Stepmom Male Lead Villain

Stepmom Male Lead Villain
Chapter 32



Yan Shuyu, who was unable to immediately find a solution, went to work with a frown on her face. He was desperate all day and did not even want to joke with his little friends. When Manager Yang asked him to join him in the game, he almost asked for his advice. He was also a man so he should know a way that could make other men lose interest?


But after he thought about the idea again, had Manager Yang had such an EQ, he would not have remained single. So he decided not to ask for his advice. He did not want to give his little friends more topics to gossip about when he could not find a solution to his problem.


Yan Shuyu gave him a attentive look and finally chose to remain silent.


Yang Zifeng did not know what was on his little friend's mind, but he could read the gaze of "you're desperate" after he looked at her a few times. He feels very unfair. “All I ask is for you to join me to fight BOSS in a game. Is it that hard, really?”


Yan Shuyu waved her hand. With a deep look, he said to her, “Leave. I thought about the meaning of life. ”


Which Manager: “....”.


His reaction made him want to ponder about the meaning of life – was he really that bad in the game?


Just as everyone was pondering about the meaning of life, a very special guest arrived at the coffee shop. When a little friend came to tell Yan Shuyu, he even gave her a low tone, “This is a woman who looks very rich with Hermes purse and drives a Ferrari. He frowned as soon as he walked inside the store, as if our shop wasn't good enough for him. His tone was also very arrogant. He just asked if you were here and said you should go see him. The little friend looked at Yan Shuyu curiously as he gave her a lowdown. "Say, Yanyan, how could you offend such a rich woman?"


Yan Shuyu was also confused. “But I don't even know any rich women. ”


Sherry, her little friend, thinks it makes perfect sense. As she walked out with Yan Shuyu, she said to him gently, “You played it in the ear, okay? His attitude might be impressive, but there was only one of them. If he tries to do violence, you can simply shout out loud. ”


Yan Shuyu: “..


He felt that his little friend was a little overrated. Despite this, he started to get nervous.


After walking out of Manager Yang's office, Yan Shuyu was able to see the rich woman that her little friend had told her about. He immediately breathed a sigh of relief. No, he's never seen her before. It must have been a misunderstanding. Even if it wasn't a misunderstanding, it wouldn't be a big deal.


Yan Shuyu, thinking optimistically, patted Sherry's hand. Then, he turned towards Manager Yang, who anxiously followed behind them and said confidently, “Don't worry. I understand . ”


Both Yang Zifeng and Sherry, seeing how confident he was, decided to stop worrying about him and leave.


After all, this is a business place. If the other party had no ill intentions, it would be impolite to be too defensive. They better get back to what they did.


Yan Shuyu quickly walked up to the rich lady and greeted her politely. “Good afternoon, Madam. You looking for me?”


He would call her "Miss", but judging from her appearance, even though she was well-preserved, she was at least in her forties or fifties. That, on top of her fantastic clothes, Yan Shuyu suddenly felt that "Mistress" would be more fitting.


She was also called as "Mrs" when she went to a seafood party with her boss, so she concluded that the rich might prefer the title.


Yan Shuyu might be enthusiastic and friendly, but the graceful and solemn rich lady, sitting with her back straight, did not seem to be very friendly. He raised his chin and looked at Yan Shuyu indifferently. Yan Shuyu immediately felt that she was being weighed and the result was obviously disappointing because there was hatred in the eyes of the rich lady.


Even without any effort to hide that hatred, the woman said, “So, you are Yan Shuyu? You don't see any of it. Oh yes it is . Sit . ”


My attitude-show-you-compassion-with-let-you-sit-of-the-sit from the rich lady was very offensive to Yan Shuyu. He always believed that he was very talented and outstanding. And, now that she even had a very beautiful body, arguably "the most beautiful of all", so how dare a rich woman look down on her?


Plus, they had never even met before. This random rich lady who came out of nowhere decided to underestimate him for no reason. Sekaya seems, it still doesn't change the fact that she has a mental problem. He did not need to sit down and chat with someone with mental issues.


Yan Shuyu took a deep breath and decided to return to being her non-confrontational little elf. There was no need for him to get involved with this obviously sick rich lady. He looked at her and was about to turn around and leave when he heard the annoyed words suddenly coming out of the rich lady, “The immature girl. I don't understand what Qinhe sees in you. ”


He knows the boss? Yan Shuyu, stunned for a while, and pulled back her legs that were already heading in another direction. Now, it makes sense that the rich lady was a member of the boss family. Even he did not feel that he was good enough for the boss, so it was only natural that the Zhou family members would look down on him.


Yan Shuyu was unhappy with the rich lady's arrogant attitude, but she thought the rich lady might be here to offer her help on the matter that had bothered her so much lately, maybe he could spend some time talking to her.


Yan Shuyu persuaded herself to sit down, but she was not at all as friendly as just a moment ago. Cold and with an untouchable atmosphere, he said, "What do you want from me?"


