Chapter 1971: Look How Busy She Was!
That was it!
s.h.i.+ Xiaoya and her a.s.sistant.
Xia Yixin almost smashed her phone into the TV in anger.
The viewers all reacted differently.
At the Han Family home.
Old Mrs. Han forced Old Mr. Han to watch this week’s Survivor with her.
Han Zhuoling had reminded them that the third episode was airing today, the one where he and s.h.i.+ Xiaoya were both appearing.
The Han Family wouldn’t miss it for the world.
They were all curious what kind of show it was for both Han Zhuoling and s.h.i.+ Xiaoya to partic.i.p.ate in.
Moreover, if their memory served them right, Han Zhuoling seemed to have started dating s.h.i.+ Xiaoya officially when they were shooting the third episode.
It could be considered some kind of anniversary of theirs. How exciting!
“I was wondering if Zhuoling knew how to take care of Xiaoya during the show,” Old Mrs. Han muttered to her partner, “but seeing how they usually interact, I reckon it wouldn’t be too different when they were filming.”
Indeed, after finis.h.i.+ng the episode, Old Mrs. Han was cupping her cheeks.
“What is it? Toothache?” Old Mr. Han looked at his wife.
“Nope, it’s all the fluff and sweetness.” Old Mrs. Han held her position. “Thrown at us by our eldest grandson. Who could have guessed he’s actually worse when he was filming.”
Old Mr. Han rubbed his newly-trimmed beard, nodding in satisfaction. “Zhuoling’s a self-taught master! That’s great! What’s good about showing off to his own family members? Flaunting to the whole nation, that’s true showing off!”
As if triggered by Old Mr. Han’s words, Old Mrs. Han immediately clapped her hands. “Right! You reminded me!”
She then grabbed her phone and quickly searched her contacts.
Old Mr. Han peeked—it was Old Mrs. Wei.
Old Mr. Han: “…”
Funny. Lord knew who started it, but one by one, it became a tradition for this group of old ladies.
The one whose grandson had managed to snag a girlfriend would show off to the others whose grandsons were still single.
Old Mrs. Han naturally made the announcement to the group when Han Zhuoli got married back then.
But her sense of achievement now far surpa.s.sed that.
Because Han Zhuoling was a much more difficult case than Han Zhuoli!
Aloof and distant, unclear about his own feelings, and someone for whom girls were always the farthest from the mind.
Old Mrs. Han originally thought Han Zhuoling’s marriage would be a long-term battle, but it was settled unexpectedly quickly and satisfactorily.
How could she not be happy? How could she not boast about it?
Old Mrs. Wei at first thought that no matter how bad Wei Zhiqian was, there was still Han Zhuoling setting the bar.
Yet now…
“Old Mrs. Wei, have you watched tonight’s Survivor yet?” Old Mrs. Han asked.
Of course Old Mrs. Wei had. She’s watching the bloopers now.
The production team was so cruel; the bloopers were just fluff from Han Zhuoling and s.h.i.+ Xiaoya.
Old Mrs. Wei couldn’t give Old Mrs. Han the chance to boast, or at least not too much freedom to do so.
Hence, she replied, “No, I’m worrying about affairs of the state! Like the Cross-Strait relations, when can we achieve peace and unity? And the recent trade war. All these important matters. Where would I get the time to enjoy variety shows?”
Old Mrs. Han: “…”
Look how busy she was!
Even worrying about state affairs!
Old Mrs. Wei wasn’t someone who concerned herself with such national matters!
Old Mrs. Han obviously didn’t believe her words.
“Didn’t watch? It’s okay, you can watch the uploaded episode on the website, they don’t even have ads! How convenient,” Old Mrs. Han said. “You must watch it! It’s the episode where my grandson and granddaughter-in-law started their relations.h.i.+p. It’s really interesting!”
