I Refused to Be a Substitute, and Shot to Fame on a Variety Show With My Mother-In-Law - Chapter 130

130 Ask Li Xiwu If She Minds Little You’s Existence

The Xue family was not considered a wealthy family. However, they were relatively rich. Mr. Xue was a coal boss with connections in all directions. He had a mine, so Xue Jinzhu could be considered a proper rich lady.

As the executive director of the variety show, Gao Yueban naturally knew about the appearance of Xue Jinzhu in the show. She was a combination mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, signed with Hua Guan, her manager was Li Xiwu, and so on…

He had just called Li Xiwu over to ask about this situation so that he could figure out something about Xue Jinzhu.

“Miss Xue and Master Tang should have contact in private, right?” Gao Yueban asked. He was afraid that when the time came, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law would not be too familiar with each other and would be ridiculed by the netizens.

!!
Li Xiwu didn’t dare to be too sure. “I don’t think so. This time, the third group of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law came out of nowhere to save the situation. They came in a hurry. Don’t worry about Tang Xian. We’ve already communicated. It’s not a big problem.”

Gao Yueban nodded. “I don’t have to worry about Master Tang. It’s just that… How is Miss Xue? Is she a troublemaker?”

Li Xiwu immediately understood why Gao Yueban suddenly wanted to chat with her. So he wanted to find out about Xue Jinzhu. After all, she was Xue Jinzhu’s manager. She knew Xue Jinzhu the best.

She did not hide anything and told the truth. “Director Gao, Xue Jinzhu’s personality is a little jumpy. For the next recording… Director Gao, you might have to be more tolerant. I’ll often communicate with her during the recording process and try to finish the recording as steadily as possible.”

These words were a precaution for Gao Yueban.

As expected, the smile on Gao Yueban’s face suddenly froze. “Jumpy… Then Miss Xue should listen to you, right?”

Li Xiwu replied calmly, “Not necessarily.”

Gao Yueban swallowed his saliva. “It’s over. This person is a resource celebrity. Her father is so willing to spend money on her. If she quietly finishes recording the variety show, everyone will be happy. If the entire variety show is in chaos, then will my variety show be able to finish recording?”

Li Xiwu pursed her lips and smiled faintly. “The variety show should be able to finish recording. Director Gao, don’t worry too much.”

With that, Li Xiwu asked, “Xue Jinzhu’s resources were all spent on her by her father. Who did Director Gao hear it from?”

Gao Yueban said, “I guessed.”

Li Xiwu: “…”

This chat worried Gao Yueban. He had thought that he could find Li Xiwu to understand Xue Jinzhu’s personality so that the program missions could be better tailored. In the end, he became even more worried.

However, at this point, Gao Yueban mentioned something important. “The first episode of our variety show has already been edited. The original plan was to broadcast it on the Wind Platform last night, but after Chi Xu’s incident, it can’t be broadcast anymore.”

Li Xiwu pursed her lips. “I know.”

As an insider, Li Xiwu naturally knew about this. If Chi Xu had not touched on a criminal case, the show would not have been affected.

However, this matter had a huge impact. Chi Xu would still face prison. The previous episodes would definitely not be broadcast. It was a blessing in disguise that “Mother-in-Law Joy” was not implicated and stopped.

Li Xiwu comforted him. “Although there are some losses, the advantages are all displayed in the live broadcast. At least the results of the live broadcast are very good. Director Gao, imagine the consequences of the broadcast. The entire variety show might be banned in the end. The show can still be live broadcasted now. You should be satisfied.”

Yu Jing, who was walking over, chimed in, “Miss Li is right. Yesterday, there were still internal staff who complained that we should finish recording the variety show before exposing Chi Xu’s bad deeds. It sounds like that, but if we expose it after the recording, the entire variety show will be banned. It’s equivalent to working for nothing for half a month.”

Li Xiwu nodded. “Yes, that’s why I said it was lucky.”

Yu Jing suddenly said, “By the way, we have to change the venue tomorrow.”

Li Xiwu raised her eyebrows slightly.

Yu Jing said, “After what happened to Chi Xu, the internal department held a meeting overnight to discuss arranging something meaningful for the guests.”

Li Xiwu said, “Such as?”

Gao Yueban answered, “Doing charity.”

Doing charity was a very positive and simple thing. Moreover, many celebrities in the industry were doing public welfare. There were also celebrities who relied on public welfare to clear their names. However, Li Xiwu felt that the program’s arrangement was not that simple.

And the truth was indeed as she had thought. It was not that simple.

–

When Li Xiwu returned, Xu Muzhen and Xiang Lan had already returned to the inn.

Only Han Qianye was waiting for her here. Seeing her return, Han Qianye took the initiative to hand her hand warmer to Li Xiwu. “I’m warm. I’ll warm you up now.”

Li Xiwu refused. “No need. I’m not cold.”

Han Qianye said, “I don’t believe you.” Li Xiwu was stunned. Han Qianye went forward and grabbed Li Xiwu’s hand. “You still say you’re not cold. Your hand is like ice.”

Li Xiwu’s eyebrows curved. “It’s natural to feel cold during autumn and winter. My body isn’t cold.”

Han Qianye insisted on pushing the hand warmer to her. “It’s too heavy. It’s difficult for me to hold it. Help me hold it.”

Li Xiwu: “…”

She knew that this was Han Qianye’s good intentions.

It was quite cold outside. Han Qianye suggested, “Do you want to go in?” She went to see what the production team had prepared for breakfast today.

Li Xiwu nodded. “Okay.” As the two of them walked into the inn, there was no one else around. Li Xiwu took the opportunity to mention it now. “Auntie, the four hundred million…”

Hearing Li Xiwu take the initiative to mention the four hundred million, Han Qianye interrupted, “Do you have any breakfast you especially want to eat? I’ll talk to the kitchen.”

Li Xiwu shook her head and continued, “I hope you won’t go back on your word about the four hundred million.”

Han Qianye’s heart stopped. She half smiled. “I, Han Qianye, will never go back on my word. How can I go back on my word?”

Li Xiwu stopped short. Han Qianye stopped and turned to look at Li Xiwu. Li Xiwu smiled formally and said to her, “Auntie, let’s work together happily.”

Han Qianye’s heart skipped a beat again. She probed, “Do you… really want to divorce Jingzhou?”

Li Xiwu pursed her lips and didn’t answer.

If she answered yes, Han Qianye would probably spread this to Pei Jingzhou. It would probably be a little difficult to get 400 million yuan. Moreover, it would be very easy for Pei Jingzhou to know that Han Qianye had given her 400 million yuan. She was just afraid that Pei Jingzhou would interfere and she would not be able to get the 400 million yuan in the end.

In order to protect the four hundred million from going down the drain, Li Xiwu didn’t mean what she said. “I’m not impatient.”

Han Qianye heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s good.”

Li Xiwu looked at Han Qianye’s expression and said, “But it’s impossible for Fourth Brother and I to walk to the end because Fourth Brother deserves better and someone who’s more suitable for him.”

Li Xiwu thought there was nothing wrong with that. However, Han Qianye felt all kinds of heart attacks. She sighed calmly. “How could he meet anyone better than you?” With that, she looked at Li Xiwu again and asked carefully, “Do you… mind Little You?”
