Top-tier Auntie in the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 98

Song Linchuan stormed into the director's residence with anger. As soon as he pushed open the door and went in, before he could say anything, the director beckoned him over and asked, "Here to ask for leave?"

Song Linchuan was stunned for a moment, and didn't react at first.

The director pointed at the screenwriter and deputy director next to him, and said, "Alright, we saw the trending topics online, and can guess your purpose here."

Song Linchuan nodded at everyone and said, "Sorry, Director, I know our crew's shooting schedule is tight, but something urgent came up, I really need to go back for a bit..."

The director waved his hand and said, "It's fine, we all understand."

This wasn't the first time the director worked with Song Linchuan, so he had some understanding of the young man's temperament.

"Special circumstances call for special arrangements. We discussed just now and decided to give you three days off to go back and deal with family matters. Is that enough?"

Song Linchuan nodded slightly and thanked him before leaving directly.

As soon as he walked out of the yard, the deputy director next to him couldn't help but say, "Tsk, this brat is suppressing evil fire in his belly."

The screenwriter chimed in, "You got that right. Hey, you think they'll get into a fight?"

"A fight probably won't happen, but Pei Kuang getting beaten up one-sidedly is inevitable."

"Tsk tsk, if only we could watch it happen live..."

Seeing the two gloating, the director shook his head helplessly next to them. What a bunch of indecent old men.

After getting the time off approved, Song Linchuan didn't linger for even a minute. He went straight from the film set to the airport, bought the earliest available flight back to City B.

But all his actions were predicted by a paparazzo, who arrived at the airport entrance early to lie in wait.

Soon after, a short video clip less than 10 seconds long showing Song Linchuan appearing at the City B airport was uploaded online.

In the video, Song Linchuan walked out of the airport wearing a hat and mask, radiating a vibe that said "don't come near me". He then got into a business car and left.

[Holy crap, I can feel Song Linchuan's murderous aura through the screen!]

[Oh my god, just from the few steps in the video, I feel like Song Linchuan walked out with the aura of thousands of troops and horses. I'm strangely a bit worried for Pei Kuang now.]

[Damnnn, before this I still had some doubts about the affair between Pei Kuang and the young auntie, but seeing Song Linchuan appear at the airport, I feel like this matter is basically confirmed!]

[I know right, I heard Song Linchuan is on a super tight shooting schedule with his current crew, it's notoriously hard to get time off.]

[Totally, the female lead had to postpone a brand event last week because the crew didn't approve her leave request. How did Song Linchuan get approved so readily this time?]

[The official Weibo of the crew replied that it was a special case approval for the actor to go home and resolve family matters, so he can come back and shoot with double passion.]

[Hahahaha, hilarious. The director understands our boy huh, if they didn't give him the time off, he probably really wouldn't be able to focus on filming!]

[Tsk tsk, I can feel Brother Chuan's raging anger through the screen already.]

[Yup yup! There's no way Song Linchuan doesn't know the truth now for him to rush back like this!]

[Haha, Song Linchuan is anxious, he's anxious! Pei Kuang can't escape this beating right?]

[Kuang fans: It's fine, go ahead and beat him, Pei Kuang deserves it.]

[Right, although I'm a Pei Kuang fan, trying to see from his perspective, what he did is quite deserving of a beating.]

[Beat him, just beat him. He stole someone else's precious young auntie, how can he expect to not pay any price, there's no such good thing in the world.]

[Lmao, aren't fans supposed to be the most biased? Why are Pei Kuang fans acting like they can't wait to see their idol get beaten?]

[Pei Kuang: You fakes!]

...

Netizens and fans were heatedly discussing online.

Song Linchuan rushed back from the airport and went directly to Pei Kuang's home without even stopping by his own house first.

Right before getting out of the car, Jiang Han held him back. "Why don't I go with you?"

Song Linchuan glanced at him and scoffed coldly, "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking, wanting to go up and watch the show. No way!"

After saying that, he left without looking back.

Jiang Han watched Song Linchuan's back view and shook his head regretfully.

He was right, Jiang Han did have that intention. But really, who wouldn't want to witness such a top quality scene live?

