Chapter 46 – The Innocent and Unpretentious Stepmom (1)

Facing all her over-the-top enthusiastic colleagues, Yan Shuyu sighed. She should understand where they came from though. The boss was so handsome, his smile was friendly but his aura was standoffish, not to mention he had the charm of a wealthy man that just exuded from him. Never mind that all the girls at the restaurant fell for him right away, even the men were starting to have ideas.

Well, understanding where they came from was one thing; Yan Shuyu, however, was not able to satisfy their desire to gossip. “You guys think too much. He was just my boss from my previous work, and I have only met him a couple times while I worked there. I guess Boss just happened to know that my last name is Yan. It was just a coincidence that he’s here. I don’t know anything personal about him.”

“Yanyan used to work at Hotel Basset, right?”

Her little buddies exclaimed all over again, “The Hotel Basset that has branches all over the world and known to be every expensive? So that one out there isn’t just a TRH (Tall, Rich, and Handsome), he’s straight up filthily rich!”

“You are right. He’s certainly from money.” Yan Shuyu didn’t mind that their attention was now focused on the boss himself. She even went on and added, “Hotel Bassett is just a portion of his business. It’s not even that well-known among all the other businesses. The Zhou’s Corporation is more known for their market, real estate, finance, the internet, and news media…. If you read any finance magazines or read the news, then you’d have heard of the Zhou’s already. Boss Zhou has made the cover of finance magazines all the time.”

Yan Shuyu’s introduction stunned everyone. Naturally, everyone who worked at Sunshine House was just a normal peasant like her; most of them aren’t even locals. Many of them left their hometowns and came to this city to pursue their dreams. In their eyes, Manager Yang was already a rich man, having shops and houses in his assets and his family owns businesses. He was the definition of a TRH. As for Zhou Qinhe and that type of wealthy individuals, they have already exceeded the realm of human beings, they were more like celestial beings!

Even as mere melon-eaters, her little buddies all gasped and held their breath. They were stunned silent for a few seconds, and some of them even looked at Yan Shuyu with reverence and said, “Yan-jie, you know so much!!”

(T/N: melon-eaters – those who likes to watch the drama unfold as bystanders. Commonly accepted as a terminology in the Chinese language in 2016.)

“Yan-jie is a friend with a millionaire like that, that’s almost like I am a friend with a millionaire. OMG! I am the most accomplished person in my family!”

“No, no, I am not!” Yan Shuyu might be vain,, but she certainly did not want to be associated with the male lead’s father.

She quickly clarified, “I am just a supporting character in the eyes of the boss, really. Boss Zhou’s family has so many properties that many of the old employees had been there for years without ever meeting the big boss. I was just lucky that, for whatever unknown reasons, the big boss decided to stay at our hotel for a couple of months. You had no idea how crazy things were then, even the general manager made several rounds a day. In order to provide the boss with the best service, three of us at the customer service department were picked to be his designated housekeepers – myself and two other colleague of mine. And that was the only reason that the big boss knew of us.”
