Chapter 48 – The Innocent and Unpretentious Stepmom (3)

She was, however, finally able to convinced her little buddies to give up on that dangerous line of thought and take her words for it. The method was simple: she dropped out of senior high school, so her highest level of education was junior high school. Never mind that she wasn’t very cultured, she also wasn’t very capable. She had no car, no house, no savings. She got married early and now, even though her husband was gone, she couldn’t hide the fact that she had been married once.

She has a son to raise. She didn’t have a lot going for her with the exception of her looks. The boss is a true billionaire, not a youngster who had never seen a pretty girl before. He had plenty of options. Truth be told, the chance of him being interested in someone more naïve and innocent at the shop was much higher him being interested in her.

— Yan Shuyu, who had an over inflating self-esteem, had voluntarily admitted her shortcomings and even self-deprecated. It was quite obvious how much she did not want to be associated with the boss.

Luckily, after everything she had said, she had successfully convinced her buddies that there were truly nothing between the two of them.

Finally, Sherry, the first person who broached the subject, asked in a high-spirited way, “Yanyan, if there are no chemistry between the two of you, can I bring their orders to them when they are ready? I am somewhat interested in this boss now.”

What? Someone wanted so badly to be the villain stepmother? Yan Shuyu was stunned, but immediately has it figured out. With the male lead’s father’s qualifications, many women would happily fly toward him like bugs into a fire. After all, not everyone valued their lives as much as she did. Sherry’s line of thought made perfect sense. Before she had joined, Sherry was the prettiest girl in the shop; many of the elites from the offices around them became regulars because of her. She was a well sought-after pretty girl as well.

All in all, this girl was bold and courageous, Yan Shuyu couldn’t have agreed any faster, “Yes! Yes! Please take over that table for me. I wish you luck, Sherry!”

Well, if Yan Shuyu didn’t care, the rest were more than happy to watch the drama as it unfolded. Everybody cheered on for Sherry as she left with the tray of food and her triple-E bust.

Happily, Yan Shuyu slacked in the break room.

Alas, her happiness was short lived. Sherry returned in 2 minutes and with a dispirited look, she said, “Yanyan, Mr. Zhou asked for you.”

The other buddies, who were also slacking, beamed all over again as they turned and looked at Yan Shuyu. She said there was nothing between them, then what would you call this?

Yan Shuyu was the most shocked of them all: she sure hope the boss wasn’t really interested in her!

Yan Shuyu wasn’t playing dumb. She was truly baffled. Whether it was the story, or the original owner’s memory, “she” was only able to marry the male lead’s father and become the male lead’s stepmom because the original owner tried everything within her power to pursue the male lead’s father. And, looking at the boss’s qualifications, he could pick just about anyone to be his wife. He didn’t need to make any effort at all.

And now, the storyline had been entirely muddled up. All the hard work by the original owner and everything that she had planned was terminated abruptly because of her arrival. It was just an accident that they had a one-night stand. The boss knew nothing about the original owner, why the sudden interest in her?

Was it because she ran away after she had bedded him and her being so innocent and unpretentious somehow piqued his interest?

Yan Shuyu felt that her future was grim, and she just wanted to cry.
