[✓]Spending the Villain's Money to Extend My Life

Starved

That evening.

Gu Shishi got off of work on time and was picked up Siyi.

As soon as she walked into the mansion, she noticed that it was even quieter than usual.

Once it was after 7 PM, nobody else dare to walk around the mansion or speak loudly.

Gu Shishi didn’t give that too much thought but ran straight into the small dining room and was ready for dinner!

Even though there was an extra portion of lunch today, that wasn’t enough for all the ladies at the art center.

She only got a small piece of steak in the end, which was only worth 30 minutes!

[Remaining Life Balance: 46 hours 23 minutes and 13 seconds.]

From 6 PM yesterday to 6 PM today, she had consumed an entire day of life!

Gu Shishi put her hand over her stomach painfully.

On top of that, Uncle Chef wasn’t even there today. It was a somewhat familiar maid waiting there for her.

“Miss Gu, Mr. Huo hasn’t had dinner yet. Do you think I can trouble you to bring that to him?”

The maid seemed a little worried, she was begging her with her fingers laced together.

“You are Master’s fiancée. He will be even happier getting dinner from you.”

Gu Shishi looked worried.

Nobody dared to cross him when Huo Sishen was in a bad mood.

Was he in a bad mood because she had carelessly held his hand today?

To the point that he didn’t even have an appetite for dinner? The maid seems so frightened; did he throw a fit after he had gone home?

The more she thought about it, the more she thought it was her fault!

“Okay, I will go!”

The meal tray on the table was all ready.

There were a few small side dishes, steamed rice, and a glass of cold milk.

Gu Shishi picked up the bone China tray and hastily headed upstairs.

When she was just one step away from Huo Sishen’s room, her eyelids twitched all of a sudden!

Her foot paused in midair.

Wait a minute!

She seemed to recall that the boss did not like cold milk in the original novel?

Something about a bad experience from his childhood?

It was mentioned in the novel that his ex-fiancee tried to kiss up to him and brought him milk before bed one time. She ended up having the milk poured all over her by the furious Huo Sishen. She left pitifully after he had berated her.

Goosebumps began to creep up the back of Gu Shishi’s neck.

With one hand carrying the dinner tray, and the other holding onto the nicely-carved banister, she stiffly turned around, “Um...”

She wanted to confirm with the maid, only to find that there was nobody downstairs anymore!

“Where did she go?” Gu Shishi’s mouth dropped open.

The face of the maid suddenly flashed past her eyes.

And she felt a chill running down her spine.

She had seen this maid before...
