The Male Lead’s Villainess Stepmother

Chapter 104 – The Flirty Boss (4)

If there were no way of avoiding it, she might as well take the lead on it. Perhaps the boss would feel very well respected and let her off the hook easily? With her wishful thinking in mind, Yan Shuyu walked straight up to the boss. She greeted him as she walked in front of him, “Hello, Boss Zhou, what a coincidence. Are you waiting for someone here?”

Yan Shuyu was just making conversations. She hadn’t expected Zhou Qinhe to turn around, looked at her for a couple seconds, and said meaningfully, “Indeed I am.”

For some odd reasons, Yan Shuyu had a feeling what he really wanted to say was, “I’ve been waiting for you for quite a while now.”

At this very moment, she truly regretted letting the boss find out where she lived. Him waiting for her in front of the building couldn’t be a good thing. She became alert all of a sudden, took a couple of steps back, and prepared to dash readily as she said to him, “Is that so. Then I will let you be. See you….”

Before she was even done talking, Zhou Qinhe had already seen through her. He took a couple of steps forward and gently wrapped his hand around her wrist. “No worries, you are the one that I am waiting for.”

He was so quick that Yan Shuyu paused for a second. She recollected herself quickly. Did the boss just take her hand into his? Was she doomed to marry him and become the male lead’s stepmom? That was too scary of a thought. Yan Shuyu panicked and subconsciously jerked her hand back. It so happened that Zhou Qinhe wasn’t really holding onto her with any sort of force, so she was able to shake her hand free easily.

Oh shoot. Now she had offended the boss once again. Yan Shuyu’s heart was beating out of her chest when she saw Zhou Qinhe slowly take his hand back, gave her a sideward glance, and asked, “Such a strong reaction, huh?”

Yan Shuyu, “……”

She suspected there was subtext to what he was saying, but he couldn’t prove it.

Thinking about everything that she had done to the boss the night that she had transmigrated over, Yan Shuyu had a bit of a guilty conscience. But, she forced herself to come up with an explanation, “Pardon me, Boss Zhou. I am just not used to it. It’s nothing personal.”

“Not used to…” said Zhou Qinhe slowly, “Me touching you?”

Yan Shuyu, “……”

Now she was plenty sure that the boss’s word had a lot of subtext and that she could prove it.

He couldn’t have just said what he wanted to without making it sound so suggestive. There was not much Yan Shuyu could do about that, naturally. Yet, with her four years of dating experience, his words didn’t exactly make her blush. Which made it easier for her to play dumb. She widened her eyes and gave the boss a I-have-heard-nothing look.

The two of them looked at each other, and neither one of them talked. Right when Yan Shuyu thought she had gotten away with it, the boss started again. He looked squarely into her eyes. Even though his look wasn’t piercing, it didn’t offer her an opportunity to dodge it either. Accentuating one word at a time, he asked, “If that is the case, then why did you do what you did?”

Now Yan Shuyu definitely had a bad feeling, “Did… did what?”

Zhou Qinhe lowered his head all of a sudden. His warm breath reached her neck from her ear as he said, “Crawled into my bed when I was drunk…. Should I go on?”

Yan Shuyu shuddered.
