Chapter 107 - 107 107 Just Short of Calling Her Boss Lady

?Chapter 107: Chapter 107: Just Short of Calling Her Boss Lady Chapter 107: Chapter 107: Just Short of Calling Her Boss Lady Zhu Qianying thought that Yanhuang would contact her the next day to fulfill his promise of “If you like, I can try”.

However, after he dropped her off at the hotel that day, Yanhuang hadn’t contacted her for two or three days.

Aside from thinking this is quite unusual, more than anything else, she felt relieved.

There’s no denying that Yanhuang’s mind changes about her these recent days had made it increasingly difficult for her to get a read on him and had left her feeling inexplicably restless.

This sense of restlessness could be attributed to the hormones running wild inside her, or to put it bluntly, it was simply an instinctual reaction towards the opposite sex.

But Zhu Qianying didn’t like this instinctual reaction!

Or perhaps it can be said, she didn’t like anyone who made her lose control, who exceeded the scope of her control!

Too many elements of instability filled her life for the first twenty years, and factors of stability were too few and far between.

She hadn’t been able to fight for many things in her life. Therefore, she was reluctant to add another unstable factor into her already precarious life. Thus, she was extremely averse to Yanhuang at the moment.

At the same time, even more stubbornly, she wanted to protect the few things that truly belonged to her.

Like her mother!

Ever since her mother spent the day at the hospital with her father, she came back glowing. Although she didn’t dare to flaunt it to Zhu Qianying, Zhu Qianying could imagine that her silly mother must have been made dizzy by her father’s empty promises and lost all common sense.

However, ever since her mother encountered her pathetic father, reason had basically left her. This time, Zhu Qianying was waiting for her mother to take another big fall with her father, so that she could finally let go of this issue.

For that reason, on the second and third days, her mother left early to visit her father at the hospital. Zhu Qianying watched coldly, neither hindering nor accompanying her.

Perhaps her mother felt somewhat guilty, and there was a sense of indebtedness to her daughter, she returned from the hospital these past few days with a bunch of delicious food she made herself.

They were probably made in the kitchen of the nearby Mingxuan Hotel.

Zhu Qianying was indifferent to her mother’s blatant attempts to curry favor. After all, whatever her mother brought back she’d eat without demurring or showing courtesy. But she wasn’t very fond of talking to her mother, just silently watching her mother go off to provide free care every day.

On the third day, her mother came back at two in the afternoon, not only bringing a big pot of soup but also several boxes of Chinese-style snacks.

Zhu Qianying, who hadn’t had lunch, gulped down two bowls of soup and ate some pastries, then gave a satisfied belch and leaned back against the chair.

After her mind went blank for several seconds, her gaze fell on the soup and the remaining pastries on the coffee table, and she suddenly thought of the afternoon tea snacks she bought for that annoying boss Yanhuang a few days ago.

Zhu Qianying pouted, patted her satisfied belly, and stood up. It was only when her reason returned that she realized she had already taken her backpack and the remaining soup and pastries and headed out the door.

Indeed, a full stomach makes one prone to foolishness.

Zhu Qianying was speechless at her body’s impulsive actions. She wanted to turn around and walk back, but then remembered the scene of Yanhuang snapping at Zhu Haokang and Zhu Zhizhou at the hospital that day. Thinking about it, it felt quite satisfying.

Forget it, forget it. After all, these things are cooked by my mother. I’ll consider it running an errand, I’ll give these to him as a thank you gift from my mother.

Zhu Qianying walked into Yanhuang Group holding the desserts and soup. The receptionists were familiar with Miss Zhu who had visited several times. Plus, she left with Yanhuang the other day. The receptionists, especially the two or three who had witnessed Yanhuang’s declaration and still couldn’t let go, now seeing Zhu Qianying coming to find Yanhuang every two or three days, it was hard for them not to feel jealous.

“Miss Zhu, Yanhuang left for lunch and hasn’t come back yet.”

Even though they had given up hope, seeing Zhu Qianying miss the mark, the receptionist was secretly delighted. She voluntarily reported Yanhuang’s whereabouts while cautiously observing Zhu Qianying’s reaction.

The psychology of most women is often so subtle that even though they know they can’t get what they want, they still take pleasure in seeing others fail.

“Alright, thank you!”

Zhu Qianying, on the other hand, didn’t care whether Yanhuang was there or not. She was merely here to deliver his afternoon tea. As long as it was delivered, her intention had been fulfilled. As for when he would eat it, or whether he got to it at all, that was his business and didn’t concern her.

As for not being able to see him, she did not regret it one bit.

She’s not sick, why would she voluntarily walk into pain?

She was even secretly grateful that she didn’t have to see that annoying Boss Yanhuang!

She walked out of the elevator holding the snacks and soup, surprised to see Qin Xiu standing there.

“Mr. Qin, you’re here?” In her mind, this super capable assistant should be inseparable from Yanhuang.

Qin Xiu smiled and took the bag from her hands, “Yes, I’m holding down the fort here while the boss is dealing with some things at Tong village.”

He naturally got the notification from the reception desk and came over purposely to meet her.

Zhu Qianying halted in the corridor and pointed to the bag of food and drinks he was holding, “You can take those things in, I’m not going in.”

Qin Xiu was puzzled, “Aren’t you here to see the boss?”

Zhu Qianying wanted to shake her head, but ended up nodding, “Yes, but since he’s not here, I won’t wait for him. I have other things to do.”

Hearing this, Qin Xiu looked disappointed. He thought for a while but was unwilling to just let Zhu Qianying go. After all, he couldn’t bear the blame.

“How about, I call Yanhuang to see if he’s back? Or, maybe he’s at the door?”

Qin Xiu, the super capable assistant, wasn’t given his title for nothing. If we say that he was just looking down on her and didn’t think much about her during the selection process, now, he was filled with admiration and gratitude for her.

Yanhuang had been exceptionally busy these past few days, even he, Qin Xiu, was working like a dog.

If it were the past, Yanhuang would occasionally toy with him, his personal assistant, to relieve some pressure under such a high-pressure working environment.

However, these past few days, although Yanhuang was busy enough that he barely had time to eat, his mood had been surprisingly good. Despite encountering a lot of unexpected situations, he hadn’t blamed Qin Xiu once.

All these credits, Qin Xiu gave to Zhu Qianying.

For example, the afternoon tea snacks that Zhu Qianying personally bought a few days ago, if it was him, Qin Xiu, who bought them, he estimated he would have been cursed out and forced to eat up all the food using his nose.
