Chapter 156   – Did The Boss Have A Stepmother too? (1)

Yan Shuyu, who couldn’t figure out a solution immediately, went to work with a frown on her face. She was very dispirited throughout the day and wasn’t even in the mood to joke around with her little buddies. When Manager Yang asked her to join him in the game, she came very close to asking him for advice. He’s a man too so he should know of ways that would make other men lose interest?

But after she gave that idea some more thought, had Manager Yang had that kind of EQ, he wouldn’t still be single. So she decided against asking him for advice. She didn’t want to provide her little buddies more subjects to gossip about when she couldn’t find a solution to her problem.

Yan Shuyu gave him a very loaded look and finally chose to remain silent.Yang Zifeng had no idea what went through his little buddy’s mind, but he was able to read her “you are hopeless” look after she had looked at him a few times. He felt very unjust. “All I asked was for you to join me to fight the BOSS in a game. Is it that difficult, really?”

Yan Shuyu waved her hand. With a profound look, she said to him, “Pass. I am pondering about the meaning of life.”

Manager Yang: “……”

Her reaction was making him want to ponder about the meaning of life – was he really that bad in the game?

Just when everybody was pondering about the meaning of life, a very special guest arrived at the coffee shop. When a little buddy came to notify Yan Shuyu, she even gave her a lowdown softly, “It’s a very wealthy-looking woman with a Hermes purse and driving a Ferrari. She frowned as soon as she walked inside the shop, as though our shop wasn’t good enough for her. Her tone was very arrogant as well. She just asked whether you are here and said you had to go meet her… Well, I don’t think she came in peace.” The little buddy looked at Yan Shuyu with curiosity as she gave her the lowdown. “Say, Yanyan, how did you end up offending a rich woman like that?”

Yan Shuyu, too, was baffled. “But I don’t even know any rich woman.”

Sherry, her little buddy, thought that made a lot of sense. As she walked out with Yan Shuyu, she said to her softly, “You play it by the ear, okay? Her manner might be imposing, but there is only one of her. If she tries to get violent, you just shout loudly.”

Yan Shuyu: “……”

She felt that her little buddy was exaggerated a little bit. Nonetheless, she started to get nervous.

After walking out of Manager Yang’s office, Yan Shuyu could see the wealthy woman that her little buddy had told her about. She immediately let out a sigh of relief. Nope, she had never seen her before. Must just be a misunderstanding. Even if it wasn’t a misunderstanding, it couldn’t be that big of a deal.

Yan Shuyu, thinking optimistically, patted Sherry on her hand. Then, she turned toward Manager Yang, who was worriedly following behind them and said with confidence, “Don’t worry. I got this.”

Both Yang Zifeng and Sherry, seeing how confident she was, decided to stop worrying about her and walked away.

This was, after all, a place of business. If the other party bore no ill will, it would be rude to be too overly defensive. They were better off going back to what they were doing.

Yan Shuyu quickly walked over to the wealthy woman and greeted her politely. “Good afternoon, Madam. You are looking for me?”

She was going to address her as “Miss”, but judging from her look, as much as she was well-maintained, she was at least in her forties or fifties. That, on top of her fanciful outfit, Yan Shuyu suddenly felt that “Madam” would be more fitting.

She was also addressed as “Madam” when she went to the seafood feast with the boss, so she gathered that rich people would probably prefer that title better.
