Overnight Hit: Vicious Stepmother and Genius Son
Chapter 137: Pocket Money?

Chapter 137: Chapter 137: Pocket Money?

Hongshan Villa District.

Yu Lili had returned with Ye Zhenzhen and Xiao Chen. As Ye Zhenzhen’s assistant, she would now be residing here, along with Aunt Li.

When Aunt Li saw Yu Lili returning with them, her face beamed with joy.

However, upon seeing her daughter’s attire, she frowned and chided, "Lili, as you’ll be working with Mrs. Ye, you should dress more simply and modestly. Save these clothes for when you’re not working."

Yu Lili, smiling, went to cling to her mother’s arm and cooed, "Mom, I just went out this morning and was in a hurry to deliver lunch to Sister Zhenzhen at noon, so I didn’t have time to change."

The outfit Yu Lili was wearing had been a birthday gift from Madam Song. Besides this one, Madam Song had also bought her two other sets of clothing.

Yu Lili’s parents had lived and worked for the Song family for many years, and the Songs had long considered them as half family. Madam Song was very fond of Yu Lili, seeing her as a sensible and sweet young girl.

Ye Zhenzhen laughed, "It’s alright, Aunt Li. Whatever she wears doesn’t matter as long as Lili feels comfortable in it."

She wasn’t too particular about such things. After all, Lili was younger than her, and it was natural for girls to want to look beautiful.

Yu Lili turned to Ye Zhenzhen with a smile, "Sister Zhenzhen, my mom is right. Now that I’m your assistant, I should certainly pay attention to how I dress. I just thought about getting the food to you quickly and didn’t have time to change."

Hearing this, Ye Zhenzhen was even more assured that she had chosen the right assistant, "Okay, just be yourself."

With a mother like Aunt Li to guide her, Ye Zhenzhen felt quite confident about Yu Lili.

Ye Zhenzhen took off her coat, and Yu Lili took it promptly, helping her hang it up. Ye Zhenzhen spoke softly, "Lili, we have maids at home; there’s no need for you to do this. It’s your time off now, you should go and rest."

Aunt Li glanced at her daughter with a tinge of disapproval, "Mrs. Ye, don’t spoil her. Let her do some work. And if there’s anything not quite right with Lili, just tell me, and I, as her mother, will teach her."

"Mom! Don’t worry, I will definitely listen to Mrs. Ye."

Ye Zhenzhen laughed, "You might as well just call me Sister Zhenzhen."

It would be awkward if it slipped out during busy times outside, always addressing her formally as Mrs. Ye.

"Okay, Sister Zhenzhen."

Song Yuchen had changed his shoes and was playing with Watermelon in the living room. After watching Ye Zhenzhen go back to her room upstairs, he toddled over to Aunt Li, "Aunt Li, could you teach me how to cook?"

Aunt Li smiled, "Young master, why do you want to learn cooking?"

"Umm..." Song Yuchen was a bit embarrassed as he looked in the direction where Ye Zhenzhen had left, whispering to Aunt Li, "I want to cook for mom.

Shh! You mustn’t let my mom find out!"

Aunt Li’s smile was affectionate, "Okay, Aunt Li will teach you."

The little fellow followed Aunt Li into the kitchen and earnestly began learning to cook.

Shu Siyu knew how to cook; he must learn too. The next time he appeared on a show, he wanted to cook for Ye Zhenzhen.

And then he would show Shu Siyu that he could cook as well.

After returning to her room, Ye Zhenzhen took a bath and changed into comfortable home wear.

Then she called Da Mi back. On the way home, Da Mi had messaged her on WeChat asking to settle some recent expenses.

When the call connected, Da Mi’s voice sounded very youthful, "Mrs. Ye, just give a ballpark figure, I need to pay my rent soon."

That voice echoed in Ye Zhenzhen’s mind, feeling very familiar yet she couldn’t match it to any face she could recall.

How the original owner had become acquainted with such an impressive individual was beyond her.

What was key was the incredible efficiency at getting things done.

Ye Zhenzhen asked, "How much is a ballpark figure?"

"The usual, let’s start with 100,000 yuan."

Ye Zhenzhen: ...

If you say it’s expensive, it really is, but on the other hand, considering the things they’ve done for her, it’s not pricey at all.

If there’s one thing in society that’s most valuable, it’s definitely talent.

And Da Mi is truly a talent.

"Alright, I’ll transfer it to you right away,"

"Cool, count on me for any future favors."

After hanging up the call, Ye Zhenzhen unlocked her mobile banking app with her fingerprint to check her account balance. She had spent quite a bit yesterday and hadn’t received a text message notification, so she had no idea how much money was left in her account.

But she got the shock of her life when she did look!

One two three four five six seven eight!

An eight-figure bank account balance...

Was the original owner of this body that rich?

That couldn’t be right. The original owner was just a small-time celebrity who was blacklisted on the internet and didn’t even have a representative work to her name. How could she have this much money?

Ye Zhenzhen clicked on the transaction details of the account and saw that the most recent transfer happened this afternoon!

From Song Jinze.

The memo read: pocket money!

Ye Zhenzhen’s pupils shrank. That man had actually transferred 10 million yuan to her as pocket money in the afternoon!!!

At that moment, Ye Zhenzhen’s heartbeat inexplicably began to race, and the face of that handsome man flashed through her blank mind, from the first day she’d arrived and seen his cold and handsome face, to recently, when she started to find him more and more pleasing to the eye...

Especially now, with him quietly transferring so much ’pocket money’ to her.

It was genuinely both surprising and delightful!

Seriously, are the overbearing CEOs in novels always this outrageously generous, transferring millions as pocket money just like that?

Ye Zhenzhen didn’t think too much about it after that and logged out of the banking app. She opened WeChat and transferred two sums of 50,000 yuan to Da Mi.

Apart from the money the man had transferred to her, she still had a few hundred thousand in her card, which was more than enough for her expenses for the foreseeable future.

It wouldn’t be long before she received the payment for the first episode of the kids’ variety show she had recorded. Money was not something she lacked.

After some thought, Ye Zhenzhen transferred another 2,000 yuan to Da Mi.

[Ye Zhenzhen]: It’s for your meal.

Da Mi replied quickly: Finally, you’re being generous for once!

Ye Zhenzhen: ...

By the time Ye Zhenzhen came downstairs, dinner was ready.

Song Yuchen was sitting at the dining table waiting for Ye Zhenzhen to join him for dinner, "Mommy, come on, it’s time to eat!"

"Okay," Ye Zhenzhen said with a smile, sitting next to Song Yuchen, and patted his little head, "Have you washed your hands?"

"Of course!"

Just now, the little guy had been in the kitchen standing on a stool, watching Aunt Li and learning. He saw Aunt Li cutting and frying vegetables and even had a go at it himself.

And it must be said, he seemed to have a knack for it; even Aunt Li couldn’t help but praise the little guy’s cleverness. He handled the spatula confidently and looked like he knew what he was doing when he tried to stir-fry.

As for cutting vegetables, Aunt Li did not dare let the little one try, as handling knives still needed caution.

During dinner, Song Yuchen focused on eating his food, but his mind was preoccupied with how he would talk to his dad when he got home, thinking about making breakfast with his dad for Ye Zhenzhen the next morning.

Meanwhile, Ye Zhenzhen was thinking that the little guy hadn’t mentioned anything about his afternoon at the kindergarten. He must have forgotten, right?

If he had forgotten, then she definitely should not bring up the topic.
