Love Variety Show: The despised me exploded in popularity-Chapter 637 - 335 Can’t Laugh Anymore_2

Chapter 637: Chapter 335 Can’t Laugh Anymore_2 Chapter 637 -335 Can’t Laugh Anymore_2 The large flat was indeed very clean, but the interior was empty.

Apart from some furniture, there was almost nothing extra, much like a hotel.

There was food in the fridge, clothes, and bathrobes in the wardrobe.

However, Xu Qingyan and Pei Muchan had brought their clothes, so they weren’t particularly concerned.

After freshening up, the agreed-upon compensation entered its formal phase.

The next day, early in the morning.

Xu Qingyan opened his eyes on the bed, wondering whether to go to Pei Muchan’s family home to be scolded or not.

...

Without being scolded, he feared it would be tough to get a decent compensation.

Taking a few scoldings wasn’t a big deal, after all, he was used to being scolded all over the internet.

Who in society hadn’t taken some abuse?

Pei Muchan woke up too, instinctively draping her leg over him and murmured something indistinctly.

Xu Qingyan couldn’t hear her clearly and had to lean in.

“Today…

let’s not go.”

“No way!” Xu Qingyan adamantly refused, “I think family is an inseparable part, even if they don’t welcome me, they are still your family.”

He was getting carried away, saying all kinds of nonsense.

“But…

you will…” Although Pei Muchan was touched, she still hesitated, “Let’s go back, back to Xinghai, let’s not stay here.”

“No need, I actually don’t mind.” He still wanted compensation and hoped Pei Muchan’s family could be more ferocious, best if they could just lash out directly.

Besides, Pei Muchan would also…

The world is just a giant conservation of energy, a quid pro quo.

“Let’s not, it’s a family dinner today, all those aunts and uncles will be there.” Pei Muchan shook her head, hugging Xu Qingyan and kissing him.

“We’re already doing well now, even if it’s just the two of us from now on….

Anyhow, it’s all good, as long as we’re together forever.”

Hearing this, Xu Qingyan turned over, positioning himself on top of her, looking at her seriously with his hands propped up.

“I understand everything you said, but, I don’t want the person I like to have any regrets.

I’m not afraid of facing the pressure, I’m just afraid that one day you’ll look back on this period…”

“I could have done something more, but didn’t.

Perhaps if I persisted, your parents might have relented?

Would things be completely different?”

In fact, what Xu Qingyan was thinking was…

scold me, come on, scold me!

Good and evil will have their rewards in the end, it doesn’t matter, after all, we’re here to earn sympathy points.

Best if they all collectively despise me, directly making a mint.

“Thank you.” Pei Muchan was somewhat moved, her eyes slightly moist.

Xu Qingyan wiped her tears for her, their gazes met, and as a result, they got up late again, delaying for a while.

It wasn’t until the afternoon that the two of them leisurely woke up.

After quickly eating something, they changed their clothes and set off for the banquet.

With the year-end approaching, the Pei family typically liked to have a reunion dinner at a hotel.

Different from the New Year’s Eve dinner, this was more like a family gathering banquet.

There were eight or nine tables in total, all showcasing the Pei family’s breadth.

Five or six tables for adults, while children squeezed into a few tables, the whole scene bustling with noise and excitement.

Even the always stern Father Pei was now smiling, chatting with his grandchildren.

“Come on, call grandpa.” Several middle-aged people said.

“Grandpa!” The children’s clear voices chorused.

Pei Huaiyi was overjoyed, couldn’t stop smiling, touched one child’s head, then another, from the eldest’s family, speaking kindly.

“Very good, very good.”

Until Father Pei looked up and saw his youngest daughter walking into the hall with Xu Qingyan.

His facial expression immediately dropped again.

But then he thought about yesterday’s words, “My Leader, My Regiment” was also written by that young man.

Although it didn’t feel quite right, begrudgingly admitting he had some talent.

Now he couldn’t affront him openly; otherwise, it would make him seem petty.

Seeing Pei Muchan bringing in a stranger, the relatives were stunned for a moment.

Then it dawned on them, could that be the Pei family’s unwelcome “son-in-law”?

“Xiao Chan, who have you brought with you?” Her cousin working at the procuratorate was the first to pick on Xu Qingyan, “Who is this object you found, and why didn’t you tell the family?”

Xu Qingyan kept a smile on his face, thinking that’s the spirit, that’s the taste of family.

