Chapter 189 “Where do kids have money? Rich mom gives money! Boss Lu, do you want to join in?”
Shen Muyan furrowed her brows lightly. Despite her being right there, the little one didn’t see her. Apparently, all his attention was on his dad!
Shen Muyan refused to admit she had failed as a mother and just snatched the ice cream from him.
“Mom~!”
“When did you show up?”
Lu Xiyao finished sticking to Boss Lu and then opened her arms to stick to Shen Muyan. Actually, sticking to a rich mom was quite comfortable—her skin was delicate and smooth, and it slled nice.
“I’ve been here all along, but soone didn’t see !” Shen Muyan pretended to be angry.
“Mom, don’t be mad, I’ll buy ice cream for you~!”
Shen Muyan looked at the little one’s outstretched hand with wide eyes.
“What do you an?”
“I’m just a kid, kids don’t have money, rich mom gives money~!”
“……”
That actually made a lot of sense!
Lu Qin smiled and saw that Shen Muyan was about to flick the little one’s forehead. He quickly played peacemaker.
“I’ll take the little one to buy it. What flavor would you like?”
Shen Muyan put down her ‘weapon’ and said, “Vanilla and nuts.”
“Dad, I want lon and rose cherry~!”
Parents outside the kindergarten saw this scene and looked on enviously. A warm family of three like this might be the epito of happiness. Shen Muyan drove a Porsche and followed Lu Qin to his rented house.
Xiaomi was busy in the kitchen. When she saw Lu Qin and the others co back, she ca out to greet them.
“Boss, boss lady, Miss Yaoyao.”
The rich mom felt pleased hearing this. She thought Xiaomi, the employee, was very polite and had a lot of life in her. The boss lady liked such employees. Xiaomi finished greeting them and then went back to work seriously.
Slap!
Three red bills were slapped on the table.
“I’m not one to mooch off of others. Don’t say I’m always freeloading; I paid for it,” Shen Muyan said justifiably.
Lu Qin smiled.
“Alright, Yaoyao, help daddy put the money away.”
“Okay, daddy~!”
The little one carefully folded the three bills, put them in her pocket, and patted them. Lu Qin went into the kitchen to prepare dinner.
Shen Muyan watched the little one’s actions, her lips curling.
“Little money-lover.”
Lu Xiyao turned her big eyes and walked over to Shen Muyan. In a soft and cute voice, she said, “Mom, are you tired? Let give you a massage~?”
“Rarely you show filial piety, then go ahead,” Shen Muyan stretched her long legs as much as possible, settling into a comfortable position.
Lu Xiyao obediently climbed onto the sofa and started massaging with her chubby, tender hands.
Crack, crack.
The little one was very serious, using all her strength to press, as if nursing. It felt pretty good.
The rich mom closed her eyes and enjoyed it. Ten minutes later.
The little one finished and declared, “Hmm~!”
The rich mom stretched lazily and thought that having a daughter was really great.
“Mom~! I’m done~!”
The little one blinked her eyes.
“Mm, Yaoyao is really good, keep it up.”
“Mom~! I’m done~!”
The little one blinked again, showing an expectant look. Shen Muyan glanced at the little one and seed to understand sothing. She raised an eyebrow.
“What do you want?”
“Hehe~! Three ice creams~!”
“Nice try, just one.”
Lu Xiyao tilted her head and thought for a mont before nodding.
“Alright~! Mom, there are still two ice creams left from last ti, now I owe you three~!”
Shen Muyan was stunned, almost forgetting about the ice cream from before. She glanced at the little one. The ice cream thing, she rembered it very clearly. If she forgot, her daughter wouldn’t. Dinner was ready.
The main dish was spicy stir-fried pork intestines, and both Shen Muyan and Lu Xiyao’s appetites were imdiately awakened. They washed their hands and ate.
Xiaomi, the boss lady’s favorite employee, stayed to eat with them. It was fatty but not greasy, lean but not dry, with a strong and spicy flavor that lingered. Shen Muyan wasn’t really fond of offal, especially pork intestines, but this dish, made by Boss Lu, was really delicious.