He had just learned it on the spot from the rich lady. Naturally, the rich lady was much better than him in terms of being stuck. Just lifting his chin was enough for him to convey his unbearable arrogance. The words from him were also severe, “Yan Shuyu, born from the lower classes. It has been useless since an early age. You've quit school and eloped with your gangster girlfriend. You have no skills and also no luck, your gangster girlfriend was killed in a street fight shortly after your child was born. After losing that meal ticket, instead of finding a decent job, you decide to switch to the red light district. You can take a girl out of her element, but you can't take the element out of her.”.


Yan Shuyu: “..


Is he here to offer his help or seek a beating?


“But, you have your own way. Despite being so lucky, you, somehow, can still get in touch with Qinhe. Do you think that she'll be your golden eating ticket, take you to the upper class, and that you won't have to worry about anything else for the rest of your life after you marry her?


No, that was not what Yan Shuyu had thought. His biggest thought right now was regret. He should not, out of his own desperation, think that this woman was here to offer her help to him. As the saying goes, You don't go for a Jugular when you want to help someone.


This rich lady with her beautiful clothes was extremely cruel, as if she wanted to stab her heart with every word. If her age was not too far away, Yan Shuyu would guess that she had stolen the man of a rich woman that caused her to have hatred towards herself.


Well, there was no reason to continue this conversation, so Yan Shuyu was about to get up and leave again. Nonetheless, before he could follow through, the rich lady sitting opposite him chuckled. Most likely thinking that now that he had placed Yan Shuyu in his place, he was now able to move to his main destination.


He tapped on the top of the table with his index finger which had an emerald green ring on it. With a hint of impatience in his contemptuous voice, he said, "With that, what do you need to leave Qinhe?"


Yan Shuyu, who was just about to leave, sat back down obediently. She could not help but ask, "So, you are the mother of Boss Zhou?"


What a familiar development.


A hint of resentment caused by embarrassment flashed in the eyes of Qin Luoyi, the rich woman.


He felt that his daughter and Boss Zhou were a suitable match in heaven. As long as she could take care of this little girl in front of her, she would naturally become Boss Zhou's mother-in-law in due time. But they are, however, unrelated at the moment. Yan Shuyu's question made Qin Luoyi feel challenged and humiliated.


Qin Luoyi did not originally think that it must be Zhou Qinhe. With his high status, if this was his first marriage, even his niece from the family side might not be good enough for him. But now it's his second marriage, they'll try it. He should at least try to fight for his daughter.


He did understand the concept that certain things could not be forced. He even spoke to Xie Yuxuan as they looked at Yan Shuyu. Had the woman been half good, they would have given up. There was no need to make enemies even if they could not marry into a family.


It was very clear that such a woman would never marry Zhou, so why should they retreat from an ideal son-in-law like Zhou Qinhe for such a woman?


Qin Luoyi felt a strong sense of unfairness.


Even so, he did not need to stoop too low to come to talk to Yan Shuyu directly. Boss Zhou would not marry her one way or another. All they needed to do was maintain a good relationship with Boss Zhou and never needed to acknowledge the existence of this woman.


Except for some additional information from Xie Yuxuan actually bothering Qin Luoi – the day of their first meeting happened to be the coffee shop where this virgin had just started working. He even acted very innocently and performed for them. Boss Zhou never asked Yuxuan out again after that. According to their research, she has been visiting coffee shops frequently ever since.


Whatisit? Did the woman just use her daughter as a stepping stone to steal her daughter's man?


Qin Luoyi would not let it slide. She might not have had a great marriage and her husband did not have a very high status among their circles, but in those days, she was Young Miss Qin. How could he let such a virgin walk around himself and his daughter?


That was the reason Qin Luoyi decided to come and meet Yan Shuyu in person.


That, of course, is only a small part of the reason. What was more important was that Yan Shuyu started to present a threat to Qin Luoyi.


Naturally, Qin Luoyi did not know nor would he believe that it was Zhou Qinhe who was chasing after Yan Shuyu. In his mind, the fact that a woman from a background like Yan Shuyu had only managed to lure Boss Zhou meant that, other than her appearance, she was also definitely very manipulative. He must have done a lot of research to be able to use his daughter as a stepping stone.


Such women may have high ideals but fail to analyze the situation comprehensively. She probably thought that the biggest hurdle between her and marrying Zhou was the ideal candidate of Boss Zhou, Yuxuan, whom she had dated. And as long as he could get rid of Yuxuan, he would not have to worry anymore.


Boss Zhou had never asked her to date Yuxuan again since her last date. He thought it must be a useful job from this little girl.


Therefore, they could not just lie down and take it. They had to give Yan Shuyu a lesson that she could not just use others like that – and that was the true purpose of her visit.


In other words, he was here to stake his claim. He would not show the slightest bit of hospitality and he, since walking inside the shop, maintained his unbearable and untouchable arrogance.


