Top-tier Auntie in the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 32

After Song Anan sent the message, she instantly felt relieved. Whether the scene could be found back or not, she didn't know, but she had let out a breath at least,

Song Anan casually exited Weibo, and didn't bother with this matter anymore. She even turned her head and forgot about it completely. But she didn't know that her reply had caused huge waves on the internet.

The first one to react was the netizen she had replied to. They continued to reply under Song Anan's comment:

@First Row Melon Eating Girl: WTF! Is this real or fake?!

Because this netizen's comment was already near the top, it quickly attracted other people's attention.

[Ahhhhhhhh, caught a real little auntie!]

[WTF! WTF! Is this really Song Anan herself? Does anyone know, please give a reply!]

[Oh my god, is this little auntie's Weibo? Let me give her a big hug!]

[Wuwuwuwu, finally found home, little auntie wait for me, going to follow you right away!]

[Everyone don't get too excited first, what if it's just a high imitation account? Confirm first, don't follow the wrong one.]

[Yes yes, don't give those ill-intentioned imitation accounts any traffic!]

[@Song Linchuan, hurry and take a look, is this little auntie's account?]

[I've sent a friend request, @Song Linchuan please reply as soon as possible.]

...

The comments started @ Song Linchuan in a long thread, some people even went straight to the comment thread where Song Linchuan and Pei Kuang were arguing to catch him.

- Forget about arguing for now! Hurry over, little auntie needs you, her eldest nephew, to verify this friend request.

- What's the use of you as the eldest nephew, hurry look and see if @Little Auntie Song Anan is really little auntie herself!

Song Linchuan was online to begin with, noticing such a big commotion of course very quickly.

Regarding the Weibo account that Jiang Han made for Song Anan, he had known about it from the very start. He had even wanted to be the first one to follow his little auntie.

But because Song Anan had never posted anything, he thought she didn't want to use it, which was why he didn't follow. He was afraid it would bring unnecessary trouble to his little auntie.

He didn't know how it got suddenly exposed, Song Linchuan was very puzzled.

He scrolled around on the internet for a while before finally figuring out the whole story.

Seeing his little auntie's "I like obedient ones!" comment, Song Linchuan didn't even think before directly replying below Song Anan's response with "Got it."

Then, he followed her back with a flip of his hand.

Well now, the netizens who had been doubting the account's authenticity instantly had no more reservations, and happily followed her.

The follower count on Song Anan's Weibo account grew like a rocket, making who knows how many people in the industry green with envy.

After confirming Song Anan's identity, the netizens continued their antics.

After all, since Song Linchuan had obediently replied "Got it", then the other eldest nephew naturally could not fall behind.

And so, Pei Kuang who was also online, was led over by the netizens as well.

Looking at Song Anan's reply on Weibo, Pei Kuang couldn't help but chuckle.

He could imagine little auntie's annoyed look when she sent the message through the screen.

Like obedient ones?

With just this one line of hers, she really put him in an awkward spot. Didn't even need to think to know that everyone would use this to tease their relationship in the future.

Pei Kuang helplessly shook his head.

But this was fine too, it could also be counted as a blessing in disguise that aligned with his plans.

In fact, the hot search today was something Pei Kuang had asked Li Dong to intentionally push up.

Including the back and forth he had with Song Linchuan, it was something the two of them discussed beforehand.

The goal was to put the netizens' attention on the aunt-nephew relationship between them, so that it could also reduce some of the gossip.

Pei Kuang was very clear about these kinds of matters in the entertainment industry, which was why he directed and acted out this play today, also to better protect Song Anan.

After waking up from her afternoon nap, Song Anan had just walked out of her room when Qi Mushishi came.

"Little auntie, I specially brought these for you, they're all my favorite snacks, try them."

He directly handed over a bag of snacks.

The snacks that Pei Kuang had brought Song Anan last time were later shared by her with Qi Mushishi.

And that was when Qi Mushishi first realized that Song Anan really loved eating snacks.

