Overnight Hit: Vicious Stepmother and Genius Son-Chapter 545 - 542

Xiao Chen repeated to his father, word for word, the conversation he had overheard unintentionally yesterday morning.

"Dad, is that bad woman really my biological mother? If she is, will you leave Ye Zhenzhen and me behind and be with her?"

Last night, Ye Zhenzhen claimed she was his biological mother, which he knew was just to soothe him; Ye Zhenzhen also said she wouldn’t leave him, but he was still worried.

He needed to hear his father’s answer with his own ears.

Song Jinze’s brows furrowed slightly, his expression turning stern inadvertently, "Apart from Ye Zhenzhen, I have no entanglements with any other woman, and, as for that person, she’s not your biological mother. Regarding what you’ve mentioned, the issue starts with me and I will deal with it.

As for everything else, you don’t need to worry, I won’t abandon you or your mother."

Song Yuchen’s dark, round eyes filled with surprise as he looked at Song Jinze excitedly, "Dad, you’re so cool~"

"When I grow up, I want to be a man just like you!"

Song Jinze’s thin lips curled slightly, and his stern face softened, "Alright, go wash your hands and have breakfast. Don’t bother your mother anymore, let her sleep a little longer."

Xiao Chen chuckled softly, then nodded, "Okay."

Dad must have known that it was him at the bedroom door just now.

...

After waking up, Ye Zhenzhen was served red sugar bird’s nest soup by Aunt Li in her bedroom. She drank the soup and after getting ready briefly, her home beautician arrived as well.

When she finished her treatment and came to the living room, she saw Xiao Chen and Watermelon playing in the yard through the French windows.

And Song Jinze had not returned from going out.

When he left, she was not yet awake. He had sent her a message, saying he would be back for lunch.

Ye Zhenzhen went out to the yard, where Watermelon saw her first and scampered over to hum and nudge for a head pat.

She squatted down, stroking Watermelon’s fluffy white head, and Xiao Chen came running over as well.

"Mom, did you have a good rest?"

"Yes, I’ve rested well. Aunt Li told me that you didn’t eat much this morning. Are you hungry now?"

"Not really hungry. Did you have breakfast?"

The little guy’s tender face shone brightly under the sunlight, milky and plump like a little sticky rice ball, irresistibly cute and prompting a desire to plant a kiss on his cheek.

Ye Zhenzhen reached out to embrace the little milk dumpling in her arms and kissed his pink little cheek right away.

"I’ve had breakfast. The weather is wonderful today. How about Mommy takes you out to play?"

After all, it was just her and Xiao Chen at home now. It was rare to have a free weekend, so she wanted to spend it well with the little one.

Song Yuchen’s lustrous eyes twinkled, feeling the sunlight warm his little ears, a mix of shyness and happiness as he nodded eagerly, "Okay."

"What would you like to eat for lunch? Shall Mommy take you out to eat and then maybe go to an amusement park and have fun?"

Song Yuchen thought for a moment, "I don’t really want to go to an amusement park..."

His mom was not feeling well, and it would be too tiring for her to accompany him to an amusement park. He didn’t want his mom to get tired.

"Then where does Xiao Chen want to go?"

"Is it okay to go to a bookstore? I’ve read all the storybooks in my room and would like to buy some different ones to read."

This response pleased Ye Zhenzhen greatly; her son was too adorable, even asking to go to the bookstore on his own.

"Of course, that’s no problem."

Ye Zhenzhen lifted the little one into her arms, her beautiful phoenix eyes filled with doting laughter as she embraced him and kissed his cuddly little face again.

So utterly adorable.

How could there be such a creamy, cute little guy? She loved him so much.

Ye Zhenzhen’s eyes were beaming with joy, and Watermelon, her son walking by her side, became even more jubilant.

"Mom, are we going to take Dad with us? I want to eat fried chicken today, but Dad won’t let me."

If he could, he’d rather not take his dad with them. When he went out with Mom, she would buy him anything he wanted to eat, and although he wasn’t allowed to have too much, he could taste every kind.

Even so, he felt very satisfied.

It was better than going out with Dad, who wouldn’t let him eat this or drink that. It was a bad experience.

"Don’t want to take Dad with you?"

Song Yuchen nodded, "Yeah, I just want to be with Mom."

"Sure, your dad hasn’t come home yet. I’ll take you out now, and he won’t even know."

The little guy was thrilled, "Hehe, then let’s hurry up and go!"

"Okay~"

Ye Zhenzhen drove the car herself with Xiao Chen, without bringing a driver. Both wore dark-colored short down jackets, fully armed with hats and masks, giving off a vibe akin to a parent-child outfit at first glance.

With the downtown area bustling on weekends, Ye Zhenzhen and Xiao Chen didn’t attract any attention as they walked through the crowd.

Before she even entered the fried chicken restaurant, she received a phone call from Song Jinze.

"What’s up?" Ye Zhenzhen answered the call.

Just arriving home, Song Jinze called after Aunt Li told him that the mother and son had gone out.

"You guys went out?"

Song Yuchen looked up at Ye Zhenzhen with a little head tilt and waved his hand in front of her, signaling desperately not to tell Dad they were out to eat fried chicken.

Ye Zhenzhen pinched the little guy’s cheek lightly and replied, "Yeah, we’re out. Dong Yan invited me to dinner tonight, so I took Xiao Chen out for a stroll, to buy a few books; we’ll head home after dinner. You go ahead with your stuff, don’t worry about us."

"You..." 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

Song Jinze looked at the hung-up phone, his eyebrows slightly raised in a helpless resignation.

He has a new WeChat message on his phone, the restaurant address sent by Tang Tianyou.

...

In the high-end restaurant reserved for their use, Cheng Shaoqing took the cigarette Tang Tianyou passed him and tapped it on the table, "Don’t light it, Mrs. Song and her little son are coming over, it’s not good if they smell the smoke."

Tang Tianyou glanced at him, a smile playing on his lips, "You sure are thoughtful. Did you get that thing I asked you to find for me last time?"

"Got it, but I can’t give it to you; Jinze wanted it."

Tang Tianyou was stunned, "What the hell do you mean? I’ve been asking you for at least six months, right?"

"What’s half a year got to do with it? You’re just a single dog, you don’t deserve it."

Tang Tianyou, "Are you mocking me?"

"Isn’t that obvious, President Tang? Why bother asking such a humiliating question?"

Tang Tianyou was enraged now, "I’m going to make a phone call this minute and blacklist Fu Shinuan."

Hearing the name Fu Shinuan, Cheng Shaoqing’s lips twisted into an indifferent, wicked smile, "Sure, I’d love that."

Had it not been for Fu Shinuan coming back to him these past few days, he would have almost forgotten that he once asked Tang Tianyou to look out for this person.

"Oh~" Tang Tianyou gave Cheng Shaoqing a meaningful look, "I was mistaken. Fu Shinuan is just cannon fodder to deal with the third young miss of the Qin Family. Then I’ll just call Qin Yan’s brother right now. We’ve got a lot of white truffles flown in from Italy this time; might as well...

Qin Yan seems to have returned to the country too. I’ll invite both siblings to come taste it."

Cheng Shaoqing looked at Tang Tianyou’s mischievously gleeful expression and rolled his eyes, "You just know how to bully me. If you have the guts, go find Song Jinze."

From outside, the man’s cold voice rang out, "Looking for me for what?"
