Overnight Hit: Vicious Stepmother and Genius Son
Chapter 401 Ridiculous!

Chapter 401: Chapter 401 Ridiculous!

"Whether I’m talking nonsense or not, you can go ask the police. Anyway, I’ve already told you what the situation is, believe it or not, it’s up to you."

Ye Zhenzhen no longer wanted to get entangled with Xiaowen; discussing it further would only drag other people into this mess, which would be troublesome.

But Yu Lili wasn’t willing to let it go just like that. She blocked Ye Zhenzhen’s path, "Wait, don’t leave!"

"What do you want?"

Yu Lili looked at Shao Qiqi’s face, which was filled with uncontrollable rage, feeling that any second now she might lash out violently.

"Was it you who went to the police station and reported that Zheng Di had hit you, right? It was actually Ye Zhenzhen who hit Zheng Di, how can you twist the truth? What he chooses to smoke is his own business, it’s not for you to interfere with, but you can’t slander him!"

Yu Lili rolled her eyes exasperatedly, "Have you lost your mind? Do you even know what you’re talking about?

Move aside, don’t block the way!"

Yu Lili pushed past Shao Qiqi and walked towards Liu Rui’s office.

Shao Qiqi watched Yu Lili walking away, her anger reaching a boiling point. Deep down, she was convinced that Ye Zhenzhen was conspiring with Yu Lili to take revenge on her, specifically targeting her boyfriend to ruin her relationship.

Right after Yu Lili stepped into Liu Rui’s office, Shao Qiqi followed closely behind.

Jiang Lu was also in the room. When she saw Shao Qiqi enter, her face darkened, "What are you doing here?"

Ye Zhenzhen had just called her in, saying there was an endorsement opportunity that they could consider together, and she wanted to ask for her opinion.

Shao Qiqi bit her lower lip hard, tears streaming down her cheeks from her eyes; she didn’t answer Jiang Lu, but instead walked straight up to Ye Zhenzhen and abruptly knelt down.

This action stunned everyone in the office.

Jiang Lu’s face was full of disdain, "Shao Qiqi, have you lost your mind?"

Ye Zhenzhen’s face showed no emotion as she asked indifferently, "What’s the matter?"

Since the other party was kneeling before her, she felt obliged to ask.

"Sister Zhenzhen..." Shao Qiqi’s words were choked by sobs before she could speak, as she began to cry out loud, "Ah... woo-woo..."

Shao Qiqi’s series of actions had completely baffled everyone around Ye Zhenzhen.

Ye Zhenzhen glanced at Yu Lili, and from Yu Lili’s look towards Shao Qiqi, she sensed that the other party might know something.

"Lili, what’s going on with her?"

Yu Lili snorted irritably, not expecting that the usually arrogant Shao Qiqi, who often seemed pleased with herself, would be kneeling like this before Sister Zhenzhen.

Just as she was about to speak, Shao Qiqi’s crying intensified, resembling the sound of someone wrongfully accused and deeply wronged, which unsettled everyone present.

Yu Lili wore the same expression as Jiang Lu, filled with disgust, "Can you stop crying? This has nothing to do with Sister Zhenzhen!"

The more Yu Lili spoke, the harder Shao Qiqi cried.

Shao Qiqi was torn inside; she loathed Ye Zhenzhen and didn’t want to see her, yet now she found herself forced to plead with Ye Zhenzhen. Just thinking about how her situation had deteriorated because of Ye Zhenzhen left her too emotionally agitated and furious to speak.

The mixture of resentment and hatred in her heart was like a net, tightly entangling her heart; with every beat, she felt unbearable torment and anguish.

Liu Rui frowned and intended to help Shao Qiqi up, "Qiqi, get up first, dont’t cry so loudly. If others outside hear you, they’ll think we’ve done something to you."

In the last few days, Shao Qiqi has been off her game at work, and Jiang Lu said she didn’t want Shao Qiqi, but she hadn’t brought herself to tell Shao Qiqi yet. Given the way Shao Qiqi was acting now, she found it even harder to broach the subject.

Avoiding Liu Rui, Shao Qiqi cried out, "No need, I won’t get up... Ow... Sister Zhenzhen, I beg you, please help me... I’m kneeling down to beg you, please leave my husband alone... I..."

Yu Lili raised an eyebrow, Husband?

Wasn’t he just her boyfriend a moment ago, and now he’s her husband?

Ye Zhenzhen asked Yu Lili again, "What’s going on?"

Yu Lili briefly recounted what had happened in the pantry, after which Shao Qiqi immediately objected, "That’s not true, you’re falsely accusing him, my husband didn’t hit you guys at all."

Liu Rui and Jiang Lu felt speechless.

After listening, Ye Zhenzhen felt nothing but shock inside. That beast was stringing along two girls at the same time, playing the field, and from what Yu Lili had just said, it seemed both Shao Qiqi and Xiaowen were saving to buy a house for that beast.

Shao Qiqi seemed unaware that Xiaowen had been dragged into this.

Without lifting an eyelid, Ye Zhenzhen spoke in an even tone, "Your husband’s criminal behavior is his own problem. The police enforce the law, and I have no power to interfere. Begging me here is pointless."

Xiaowen had finally begun to see things more clearly these past two days, and she couldn’t let Xiaowen be mired in this scandal any longer.

Jiang Lu: "Shao Qiqi, you’d better get up. Even if you kneel here until it gets dark, it won’t make any difference. Your husband has broken the law, and there’s no way anyone can help him now."

"No, it’s not like that, Sister Zhenzhen, as long as you don’t sue Zheng Di, he will be released soon. Can you please help me? I won’t pursue the matter of you hitting him, I just ask for your help. I can’t let the child in my womb grow up without a father..."

Yu Lili: ...

Utterly speechless!

Liu Rui frowned, "Shao Qiqi, are you trying to emotionally blackmail us here? We are all women, and we sympathize with your pregnancy, but you can’t use that as an excuse to have Zhenzhen help your criminal husband, can you?"

Seeing everyone condemning her, Shao Qiqi’s crying grew even more pitiful, "I’m not emotionally blackmailing anyone, I... I just want the child inside me to have a father..."

A chill settled in Ye Zhenzhen’s eyes as she heard Shao Qiqi’s words, thinking she might still want to make trouble for her?

To talk about pursuing her responsibility now, how ridiculous!

Even though they were all women, and anyone would soften at heart and feel a desire to help her in such a situation, Ye Zhenzhen felt it was unnecessary for someone like Shao Qiqi; she simply wasn’t worth pitying.

"Shao Qiqi, I’ve told you nothing but the truth. Instead of kneeling here and begging me, you should think about what to do next. That man is not worth your efforts.

When you have the time, you’d better visit the police station to confirm, and ask if a man who ingested that kind of substance can give you a healthy child? Also, I suggest you go to the hospital for a check-up. It’s best not to let an innocent young life become unlucky."

That was nothing less than subhuman!

What kind of person is he? Forget being a man; he doesn’t even deserve to be human!

Thinking about Xiaowen’s dinner conversation with her, and now seeing Shao Qiqi, she really felt disgusted.

If Shao Qiqi, such a shrewd person, could be deceived, it was no wonder Xiaowen fell for it too.

Seeing Shao Qiqi still clinging to the ground, Liu Rui spoke with some impatience, "Shao Qiqi, you’d better leave now. While the child is still small, you need to make plans. Once you decide, the company will approve your leave so you can take care of your health."

"But..."
