Falling in Love on a Variety Show with My Freebie Husband

[New Novel: Pretty Beauty Goes Viral with Her Child on a Parenting Variety Show. Click the author's column to read~

After waking up from a car accident, Xu Qinzhou looked at the child in front of him, standing in punishment and too afraid to speak, pitifully calling him "Daddy." Taking in the unfamiliar surroundings, he fell into thought.

He had transmigrated into the body of a villainous father who had unscrupulously worked his way into the bed of a top-tier star, gotten pregnant, and used the baby to force the star into marriage, then cruelly abused the child until he became withdrawn and timid.

His husband had married him out of a sense of duty, treating him coldly and keeping his distance. He thought Xu Qinzhou was uneducated and ignorant. After the child abuse came to light, his husband kicked him out, the whole internet doxxed and vilified him, and he eventually died miserably on the street.

"Daddy?" The child called to him in fear, shrinking back, his small, thin body trembling all over.

Xu Qinzhou: Who could bear to make such an adorable child cry?

"Baby, Daddy wants to hug and kiss you!"

The child looked at him timidly, then shrank away in alarm.

Looking at the small, pitiful child, Xu Qinzhou's heart melted.

He decided to quietly make money and do his duty as a good father, setting an example for his little one.

The child was too thin, so he studied childcare and made nutritious meals.

When the child caught a fever, he raced to the hospital like a madman.

The cheerful child: "Daddy! Kiss!"

When Gu Chenming video-called his legally wedded "wife" again, the man was gentle and considerate, dressed with artistic flair, and seemed just like the perfect wife in his mind.

Looking at that face that made his heart race and cheeks burn, he turned his camera away.

One day, the family of three became a trending topic.

The whole country learned that the top-tier star had secretly married and had an adorable five-year-old!

Doubts flooded in at once:

[Look at the three of them, they're not close at all. Are they just hired actors?]

[It has to be fake. How could our beloved star ever be interested in him?]

But then the cameras turned to the two of them...

Other families' style:

[Oh my god, they're so strict with their kid. The poor thing is crying from feeling wronged.]

["They're actually pretty well-behaved."]

His family's style:

[Cheng Cheng and Zhouzhou are performing a famous piece together at a concert!]

[Are they trying out being tour guides at a museum? (Trying to steal them right out in the open!)]

[Waaah, come here and let Auntie hug you!]

During an interview, Xu Qinzhou said nervously, "It's my first time being a dad, so there are a lot of childcare things I don't know..."

Comments: [It's okay, wifey. Just have another one!]

The show became a huge hit, and fans dug up the fact that Xu Qinzhou was a famous investor in S City!

While Xu Qinzhou was livestreaming, Gu Chenming suddenly came in, pointed at the news and showed it to him, then leaned by the door and tilted his head. "Care to explain?"

Xu Qinzhou's eyes darted away. "You believe gossip?"

"Hmph." Gu Chenming pulled out the evidence, lifted Xu Qinzhou up so they were forced to look each other in the eye, and asked in a low voice, "What about now?"

Xu Qinzhou: "...Listen to me make excuses!"

"Too late."

The livestream went black in an instant, and the audio cut out too.

Comments: [?!!]

Gu Chenming: [Supporting the national second-child policy. Do not disturb.]

Comments: [...!! What could possibly be hidden from me, a distinguished member?]

Here's a preview of an upcoming story~

Xie Li is the fake young master of a wealthy family. After the real young master returns, his friends form a clique and ostracize him, his childhood friend no longer favors him, his fiance is all lovey-dovey with the real young master, and even the parents who always doted on him change their minds.

Xie Li puts up with it again and again, until he faints from donating blood before joining a travel variety show and learns he has less than a year to live.

Xie Li: Damn it! He's had enough!

With his spoiled-young-master attitude, Xie Li has offended plenty of people. He's a universally disliked, useless pretty face. In the past, he could rely on his family's power and no one dared mess with him. After his background is exposed, everyone takes a turn kicking him while he's down.

But after the travel show begins airing:

His childhood friend rushes to the filming location just to make the real young master smile, saying he only befriended Xie Li because of their family backgrounds.

Xie Li eats watermelon. "When you got bitten by a dog and hid behind me, begging me to protect you, why didn't you say you were being forced then? Who's the one who's scared of even teacup dogs now?"

Childhood friend: ?

Netizens: ?

Real young master: ?

His fiance declares online that he's breaking off their engagement and will compete fairly with his childhood friend for the real young master. He even says Xie Li was the one who relentlessly pursued him in the first place.

Xie Li sneers. "What is this, a Mary Sue story? Back then, I got into a minor car accident, and my grandpa dragged you over to bring me good luck. If it weren't for me, would your family company have gone public? After I woke up, I said no, but who was the one pouring out his heartfelt feelings? I've got the video!"

Viewers: This is... thrilling. Wiping nosebleed.jpg

Fiance: **

Real young master: ?

An actor who had worked with Xie Li insinuates that he's stupid, has no acting skills, and relies entirely on eye drops.

Xie Li laughs. "You're the most incredible actor I've ever met. You can spend all night discussing the script with the director just to prepare for a role. Who's more dedicated than you, the entertainment industry's beloved drama king?"

Some director: **

Some actor: The sky is falling...

Netizens: T-that's some huge gossip! Bro, do you have a death wish?

After going off the rails every day, Xie Li sighs. "I really wasted my life before!"

What was supposed to be a travel variety show has been turned into a feast of gossip by Xie Li:

Viewers:

"Bro, the only bro in the entertainment industry, got anything good for us today?"

"I'm done for. I hold my phone and grin like an idiot every day. My mom says I'm crazy. Yellow face covering its ears.jpg"

"Welcome to the Insanity Club! Extroverts and socially anxious introverts, come and lose your minds together!"

After filming several episodes, Xie Li suddenly faints.

Then the viewers in the livestream hear the doctor say sternly, "You're unbelievable, taking a two-month-old baby up mountains and down to the sea..."

Viewers: Gossip, the real big gossip!

Xie Li: Lets out a piercing scream!

What happened to his terminal illness? What happened to his innocence? Whose kid is this, anyway?!

The celebrity guest standing outside the door, who opened the hospital room door just in time to hear everything, is the Best Actor Lu Junian: "..."

If he goes in, will his public image come crashing down?

Core theme: Be self-reliant and learn to treat others sincerely.
