Overnight Hit: Vicious Stepmother and Genius Son
Chapter 86: Who Looks Worthless?

Chapter 86: Chapter 86: Who Looks Worthless?

After a few seconds, Ye Zhenzhen finally caught on.

Did this man mean he thought she forgot the password to that black card from before, and now without money, she had to desperately work to earn money even though she was injured?

"Thank you, but I don’t need that card, and I need this one even less."

Though she had been transported to this world and became Mrs. Song, it seemed she could indeed sit back and enjoy an extravagant lifestyle like a wealthy lady.

And indeed, on the day she arrived, she had fantasized about just giving up and retiring...

But upon further reflection, one has to rely on themselves to get by in life; as long as one is alive, one needs to have dreams.

She couldn’t just rely on a man. No matter how rich he might be, his wealth wouldn’t necessarily become hers if something unexpected happened.

Moreover, Ye Zhenzhen was naturally not someone who liked to give up; she had her own goals, and she could earn her own living.

Song Jinze’s lips curled up slightly. If it weren’t for his recent understanding of this woman, he might have really thought she was deliberately playing mind games with him.

"This money can also be considered your own earnings since it was through you that I was able to sign with Cheng Zheng so smoothly and even got a great deal. Plus, you’re injured. It’s only right and reasonable for you to accept this card; it’s what you deserve."

Song Jinze thought that by saying this, the woman would surely accept the card.

Ye Zhenzhen furrowed her brow, her heart suddenly clear. So that’s why this man suddenly started playing the warm card with her—it was because of a guilty conscience!

"Ye Zhenzhen!"

Ye Zhenzhen turned around and saw Song Yuchen leaning his small head at the door of the study. She hadn’t closed the door when she had followed Song Jinze in.

The little guy walked in with his short legs, snatched the card from his father’s hand and stuffed it into Ye Zhenzhen’s. "Ye Zhenzhen, just take the money my daddy is giving you. You’re his wife, and all the money he earns in the future will be yours."

After a thought, the little one tilted his head up and added, "Hehe~ Mommy, with you being so rich, you’ll definitely spend it on me, right?"

"Tsk~" Ye Zhenzhen was amused by the little bun’s words and squatted down to laugh, "Of course, who else am I but your mommy!"

Song Jinze watched the affectionate interaction between the two, and a gentle, soft smile inadvertently appeared at the corner of his mouth.

The originally dark and somewhat cold study seemed to warm up at that moment...

Song Yuchen, remembering why he had come looking for Ye Zhenzhen, said cheerfully, "Mommy, Doctor Liu is here. I’ll go with you to get your injection."

"Okay."

Hand in hand, the two of them left the study.

Ye Zhenzhen continued to receive her injection sitting on the living room sofa that afternoon, with Xiao Chen and Watermelon by her side.

Seeing Xiao Chen, Ye Zhenzhen was reminded that she had yet to handle her own important business.

She needed to find a way to contact Xiao Yi as soon as possible.

Ye Zhenzhen sent a WeChat message directly to Liu Rui:

Ye Zhenzhen: [Do you know Xiao Yi’s agent? I want to meet him. Xiao Chen wants to see Xiao Yi, and I promised him before I went on the variety show. Could you help me arrange a meeting for tomorrow?]

Liu Rui replied promptly, [??? Xiao Yi has already @’ed you on Weibo, and you still come to me for contact?]

Liu Rui: [I wanted to ask you just now, when did you meet Xiao Yi? He’s such a cold person, why would he help you in the livestream and on Weibo?]

Ye Zhenzhen was stunned by Liu Rui’s barrage of WeChat messages. Did the original owner really know Xiao Yi, and it’s just that her current memory card has a BUG?

She didn’t reply to Liu Rui directly but instead checked Xiao Yi’s Weibo, and sure enough, he had indeed @’ed her.

And that message was even pinned to the top!

The original had been frequently attacked by haters and had long since blocked all those comments and messages on Weibo...

Ye Zhenzhen felt that was a good approach, as she’d done the same in the past.

Blocking out the chaos of Weibo messages and such, only logging in when she felt like it or needed to post for business purposes.

Ye Zhenzhen once again checked her phone contacts and WeChat but still couldn’t find Xiao Yi’s contact information.

So did she know him or not?

Holding her phone, Ye Zhenzhen spaced out, and Xiao Chen asked from beside her, "Mommy, what are you thinking about?"

"I’m thinking about how to take you out to play tomorrow!"

Not wanting to ponder any longer whether she knew him or not, Ye Zhenzhen picked up her phone to continue replying to Liu Rui’s WeChat:

[I don’t know, I wasn’t paying attention to this stuff while browsing Weibo. You directly contact Xiao Yi’s agent for me, see if he has time tomorrow.]

Liu Rui: [Okay, I’ll contact them right away.]

This couch almost seemed to have a hypnotic effect. As soon as Ye Zhenzhen put down her phone, she began to feel drowsy and gradually drifted off to sleep...

Xiao Chen and Watermelon also imitated Ye Zhenzhen and lay down on the couch to sleep. When Song Jinze came downstairs, what he saw was a big one, a small one, plus Watermelon, all asleep on the couch.

He fetched a blanket and covered them.

Standing not far away, Aunt Li couldn’t help but smile at the scene. Such a warm sight was a first in this house...

...

When Feige, Xiao Yi’s agent, received Liu Rui’s call, Xiao Yi was right beside her.

After finding out that Ye Zhenzhen wanted to meet Xiao Yi tomorrow to get an autographed photo, Xiao Yi snatched the phone away, "Okay, no problem, whatever time Ye Zhenzhen says."

Liu Rui took the phone away from her ear to check the contact name. It was Feige, no mistake.

The voice was indeed Xiao Yi’s, but she still felt uncertain; Best Actor Xiao’s aloofness was well-known in the industry.

The way he spoke as if he wasn’t worth much made Liu Rui doubt, "Are you Best Actor Xiao?"

Xiao Yi: "It’s me. Once the time is set, send Feige a message."

After saying that, he hung up.

Liu Rui: That sounded more like him.

Xiao Yi returned the phone to Feige, "Book a flight ticket. I’m going back to Jiangcheng tonight."

Feige: ...

He leaned in close to Xiao Yi and whispered, "Brother Yi, since when have you and Ye Zhenzhen gotten close? You know she’s a married woman, right?"

Xiao Yi glanced at Feige sideways, "Are you really my agent? Can’t you speak with a bit more professionalism? What do you mean by ’gotten close’? We’re friends, really just friends."

Feige complained, "If you’re friends, why didn’t she contact you directly, having to go through an agent instead?"

Xiao Yi smirked, "She knows to avoid suspicion. Don’t just stand there, hurry up and book the flight."

Feige pursed his lips, "Those oranges you bought have arrived. What are you going to do with them?"

Over 600 boxes of oranges, a full truckload!

If they were just ordinary friends, Feige wouldn’t believe it for a second.

Xiao Yi stood up, his tone light, "Find a few people from the crew, have them take it down, and distribute it to everyone."

Feige frowned tightly as he watched Xiao Yi rise and leave. He couldn’t help sighing;

Xiao Yi had been with him for so many years. There had been a few rumors, but he never really connected with any celebrity. And now, the one time he took the initiative, it had to be with a married woman.

Last time, she brought her son to a variety show and he wanted to join in on the fun, causing a huge commotion...

Now he’s booking a flight ticket to go see her again. The thought alone was giving Feige a headache!
