Chapter 82 - The Boss’s Tempting Offer (1)
That’s right. Instructor Lin, whom Yan Shuyu was dying to meet hasn’t showed up, but the super busy CEO Zhou, on the other hand, came to visit Sunshine house again.
Yan Shuyu felt a complication emotion about the boss’s visit this time. She wasn’t sure if it was a good or bad thing that he came on a Friday night instead of over the weekend.
She was supposed to meet up with Instructor Lin over the weekend. Whether that would be Saturday or Sunday would be up to Instructor Lin; Yan Shuyu would be at Sunshine House anyway. They had also coordinated with the other party involved in this – Zhang Yuanbao was to hang around the store over the next couple of days, so he could also meet his future teacher in person and bring up any opinions or suggestions that he may have.
Normally, the parents could make these types of decisions, and it wouldn’t matter whether Zhang Yuanjia was there in person. But since Yan Shuyu was new at parenting, she’d like to think of herself as someone who’s awesome and progressive. She preferred to discuss with her son than to make all the decisions for him, even though he was only five years old.
After consulting with her instant son, when Yan Shuyu dropped him off at school the next time, she gave Teacher Lin a heads up. Teacher Lin expressed that their rehearsal was almost done and little kiddo Zhong Yuhuan was one of the ones that picked up the quickest and had the best performance. It would be okay for him to miss one weekend of rehearsal.
That was how happy kiddo Zhang Yuanbao’s weekend plan was set. If Zhou Qinhe also happened to show up over the weekend, he just might run into the kiddo. Yan Shuyu would worry that the story would unfold like it did in the novel and that her instant son would be crazy about the male lead’s father. If she could have her way, the two of them would never meet each other again.
That being said, it was pure luck that the big boss decided to go visit on a Friday instead. If his past pattern held true, he wouldn’t be back again for another 10 days to two weeks. By then, her son would have entered into his new pattern of going between his kindergarten, music school, and home and wouldn’t have time to go to the store anymore. The boss could be there with the male lead every single day, and she would have nothing to worry about.
Thinking of that, Yan Shuyu’s headache was gone. Her heart was no longer pounding. When the boss walked past her, she even gave him a happy smile to greet him before looking down and continuing with her performance.
In the past, Zhou Qinhe had only been here during the afternoon tea time in the past. Today, he came here at almost 8 PM this time, the same as the other white-collared workers.
Sunshine House was very conveniently located next to shopping malls and office buildings, so most of their clientele were the white-collared workers going there to relax for a bit after work and dinner. It was also a favorite spot for meetups for office workers; as such, 7~8 PM was the busiest time of the store.
And, this was also the fixed performance time for Yan Shuyu.
A pretty face was welcomed anywhere. Yan Shuyu had been at Sunshine House for over a month and had became the biggest attraction of the store. Half of the customers during this hour came here to see her perform.
The coffee shop that normally has a quiet ambience was now jammed packed with customers, yet it wasn’t boisterous at all. As soon as Yan Shuyu sat down in front of the piano, everyone would lower their volume in sync and focused their attention at the middle of the room. As concentrated as they were, anyone who didn’t know better would think this was some sort of a concert hall.
