Chapter 170 - Boss Zhou, who could see a thousand steps ahead, met his Waterloo (2)
At first, it didn’t have to be her . It was just that he hadn’t been with anyone for the last two years since his divorce, and she happened to offer herself up . She was quite good looking, and they were very compatible . Plus, she was good at it . Many had tried playing hard to get with him, but she was the only one who had succeeded . So he thought perhaps he could give her a chance, and that there would be more enjoyment in his life .
Up until that point, she had done exactly that . Except that even Boss Zhou, who could see a thousand steps ahead, met his Waterloo . As it turned out, the woman whom he thought was playing hard to get, her interest in him was nothing but a spur of the moment thing . She couldn’t get away from him faster now that she had piqued his interest . He should be upset, but instead, his interest in her had increased .
This was the first time he had pursued a woman, but this had offered him no difficulty at all . Yan Shuyu was a woman who wore all of her emotions on her face . All he needed to do was to play to her weakness . It was an entirely stress-free ordeal as far as he was concerned . Rather, he very much enjoyed the display of how she’d go from very resentful at first to her eventual lost expression and giving in to temptation . Which was why he kept things at a comfortable pace and didn’t mind a long and convoluted process of courting her .
Nonetheless, he didn’t expect that he’d really have fallen for her .

All of a sudden, Zhou Qinhe has sorted out his own feelings – because he was truly interested in her, that’s why he was angered by her wanting to have nothing to do with him and why he had suddenly lost all interest in continuing this cat and mouse game .
Surprisingly, this wasn’t a bad feeling either . He didn’t mind to be more interested and for a longer period of time . Granted, this couldn’t be 100% one-sided . Fondness should be a two-way street .
Having it all figured out, Zhou Qinhe’s lips curved upward a little, and he happily leaned into Yan Shuyu . He asked casually, “Oh, why not?”

Even though Zhou Qinhe had thoroughly thought everything out, as far as Yan Shuyu was concerned, it was just a brief moment . The blush on her cheeks was still there . Hearing the boss’s straightforward question out of the blue, she blushed all over again . And this time, the boss was observing her from a close distance . Once could only imagine how shameful she was feeling at this very moment .
Stuttering, Yan Shuyu couldn’t force out the answer . “This… that… . No reason…”
Why didn’t she want the boss’s check? Of course Yan Shuyu knew the answer within herself . Both the checks from the rich woman or the boss were money, cold hard cash, and either would be enough for her to become an instant millionaire . In theory, she should like them both equally .

Except that, she knew the boss very well . He’s rich, but he’s not silly . There was a limit to his generosity . Yan Shuyu has a pretty good idea . Whether she accepts the check from the boss or the rich woman, they both came with strings attached . The rich woman’s request was for her to leave Boss Zhou; the boss’s request would most likely be the exact opposite .
At the current way that things were going, Yan Shuyu did not resent too much about dating the boss . After all, he had made her lose out on 2 million yuan . If the boss was willing to repay that with his body, her little fragile heart would at least receive some comfort – lost the money but gained a male god level boyfriend . At least, she didn’t lose both money and the person .
Part of the reason for her change of heart must be accredited to the rich woman’s words . The rich woman had made it abundantly clear that the boss was just messing around with her . For someone like him, he has a very high requirement for his other half . She must at least be a lady from a prestigious family like his ex-wife to be the new Mrs . Zhou . Which meant that as long as she didn’t have the stupid idea of wanting to marry into a prestigious family to be the stepmother of the male lead, the boss would not pro-actively want to get married . So, the final outcome would just be that they would get together for a little bit, then each would go their own ways .
That would be the perfect outcome as far as she was concerned . She could bed the boss as much as she wants and not have to be the male lead’s stepmother . She must have been the galaxy savior in her past life to have luck like this in her current one .
