Chapter 4

Mo Shiting strode over and found that the girl he thought had disappeared was currently lying at the foot of the bed, hugging a pillow tightly with both hands. Her face was pressed against the pillow as she slept like a pig.

She’s sleeping on the floor when there’s a bed? What is she doing?

And she’s even drooling?

How can there be such a woman?

The man’s eyes were full of disdain.

…

An hour later…

Gu Li got up from the carpet in a daze. When she saw the unfamiliar environment in the room, she suddenly shuddered and immediately perked up.

Aunt Guan knocked on the door with a bag of toiletries and said in a concerned tone, “Good morning, Young Madam! Did you sleep well last night?”

“Good morning, Aunt Guan! I slept pretty well.”

Gu Li smiled and exchanged a few pleasantries with her. She had completely no idea that this was Mo Shiting’s room, nor did she know that he had come in early in the morning and had even seen her terrible sleeping posture.

After washing up, Gu Li tied her hair into a ponytail and ran downstairs feeling refreshed.

At the same time, Mo Shiting was already eating in the dining room. Upon hearing the footsteps, he didn’t even look up at her.

Gu Li walked over and greeted him with a smile. “Good morning, Young Master Mo.”

“…”

The man ignored her.

Gu Li pursed her lips and walked over to sit down, completely unaffected by his cold attitude.

After they had breakfast without disturbing each other, Gu Li asked, “How’s Grandpa Mo’s situation?”

“My grandfather’s matter has nothing to do with you.”

After speaking coldly, Mo Shiting stood up and left.

“Tsk!”

Gu Li couldn’t help making a face towards his back. However, he seemed to have eyes behind his back and he turned around right when she made a face at him.

Gu Li, who was caught red-handed: “…”

Mo Shiting glanced at her. “Go to the study on the second floor.”

With that, he strode away without waiting for Gu Li to reply.

Gu Li could only follow him to the study.

In the study…

Mo Shiting sat behind the desk and handed her an A4 paper.

Gu Li took it and looked at it. What should she take note of?

She quickly scanned through them and realized that they were all restrictions on her actions.

One of them was particularly eye-catching. Gu Li slammed the paper on the table and sneered disdainfully. “I’m not allowed to sleep in your room? Hah, would I want to do that? Don’t worry, I definitely won’t take even a single step into your room. I’ll just sleep in the room I slept in last night.”

The corners of Mo Shiting’s lips curved up. “Are you sure?”

Gu Li raised her beautiful chin. “Of course! I like it a lot.”

Mo Shiting: “…”

After about two seconds of silence, he finally reminded her kindly, “That’s my room.”

Gu Li: “…”

No wonder that bed was so hard. It hurt her bones to sleep on it. So that room is his?

The girl puffed her cheeks and heard the man change the topic. “You can’t go to visit Grandfather during this period.”

“Why?”

Gu Li wasn’t very willing to cooperate.

“Don’t complicate things.”

“But…”

Gu Li still wanted to say something, but he chased her out of the study mercilessly.

“Hey—”

Just as she was about to knock on the door, her phone suddenly rang.

“Boss, you became a trending topic!”

Da Ha’s excited voice came through the call.

Gu Li was dumbfounded. “I’m not even a celebrity. Why would I be a trending topic?”

“Didn’t you promise the readers that you would update the finale of ‘The Beautiful Master’ last week? But after waiting for a week, they still haven’t seen it and they found out that you stood them up, so they scolded you so much that you became a trending topic.

“F*ck!”

Gu Li hurriedly opened her Weibo.

And of course, the first thing she saw was the hashtag, #Give Us Our Finale ‘A Sweet Pear’, topping the search list.

Gu Li: “…”

‘A Sweet Pear’ was her username on the social media platform, Station C.

Three months ago, she drew a comic called ‘The Beautiful Master’ on a whim and uploaded it on Station C, which had accidentally gone viral..
