Chapter 207 – Hot pot with kids (3)

With her providing such specific time the two kiddos accepted her explanation and stopped asking to chat with the boss. Another 30 minutes or so later, all of the little male lead’s attention was attracted by the hot pot in front of him radiating a thick, milky smell.

The hot pot shop was still the same one as before but they had rolled out new flavors as of late. Seeing that Yan Shuyu had two kids with her, the familiar server recommended a cheese hot pot (aka fondue). Allegedly, it was very popular among kids, and all of them loved it after they had tried it.

Cheese was strength. Yan Shuyu had always enjoyed all sorts of cheese but has yet to try cheese hotpot. Being curious about it and after receiving the blessing from the kids, she ordered the cheese set. When the server brought it, she realized that it was a Korean style hotpot. The pot was filled with meat, vegetables, and ramen, with a lot of cheese sprinkled on top of the ramen. As the pot started to heat up, the cheese started to melt bit by bit, and the cheesy smell started to radiate out. The very unenlightened adult and two children were mesmerized immediately and all three of them sat up straight as they waited for the hotpot to come to a boil.

Finally, the hotpot started to bubble and the cheese had melted into the broth. As the cheesy smell got stronger and stronger, the color of the broth also started to change. It started to turn a slight yellowish color, and the smell became even more tempting. Yan Shuyu picked up the tools and announced, “Okay, ready to eat!”

As soon as she finished saying that, she started fishing out the now-ready meat balls of every sort and divided them out. First, she’d give one to the youngest Zhou Yi, then Zhang Yuanjia, and finally, herself. Even though both her son and the little male lead were pretty independent children, Yan Shuyu didn’t dare to let them be too independent when it came to hotpot. It would be no joke if they had accidentally burned themselves.

It wasn’t easy to be a mother. Zhang Yuanjia was already being a good host to his little buddy, and the two of them were already covered in grease. Yan Shuyu even added her favorite beef, fatty lamb, and shrimp before she started to enjoy the delicacies happily.

Less than two minutes later, her cellphone rang. She picked it up and saw that it was a video chat request from the boss. By now, both Zhang Yuanbao and the little male lead were so absorbed in indulging in their food that they no longer cared about the call. Yan Shuyu felt blue for a few seconds before she finally resigned to accepting the video chat request.

Yan Shuyu, who had picked up the call extremely reluctantly, stared straight at the screen as soon as the boss appeared in the video. She even voluntarily looked for her blue tooth ear piece as she greeted him – she could have hotpot any day, but it wasn’t everyday when she could see a handsome man coming out of the shower.

From the other end of the video, Zhou Qinhe had just finished showering and his bathrobe was tied loosely around his waist, making his flat and pale chest very visible. His hair was only patted lightly and water was still dripping from it. Pea-sized water droplets ran down the side of his cheeks, down his neck, down his chest, and disappeared into the robe.

If Yan Shuyu had to describe how he looked right now, she said “delectable”. He had always been the restrained kind of man who’d dress himself up properly and buttoned up even the very top button on his shirt. Him suddenly appearing like this without warning made Yan Shuyu give up her favorite hotpot. That ought to demonstrate the impact he had on her.

Zhou Qinhe didn’t seem to realize how seductive he was, or that he didn’t mind her staring at him. He watched the woman on the other end staring at him for a few seconds then frantically looking for her earpiece and grinning happily.

He chuckled heartily and asked, “Yanyan, what are you doing right now?”