The assistant said worriedly, "Brother Jiang, will something happen with Brother Song going up like this?"

He was really afraid that Song Linchuan would lose control when he got there and really beat Pei Kuang badly. What would they do then?

Jiang Han patted the assistant's shoulder confidently, "Don't worry, I understand your Brother Song well. He has a bad temper but acts with sense."

Although Pei Kuang probably can't escape this beating, he won't go overboard.

Also, Jiang Han overheard Song Linchuan's phone call earlier. Young Auntie Song is at Pei Kuang's place now too.

So with the young auntie present, even if Brother Chuan is very angry, he won't make big waves.

On Song Linchuan's side, he charged upstairs with momentum. But as soon as he got out of the elevator, he was blocked by Song Anan, with the person he was looking for, Pei Kuang, behind her.

"Linchuan, I'm sorry, this is all my fault for keeping it from you." Song Anan had an anxious look.

But Song Linchuan didn't even glance at Song Anan. He glared at Pei Kuang behind her through gritted teeth, "Young auntie, move aside. I'm looking for this scum!"

Seeing his attitude, Song Anan didn't dare budge at all. She stood firmly in front of Pei Kuang, "Linchuan, don't be rash. Let's talk it out nicely, no beating allowed!"

Song Linchuan took a deep breath and sneered coldly, "Pei Kuang, hiding behind my young auntie huh. Quite the looker you are!"

Pei Kuang felt a bit helpless. He really didn't intend to hide, but Song Anan wouldn't let him.

This matter started from when Song Linchuan called him earlier. Pei Kuang had directly put the call on speaker, so Song Anan was next to him listening too.

The young girl was clearly frightened by his "wash your neck clean and wait for me". She had been worried all morning, and no matter how Pei Kuang explained, it didn't work.

Helplessly, Pei Kuang could only speak up to pacify her, "Anan, it's fine, don't worry."

Then he looked at Song Linchuan again and said, "Let's not stand in the doorway, come in if you want to talk."

Song Linchuan also knew blocking the door wouldn't accomplish anything. He let out a cold humph, then directly pulled Song Anan in.

Pei Kuang followed the two inside, then closed the door after entering.

The three came to the living room. Song Linchuan sat on the sofa with his arms crossed, glaring at the two with a black face.

Song Anan and Pei Kuang didn't add fuel to fire either. They each sat on one side of the sofas.

For a while, no one spoke.

Song Anan looked expectantly at Song Linchuan, seeming like she wanted to say something but held back.

Song Linchuan most couldn't stand seeing his young auntie look like this. He could only force himself to look away from her and concentrate on glaring at Pei Kuang, the culprit.

He looked like he hated Pei Kuang so much he could devour him right there.

The three of them sat in such awkward silence for a good while. Pei Kuang also knew this couldn't drag on.

With Song Anan here, Song Linchuan had reservations. Even if he was very angry, it wasn't good to flare up in front of her. If this continued, it would only add fuel to fire.

So Pei Kuang could only turn to Song Anan and persuade her, "Anan, why don't you go back to Linchuan's side first. I'll chat with Linchuan first, then come find you afterwards, okay?"

Song Anan's first reaction was still to shake her head, but she also knew her staying here was useless. Song Linchuan made it clear he wanted to talk privately with Pei Kuang. If she insisted on staying, it would only drag things out.

So in the end, she could only leave reluctantly, looking back every few steps.

Pei Kuang sent her to the elevator. After seeing the elevator go down, he turned back.

Seeing this scum smoothly coax his young auntie away after a few words, Song Linchuan became even more furious.

"Quite capable huh, didn't expect you to have this skill," he mocked sarcastically. "Pretty good at coaxing young girls."

Pei Kuang was straightforward. Without wasting words, he directly took on a stance to let Song Linchuan do as he wish.

"Go ahead and hit me if you want to. I won't fight back."

For what he did, he had long been prepared to get beaten up.

Of course, if one beating didn't satisfy Song Linchuan, he could beat him up multiple times.

