Overnight Hit: Vicious Stepmother and Genius Son
Chapter 265

Chapter 265: 265

Shen Yibo’s torrent of words was, for the little one, simply the plain truth. He just didn’t want to follow Han Jiangxue anymore; he liked Xiao Chen and Aunt Zhenzhen and wanted to be with them.

However, these words contained a large amount of information, so much so that they sent the viewers in the live stream into an uproar;

[I fucking want to curse. Before, everyone kept saying Ye Zhenzhen was the evil stepmother, but now after hearing Little Yibo talk, I think Han Jiangxue is the real evil stepmother!]

[What did Shen Yibo just say? That last time in Anshan Han Jiangxue was mean to him? She wouldn’t give him food and even said she would never buy him fried chicken burgers again?]

[Besides fried chicken burgers there were chocolate and fruit candies, clearly Jiangxue has been threatening and luring the little guy with these treats all along!]

[Do you remember the first episode in Anshan? When Han Jiangxue and Wu Yuerou came down from the mountain they started being harsh to the child. To think that they made the kid go hungry and scolded him that night!]

[Such a cute child ah, how could Han Jiangxue have the heart to be so cruel!]

[How could she not be cruel? He isn’t her own child, so naturally she doesn’t care!]

After being stunned for a few seconds, Han Jiangxue finally reacted. She walked up to Shen Yibo, crouched down in front of him, and smiled warmly and kindly, "Yibo, if you want to eat meat, Mommy can take you to buy some. As long as it’s healthy meat, Mommy can buy it for you. The foods you’re talking about are all junk food, you always fuss about wanting to eat them, but Mommy definitely can’t buy them for you!"

Now that the little fatty had said his piece, that was all she could say in return. She couldn’t let her painstakingly cultivated image of a kind stepmother be overturned just because of the little fatty’s few words.

Besides, how could words from a 5-year-old be taken seriously? Indeed, she had said those words, but the right to explain them was also in her hands. Whether something was black or white could all be determined by her own spin.

Shen Yibo pouted, his little face full of unhappiness. Sometimes he really did pester Mommy for chocolate, fried chicken legs, and lots of tasty sweets, and when Mommy got angry, she would refuse to let him eat them.

Han Jiangxue saw that Shen Yibo had finally stopped talking. She reached out to touch the little one’s chubby cheeks and continued, "About last time in Anshan, it was because Mommy didn’t have any money with her, not because Mommy didn’t want to buy you food.

Mommy scolded you because you and Ruirui were still making noise when it was time to sleep, which prevented Auntie from resting. Later, didn’t Mommy explain everything to you?"

Having said all this, Han Jiangxue forcefully picked up the little fatty and hugged him in her arms. She appeared to affectionately kiss him for the onlookers, but she whispered very softly into the little one’s ear, "Don’t talk about those things anymore; it causes me a lot of trouble!"

Shen Yibo blinked and looked at Han Jiangxue with an innocent face. Had what he just said caused Mommy trouble?

At that moment, the little one thought of what Daddy had told him before: when Mommy is having a hard time, he should be understanding and not cause Mommy any trouble. He was a boy, and Mommy was a girl; he had to take good care of girls.

"I understand, I won’t talk about those things anymore!"

Han Jiangxue smiled and kissed the little one’s face, "You’re such a good boy, Yibo, not angry with Mommy anymore. How about Mommy buys you some tasty meat?"

Shen Yibo shook his head, "Mommy, you just said you didn’t buy me tasty food because you had no money. You don’t have much money this time either, so you should keep it. I want to go eat tasty food with Xiao Chen."

The milky voice had lost the earlier fervor and took on a cute and soft charm.

Yet, these words still sounded harsh to Han Jiangxue’s ears. What she wanted was for Shen Yibo not to follow Ye Zhenzhen, yet the little fatty was stubbornly set in his ways.

[Little Yibo, this little fool, is indeed very stubborn about food, hahaha!]

[Han Jiangxue’s words seem so far-fetched, I believe a five-year-old child wouldn’t lie, such an innocent and cute kid who only likes to eat wouldn’t make up such stories.]

[I also feel that Han Jiangxue’s explanation is so far-fetched!]

[Alright, I’ve seen enough, Han Jiangxue has some serious issues. Let’s not go on about how Han Jiangxue is capable of caring for children anymore, it’s all darn fake.]

[I noticed it from the first episode, yet some people are marketed so well, always claiming to be the kindhearted stepmother, pah!]

[Aren’t our Xiao Xue’s words right, after all? A five-year-old child might not even be aware of what he’s saying when he speaks.]

[Moronic fans with cognitive deficits, don’t come here showing off, with the same brains as Han Jiangxue, disgusting!]

In just those few short minutes, both the hotel lobby and the live broadcast room had turned into Han Jiangxue’s personal stage. But no matter what she tried, it was all to no avail.

The image of Han Jiangxue in everyone’s hearts had already collapsed; it was just that she was deceiving herself, oblivious to the truth.

In Little Yibo’s heart, delicious food comes above all else, coupled with the fact that before they set off, his grandma had told him he could confidently and boldly reach out to Aunt Zhenzhen without fear of upsetting his mother.

Now, he was even less inhibited.

The other guests could naturally guess what was going on from the conversation between Han Jiangxue and Shen Yibo. Lin Qianqian and Xu Wanjia had already lost their initial goodwill towards Han Jiangxue and even felt antipathy toward her.

As the children’s biological mothers, they knew all too well the difficulties of raising and caring for children. With this incident involving the children, they could say they were quite disgusted with Han Jiangxue. How could someone like her have the audacity to constantly boast on Weibo about how well she treats the children and how caring she is?

An Xi had been watching everything with a disinterested eye. She didn’t have much experience dealing with children, but she knew one thing: even if she really wanted to get closer to Gu Xiaoran, she shouldn’t tempt the child with junk food.

So, in the end, Han Jiangxue was indeed unfit to be a stepmother.

As for Ye Zhenzhen, seeing all this stirred her inside. She felt she knew more about Han Jiangxue than the others.

Witnessing this scene gave her a sense of déjà vu. In the original novel, the original protagonist apparently tempted Xiao Chen with food, but Xiao Chen wasn’t very interested in eating.

Now, seeing Shen Yibo and Han Jiangxue like this, she suddenly felt as if the situations had been reversed—as if what was supposed to happen to her character was now happening to Han Jiangxue, the original female lead.

But luckily, although Little Yibo seemed simple-minded, his speech was quite astute. Ye Zhenzhen only hoped that the father of the child or other family members had seen today’s live broadcast.

At this moment, among the guests, not a single person spoke up for Han Jiangxue. She herself felt it was pointless and very awkward. She couldn’t force Shen Yibo anymore and only said, "Then, Yibo, go to dinner with Aunt Zhenzhen. Be a good boy, okay? Mommy will go upstairs to grab your thermos, and I’ll come to find you, alright?"

Shen Yibo happily nodded, "Okay!"
