Chapter 261 – Only she could take advantage of the boss. She couldn’t possibly let anyone else take advantage of him. (3)
With that, Yan Shuyu felt much reassured. She propped her feet up and started daydreaming about life inside of the luxurious apartment. Even just for one year was a good deal for her!
Before she could finish with her daydreaming, she was smacked not too hard on her knee. The boss had to watch her mannerism even as he was driving. “Put your leg down.”
“Oh.” Yan Shuyu, being lectured, quickly put down her leg and sat up properly.
She could hear Zhang Yuanjia and Zhou Yi’s giggling coming from behind her but that didn’t bother her. So what if the boss had lectured her some now that she was about to move into the luxurious place.
Yan Shuyu, who was already completely distracted by the luxurious place, suggested out of the blue, “Can we go look at the place after dinner? I really want to see how you have it remodeled.”
Even though the layout would be very similar to her little buddy’s, each place had its own style. Yan Shuyu couldn’t wait to check out the place that she would be staying at for the coming year. She would love to move in there tomorrow if only she could~
“Today?” The boss was thrown off by her abrupt change in attitude. Resigned, he said, “Secretary Lu has the key.”
Yan Shuyu understood that her request was very abrupt, so she nodded very understandably. “Okay. Then we go check it out tomorrow?”
“I probably won’t have time tomorrow.”
Yan Shuyu was not distressed but still very excited. “Can I get the key from Secretary Lu tomorrow so I can go take a look by myself?”
The boss gave her a tender look and said, “I have put a lot of work into preparing this gift for you. I’d like to go look at it with you.”
Yan Shuyu pursed her lips silently. She thought Secretary Lu was the one who did all of the heavy lifting. How was it a lot of work on his part now? That being said, she was very appreciative of the boss’s gesture and she had no resistance toward that loving look of his. Finally Yan Shuyu nodded happily, albeit a little disappointed, and said, “Alright.”
In the next few days that followed, Yan Shuyu did not go look at places again. She had a lot of faith in the boss. Even though she has yet to move in and hasn’t even seen the place yet, the boss had already reassured her that rent had already been paid. All she needed to do was wait to move in.
As such, when her little buddy expressed his concerns, Yan Shuyu told him the truth.
Yan Shuyu glossed over the details but just told her little buddy that the boss had already rented a place for her and paid for one year of rent in advance.
She felt that the reason was very compelling, but Manager Yang, upon hearing what she told him, had a peculiar look on him. “Rented it…. For a year?”
“Yeah,” said Yan Shuyu. “What’s wrong with that?”
“Did you see the rental agreement?”
“Oh, Secretary Lu was the one who took care of it so she has the rental agreement. I can’t possibly ask her for it,” said Yan Shuyu. Then, after a little bit more thought, she said, “He has no reason to lie to me anyway.”
Manager Yang thought that as much as she said she didn’t want a long-term relationship with Boss Zhou, her trust in him had been growing stronger every day. Woman. Hah.
As much as he thought that, he still agreed with her superficially. “That’s what I thought as well. I’m just a little bit surprised that someone as rich as Boss Zhou would rent a place.”
Yan Shuyu had no idea what was on her little buddy’s mind and agreed with him wholeheartedly. “I thought so too initially. But he told me that buying a place entails a lot of steps and with limited time, it was easier to rent the place first.”
Yang Zifeng, “……”
Only his little buddy would believe in an excuse like that. If Boss Zhou could have his secretary rent a place for him, needless to say, he wouldn’t need to lift a finger to buy a place either.
He felt that the boss was planning something big. That being said, as much as he had his suspicion, he dared not point it out. Mainly he could tell that his little buddy was very happy so he changed the subject without too much worry. “Awesome. You will be living upstairs of me from now on. We can hang out all the time and will never be bored.”
Now Yan Shuyu was able to fantasy about her luxurious new place with her little buddy as she waited for the boss to take her to check the place out.
The wait lasted all the way until the end of the month. The boss finally freed up and got the key from Secretary Lu. As such, the four of them headed straight toward the high-end mansion district at 4 PM that day. Being influenced by Yan Shuyu’s emotions, both Zhang Yuanjia and Zhou Yi had been looking forward to this event.
