Chapter 199 - Arranging for a Playdate (1)
Under little kiddo Zhang Yuanbao’s persistent whining, Yan Shuyu finally gave in to his unreasonable request .
When she nodded her agreement, she had found herself a few great excuses such as the little kiddo was particularly stubborn and refused to go to bed if she didn’t agree . The closer her son was to the little male lead, the better it was . In comparison, what’s hurting her reputation a little bit? Not to mention that time would prove the rumors wrong anyway . So on and so forth . All in all, she refused to admit that she has a soft spot and that she couldn’t turn down her young son .
As usual, Yan Shuyu was not one who dwelled on things that were in the past . Once she had promised her instant son, she stopped dwelling on it . Patted the little kiddo on his head, she said to him, “Are you happy now? Can we go to bed now?”
Zhang Yuanjia looked up and smiled .
Yan Shuyu said again, “As you have not been a good boy tonight, we are cancelling story-telling . Now close your eyes and go to sleep . ”
Zhang Yuanjia was pretty sleepy after the whole fiasco . He didn’t object much to his mother’s punishment and just closed his eyes docilely . Seeing how cooperative he was, Yan Shuyu felt a sense of achievement as well . She felt that she was a good parent who used a good balance between rewards and punishments . She, too, quickly turned the lights off and happily went to sleep .

When the mother and son duo were sound asleep, Zhou Qinhe, who was waiting in the VIP lounge, never received a reply on WeChat . He couldn’t even get upset anymore but just shook his head and smiled . Then he sent over two more texts . “I’m boarding now . Estimated arrival time is tomorrow afternoon . Sleep tight . ”
As usual, Yan Shuyu didn’t see the WeChat texts till the next morning, at least she docilely checked her cellphone first thing in the morning . Sure enough, she saw that the boss had sent her quite a few messages . Yan Shuyu smiled sweetly . She could feel her head getting bigger and bigger . The boss had never texted her so much at one go before .
Now that she was appeased, it was necessary for her to appease the boss as well . Yan Shuyu quickly typed up the content: “I accidentally fell asleep last night again . Do remember to give me a call after you have landed . ”
Whether she looked too smug or that Zhang Yuanjia was a very sensitive boy, the little kiddo pitter pattered in front of Yan Shuyu immediately after she sent out the texts and asked in anticipation, “Mommy, are you chatting with Uncle Zhou?”

“I have just sent him a text on WeChat . Your Uncle Zhou is still on the plane right now and can’t chat . ”
The little kiddo let out a disappointed “Oh”, then asked again, “What time is Uncle Zhou getting off the ploane?”
“When will Uncle Zhou get off the ploane huh…” said Yan Shuyu as she mimicked her son’s pronunciation in bad taste . Nevertheless, Zhong Yuhuan was already used to his mother making fun of him and only looked at her calmly, showing no signs that he was being made fun of . Not getting the reaction that she had anticipated, Yan Shuyu gave up and switched back to her normal self . “I heard in the afternoon . The flight is over ten hours long . Tsk tsk tsk . That’s such a tough trip . ”
It wasn’t easy being a domineering CEO, needing to fly all over the world on business trips .

She felt compassion for the boss half-heartedly for about a second, but Zhang Yuanjia, on the other hand, chimed in sincerely, “Yeah . Uncle Zhou works so hard . ”
Yan Shuyu, “……”
He might work really hard, but he’s still a domineering CEO who determined the fate of millions of yuan every second . Darling, you should save your compassion for your mother who has to work really hard for her money!
Nevertheless, Yan Shuyu did not say that out loud . She worried that the little kiddo would, once again, take her rambling seriously .
