Characters of Kinship (TV series)

This article contains character information for the Singaporean Chinese family drama series Kinship.

Chen Anping is 55 years old and is married to Meiqi; they have three adopted daughters: Jinsha, Yinsha and Yusheng. Still playful despite his age, Chen Anping is a jovial man who enjoys picking up new things and can often be seen playing with a Game Boy often in the show.

He may mingle and joke effortlessly with his customers and foot reflexology disciples but when the time comes to impart his self-discovered theories and skills in foot reflexology, the man is dead serious. To him, foot reflexology is a service to the people and thus he disagrees with Anxin's method of business.

It was later revealed that Anping once had a child with Lishi. Lishi wants Anping to be with her but Anping refused, forcing Lishi to cause trouble in his family. Lishi later drop the charges against Jinsha, forcing Anping into a lot of stress. Anping finally decided to go with Lishi as he had no choice. Lishi then tells Meiqi and Da Ying Jia's staff that Anping is leaving Meiqi for her, even saying that he was exchanging himself for Meiqi and the three children's happiness. She later waited at the airport for Anping but he did not show up as Anping has made himself missing. To obtain evidence that can help exonerate Yusheng, Anping eventually give in to Lishi; she drop all charges against Yusheng.

Meiqi then pulls out from the love triangle after Lishi buys over half the foot reflexology business. Zhongshang is impressed with Meiqi's kindness and magnanimity and decides to woo her. Even though Anping is with Lishi, he still cannot forget Meiqi; thus, the relationship among the four becomes even more complicated.

Chen Anping is played by Yao Wenlong.

On the surface, it might appear that the superstitious Lin Meiqi leaves all decision-making to her husband Chen Anping, but in actuality, she's a tough cookie whose strong nature and straightforwardness makes her the No.1 in the family.

Unhappy with her husband's soft tolerance towards his brother Chen Anxin, Meiqi stamps her feet down and plots to have Anxin kidnapped on the grand opening day of yet another Da Ying Jia branch to show the latter up.