There was no unpleasant taste of the intestines at all. After two big bowls of rice, Shen Muyan rubbed her bloated stomach, already feeling full. Lu Xiyao was the sa, completely stuffed.
After everyone finished eating, Xiaomi started cleaning up the dishes. Lu Qin went into the kitchen to prepare the late-night snack for the stall.
Shen Muyan played a puzzle ga with the little one for a while when suddenly Lu Qin’s phone vibrated on the coffee table.
Who was looking for Boss Lu at night?
The rich mom was curious, but it was impolite to sneak a look at soone else’s phone. She stared at the phone screen for a while but resisted touching it.
At this mont, the little one’s tablet ran out of power. She plugged it in and then took Lu Qin’s phone to continue watching cartoons. The phone vibrated again.
Lu Xiyao clicked it, and the WeChat chat interface popped up. Shen Muyan squinted her eyes. It was a woman. Her na was Chen Yue.
[Are you there? Boss Lu.]
[Boss Lu, where are you setting up your stall tonight? I’ll co to visit.]
The little one had no interest in the WeChat chat. She skillfully swiped it away and went back to watching cartoons.
“Yaoyao, give the phone.”
“Mom, I want to watch cartoons.”
“Use Mom’s phone to watch.”
“Okay~!”
The innocent little one directly exchanged phones with Shen Muyan.
Shen Muyan took Lu Qin’s phone, swiped around for a while, then stood up and walked towards the kitchen. She leaned against the sliding door, her stunning figure perfectly sculpted.
The rich mom calmly said to Lu Qin, who was busy in the kitchen, “The little one took your phone to watch cartoons. I noticed soone important was looking for you. Don’t you want to reply?”
Lu Qin turned his head, glanced at the rich mom, then leaned closer to look at the phone and said, “It’s not anyone important, just leave it.”
The rich mom had casually swiped through the ssages. This Chen Yue had been texting Lu Qin every few days. Sotis Boss Lu would reply politely, other tis he wouldn’t reply at all. But Chen Yue still persisted, clearly with a purpose.
Shen Muyan squinted her eyes.
“Boss Lu’s market seems pretty good?”
Noticing a hint of jealousy in her tone, Lu Qin smiled slightly.
“It’s alright.”
The rich woman glanced coldly at Lu Qin.
“You’re kneading dough with both hands, do you want to help you reply?”
Lu Qin looked at her with interest and said, “Sure.”
Lu Qin originally thought that Chen Yue would give up due to his cold attitude, but she surprisingly persisted. It seed like he needed to put an end to this once and for all.
Lu Qin didn’t mind letting the rich woman handle it for him.
“What should I reply?” The rich woman asked.
“Anything,” Lu Qin replied, turning back to continue kneading the dough.
The rich woman pursed her red lips. Since that’s the case, she decided to make a subtle move. Her long fingers pressed on the voice ssage button, and her lazy, pleasant yet slightly cold voice said, “He’s taking a shower.”
Just four simple words, and it was a knockout move. Sure enough, Chen Yue did not respond for several minutes. The rich woman smiled faintly, mission accomplished.
On the other end, Chen Yue was stunned after listening to the voice ssage. She quickly looked down, her expression dimming. It was completely hopeless now.
Over the past few days, she had been actively texting Lu Qin. But the boss had remained indifferent, clearly showing he had no interest in her. These days, Chen Yue had compared many n to Lu Qin and found that he was superior in every way. So, she had kept trying, not willing to give up. But now, she could finally give up for good.
With a woman’s sixth sense, Chen Yue could tell from the voice that the woman on the other side was beautiful, confident, and right by Lu Qin’s side. So, there was no hope for her. After all, forced relationships aren’t sweet.
Moreover, Lu Qin had never properly responded to her. Now, she could report back to her father, Chen Dahai, that it was over. But it was really a pity. She hadn’t been able to win over a man like Lu Qin. She might never et soone so perfect and excellent again.
Shen Muyan placed her phone on the coffee table, sat down, and watched a cartoon with the little one. Then, she stood up, grabbed a portion of crystal shrimp dumplings and Boss Oil Cake, and prepared to leave.
“If I don’t leave now, the strategist Fang Ya will starve to death.”
