With official wedding banquet like this, the entrée might not be too overly delicate but the all-you-can-eat wine and beverages, cupcakes and fruits all looked very tempting. Yan Shuyu had noticed them a while ago and couldn't wait to start as soon as her burdens were gone.
Yan Shuyu had, after all, attended many banquets with the boss. She wouldn't say that she had meant many compatible friends but there were certain a few at the venue that she was familiar with. She may not know them very well but she could for sure chitchat with them. Eating and chatting, it was bustling around Yan Shuyu and she had inadvertently forgot all about the boss and the little kiddos.
By the time she realized that they had been gone for quite a white, the little black and white little kiddos had already come looking for her. Yan Shuyu turned around but didn't see the boss anywhere near them. She was even more puzzled. "Xiao Yi, where is your dad?"
For the first time ever, Zhou Yi did not respond. He gave Zhang Yuanjia a look and Zhang Yuanjia had an even more peculiar look on him. He walked up and tugged at her sleeve. And, just like that, the baffled Yan Shuyu was dragged by the little kiddos toward an area with very few people. She thought they had something they wanted to tell her in private but, as soon as they were about to walk through an arched door, she heard a light sobbing sound. Yan Shuyu stopped in her tracks and felt excited all of a sudden. Oooh, she could sense a melon coming her way!
The little kiddos, as if on cue, had also stopped at the same time as her. They were all standing there except that both Zhang Yuanjia and Zhou Yi looked up at her and their looks were full of concern.
Looking at the two of them, Yan Shuyu suddenly had a bad feeling. She wanted to eat melon, but not her own melon. That wouldn't be a good thing at all......
Yan Shuyu started worrying whether the boss was being lovey-dovey with someone else behind her back. That being said, she was not one to remain silent. She must find out for herself once the suspicion had started. As such, she waved for the little boys to back up as she hid behind the wall, getting ready to peep.
Zhang Yuanjia and Zhou Yi were not very docile this time. They were both children matured beyond their age. The fact that they had brought her here without saying a word meant that they had an idea about what was going on. The boys refused to leave and, furthermore, mimicked how she had hide behind the wall and also start peeping.
Yan Shuyu didn't feel that it was a good thing for the boys to do but now was not the time. Her focus right now wasn't the boys learning something bad from her. As such, after a little bit of hesitation, she remained steadfastly staying there to peek.
The situation was, indeed, peculiar on the other side of the wall. It was a man and a woman standing there facing each other. The man had his back to them and all they could see was his elegant and handsome back. They couldn't see the face of the woman either. All they could see was her beautiful, cascading long hair and her very delicate shoulder. If one looked closely enough, one could even see that her shoulder was trembling slight. Any other man would have felt pitiful toward her already.
All in all, the two just stood there facing each other quietly. Just from their silhouette alone, they gave the match made in heaven feel.
Yan Shuyu wasn't blind. She could tell that the man was the boss right away. She was the one who picked up his outfit today. Of course she would recognize it. She did not immediately dash out there to confront him because from just what she could see of the woman's dress, Yan Shuyu already knew that she was the beauty that she had seen in front of the school the other day.
Looking at the little male lead by her feet who was still very delicate even with a long face and, combining that with the way that the woman was staring at him the other day, Yan Shuyu suddenly had a very bold speculation. Could the beauty be the little male lead's birth mother aka the boss's legendary ex-wife?