But unexpectedly, upon hearing this, Song Linchuan, who had been aggressive and impulsive earlier, suddenly calmed down. "Humph, I won't fall for your tricks, you scum."

“Did I hit you to make my aunt feel sorry for you and drive a wedge between our aunt-nephew relationship?” Song Linchuan had thought things through clearly on his rushed trip back.

No, Song Linchuan had initially intended to come back and beat up this son of a bitch, but he calmed down a bit on the plane.

He was right, his aunt was in her first relationship and still young. The more obstacles this love faced, the tighter the two would hold onto each other. He wasn't stupid.

Drive a wedge between their aunt-nephew relationship?

Pei Kuang couldn't help but put his hand to his forehead. This thought process was just crazy.

But Song Linchuan's reaction was something Pei Kuang hadn't anticipated at all. He cautiously asked, "What can I do to appease you?"

"Appease me?" Song Linchuan sneered disdainfully, "If I tell you, can you do it?"

Pei Kuang answered very carefully, "I'll try my best."

Song Linchuan stared at him steadily. "What if I asked you to break up with my aunt?"

Pei Kuang glanced at him lightly, "That's impossible."

Seeing his attitude, Song Linchuan egged him on more, "What's with this attitude? You think you're in the right?"

Pei Kuang calmly reasoned with him, "Linchuan, you know this request is unreasonable. If I agreed, you'd probably really kill me."

Song Linchuan let out a cold huff but didn't say anything.

What Pei Kuang said wasn't wrong. If he really agreed, then he was clearly just playing with his aunt's feelings. Beating him to death would be getting off easy.

After a long silence, Pei Kuang broke the silence first, "I developed feelings first and pursued her first."

Song Linchuan glared fiercely at him. He knew it was this son of a bitch who had his eye on his aunt first.

Gritting his teeth, he asked, "How long has it been?"

"Wait, it can't have been three years ago, right?!"

Pei Kuang was stunned.

Three years ago, that was when they had just met Song Anan!

He felt it was a bit ridiculous, "I'm not that much of an animal!"

She was just a young girl back then, not even an adult yet.

Song Linchuan sneered, "You say you're not that much of an animal?"

Who was it who said ‘your aunt is my aunt’? And his aunt had treated him like her own nephew. He had some nerve!

Pei Kuang laughed lightly, but didn't deny it further, "I am quite the animal."

Song Linchuan huffed, "Cut the bullshit, how long has it been?"

Pei Kuang looked at him for a moment, seeming like he wanted to say something but held back, "Half a year probably."

"What? Half a year!" Song Linchuan stared at him in disbelief, his voice raised several decibels.

That meant they had been together since last October.

They had hidden it from him for so long!

Pei Kuang explained with difficulty, "I wanted to tell you, I just never found the right chance."

Song Linchuan laughed angrily, "Never found the chance in such a long time? You're fooling me."

"Of course, you could say you wanted to discuss this face-to-face. But we spent several days together over the new year. How could you not find a chance to bring it up?"

Pei Kuang sighed, "But you were in a bad mood then, weren't you?"

Song Linchuan cursed directly, "When the hell was I..."

He suddenly realized something mid-sentence.

Pei Kuang said, "Anan said you were in low spirits then. She didn't want to set you off even more, so she just kept putting it off."

Song Linchuan: "......"

He cursed something under his breath, then took a deep breath. You could see he was really trying to restrain his anger.

Pei Kuang sincerely suggested, "Why don't you just beat me up? Don't hit my face though, it won't be noticed."

Song Linchuan: "Stop pretending to be nice. Keep talking!"

Pei Kuang raised his brows slightly. Talk about what?

"No, didn't you like Xie Yin before?" Song Linchuan suddenly remembered something and his face darkened again.

"You bastard, don't tell me you couldn't get Xie Yin so you turned around and went after my aunt instead!"

Pei Kuang was stunned for a few seconds before frowning, "When did I ever like Xie Yin? Who told you that?"

Song Linchuan said, "Didn't you say so yourself? Around last August or September, when I called you one night and you suddenly asked me..."

When he thought of the contents of that phone call, he suddenly realized something and looked at Pei Kuang in shock.
