Ch 54: Chat Separately
【Little Handsome Guy and Hai Baoer are actually from the same clan? Does the Huo family have such good genes? Envy so much!】
【Asking if I don’t understand, Handsome Guy, do you have a girlfriend? How about me?】
【Which school is Handsome Guy from? I’ll see if I can run into him.】
【If I can’t marry Hai Baoer in this life, becoming Hai Baoer’s sister-in-law wouldn’t be bad either.】
Similar comments quickly occupied the barrage area, and finally someone couldn’t stand it anymore and spoke out to condemn them.
【Are you guys done? Do you have to be so eager to marry!】
On the live broadcast, the subtle interview with the new guest continued, only shifting from Huo Zhaohua to Lin Xiaoyun.
“Aunt Lin, how old are you this year? Are you forty-five?” Lin Tian took the barbecue, politely thanked her, and smoothly began the interview task.
Lin Xiaoyun smiled kindly, “You girl really has a sweet mouth, I’m already fifty-one this year.”
Lin Tian widened her eyes in surprise, “You don’t look like it at all, you maintain yourself so well.”
“It’s far from comparable to Madam Huo.” Lin Xiaoyun said while busily spreading meat on the wire mesh, “She’s the one who’s really young, sitting with you guys, she looks like she’s the same age.”
Madam Huo?
Lin Tian was stunned for a second before realizing that she was talking about Gu Qingyin. The latter is Huo Xinghai’s Mother, so it’s reasonable to be called Madam Huo, but no one has ever called her that, so it sounds a bit… awkward?
Gu Qingyin chuckled, “It’s not like we’re filming a TV series, ‘Madam’ is too strange, just call me by my name.”
Lin Xiaoyun glanced at Huo Xinghai, and seeing that he didn’t have any reaction, she smiled and agreed, her voice soft, “Then I’ll be presumptuous and call you Qingyin.”
Gu Qingyin maintained her smile, but a layer of goosebumps rose on her body—Lin Xiaoyun always gave her the feeling of a weasel wishing the chicken a Happy New Year.
The scene suddenly quieted down, so quiet that only the wind could be heard.
Lin Tian felt that the atmosphere was not right, and inconspicuously put her hand on Lin Xian’s knee, pinching it hard, signaling him to say something quickly.
Lin Xian hissed unexpectedly, that brat actually used a death grip!
The movement wasn’t loud, but because it was too quiet, it still attracted the attention of others.
Lin Xian gave a dry laugh, “Um, I’m just curious, what is life like in a wealthy family, is it really as exaggerated as in novels and TV series?”
Apart from the siblings, the other four guests on the scene were all Huo Family Members, and the Huo Family is definitely the top of the top among wealthy families, so no one is more qualified than them to answer this question.
Moreover, the public is also very curious about the so-called wealthy families. As soon as this question came out, the level of discussion in the live broadcast room immediately rose by a few percentage points, and there was still a tendency to continue rising.
The director perked up, took out the old actor’s whiteboard, and wrote down prompts with a rustling sound, starting to remotely control the guests: This topic can be discussed for a while, but pay attention to the scale! Don’t flaunt your wealth!!
Gu Qingyin blinked, telling the truth, she was actually very curious too. Although she is the Huo Family’s current head’s Mother, she actually hasn’t enjoyed the Huo Family’s wealth and glory much.
To be precise, she disappeared before she had time to enjoy it, and she hasn’t been back for long. Although her status is noble, she really doesn’t know how to enjoy it.
So, Gu Qingyin also looked at Huo Xinghai expectantly, with an expression of hoping to get the standard answer.
Huo Xinghai didn’t plan to speak at first, but seeing Gu Qingyin’s expression, he immediately felt helpless, frowned and thought for a moment before speaking.
“The biggest difference between wealthy families and ordinary people is the amount of wealth. Because there’s more money, the quality of life is a little higher, it’s easy to understand, right? As for the others… there shouldn’t be much difference, right?”
Huo Xinghai suddenly remembered a popular meme on the internet, ” ‘When it gets cold, Wang will go bankrupt’ are all exaggerated artistic techniques, just listen to it for fun. The collision of capital is not that simple, no one will take the hard work of several generations to fight head-on.”
【The quality of life is a little higher… He said it so lightly.】
【Is it living in a Manor, driving luxury cars, flying planes, sailing yachts, and the price of casually opening a bottle of wine is more than I earn in decades of that kind of “a little higher”?】
【My heart is pierced, sister! There’s no need to summarize it so accurately!】
Huo Zhaohua added: “Real wealthy families attach great importance to the education of the next generation, and rarely do situations of bullying others occur.”
Especially the heirs, humility and courtesy are basic qualities. Those who spend their days reveling in wine and women and causing trouble are mostly second-generation heirs who rely on others for a living.
Lin Xiaoyun also said with a smile, “They, father and son, are both very busy, so I’m much more leisurely. Gathering with sisters, listening to concerts, visiting art exhibitions, doing charity work, occasionally participating in auctions… People, ah, can’t be idle, otherwise it’s easy to overthink.”
【Isn’t this the life I dream of?】
【The life of a wealthy Madam is so unoriginal, but it’s damn tempting.】
【Curious about Qingjie.】
【Same curiosity, Qingjie, tell us about it!】
At this moment, Lin Xiaoyun seemed to share the same thoughts as the netizens, her eyes turned slightly, and she said with a smile, “In comparison, Qingyin is the real Madam of a wealthy family, she probably isn’t as bored as I am usually, right?”
She was really curious, where did Gu Qingyin go after disappearing for so many years, what did she experience, why does she look the same as she did twenty years ago? Why did she come back so suddenly?
From the moment she saw Gu Qingyin on the internet, these questions had been swirling in her mind, never stopping. But she couldn’t ask too directly, so she could only probe indirectly.
Gu Qingyin didn’t expect the topic to suddenly turn to her, she was slightly stunned before smiling, “It’s really not the same. I have my own things to be busy with, I work when there’s work, I stay at home when there’s no work, I don’t like those elegant things, I just like to curl up on the sofa and watch dramas and play games.”
【Isn’t this me?! I work on weekdays, stay at home on holidays, order takeout and watch videos, no one can make me leave home a step.】
【So this is Qingjie’s secret to staying young? Synchronizing with the lifestyle habits of contemporary young people?】
【Does that mean, if I continue to maintain my current lifestyle habits, I won’t get old?】
【Not sure, I’ll try it.】
【Qingjie is too down-to-earth, no wonder she can say things like being sisters with her daughter-in-law. Love it!】
【Is no one curious about what Qingjie does?】
【Didn’t Lin Xiaoyun call Qingjie Master Gu just now? I’m guessing she should be in design, the kind who takes orders and draws blueprints herself.】
……
The netizens didn’t know why, but the guests on the scene, except for Huo Zhaohua, all knew what Gu Qingyin was talking about.
Lin Xiaoyun smiled after listening, “Qingyin lives a very self-fulfilling life, it’s enviable.”
The topic stopped there again, and the director announced that the live broadcast would officially resume tomorrow, and then closed the live broadcast room.
Gu Qingyin had eaten almost enough, and called Huo Xinghai to go back to the Villa, but she was stopped by Lin Xiaoyun behind her after taking only a few steps.
Gu Qingyin turned her head to look at her.
Lin Xiaoyun stared at her for a few seconds before speaking softly, “For the sake of our past relationship, can we chat separately?”
Gu Qingyin thought, what kind of relationship do the two of them have? The relationship of trying to seduce her man and failing?
However, Gu Qingyin didn’t refuse, but responded with a smile, she wanted to see what kind of good fart this person could let out.