As he thought, Yan Shuyu was indeed manipulative as he expected. He gave her no reaction at all after everything she said. He was shameless and brave. That would explain how he was able to utilize Boss Zhou while he was working at the Dorsett Hotel.


Qin Luoyi was now even more worried than before. He felt that he had been scorned by the seemingly indifferent words of Yan Shuyu. Suppressing his anger, he made himself seem very right when he said to him, “Kor less. ”


More or less?


Yan Shuyu was a little confused. Does the boss have his own stepmother? He doesn't seem to remember ever reading about it in a book.


The rich lady sitting opposite him didn't want to be involved with him any longer. With a very fake smile, she said to him, “Little girl, happy to have a dream. But let me give you some advice, greed is endless. With your appearance, you may be able to find a good enough husband if you lower your standards a little. You will then be set for the rest of your life. However, if you insist on staying with Zhou Qinhe, you will probably lose your money and your chance and in the end make nothing. ”


"How do you know I will lose myself and my chance at money in the end?" yan Shuyu asked with great sincerity.


Wasn't he the only one who had read the script before?


Qin Luoyi's face fell. “Do I need to tell you Zhou status? I'm sure you've done your own research. Even in ancient times they were nobles. The Zhou family has businesses all over the world, and they have invested in almost all areas. Many of their companies are listed in the world's top 500. They can be considered as tycoons. Now let's look at your status. Do you really think you can be Mrs. Zhou?”


Oh, so that's what the rich lady meant. Yan Shuyu finally understood what he was talking about. Although the rich lady sounded very convincing, she still felt somewhat unsure. "Are you sure that Boss Zhou will never marry me?"


But "he" is Miss. Zhou for 20 good years in novels.


Yan Shuyu's intentions were not joking at all. Instead, he really wanted to know what Qin Luoyi had in mind to prevent her from becoming Ny. Zhou.


Nevertheless, from Qin Luoyi's point of view, he thought that Yan Shuyu was stubborn and did not care about what she said at all.


Qin Luoyi was furious. He imagined that now that this girl had associated herself with Boss Zhou, she was like a dog whose teeth sank into the bone. There's no way to get him to let go.


He sneered and said, “Am I sure? Could it be clearer? Let alone anything else, Zhou Qinhe's ex-wife, who was Zhou Yi's mother; you have met Zhou Yi, right? She's beautiful in our circle. Your appearance may be above average among ordinary people, but it is nowhere near the appearance of Zhou Qinhe's ex-wife. ”


To be honest, Qin Luoyi did not really think that Boss Zhou's ex-wife was all that. At least in his mind, his daughter was the best and the perfect match for Zhou Qinhe. But, even if Boss Zhou's ex-wife wasn't that perfect, she was still someone outside of Yan Shuyu's league.


Nonetheless, Boss Zhou's former wife's appearance and family background were certainly perfect, even when compared to her Yuxuan. That was why Qin Luoyi praised him repeatedly in front of Yan Shuyu, wanting to force Yan Shuyu to retreat.


“Not only is she the prettiest girl in our circle, she is also multi-talented and Lin's favorite. Their marriage was created as a couple made in heaven. And if someone like Ms. Lin was unable to maintain her position. Zhou, what makes you think that you will be able to?”


Hearing him describe the boss's ex-wife like she is a fairy straight from the storybook, Yan Shuyu was stunned – her appearance was about her best nature, but she was not even the prettiest woman the boss had ever seen. His ex-wife is prettier and more like a fairy than he is. So ... what did he see in him then?


But he didn't spend too much time thinking about it. After all, Yan Shuyu did not have too many feelings for her boss. At most, there was some arrogance in him. It meant that he would not experience any sense of inferiority after listening to Qin Luoyi's description. He thought it was more like listening to a story.


The male lead's biological mother, the boss's ex-wife, wasn't even mentioned in the book at all. No offense, but he had just assumed that he had died prematurely. But from what the rich lady said, it seems like she just divorced her boss?


Now Yan Shuyu was very curious. "Why did Boss Zhou part with his ex-wife?"


What happened to the matches made in heaven?


Qin Luo: ……


Why did he suddenly feel that he had given his opponent a lot of information?


But he's already here. Rest assured, he won't stop now. Qin Luoyi continued trying to knock down Yan Shuyu's confidence. She said to him coldly, “Unconcilable differences in the end. Not every woman can take that place next to her. Do you really think he's going to marry you just because he's kind of interested in you right now?


Too bad . Yan Shuyu had indeed thought so until the rich lady appeared. She assumed that the boss was seducing her, so she could become the male lead's stepmother.


Now that he had listened to the analysis of the rich lady, Yan Shuyu suddenly realized that she was thinking too much about this – boss was just chasing after her because her technique was rather good, and they fit in the bed. He just wants a normal relationship. His family still has very high standards. The only reason the stepmother in the novel could be his wife was because she had spent a lot of time and manpower working on the boss and the male lead. In other words, as long as he didn't work too hard for it, the boss wouldn't voluntarily talk about marriage.
