Chapter 102 - The Flirty Boss (2)
When Boss Zhou extended the job offer to her a few days ago, Yan Shuyu surely had to exercise all of her determination in order to turn down the temptation . But she truly felt that episode wasn’t a big deal to someone like the boss . Afterall, a CEO from such a prominent family could very likely be described as controlling the ups and downs of several million dollars every minute .

And, even so, Yan Shuyu had to wonder if her imagination has been limited by her poverty state . Could the amounts she had in mind would be offensive to someone of the boss’s status? For someone who’s time and brain power were as precious as they were for Boss Zhou, how could he possibly keep such a minute issue in mind?
Never in a million years would she have imagined that not only did the boss keep it in mind, he had further brought it up in front of everyone today just to put her on the spot before he dropped the subject and just left without elaborating much on it .
Zhou Qinhe had already left . If he was still there, even Yan Shuyu wanted to ask him what was his intention .

Looking at how anxious her little buddies were, she started worrying whether she’d live to see another day if she just told them the truth . So she went silent for a little bit and embellished the incident irresponsibility, “Perhaps Boss Zhou was very offended that I turned him down?”
After being quiet for a couple of seconds, the little kiddos were even more emotional than they were before . “So NOW you admit that Boss Zhou is pursuing you?”
“No! Wait! That’s NOT what I am saying!” Yan Shuyu was just messing around with them . She hadn’t expected it to result in such a major misunderstanding . She didn’t even know where to begin to explain herself . “What I am trying to say was that I had ungratefully turned down his offer to get me a job and he felt offended by that, which was why he was so petty about it . ”

It was obvious that nobody believed Yan Shuyu anymore .
Sherry, still the lead on this, crossed her arms in front of herself and asked again, “Alright, then tell us why wouldn’t you want to join a corporation like the Zhou’s?”
If this question came up just a day ago, Yan Shuyu would be totally speechless . After all, the excuse that she had given the boss wouldn’t work with this crowd at all . Any normal human being would know which to choose between being a white collar working at a corporation ranked top #500 worldwide versus being a server at a coffee shop . And she was poor, not some WRP who just wanted a job to “experience life” . It wouldn’t make any sense for her to give up a well-paid, cozy, and stable job just because she liked the work environment at the coffee shop better .
But now, Yan Shuyu didn’t feel trapped at all .
She said with confidence, “Truth be told, I was, of course, very tempted when he brought it up . But I figured that we aren’t that close and it was such a big favor so I finally turned it down . Afterall, it’d be okay even if I don’t go to work for Zhou’s Corporation . I have already decided to work in the capacity of an instructor at the musical institution once I have earned by certificate . Instructor Liu and Instructor Lin had already tentatively agreed . And I’d be with Yuanbao to and from work going forward, which is a better option anyway…”
Even though the boss called her out at the very critical moment, he didn’t pursue it to the end after all . Plus, Manager Yang also jumped in to help her out and was able to get her out of the awkward situation . There was no uncertainty in Liu Ci’s decision . He even told her definitely that his musical institution’s grand opening is next month and that she was welcomed to start next month even if she still hasn’t received her certification . This way, she could get familiar with the environment and settle in . She could start teaching classes after she has earned her certification by year end .
