Overnight Hit: Vicious Stepmother and Genius Son
Chapter 252 Fair?

Chapter 252: Chapter 252 Fair?

Han Jiangxue said this not out of any specific reason, other than not wanting to make it easy for Ye Zhenzhen and also to maintain her caring mother image in front of the cameras.

It wasn’t that she didn’t want to fight for first place, but that the production team didn’t clarify that the reward for coming first included skiing equipment.

If the production team had laid out the rules clearly in advance, she would certainly have worked even harder for Yibo, so the final result would definitely not have been last place.

Last night, Xiaowen admittedly said that Ye Zhenzhen was getting flamed by netizens, and she couldn’t understand why Ye Zhenzhen kept coming out on top every time.

Whereas she herself kept coming in last place, it felt as though she could have been in first place if it weren’t for Ye Zhenzhen, leading to vastly different outcomes.

This feeling was extremely frustrating to her.

[Is Han Jiangxue out of her mind, does she even know what she’s saying? What does she mean the results could be different?]

[Exactly, last place is last place, could it possibly turn into first place?]

[Actually, I think, the production team really should have clarified the rules during the game just now, bringing this up now that the game’s over is a bit off!]

[Isn’t this typical for variety shows, just get used to it, as long as my Zhenzhen isn’t wronged, that’s fine!]

[Doesn’t anyone else feel like Han Jiangxue is such a troublemaker? From the first episode until now, I truly find her annoying!]

[Yes, yes, yes, totally agree, it’s such a happy occasion, everyone finishes the game, slides down the hill, and goes home for a meal, yet she’s here yapping on and on!]

After hearing what Han Jiangxue had said, Xiaowen’s smile faded a bit, and she spoke bluntly, "Sister Xiao Xue, the rankings are already set, and the production team didn’t deliberately arrange for four tires for the five guest teams. There were simply only four tires available to borrow in the village.

And the reason why we didn’t announce the rules before the game was that we hadn’t secured the tires at that time.

We weren’t even sure if we could proceed with the skiing game, so we didn’t explain in advance."

After hearing Xiaowen’s words, the smile on Han Jiangxue’s face stiffened, "Since there were only four, and the production team didn’t state the game rules beforehand, wouldn’t it be fairer if we mothers just scrambled for them ourselves?"

Xiaowen: "Sister Xiao Xue, as a guest of the show, I hope you can understand and abide by the game rules. It’s also mealtime now, can we finish up and then go home to eat?

I believe everyone is hungry too!"

Xiaowen’s response to Han Jiangxue sounded gentle, but in reality, she was not giving Han Jiangxue any face.

She was indirectly saying that Han Jiangxue was causing trouble and even delaying everyone’s mealtime.

Such a simple matter, just accept being in last place, okay!

Actually, Director Fei originally wanted the five mothers to scramble for the four tires, with the first ones grabbing a tire keeping it, and the last one naturally missing out.

Late on, seeing that Ye Zhenzhen’s score was actually the highest, he changed his decision at the last minute and assigned them according to their rankings, just in case Ye Zhenzhen didn’t get a tire during the scramble!

No matter what, Ye Zhenzhen must not be disadvantaged.

[Sometimes I think Xiaowen’s words are truly hidden daggers behind a smile, so impressive!]

[Nonsense, could someone be a chief assistant on the show if they didn’t have a way with words?]

[Han Jiangxue, you’d better wise up, stop throwing a tantrum. Isn’t it better to go back and have a meal early in this cold weather?]

Shen Yibo smiled foolishly at Xiaowen, "Aunt Xiaowen, I’m hungry!"

When it came to choosing between skiing and eating, Little Yibo believed eating was definitely more important.

Xiaowen replied, "Then, how about Yibo holds Mommy’s hand and we go down the mountain to eat, okay?"

"Okay!"

After Shen Yibo said that, he took Han Jiangxue’s hand and suggested, "Mommy, let’s go. I’ll lead you, and we’ll head down the mountain to eat first!"

Han Jiangxue gritted her teeth silently, thinking to herself, Shen Yibo, Shen Yibo, when will you stop thinking about eating?

Weren’t you the one who wanted to play just now? Didn’t I say this also because of you?

Ultimately, Han Jiangxue still held back. She smiled at Xiaowen and said, "Sorry, Xiaowen. I didn’t realize it was like this, my bad!"

She pridefully thought that her greatest virtue was her tolerance, convinced she could endure more than Ye Zhenzhen could—then, she would quietly wait for the day when Ye Zhenzhen’s true colors would be revealed and her house of cards would collapse!

Xiaowen forced a smile without humour and grimaced, "Mm, just make sure to go down slowly when you descend."

Lin Qianqian eyed Han Jiangxue’s gait and could tell that her legs, having been hit, were in some pain, which might lead to a fall during the descent.

During the recent snowball fight, she had noticed that the fight between Han Jiangxue and Ye Zhenzhen was intense. The snowballs Han Jiangxue threw at Ye Zhenzhen were all thrown back, and Ye Zhenzhen’s were bigger and more accurate.

Remembering that just a few days ago, Han Jiangxue had talked to her about the role of the second female lead in "Ren Pingsheng", Lin Qianqian glanced at Ye Zhenzhen not too far away, sighed softly, and then called out to Han Jiangxue, "Xiao Xue, Yibo, you two play. Little Yu and I won’t ski, we’ll leave it to you!"

Upon hearing her mother’s words, Fang Xiaoyu smiled at Shen Yibo and said, "Yeah, Yibo, you all play. I am afraid to ride this now."

Just a moment ago, Fang Xiaoyu had whispered to Lin Qianqian that she was hesitant to go down on the tire.

The last time she had played like this at the ski resort with her dad, she had been flung far off during the descent and hurt her bottom, so she wasn’t very interested in tire skiing.

It was precisely because she heard her own daughter express reluctance that Lin Qianqian had unhesitatingly offered the opportunity to Han Jiangxue.

After all, once this reality show was over, they would be close partners in the same drama crew. Such an opportune favor was not to be missed.

Upon hearing this, Shen Yibo happily shook Fang Xiaoyu’s hand to thank her, "Little Yu sister, thank you so much!"

Fang Xiaoyu: "Yibo, I am the older sister; I am older than you by 12 days!"

"Then thank you, big sister!"

"You’re welcome! Be careful, okay?"

Shen Yibo patted his chest confidently, "Don’t worry, I definitely won’t fall."

As soon as the talk with Fang Xiaoyu ended, he unfeelingly let go of the little girl’s hand, turned his head, and announced to Song Yuchen with an innocent smile, "Xiao Chen, here I come! I’m gonna slide down with you!"

Upon seeing Shen Yibo running toward him, Song Yuchen also smiled joyfully and opened his arms to give the approaching Shen Yibo a big bear hug!

[Hahaha, Shen Yibo you little fool, aren’t you hilarious!]

[Xiao Chen and Little Yibo have such a good relationship. These two kiddos should just get sworn in as brothers!]

[I never thought Fang Xiaoyu was actually the older sister. How do these kids know who’s older and who’s younger?]

[To the person above, it’s obvious you haven’t been watching the show seriously. They discussed this on the first day when they arrived at Yangping Village in the car. You just didn’t pay attention.]