“Mom, are you leaving?”
“Don’t you want to sleep with Yaoyao tonight?”
The little one didn’t want to sleep alone. She slept better when she was with either Lu Qin or Shen Muyan. But ever since the little one started kindergarten, Lu Qin had insisted she sleep independently.
If Shen Muyan stayed, the little one would naturally sleep with her. Lu Qin, after finishing kneading the dough, ca out of the kitchen. Seeing Shen Muyan standing at the entrance with things in her hands, he asked, “Are you leaving?”
The rich woman spoke coldly, “I’m going to bring Fang Ya so food. I’ll be back soon.”
“Oh.”
Lu Qin glanced at her without showing much emotion.
Shen Muyan couldn’t tell what Lu Qin was feeling and asked, “Should I pay for the accommodation, Boss Lu?”
“No need.”
The rich woman stayed behind to accompany the little one to sleep. Lu Qin agreed, thinking the companionship was quite nice. Shen Muyan drove to Fang Ya’s place.
“Hurry up, I’m starving!”
As soon as Shen Muyan entered, still changing into her slippers, Fang Ya rushed over and grabbed the food from her hands.
“So this is Boss Oil Cake? Mmm… so delicious!”
Fang Ya was wearing pajamas, hadn’t tidied herself up, and had a ssy bun. She kept stuffing the crystal shrimp dumplings and Boss Oil Cake into her mouth. She swallowed slowly and then took a good look at Shen Muyan.
“Today’s outfit is really nice. If I were a man, I’d be totally smitten!”
Fang Ya spoke honestly, then continued eating.
“What was his reaction?”
Shen Muyan shook her head.
“Normal reaction.”
“A normal reaction would be to throw you down,” Fang Ya said and chewed on the shrimp dumpling. “Where’s the mung bean soup? Next ti, you have to bring a drink!”
“Having food is enough. Do you think this is a restaurant?” Shen Muyan replied impatiently.
“You think Lu Qin is a man who thinks with his lower body?”
“NONONO!”
Fang Ya shook her finger.
“All n think with their lower body. It’s just that your Lu Qin has an incredibly strong self-control. His level is high, looks like this situation can’t be rushed.”
“So what should we do next?” Shen Muyan asked.
“Well… there are too few crystal shrimp dumplings. Bring more next ti, I need physical and ntal energy to think!”
Fang Ya finished both portions, feeling about 80% full. When eating Boss Lu’s food, she felt twelve tis full at the least. Anything less was unsatisfying!
“Ti will tell… feelings will develop,” Fang Ya said with a knowing smile.
“In this process, use the thirty-six tactics to snare n,” she added.
Shen Muyan frowned.
“How exactly should I do it?”
“Cough, cough… hmm, I still need to sort out my thoughts. I’ll tell you later.”
Fang Ya, the strategist, still hadn’t fully figured out her plan… Ah, no, she hadn’t co up with the complete strategy yet. This needed ti.
While Fang Ya went to pour so water, Shen Muyan pulled out a book from between the sofa cushions.
“Guide to Winning the Heart of a Male God?”
“You said ‘later.’ Does that an you’ll finish reading this guide first?”
Shen Muyan felt she had made a mistake by asking Fang Ya for advice. After all, she was still single herself—why not use her own tricks?
Fang Ya, exposing her flaw, wasn’t flustered at all. She took a sip of water and casually said, “You have to trust , I’m experienced. Although I’ve never been married, I’ve been in two relationships. I have more experience than you.”
Shen Muyan chuckled, “My kid could be making soy sauce by now.”
“NONONO!” Fang Ya said and shook her finger. “Have you ever dated Lu Qin? Not at all? Don’t forget, you two got married because of the baby, and afterward, you’ve been so busy with work that your relationship is practically a blank sheet. So, you must listen to !”
Shen Muyan didn’t respond. When it ca to winning Lu Qin’s heart, she really had no clue what to do. In other words, she had absolutely no idea how to approach it.
Fang Ya wasn’t wrong in this case. Shen Muyan sighed in her heart. For now, she would go along with Fang Ya’s plan. If things went badly, she would fire her.
