Chapter 449 I'm Married Too
Since Yu Huan was going to stay on stage, Sister Ru consulted with Zhou Xiaoya, who had come to ask Zhang Yue for permission, and suggested that Lin Yourong go to the guest seats with her.
Zhou Xiaoya learned from their conversation that the visitor was Lin Su, who had come from the Muse Recording Studio to see her agent and also to check out the recording of "Day Day Up". She readily agreed.
She and Zhang Yue took photos with Lin Yourong and chatted for quite a while.
At this time.
Lin Yourong followed closely behind Sister Ru. As soon as she stepped into the studio, a lively and bustling atmosphere greeted her.
The shouts of the audience echoed in my ears:
"Ni Ping!"
The two walked briskly along the side passage.
"Let's give a round of applause to Ni Ping!" Qian Feng and Tian Yuan's voices rang out in unison amidst the noise and commotion.
As soon as he finished speaking, thunderous applause erupted from the audience.
Lin Yourong walked around the stage, trying to find Yu Huan in the crowd.
But what she saw were unfamiliar faces dressed in bright red and festive clothes, both men and women, with a few five or six-year-old children mixed in.
Their faces were beaming with bright smiles, and they were lining the street to welcome them.
Amidst cheerful and festive music, Ni Ping walked out from the side stage with a beaming smile, clapping softly as she leisurely made her way to the center of the stage.
Wang Han immediately strode onto the stage, warmly extended his hand, and repeatedly said, "Welcome, welcome."
Their hands clasped briefly, then quickly separated.
Immediately afterwards, members of the host team came forward to greet them.
As they shook hands and greeted Ni Ping one by one, Wang Han began to introduce them one by one:
"Xiao Wu, Tian Yuan, Qian Feng——"
As Ni Ping was shaking hands with Qian Feng, who was bowing respectfully, she suddenly asked, half-jokingly, "Where's Hou Feng?"
"A defensive forward?" Tian Yuan replied without hesitation, "The defenders are—"
Wang Han quickly reached out, grabbed Yu Huan's wrist, pulled him in front of him, and said shrewdly, "The defender is Yu Huan."
Lin Yourong, who was sitting in the guest section, couldn't help but burst out laughing when she saw this scene.
The crisp laughter immediately caught the attention of Zhao Zhongxiang, who was standing nearby.
He couldn't help but turn his head curiously and glance at Lin Yourong.
The girl who had suddenly taken a seat in the guest area had her baseball cap pulled low, almost covering most of her forehead, and her mask was also completely covering her face, leaving only her bright and lively eyes showing.
Zhao Zhongxiang couldn't figure it out, so he didn't say anything and turned his attention back to the stage.
Wang Han brought the microphone to his lips and said leisurely, "We are especially happy to have Ms. Ni Ping here today, as well as guest host Yu Huan, and all our friends here. It's truly delightful—"
As he spoke, Wang Han turned to look at Oudi on his right.
Oudi immediately understood and proudly chimed in, "Overjoyed!"
Wang Han nodded, then looked at the main camera and said, "We want to use a line from a very popular CCTV program to express our feelings."
"How should I put it?" Oudi continued to play the straight man.
Wang Han's gaze then turned to Ni Ping. He bowed slightly and said with a face full of emotion, "Thank goodness, you've come!"
After a relaxed and enjoyable interaction, Wang Han suddenly began to imitate Zhao Zhongxiang's distinctive broadcasting style.
"Let me first introduce Ms. Ni Ping to everyone," he said solemnly and earnestly, "Ms. Ni Ping is a person with high achievements in the fields of hosting, film and television, and publishing—"
Upon hearing this, Ni Ping immediately turned to the side, quickly interrupting Wang Han, and called out loudly, "Teacher Zhao."
Wang Han immediately exclaimed "Oh!" with a broad smile, nodding repeatedly as he said, "I recognized it immediately."
Just then, Oudi took a few steps back and moved aside to make room.
Seeing this, Yu Huan also moved to Wang Han's side with perfect understanding.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye.
As the welcoming team gradually left the stage, amidst the uproarious laughter, Wang Han paused, turned to face Yu Huan.
With a teasing smile, he said, "This is a very outstanding young man. I believe that many young viewers in front of the TV must know him."
