Chapter 145 - Children’s Games at Galaxy Musical Institution (2)
But her feeling of regret didn’t last very long. She was back to reality shortly and proceeded to unbuckling herself, bringing her seat back up, and folding up the blanket. After she had recharged her entire health bar, she pushed open the door and said loudly, “Kiddos, it’s time to get up! The sun is shining on your butts already!”
The “kiddos” woke up one by one and stretched. Then, they were carried out of the car.
Yan Shuyu, who was well fed and well rested, continued to hold onto one kid in each hand and proceeded to walk into the musical institution with her head held high. The very next second, she heard the accusatory voice of Manage Yang, “Yanyan, you brought Boss Zhou? You promised me you will be on my team!”
Manager Yang looked at her with the grief and indignation equivalent to that of someone who had just caught his lover cheating on him, and the boss gave her a smile that was not a smile. Yan Shuyu felt her head throbbing. “No, I didn’t. I wasn’t… we are all friends. Naturally I have to extend the invitation to you when something fun is going on.”
Liu Ci, who happened to notice them, walked over to greet them as well. “Boss Zhou, Yanyan, you have arrived…”
Liu Ci didn’t know that Boss Zhou was going to attend until just now.
Nevertheless, they had met once before. After their meeting last time, Liu Ci looked up Zhou Qinhe afterward and confirmed that he was, indeed, the legendary Boss Zhou. He was emotional about that. Just the thought that he had just started his business and they weren’t even qualified to solicit venture capitalist, an opportunity to meet a bankroller such as Boss Zhou was naturally very exciting. Mainly, Liu Ci felt that the way they met was such a coincidence and that it would never happen again.
He didn’t expect Yan Shuyu to do him a solid and bring him such a big surprise in such a manner. Liu Ci was pleasantly surprised and naturally gave them his passionate welcome.
His behavior had helped out Yan Shuyu indirectly.
Yan Shuyu let out a sigh of relief when the boss finally stopped looking at her. She immediately received a text from Manager Yang on her phone and this time he was much more normal. “How come you brought Boss Zhou with you?”
Yan Shuyu summarized it for him. “Boss Zhou’s son wanted to hang out with Yuanbao and I slipped and told him about this event, then they decided to come with for the fun of it.”
“Okay, I can understand them wanting to come. But do you need to come together?” Yang Zifeng was no idiot. “I offered to pick you up, but you turned me down.”
Yan Shuyu felt that it was much easier to take the subway instead of having Yang Zifeng pick them up. But when he put it that way, now it sounded like she had ditched a friend for a guy. She explained herself quickly, “Boss Zhou wanted to take us out for lunch to show his appreciation, which was why we came over together after lunch.”
“Oh? Where did he take you?”
“Seafood.” Yan Shuyu thought about it for a second and also gave him the name of the restaurant.
“Tsk tsk tsk…” Manager Yang looked it up, gave her a profound look, and continued sending her messages on WeChat. “And here you told me that there is nothing going on between the two of you. You are totally overreacting right now.”
Yang Zifeng’s look wasn’t as profound as that of Boss Zhou. There were certainly advantages to being difficult to read. To Yang Zifeng and the lot, Boss Zhou had always been difficult to read, so they couldn’t tell much right now.
Yan Shuyu: “……”
