Overnight Hit: Vicious Stepmother and Genius Son
Chapter 400

Chapter 400: 400

Dong Yan sighed, "Thank you, Zhenzhen. Yibo’s grandmother used to say the same to me. She has always been very supportive. So, for me, love can be dispensable, but since I had my child, I naturally adore him..."

This was also the reason she had returned to the country.

"Yeah, I understand, so just follow your heart, and let’s do whatever makes us comfortable."

It would be painful and unfair to both the adults and the child if two people, without feelings for each other, were forced to stay together because of their child.

Since they both had children, Ye Zhenzhen and Dong Yan didn’t stay too late for dinner. After sharing their thoughts with each other, the bond of friendship between them deepened.

When leaving, not only were the children reluctant to part, but Dong Yan also waved to Ye Zhenzhen and said, "Zhenzhen, let’s get together again after you finish recording the show. There will be a GK banquet in about ten days."

"Sure, let’s keep in touch."

"Definitely."

On the way back, Ye Zhenzhen reflected on Dong Yan’s words—marrying into a wealthy family without love...

This, combined with Su Xi’s shared views on marriage and what Dong Yan had said today, left her feeling somewhat confused.

Dong Yan was able to leave decisively because she had her career. Su Xi could hold Cheng Zheng firmly in her grasp and make him love and protect her, relying not only on the Su Family but also on her own abilities and personal charisma.

All indications told her that the only opportunity she could grasp now was her career, because, after all, no man was as reliable as a career.

Love, when it came to a career, was just the icing on the cake.

...

On Friday, after Xiao Chen went to kindergarten, Ye Zhenzhen visited the company.

Liu Rui said that several big brands had sought her out overnight, specifically requesting to collaborate with Zhenzhen.

It wasn’t surprising that they reacted so quickly; Zhenzhen’s GK shoot from yesterday was already buzzing on Weibo. GK’s official account also announced today that Ye Zhenzhen was their newest global spokesperson.

Releasing this news the day before the premiere of "Mom’s Companion" was undoubtedly free advertising for Lemon Channel.

Revealing this information was actually Dong Yan’s special instruction, as benefits and interests are mutual. With the combined traffic, both Ye Zhenzhen’s fame and their products’ visibility would grow.

As the two official accounts interacted, the fans were thrilled:

["I’ve said enough praises for Sister Zhenzhen. All I want to say is, I will always support her!"]

["Ye Zhenzhen’s resources are incredibly great, oh my god!"]

["By the way, is President Song going to participate in the kid’s variety show or not? Sister Zhenzhen, don’t tell me you were too busy and forgot to ask President Song?"]

["Actually, Sister Zhenzhen, if you’re too busy to contact him, you can just give me President Song’s phone number. I can help you ask, that should be okay, right?"]

["The abacus beads upstairs are clattering really loudly!"]

When Ye Zhenzhen arrived at the company with Yu Lili, they ran into Shao Qiqi coming their way. Previously, Shao Qiqi had looked at Yu Lili with an expression full of hatred. Now, seeing Ye Zhenzhen, Shao Qiqi’s eyes looked as if she wanted to devour her.

The most crucial thing was, judging from the look on Shao Qiqi’s face, it seemed like she had been crying.

After Yu Lili encountered Jiang Lu, she approached her with a grin and asked, "Sister Lulu, what happened to that woman?"

Yu Lili wasn’t worried about anything else, she just felt that Shao Qiqi’s gaze towards Sister Zhenzhen was very off, and subconsciously, a bad premonition arose within her.

"Heartbroken." Jiang Lu said this with a face full of disgust.

That night, she said she wanted to go to Hujin to see if she could tag along with Ye Zhenzhen for a meal and get to know Director Qi, but it didn’t work out. When she came out, she couldn’t get through to Shao Qiqi on the phone no matter how she tried.

As a result, the next day, that person was throwing tantrums at work, giving her an attitude, and that she couldn’t bear. Later, she heard that Shao Qiqi had been heartbroken, and after some thought, Jiang Lu let it go.

They were all working outside; a young girl heartbroken deserved some understanding.

But it had been several days, and Shao Qiqi’s tantrums were getting worse, so now Jiang Lu was also fed up, and she had already told Chen Ke to replace Shao Qiqi.

There were plenty of others to find, hiring such a troublesome ancestor as her life assistant just wasn’t worth it for her.

Yu Lili was shocked, heartbroken!

Heh~ Shao Qiqi has today too, huh? A sense of joy suddenly rose in her heart!

After Ye Zhenzhen entered Liu Rui’s office, Yu Lili went to the tea room to pour Zhenzhen a cup of coffee when she encountered Shao Qiqi again. She couldn’t help but smile and said, "Shao Qiqi, I heard, you’re heartbroken?"

Shao Qiqi’s face stiffened, and the hatred in her eyes rapidly gathered, glaring at Yu Lili.

Yu Lili disdainfully said, "You were quite adept at stealing other people’s boyfriends before, how about it, you had this day coming, huh?"

Although Sister Zhenzhen had said not to cause trouble, Yu Lili simply couldn’t swallow her pride. The resentment she felt towards Shao Qiqi had to be vented today to feel relieved.

The hatred between her and Shao Qiqi had originated over a boyfriend.

Shao Qiqi clenched her teeth, "My downfall today is all thanks to you and Ye Zhenzhen. I was almost able to gather the money for a house, about to register for marriage, but it was ruined by you and Ye Zhenzhen, you two bitches!"

Yu Lili was amused by her words, "What nonsense are you spouting? What does Sister Zhenzhen and I have to do with your boyfriend?"

"No relation? Dare you say that it wasn’t you who called the police and sent Zheng Di to prison?" Shao Qiqi was filled with anger and a face full of aggrievement.

"Do you know, we had already discussed which house to buy, just short of completing the marriage procedures, but then you and Ye Zhenzhen called the police, claiming he was using cocaine, he clearly wasn’t..."

Yu Lili: ...

She was a bit stunned, trying to process Shao Qiqi’s words. Wasn’t Zheng Di Xiaowen’s boyfriend?

And a particularly despicable scumbag at that. How did he become Shao Qiqi’s boyfriend?

More importantly, she remembered both of them mentioning saving up to buy a house and get married...

"Could you have been deceived? The Zheng Di you’re talking about is a scumbag, not only does he use drugs, he cheats, plays women..."

Yu Lili disliked Shao Qiqi, sure, but faced with such a vile scumbag, she felt some sympathy for her.

All are girls; no one wants to be cheated on by scumbags, especially such a top-grade animal.

Shao Qiqi cried out in agitation, "What are you blabbing about? Zheng Di can’t be that kind of person, he wouldn’t deceive me, our relationship has lasted many years."

Although it was confirmed from the police that Zheng Di had used cocaine, she had also heard from Zheng Di himself that it was just that one time, and he got caught.

As for cheating and playing women, she absolutely refused to believe such things; she knew very well what kind of person Zheng Di was, he couldn’t possibly be that kind of man...
