Chapter 279 – “Okay, I will owe you for now.” (2)
Yan Shuyu wasn’t sure if she should be surprised that the little male lead’s interest in the puppy was nowhere near that of her son’s. He didn’t react too much to it. In fact, he even looked up and exchanged a look with his dad. Except that, Yan Shuyu, whose attention was focused on the puppy much like her son, fail to notice it. She asked her son excitedly, “Really? How big is Tongtong’s dog? What breed is it?”
With someone sharing his excitement, Zhang Yuanjia shared happily, “It’s a Samoyed. It’s three months old and Tongtong said it was pretty and white like a cloud.”
“Samoyeds are beautiful!” Yan Shuyu said with a longing look, “I’ll go with you to play with the puppy!”
The puppy was all the mother and son duo, who had never had pets before, could think about. They had even lost interest in the Lego. They got more and more excited as they chatted and only wished they could go downstairs immediately to see the dog.
Zhou Qinhe was the one who finally stopped them. “This is dinner hours and they might be eating. Why don’t you go later?”
Yan Shuyu had always listened to the boss. She immediately said, “Okay, let’s go after dinner then?”

Boss Zhou shook his head helplessly. “What if they are still eating?”
The boss made a good point there. They have no idea what time the Yang’s have dinner and when they would be done. Regardless of whether they have already had dinner, it would still be rude to go over when the host is having dinner. That still wasn’t an issue for Yan Shuyu though. With her relationship with Manager Yang, all she needed to do was to message him on WeChat and find out whether now was a good time to go over.
Yan Shuyu was just about to go get her cellphone from the living room when the boss made the final decision. “Why don’t we go together after piano practice? That way it will be bed time by the time we get back.”
Yan Shuyu would rather go immediately after dinner. She wanted to see the dog sooner rather than later. But both Zhang Yuanjia and Zhou Yi had agreed, she didn’t want to come across as even more impatient than the little kiddos. As such, she had given up on her idea of contacting her little buddy and returned to the Lego.
After dinner was piano practice time as mentioned by the boss. Zhang Yuanjia was slowly going onto the right track on his path. He was a lucky one, having so many good teachers at his young age. He must be truly talented to be picked by Liu Cui and the others. But, hard work was still very necessary even when one was talented.
Liu Cui has had a conversation with Yan Shuyu on Zhang Yuanjia’s education when she first started working there to give her an idea about it. Her son had just started out and was still young so he must start from the basics. But if he truly wanted to have accomplishment in this field, he would need to practice for at least 8 – 9 hours a day.
Yan Shuyu was shocked when she heard that, even a little regretful. She felt that it was too much to ask for her son to spend every single free minute in practicing. Perhaps picking this path for him was a mistake?
The mother might have wanted to back paddle but the son was more determined than ever. She had no idea what kind of chicken soup for the soul had Instructor Liu been giving them but the little kiddo never complained about it being difficult. He’d practice for 3 – 5 hours at the musical institution then another 1.5 hours at home.
Under his influence, Zhou Yi, too, would practice voluntarily every night. He never said it out loud but, truth was, he didn’t want to fall behind his little buddy.
This being Yan Shuyu’s new career path and with the two kids at home, each of them practicing harder than the other, naturally she had become their de facto instructor at home. =.=
Yan Shuyu, who was dying to go visit the puppy finally made it till when the little boys finished with their practices. It was already 8 PM and she couldn’t wait to hold their hands and headed out. The boss, who had been working in the living room had also put down his laptop and followed behind them quietly. The four of them shameless went to knock on Manager Yang’s door.
Manager Yang and little Tongtong were very friendly and, not only did they let them see the puppy, they even let them pet and hold it. They played with the dog for a good half an hour By the time they went home, Yan Shuyu was still speechless from the cuteness of the dog and all she could think about was how soft and fluffy it was. She didn’t even notice that the boss had already sent the boys to bathe and to bed.
When she recollected herself, she saw the boss standing in front of her, looking at her helplessly. “If you like dogs so much, I can bring my dog over from my old place.”
“What kind of a dog?” Yan Shuyu blurted out, “You have a dog behind my back?”
Zhou Qinhe, “……”