Therefore, this time before coming over he specially went to buy a bunch of snacks that he liked to share with Song Anan.

[I'm going! Qi Mushishi really is a little sweetheart, he actually brought snacks for little auntie.]

[Qi Mushishi this kid's pretty good, last time I thought he was just saying it casually, didn't think he really took it to heart. Reliable.]

[Ahhhhhhh, is no one shipping this nurturing series CP?]

Song Anan happily thanked him as she accepted the bag of snacks.

She suddenly recalled that she had also prepared a gift for Qi Mushishi, which she had her sister-in-law accompany her to buy just yesterday.

"Mu Shi, wait a moment, I also have a gift for you." Song Anan said.

After putting the snacks down on a table nearby, Song Anan turned and ran towards her room.

Leaving Pei Kuang and Qi Mushishi staring blankly at each other.

[Uh...does anyone else feel like there's some deja vu here?]

[Last time when Song Anan gave Pei Kuang the red envelope, it was also like this right, just that Song Linchuan is now Qi Mushishi instead.]

[Whoa! I'm suddenly really looking forward to little auntie's gift now.]

After a few minutes, Song Anan's figure appeared again in the living room.

In her hands she held a bag, unclear what was inside.

But it seemed to have the logo of some bookstore printed on it.

Could it be that she was giving books?

That would be quite fitting too, giving some world classics between students wasn't too bad.

Song Anan handed the bag over. Qi Mushishi was naturally also very happy to receive a gift, "Little auntie, what did you get for me?"

Song Anan replied, "These are a few exercise books that I specially picked for you. Didn't you finish the last homework I gave you? You can continue with these."

Qi Mushishi instantly felt like the bag in his hands weighed a thousand pounds.

Exercise books? And a few of them!

He looked at Song Anan with grievance across his face.

Wuwuwuwu, little auntie you must be joking right.

[I'm done! I'm really about to die, little auntie really lives up to her reputation when it comes to gifting. You've never let the audience down!]

[Oh my god, how can little auntie be so cute, she actually gifted homework exercise books. Is she for real?]

[Hahahaha, can't stop laughing, little auntie are you a demon?]

[Hahahahaha, Qi Mushishi's smile is about to crack his face, please calculate the area of this child's psychological damage.]

[Let's have a moment of silence for Qi Mushishi, that last homework he somehow managed to finish with great difficulty.]

[Isn't this counted as avenging kindness with hatred from little auntie? Qi Mushishi gave her favorite snacks, and she gifted him exercise books, hahahaha, did little auntie forget that Qi Mushishi is an academically weak student?]

[Hahahahaha, how can you say it's avenging kindness with hatred? Exercise books are also little auntie's favorites!]

[Little auntie: The flowers of the motherland need the nurturing of homework!]

[Qi Mushishi: Is there really no one speaking up for me?!]

[I'm dead! The problem is little auntie doesn't seem to realize at all that gifting exercise books is inappropriate in any way. Is this the generation gap between good and bad students?]

Song Anan looked at Qi Mushishi's face that seemed on the verge of tears, also a bit confused.

How come he looks a little unhappy?

Pei Kuang watched the entire process from the side, he really had to try hard to hold in his laughter.

Every time little auntie gifted someone, she was always so unique.

Last time the red envelope she gave back to him, and now exercise books to Qi Mushishi.

There's no comparison without experience. Pei Kuang suddenly felt that the red envelope he received was simply incomparable.

It was practical, and also auspicious.

Better than exercise books by who knows how many times!

"What's wrong?" Song Anan looked completely puzzled, "Didn't you say last time that the homework I gave you wasn't enough, and you wanted more?"

Moreover, Qi Mushishi had confidently told her back then that he would definitely study properly in the future, and take the exams for B University.

Song Anan gave it no further thought, and having understood Qi Mushishi's level a bit during the time they recorded the show, she thought to pick out a few suitable exercise books to help him.

Didn't he say he wanted to test into B University? Then he would definitely need to work hard.

Qi Mushishi: "......"

