Yan Shuyu, with her phone in her left hand and her son in her right, walked toward the car. At the same time, she said in a surprised tone, âHave you been waiting long? I thought we came down before our meeting time already.â
âNo, we just got here as well,â said Zhou Qinhe with a smile. âParking isnât easy over here, so I didnât walk up to you.â
Yan Shuyu didnât feel that she was so exalted that she needed the boss to walk up to her for the few steps over to his car. Quite contrarily, she was very surprised. From what the boss said, it sounded like he drove himself today. She seemed to recall that kids were not allowed to sit in the passenger seat. So when she got into the car, should she sit in the back with her son or politely take the passenger seat?
Once she walked up to the car, she realized that she had overthought it. Zhou Yi was, indeed, sitting properly in the back seat. And, next to his car seat, there was another car seat. The two car seats had taken up the entire back seat. If she didnât want to sit in the passenger seat, then her only other option would be the trunk.
Naturally, Yan Shuyu wasnât entirely happy about that, âYou even prepared an extra childâs seat. How thoughtfulâ¦â
Zhou Qinhe got out of the car and personally put Zhang Yuanjia into the seat and buckled him up as he explained nonchalantly, âNeither one of them are over 7 years old. Itâs safer for them to be in childâs seats.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
As the boss was being so thoughtful and with her sonâs best interest in mind, Yan Shuyu has even less room to complain. She would just have to be displeased about that.
That was when the little male lead tried very hard to lean over from inside the car and said, âHi, Aunty Yan.â
âHi, Xiao Yi,â said Yan Shuyu as she bent down to see him. She seemed to have noticed the little male lead carrying something in his hand. She quickly walked over to the other side and Zhou Yi opened up the window from inside the car and handed a rose over to her. âThis is for you, Aunty Yan. Itsâ from my dad and I.â
âYou and your dad?â Yan Shuyu was pleasantly surprised and at the same time, a bit baffled. She felt that one rose was very out of character for the bossâs nouveau richeâs style. If he was going to give her flowers, shouldnât it be like a bundle of 99 roses?
Wait, what? Why did the male lead and his dad gave her a rose for no reason?
The little male lead went and explained, âThis is the prettiest flower in our garden. I picked it out myself and dad cut it off. Itâs a gift for you, Aunty Yan.â
Yan Shuyu looked at the flower that was trimmed and wrapped prettier than one from a florist and thought to herself that the bossâs employees at home were certainly very talented. They even knew how to package a rose.
But a gift like that certainly made her very happy. âI like it a lot. Thank you so much.â
As the saying goes, pretty flowers always go with pretty women. Shameless Yan Shuyu, on the other hand, naturally thought that only a fiery red, delicate, and alluring red rose could go along with her incredible beauty. Most importantly, this was from the bossâs garden. He must have only given it to her because he found the rose pretty and that there was no special meaning associated with it. Naturally, she very much appreciated it.
With the flower in hand, Yan Shuyu happily climbed into the passenger seat. As all her attention had been diverted by the rose, she was no longer dwelling over having to sit in the passenger seat. In her previous life, her boyfriend was just a student and was very limited when it came to being romantic. Which was why the hint of romance suggested by a flower that was hand picked struck her immediately. Yan Shuyu liked it so much that she couldnât let go of it. She took a lot of pictures of it. When they arrived at their destination, she even carried it with her out of the car.
Zhou Qinhe, who was completely forgotten: ââ¦â¦â
