Chapter 230 – He really wanted to ask his girlfriend whether she got the key takeaway (1)
The WeChat from Yan Shuyu to the boss was simple and crude. It simply stated that the two little dinosaurs wanted to video chat with him and asked whether he was available. She had already had her share of chatting with the boss over dinner and now the draw of the boss was way less than that of removing her makeup and showering. She connected the phone, handed it to the two boys waiting next to her, and walked inside the bathroom with her pajamas.
The bathroom was still reasonably soundproof. Once the door was closed, one could barely hear what was going on outside. Yan Shuyu quickly remembered that she had forgotten to remind them to not talk for too long. It was already bedtime.
But then she realized that the boss was a very busy man. Even if he had time to chat with them, he’d at most have about two minutes or so. They shouldn’t be on the phone for too long. It would not be necessary for her to remind them. She then settled for happily removing her makeup and giving herself a massage.
She had underestimated Boss Zhou’s patience with the little kids. Yan Shuyu busied herself for 10 minutes and even finished her skincare routine. When she finally cheerfully walked out of the bathroom, the two little dinosaurs were still squeezed together and rambling on with their arms and legs waving in the air.
Surprised, Yan Shuyu stopped on her tracks and remained where she was.
She didn’t make a sound, but Zhang Yuanjia and Zhou Yi did not overlook her. The both looked up at the same time and waved at her happily. “Mom/Aunty Yan, c’mon over…”
Yan Shuyu walked over there but only sat down on the bed and asked gently, “It’s getting so late already. Aren’t you two tired?”
The little kiddos were quite tired, especially Zhang Yuanjia. If Yan Shuyu was to look close enough, she would see that his eyes were already turning red. As such, he took a look at the cellphone and asked docilely, “Mom, do you want to say goodnight to Uncle Zhou?”Yan Shuyu wanted to say that would not be necessary when the boss’s melodious voice came over the phone after hearing their conversation. “Yanyan?”
Zhou Yi nicely handed the cellphone over to Yan Shuyu. Yan Shuyu couldn’t possibly turn him down so she stroked his face and took the cellphone from him.
Yan Shuyu didn’t want to video chat with the boss without makeup on, but she was very confident with her current look. That being said, as far as looks were concerned, the boss wasn’t half bad himself either. Not only was he so handsome that made others have a hard time keeping their knees together, his natural-born noble temperament made it look like he had halos on all the time. His entire person was out of this world. So, if only looks were considered, it was difficult to say who was the reacher here.
With such an amazing boyfriend, Yan Shuyu had to always shoot for her best and hoped that she was very pretty every time the two of them met up.
Unfortunately, both the kiddos wanted to watch her chat with the boss, so Yan Shuyu would have to go along with them. She found the best angle of herself and the first thing that she did was to ask the boss, “Do I look different today?”
She figured the boss was the kind of straight male who couldn’t tell whether a woman has makeup on anyway, so it really wouldn’t matter if she did have it on or not.
Unfortunately, she had underestimated the boss. He noticed it right away and pointed it out. “You’ve just showered and removed your makeup?”
The boss’ look was gentle, but Yan Shuyu was still unhappy about it. Pointing with disappointment, she said, “You are good.”
Whatever happened to the innocent straight male?
“It was obvious.” Without giving Yan Shuyu a change to get upset, Boss Zhou looked at her tenderly and caringly, “You looked 4-5 years younger. Even younger than some college students…”
“You are very pretty.” Zhou Qinhe’s voice became deeper and deeper. The last two words sounded like they had rolled around in his mouth before he enunciated them and also sounded very suggestive.
