Stepmom Male Lead Villain

Chapter 46

Manager Yang, returning from taking care of the bills, suddenly stopped in his step. He had a sudden bad feeling for some strange reason. He was sitting there the whole time. Even if Boss Zhou didn't know about it beforehand, how could he not notice it as long as he chatted with Yanyan? He only asked after dinner was over? Is Boss Zhou really “late” or is there another reason behind it?

Yang Zifeng felt that there was no way someone as observant as Boss Zhou would be the first case.

Sure enough, the boss asked gently the next minute, "So Which Manager will join you after dinner?"

Manager Yang could not hear what the boss was saying from a distance, but he could see his little friend nodding heartlessly. "Maybe."

"Maybe?" ask the boss carefully. "You made a plan?"

“No, not really,” Yan Shuyu explained, “But Manager Yang did not mention that he had other plans tonight, so I guess he will go with us.”

Oh, so you two have been together for so long that there has been a tacit understanding between the two of you? Nevertheless, the boss smiled and asked, “Isn't it better if you ask his opinion before making a decision for him?”

"What is it?" Yan Shuyu had never been a stubborn person. A serious look at the boss made him certain. Lamenting how thorough a boss was, he nodded in understanding and said, "Okay, let me ask him."

As soon as he finished saying that, he saw his little friend standing not too far away from him from the corner of his eye. He quickly waved at her and asked, "Manager Yang, are you coming with us?"

Manager Yang initially felt that his little friend's question was very unnecessary. But, thinking of Boss Zhou, he suddenly understood. How did Boss Zhou have so much free time these days? To the extent that he started a video chat with Yan Shuyu as soon as they sat down and the call lasted until the end of the dinner, leaving no time for Yanyan to eat. So, overall, Boss Zhou simply did not want him to get too close to Yanyan as he left.

Indeed, with Boss Zhou's intelligence, he definitely knew that there was nothing more than friendship between the two of them. That is, Boss Zhou's jealousy was not directed at him; it was aimed at any adult men around Yanyan. Yang Zifeng, after coming to a conclusion, had to regret how someone as carefree as Boss Zhou was a jealous man deep down.

This is just the beginning of their relationship. Manager Yang wondered how his little friend was convinced that he could break up with someone as domineering as Boss Zhou peacefully.

Lamenting in his mind was one thing, Manager Yang would not have the guts to remind his little friend of that. Saving himself would be the right thing to do in this situation. He immediately shook his head, smiled, and said, “No, I will pass. I will meet some friends online to play the game. You're having fun. ”

“Eh?” Yan Shuyu, who had only asked for formality, was greatly shocked. "You didn't mention it before?"

Yang Zifeng walked over and continued to lie through his teeth. “Oh yes, I made plans at dinner. You were on the phone with Boss Zhou so I didn't mention it. ”

Yan Shuyu did not pay attention to whether Manager Yang had made plans with his friends at dinner, so she nodded unsuspectingly and said, “OK, hurry up then. We will go alone.”

He admired his boss even more now. He was very right about that.

The boss, in a video chat, did not take any credit. Seeing that they had reached an agreement, he said, “OK, you have fun. I'll go to work now.”

Yan Shuyu kept her cell phone, and they all went to the underground parking lot. They got into each other's cars and headed their own way.

Distracted by the boss, Yan Shuyu finally remembered to ask the children after they got into the car. "You haven't told me where you want to go."

The little ones have reached an agreement before. The two said at the same time, "Bumper car!"

Learning the lesson, Yan Shuyu turned around and said solemnly, “Oke. We could go for a bumper car, but only for an hour. Then we'll go home. No disputes.”

The two little boys nodded obediently, but Yan Shuyu, feeling that it was not good enough, made them promise before she had Zhang Yang take them to the square. The kids played happily for an hour. And then, as if a timer was beeping, they told Yan Shuyu right at 20:40 together, "Mom/Aunt Yan, the time is up."

Both Zhang Yuanjia and Zhou Yi had watches. Yan Shuyu, on the other hand, was the one who did not have it. She couldn't possibly have her phone with her while she was playing bumper cars, so she asked her two children to watch the time and asked them to watch each other. The technique seems to work very well.

Yan Shuyu got off the bumper car, delighted. "OKAY. Time is up. Come home~”

The two little boys, who were loyal to their words, agreed to let Yan Shuyu take them out of the car. Except that there was a lot of yearning on the face of the little male leader on their way back.

Zhang Yuanjia might not have been to many places when he was a child, but ever since the fun-loving Yan Shuyu moved in, he had taken him to various places. Therefore, he was less disappointed on the way back. Compared to him, this was like an entirely new world to the little male leader of a prestigious family. Being able to play the game in a public place with her beloved little friend and Aunt Yan, it was difficult for her to leave, especially since she did not know when the next time she could come out to play with them again.

Zhang Yuanjia, as if reading his little friend's mind suddenly grabbed his hand and asked, "Have you been to the amusement park before?"

