The Male Lead’s Villainess Stepmother
Chapter 194 - Miss Yan was even more powerful than how Louis and the others had described her (2)Chapter 194 – Miss Yan was even more powerful than how Louis and the others had described her (2)
Under the service of the young chauffeur, the baffled Yan Shuyu crawled inside of the car. When she got into the car, the boss was still standing motionlessly outside of the door. The chauffeur was smiling and holding onto the car door. That was when she realized that the boss was going to get inside of the car from the same side. She scooted further in.
As she scooted further inside of the car, the person sitting in the passenger seat also turned around and greeted her in a friendly manner. “Hi, Boss Zhou, Miss Yan.”
The woman was in her thirties. She has short hair and was wearing a business suit. She looked like the very competent type. The familiar aura coming from her reminded Yan Shuyu of the boss’s two elite assistants. She wondered whether this was another one of the boss’s elite right-hand people.
Yan Shuyu has always had an affinity toward career women. This being the first time the two of them met each other, she didn’t know how this woman knew that her last name was Yan. She didn’t think the boss would announce his relationship to the entire world just because the two of them were dating. She nodded hesitantly, “Hi, how are you?”
By now, Zhou Qinhe had already gotten inside of the car and affectionately introduced her, “This is Secretary Lu.”
So, more or less what she thought. She turned her attention to the boss and looked at him wisely, “You are not done with your work today yet?”
The chauffeur made sense, but once he was off work, he shouldn’t need his secretary to be around anymore. The boss wasn’t the kind of person who needed his secretary around to show how important of a person he was.
Zhou Qinhe praised Yan Shuyu for her very rational speculation. “Smart girl.”
Sometime down the line, the boss seemed to have fallen for a game of patting the pet. He stroked Yan Shuyu on her head again and smiled. “We will be heading to the airport after we drop you off.”
Secretary Lu looked at them quietly and exchanged a look with the chauffeur. Both of them felt that they should not be inside of the car; they should be underneath the car.
Truth be told, it was surprising enough that Boss Zhou, who has always had a very strong sense of time, called off a meeting early and requested to take off a whole hour before the schedule. What was even more eye-opening was that the boss interrupted the meeting just to come and pick someone up and then was lovey-dovey in front of the others. Had they not been with Boss Zhou this entire time, they’d think he had been taken over by some transmigrator. Being touchy-feely had never been his style.
That also meant that this Miss Yan was even more powerful than how Louis and the others had described her. Thinking of that, Secretary Lu suppressed the temptation of being nosey, lowered her head, and sat properly in her seat. She only wished that she was transparent.
As they had tried so hard to lower their sense of presence, Yan Shuyu gradually forgot about them. She turned and asked the boss, “Are you on your way to the airport right now? Going on your business trip?”
Zhou Qinhe nodded. Yan Shuyu wasn’t too surprised, but she raised her concern. “You are leaving today? Why did you come to pick me up then? What happens if you are late for your flight?”
“No worries,” said Zhou Qinhe with a smile. “My flight is not till 11 PM.”
Yan Shuyu felt better, but then she felt baffled all over again – Was there some sort of hidden agenda for him to be picking her up?
It was definitely his style to be so convoluted on such a minor issue. Yan Shuyu couldn’t help but grumbled in her heart. Nevertheless, she did have some self-awareness and offered, “Why don’t we just go straight to the airport then? I can see you off.”
She was surprised that the boss didn’t agree with her suggestion immediately but smiled and asked, “It’s a three-hour round trip to and from the airport. What are you going to do with Yuanbao if you go to see me off?”