“Yes,” Tian Yuan echoed.
Wang Han gave a thumbs up and pointed at Yu Huan: "He's a leader at the Jiangnan Morning Post. He became a trending topic because of his good looks, and he's both talented and handsome. He's really outstanding. I'm even thinking of poaching him to be a host at our TV station. It would be such a waste of talent not to let him do on-screen work. I just don't know if the big leaders at the Jiangnan Morning Post will agree to let him go."
As Yu Huan listened to Wang Han's teasing words, she glanced at Sister Ru, who was laughing so hard she was doubled over, and Lin Yourong beside her.
He quickly looked away and then calmly brought the microphone to his mouth.
He feigned surprise and said, "Although I feel you're flattering me too much, after hearing what you said, I'm starting to think I might actually be capable of it. Why don't I call the higher-ups right now and ask if they'd be willing to let me come over?"
As he spoke, he actually pretended to reach into his shirt pocket, as if he were really going to take out his phone to make a call.
Yu Huan improvised and continued, "Dear viewers, you must bear witness for me. If I really have the opportunity to work at the TV station, I will have to thank 'Brother Han' properly."
Seeing his humorous demeanor, so different from during rehearsals, Wang Han smiled broadly and hurriedly raised her hand to stop him, saying repeatedly, "No, no, no, you're really going to make a phone call! If I really managed to poach you from the TV station with just one word, your boss would be furious!"
Ni Ping smiled and interjected, "The young man is indeed outstanding. He is handsome and speaks very well. If he were to work at the TV station, he would definitely achieve great things."
Yu Huan quickly bowed slightly and said respectfully, "You flatter me."
Wang Han smiled, then turned to face Ni Ping, bringing the conversation back to the main topic, saying, "We call Ni Ping 'Sister' now, and we're used to calling her 'Grandma,' ever since that book came out—"
He was referring to Ni Ping's "Grandma's Sayings," published in 2010.
It records the story between Ni Ping and her maternal grandmother and won the 5th Bing Xin Prose Award.
Although Yu Huan held the microphone like everyone else in order to fit in, she knew that Ni Ping's solo segment was coming up, so she didn't plan to interrupt.
In short, she was as quiet as a chicken, just like Goryeo's Xiao Wu.
“Hmm.” Ni Ping nodded slightly in response to Wang Han’s words. Wang Han continued, counting on his fingers, “You’ve been doing this lately, publishing a book, painting, acting, and being a program host that we all respect and admire.”
"Yes."
Of these titles, which one do you personally prefer?
Upon hearing this question, Ni Ping gestured with her hands and feet while laughing and said, "For a person, whether you ask me if I like this leg, that leg, this arm, or that arm, they are all my limbs, and I like them all. If you say I can't have any of them missing, then I can't accept it."
“Yes.” Wang Han nodded in deep agreement. “Grandma has recently become a painter and even held an exhibition. Let’s take a look together…”
Lin Yourong leaned back slightly in her chair.
Although photos of Ni Ping's art exhibition had started playing on the big screen, her gaze remained fixed on Yu Huan, and she barely looked at the big screen at all.
She saw Yu Huan wave confidently in her direction, his mouth seemingly saying "hi" silently.
A slight smile crept onto the corners of her mouth beneath her mask.
A feeling of pleasure rose in Lin Yourong's heart, when she suddenly felt her arm being gently nudged.
At the same time, Sister Ru whispered in her ear, "Yu Huan's performance on stage was quite impressive. His stage presence was natural and steady, and he wasn't nervous at all. Plus, he's very quick-witted. I always thought he was perfect for hosting, right?"
Lin Yourong listened and agreed in her heart, nodding: "He does seem to have potential in this area."
Xiaoqian, whose attention was originally focused on the stage, inadvertently noticed Yu Huan waving in their direction.
She couldn't help but look away out of curiosity, then glanced at the two people whispering to each other in front of her.
Leaving aside the fact that I know Sister Ru, especially the one wearing a baseball cap and a mask, I can tell from her figure and occasional gestures that she is a very elegant young woman.
This made Xiaoqian's mind wander.
The way they're trying to hide it, could it be some kind of celebrity?
To be able to sit so casually in the first row of the guest section, and for the staff not to stop him at all...
