Overnight Hit: Vicious Stepmother and Genius Son
Chapter 270 He’s Lying!

Chapter 270: Chapter 270 He’s Lying!

Jiangcheng, Shen Corporation.

Shen Zhaonan sat in front of his work desk, looking at the two little faces on the computer screen, his expression growing increasingly tense.

He picked up the landline and dialed his assistant’s extension, "Book a ticket to Jincheng."

No sooner had he hung up the phone than an unfamiliar call came through on his cell. As soon as he answered, the voice on the other end rained down upon him:

"Can you handle Yibo or not? If you can’t, then give me back my child’s custody!"

At the sound of this voice, Shen Zhaonan furrowed his brows and coldly refused, "Don’t even think about it."

"Shen Zhaonan, you’re blind and fool-hearted, look at what kind of trash you picked for a second marriage. If you’d paid the slightest attention to Yibo, I wouldn’t be making this call today. What do you have my son call her? Call her Mom? But does that woman fulfill the most basic duties of a ’Mom’? Does she?"

"Dong Yan, regarding the matter of Yibo, I will handle it. As for Han Jiangxue, she is currently my wife, so please show some respect when you speak about her. You..."

"Ha! Respect? What does she have that deserves my respect? And don’t say you’ll handle it, I’m not calling to discuss with you, I’m here to inform and to warn you that I will be reapplying for the child’s custody in court.

Also, for that actress, if she dares to pull something on my son behind my back, I won’t let her off!"

The person on the other side finished speaking and hung up immediately.

Shen Zhaonan threw his phone onto the desk with a thud, angrily scattering all the folders on the desk onto the floor.

After finishing his midday call with Madam Shen, he received the documents sent by her, all of which were investigations about Han Jiangxue that Madam Shen had commissioned, and some involved Jiangxue and Shen Yibo.

If he was somewhat undecided in his heart upon seeing those documents, thinking that he’d listen to Han Jiangxue herself when they meet, then his resolve faltered when he saw the conversation between Shen Yibo and Song Yuchen.

Han Jiangxue had been secretly indulging Shen Yibo in eating these junk foods and drinking beverages, while in front of him, she claimed she’d never given the child any.

Thinking back carefully, there were one or two occasions when Shen Yibo had slipped up in his words, and Han Jiangxue’s response was that the child had been pestering to eat, so she bought just a little to satisfy his craving.

All these signs indicated that Han Jiangxue was lying.

Besides the issue with the child, Shen Zhaonan also became fairly certain that Han Jiangxue has constantly been feeding him pleasing words...

The words of Madam Shen suddenly echoed in Shen Zhaonan’s mind:

Divorce Han Jiangxue!

He rubbed his temples, picked up the cellphone from the desk, stood up, and looking at Shen Yibo’s chubby little face on the monitor, he said:

"Xiao Xue, about Yibo’s issue, I want to hear your explanation in person. Also, I hope you haven’t lied to me about the Mr. and Mrs. Cheng matter. If you’ve lied about that too, then I really have no way to trust you anymore!"

...

At the holiday resort.

Han Jiangxue found an electric sightseeing car provided by the show crew in the park area. It was a two-seater with four wheels. She drove back to the hotel, planning to find Shen Yibo and go skiing together, only to learn that Yibo was resting in the room with Ye Zhenzhen and the others.

Actually, she felt very unhappy inside, but there was nothing she could do about it. She might as well go back to her room and rest.

By the time she awoke, it was already past four in the afternoon.

Considering the ski competition tomorrow, she hurriedly got ready and went downstairs, thinking of asking the front desk to call Ye Zhenzhen’s room and to have Shen Yibo come down so she could take him to the ski slope for some practice.

If they didn’t win first place tomorrow, she feared that she wouldn’t even be able to sort out their accommodations for the night.

As soon as Han Jiangxue walked into the hotel lobby, Xiaowen called out to her, "Sister Xiao Xue, please come here."

"What is it?"

"Your husband said it’s urgent and called the program crew here. I’ll give you back your phone; you can go over there to call him back."

Han Jiangxue took the phone Xiaowen handed her, glanced at the busy lobby, and then said to Xiaowen, "Can I go back to my room to make the call? It’s a bit inconvenient here."

Receiving a call from Shen Zhaonan at this time, she thought it was most likely about Mrs. Cheng’s incident.

She guessed that Shen Zhaonan must have watched the live broadcast in the morning, so she now had to be even more cautious when calling him back.

After a thought, Xiaowen, considering it was just a phone call, said, "Okay, but you’ll need to give it back to me in half an hour. You can’t break the program rules."

"Okay, thank you!"

[How come the program crew is still so lenient with Han Jiangxue, damn it!]

[Don’t be like that. They said it already, didn’t they? Han Jiangxue’s husband is looking for her. Maybe he knows about these things and is going to scold her, haha!]

[Upstairs, you really have quite the imagination, huh?]

[When Ye Zhenzhen can roam the resort freely with her husband’s black card, what’s the big deal about Han Jiangxue using her own phone to call her husband back? Let’s not be too serious, folks.]

[By comparison, I feel that the program rules are, after all, a little more lenient toward Sister Zhenzhen, haha!]

After getting back to her room, Han Jiangxue immediately called Shen Zhaonan. When he picked up, he had just left the Shen Family and was holding the things Madam Shen gave him, now preparing to head to the airport for Jincheng.

"Husband, what was the urgent matter you were calling about?" Han Jiangxue spoke first.

Shen Zhaonan felt a ripple in his heart when he heard Han Jiangxue’s voice. His tone was very calm as he asked, "You said that after the program ends, you would arrange a meeting for me with Mrs. Cheng. I want to discuss the details with you, so I can prepare on my end."

After saying that, Shen Zhaonan thought to himself, Han Jiangxue, as long as you now admit to me that your relationship with Mrs. Cheng is just a passing one and not that strong, that you can’t guarantee a partnership, I am still willing to consider giving you another chance.

Han Jiangxue chuckled, knowing that Shen Zhaonan had called her about this matter, "Don’t worry about this, once the recording ends tomorrow night, you come to Jincheng, and the day after tomorrow, Friday, I’ll take you to meet Mrs. Cheng.

Oh, I made an appointment with her today, and Mrs. Cheng’s assistant said she’s been a bit busy these past two days and doesn’t have much time, but Friday should be okay. I guess she will grant us the face once you’re here in Jincheng."

After hearing her answer, Shen Zhaonan felt some disappointment, Han Jiangxue was still lying to him!

"Okay, then I’ll wait for your good news!"

Han Jiangxue continued to laugh, "Mhm, just wait, it will definitely be good news..."

Before Han Jiangxue could say more, Shen Zhaonan abruptly hung up the phone on his end. She stared at her phone in a daze for a few seconds, then suddenly thinking of everything that had happened today, she quickly accessed the Weibo page...
