Chapter 136 - Woman, Be Ready for The Consequences If This Doesn’t Taste Good (1)

Where did this extra part after the WeChat alias come from? It certainly wasn’t there in the past.

Gu Shishi closed out of the chat window and went back inside. The red letters were still there.

In her friends’ chat log –

Boss Hao – no remark.

Ling Xiaomei – no remark.

What’s happening?

“What’s going on? This only applies to Chen Kexin?”

[The remark shows up when items that would increase their fondness appear in the marketspace.]

The system finally decided to show her a wee bit of mercy and popped up with a clue. 

“That’s not right either. Haven’t I added Chen Kexin on WeChat a while back? And, by the way, how come I didn’t see this remark when I was using my Guru account?”

[You must have the right to browse her friends’ circle in order to see the remark.]

[It will not appear when you are blocked.]

Gu Shishi’s eyes widened.

“I have her…”

She only said three words when she realized that her “Ink Painting Guru” account hadn’t been seeing anything that Chen Kexin had posted lately. 

That brat. She had her blocked?

How dare she!

She could see them when she was first added. How was it that after she had learned of her real identity, she had her blocked?

Gu Shishi compared between her two different WeChat accounts. Sure enough, she could see a few of her recent posts from her regular account. 

“Insomnia… am I going to breakout again?”

“I refuse to leave the house today! My makeup was a greasy mess on my face in a minute or less! I am going to go insane!”

“To all my wonderful friends. Any suggestions on a good foundation?”

“Any recommendation on a good toner? T-zone…. Anything that can help with blackheads will work too.”

She had been posting requests for recommendations of this type in the last 2 ~ 3 days. 

A change from her usual posts of pretty purses. 

Gu Shishi’s cracked up with a big smile. 

“Someone’s sending me a pillow just when I am sleepy.”

She was just thinking that she had exchanged for that useless toner. And it turned out to be just what Chen Kexin had been looking for?

What a coincidence?

Gu Shishi, who had just lost a good chunk of blood, rolled her sleeves up immediately, and replied below Chen Kexin’s latest posts. 

[I have a secret formula.]

[PM me if you want to try it out.]

She then sent over a list of papers, pens, ink, and inkstones for beginners over to her. 

When she was done with all those. She took another look at the system counter with only 23 minutes left on it and sighed. 

Shoving her cellphone into her pocket, she pulled out the chef’s secret recipe book and walked into the hallway. 

Troubled, she quietly paced back and forth on the wooden hallway for 5 minutes and still saw no sign of the boss. 

She snuck up to the study and lifted her ears, but she couldn’t hear anything from the inside. 

Aye.

The boss, upset for some unknown reasons, seemed to be more… withdrawn?

Would it be a good idea for her to force her way in during this time in an effort to raise his fondness for her?

Anyone who had snapped would need a cool down period. Poking the person before the cool down period was over would just be silly.

Gu Shishi lowered her head in resignation and decided to go to the kitchen next to the small dining room with the chef’s notes in hand.

It probably wasn’t the best idea to put herself in that situation right now.

She was, after all, a person with just a few days of life remaining. 

What if the boss’s fondness for her dropped all the way to LV0 and he threw her out of the mansion?

Then it’d be game over for her!
