School Beauty's Invincible Martial Expert-Chapter 399 - : Brother Haonan

Chapter 399: Chapter 399: Brother Haonan

Jiang Xiaoqing’s mind was scrambled, her hands firmly gripping the steering wheel as she kept driving forward.

Xiao Han remained silent, seriously observing Jiang Xiaoqing’s driving. He knew that her mood must be very chaotic right now. However, it also showed that she was not a frivolous woman; she indeed had her own inevitable hardships.

As long as Jiang Xiaoqing remained silent, Xiao Han also refrained from speaking. Xiao Han’s lips curled into a smile as he lay back in the passenger seat, seriously driving his own car. Then, he focused his eyes straight ahead, on the road.

Soon, the car arrived at the TV station.

The security guard at the gate hurriedly ran out from the security booth. Social vehicles were not allowed inside the TV station. This black BMW Car did not have any press markings or passes. Therefore, the security had to come out personally to inquire.

As the car window rolled down, the security immediately saw Jiang Xiaoqing, startled, he awkwardly said, “Oh, it’s… it’s Anchor Jiang. I… I’ll open the gate right away!”

...

Having said that, he hurriedly raised the boom barrier and used the remote controller. Curiously, he glanced at Xiao Han, well interested in the relationship between Xiao Han and Jiang Xiaoqing. However, he only dared to look once.

Jiang Xiaoqing ignored him, pressing down hard on the accelerator.

After the car stopped, Xiao Han immediately got out.

Jiang Xiaoqing glanced at him, her face expressionless as she said, “Follow me!”

The attitude was still somewhat better, at least much better than before. Xiao Han nodded slightly, saying, “Lead the way.”

Jiang Xiaoqing nodded slightly. She immediately led Xiao Han inside. Once inside, Xiao Han’s lips curved into a smile, he grinned and then said, “How many programs are there for today’s rehearsal?”

“More than twenty,” Jiang Xiaoqing finally revealed a smile, then said, “I’ll take you to the makeup room. You go get your makeup done first; I’ll try to find a Guzheng for you!”

“Okay!” Xiao Han nodded.

The performance had been already deeply planned in his heart. He had a preliminary structure in mind. The program Xiao Han was going to participate in was not just any program, but a traditional Chinese program exuding ancient charm: Guzheng.

Of course, Xiao Han’s program was not only about playing Guzheng but was a combination of traditional Chinese performances.

Backstage was very busy. Jiang Xiaoqing personally brought a man in and found the makeup director, specifically requesting the director to do Xiao Han’s makeup, a privilege not commonplace. Many men in the program team looked at Xiao Han with envious eyes, seeming very displeased with him.

Jiang Xiaoqing was considered a belle of the TV station, many men drooled over her. Many hoped to pursue her. Sadly, Jiang Xiaoqing had very high standards, and ordinary people simply could not catch her eye. There were many wealthy and influential suitors, but she was not interested in them. Some male reporters and staff at the station also harbored feelings for her, yet they still couldn’t catch her eye. To Jiang Xiaoqing, these men were too ordinary, too vulgar. Simply not qualified to date her. However, it was exactly this mindset that led her on the path of remaining single.

As a result, there were rumors at the TV station that Jiang Xiaoqing was a lesbian. Jiang Xiaoqing did not want to bother with these rumors. As for what she was, let them gossip. After all, she didn’t want to cause controversy; let them spread rumors.

Xiao Han sat down on the chair, ready to get his makeup done. The makeup director hurriedly said, “Hey, hey, sit over here. Is that where you should be sitting?”

Xiao Han was taken aback and asked, “Didn’t Jiang Xiaoqing tell me to sit here?”

“That’s Brother Nan’s seat,” the director glared at Xiao Han; the woman was clearly a snob, she coldly looked at Xiao Han and then said, “Hurry up and get up, Brother Nan is coming soon!”

As they spoke, a handsome and attractive man walked in. Xiao Han recognized him at once. This man was an anchor at the TV station, quite a leading figure. A man among men, most of the TV station’s programs were hosted by him, and he was very popular. He had a promising future. He was also the most watched man in the station, not only handsome but also from a good family background, both parents university professors. Many female anchors wished they could date Haonan.

Unfortunately, it seemed Li Haonan only liked Jiang Xiaoqing. But while the fallen blossoms are willing, the flowing water is heartless. The blossoms were always troubled by the flowing water.

“Brother Nan, hello!”

“Brother Nan, have you arrived?”

In the makeup room, everyone stood up. Only Xiao Han remained sitting in the makeup director’s chair, waiting for his makeup. Li Haonan greeted everyone politely, and they all liked him very much. They practically wanted to cling to him.