Little Zhou Yi blinked his eyes blankly. "Amusement Park?"

“Small backpack that you have used the last few days. Mom bought it when she went to the amusement park before. I also have the exact same~”

Reminded by Zhang Yuanjia, the leader of the little man said as if perplexed, "No, I have never."

"I don't either. Mom said I was too young before and couldn't ride many rides.” Zhang Yuanjia kindly comforted his little friend and then asked, “But Mom said she would take me there this week. Will you come with us?”

Zhou Yi's eyes were beaming. It was clear that he really wanted to say yes immediately, but then he looked at Yan Shuyu obediently and asked, "Aunt Yan, may I come along?"

Yan Shuyu thought about it in her head. The boss should be back before the weekend and he will be able to take care of his son. It shouldn't be too much work for her, so she smiled and nodded. "Of course."

The two boys were quick to talk about what an amusement park would look like in their imaginations excitedly. One of them said there was a big tiger they could ride. Others said they could be friends with Peppa Pig there. All sorts of kids talking and crazy ideas. As a mature adult, Yan Shuyu could not join in their conversation. Even so, he was not bored. He excitedly pulled out his phone and texted the boss, telling him that the two boys had agreed to go to the theme park next weekend.

As the boss, Boss Zhou would not chat on the phone during work/meeting, but taking a short break and sending an SMS to his girlfriend was fine. Therefore, Yan Shuyu quickly received her response. As he expected, the boss said that he would return to the countryside by then and they could all leave together.

Yan Shuyu gave him "okay", then he texted again, "I have to go to work tomorrow and Yuanbao has to go to school. What about Xiao Yi? Is someone going to pick him up?”

This time the boss did not respond for two whole minutes. "Ask him what he wants to do tomorrow."

Yan Shuyu felt a bit strange. Does the authoritarian boss listen to his advice and become more liberal? That's not a bad thing. Surely, he felt quite proud of his own achievements, but why would he have to ask the little male lead tomorrow? Why didn't he ask today?

Yan Shuyu, having a pretty good idea about this, quickly replied "it worked" back to the boss before he put down his phone and got out of the car. Just as he was about to thank Zhang Yang for taking the two boys out of the car, he heard him say enthusiastically, "Miss Yan, let me walk with you."

"unneeded. We can go back alone. You can take off now. ”

As soon as he finished saying that, Yan Shuyu saw Zhang Yang pull out a sizable suitcase from the trunk of the car. She smiled at him and said, “I have the luggage of the little young master here. It's pretty heavy. Let me take it for you. ”

Yan Shuyu looked at the child backpack in her hand and was stunned. "Isn't this her luggage?"

Why would he need such a big suitcase for just one night? Isn't that a little overdone?

The butler was worried that the little young master had not taken everything himself, so he packed up again, Zhang Yang explained with a smile. "He also prepared some for Young Master Yuanbao as well."

After the past few times, Zhang Yuanbao had also switched from "Young Master Zhang" to an affectionate "Youth Master Yuanbao" with Uncle Zhang. He seemed to really like the title and smiled at Uncle Zhang with curvy eyes.

Yan Shuyu had no choice but to nod wordlessly. "OKAY. Thank you for your help then.”

He's too stupid. How could he really think that a small backpack would be enough for the little young master to come and be a guest of the house in his house? Come to think of it, of course a large suitcase like the one Zhang Yang brought would be good enough for the little young master.

Boss Zhou was a very special person so anyone who could work with him in the long run would also be perfect in their work. Zhang Yang brought the suitcase to the front door. Before Yan Shuyu said a word, he immediately revealed that, “Nona Yang, the two young masters. I'll go out now.”

Even if Yan Shuyu felt that she should share the pleasantries and offer a cup of tea or something, she would not be able to when she looked like she was in a hurry. He waved and smiled at her. “May your journey be safe then.”

Zhang Yang nodded and left with quick steps. Yan Shuyu watched him walk away for a while before she turned around and opened her front door. The two boys next to him had been waiting the entire time, especially the little male lead. As soon as the front door opened, his mouth gaped and he let out a stupid cry. “It's so small!”

The little young master looked at the apartment that was smaller than the bathroom in his house. There was no hatred or discomfort in his eyes. Quite the contrary, his eyes were filled with astonishment. It was not the reaction Yan Shuyu had expected, but he did not think too much about it. He just felt that the little male lead had incredible adaptability and along with that, a little heartache. The rich, of course, have a very interesting perspective on things. "His "noble apartment" that spent thousands of yuan a month turned into a nostalgic item in the eyes of the prestigious family's young master. Ouch.

Even Yan Shuyu almost started to hate the rich. Zhang Yuanjia's mood, on the other hand, was very balanced. She considers the miracle of her little friend as a compliment and holds her hand vigorously as she speaks, “Ya. Do you like it? Let me show you around! ”

Zhou Yi nodded seriously. "All right."

