Chapter 86 – Even A Broken Clock Is Right Two Times A Day (1)
Even though Yan Shuyu had undergone a lot of struggle when she declined the boss’s offer, her biggest strength was that she didn’t let anything bother her for too long. As she watched the boss leave in his car, her struggle also dissipated, and she returned home happily.
When she dropped her son off at home, Yan Shuyu would wait until he finished bathing before she took off. This way, he could go to bed whenever he wanted and not have to wait for her to come home.
Yet little kiddo Zhang Yuanbao was a warm-hearted person even at this young age; even when he was bored and sleepy at home by himself, he’d still insisted on waiting until Yan Shuyu come home.
As soon as he heard the door being opened, he’d pitter pattered to the door in his bunny pajama and offered up his warmest smile immediately. “Mommy, you are home~”
“Yes.” Yan Shuyu would rubbed the little kiddo’s well-combed hair until it was a mess and thought to herself that for how much she was sacrificing for him, he’d better be nice to her after he was grown up. Otherwise, she’d break his legs!
The main reason that she had been avoiding the Zhou’s father and son like they were plagues was, quite honestly, for her instant son. In the novel, the stepmom merely ended up in jail, nothing life-threatening. And, now that she possessed the knowledge of the plotline, she could at least try to save herself.
Yet the instant son’s ending was much worse. Not only did he die in the middle of the street, he didn’t even have an intact body when he died. Yan Shuyu didn’t even know where to start in order to save him. Her only option was to go with the dumbest method of all – stay away from the male lead and his father as far away as possible.
All in all, Yan Shuyu felt that she was a perfect, wonderful mother. If the little kiddo was not nice to her after he had grown up, she’d definitely have to hurt him.Naturally, little kiddo Zhang Yuanbao had no idea what was going through his mother’s mind. He just assumed she was playing with him.
He threw himself into her arms and displayed his affection some more before he lifted up his face, looked at her with his big and shiny eyes, and said, “Mom, Tongtong’s teacher will be here to see us tomorrow, right?”
Tongtong was the name of Manager Yang’s niece and Tongtong’s teacher would be the legendary Instructor Lin.
Yan Shuyu had been looking forward to this day for a while now, but looking at the little face that was full of eagerness, she decided to mess around with him and said, “Maybe. Could be the day after tomorrow too.”
Zhang Yuanbao was not your average kid. Hearing his mother’s words, not only did he not express any impatience, he gave a content smile and said, “Day after tomorrow will be fine too.”
Yan Shuyu loved to see this happy-go-lucky side of him. It clearly showed that her education of him was still quite successful. She decided to stop teasing him. She pinched his soft and chubby cheek and said, “Then you must go to bed early and come wait with me at the shop for Tongtong’s teacher tomorrow.”
The little kiddo nodded softly and said, “Mom should go to bed early too.”
“Then you’ve got to let go of me first. I need to remove my makeup and bathe before I can go to bed.”
Hearing his mom’s request, Zhang Yuanjia rubbed his little face on her first before he reluctantly let her go.
If there was any “negative effects” of Yan Shuyu’s transmigration to speak of, it would that the little kiddo was becoming more and more clingy and more and more affectionate toward her. From the original owner’s memory, the little kid had always acted very maturely and was somewhat of a sensitive child, probably has something to do with the original owner’s personality.
Like mother like son. Now that the content of the stepmom had swapped to the happy-go-lucky Yan Shuyu, the villain son had also been acting more and more like a child of his age.
But that’s no problem. Her son has always been a nice and obedient child, so Yan Shuyu had no problem with his changes. She patted the kiddo on his head, put her purse down, and went into the bathroom.
