Chapter 165 - How to broach the subject (3)
Zhang Yuanjia, who couldn’t figure out who his mom was with decided to give up . But then, he brought up a new request . “If Mommy can’t read me a story, can you sing me a song?”
The little kiddo surely knew how to barter . Yan Shuyu was amused and bartered with him . “Does that mean you will go to bed after I sing?”
Zhang Yuanbao agreed, and Yan Shuyu had him turn off his lamp on the night table, crawl into bed, and close his eyes . After the little kiddo did all those things, she started singing . She sang the same familiar song at Sunshine house -- “Little Leaping Frog” .
Before she started singing, she hadn’t forgotten about the man next to her and had given him a heads up when the little kiddo was distracted . “Em… let me sing him a song first . ”
Zhou Qinhe was probably curious too and nodded agreeably . Then Yan Shuyu started singing .
Under her influence, Zhang Yuanjia now knew this song like the back of his hand, so as soon as she started singing it, he started singing along . But his volume lowered gradually by the end of the first round . It wasn’t a difficult job to put a little kiddo to sleep . Yan Shuyu sang it a couple more times and only hung up on the phone after she heard rhythmic breathing coming from the other end . She smiled and said boastfully to the boss, “Mission accomplished . ”
Zhou Qinhe, his hands still on the steering wheel, turned and smiled at her . As a parent, he could relate to Yan Shuyu’s emotion at that moment .

Seeing that she had gotten off the phone, Boss Zhou started chitchatting with her, “Yuanbao has his own cellphone now?”
“It’s a smartwatch . The kind that you can only make calls on . ” Yan Shuyu explained simply . “I don’t want to get him a cellphone just yet . ”
“He can only talk to you on his phone?” The boss grasped it quickly .
Yan Shuyu nodded and Zhou Qinhe smiled and said, “That’s disappointing . I thought we would be able to talk to Yuanbao as well . ”

“Yeah,” said Yan Shuyu while she secretly praised Manager Yang on his great idea . Her son was already unreasonably fond of the boss when they couldn’t get hold of each other . She could only imagine what it’d be like if they have means to contact each other .
But that’s alright . The boss and her would go their own ways after today . Yan Shuyu felt very optimistic after she touched her purse where the check was . She was very patient today and didn’t blurb everything out on their way . She was determined to wait until they reached the restaurant and after she had a chance to try the legendary seafood porridge – if she was to tell him now, she might not be able to try the seafood porridge if the boss was in a bad mood .
They arrived at the restaurant as Yan Shuyu was having all sorts of ideas .
For some unknown reason, the boss booked a private room even though there were only the two of them this time . Yan Shuyu had been here once before so as the server took them toward the inner part of the restaurant, Yan Shuyu knew they wouldn’t be dining in the open area this time .

Yan Shuyu felt a bit awkward about that, but on second thought, she decided against saying anything about it . A private room is just as good . It would make it easy to have the conversation that they would be having .
She followed behind the server docilely without making a sound . Even Zhou Qinhe couldn't help but look over at her .
Yan Shuyu was still thinking about how to broach the subject and didn’t notice the look he gave her .
After showing them to the private room, the server said enthusiastically, “Please have a seat . Our chef had started your porridge an hour ago . I will bring it right up . ”
The server wasn’t lying about it . She came back with two others in a couple of minutes with their dishes . In addition to the steaming porridge, there were a few more dishes . After placing them in front of them, the server said the chef was preparing the remaining dishes and to enjoy their meal .