“You are?” Li Haonan looked at Xiao Han in astonishment.

“Oh…” Xiao Han gave a faint smile and then said, “I’m here for makeup.”

“You move aside.” Although Li Haonan had a smile on his face, his eyes conveyed a profound disdain as he said, “This seat is mine, you are not qualified to do your makeup here!”

“Is that so?” Upon hearing this, Xiao Han couldn’t help but be inwardly delighted, “It’s not up to you to decide whether I’m qualified, is it?”

“Of course, it is!” Li Haonan nodded.

“To think that such a big TV station is run by someone who just sells their looks?” Xiao Han immediately mocked sarcastically.

“You!” Upon hearing this, Li Haonan instantly became aggravated, “What do you mean by that?”

“I mean, you sell your face!” Xiao Han replied indifferently, then disdainfully added, “You’re not much different from those ducks who sell their butts. Of course, if I have to point out a difference, your method of selling is somewhat more upscale. But those people are just too blatant.”

“You!” Li Haonan’s face turned iron blue.

Hiss…

Inside the makeup room, everyone gasped in shock. Li Haonan trembled with rage. He had no idea where this shameless guy had sprung from. And now he had the audacity to talk back, which made him furious. Li Haonan struggled to find words; after all, he was an anchor, a host, and couldn’t curse outright. So, after great effort, he couldn’t come up with anything to say, and finally, he roared, “Get out!”

“And what gives you the right to tell me to get out?” Xiao Han, sitting on the chair and crossing his legs, said, “I heard that because of your good looks, many wealthy ladies in the provincial city have kept you as a gigolo. That Mercedes convertible you’re driving now, wasn’t it bought for you by one of these wealthy ladies? Heh heh…”

“What nonsense are you spouting!” Li Haonan was shocked upon hearing this. How could anyone know about this? He did indeed appear quite alarmed.

The reason Xiao Han knew this was from a casual chat with Li Xiaoya. Li Xiaoya frequented the circles of wealthy ladies in the provincial city. She knew some of the dirty dealings there. These wealthy ladies didn’t lack money and liked to spend lavishly on maintaining handsome young men. In their world, it wasn’t just about comparing money, diamond rings, shoes, bags… There was also competition over who had the most handsome young man, the most famous young man.

And Li Haonan was the object of these wealthy ladies’ competition.

This matter had long been exposed among the circle of wealthy ladies, but was little known in the circle of journalists, and even if someone knew, no one dared to speak out. After all, Li Haonan was the starlet of the Provincial TV Station. He was quite the celebrity, and nobody dared to offend him. Even the station director had to give him some leeway.

“You know very well what I’m talking about!” Xiao Han said with contempt.

“Get out!” Li Haonan’s face turned ashen; he felt extremely vulnerable, fearing that Xiao Han indeed knew some true secrets. If exposed, it could be the end for him. Thus, Xiao Han’s presence was like a ticking time bomb to him.

“Why should I leave?” Xiao Han smiled faintly, saying, “It should be the one who sells his butt who should leave!”

It was only selling a face before, but now, it had escalated to selling a butt. This was indeed an insult to any man. Li Haonan was almost on the verge of a breakdown, almost exploding with anger. He breathed heavily, quivering with anger, pointing at Xiao Han without being able to speak.

“You! You!” Li Haonan ranted for a while, crying out, “It’s either you or me today.”

Some people realized the seriousness of the situation.

“Quick, go call the security, throw this reckless kid out!” the makeup director urgently shouted.

A few makeup artists hurriedly ran out. Before long, five or six security guards rushed in. The security guards glared menacingly at Xiao Han, then shouted, “Kid, you’d better roll out of here right now, or don’t blame us for being rude.”

Xiao Han glanced at them and said disdainfully, “Fine, I’m leaving. It’s not that I’m afraid of you, but that I disdain to associate with you.”

Having said that, Xiao Han was about to dust off his pants and leave.

Just then, Jiang Xiaoqing walked in from outside and saw the situation. She hurriedly asked, “What’s going on here?”

“I’m leaving,” Xiao Han said with a smile.

“No, you can’t. You’re specifically mentioned by the director for the program, how can you leave?” Jiang Xiaoqing quickly stopped Xiao Han.

In the makeup room, everyone was taken aback. Xiao Han was actually named by Director Zhao for the New Year’s program, this was indeed shocking. At this point, Li Haonan hurriedly asked, “Xiaoqing, who is this guy? He just insulted and humiliated me, we can’t just let this go.”

Jiang Xiaoqing glanced at Li Haonan, and disdainfully said, “He is Xiao Han, a student from Shuimu University. During the National Day, Director Zhao had already named Xiao Han to participate in the recording of the New Year’s program.”
