Top-tier Auntie in the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 84

Song Anan had never realized before that Pei Kuang was so adept at sweet talk - he made it seem effortless.

She smiled and lowered her head. "You don't need to protect me. I've been practicing boxing lately and can handle myself."

On the recommendation of a senior sister, Song Anan had recently developed an interest in boxing. She had gone to the gym to try it out a few times and found it quite enjoyable. She planned to go regularly from now on as a way to exercise.

Pei Kuang quirked an eyebrow, suddenly recalling the young girl's formidable strength.

Three years ago she had been able to subdue two grown men barehanded. Now that she was also learning to box, her strength was likely even greater.

He shrugged. "Alright then, you can protect me instead."

Song Anan was a little confused. "Me protect you?"

Pei Kuang laughed lightly. "What, you can't do it?"

Song Anan shook her head. It wasn't that she couldn't do it, she just wondered if he would mind.

Pei Kuang asked casually, "Why do you think I would mind?"

Song Linchuan answered honestly, "Because Linchuan minds a lot. I told him I could protect him too, but he said it's humiliating to be protected by a girl."

The corners of Pei Kuang's eyes turned up slightly. "Can you compare me to him?"

Song Anan was completely bewildered. How were they different?

Pei Kuang said stubbornly, "It's my own girlfriend protecting me, what's humiliating about that? It's not some other girl."

Song Anan: "......"

If Song Linchuan had been there, he definitely would have scolded him for being shameless!

By that logic, he was protected by his own aunt, so he should be even more humiliated.

"I'm also curious about something," Pei Kuang stared at Song Anan with a smile. "How did you know I have six-pack abs?"

Song Anan was startled, her gaze involuntarily shifting away.

Pei Kuang looked at her playfully, exaggerating, "You didn't peep at me in the shower, did you?!"

Song Anan was dumbfounded. Who, who peeped at his shower?!

Her face flushed red to her earlobes. "Don't talk nonsense, I did not!"

Pei Kuang uttered an "Oh," and continued teasing her on purpose, "Then how do you explain this?"

Song Anan was silent for a few seconds before mumbling, "It was when I checked your injuries at the hospital. I saw them then."

Pei Kuang said casually, "So you took advantage of checking my wounds as an excuse to take liberties with me."

Song Anan was a little angry from his teasing. She pushed against his chest with both hands. "Anyway, I saw it already, think what you want!"

She couldn't help grumbling, "If you don't let me see again, fine, next time I'll just look at someone else!"

"Who are you going to look at?" A dangerous glint flashed through Pei Kuang's eyes.

Song Anan still didn't sense the danger. "Who can't I look at? There are many fit young men at the gym."

In fact, she didn't know if there were or not. She had just heard it from that senior sister.

"Young men?" Pei Kuang suddenly pulled her into his arms, biting off each word next to her ear, "Don't even think about it!"

The warm breath grazing her ear made Song Anan's heart tremble involuntarily.

She pushed against his chest with both hands, speaking a little nervously. "You're being unreasonable..."

But Pei Kuang didn't even let her finish before interrupting, "Who said I won't let you see again?"

He then pulled her hand under his shirt, pressing it against his abs. "I'll not only let you see, but feel too!"

Song Anan: "......"

Song Linchuan had just returned from filming out of town. As soon as he got off the plane, he sent Song Anan a message:

"Little auntie, I've landed. Are you off work yet? Don't forget we're going to your school tonight."

How could Song Anan possibly forget?

Ever since Qi Mushishi had visited their school last time, Song Linchuan had sent her a message every day, starting the countdown to his return.

About an hour later, Song Anan rode her electric scooter into the residential complex, heading straight home.

As soon as she got in the door, she saw Song Linchuan sitting in the living room, looking all ready to head out at a moment's notice.

"Wait a minute, I need to go feed Qi Qi at Pei Kuang's house first. We'll leave after I get back." Song Anan said.

It just so happened that Pei Kuang was away for a promotional event these couple of days. He wasn't home now, so the task of caring for Qi Qi naturally fell on her.

Song Anan put down her backpack and went to the kitchen to grab an express box. It contained some treats she had bought for Qi Qi recently that she wanted the little guy to try.

When Song Linchuan heard this, he perked up and stood up from the sofa directly.

"Feeding the cat huh? I'll go with you. It's been so long since I've seen the little rascal, I wonder if it misses me or not."

Song Anan hesitated. Her mind raced, wondering if there was anything at Pei Kuang's house that would give them away.

But perhaps from nervousness, her mind drew a blank.

She hesitated. "It's probably not good for you to go. Pei Kuang isn't home."

But Song Linchuan waved it off unconcernedly. "No problem, I'll let him know."

He then sent Pei Kuang a message.

Not long after, Song Linchuan showed his phone to Song Anan. "See, he replied saying it's okay."

Now Song Anan was out of excuses and could only steel herself to take him over, feeling anxious the whole way there.

Luckily, nothing went wrong in the end. She hadn't left any personal belongings at Pei Kuang's place that would need explaining.

