The Male Lead’s Villainess Stepmother - Chapter 146

Chapter 146 – Children’s Games at Galaxy Musical Institution (3)

She wanted to explain how the boss was interested in her previously, but she held her ground and refused to bow down in the face of money and turned him down. But then again, she had already explicitly turned down the boss, providing Manager Yang with all the details would add no value other than giving him gossiping materials. So she decided to keep the “story” to herself and made her counterattack. “That’s because you caught me off guard. What was that all about?”

Yang Zifeng: “……”

At the end of the day, the activity today was about the kids, so as soon Zhang Yuanjia and Zhou Yi had arrived, an instructor came and took them to meet the other kids, one of them being Tongtong, whom Zhang Yuanjia likes a lot. As such, Zhang Yuanjia held Zhou Yi’s hand like a big brother as they followed behind the instructor.

Now that the kiddos are gone and the boss is being entertained by the male god, Yan Shuyu has all the time in the world to chat with her little buddy.

Perhaps, they were too carried away while chatting, so the boss seemed to have felt ignored.

Zhou Qinhe silently casted Yan Shuyu a glance then. Smiling at Liu Ci, he asked, “Yanyan said there are lots of fun activities planned today. When do they start?”

Just as Liu Ci had had guessed previously, it was now confirmed that Boss Zhou was, indeed, brought here by Yan Shuyu. He casted Yan Shuyu an appreciative look. She was such a worthwhile friend; giving her the cello was totally worth it.

He had mainly decided to hire her for the sake of Zhang Yuanjia. But now, he started looking forward slightly to the day she had completed her certificate examination and started as an employee.

Yan Shuyu, suddenly cued by the male god, returned with a dazed look while clutching her cellphone. That’s when she heard Male God Liu say to them, “The activities are about to start. Follow me.”

Yang Zifeng wasn’t entirely kidding when he said Yan Shuyu was on his team. The guests today were mainly the kids, for the purpose of warming them up for Galaxy Musical Institution’s official grand opening next month. As these kids were student hopefuls, they figured the best way to encourage enthusiasm from the kids was to have a lot of games with their participation.

In order to encourage the parents to join in, Liu Ci and his team had also prepared plenty of sizeable gifts for the parents as well.

Participants were to form teams of four. Had Zhou Qinhe not decided to barge in at the last minute, Yan Shuyu and Manager Yan would have formed a team together. But now that Zhou Qinhe stood blatantly next to Yan Shuyu, Yang Zifeng had no intention to compete with him, so he rationally held his niece’s hand and said to her, “I’ll go find myself some teammates.”

Having eaten the boss’s sumptuous lunch, Yan Shuyu had no grounds to ask Manager Yang to stay. She had no choice but to wave at him and said, “Good luck!”

Truth be told, what Manager Yan needed wasn’t luck. Naturally all the games planned by the musical institution had to do with music, which Yang Zifeng knew nothing about. So as soon as the competition started, Yan Shuyu just saw everybody passed her little buddy by the troves. They were eliminated before round two was even over. By now, Yan Shuyu was very happy that she wasn’t on the same team as Manager Yang.

What happened next made Yan Shuyu even happier. The boss, who seemingly had no interest in anything other than making money and scheming, turned out to be a treasure trove waiting to be discovered. He seemed to possess expertise in the areas of music, chess, literature, and painting. And the two kids were each better than the next.

With teammates like that, Yan Shuyu didn’t have to do much to win the games. She barely did anything before they took first prize – 30 free lessons at the institution in the musical instrument of the student’s choice.