How could he say that he was just boasting casually at the time!

[Whoa! I've been busy with work and didn't keep up with the livestream, what did I miss here?]

[I was there at the time. This Qi Mushishi brat was simply outrageously arrogant. He even said stuff like that homework was nothing much, if you gave me a few more books that'd be great. And now he's getting his wish fulfilled.]

[Hahahahaha, I remember Shi Qing was next to him at the time, her eyes were about to roll to the heavens already.]

[I'm dead, I was there that day too. The entire bullet screen area was telling Shi Qing to hurry up and sign up Qi Mushishi for more classes. It was time to let the child get a taste of the dangerous society.]

[My god, this even happened? Then Qi Mushishi really did have this round of retribution coming.]

Seeing Qi Mushishi's forced smiley expression, even if Song Anan was slow on the uptake, she realized by now that she might have chosen the wrong gift.

"It's fine if you don't like it, forget it then. I'll get you something else next time." Song Anan said.

Qi Mushishi hurriedly waved his hands, "No need, no need. It's just in time for me to consolidate what I've learned."

A man should bear responsibility for his own boasting. Even if he had to kneel, he would finish writing all of these!

"When are we leaving?" Qi Mushishi only wanted to quickly end this sad topic. They were going out to play this afternoon anyway.

They had already agreed during lunch that the two of them would take a stroll by the beach this afternoon.

Song Anan looked towards Pei Kuang.

Pei Kuang held in his laughter and replied, "Let's go, we can leave now."

After speaking, he lifted his footsteps and walked outside.

He was truly afraid that if they left even one step late, he would burst out laughing on the spot.

Little auntie really was direct to the point of being cute.

Shi Qing didn't come because she was afraid of the strong UV rays on the islands and didn't want to get sunburnt.

Pei Kuang brought Song Anan and Qi Mushishi to wander the island for the entire afternoon, only starting to head back to the villa after 5pm.

They didn't know if the other guests just didn't come out, or if the island was too big so they missed each other, but they didn't run into anyone else the entire afternoon.

When Song Anan returned to the villa, she found that everyone was gathered neatly in the living room.

"You guys are finally back, let's quickly discuss what to have for dinner," Li Yu said.

According to the show's requirements, the guests had to cook their own meals this episode, but they would provide the ingredients.

For something like cooking, Qi MuShi, this little brat, and Song Anan, the kitchen killer, were directly excluded by everyone.

The others gathered around and discussed the menu for dinner.

The first floor of the villa was spacious enough, divided into three areas - the living room, dining room and kitchen.

Everyone made use of their specialties and prepared a few of their signature dishes, which when combined made quite a sumptuous feast that filled up a large table. They all sat around the table and ate with great delight.

As they were eating, they realized that Pei Kuang's cooking skills were truly excellent, especially his grandma's braised pork, which was very authentic.

With a mouthful of oil, Qi MuShi said, "Brother Pei Kuang, you're so awesome, this braised pork is too delicious!"

Song Anan has always been generous with her praise for Pei Kuang's cooking skills, but right now her mouth was stuffed full of food, so she could only give him a big thumbs up.

Pei Kuang smiled and told them to eat more if they liked it.

The others were also eating happily. Li Yu couldn't help but jokingly said, "Pei Kuang, you're so handsome, and you understand romance, plus you can cook so well, I really envy your future girlfriend!"

As soon as she said this, there was a sudden stagnation around the dinner table, and everyone subconsciously looked at Xie Yin.

Xie Yin's face flushed red, and she looked at Pei Kuang as if wanting to explain something but was unable to speak.

The atmosphere on the scene became ambiguous and awkward.

The other guests scratched their noses awkwardly. It was very embarrassing for everyone.

But they really didn't mean it, it was just a subconscious reaction.

Clearly, after spending half a day together, everyone at the table had already understood the past scandal between Pei Kuang and Xie Yin.

After all, it was still trending on the hot search.

