Chapter 188 – He wanted to see how long the attentiveness that she showed today would last (2)

Yan Shuyu smiled until the elevator doors closed in front of her. She rubbed the area that the boss kissed and went back home. She couldn’t shake the feeling that the boss acted like he was just teasing a kitten or a puppy.

That being said, she didn’t dare to say anything, so she just went back to her little nest feeling a little blue.

Yan Shuyu was busy after parting with the boss. First thing first, she gave Instructor Lin a call and made plans to drop her son off at the musical institution tomorrow. She also expressed that he would be staying there until closing time before she would be able to pick him up.

Luckily, Instructor Lin expressed that Yuanbao was very welcomed. She even smiled and added, “If you don’t have time, we can drop Yuanbao off Sunshine House or at your place.”

Embarrassed, Yan Shuyu declined her offer. “No, that’s alright. I will be able to pick him up myself.”

Having completed the boss’s task, Yan Shuyu set her cellphone aside and brought over a bucket of hot water from the bathroom to clean the little kiddo who was already sound asleep. Then, she put a fresh set of pajamas on him. She was sweating by the time she had finished doing that. Yan Shuyu quickly went to remove her own makeup and shower, followed by her skincare procedures. She went straight to bed when she was all done. Once again, she missed the goodnight text from the boss.

Before Boss Zhou went to bed, he shook his head in resignation as he looked at his WeChat screen. Amused, his lips pulled back a little. He wanted to see how long the attentiveness that she showed today would last.

And the truth was, Boss Zhou’s “how many days” had already overestimated Yan Shuyu. Her respect for the boss didn’t even make it 24 hours. When she got up the next morning, she told her instant son that due to some unforeseeable circumstances, she needed to drop him off at the musical institution. As she was talking, Yan Shuyu had an odd feeling about it – the boss was the kind of boss with chivalry carved into his bones. He had never made a request that put her in a difficult position the entire time that she had known him. So what was up with him last night?

She gave it some more thought and came to the conclusion that she was being too nice to the boss and he was taking a mile when given an inch. He thought he could be the boss of her now.

Never would she have guessed that he could be a jerk like that and learned to take advantage of the situation for his own benefit.

Yan Shuyu immediately felt that she had been taken advantage of. She couldn’t be a pushover anymore. When she was straight up rude to the boss, not only did he not retaliate, he did everything as asked. That went to show that she didn’t need to be tender and thoughtful to the boss. She’s a little fairy, she could be a spoiled brat while they were in a relationship. Perhaps that is exactly how the boss liked it.

Yan Shuyu suddenly felt very confident all over again.

That being said, she had already made a promise with the boss and made arrangements with Instructor Lin. She couldn’t go back on that now. She continued to sweet talk the not-so-happy little kiddo. “If you’re a good kid and go to the musical institution today, Mommy will take you to the amusement park next week?”

The smart little boy had learned to barter. “I need to spend my entire day at the musical institution today, so we get to spend the entire day at the amusement park next time too!”

If they went to the amusement park, of course they’d spend all day there. Yan Shuyu nodded pressure-free. “Okay. I promise.”

That’s when Zhang Yuanjia smiled again and went to change obediently.

It was 9 o’clock in the morning and the mother and son duo were all set to head out. Zhang Yuanjia thought he and his mother would be taking the subway to the musical institution, but as soon as they walked out of their building, they saw the familiar-looking car again. Dear Uncle Zhou standing next to the car smiling at them.

The little kiddo slowed down in his steps and gave his mother a curious look. Yan Shuyu, too, put on a surprised look and asked the boss rudely, “Why are you here again?”

Zhou Qinhe paused for a little. He hadn’t expected her attitude to have a 180 degree change so quickly. She was so attentive just the night before and now she was back to her rude self.

But he was much better at acting than she was. He didn’t let the mother and son duo read a bit of what was going through his mind at all. His smile was gentle and graceful. “I just happened to be in the area. Where are you two going?”

These types of reasons didn’t hold any water at all, but it still worked on a 5-year-old child.

Yan Shuyu, overacting, smiled and said, “What a coincidence? We are heading to the musical institution.”

“That’s on my way. Why don’t I give you a ride?”

“Sure. Why not?” Yan Shuyu quickly walked over to him with the little kiddo in tow.

Baffled, Zhang Yuanjia rubbed the back of his head. Something felt off, but he couldn’t quite figure it out. Nevertheless, he still let Uncle Zhou put him in the car and thanked him politely. “Thank you, Uncle Zhou.”

Life was but a show and all one could rely on was one’s acting skill. Yan Shuyu gave herself a thumbs-up for her incredible acting skill before she, as usual, let herself into the passenger seat and buckled herself up.
