The Male Lead’s Villainess Stepmother

Chapter 42 – Romance Killer (3)

“No problem. I shall get ready right away.” Yan Shuyu couldn’t walk away from their table any faster than she did. She had stopped plotting about earning a generous tip. She just wanted to get rid of his majesty as quickly as possible. Her son was about to get out in a little over an hour. When the little kiddo saw Zhou Qinhe there, he just might throw himself at him.

The most important point was that it was quite obvious that the big boss and WRP were on a date, and the chemistry was good. If her instant son glued onto Zhou Qinhe as though he was his real father, that’d be interesting. The mental picture was so pretty that Yan Shuyu had to stop picturing it.

The female customer had already hinted to some relaxing music. Had Yan Shuyu been more understanding, she would have played some romantic classics along the line of Mariage D’Amour (Marriage of Love). But, the problem was that she was worried that the ambience would be too romantic, and the big boss wouldn’t want to leave for a while. That would be an issue. So, Yan Shuyu had no choice but to choose to let down Miss WRP and started playing a classic piece from the animation Howl’s Moving Castle – Merry-Go-Round of Life.

When the especially cheerful melody started playing in the coffee shop, all the servers and customers turned and looked.

Yan Shuyu, the romance killer, was completely immersed in the cheerful music.

The piece might have been a bit goofy, but it was, after all, done by Master Hayao Miyazaki’s best partner Joe Hisaishi. It had become a classic because it was cheerful and catchy. In addition, Yan Shuyu’s piano skills had gone up significantly since her transmigration, so her performance perfectly captured the spirit of the piece. The customers might have been surprised at first, but slowly they were drawn by the music from the piano.

Merry-Go-Round of Life was just the appetizer, the better was yet to follow. As soon as she finished her first piece, Yan Shuyu started playing the children song Little Leap Frog. She was fearless right now having already given up all hopes on any tips but performing a children song in a coffee shop during afternoon tea time was still hysterical and ruined the mood.

Yan Shuyu’s performance had finally got the big boss’s attention. After she had finished her performance of Little Leap Frog, Zhou Qinhe stood up. For some reason, Miss WRP did not walk out with him.

To go downstairs, one must walk pass the piano. When Zhou Qinhe walked past Yan Shuyu, he dropped her a compliment, “Your children song…. it’s quite good.”

Yan Shuyu replied, “Thank you?”

Was the big boss so mad that he had lost his mind? =.=

Now that she had successfully gotten rid of the big boss, Yan Shuyu felt bad about Miss WRP. Just when she was about to play some relaxing melody to make it up to her, her goofy performance had already caught the attention of the customers of two other tables. Both tables were reunion of old friends so they didn’t mind the mood being even goofier. They quickly requested a few more unique pieces of music.

Naturally, Yan Shuyu wasn’t going to turn down any of her side businesses. That’s how the romantic Sunshine House turned into a goofy atmosphere coffee shop for the afternoon.

This batch of customers were also goofy and fun-loving. While Yan Shuyu was playing the piano, some of them started dancing, some started singing, and some played the role of “photographers” and took pictures and videos of them.

Yan Shuyu had a lot of fun while surrounded by these young people. It was after her performance was over that she realized that Miss WRP had left at some point. She didn’t care that much.

However, later that day, the girl manning the cash register showed her the extra income of the day. It well exceed her normal one-day’s pay. For a short while there, Yan Shuyu almost wanted the big boss and WRP to come more often. If they come more often, she just might become rich herself!

Perhaps Yan Shuyu’s “prayer” had really worked it’s magic. The big boss, indeed, returned in two days, except this time he didn’t bring with him Miss WRP, but his son Zhou Yi.
