Yan Shuyu, too, quickly changed out of her shoes and followed them into the bathroom. The three of them took up all the free space in the bathroom, and she quickly said, "Boss Zhou, can you go wait in the bedroom? Yuanbao, go get your own clothes. Mom will draw your bath water for you."
Both the adult and child acknowledged her request. One again, Zhang Yuanjia picked up Uncle Zhou's hand and gleefully led him toward the bedroom.
There's a washing machine inside the apartment, and Yan Shuyu did their laundry quite frequently. Both her and her son change out of their sleepwear every two to three days. Zhang Yuanjia was able to pull out his sleepwear from the closet without any difficulties. He gestured Uncle Zhou to have a seat and pitter-pattered back into the bathroom.
Hearing his return, Yan Shuyu turned and asked curiously, "Did you just change into a clean set of pajamas yesterday? You want to change into a clean set again today?"
The little kiddo lifted his head at her and said, "I like this set better."
Yan Shuyu didn't care too much about that. She just nodded, carried him in, and peeled all his clothes off.
Zhang Yuanjia was quite an independent child, but he was still young and had limited strength and the winter clothes were thick and heavy. If she let him take them all off on his own, by the time he was done, the water she had drawn would probably already be cold. Yan Shuyu placed the naked child inside the bathtub and told him to bathe himself instead of just goofing around before she walked out of the bathroom. She has a guest to tend to.
When she returned to the bedroom, she saw her guest casually sitting at the edge of the bed flipping through a fairy tale story book. The corners of Yan Shuyu's mouth twitched.
Meeting the boss's very open look, she dared not ask nor say anything. After all, the only chair in the house has two jackets on it that she has yet to put away. The bed was probably the only place he could sit on. Not knowing what else she could say, she asked, "I only have beverages and water at home, what would you like?"
"Water will be fine. Thank you." The boss gave her a leisurely look before he looked back down and continued to flip through the book, as though checking out what Zhang Yuanjia usually enjoyed reading was truly the purpose of his visit.
Yan Shuyu docilely went to get him his glass of water and also poured herself a glass of juice at the same time to calm her poor heart.
Just like how she didn't have extra slippers at home, she didn't have extra cups either. The smart Yan Shuyu decided to wash out her son's cup and poured the boss a glass of water. After all, her son seemed to be so fond of Uncle Zhou and vice versa. Neither one of them would mind that, right?
She was such a genius~
Zhou Qinhe, as expected, did not decline it. He merely looked at the little frog cup and looked like he had a lot to say, but didn't know where to start. Then, catching sight of the pink Hello Kitty cup on the table, he let it go immediately and quickly took a sip of the water.
Yan Shuyu nodded in contentment and pulled off a banana from the bundle that she bought a couple days ago, shoved it into the boss's hand, and felt that she had been a great host. She smiled and said to him, "Go on, have one. We have more. I am going to go check on Yuanbao."
Zhou Qinhe, with a cup of water in his right hand and a banana in his left, "......"
