Overnight Hit: Vicious Stepmother and Genius Son-Chapter 69 - Rumors

Ye Zhenzhen: …

In her past life, she wouldn’t dare dream of such things, yet after death by transmigration, she had everything.

So, as long as she didn’t divorce Song Jinze, the overbearing CEO, all these visible assets, as the overbearing CEO’s wife, were hers to enjoy, right…

Then why bother working hard to save money when she could just settle into an early retirement lifestyle!

No, no, that’s just wishful thinking; she still had to rely on herself for her livelihood.

She was still young and couldn’t afford to have such a lazy, defeatist attitude; if she didn’t work hard, her character and charm would soon fade, eventually attracting disdain from everyone…

And if by any chance this man one day proposed divorce, the consequences would be dire…

Therefore, earning her own money and spending it was the most reliable strategy. Even if the man gave her some, she could save her own money for a foolproof safeguard in the future.

Actually, it’s not surprising that Ye Zhenzhen was so shocked this time; it was because on the morning she transmigrated, everything was so rushed and hurried that she got straight into the business car arranged by the production crew and naturally didn’t look around her ‘own home’.

As they approached the main hall entrance, Aunt Li greeted them, “Sir, madam, young master, you’re back.”

Then she took their coats, and they changed shoes.

Following Aunt Li was a large white Samoyed, wagging its tail and smiling at Xiao Chen with its tongue out, “Woof~ Woof~”

Having not seen him for days, the dog had missed its little owner terribly.

The little dumpling hadn’t even changed his shoes and ran over to embrace the Samoyed’s head, pressing their heads together, “Watermelon~ did you miss me?”

“Woo~ Mm~” Watermelon affectionately responded to its little owner, expressing its yearning.

Song Jinze didn’t change his shoes but asked Aunt Li, “Has Doctor Liu arrived?”

Aunt Li shook her head: “Not yet, she just called the house, saying if the madam returns, to wait for her a bit, she has to go to the hospital to get some medicine.”

“Mhm,” responded Song Jinze indifferently, and he turned to Ye Zhenzhen, “Doctor Liu will come by in a while to give you an anti-inflammatory injection. Wait for me, and I’ll take you back home for dinner.”

By ‘home’, the man meant going back to the place where his parents and grandfather lived in the Jiangcheng Suburb.

The original host had only visited that place once the day she got her marriage certificate with Song Jinze.

Ye Zhenzhen replied, “Okay.”

“Woof~” Watermelon seemed to suddenly notice Ye Zhenzhen and barked at her, its canine face no longer as cheerful as when it saw Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen patted Watermelon’s head, “Watermelon, don’t be mad at Ye Zhenzhen anymore, I really like her now.”

Ye Zhenzhen: …

Did that mean this little guy had been snitching on her to a dog before?

Just as Song Jin was about to leave, he paused his footsteps and turned back to look at the big one, the small one, and the dog.

He used to spend little time at home and rarely saw scenes like this, which he found rather interesting for a moment.

Ye Zhenzhen smiled slightly, “Watermelon?”

She had just heard Xiao Chen calling it Watermelon.

Watermelon, hearing Ye Zhenzhen call its name, wagged its tail and walked over to her, licking her left hand and gently bumping her leg with its head, “Woof~”

The bark was very gentle.

Xiao Chen clapped his hands happily, “Watermelon, you like Ye Zhenzhen too, don’t you?”

Watermelon wagged its head vigorously, its dog face full of gentle smiles.

Song Jinze’s lips curled up slightly, and he looked softly at Xiao Chen, “Xiao Chen, have fun at home, Daddy will be back soon.”

“Alrighty! Bye-bye, Daddy. Be careful on the road.”

“Okay.”

Song Jinze left with Secretary Zhang.

“Watermelon, let’s go play!” Xiao Chen changed his shoes and took the dog to play in the sunroom.

Ye Zhenzhen entered the living room and sat down on the sofa, taking off her outer jacket to reveal her arms; only then did Aunt Li notice that the lady of the house had injured her right arm.

She hurried over to ask with concern, but Ye Zhenzhen simply said it was nothing much.

After that, Aunt Li served her tea and snacks, preparing fruits and the like.

But shortly after, Doctor Liu came over, asked about the injury, gave her an anti-inflammatory injection, and then left; changing bandages and removing stitches were trivial matters for Aunt Li.

Ye Zhenzhen’s injury wasn’t very serious, and there was no need to have a doctor stay there the whole time.

Whether it was because she hadn’t rested well at the hospital last evening, or because she was exhausted from mountain climbing the past two days, Ye Zhenzhen felt sleepy all day today.

Especially since the living room sofa was so comfortable; she lay there for a while and soon felt drowsy…

Huanya Group

As soon as Song Jinze returned to the company, he started a meeting. During the meeting, the expressions on the faces of the company’s executives were more or less unusual.

At lunchtime, every executive received a box of oranges, and everyone was curious what the deal was with the sudden distribution of oranges.

The CEO’s secretary’s office explained it was specially instructed by the CEO—a benefit for everyone in celebration of the company’s anniversary.

The administrative assistant, who loved gossip, was on Weibo during lunch in the pantry and noticed that the packaging of these oranges was exactly the same as the ones Ye Zhenzhen was selling on a variety show.

In just a few short hours, everyone was guessing whether the CEO, who had left on a business trip, was wooed by Ye Zhenzhen, the little celebrity?

So was it out of his way to buy these oranges to give to them as a show of support?

Soon someone said, “Ye Zhenzhen is just a nobody in the entertainment industry; would the CEO take a liking to her?”

Gossip Employee No.1: “Ye Zhenzhen is really pretty, you know, I’ve seen her, and she looks really nice!”

Gossip Employee No.2: “Looking good isn’t enough, our CEO is a married man, and that Ye Zhenzhen is said to be married too. Isn’t this problematic?”

Gossip Employee No.3: “Half a year ago, the company was buzzing about the CEO getting married, and I still don’t know who the CEO’s wife is. Also, supposedly the CEO had a son after getting married—have you seen him?”

Everyone shook their heads: “Haven’t seen him.”

It wasn’t until Song Jinze appeared in the afternoon with such a cute band-aid on his forehead, still conducting the meeting in the conference room with composure, that those executives who had listened to the rumors and joined in the guessing felt a pang of doubt inside;

Could it be that the normally workaholic CEO had taken his wife and child with him on the business trip?

And it wasn’t that he had been charmed by a little star…
