Yan Shuyu and Zhang Yuanjiaâs plan was to go and pick up the little male lead from his place. After all, the boss wasnât home and the little male lead wouldnât be able to come out on his own.
Hearing what the boss had said, Yan Shuyu realized that poverty had still limited her imagination. Just because the boss was out on a business trip didnât mean that the chauffeur wasnât around. There might even be bodyguards whoâd follow too.
She happily accepted the bossâs arrangement.
After she had nodded, she noticed that the bossâs words sounded very autocratic, so she reminded him by saying, âDonât just drop him off. You should at least ask him if he wants to come first.â
Having said that, Yan Shuyu couldnât help but grumble to herself that with the bossâs uncompromising style, even without the stepmom and the stepbrother in between, the father and son probably wouldnât have a very harmonious relationship with each other.
A mountain canât hold two tigers; a household canât have two domineering CEOs.
Zhou Qinhe didnât really know what she was trying to get at, but he laughed wholeheartedly. Then, in a somewhat indulging voice, he said, âOkay, Iâll ask him how he feels first.â
That made Yan Shuyu feel better. As much as she felt that the little male lead loved both her and her son and most likely would not turn down their invitation, she still wanted to appear to be a liberal person. âOkay, Iâll wait for your good news then.â
Having said that, she recalled that the boss had just got off the flight and should be plenty tired. Feeling a stroke of conscience, she said to him, âAh, you can just text me through WeChat. No need to call me again. You should get some rest while you can.â
The boss was, obviously, appeased by her being consideration and his voice went a whole notch softer. âAlright.â
Shortly after they hung up the phone, Yan Shuyu received the WeChat message from the boss and more or less confirmed to her that the little male lead had accepted their invitation. She quickly responded with, âGot it. Now go get some rest.â
After receiving the confirmation, Yan Shuyu informed Manager Yang and her little buddies. âYuanbao had invited his little buddy Zhou Yi to come play at the shop. They might have to take over Manager Yangâs office again.â
Yang Zifeng knew that his buddy was already a couple with Boss Zhou, but he hadnât expected her to be able to bring over his prince in such a short time. He raised his brows and said with admiration. âZhou Yi, right?â
Yan Shuyu didnât catch the meaning behind his look and was just about to nod when the others already started asking, âWho is Zhou Yi?â
Manager Yang replied for her, âHeâs Boss Zhouâs son. You guys have seen him before.â
The crowd had met the wealthy young master before and had a lasting impression of him, but it was today that they found out his actual name.
That being said, the crowd turned their attention onto Yan Shuyuâs and Boss Zhouâs relationship once again. Sherry was the first who put her arm in Yan Shuyuâs and asked her with a smile. âOkay, now spill, little Yanyan. What is your relationship with Boss Zhou now?â
Yan Shuyu knew there would be all kinds of speculation, so she wasnât surprised by it. She pulled out the excuse that she had prepared ahead of time and said, âWe are just friends. Boss Zhou went on a business trip and will be gone for a few days. Yuanbao was worried about his little buddy after he found out and insisted on asking him out.â
Naturally, her little buddies didnât buy that. âHeâs the young master whoâs worth hundreds of billions. Howâs Boss Zhou feel comfortable enough to let you take him out?â
âMaybe Boss Zhou is just a very trusting person.â Yan Shuyu made up stuff without even thinking. âPlus, I am his young masterâs future cello instructor. They have already signed the contract over at the musical institution. Why wouldnât he trust me?â
The others didnât know much about music, but thinking that the musical institution decided to hire her after watching her performance, they figured she was good at it. Which would make sense that Boss Zhou would have her teach his child. Her little buddies were half convinced by her and all expressed their enthusiasm. âOkay, we will help take care of them when Yuanbao and the little young master are over.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
