The Male Lead’s Villainess Stepmother

Chapter 133 – Mathematics didn’t really work out that way (2)

“Okay, I will.” Zhou Yi seriously made a mental note before he brought up the real purpose of his call. “Aunty Yan, it’s the weekend tomorrow, will Yuanbao be at the shop?”

Yan Shuyu paused for a little after she heard that. Not so much from the little male lead’s question but his referring to her son by his nickname surprised her.

Her instant son used his nickname a lot, especially when he was around Yan Shuyu’s little buddies at work. Most of them had probably forgotten about his real name by now. She didn’t know when it started, but even Instructor Lin from his school started referring to him that way. When Yan Shuyu dropped her son off at school lately, she even heard some of the other kids referring to him as Yuanbao. Which was why she didn’t think too much when the boss also referred to him as Yuanbao just like everybody else. As the saying goes, devils are in the details. Naturally, the boss would notice something like that, for someone who had such attention to details.

But it completely caught her off guard that the male lead referred to his future cannon fodder stepbrother in such an intimate way. Her instant son would look up to the male lead’s father so much that after his mother married into the Zhou’s, he even voluntarily changed his name to Zhou Yuanjia. As such, there was no way he’d bring a childish name like “Yuanbao” into the male lead’s home. Even if he did, there was no way the male lead would refer to him as such. The two of them were doomed to be archnemesis.

Now that the male lead was so friendly toward her cannon fodder son, even to the point of using his nickname. Did that mean her son’s cannon fodder fate has officially started to be altered?

Yan Shuyu couldn’t read the boss, but she has some idea of the male lead’s personality. In the novel, it was said that the male lead was the distant CEO type who lacked love since childhood. The little male lead she has been in contact with was not yet withdrawn and has a lot of personality. It might not be easy to warm up to him, but judging from the way he was referring to her son, he had already officially accepted him as a friend and her son had also started his friendship with the male lead.

Once she got to this point of her thought process, Yan Shuyu became happy instantly. Even if she didn’t become his stepmother, her son being good friends with the male lead was a good thing too. The male lead has his male lead halo. It couldn’t go wrong being around him! She eagerly responded back to him, “Did you want to go play with Yuanbao-gege at Sunshine House? Tomorrow is not a good day. How about Sunday?”

The little male lead went silent for a little bit over the phone, as though he was pondering over it. Yan Shuyu had no choice but to wait for him patiently.

In reality, where she couldn’t see, Zhou Yi had moved the cellphone away from himself and turned and gave his father a troubled look. The father and son communicated for a bit with their eyes before he picked up the phone again. Using a serious but still very milky voice, he asked, “Does Yuanbao have plans tomorrow?”

As he was asking about Yuanbao and his voice was so harmless, Yan Shuyu didn’t even give it a second thought before she smiled and said, “Yes, he does. There are some activities at the musical institution tomorrow and we have already promised we will show up. So what say you two hang out on Sunday instead?”

Yan Shuyu was still working hard on nurturing the friendship between her son and the male lead when the caller on the other end had been switched. “Can we attend the activities tomorrow too?” Came Zhou Qinhe’s refined and cultured voice.

Yan Shuyu, who was completed blind-sided, “……”

Boss, how do you have so much free time as of late?

She was thinking that in her head but also blurted it out uncontrollably. Zhou Qinhe chuckled and said, “I haven’t had too much free time as of late, but thank you for asking. “

Oh, ho ho. Yan Shuyu was speechless.

Seeing that she has not yet responded to his question, he repeated himself again, “So is it okay tomorrow?”