【Oh my god! I'm laughing to death, so celebrities surf the Internet just like us】

【Hahaha, we're all eating melons from the same field, but eating melons on the spot is more exciting!】

At this moment, Qi MuShi suddenly exclaimed, "Strange, why did you guys look at auntie when talking about Brother Pei Kuang's girlfriend?"

Song Anan happened to be sitting next to Xie Yin. From Qi MuShi's perspective, this misunderstanding was understandable.

【Hahaha, we still have to look to Qi MuShi for these conversation killers】

【Other guests: We were looking at auntie? We were clearly eating melons!】

Other guests: "......"

With which eyes did he see them looking at Song Anan?

Wait a minute!

This was actually not a bad excuse.

"We were afraid that the elder wouldn't approve, your Brother Pei Kuang's future girlfriend wouldn't be allowed in the door. After all, auntie likes filial nephews," Guo Xiu slowly continued.

Song Anan was stunned for a moment, a little confused.

A few seconds later, she suddenly realized what Guo Xiu was talking about.

Likes filial nephews, wasn't that what she replied to netizens on Weibo?

The little auntie's face turned red from being teased, she could only lower her head and dig at the rice in her bowl.

【Oh my god! Guo Xiu is indeed an amazing comedian, his situational reaction skills are awesome, he actually smoothed this over】

【Hahaha, I'm laughing to death, so the other guests were also browsing auntie's Weibo】

The others clearly also knew about this meme, and they all laughed uncontrollably.

Only Qi MuShi was completely confused, what was so funny again?

Just as he was about to say something, Shi Qing suddenly stuffed a big piece of braised pork into his mouth, "Talk less during meals, it's impolite!"

Qi MuShi: "......"

At this time, Li Yu also realized the inappropriate nature of her earlier remarks. Her mind raced to think of how to give Pei Kuang an explanation.

So she pretended to casually look at Pei Kuang and said, "Come on, Pei Kuang, tell us what kind of girl you like. Shi Qing and I will keep an eye out for you in the future."

Shi Qing also nodded.

Pei Kuang didn't waste the opportunity given by Li Yu. He pretended to ponder for a moment, then said, "I still prefer focusing on work."

Idol artists losing jobs for dating, this was common knowledge in the entertainment industry.

With this remark, it at least indicated that Pei Kuang's current focus was still on work and that he had no plans to date. So those so-called scandals could be left unaddressed.

Li Yu glanced at Pei Kuang appreciatively. Working with smart people was so relaxing.

With a seemingly casual joke, he had clearly stated his attitude.

After dinner, everyone chatted for a while and then returned to their rooms after the livestream ended.

Before going to bed, Song Anan went to the kitchen on the first floor and microwaved a cup of milk.

She had just put one foot out of the kitchen when she happened to see Xie Yin and Pei Kuang coming in from outside. Song Anan reflexively backed into the kitchen again.

Xie Yin's voice came over, "Brother Pei Kuang, auntie actually misses you quite a bit. There are no overnight hatreds between mother and son. No matter what she says, she's still your mother."

Pei Kuang seemed to scoff and said coldly, "Mind your own business, don't do useless things."

Xie Yin wanted to say something more, but Pei Kuang immediately noticed the light in the kitchen was on and walked over.

Song Anan was originally hugging the cup and shrinking away when she suddenly saw Pei Kuang at the kitchen door and was startled for a moment.

"I, I'm heating up some milk..."

Pei Kuang lightly hmm-ed and beckoned to her, "Going back?"

Song Anan obediently nodded.

Pei Kuang nodded slightly, "Let's go then."

Song Anan oh-ed and followed behind Pei Kuang like a child who had done something wrong.

When passing Xie Yin, she didn't even dare to look up.

After all, eavesdropping and getting caught was really embarrassing.

After returning to the room, Song Anan called out to Pei Kuang, "I didn't intentionally eavesdrop just now, don't get the wrong idea."

She didn't even know why she reflexively retreated back into the kitchen after seeing them.

Pei Kuang replied, "Mm, I know."

Song Anan was half believing.