Could it be Lin Su?
Even though Xiaoqian's curiosity was growing stronger, listening to Wang Han and Ni Ping talking so eloquently on stage, and with a camera pointing directly at them, it really wasn't the time to investigate.
Moreover, she has to go on stage later and is too busy to take care of herself.
On stage, they talked about painting for nearly half an hour, and then some colorful ink paintings began to appear on the big screen.
Everyone turned to look at the big screen.
Ni Ping gave a brief explanation, then gestured towards the woman's back in the painting and said with a smile, "I can't draw myself either, so I'll draw Xiaoqian, my assistant."
"Huh?" Wang Han immediately turned around and craned his neck to look at the guest seats, asking loudly, "Is Xiaoqian here? Where is Xiaoqian?"
Everyone followed Wang Han's gaze.
Immediately, cries of "Xiaoqian!" and "Where are you?" rose and fell.
Xiaoqian, dressed in a red sweatshirt, carrying a backpack, with a striped scarf around her neck and holding a thermos in one hand, simply took the microphone from a staff member and went up on stage.
Xiaoqian had just raised the microphone to her mouth and called out "Brother Han" to Wang Han when Tian Yuan suddenly asked, half-jokingly, "Where's Caichen?"
The others on stage didn't react much to these words, but they did make Yu Huan laugh.
Upon hearing this, he quickly moved the microphone away from his mouth to avoid accidentally bursting out laughing.
After a few moments of smacking his teeth and making faces, Wang Han finally said seriously, "Xiaoqian's voice acting is especially good, in 'Transformers 2,' and in 'Empresses in the Palace,' that one called..."
As he spoke, Wang Han turned to look at Xiaoqian with a questioning expression.
He really forgot.
"Huanbi." Xiaoqian nodded in response, then suddenly smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to capture me. I want to betray you."
“Sure,” Wang Han replied humorously.
Xiaoqian then added, "But—but I'm a little worried. If I go back, will I lose my job?"
In her words, she seemed to have some reservations about Ni Ping's sudden idea to have her appear on stage.
Ni Ping took over the conversation with a slightly serious expression, and said half-jokingly, "Go work for Teacher Zhao."
Upon hearing this, Wang Han immediately changed the subject and said to Ni Ping, "I heard that she doesn't have a boyfriend yet and has been following you guys around."
Ni Ping sighed softly, "Because she's always following me around, and all I see are people like you who are already taken, so it's really hard for her to find a partner. And sometimes, I get so anxious that I ask everyone I meet about it—"
After a pause, Ni Ping turned to the side and asked, "Are you married?"
Standing on Ni Ping's side, Tian Yuan answered without hesitation, "I'm married."
"Who asked you?!" Qian Feng immediately retorted, half-jokingly.
“Yes, right,” Ni Ping leaned forward slightly, her gaze sweeping over Tian Yuan, and looked at Yu Huan with a smile. She nodded and said, “I was asking about this handsome guy!”
In this situation, Xiaoqian couldn't help but purse her lips.
Wang Han smiled slightly, just about to help Yu Huan out of the predicament.
Unexpectedly, Yu Huan, who had been standing on the stage for half an hour without saying much, gracefully brought the microphone to her lips and said with a smile, "I'm married too."
A burst of good-natured laughter and murmurs immediately rose from the audience.
There was even a woman's voice, high-pitched and rather jarring, loudly proclaiming, "Ah!? Our boss got married?"
Wang Han was genuinely surprised by his frankness and couldn't help but pause for a moment. Then, he revealed a meaningful smile and continued Ni Ping's earlier words, saying, "Sister Ni Ping, you see, it's hard for such an outstanding young man not to be taken!"
“That’s true.” Ni Ping nodded cheerfully, but then said, “It’s hard to find a girl who’s too independent. She has a house and a car, so she’s not in a hurry to find someone. And she’s also met a lot of people…”
He spoke eloquently on stage.
Lin Yourong, sitting in the guest seats, unconsciously grabbed Sister Ru's hand on the armrest of her chair.
Sister Ru felt the force slightly, chuckled, and whispered in Su Su's ear, "Su Su, what's wrong? Yu Huan just said he got married, did that move you to tears?"
"No way!" Lin Yourong sniffed, her voice trembling slightly.