As excited as Zhang Yuanjia was with his little friend who had come as a guest for the first time, he had not forgotten his rules. Holding his little friend's hand, he said to her, “Let's go. Let's change our shoes first. Mom spends a lot of time mopping the floor so that the floor is not dirty.”

The next second, the extremely excited little host fell silent as he looked at their shoe rack. “Um... It looks like we don't have any slippers for you..”.

Yan Shuyu saw the two of them standing up from the front door and wanted to bring them in as well. He suggested casually, “Why don't the two of you decide which of you will wear slippers and the others can walk in with their socks on? I just mopped the floor yesterday, still pretty clean.”

Zhou Yi revealed in a very mature way to let Yuanbao have sandals before he crouched down to take off his own shoes. It was just that he was a bit in a hurry and fell down and landed on his butt. Maybe it doesn't hurt. He just rubbed his butt and kept taking off his shoes.

Zhang Yuanjia, as if saying something, crouched down to take off his shoes as well. She became 6 months older, she quickly caught up with her little friend. Since the little young master was about to fall to the floor while trying to crouch down, it was clear that he was often pampered. Zhang Yuanjia, on the other hand, had been very independent since he was a child and was naturally more efficient than his little friend.

Yan Shuyu did not pay much attention to the other details. When he realized it, the two boys were already standing next to their socks. Zhou Yi saw Zhang Yuanjia put the shoes he had taken off onto a simple shoe rack and imitated them and put his own leather shoes there as well. And then, neither of them noticed the pair of small, fuzzy slippers before they ran to the apartment holding hands.

They were so excited that Yan Shuyu did not want to remind them that they had forgotten their sandals. He just said to them, “Now your socks are on the floor, don't get into bed before taking a shower. Did you hear me?

Both Zhang Yuanbao and little Zhou Yi acknowledged it and then Zhang Yuanjia, like a good host, started introducing the items in the house to his little friend. “This is an electric piano given to me by Tongtong. It's a little smaller than the original piano, which is why we were able to have it inside our apartment. This is the cello given to my mother by Instructor Liu. I also took cello lessons. It's too late tonight and Mommy says we can't bother our neighbors. We can train together tomorrow.”

This may be the first time the young master, with his custom-made and most up-to-date piano, has seen a "mini" small piano". He gave me "Oh mi!" in response and Zhang Yuanjia was pleased. She was even more excited than before when she brought her little friend to the window and shared with him, “This is a storybook that mom read to me before I went to bed. And then this is the toy you've given me. I play with him every day!”

Zhang Yuanbao was fine taking care of his little guest by himself. Yan Shuyu would not complain about that. He changed his own shoes and boiled some drinking water for later before he dragged the little man leader's suitcase to the bedside. There was more space there, and he could open his suitcase.

Zhou Yi's cartoon backpack was sitting on a small table. He did not trouble Aunt Yan for that. He carried all of it alone as he walked inside the house.

Yan Shuyu was also casually sitting on the floor as she consulted the leader of the little man. “Xiao Yi, you two have fun. Do you want me to arrange your suitcase for you?

It wasn't that he really wanted to do that, but there were only the three of them inside the apartment. He couldn't possibly rely on Zhang Yuanjia or Zhou Yi for that.

Yan Shuyu knew very well that he would not be able to dodge this bullet. He might as well straighten this out so that he could sleep early.

"Thank you, Auntie Yan," Zhou Yi said politely as he slid down from the window and the jug broke out in front of Yan Shuyu. It seems like he realized that this was troublesome. Unfortunately, as soon as he came, Zhang Yuanjia also came. That small area wasn't even enough to put the suitcase.

Yan Shuyu waved at the two of them impatiently and said, “I'll arrange this slowly. You two go and entertain yourself. ”

The kids were a few steps away from him. Then, with a roll of his eyes, Zhang Yuanjia said proudly to his little friend, "Xiao Yi, I will treat you to a cake."

He then pitter rattled to the fridge.

This was the refrigerator that the landlord had prepared for them. It is half a meter tall and has only one compartment. Yan Shuyu usually kept ice cream or snacks inside. The size of the compartment is almost the same as a regular refrigerator. They are so big because they do not cook at home. Most importantly, it was not too high so Zhang Yuanjia could get most of the items inside without any help from Yan Shuyu.

The cake she was referring to was a pastry cake with nuts made by a pastry chef at Sunshine House. Ever since Yan Shuyu joined the Sunshine House, it had become increasingly famous. Now that a few months have passed, it has gone from being a "small viral coffee shop" to just a "viral coffee shop". They have a constant flow of healthy traffic every day.

The words say that many visitors outside the city will search for their place specifically. The coffee shop has two floors and the area is quite large. Expansion is not required. Manager Yang, however, hired more help to accommodate the increased traffic. He even recruited a pastry chef at the end of last month for a hefty sum.

As a coffee shop, cakes and other pastries are required. The price is also not cheap, but when ordered from the outside, it feels just plain. There's nothing special to talk about. With the arrival of a new pastry chef, they can offer new products every few days in addition to their regular menu. Their income from pastries has also increased.
