Reborn As Super Heiress

The whole nation watched, people from all provinces and regions were staring straight at their televisions, gathered in front of CCTV’s Spring Festival Gala, just to see how Huo Sining would handle the upcoming comedy skit.

The ratings climbed steadily, and the staff in the data monitoring room got excited seeing the line shoot up: ”It’s rising, it’s rising, Director, the ratings have gone back up!”

The director smiled and glanced at Han Wen, saying, ”How about that, my trick worked well, didn’t it? I never thought this Huo Sining would be so effective, she’s quite a talent!”

Han Wen nodded with a smile, but a sense of worry crept into his heart. Now that things had escalated so much, audiences nationwide knew that Huo Sining was replacing someone in the show. If she made any mistakes during her performance, she might be drowned out by the criticism from netizens.

Thinking of this, a sense of urgency emerged in Han Wen’s eyes and he watched the monitoring screen intently, frowning as he gazed at the program before the skit wrapped up, with two male and female hosts taking the stage.

Zhu Jun and Dong Qing exchanged a few words, then introduced the concept of a harmonious society. Shortly after, Dong Qing pointed to the stage behind her:

”The upcoming skit uses a common life event — unlocking a door — to illustrate this principle once more.”

Hearing Dong Qing say that the next program was a skit, those people sitting in front of their TVs couldn’t help but straighten up unconsciously.

Here it comes! The skit performed by Huo Sining, this is it!

Everyone’s eyes were wide open, staring unblinkingly at the screen.

The curtain opened, and the camera panned to the center of the stage, revealing a scene of a new home to everyone!

At the same time, a person appeared on stage, muttering to himself as he entered.

Those with sharp eyes immediately recognized him as the old staple of the Spring Festival Gala skits, the veteran skit actor — Qiao Kun.

”Happy New Year, friends. Old couples don’t take new wedding photos; wearing wedding dresses and tails is like wrapping a new cover over an old quilt. Oh, how advanced photography technology is now. Take my wife, who has a figure like ’Fei Fei.’ The photo turns out looking just like that Miss Magic, Huo Sining.”

As soon as this line was delivered, both on and off the TV, everyone burst into laughter. What does it mean to look like Miss Magic, Huo Sining?

It was then everyone noticed that in the new home scene, indeed a wedding photo hung there. The couple in it was indeed Qiao Kun and the previous Miss Magic, Huo Sining.

However, the picture had been modified, making Qiao Kun look younger while Huo Sining was dressed to look older, so the age gap between them didn’t appear so wide.

At this point, everyone felt reassured: the lines Qiao Kun just delivered were setting the stage for Huo Sining’s entrance. It seemed like this skit was indeed the one Huo Sining was to perform.

Many netizens were watching the live broadcast while checking Weibo comments and couldn’t help but question when seeing Qiao Kun appear:

”Huo Sining collaborating with Qiao Kun? Qiao Kun is known to be harsh and picky, and he let an outsider be a supporting role in his skit? Are you kidding? When did Qiao Kun become so easygoing?”

”I also find it a bit unbelievable. Besides, can Huo Sining hold the stage? Qiao Kun’s skits usually feature veteran actors, and their acting skills are incredibly impressive. Won’t Huo Sining ruin it by getting involved?”

Many fans on Weibo were worried about Huo Sining, and at this time, Qiao Kun was still muttering on stage.

It turned out Qiao Kun played a husband controlled tightly by his wife. On their wedding anniversary, Qiao Kun wanted to prepare a candlelit dinner to celebrate, but his wife had locked the money in a box, and she held the key with her. So Qiao Kun thought of calling an unlocking company.

The locksmith arrived, played by veteran skit actor Lin Yongjian. An anxious Qiao Kun greeted him, but the two got into a dispute because Qiao Kun couldn’t provide ID, property deed, or household register as these documents were locked in the box by his wife.

After a debate with the locksmith, Qiao Kun called in the property management, but neither the locksmith nor the property staff would compromise without valid identification, property deed, and household register.

The argument got messier, and explanations tangled, leaving Qiao Kun no choice but to call his wife back to handle it.

Everyone was now waiting because they knew Huo Sining was about to come on stage.

”Oh, women who frequently have beauty treatments make their husbands clingy like tails. Look, it’s been twenty years, and he’s still sticking around; can’t even part for a moment! Annoying!”

A woman dressed fashionably as a matronly figure walked out, muttering to herself as she walked, but her demeanor and speech radiated a certain mature allure.

Seeing this scene, everyone was a bit shocked: ”Is that still Miss Magic?”

”Whoa, she looks like a completely different person. This makeup artist is amazing, making Huo Sining look ten years older just like that!”

”It’s not just the face, right? It’s entirely because of Huo Sining’s acting. Look at the way she walks and talks — she’s nailing the stance and tone of a mature woman in her thirties or forties!”

At this time, Huo Sining had also walked to the center of the stage. Just now, she was still flaunting a mature woman’s charm, but her expression changed immediately upon seeing Qiao Kun, hands on her hips, and coldly asked, ”Nag, nag, you just know how to nag. What is so urgent that you have to call me back from afar?”

Seeing his wife return, Qiao Kun immediately went up with a flattering smile and said, ”Oh dear, you’re finally home, there’s something going on at the house.”

As he spoke, Qiao Kun pulled his wife to prove to the locksmith and property, but showing face didn’t work; the property and locksmith insisted on valid documents. This time Qiao Kun flipped out, asking his wife to get the key to open the box. Huo Sining, a bit confused but nonetheless searching, started rummaging through her bag for the key, but as she reached in, her expression froze, revealing a somewhat embarrassed and guilty quirky look.

”Oh no,” Huo Sining exclaimed in feigned surprise.

Beside her, Qiao Kun was startled and asked worriedly, ”What’s wrong?”

Huo Sining looked up, smiled sheepishly at Qiao Kun, and finally stammered, ”I lost the key!”

Qiao Kun was dumbfounded: ”Oh my gosh... how could you lose the key? You could lose money, lose things, even lose face, but how could you lose the key?”

Huo Sining seemed a bit displeased and said nonchalantly, ”Does it matter? Isn’t there an unlocking company downstairs? Call them to unlock it!”

The locksmith beside them chimed in, ”Hello, I’m from the unlocking company. Please provide your ID, property deed, household register, and other valid documents!”

Full circle, back to square one; seeing this, the audience below laughed until they were dizzy.
