The Male Lead’s Villainess Stepmother - Chapter 70

Chapter 70 – The Legendary French Cuisine (2)

She shook her head and got rid of that crazy imagination of hers before she said to the boss solemnly, “Then you must promise me that you won’t make a sound and not let the kiddo found out.” As they couldn’t reach an agreement, she had no choice but to buck under pressure. The two of them couldn’t just keep on sitting here with her hitting the “Decline” button.

Zhou Qinhe raised his brows. This was the first time he had received such a “warning” and he found that quite novel. He nodded and said agreeably, “Okay.”

That had finally calmed her nerves a little, so she clicked on “Accept” before the request disappeared. Quickly, her instant son’s cute face appeared on her cellphone screen.

The kiddo had been raised quite well by Yan Shuyu recently. Having good food with his mother every day had filled up his cheeks, and he looked even cuter than he was before. But that also meant he was even more lively when he felt wronged. With a pout, he looked like a puffed-up little bun.

Right now, the little boy on the other end of the video chat pouted and demanded an answer with a wronged look, “How come mommy didn’t answer Yuanbao’s call?”

It had finally dawned on Yan Shuyu that it was Yuanbao who kept sending requests. She didn’t think Manager Yang would have too much free time on hand.

Yang Zifeng was driving and couldn’t join the video chat, but he still teased, “Yanyan, your Yuanbao was so persistent. He didn’t want the toys or cupcakes that I brought, but just wanted to call you. I was starting to get worried about what to do if you don’t pick up.”

“Ah, thank you so much, Manager Yang.” Yan Shuyu thanked him. In truth, she was oddly proud having heard what he had said. Her son was both smart and persistent. Her dream of him becoming very successful in life just might happen.

Of course, it’s not always a good thing to be too stubborn at all times, such as right now. The kiddo, still hasn’t gotten an answer from his mother, asked again persistently, “How come mommy didn’t pick up the phone earlier?”

Yan Shuyu was an expert as muddling when it came to the kiddo. She didn’t even blink an eye when she said, “That’s because my movie is about to start, and I’m afraid I wouldn’t have time to chat with you.”

“What movie is mommy going to watch?” asked the kiddo curiously, obviously side-tracked by her. The boss, on the side, gave her a look that suggested a faint smile, as though making fun of how she could just make this stuff up on the fly. But that didn’t bother Yan Shuyu at all, as long as the boss didn’t come over to get her son’s attention. She continued to muddle through with her instant son, “There’s nothing you’d like today. Mommy will take Yuanbao to the theater when they play a good animation, okay?”

“Okay!” nodded the kiddo full of anticipation.

The mother and son chatted for a little longer, and it was time to line up to get into the theater. Yan Shuyu bid her son farewell with no hesitation, “Mommy’s movie is about to start. You go play with Yang-ge ge, okay? Kiss, kiss.”

The kiddo also stuck his lips out and blow her a kiss back before the screen went black. Yan Shuyu put her cellphone back into her purse as she stood up and was about to tell her buddy, uh no, the boss to get ready before she noticed that the boss was all ready with the popcorn in his left hand, the cola in his right, and her bags of clothes dangling from his wrist.

Any other man would have lost all appeal with the entire set of “burdens”, but not the boss. His natural born chic and exaltation was completely unaffected. His slender body was still incredibly attractive. He smiled at her and said, “Let’s go in.”

Yan Shuyu nodded heartlessly, “Okay!”
