Chapter 4: The Passerby Who is Often Ignored in Romance Variety Shows



The Yao family is a famous united family, but Mr. Yao only had one son and one daughter in his life.

The daughter is unruly and quite shrewd. When she grew up, she did not inherit the family business and help her brother manage the company. Instead, she plunged into the entertainment industry.

He has been making TV and movies for decades and has been doing well. He is also a person with a say in their circle.

Mr. Yao didn't say anything.

The daughter ran out like a set bird to pursue her dreams, and the son became the first choice to inherit the family business.

He took over the baton from his father steadily and worked diligently for more than 20 years.

Well, my son has grown up, so I passed the baton to him, and I and my wife started living a wonderful life of traveling and seeing the beautiful scenery.

Logically speaking, the Yao family has no troubles. While others are fighting to the death for the family property, the Yao brothers and sisters have a very good relationship.

The brothers and sisters are in harmony, and the third generation has an heir, but the family is not living a happy life.

The population is small!

During the war, the old man had more than one son and one daughter, but the others did not survive, and in the end only these two were left.

My daughter has a wild temper!

They are as wild and lively as monkeys, and are not subject to any control at all.

In order to pursue the so-called dream, I fought hard on the front line of my ideals and was a staunch celibate.

Compared to her, a man in his forties who is about to enter his fifties is making great progress in his successful career.

A blade of grass will not grow under the knees. In short, you don’t have children. Don’t rely on your mother for marriage. Live a free and easy life. After struggling for half a lifetime, you are still single.

Old man Yao has been angry for decades because his daughter refused to get married, but it's all in vain.

When he wakes up in the middle of the night, he often holds the hand of his old wife beside him. People often say that men don't shed tears easily, but the old man often wipes his tears secretly behind his children's backs at night.

The only thing that comforted the old man was that his daughter was rebellious and his son was obedient.

When asked to take over the family business, he did so without hesitation. When asked to get married and have children, he did so obediently.

Later, Yao Shuyan was born. He was the only grandson of the third generation of the Yao family. The old man was a relative of the next generation. He was indifferent to his daughter and had a bad temper towards his son.

To his only grandson, the old man would give him the moon rather than the stars, and loved him so much. When he was young, the old man let his good grandson ride on a big horse, and personally taught him together with his wife.

What the old man was most proud of in his life was not that he had created a family business, but that he had raised such an outstanding heir. He was satisfied with everything except one thing.

"Yanyan, your aunt told me that you were going to participate in a dating variety show at the beginning of the month."

The old man put down his bowl and began to talk about the same old things.

"Don't forget to perform well on the variety show. If you meet a girl you like, be sweet and coax her when you should, and do what you should do. Don't be like your aunt who wasted all these years and didn't bring your grandfather a son-in-law."

When this was mentioned, the parties sitting at the big round table hadn't said a word yet, but the old man started humming in hatred.

The old man who never looks at his daughter and likes to look at her with a squint, can't make his daughter angry, but when he looks at his eldest grandson, he teaches him with great kindness.

He said he didn't want to bring up this topic during the meal, but he had to calmly put down the bowl under his grandfather's seemingly kind but actually reluctant gaze.

Yao Shuyan, with his shirt neatly pressed, and the man nicknamed Yanyan nodded to show that he understood.

Yao Qian adapted well to her father's indifferent attitude.

Isn’t it just that you’re not married?

As a new woman in the new era, is it really a big mistake to not be married and have no children?

Of course, she couldn't talk back like that in public. As the saying goes, "A friend's death is not the fault of the poor." For her own happiness, Ms. Yao Qian could only bear the pain and push the blame onto her nephew.

"Dad, don't you know that your daughter has found a top-notch girl for your grandson this time? It's this one!"

As he spoke, he walked back and forth in front of the family with his thumbs up.

The parents of the person who is being urged to get married, Mr. and Mrs. Yao, are well aware of how to survive in the gap between the two sides. They just act invisible, don't talk, don't look up, and just eat.

Grandma Yao is not a talkative person.

So it goes without saying that the person who answered was Grandpa Yao, who hoped that his grandson would get married soon.

He is almost 20 years old, shouldn’t the old man be anxious?

"If that's really the case, then Yanyan will work harder and try her best to bring back a granddaughter-in-law for grandpa this time."

"Grandpa treats his daughter well. He gives her a house, a car, and money."

"Grandpa owns several cruise ships. Don't you young people like to go out to sea? When you get married, Grandpa will give them to you and your wife so you can spend your honeymoon at sea."

Seeing that his words were getting more and more outrageous, Yao Shuyan had to speak up and interrupt his grandfather's beautiful fantasy.

"Grandpa, I'm not old, there's no rush, no rush."

There's no need to rush. The old man with a scowl on his beard slammed the chopsticks in his hand on the table.

With a snap, the autocratic temperament of a feudal patriarch emerged spontaneously.

"I don't care. Whether you like it or not, just go on this dating variety show and treat it like a blind date."

"I heard from Qianqian that the four girls this time are all good. You have to bring one back to me. Otherwise, when you come back, you have to go on a blind date with me!"

Yao Shuyan couldn't figure out how shabby his grandfather was. Would a woman be enough?

He is not even thirty yet, which is the golden period for a man to make his career. Is it so important for him not to work hard to expand his career, get married, have children, and carry on the family line?

Of course it is important!

Yao Qian knew that her family was small, so she was willful and did not have children, and her brother and sister-in-law only had one child.

Yao Qian doesn't have any children of her own, and she wishes her nephew would have seven or eight children. All the money she earns will be spent on her nephews and grandchildren in the future.

"Yanyan, your grandfather is right. Auntie also hopes that you can find a suitable woman to spend your life with through this dating show."

"You're not young anymore. Don't resist. Those girls are all good. Besides, our family has grown so much that we don't need you to marry into a family to expand our family business."

"Instead of resisting, why not just treat it as a way to make friends? You might just meet someone you're looking for."

Listening to his aunt's advice, Yao Shuyan sighed secretly and regretted that he should not have been soft-hearted in investing.

Now, because of the lack of people, my aunt has taken me to the program crew to take the blame.

You have to know that he is the sponsor of the show Are We in Love? Is there any sponsor as humble as me?