“My name is Xu Qingyan, temporarily a…

screenwriter, and also Xiao Chan’s boyfriend, we….”

The questioning voices came in a steady stream, bit by bit attacking Xu Qingyan and Pei Muchan.

The tone wasn’t particularly harsh, but it wasn’t pleasant either, continuous and unending.

Pei Muchan’s expression was growing worse, while Xu Qingyan could barely contain a smile.

Just as Pei Muchan had made up her mind and was about to grab Xu Qingyan and leave, heading directly back to Xinghai to celebrate New Year’s there, Father Pei suddenly spoke up.

“Since you’re here, stay for a meal.”

Instantly, the adults at the seven or eight tables all fell silent, turning their heads to look at Father Pei.

The expressions on their faces varied, but almost all communicated one thought…

Wait, are you trying to be the good guy?

Damn, didn’t you say you wanted to persuade them to leave?

Did we really have to be so difficult with the young man during the New Year’s celebration?

Alright, alright.

Is this how you play it?

“Ha-ha, that’s right, it’s the New Year after all.” The older cousin started to use the Great Forgetting Technique, “It wasn’t easy for Xiao Xu to come all this way, right?”

“Yes, exactly, since he’s already here.”

“Let’s eat first, nothing is more important than eating.” The eldest, although not understanding Father Pei’s thoughts, quickly changed his tune, “Can we drink alcohol?”

Pei Muchan was baffled, and so was Xu Qingyan.

She pursed her lips, a slight smile finally appearing on her composed face.

Xu Qingyan blinked, his gaze ever so slightly losing its shine, as if something was amiss with the situation.

After having a meal and when Xu Qingyan was leaving, he couldn’t quite identify his feelings.

“I always feel it’s a bit strange.”

“Mhm.” Pei Muchan also found it odd, “But it’s definitely smoother than yesterday, so let’s not go tomorrow, let’s spend New Year’s in Shanxi, and just go there for the New Year’s Eve dinner.”

Since they were here already, based on this principle, Pei Muchan would either take Xu Qingyan straight back to Xinghai or have the New Year’s Eve dinner before leaving, initially planning just to eat and go.

Or to turn around and leave, but Father Pei’s attitude tonight made her think that it should be fine to have the New Year’s Eve dinner before leaving.

After all, it was just for these two days, since they were here already.

However, she certainly wasn’t going to take Xu Qingyan to meet them again; better to just wander around nearby sights to relax.

For two consecutive days, Xu Qingyan spent almost all day playing outside with Pei Muchan, and in the evenings returning to write scripts.

Or if it snowed, simply staying cozily in the room…

New Year’s Eve.

Xu Qingyan made a video call home, brushing it off slightly with work.

In the video, the figure of Li Yang flashed by, or appeared in the form of an off-camera voice.

Mom Zhang Hongmei wasn’t very adept with phones, but it was a good thing Li Yang was there.

“If you’re not coming back then forget it, having Li Yang here is good enough for me, I don’t need you.

You go and be busy, oh big busy person, not even coming home for New Year’s.”

Xu Qingyan felt embarrassed, only able to reply awkwardly.

“Next time, I’ll definitely come back next time.”

“Heh.”

The camera then moved to Li Yang, who mentioned a few recent events.

Village officials came to pay a New Year visit, even staff from the township.

In Qinghe area, there were not many celebrities to speak of.

Xu Qingyan managed to make a stand in Xinghai and even started his own company.

Between filming dramas and movies, he took a whole group of people out to work.

This kind of behavior, in Qinghe locality, was a genuinely capable person.

“Mhm, don’t worry, you don’t need to bother with it.” Xu Qingyan thought for a moment and then spoke, “No matter what they say, you just say you don’t know, that’s fine.”

“There will be people who handle it, don’t worry.”

“Okay, bro.” Li Yang nodded understandingly, then paused for a moment, “Bro, are you still in Xinghai?”

“No, I’m in Shanxi.”

“Oh, there’s Xuankong Temple, Mount Wutai, and other sites to see there,” Li Yang stuttered out a bunch, hastily concluding with a single phrase.

“Happy New Year, bro!”

After hanging up the video call, Xu Qingyan thought for a while, went downstairs, and made another call.

The end of the year was nearing, and it was just about time to head back to Xinghai.

The projects that needed to be addressed should be scheduled earlier.
