Chapter 213 - To make the point that she didn’t want to become the little male lead’s stepmother (3)
After witnessing the defeat on his little young master, Zhang Yang finally shared the fact that he lived with the little young master . Yan Shuyu looked at the little male lead regretfully and said, “Then maybe we shouldn’t make Uncle Zhang make two trips . It’s a waste of time and not environmentally conscious . How about he takes Yuanbao and I home first?”
The little male lead was much more agreeable now . He nodded and said lightly, “Okay . ”
They all piled into the car and went back to their respective places .
After she had successfully handled two very intelligent little kids, Yan Shuyu was still very excited mentally despite being tired physically . After little kiddo Zhang Yuanbao had showered and climbed into bed, it was already 9:30 PM, but Yan Shuyu wasn’t tired at all . She was humming when she went into the bathroom with her change of clothes in hand, and her performance never stopped through her entire shower .
The boss timed it perfectly . Yan Shuyu’s phone that was sitting on top of the sink rang right after she had finished showering and put her clothes on . Yan Shuyu picked up the phone as she walked out and took a look . She saw that her son didn’t even wait for her to be done and his little body was already rising and falling rhythmically . She turned off the lamp by the bed, covered her own mouth with her hand, and went back inside the bathroom . “Yuanbao is already asleep…”

“They’ve both had so much fun today . I just called home and Xiao Yi had already fallen asleep in the car . He didn’t even wake up when they carried him inside the house and bathed him,” said Boss Zhou gently . “Thank you for your hard work today, Yanyan . ”
Yan Shuyu indeed felt that she had put in a lot of hard work tonight, so she accepted his gratitude freely . Leaning against the bathroom door, she smiled and asked him, “I thought you went to take care of work . How come you have time to call me?”
Zhou Qinhe smiled and said, “I squeezed some time out . I’m heading into the office right now . ”
Yan Shuyu remembered the boss had mentioned an important meeting at 9 o’clock . It’s probably almost time to start the work day .

Granted, the boss squeezing out time to call her long distance amidst his busy schedule made her feel very flattered . Pleased, Yan Shuyu shared with him in a complacent tone, “I almost had to call you up for some extra help earlier . ”
Zhou Qinhe played along with her, “Oh really? What happened?”
Yan Shuyu told him the entire incident of how the two kids were having so much fun with the bumper cars that they refused to leave and how when they finally agreed to leave, they wanted Xiao Yi to come stay over at her place . Naturally, during her recount of the incident, she emphasized on how smart she was when she went against the two kids . Sure enough, after listening to her, the boss praised her, “They can be very difficult to handle . Yanyan is so smart . ”
Before her tail could stick straight up, the boss followed up with, “But why didn’t you want to take Xiao Yi with you? Does he fuss a lot?”

“Of course not . ” Yan Shuyu shook her head reflexively . She didn’t just say that to be nice to the boss . The little male lead was not a troublesome child . And even if he was to come over to her place, there would be little kiddo Zhang Yuanbao who’d help out in hosting him . Meaning, having to take care of the both of them at the same time really wasn’t a problem .
Boss Zhou’s tone was cheerful but also very persistent . Chuckling, he asked again, “Then what is it?”
Yan Shuyu was speechless all of a sudden . To keep a distance, of course . To make the point that she didn’t want to become the little male lead’s stepmother .
But what could she say? Dating the boss wasn’t bad . The fact that they were calling each other multiple times daily truly felt like they were in a relationship . Even though they both knew full well that their relationship wouldn’t end in marriage, that was more “understood but not stated” . It would not be the same when said out loud . More likely than not, it’d even affect their current relationship .
