As far as I understand to your question, you should create new class that holds both your list and message (instead of passing that to ViewBag).

public class YourResponse
{
    public string Message { get; set; }
    public List<SomeContent> Content { get; set; }
}

Then in your action in controller, create a new instance of this class and fill in the values and pass this instance back to the client.

public ActionResult YourActionName()
{
    // do the stuff here to get message and list
    var response = new YourResponse
    {
        Message = message, //insert your message here
        Content = list //and list of data here
    }
    return Json(response);
}

And finally read and use the data from server within client code.

function OnSuccessed(data)
{
    var message = data.Message;
    var list = data.Content;
    // you can work with message and list here
}

Just note that this is raw example, I have not run the code.
