Overnight Hit: Vicious Stepmother and Genius Son-Chapter 353 - 253 Slapping Han Jiangxue’s Face

The banquet tonight was held on the first floor, and just behind the hall was the hotel’s garden. Ye Zhenzhen had looked around outside the hall but still couldn’t find the child, so she headed towards the garden outside.

Song Jinze grabbed her, "Don’t go out, it’s very cold outside, you stay inside, I’ll take people to search."

Ye Zhenzhen was anxious, Song Jinze even more so.

The weather in Jiangcheng had already entered the cold winter, and the temperature outside at night had fallen below zero. Ye Zhenzhen was wearing a thin evening gown, and he wouldn’t allow her to go out like that.

"But..." Ye Zhenzhen said, though her feet didn’t stop moving.

It was very cold, but she was even more worried about Xiao Chen. Compared to Xiao Chen, what was cold?

"No more ’buts.’ Just wait here. What if Xiao Chen comes back from playing somewhere, looking for you? This is Huanya Hotel; there are surveillance cameras and bodyguards. Nothing will happen; rest assured."

Ye Zhenzhen looked at the man’s handsome face, his deep and steady voice somewhat eased her incredibly tense emotions, she believed him.

"Okay, then I’ll search inside, you search outside."

Song Jinze’s eyes furrowed slightly, "Mhm, you be careful."

After Song Jinze left, Ye Zhenzhen began to search throughout the hotel...

An Xi and Gu Liangjun caught up, and seeing Song Jinze going to the garden, Gu Liangjun naturally hurried to follow. An Xi, like Ye Zhenzhen, stayed inside to look for Gu Xiaoran...

Song Jinze went out of the hotel, searching while calling the hotel manager, instructing someone to check all the hotel’s surveillance, and to have all the entrance doors sealed and mobilize all security personnel to search for the child.

After hanging up the phone, he didn’t hesitate to call the police, just in case. What if the child had been taken away and wasn’t in the hotel anymore?

After the emergency call ended, he then picked up a call from Secretary Zhang who had just come back;

"President, there’s been a problem..."

...

Ye Zhenzhen and An Xi split up to search inside the hotel.

While searching, Ye Zhenzhen thought of Da Mi, calling twice in a row with no answer from the other side, and then she sent a WeChat message:

[Emergency situation, Song Yuchen is missing. Can you help check the surveillance?]

Ye Zhenzhen’s previous WeChat message to Da Mi was to arrange a meeting place, to which he hadn’t replied.

After she put away her phone, as she passed by another banquet hall on the first floor, a very familiar female voice came from inside;

"I told you to deal with Ye Zhenzhen, who asked you to take a child?"

Ye Zhenzhen, already frantic, instantly went pale. So Xiao Chen’s disappearance had something to do with her...

She raised her hand and pushed the door open without hesitation.

Because Chenguang’s charity dinner was held in the largest banquet hall on the first floor of Huanya Hotel, the other three smaller banquet halls were unoccupied and unlocked.

At that moment, in the pitch-dark banquet hall, the person with the phone was startled into panic by the door being pushed open...

Ye Zhenzhen looked coldly at the woman illuminated by the dim light of the mobile phone, her phoenix eyes filled with chill, "Han Jiangxue, where is my son?"

Han Jiangxue stood by the doorway, her expression a mix of jealousy and guilt as she withdrew her hand, "I don’t know what you’re talking about. How would I know where your son is?"

Just then she hadn’t found Su Jin, nor Shen Zhaonan and Shen Yibo, so she came to this temporarily unoccupied banquet hall on another side of the first floor to make a call to Su Jin.

Unexpectedly, that idiot Su Jin had taken Song Yuchen instead of capturing Ye Zhenzhen. Song Yuchen was that man’s son...

"Is that so?" Ye Zhenzhen took steps towards Han Jiangxue, her voice cold and fierce, "Looking for someone to deal with me?"

In the dark hall, Han Jiangxue’s pupils dilated, staring at Ye Zhenzhen’s blurry and misty face, she continued to argue, "What are you talking about? I don’t understand."

She tried to leave but was forcefully pulled back by Ye Zhenzhen and pushed to the ground.

"Ah~" Han Jiangxue cried out in pain.

