Chapter 144 - Children’s Games at Galaxy Musical Institution (1)
After all the food and beverage, Zhang Yuanjia started to get sleepy. He didn’t feel it back in the restaurant when they were eating, drinking, and bickering. But now that his mother had carried him into the car, Zhang Yuanjia couldn't help but rub his eyes and said softly, “Mom, I’m sleepy.”
“Then close your eyes and take a small nap. You can even lean back in this seat. Comfortable, right?” Yan Shuyu patted the child’s seat. She wasn’t surprised that he was sleepy, after all, he had the habit of napping.
Thinking about it some, she looked up at the other little boy who was just placed in the car. “Xiao Yi, do you want to take a nap too?”
Zhou Yi also rubbed his eyes and said, “Yes.”
“Okay. Then both of you close your eyes and stop talking. We will be at the musical institution when you wake up.”
Zhou Qinhe, after buckling his son in, took a look at them and pulled out two blankets from the trunk of his car. One of them was quite big. He spread it out and covered both kids with it. He then handed the other one to Yan Shuyu.
“I am fine, really. I am not in the habit of taking naps. Hahaha.” Yan Shuyu was being polite verbally, but she accepted the warm and comfortable blanket from him. Once she got inside the car, she wasn’t shy at reclining the seat, wrapping herself up in the blanket, and happily starting to play on her cellphone.
With the one adult and two kids being so relaxed, Zhou Qinhe, who had been keeping himself busy, seemed more pitiful than ever.
When Yan Shuyu caught his side profile out of the corner of her eyes, she suddenly remembered why the boss didn’t have a chauffeur today. The back seat had already been taken by the two child seats and wouldn’t fit a third person. The passenger seat could hold one. With a chauffeur, there just wouldn’t be enough room for the four of them.
They could use two cars, but it’d seem both wasteful and not environmentally healthy having two cars for such a small event. It was much better for the boss to just drive.
After the sumptuous meal that afternoon, the boss had scored quite a few points with Yan Shuyu. She felt bad for the boss for two seconds seeing as how he had treated them to lunch and had to wait on them.
But she didn’t feel bad for too long. She spared all of a few seconds of attention for the boss before she was distracted by the internet. She yawned as she happily surfed the web. Slowly, she had also drifted off to sleep in a very unsightly way much like the two kids in the back.
Yan Shuyu, who hadn’t planned on taking a nap, was woken up by the boss. She felt that she had only napped for a few minutes, but when she looked at the clock and saw that it was almost 2 PM, she fretted a little. “We are going to be late.”
“No, we won’t. We are already here,” said the boss calmly.
Yan Shuyu looked out the window when she heard him say that and noticed that they were parked in a spot right in front of the musical institution. She gave him a thoughtful look and asked, “We have been here for a while?”
“No, not too long ago.”
Zhou Qinhe sounded nonchalantly, but Yan Shuyu got an odd sensation, like she was being pampered.
She must keep in mind that the boss, who made decisions on millions of yuan every minute, had put aside his million-yuan business transactions, stooped to their levels and took them out to lunch, played the role of their chauffeur, and even wasted his time on waiting on them when they had fallen asleep in his car. Even though the boss didn’t exactly do all those things for her and that his own son was also sleeping in the car, as part of the beneficiary, Yan Shuyu also felt slightly prideful.
Such a wealthy and gentlemanly boss, Yan Shuyu felt that she had let a big fish go by giving him up.
