I Refused to Be a Substitute, and Shot to Fame on a Variety Show With My Mother-In-Law - Chapter 59

59 The Mystery of the Past

Han Ping was tall and handsome. When he laughed, he was amiable. When he wasn’t smiling, he looked a little dignified. Li Xiwu felt that he was like an old king who had retired from a high position all year round.

Li Xiwu said tactfully, “It’s more appropriate for me to call you Mister.”

Han Pin took another sip of tea. “Alright, call me whatever you like. I don’t care.”

Just as he finished speaking, someone was shouting outside. “Li Xiwu? Li Xiwu??”

!!
Li Xiwu recognized Han Qianye’s voice. She said to Han Pin, “Mister, I’ll go out for a while.”

Han Pin smiled meaningfully. “Go, go.”

Li Xiwu turned and went out. Gao Yueban asked the cameraman to adjust the live broadcast.

Li Xiwu came out and saw Han Qianye standing outside the iron gate of the villa. She walked over. As soon as she approached, she heard Han Qianye’s anxious voice. “I heard that you left with an old man selling grapefruit. I thought you’d been kidnapped and scared me badly. Do you know that I’ve been chasing you all the way here?”

The big iron gate of the villa was closed. They would go in and out through the small door on the other side.

Li Xiwu opened the small door and came out. When she saw Han Qianye, who was filled with worry for her, she said apologetically, “When I went out, I thought you were resting, so I didn’t call you.”

Han Qianye walked over and chattered non-stop. “I haven’t rested since. I waited for you for a long time but you didn’t come back. I went downstairs to look for you and heard that you had left with an old man selling grapefruit. I changed into a pair of flat shoes and ran over. What if you were kidnapped? I… How am I going to explain it to my son!”

Li Xiwu pursed her lips. The more Han Qianye spoke, the angrier she became. “Don’t you know that you can’t leave with strangers when the adults are not around?”

Li Xiwu: “…”

Han Qianye said, “Don’t you know that there are many liars these days? They especially lie to little girls like you who don’t have any adults around.” She said, “When the time comes, they’ll trick you to a remote mountain village and lock you up to have children with the single men there. You won’t be able to escape even if you cry.”

Li Xiwu: “…”

Han Qianye said a lot in one breath. It was obvious that she was really angry. She was so angry that Li Xiwu did not tell her that she had gone out.

Li Xiwu listened quietly. When Han Qianye finished, she asked, “Are you thirsty?”

Han Qianye swallowed and realized that her throat was extremely dry. She took the time to answer, “A little.”

Li Xiwu said, “Then let’s go in and have a glass of water.”

Han Qianye: “?”

She was very angry. However, Li Xiwu seemed to have no temper, making Han Qianye lose her temper.

At the same time, Han Pin, who was in the villa, heard a woman call him a human trafficker from afar. He wanted to laugh, but he couldn’t help but laugh. He raised his head and took a sip of tea, but he choked.

“Ahem, ahem, ahem!” Han Pin coughed violently. He thought to himself, This is Fu Town after all. It has long been listed as a key protected area of the country. Where did so many human traffickers come from? He saw Little Li lead Han Qianye in.

Han Pin cleared his throat and said firmly, “The house is deep and cold. Those who come need to be sincere.”

It was an imposing statement. Li Xiwu and Han Qianye stopped at the same time. Han Qianye asked, “Does that mean I’m not welcome?”

Li Xiwu pursed her lips. “No.”

Han Qianye said, “I heard it, but… why does this voice sound a little familiar?”

Li Xiwu looked at her. “Sounds familiar?”

This sentence was familiar. Li Xiwu remembered that the mister who sold grapefruit had inexplicably said that she should call him uncle…

Just as she was thinking, Han Qianye’s surprised voice sounded in her ears. “Whoa! Why are you here?”

Li Xiwu looked up in surprise. Han Pin walked over with a smile and imitated Han Qianye’s tone. “Whoa, why can’t I be here?”

Li Xiwu: “…”

Director Gao: “…”

The netizens who had rushed into the live-stream a minute ago: ???

[What’s going on?]

[Is this the new guest? Looking at his age… Could he be Han Qianye’s husband??]

[No… this man looks a little familiar.]

[Which veteran actor is this?]

[The first season is the daughter-in-law’s husband on a variety show. Could it be that the mother-in-law’s husband is on a variety show in the second season?]

[If the husbands of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are all on variety shows, I’ll look forward to it.]

[I study political law. To be honest, I think he’s a little like the big shot in our book.]

[Damn, I just saw a comment saying that the man who appeared on screen today seems to have been in a political law textbook???]

[He can’t be that…]

[That big shot’s surname is Han. If he’s really that person, and Han Qianye’s surname is also Han… Damn! Not only is Han Qianye a noble lady, but her biological brother is also…]

The comments on the screen were going crazy. The number of online viewers in the live-stream had also increased from 100,000 to 800,000. Soon, it would exceed a million.

Li Xiwu could not see the comments, so she naturally could not guess Han Pin’s identity. However, in the short conversation between Han Qianye and this mister who sold grapefruit, she could clearly feel that the two of them knew each other and should be very familiar with each other.

She turned and went in first. The live camera also fell on her alone. She first put the kumquat she had just picked in a small bag. While doing this, her mind was not idle. She was thinking about how to let Xie Wen take the first step out of Chi Xu’s control as soon as possible. As long as she took the first step, it would be easy after that.

–

Outside.

Han Qianye asked Han Pin to speak off camera. There was no one else around.

Han Qianye asked, “What are you doing here?”

Han Pin smiled kindly. “I knew that my good nephew was married, but I have never seen my nephew’s wife. I watched the live broadcast. Not bad, not bad. I just happened to have a villa in Fu Town, so I came over to take a look at my nephew’s wife.”

Han Qianye said, “Just watch the live broadcast. Why are you here?”

The smile on Han Pin’s face disappeared. “Han Qianye, am I embarrassing you here?”

Han Qianye said angrily, “You made me look very silly here.”

Han Pin laughed out loud. “Hahahaha!”

Han Qianye said, “Why are you still laughing? If the audience knew your identity and compared me to you, wouldn’t I be embarrassed?”

Han Pin: “Hahahahaha!”

Han Qianye: “…”

Everyone in the Han family was outstanding. From Han Qianye’s parents to her two brothers, they were all very outstanding. Only she did not have many achievements. In the end, she married a wealthy man.

After laughing enough, Han Pin returned to the topic. “To be honest, this nephew’s wife looks quite like Old Li’s daughter.” At the mention of Li Huaisheng, there was no smile on Han Pin’s face. There was only reverence and admiration.

Han Qianye frowned. “They just look alike.”

Han Pin sighed. “Think about those years. Jingzhou could free up more than a hundred days a year to fly to Thailand. If not for that accident, Jingzhou and Little You would have married long ago.”

Han Qianye gestured for Han Pin to stop. “Alright, it’s not like you don’t know that Little You has already…”
