Chapter 390 - One needs beverages to go with the melons! (3)

Gu Shishi hasn’t even arrived home when she received the pleasantly surprised call from Manager Jie.

“Boss, I just received quite a few calls from disciples of various ink painting masters; a few of them were even their direct disciples.

“They all said that they were referred by you… Ink Painting Guru?’

Hearing that, Gu Shishi felt that these elderlies had kept to their words and were very efficient.

“That’s right. Talk to them and, depending on our budget, don’t slash the too much.”

Manager Jie acknowledged her and wanted to ask more about Ink Painting Guru.

Gu Shishi wasn’t quite ready to reveal her identity yet so she chose not to engage further.

Manager Jie had no choice but to hang up the call.

After the conversation and, still with her phone in her hand, Gu Shishi smiled at the man next to her and said, “Big Huohuo, I felt a little bad. Should I thank the elderlies?”

Her nickname for him made his heart rocked.

Big Huohuo.

Did that mean there would also be… little Huohuo?

His mind went very far away.

“Mmm.

“Sure.”

“Oh yay. Let me see if I should prepare some gifts or just to post a few high-dollar amount red pockets in the chatroom to show my appreciation.”

Gu Shishi pondered happily.

Siyi, sitting in the passenger seat, could start crying.

The boss had already spent 50 million yuan to show his appreciation. Did they really need to show more?

The painting that he had taken with him was, right now, sitting inside the trunk.

Gu Shishi did not notice it as she was on the call with Manager Jie.

That night, the light in the study stayed on for a long, long time.

The three feet long scroll was unfolded on the desk in its entirety.

Huo Sishen sat on this leather boss chair and stared at it, for the entire night.

The characters in the drawing looked like they could leap right out of the paper.

He was dazed!

Perhaps, having a child of their own wasn’t a bad idea after all?

One that was as smart and attentive as she was.

Even though her parents’ characters have a lot of room to be desired, she had still grown up nicely and shone brighter than a lot of wealthy girls.

She could be a very good mother for their child.

There was a very determined tone from this painting.

And he was the only one who got it.

“Sier, sent Mother Gu Gu Jiangxin’s current address.”

Huo Sishen pressed down the talk button on his phone sitting on the desk.

There was something else that he needed to take care of before that.

The new instructors reported to the art studio shortly and they even remodeled the place some.

In addition, Gu Shishi received a call from the Liu Zhichao, the factory owner, whom she had always forgotten all about.

The testing on the balancing lotion had been completed and they have received the appropriate licenses. They could start the production any time now.

Gu Shishi was pleased immediately.

In came an alert from the system!

[Research on the balancing lotion completed. Formula for hair-growing element now available for trading.]

[Hair-growing shampoo: 24 hours of health for 100 mL.]

[Trading for formula: 1,000 hours of health.]

Gu Shishi was very generous now and decided immediately to trade for it in installments.

She turned around and handed the formula over to Factory Owner Liu and had him carried on with his research.

In her busy and salted-fish days with some occasional painting, Gu Shishi quickly learned about Gu Wushuang’s return.

“Huh? Huo Wencheng ran to beat up his father-in-law’s lover?!” said Gu Shishi as she listened to Sier’s report from afar.

She reached out her hand and stopped him excitedly.

“Pardon me. Hold on for just a second. Allow me to go get myself a banana milkshake!”

It wouldn’t be proper melon-eating without a beverage!!

She was one who took every task seriously!