Immediately afterwards, a loud "slap!" was heard as her face received a solid smack.

"Ah—! Ye Zhenzhen, go find your own missing son, what gives you the right to hit me?" Already full of loathing for Ye Zhenzhen, Han Jiangxue spoke as her hand was already bracing against the carpet, preparing to rise and fight back.

The slap she had just received on her face, she was determined to return it twofold!

However, Ye Zhenzhen anticipated her movements, lifting her leg and planting it firmly on Han Jiangxue’s back, rendering her immobile for the moment.

The heel of the high-heeled shoe dug into the upper part of Han Jiangxue’s back, poking directly at her spine and causing her to scream in agony, "Ye Zhenzhen, you bitch, you...

Ah—!"

Ye Zhenzhen exerted more force under her foot, her voice icy cold, "Where is Song Yuchen?"

"Hahaha~" Han Jiangxue suddenly laughed hysterically, "Ye Zhenzhen, are you anxious right now? You’ve lost that man’s son, what if something happens to the child, are you going to be dumped, huh?

Hahaha!"

Seeing how nervous Ye Zhenzhen was about Song Yuchen, Han Jiangxue suddenly felt that Su Jin was not so stupid after all, at least capable of making Ye Zhenzhen so frantic. If something happened to the child, Ye Zhenzhen naturally wouldn’t be able to escape responsibility, and that man would definitely not forgive her...

Ye Zhenzhen was already frantic, and now, hearing Han Jiangxue’s venomous and arrogant ravings, she felt her blood boiling, her anger surging. Lifting her dress, she straddled Han Jiangxue’s back so she couldn’t move.

Then, with one hand, she grabbed Han Jiangxue’s hair, and with the other, she took her purse and started beating Han Jiangxue on the head viciously.

With each hit, Han Jiangxue screamed in pain.

"Ye Zhenzhen, you... you wretched woman, lunatic, just you wait... next time, don’t let me catch the chance, I... will kill you sooner or later!"

In the dim light, Ye Zhenzhen’s phoenix eyes darkened as she raised her arm, and her solid purse smashed down on Han Jiangxue’s head once again.

"You narrow-minded and malicious woman, you’ve repeatedly sent people to attack me and stirred up trouble behind my back, I haven’t settled these scores with you yet, and now you want to kill me?

Fine, before you kill me, I’ll kill you first!"

Han Jiangxue felt her head numb from the blows, but she still wanted to spite Ye Zhenzhen, "Hahaha, Ye Zhenzhen, you... kill me, and you’ll never find your stepson again, hahaha!"

"Whether I find him or not is my own ability, but tonight, I definitely won’t let you off easily. Someone like you doesn’t deserve to be a person, much less a mother. You have no true heart for a lovely child like Shen Yibo, how can I expect you to tell me where Xiao Chen is?

Since you won’t speak, then don’t blame me for not being nice. Old grudges and new, I’ll settle them all with you tonight..."

Ye Zhenzhen hit Han Jiangxue on the head several more times, and feeling she was almost done, stopped.

If she continued and something happened, it wouldn’t look good for her.

ps:

Since my darlings have read up to here, I still want to say a few words;

Don’t ask why, after the female protagonist transmigrated into the book, the original female lead turned bad?

Or why must there be a vilification of so and so, or dumbing down of so and so?

First, because this is a novel, and since it’s after the transmigration, of course, it’s written from the first-person perspective of the female lead, Ye Zhenzhen. Since the character has changed, the plot will naturally take a drastic turn.

As they say, good-hearted people naturally attract good fortune.

Second, Ye Zhenzhen in the original book was the vicious female antagonist. Now that the vicious female antagonist is no longer vicious, Han Jiangxue, who used to have everything go her way, is now facing constant setbacks. As the magnetic field changes, the weaknesses of human nature will inevitably be exposed.

Everyone has their own selfish desires. There’s no absolute good or bad, it’s just that the novel dramatically amplifies these character flaws,

Just read it for fun, have a laugh, and if you find you can’t continue, I can’t help it. It’s best just to leave politely.

As a new author, my writing isn’t perfect, so I hope my dear readers can be forgiving!

(Also, one more Chapter is on the way. For those who can’t wait, you can read it tomorrow!)
