Chapter 75: Chapter 75: Is the Door Locked from the Inside?
Chapter 75 -75: Is the Door Locked from the Inside?
Ye Zhenzhen’s mind raced, she absolutely couldn’t afford to come out on the bottom in this situation.
“Since the shrimp were peeled, the spicy factor was pretty much gone, having a little bit shouldn’t do much, I think. However, since President Song is so eager to take credit, then I’ll just have to thank President Song for his ‘special’ concern for me, ha!
But you framing others and spitting venom always turns out right, right? It was clearly you who hurt yourself, yet you’re pinning the blame on me.”
As Ye Zhenzhen spoke, she kept observing the expressions on the man’s face across from her, not waiting for him to respond, she said directly: “Oh, forget it, forget it, let’s just say you were covering for me just now, consider it as me helping you out, and you don’t need to thank me.
But I must say, I’m actually quite magnanimous, I don’t hold grudges, especially not ‘taking credit’!”
Song Jinze: ……
He almost couldn’t catch his breath, this woman really was…
Sharp-tongued!
Song Jinze brought a hand to his forehead, turning his head to look out the window, no longer paying attention to Ye Zhenzhen.
A victorious smile flickered through Ye Zhenzhen’s eyes, hmmph, men!
With such little fighting ability, they still dare to pick fights?
…
After returning home, Ye Zhenzhen changed her shoes and headed straight for the master bedroom upstairs. As soon as she entered, she locked the door from the inside.
Tonight would mark her first night in this house, and that man just happened to be at home…
Though he had never touched her body, that was because he barely spent any time at home.
Even when he was home, he would only come into the bedroom late at night, he had the audacity to disturb others, huh!
The man being home so early today meant that she had to lock the door.
They were both adults, legally married at that, if something were to really happen, the thought still made her feel a bit awkward and was unacceptable…
At the very least, she was not mentally prepared for it yet!
On the other hand, as soon as Song Jinze got home, he received a work email from Secretary Zhang.
He went straight to the study to tend to his work, and without realizing it, the time flew by until the early hours of the morning when he finally closed his laptop, ready to shower and rest.
However, when he reached the door to the master bedroom, he found it wouldn’t open!
Song Jinze’s handsome face darkened slightly, he tried the door again, and came to a conclusion—the door was locked from the inside by Ye Zhenzhen.
He furrowed his brows and turned towards the guest bedroom instead.
This woman was really getting out of hand!
…
Early the next morning, Ye Zhenzhen stretched leisurely on her soft, large bed; indeed, the beds of the wealthy were exceedingly comfortable.
Looking at the empty space beside her, the corners of Ye Zhenzhen’s mouth couldn’t help but curl into a smile; locking the door was the right move.
Having had a good sleep, her mood naturally wouldn’t be bad.
She quickly washed up and went downstairs, where the housekeeper had breakfast ready on the table.
It was 9:12 AM, and Song Jinze had already left for the day.
As Ye Zhenzhen was about to leave, Aunt Li approached and asked when she would be back as there was still an anti-inflammatory injection scheduled for today.
Recalling that Liu Rui had said the audition was in the afternoon, Ye Zhenzhen told Aunt Li she would be back after finishing up in the afternoon.
She would contact Doctor Liu to come over for the injection when she returned.
When Ye Zhenzhen left the house, she was driven by the Song family’s chauffeur; ever since she married Song Jinze, she had a dedicated driver for her outings.
…
Yesterday, after Han Jiangxue returned home with Shen Yibo, Shen Yibo still did not interact with Han Jiangxue.
Once home, Shen Yibo called his father and, finding out that his dad would return very late, he became even more unhappy.
Han Jiangxue, thinking about the movie they had to shoot and needing to maintain a good relationship with Shen Yibo, coaxed him into not having dinner at home and took him out for fried chicken and burgers instead.
She even let the little guy drink his most-desired cola.
Han Jiangxue and Tang Ying were very cautious; they never ate fried chicken and such inside the restaurants when with Shen Yibo.
They always packed it to eat in the car.

For the little foodie Shen Yibo, it didn’t matter where he ate, as long as the food was tasty.
There wasn’t a problem that couldn’t be solved by one meal.
If one meal wasn’t enough, then two it would be.
After finishing the fried chicken, Han Jiangxue finally got out of the car with Shen Yibo and took him shopping for clothes in the mall, and they even went to the arcade for a round of games.
She specifically chose crowded places, afraid that the netizens wouldn’t notice her, Han Jiangxue, constantly being with the child and maintaining a great relationship with her stepson.
That evening, Tang Ying spent a lot of money to put Han Jiangxue on the trending searches, even customizing press releases for her, and overnight online comments were all praising Han Jiangxue.
[Oh my, our Xiao Xue is too great, isn’t she? Knowing it’s cold, she came back to Jiangcheng and immediately took Little Yi to buy clothes!]
[Sigh, this is just routine for her, our Xiao Xue’s kindness to the kids is seen in daily life.]
[Hahaha, exactly, not like some stepmothers, who only know how to perform on shows, and are invisible in their daily lives.]
[So you see, they only act when there are cameras around. Without cameras, who knows what they do to the children behind the scenes.]
Han Jiangxue, wholly convinced that the online praises of Ye Zhenzhen were bought with a high price, learned her lesson this time. She didn’t just pay cyber soldiers to praise herself, she also spent extra to have trolls bash Ye Zhenzhen.
On Weibo, wherever praises of Han Jiangxue appeared, inevitably the “evil stepmother” Ye Zhenzhen was dragged out for comparison.
Overnight, online public opinions polarized, with Ye Zhenzhen’s variety show fans unable to stand by and starting to defend her on Weibo;
[Trolls, you really have gone too far. Do we not know what kind of person Zhenzhen is after she streamed live for several days?]
[Exactly, our Zhenzhen is not one to use kids for marketing, she’s low-key!]
[Speaking of which, I suddenly thought of someone who even got the child’s medicine wrong, causing the kid to have diarrhea!]
[There’s a saying that’s true, the public’s eyes are clear, what’s the use of good surface work?]
And just this morning, Han Jiangxue still hadn’t forgotten to market her image of a wealthy lady, coaxing Shen Zhaonan, who was busy till late last night, to go out and play golf on a Saturday morning.
Shen Yibo was also coaxed out of bed with chocolate.
This morning, the internet was again full of retouched photos of Han Jiangxue’s family going out to play sports on the weekend.
Press releases and trending searches were all boasting about how extremely happy Han Jiangxue was, with a tall and a small handsome guy accompanying her, the wealthy lady’s life is truly good, their weekend sports environment is different from ordinary people’s…
When Ye Zhenzhen sat in the car scrolling through Weibo on her phone and saw these, the corners of her lips curled disdainfully: Han Jiangxue is no more than this after all!
Playing such cliched tricks, those are the plays she, Ye Zhenzhen, discarded as unwanted.
What’s the use of such trending hype?
The key is still to have real strength, no matter how well you perform on the surface with your stepchild, they also have to genuinely like you.
