Rebirth in Showbiz: How to Win the Showbiz Emperor's Heart?-Chapter 417: It Was Actually Him

On the second day of the new year, after paying respects to the ancestors, the visits to relatives and friends commence.

There aren’t many relatives left on the Su Family’s side. In their memory, there’s no trace of the grandmother’s existence, and their mother never mentioned her. The grandparents have some impression, as Father Su came from a rural background and established the Su Group from scratch.

After Father Su became successful, he naturally didn’t forget his roots. He wanted to bring Old Mrs. Su and Mr. Su to enjoy life with him, but they couldn’t handle it for more than a few days before returning to the countryside.

Ultimately, with no contact for so many years, the emotions are gone, and besides, in Tong Yan’s impression, they’re not easy to get along with.

The siblings figured they didn’t have many relatives left, so they decided to visit Father’s old friend, Zhao Qingping, Uncle Zhao.

Zhao Qingping was quite a figure in his day. In his youth, he joined the organized crime world and fought his way to the position of a hall master. Later, during a gang fight, he risked his life to save the crime boss, who then relied heavily on him. When the boss retired, Zhao Qingping took over, leading his men to transform into a security company, and now he runs it vigorously.

In reality, the divide between the underworld and the legitimate world isn’t that distinct. Some legitimate figures seek assistance from the underworld, while the underworld offers favors to the legitimate world. Hence, Zhao Qingping’s network is extensive, ranging from high-ranking officials to street vendors, and he has his own intelligence sources.

As for why her father knew someone so impressive, Tong Yan still has no clue; it’s a mystery.

The siblings brought generous gifts to the Zhao Family.

The Zhao Family lives in the suburbs, in a large traditional courtyard with intense ancient charm.

As soon as they walked in, they felt a palpable cold and solemn atmosphere.

They waited at the entrance for a short while before Zhao Qingping personally came out.

He’s a tall and big man, maintaining a strong build despite his age, exuding strength.

Tong Yan glanced at her foolish brother and silently turned away; the difference is too vast.

Seeing them, Zhao Qingping smiled, "Yan and Chenxi are here, huh? It’s been years. What made you think of visiting me?"

Tong Yan replied graciously, "Busy with acting, flying to all corners of the world. As soon as I had free time, I came to see Uncle Zhao."

Zhao Qingping laughed heartily, with a loud laugh, "Yan’s acting is quite good. I watched ’Apocalypse’ in its entirety. By the way, when will ’Survival in the Wilderness’ shoot its second season? I’ve been eagerly following it. Every time I see Yan acting foolishly, it delights me."

Tong Yan: ...

If not for the last sentence, she could take it entirely as a compliment.

Zhao Qingping continued, "By the way, my youngest son acted alongside you in ’Apocalypse’, playing Fu An. Do you remember?"

The actor for Fu An is Zhao Yongnian.

Aside from Zhao Qingping’s career highlights, he’s famously known for having an eye for beauty. Currently, he has a wife and several mistresses kept around, all without chaos, which he seems to enjoy.

So Zhao Yongnian is Uncle Zhao’s youngest son?

No impression at all.

If they knew each other, then why did he set her up?

"Dad."

A voice came from behind, prompting her to turn around, where Zhao Yongnian stood not far away.

Tong Yan raised her eyebrows, "Long time, no see."

Zhao Yongnian smiled, "It has indeed been a long time. Little Fatty, you’ve been quite prominent lately."

She walked up to him, not losing any momentum as she faced his six-foot height, "Stop with the sarcastic tones. You and I know well what you did. Aren’t you afraid of me telling Uncle Zhao?"
