliberately asked Auntie Zheng to mention the swimming pool because he wanted to see if her swimsuit … was appropriate. He did not want to be molested by those people outside.
However, for some reason, he waited on the rooftop every day for her to appear …
To taste wine, to admire the moon, and to admire people.
Just like how he tasted wine with her fan.
He was indeed unrestrained and open-minded.
Drinking a glass of wine outdoors did not seem as disgusting as he thought.
It was not bad.
The corners of Huo Sishen's lips curved upwards.
He saw Gu Shishi following him like an obedient wife. She was wearing an apron and had her hair tied up in a bun. She brought the breakfast sandwiches and orange juice that she had packed.
He lifted his feet and walked out. His chest was vibrating.
It was not bad. This was the feeling.
"Auntie Zheng."
He went out and got into the car. He immediately made a call.
"Accompany her shopping. Swipe my card. Buy a new set of aprons. "
The pink color was more suitable for her in the morning.
[Triggered the hidden male owner mission!]
Gu Shishi was standing at the door. When she heard the voice, she was stunned.
