Overnight Hit: Vicious Stepmother and Genius Son
Chapter 501 Misunderstanding

Chapter 501: Chapter 501 Misunderstanding

On the way to the airport, Song Jinze had been dialing Ye Zhenzhen’s phone, but no one picked up the whole time.

Secretary Zhang glanced at his own CEO through the rearview mirror and saw the grim look on his face, then he finally spoke up about the online gossip that appeared last night regarding Song Jinze and Lu Sangning dining together.

The way Lu Sangning butted into the call between the CEO and his wife just now was utterly shameless.

Lu Sangning is just a scheming little vixen, too calculating.

The wife must be angry by now, so she’s not answering the CEO’s calls.

Secretary Zhang couldn’t help speculating that the trending topic from last night was probably orchestrated by Lu Sangning herself, just to drive a wedge between the CEO and his wife.

Song Jinze’s eyes narrowed as he listened to Secretary Zhang’s recap, his voice suddenly as cold as ice, "Where were you last night?"

Secretary Zhang swallowed nervously and hesitated, "Last night..."

He was already regretting; why did he take a chance last night? He should have found an opportunity to report to the CEO!

"CEO, I apologize, it’s my fault."

Now that the incident had occurred, Secretary Zhang had no inclination to explain or defend himself further. Judging by how angry the wife was now, he guessed she must have seen last night’s trending search.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t be ignoring the CEO just because of a single sentence from Lu Sangning.

"Secretary Zhang, it seems you really want a change of position, or should I say, a change of workplace?"

The driver, Xiao Li, who was at the wheel, couldn’t help but speed up after hearing the CEO’s chilling voice, trying to reduce the time it would take to reach the airport as much as possible.

Fortunately, the road wasn’t too busy at that time, with no traffic jams.

Otherwise, he worried that the CEO, in a fit of anger, might dismiss him too.

Thinking of this, Xiao Li subtly cast an ’I hope you survive this’ glance at Secretary Zhang.

"No, no, CEO, please don’t think like that, I have a plan for damage control. Please don’t be angry just yet. If the misunderstanding between you and your wife doesn’t get resolved today, I will resign tomorrow."

Song Jinze scoffed coldly, "Do you think your resignation will cool my wife’s anger?"

Secretary Zhang: ...

He didn’t want to resign; this misunderstanding had to be cleared up tonight.

"CEO, please trust my ability!"

...

Baisheng Media.

After a whole morning of earnest discussion by the cast and crew, Xia Zhi’s script had been finalized.

At lunchtime, Fu Shinuan spent a small fortune treating the entire cast and crew to lunch, choosing the Huanya Grand Hotel for the catered meals.

Xiao Yi looked at the delicately arranged meals in the food container and raised the corner of his mouth in a mocking sneer, "Wow, Xiao Nuan is being generous today, treating everyone to boxed lunches?"

Fu Shinuan had been targeting Ye Zhenzhen all morning regarding the script; he had noticed it early on.

Now, at noon, with this display, and in front of Ye Zhenzhen, ordering the boxed lunches from Huanya Hotel, the intention was clear for everyone to see.

He thought that, except for Song Jinze himself, everyone else should be aware of last night’s insignificant gossip between Song Jinze and Lu Sangning.

"When have I ever not been generous? Ask anyone present, as a person from Baisheng Media, Fu Shinuan has never been stingy."

Xiao Yi pushed the boxed meal aside, "Too bad, I’m not hungry right now."

Fu Shinuan didn’t care about Xiao Yi’s attitude and smiled again towards Ye Zhenzhen, "I just had a meal at this hotel once before and found the taste to be very good. Thinking that we were about to start work, I wanted everyone to try it too.

Logically speaking, this should be Sister Zhenzhen’s family business, so she should be the one treating us, shouldn’t she?"
