Overnight Hit: Vicious Stepmother and Genius Son

Chapter 6: Participation is Key



Han Jiangxue brought Shen Yibo to a haystack at the village entrance. The cameraman thought that the child needed to relieve himself, so he stopped following and waited not far away.

Since there was no one around, Han Jiangxue lowered her voice and said to Shen Yibo, "Yibo, you have to hand over these snacks."

Shen Yibo was a little frightened by Han Jiangxue's serious expression, but he still didn't want to hand over the snacks.

"Mommy, I really don't want to give the snacks to that auntie."

What if Auntie finished all his precious snacks?

"Shen Yibo, listen to me! If you don't hand over your snacks today, I won't buy you anything good in the future."

Since the soft approach did not work, Han Jiangxue could only resort to force. Today was the longest time she had been alone with her stepson. She had no other choice but to communicate with him like this.

Shen Yibo's eyes flashed with panic, "You're not going to buy me anything?"

"Yes, I won't buy anything. I won't buy the chocolate, ice cream, burgers, and cake that you want to eat because you didn't listen to Mommy today!"

At this moment, Shen Yibo felt as if the world had really collapsed. He immediately started wailing, "Mommy! You can't do this! I want to eat delicious food!"

His father had said that he wasn't allowed to eat hamburgers and fried chicken, so only his mother had secretly bought them for him. Recalling how his mother was saying that she wasn't going to buy them anymore, Shen Yibo cried even harder.

"Don't cry!"

Han Jiangxue was unmoved by the child's crying. She crossed her arms and said, "Are you going to listen to me? As long as you are, I'll buy you anything."

Shen Yibo's chubby little face was covered in tears. He nodded with difficulty, "I'll listen."

"Okay, then don't cry anymore. Wipe your tears away and hand over the snacks obediently when we go out later. You have to listen to everything Mommy says. Can you do that?"

Shen Yibo nodded again, "Okay."

Han Jiangxue heaved a sigh of relief after she finally managed to coax Shen Yibo. She then returned to the filming location with the child.

Shen Yibo reluctantly handed over all the snacks he had brought. He had brought a lot of food, including milk candy, lollipops, cakes, biscuits, meat jerky, beef cubes, and others.

Seeing Xiao Wen pack up everything, Shen Yibo's chubby face was filled with unhappiness.

[Poor little darling, he can't eat snacks anymore.]

[Baby Yibo brought so much food. Hahaha, even I wouldn't be willing.]

After taking away the guests' items, Xiao Wen took out a transparent plastic box. There were five balls of red, orange, yellow, green, and blue in it.

Xiao Wen said, "Dear mothers and children, please stand at the designated location for the 200m race. When you reach the finish line, take the ball you want and give it to your mother. According to the contents inside, you can find your new home for the next week."

Fang Xiaoyu said happily, "Mommy, I want yellow!"

Lin Qianqian gently patted her daughter's head, "Then, you have to work hard, Xiaoyu!"

Fang Xiaoyu clenched her fists and cheered herself on, "Work hard!"

[Xiaoyu is so adorable!]

[It's another day of me being bluffed into wanting to give birth to a daughter.]

Yang Yike asked Xu Wanjia, "Mommy, what color do you want?"

Xu Wanjia smiled, "Any color is fine!"

Han Jiangxue squatted and whispered to Shen Yibo, "Yibo, can you run faster and get that green ball?"

Shen Yibo nodded, "Okay, Mommy."

Song Yuchen raised her head and looked at Ye Zhenzhen. He wanted to ask her, but he just couldn't spit the words out.

Ye Zhenzhen patted his little head, "The most important thing is to participate. You can choose whichever you want."

Knowing the original result of the original owner of this body forcing her stepson into a tragedy, she refused to force the cute child now.

Song Yuchen's grape-like eyes flashed. He thought of the scene at the airport and decided to take the green ball because Ye Zhenzhen said that she liked green the most.

An Ruilin, who was standing at the side, held his swollen chin and glared at Song Yuchen.

Wu Yuerou bent down and whispered to her son, "Ruirui, you must be the first to rush over and grab the red ball."

An Ruilin thought to himself, "No, I will snatch Song Yuchen's ball."

The assistant started counting down, "Children, are you ready? Let the competition begin!"

As the assistant finished speaking, the five children ran out from the starting line.

The first to reach the finish line was Song Yuchen. He chose green.

[Oh my god, Baby Yuchen's running speed is too fast!]

[To think he can run so fast with his small body. Did it even take him 30 seconds? He was simply flying!]

[He's a sprinting genius. I'm a high school student, but it takes me 30 seconds to run 200 meters! He's so cool!]

[I looked at the time. 38 seconds. For a five-year-old child, it's very impressive.]

Han Jiangxue's heart sank and she glanced at Ye Zhenzhen inadvertently. She thought that the latter probably did not know about the contents of the balls other than herself and Wu Yuerou.

Was it purely coincidental?

Following closely behind was Fang Xiaoyu, who chose yellow.

An Ruilin was the third to run over. He shouted at Song Yuchen, "I want green!"

Song Yuchen ignored him and ran straight to Ye Zhenzhen, "This is for you."

Ye Zhenzhen was stunned for a moment before she praised, "Thank you! Baby Chen, you ran so fast just now. You're so amazing!"

This was indeed beyond her expectations. In her memory, Song Yuchen had never run before.

"You're welcome!" Song Yuchen was very happy to be praised by his stepmother.

[Who said that Ye Zhenzhen's relationship with her stepson was broken? This interaction is so loving.]

[Song Yuchen is so handsome!]

[I think that if Ye Jianjian isn't a vicious stepmother as the rumors say, she and Baby Yuchen are actually the most good-looking group among the guests!]

[I agree!]

The assistant said regretfully to An Ruilin, "Dear, the green ball has been taken. There's still blue, orange, and red."

Wu Yuerou stood on one side and shouted anxiously, "Ruilin, take the red ball! Red!"

An Ruilin roared, "No, I want green!"

Yang Yike and Shen Yibo arrived at the same time. Yang Yike was one step ahead of An Ruilin and took the red ball.

Now, there were only the orange and blue balls left. Shen Yibo turned around and shouted at Han Jiangxue, "Mommy, the green ball you wanted is gone. Is blue okay?"

"...Sure!" Han Jiangxue said.

This little fatty was so stupid!

[Ahhhh, chubby Baby Yibo is so cute. It looks like he really likes Mommy!]

[I keep feeling that because his mother is too strong-minded, the child is too dependent.]

In the end, there was only the orange ball left. Xiao Wen passed the ball straight to Wu Yuerou.

Xiao Wen then continued saying, "Alright, the children performed very well just now. Next, the mothers will open the balls and find their rooms according to the contents inside. Next, I'll bring everyone to their residence."

"Okay!"

Han Jiangxue looked at the blue ball in her hand and was furious.

Wu Yuerou felt the same. She exchanged a glance with Han Jiangxue and sighed hatefully.

Before going on the show, Wu Yuerou had contacted the production team through her relationship with her husband who was the CEO. No matter what the accommodations were, she wanted to stay in the best one.

Therefore, the production team's staff also made arrangements in advance and told her to choose the red ball.

After learning about the contents of the balls, she immediately told Han Jiangxue about them. However, she did not expect that she would not get the one she wanted.

Now, she had no idea what the place she would be living in was like.