She poured some cat food for Qi Qi, changed his water, and lastly scooped the litter box.

As usual, Qi Qi was cold towards Song Linchuan, always keeping his backside facing him.

Song Linchuan clicked his tongue. "This damn cat is so unlikeable, just like his owner, hateful!"

Song Anan had wanted to defend Qi Qi at first, but hearing him mention Pei Kuang, she involuntarily felt guilty.

"It's getting late, didn't you say you were hungry? Let's go quickly."

After feeding the cat, the two returned home briefly to get the car keys and dining card from her bag.

Arriving at the parking spot, Song Linchuan excitedly hopped on the back of the electric scooter.

"Let's go, little auntie. Take me for a ride."

Song Anan was very helpless. She didn't know what was so attractive about her little scooter that everyone seemed to love it.

She rode the scooter through the guard station. Seeing Song Anan from afar, the guard uncle had already opened the gate for them.

The scooter steadily cruised down the road after leaving the residential area.

It was early autumn and a light breeze blew.

This was Song Linchuan's first time riding an electric scooter. The passing scenery, gentle wind, everything felt completely different than sitting in a car.

"Little auntie, do you think I could learn to ride this?" Song Linchuan asked.

Song Anan didn't turn back. Her voice unintentionally rose a bit. "You can ride a bike, so it should be pretty easy."

"Why don't I teach you a bit later if we find an empty stretch of road?" she suggested.

Song Linchuan was clearly interested. "Really?"

Song Anan replied, "What's there to prevent it? It's not that hard."

Up ahead was a small road with no one on it. She stopped the scooter directly and began teaching Song Linchuan how to ride.

The scooter was very simple to operate. Basically just twist the handlebar and it would move. Song Linchuan got the hang of it quickly and was riding quite steadily. He even had Song Anan take several pictures of him.

"Little auntie, I want to ride it a bit more." Song Linchuan had clearly gotten addicted.

Since they weren't in a rush, and this road was empty, Song Anan let him keep riding while she followed behind.

But after Song Linchuan rode a few meters this time, he suddenly jerked to a halt. No matter how he fiddled with it, it wouldn't budge.

Song Anan walked quickly up to him. "Why did you stop?"

Song Linchuan turned back to look at her, also confused. "It won't move."

Song Anan was taken aback. She had Song Linchuan get off and tried it herself, but no matter how she twisted the handlebar, the electric scooter showed no reaction.

"Could it be out of battery?" Song Linchuan said.

Song Anan shook her head. "It shouldn't be. I charged it fully before coming."

Based on her past experience, a full charge could last at least two to three days. It was impossible for the battery to drain so quickly.

Given the situation, there was only one possibility - the scooter was broken.

The aunt and nephew looked at each other.

Neither had imagined the scooter might break down.

Song Linchuan asked Song Anan, "What should we do now?"

Should they go straight home or still head to her school?

Song Anan was also encountering this problem for the first time. She scratched her head.

Both places were about equidistant from here. They finally decided to stick with the original plan. Pushing the scooter back would be the same either way.

Song Anan was going to push the scooter, but Song Linchuan refused to let her do so, of course.

So, the two of them, one pushing the cart, the other walking beside, continued on their way to B University.

Aunt and nephew had not seen each other for a long time, and naturally had endless things to talk about, so the journey was far from boring.

Song Linchuan looked troubled as he suddenly said, "Auntie, do you know how exaggerated Zhao is?"

Song Anan responded with an "Ah," and said, "What's wrong with sister-in-law this time? Did she introduce you to another girlfriend?"

Song Linchuan sighed and said, "No, not this time."

"But she actually asked me if I like men!"

Song Anan burst out laughing, "What did you say to that?"

Song Linchuan said helplessly, "What could I say, of course I denied it."

Song Anan shook her head with a smile.

Ever since Song Linchuan passed 25, his sister-in-law had been urging him to get married for some reason, though she hadn't actually done anything, just verbal pestering.

After walking for about 20 minutes, the two finally arrived at B University, pushing the cart along.

Song Anan found a place to park the electric scooter, then took Song Linchuan around B University.

Since they didn't have the scooter, they didn't go far, just walked around a bit before choosing a nearby cafeteria.

Song Linchuan finally got to eat the food at the B University cafeteria, eagerly taking lots of pictures to show off on social media later.

Given Song Linchuan was a public figure, the two of them had been very low-key the whole way, wearing hats and masks, and avoiding crowded areas.

Even at the cafeteria, Song Anan had taken him to a private room on the 3rd floor.

At first, they weren't too worried about being photographed, at most it would just cause some online buzz like what happened with Pei Kuang.

Even if they were recognized by a few people on campus, it wasn't a big deal. Photos online take time to gain traction, and by then they would have left already.

This time gap ensured they wouldn't attract swarms of media and fans, so it was fine.

But just as they left the cafeteria, Song Linchuan got a call from Jiang Han.

"Linchuan, are you and auntie still at B University?"
