Early afternoon on summer days was the hottest time of the day.

Under the cruel burning sun, the ground was so hot that one couldn’t even stand on it with their bare feet.

It was a windless day. One only needed to stand outside for a short while before the sun above and the skin that was now burning would made one irritated.

Gu Shishi’s little face was beet red and sweat kept pouring out of her forehead and the tip of her nose.

She was still wearing the face mask from when she was cleaning the living room. Once she was outdoors, the mask was soaked through by her sweat before long, so she just took it off.

“Miss Gu, don’t just water the plants. The weeds need to be taken care of too,” said a chubby, freckled maid with her hands resting on her waist. The maid might look very stern, but she couldn’t refrain all of her pleasant surprise and her sense of superiority from showing.

When would a maid ever had the opportunity to boss around a girl from a wealthy family?!

Yet today, such an opportunity was offered up to her, Shi Li!

Never mind this fiancée of the Young Master grew up in an ordinary family and had only been a wealthy girl for just a few days; the opportunity to boss her around still excited Shi Li.

Shi Li didn’t even feel toilsome slaving under the scorching sun, sweating along-side the wealthy girl.

“You must pull these weeds one by one by hand. The scissors might damage the flowers accidentally, so you must do it by hand. That’s how I always do it.”

Who else could give a wealthy girl such a hard time as to pull weeds out one by one?

Having said that, Shi Li looked even happier than she was before.

“Okay, Shi-jie.” Said Gu Shishi as she wiped away the sweat on her forehead. She couldn’t control the smile on her face.

She checked the interface intermittently as she was weeding.

[Received fondness from Siyi and Butler Lin. “Acknowledgement of Others” leveled up to LV 1!]

[Host’s current level: LV1 – The Prominent Family’s Fiancée on the Slippery Slope.]

[Other’s Acknowledge: LV1]

[Doting of the Male Lead: LV1]

[Maximum Life: 5 days.]

[Current Remaining Balance: 71 hours 14 minutes and 24 seconds.]

Happy~

She would never have thought that some simple housework would earn her fondness from both the butler and Siyi~

This was easier than she had imagined!

Now she can live for 5 days!

Just thinking about it was able to keep that smile on her face.

But, the system was so cheap, the maximum for LV2 was just 5 days?!

“Hurry up, Miss Gu! It only takes me an hour normally to do all these by myself!” said Shi Li in an imperious tone.

Perhaps, even she had noticed that her tone might be problematic, so Shi Li quickly added, “The butler said that I must stay here to watch over you!”

“Yes, yes! I understand, Shi-jie. Why don’t you go have a seat on the side? I will work faster!” said Gu Shishi with a bright smile and sparkly eyes.
