Overnight Hit: Vicious Stepmother and Genius Son
Chapter 487

Chapter 487: 487

The group had not walked far when they arrived at the sugarcane field. From a distance, it looked vast, with no end in sight.

Yang Yike exclaimed, "Wow~ these sugarcane plants are so tall!"

Song Yuchen and Gu Xiaoran also jumped into the field, craning their necks as they gestured, "They really are tall!"

"I want to see too!"

Ji Yunyun hurriedly wriggled free from Qiu Wanshuang’s grasp and followed suit, jumping into the field.

The next second, only a ’plop’ was heard as the little one slipped and fell hard, her head striking the sugarcane in front of her.

All the other children were wearing sneakers, only Ji Yunyun had on a pair of light khaki leather shoes. Combined with the rain from the day before, her little legs had failed to stabilize upon jumping, causing her fall.

A sensation of pain quickly spread from her head, and her cries followed suit.

Gu Xiaoran frowned slightly and said helplessly to Song Yuchen, "She’s crying again, why is she so prone to tears!"

Song Yuchen shrugged, "Don’t know."

The little guy didn’t even glance at Ji Yunyun and walked away.

[If Song Yuchen were my son, I’d wake up laughing from my dreams, this kid is just too cool!]

[Children like Ji Yunyun are really annoying, always in such a rush to do things and so purposeful, it really makes them hard to like, no matter how cute they look.]

[The key point is that Song Yuchen is so young, yet he is very decisive and opinionated. If he doesn’t like Ji Yunyun, he just doesn’t, no matter what tricks you pull, he won’t talk to you or pay you any attention, I really love such cool little guys!]

[And when he deals with someone he likes, he’s very gentle, like with Xiao Yiyi, hahaha!]

Seeing Ji Yunyun crying, Yang Yike stood there blankly for a moment, blinked, and then looked at Xu Wanjia, who knew her daughter was kind-hearted and wanted to comfort Ji Yunyun.

But remembering how Ji Yunyun had deliberately knocked Yi Yi to the ground the night before, her heart was heavy, so she picked up her child and walked to the other side.

"We have quite the task today, we need to cut 1,500 pounds of sugarcane, and it’s getting late, let’s hurry up."

Director Yang followed behind mother and daughter, "Yeah, where should we start? I’ve actually done this work before."

Song Yuchen went over to take Ye Zhenzhen’s hand, "Mom, let’s go over there too."

"Okay."

Ye Zhenzhen knew Xiao Chen didn’t like Ji Yunyun, and she didn’t interfere.

Children have their own thoughts, who they like to play with or not is their business, as long as he’s happy, that’s good enough.

Song Jinze was even more so; Xiao Chen’s personality was very similar to his, clear about who he liked and didn’t. He liked little girls, just not the type that Ji Yunyun was.

"I’ll do it later, you sit over there with Xiao Chen and rest."

During the conversation, the man inspected the sharp sickle in his hand, then joked, "I never thought my first time doing field work would be cutting sugarcane."

It was quite unexpected and quite a challenge.

Ye Zhenzhen glanced at him, "President Song, are you underestimating me again?"

"It’s hard work," he said, not wanting to tire her out.

Though he hadn’t done it himself, it was obviously laborious just by looking.

Ye Zhenzhen’s lips curled into a smile, "This is a family task, not just yours. Later, we’ll do it together so we can finish early and go home to rest. If it’s just you, I think..."

Her eyes roamed from his handsome face down, examining him from top to bottom, "I think, you won’t be done even by the second half of the night."

She didn’t look down upon this man, but farm work like this was truly torturous for someone who had never done it before.

Song Jinze: ...

[Incredible, the president’s abilities are actually being questioned, hahaha!]

[No, Sister Zhenzhen is right, cutting sugarcane is really tough, and a pampered CEO like President Song would easily get blisters on his hands.]

[Friends from the South, please step aside, let me enlighten our friends from the North, this is what we call lotus root in the South!]

[Pfft—hold on a sec, we also have this kind of lotus root in the North!]

Song Yuchen watched from the side as Dad was rendered speechless by Mom and couldn’t help but laugh secretly, "Dad, Mom is really amazing, you know. Last time, during the bamboo shoot task, Mom dug up all the shoots on the mountain by herself."

Ye Zhenzhen: ...

Song Yuchen, we don’t chat like this, okay!

Song Jinze merely responded with a light ’oh,’ but to Ye Zhenzhen, it seemed laden with meaning.

She turned her head to look at the man, "You’re laughing!"

The little guy didn’t understand anything, but this jerk actually laughed, and in front of the camera no less!

The man’s dark pupils shifted slightly, his eyes full of doting light, and his thin lips curved slightly, "I’m not laughing, he is."

He pointed to the little guy beside him with his finger.

Song Yuchen hadn’t expected that because of his comment, Mom would start scolding Dad. He quickly covered his mouth and shook his head, "Mom, I’m not laughing now, it was clearly Dad who was laughing."

Ye Zhenzhen snorted lightly, not wanting to deal with that jerk.

The past few days she had been feeling lazy, but now that there was a task at hand, she naturally couldn’t just stand by and watch; she had to do something.

After participating in two variety shows, she had managed to cleanse her online image from being universally blackened to some extent. She couldn’t let it be ruined in this third episode.

Taking her career seriously is the most important!

[I’m all in, I’m all in, the chemistry between President Song and Sister Zhenzhen is so good!]

[Their relationship looks so good, I don’t get it, why do some tabloids say Sister Zhenzhen is XX’s? It’s baffling. Just for some traffic, they are so calculating and disgusting.]

[Let’s not talk about that anymore, it’s all in the past. It was dealt with last night, and there’s none of that stuff today, so let’s not bring it up again!]

[No, I heard that Xiao Chen isn’t President Song’s son, some people at Huanya said that the kid isn’t their child, it might be an adoption...]

[To the person before me, if you put it that way, it makes sense. Does it mean that both President Song and Zhenzhen are in their first marriage?]

[I don’t know about that. Anyway, let’s stop discussing it. Now, Song Yuchen is President Song’s son, that’s all there is to it. Just enjoy the CP, and don’t pry into things we shouldn’t.]

Qiu Wanshuang had been comforting a sobbing Ji Yunyun for quite a while and felt her patience wearing thin.

Looking ahead at the group that had gone far, she felt helpless and somewhat resentful. Her daughter was clearly adorable; why didn’t they like her?

The child had bumped her head and was crying like this, yet neither the adults nor the children came to offer comfort or greet her.

She felt it was an affront to her self-esteem. She, Qiu Wanshuang, was a popular actress in the industry, yet she was neglected in this show.

Looking at the red bump that had formed on her daughter’s forehead, she sighed silently, feeling both heartache and regret.

Why on earth did she bring her husband and daughter to this show!
