Chapter 334   – “Oh, that will not be necessary lah.” (4)

Albeit unexpected, but the outcome of their heart-to-heart was very positive. Yan Shuyu, who had reached a consensus with Ye Rongchen couldn’t help but stood up and stretched. She thought her herself that the problem of the century that had been plaquing her this entire time could not be considered as resolved, right?

As soon as she had stood up, a light knocking came from the outside and little kiddo Zhang Yuanbao asked cheerfully from the outside. “Mommy, are you two done talking? Dinner is getting cold.”

Yan Shuyu looked at the time. It was 6:15 PM, just 10 minutes later than their usual dinner time. How could dinner already be cold. She asked as she walked toward the door. “Where’s your Uncle Zhou?”

“Uncle Zhou had been watching cartoons with us.”

Yan Shuyu got it now. The boss, who would work instead of sleep, was watching cartoons with the kids? That was obviously not why he did that. She opened up the door, smiled, and asked. “Uncle Zhou had you come and get us?”

Zhang Yuanjia threw himself into her arms passionately and said in a low voice. “Uncle Zhou kept looking at his watch. He didn’t want Mommy to get too hungry.”

Yan Shuyu almost busted out laughing. The boss was getting cuter and cuter when he got jealous~

Neither Yan Shuyu nor Ye Rongchen said it out loud, but it was understood that the content of this conversation was a secret for just the two of them.

Perhaps when she was really, really old, and was about to die and if she was still with the boss and they were still as happily together as they were right now, she would choose to share this secret with him. She didn’t plan on sharing that with him for the time being.

As such, after dinner, after sending the guest away, and after the kids were settled in, Yan Shuyu only discussed with the boss matters about accompanying little kiddo Zhang Yuanbao to Beijing to be officially accepted into the Ye family.

Ye Rongchen only mentioned bringing the little kiddo with him and did not mention Yan Shuyu. Yan Shuyu trusted that Ye Rongchen has his son’s best interest in mind and would take good care of him. But she was his real mother and wanted to make sure that he would not be treated unfairly at any given point.

The best way to ensure that was to accompany him. After all, the little kiddo had never been away from her ever.

Zhou Qinhe gave her a disapproving look. “Is that necessary? Yuanbao will be my child after we get married. He can adopt my last name and I will redo the will. He will be treated the same as Xiao Yi.”

Being so direct had never been the boss’s usual style. His words could not be clearer and left no room for misinterpretation.

Yan Shuyu, too, was very touched after she heard that.

Inferiority complex, in addition to jealousy, might also be part of the reasons why the villainous stepbrother always wanted to compete with the male lead over just about everything. His voluntarily wanted his last name changed to Zhou suggested that he was well aware that his status was different than that of the male lead after his mother married into the Zhou’s. Neither did the boss in the novel treated the two children equally. Had he done what he was about to do now and set up the will that they would be equals before the wedding, perhaps the villainous stepbrother would be so touched that he decided to return the favor with the male lead and be good brothers with him.

That being said, the differences between reality and the original novel also gave Yan Shuyu more confidence about the future. With the boss’s words, she was even more certain that she and her son would have a happy ending.

Just to be safe, however, she declined the boss’s offer and smiled and said to him matter-of-factly, “He is one of the Ye’s. That is what is rightfully his.”

Zhou Qinhe paused a little and experienced a minorly perturbed feeling.

As the sole heir of the Zhou family, his clan was not something that he took lightly. He wasn’t even sure if he would regret that decision but he was willing to risk all that for her. Nevertheless, she had turned him down oh-so-casually. That made him felt that his punch had landed in a bag of cotton. That made him feel perturbed. Her accepting Ye Rongchen’s suggestion meant that he would remain in their lives for good.
