Chapter 264- Shu Yan finally figured out that she was putting in good words for Feng Zeyu. (1)
Shu Yan was still thinking about their conversation in the afternoon when she arrived home. She had subtly told Feng Zeyu that pursuing her would be a particularly difficult path and the road ahead of them would be rough. He had, however, gave her a definitive answer with no hesitation. That had alleviated a lot of Shu Yan’s internal struggle.
“Boss, someone called you today. He said he is your third brother.”
Shu Yan had told the Aunty a few times that she could just refer to her as Shu Yan or Xiao Yan, but Aunty still chose to refer to her as Boss. Shu Yan had decided to try to change her after a while.
“Oh, okay. I will give him a call back.” With all the fiascos surround Yingying as of late, Shu Yan had almost completely forgotten about what was going on with her own family.
She had no idea why Shu Jianyang called her up. Did something happen with Shu Youfu?”
“Hi, Third Brother? It’s me.”
“Oh, I didn’t call you for anything specific. I just wanted to let you know that Second Uncle has gotten much better and that I have given them the money,” said Shu Jianyang simply.
“Oh, alright. Thank you for all your trouble, Third Brother,” said Shu Yan, feeling a little embarra.s.sed.
“Don’t say that. You are my sister; of course I should help you. Besides, it was no big deal anyway. You are a single woman with two children, just take good care of yourself. I will keep an eye on your family over here.” Speaking of, he has Shu Yan to thank. It was because of her that he now has houses and car, and a career. Not only was he making a lot of money, he was always proud when he returned to their home town and that even brought up the status of his parents.
Shu Yan hesitated a little bit and asked, “Did they say anything when you gave them the money? They didn’t come and bother you, did they?”
Shu Jianyang could still laugh out loud when he recalled the look on his Second Aunty and his fellow cousins. It was quite a show.
They fussed over the original 2,000 yuan for a long time and finally paid him back on day three. It seemed they had paid another 2,000 yuan afterward. When he went to visit them today, he gave the 1,000 yuan to Second Aunty and told them it was from Shu Yan. Even Second Uncle almost sat up and kept asking where Shu Yan was.
Shu Jianyang had only one answer: He doesn’t know.
Did he think they were stupid? He may not know before today. How could he still not know now?
Shu Jianyang only had that one answer. He didn’t know anything. He had no idea where Shu Yan went, nor did he have her phone number. Shu Yan was the one who reached out to him every time and the timing was very good this time.
Shu Youfu and Lin Zixing could do nothing about Shu Jianyang’s att.i.tude.
After hearing Shu Jianyang’s recount of what had happened, Shu Yan couldn"t help but started laughing. It would take someone like Shu Jianyang to handle someone like her parents.
She wondered what would happen had Feng Zeyu been there. Shu Yan shook her head immediately. What was she thinking?!
Hanging up the phone, Shu Yan began putting her clothes away and told Aunty that she was going to merchandizing tonight.
“I used to think that having your own boutique is the easiest of all work. Now I know that nothing is as easy as it seems.” Aunty made some snacks for Shu Yan’s trip tonight.
“It’s difficult to tell when you are in a difficult field. It always looks easy when looking in from the outside.” Shu Yan smiled. Only one who had experienced it would understand the pain involved.
Shu Yan waited at the entrance of the little district and noticed a car that looked familiar to her. She only took one look at it and didn’t pay it too much attention. There were many cars in this little district; it was only normal that she would find some of them more familiar than others. Except she saw Feng Zeyu poking his head out from inside the car.
“Let’s go.”
“You are driving?” She looked at the license plate. This was the same one that she and Yingying had rode in the other day.
“The chauffeur is busy today so I will be driving. Don’t worry. I have been driving for over ten years. You don’t need to worry about a thing,” said Feng Zeyu with a smile.
Was his driving skill in question? She thought they were talking about why the chauffeur wasn’t here.
After Shu Yan had gotten into the car and buckled up, she was still suspecting that Feng Zeyu was the one who chased the chauffeur away.
