Everyone burst out laughing. The atmosphere also became lively from the seriousness of Han Qianye’s rejection on behalf of her daughter.
The male emotional analyst thought: Old Yu said what I wanted to say but didn’t dare to say.
The female emotional analyst thought: Auntie, can you relax your gender requirements a little? Don’t get stuck like this?
Han Qianye looked at Yu Qingye. “Go away.”
Yu Qingye said, “Okay.” When he turned around, Yu Qingye thought to himself, “If this episode is broadcasted, the number of people participating in the registration will definitely explode.”
And Li Xiwu’s prediction had been accurate. Not only would Han Qianye not mess up the show when she went on stage, but she would also inadvertently bring a lot of popularity to the show. In order to marry into the family, the registration number of the show might really explode after this episode.
But this was very bad for Li Xiwu.
Han Qianye wasn’t the same as her. Although her face had been modified and her temperament had changed, it was difficult to avoid people from prying into her. She wanted to be invisible. In the end, it went viral on the blind date show. Li Xiwu was a little distressed, afraid that trouble would come knocking.
On the other hand, Lu Cheng’s expression was more or less indescribable. He liked female guest number nine very much, but his own conditions were very good. He was the only son in the family. If he agreed to marry into the family, his parents would be furious.
But Guest Number Nine really looked like Mrs. Pei. Back then, at a large business cocktail party, he was lucky enough to meet that big shot in the business world, Pei Jingzhou, and Mrs. Pei beside him.
Mrs. Pei’s cold temperament made it difficult for people to look away. One look and he was infatuated for ten thousand years. Ever since then, she had been in his dreams.
Tonight, he was supposed to deal with his parents coming to this blind date show. Unexpectedly, he met a female guest who was very similar to Mrs. Pei backstage. Apart from her temperament and dressing, she looked at least sixty to seventy percent like Mrs. Pei.
Therefore, after Lu Cheng went on stage, all the attention and topics were blatantly placed on the ninth female guest. He wanted everyone to know that he was determined to get guest number nine.
He was about to take her down. He was about to succeed in holding her hand.
The true person was someone he could only dream of. It was not a bad idea to find a fake version. After all, she was really similar. Unexpectedly, a ‘mother-in-law’ appeared out of nowhere. Not only did she want him to marry into the family, but even their future children had to take the surname of the woman!
If she was the true person, he would be willing to take the surname of the woman, let alone marry into the family and have his child take the surname of the woman. Of course, this was his fantasy. But the other party was just a replica of the person he had been dreaming about. It wasn’t worth the effort.
And so, Lu Cheng expressed his regret and chose to give up. “I’m sorry, Auntie. I really can’t fulfill your request.”
Han Qianye also expressed regretfully, “It’s fate.”
At this moment, the soft music of the stereo changed to a relatively low light music. Male guest number one regretfully left the venue.
Han Qianye turned around and looked at Li Xiwu. She comforted him in a serious manner, “Relationships are about fate. You two aren’t fated to be together. Isn’t it also written in the literature of Zengguang? Sometimes, fate is necessary in life. Don’t force it.”
Li Xiwu suppressed a smile and cooperated. “Yes.”
The episode where Han Qianye went on stage was actually not a small episode. Instead, it added a lot of excitement to the show. Actually, this was not what Han Qianye had originally thought. In a fit of anger, she walked up valiantly. She had not thought of the consequences of doing so.
There was only one very clear thought in her mind. Her son and Li Xiwu were not divorced yet. She could not let Li Xiwu be seduced by another pig in advance. She comforted herself only because she did not want her son to be cuckolded.
Yes, that’s right.
Back offstage, Pei Jiao said excitedly, “Mom, you were very stable just now.”
“Yeah, I think so too.” Han Qianye was in a good mood. She had just done something big. The recording of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law show was not finished yet. How could she let Li Xiwu escape first? Fortunately, she was smart enough to stop her!
Awesome! She gave herself a thumbs up!
Pei Jiao chased after her and asked, “Mom, are you planning to help Brother take that female guest number nine into his harem?”
Han Qianye was stunned. “What harem?”
Pei Jiao said, “Doesn’t that female guest number nine look like Brother’s first love?”
Han Qianye poked Pei Jiao’s head with her finger. “Your eyes are blurry! Look carefully. She’s your sister-in-law.”
Pei Jiao looked at the seat of the ninth female guest in the stands and then at Han Qianye. She was silent for a few seconds before saying calmly, “Oh no, the joke went too far.”
Han Qianye said, “I’m not joking.”
Pei Jiao said, “I said, my joke went too far.”
Han Qianye was puzzled. “Huh?”
Pei Jiao was silent for a moment. “Brother should be on his way here.”
Han Qianye was speechless. She thought about how her son cared about Li Xiwu. Afraid that she would be implicated, Han Qianye held Pei Jiao’s hand. “It’s best to leave.”
Pei Jiao got up and followed.
However, after taking two steps, Han Qianye suddenly let go of Pei Jiao’s hand. “No, I’m afraid that after I leave, another male guest will confess to Li Xiwu. Leave by yourself and say that you didn’t see me. Anyway, you called your brother over yourself. If anything happens, you’ll have to take the blame.”
Pei Jiao was speechless. However, compared to the risk of staying here, it was better for her to slip away first.
On the stage.
Li Xiwu glanced at Han Qianye and Pei Jiao from time to time. She thought that only Han Qianye was here, but she did not expect Pei Jiao to be here either. Somehow, when she saw Pei Jiao, she had a bad feeling.
After that, Han Qianye was even more vigilant. She thought that as long as any male guest dared to confess to Li Xiwu again, she would go on stage just like before. Just as she was thinking this, someone sat down in the empty seat beside her.
Han Qianye thought that Pei Jiao had returned. “Why aren’t you running anymore?” She didn’t glance sideways at the person sitting down beside her as she asked the question. She did not hear Pei Jiao answer her for a while.
Han Qianye turned around. “Why aren’t you…”
As she was speaking, Han Qianye raised her hand and pushed her sunglasses up. But after seeing who was sitting beside her, Han Qianye put down her sunglasses and swallowed her words.
Pei Jingzhou looked straight at the stage and said coldly, “Mrs. Pei, are you here to watch your daughter-in-law go on a blind date?” After a moment of silence, he said, “What a coincidence. I’m also here to watch my wife go on a blind date. It should be very interesting.”
Han Qianye stood up calmly and prepared to leave.
Pei Jingzhou sneered. “It’s not over yet. Why are you in such a hurry to leave, Mrs. Pei?”
Han Qianye was speechless.
The sequence had progressed to the third male guest. The third male guest was less good-looking and inferior to the first in all aspects. When the questions began, the third male guest asked three female questions in succession.
Once again, there was Li Xiwu.
When the male guest asked the first two female guests, Li Xiwu looked at the audience in boredom, wanting to see if Han Qianye had left. Could it be that Han Qianye would stay for as long as she recorded?
Unexpectedly, when she glanced over, she was stunned!