Pei Kuang chuckled, "I really don't misunderstand. You were going to heat up milk, of course you were in there before me. I still have that much logic."

Hearing him say this, Song Anan felt relieved.

Pei Kuang raised his brow, "If there's nothing else, I'll go back to my room first?"

Song Anan hesitated for a moment before finally nodding, "Nothing else."

Pei Kuang lightly nodded his head and left.

Song Anan looked at the door for a moment then also returned to her room.

She had originally wanted to ask about his relationship with Xie Yin, but on second thought didn't ask.

Not talking meant he didn't want to talk about it. Why make things difficult for him?

After returning to the room, Song Anan sat on the bed and started spacing out.

She didn't know how much time had passed when she picked up her phone and her fingers flew quickly over the keyboard.

"Li Sirui, I want to ask you something."

Li Sirui was clearly on her phone. She replied almost immediately, "What?"

Song Anan sent her a passage: "The man looked at the bride and groom on stage, as well as their family members, with a trace of sadness and pain flashing through his eyes."

"What do you feel when you see the passage above?"

Li Sirui: "Damn, isn't that the male second lead's lines? Little Anan, where did you see this?"

Song Anan frowned.

The male second lead's lines?

Li Sirui: "Oh wait, you don't read novels right?"

Song Anan: "What novel?"

Li Sirui: "I'm currently reading a novel where the male second lead has that description at the female lead's wedding scene."

She immediately sent over a link, "It's this one. It's supposed to be pretty good, the writing and plot are not bad. The male second lead is portrayed really well, he tricked me into shedding quite a few tears for him. If you want to read it, you can just use my account, no need to buy it again."

Song Anan thought for a moment before replying: "Why don't you first give me a general overview of what this novel is about?"

Although Li Sirui didn't know why Song Anan was suddenly curious about this stuff, she still patiently told her about it.

The novel was about the female lead and the male second lead who were childhood sweethearts. Their families were also old friends. When they grew up, the male second lead fell in love with the female lead, but was rejected when he confessed. The female lead only treated him like a brother.

Because the male second lead didn't get along well with his family, he left in anger the city where they lived. The female lead chased after him to persuade the male second lead to return home, but he refused. So the male second lead stayed in that city.

In the new city, the female lead met the male lead and the two fell in love.

In the end, the male second lead's ending was that he never married, and willingly stood in the background to watch the female lead live happily ever after with the male lead and have children and grandchildren. But the male second lead never knew that he was a backup that the female lead didn't even know about.

Up until the male second lead died, he always felt that it was because he was not good enough that the female lead didn't love him.

Song Anan listened in a daze.

The male second lead and the female lead were childhood sweethearts.

Pei Kuang and Xie Yin were from the same city, and from their conversation tonight, their families also knew each other, so they should also be childhood sweethearts.

The male second lead was estranged from his family, and the female lead went to the new city to persuade him to return home.

From Xie Yin's persuasion to Pei Kuang just now, it was clear that something unhappy had happened between Pei Kuang and his mother.

And that description of the male second lead at the female lead's wedding scene.

Moreover, Xie Yin right now seemed to be the female lead who met the male lead, Ji QiuBai, on this show. So if her original purpose in coming here was to persuade Pei Kuang...

Wasn't this too much of a coincidence? It actually aligned so well!

Could it be that Pei Kuang was really some deeply in love male second lead?

In the end, Song Anan still clicked on the link.

This was the first time she read this kind of novel. Especially after substituting Pei Kuang into the male second lead, she strangely got hooked on it and unknowingly read until late into the night before falling asleep.

The next morning, Song Anan got up with a groggy head and two big dark circles under her eyes after staying up late.

When she opened the door, she happened to bump into Pei Kuang who was coming out of his room.

Song Anan was startled at first, then walked over and patted him on the shoulder. With utmost seriousness, she said, "Pei Kuang, you're great, you really are great!"

So, don't ever be some pitiful, self-deprecating male second lead for others.

It's too miserable!

Pei Kuang: "???"
