Top-tier Auntie in the Entertainment Industry

Chapter 28

“Are you sure you didn’t hit your head?” Zhao Ya turned to look at Song Linchuan and said, “Or we should still have a doctor do a thorough checkup, just in case.”

His reaction didn’t seem like someone who had only injured their leg.

Jiang Han looked at Song Linchuan, also at a loss for words.

Look at what he just said, something like 'I handed her over to you, but you made her cry like this'

If you didn't know better, you'd think he was marrying off his daughter... Bleh, marrying off his auntie more like.

"I already had a full examination," Jiang Han explained, "It's probably just the anesthetic hasn't worn off yet."

Everyone else in the room was also speechless.

Song Zhenhui gave a cold "hmph", looking at Song Linchuan with obvious displeasure. If it weren't for the other people in the room, he would have disciplined this bratty kid already.

As the eldest brother, he was Song Anan's own elder brother. Those words shouldn't have come out of Song Linchuan's mouth, even on the day they eventually needed to be said.

Pei Kuang was feeling somewhat awkward.

Although he had nothing to do with this, he still felt as if he had taken advantage of the young auntie.

He unconsciously glanced to the side, happening to meet Song Anan's gaze.

Song Anan blinked, seemingly confused, with an expression that said 'What just happened?'

Alright, not understanding is also fine.

The young auntie has thin skin, he was worried she would feel embarrassed.

Song Anan truly didn't understand what had transpired. Her first reaction upon hearing Song Linchuan's accusation towards Pei Kuang was that she wanted to explain.

In her opinion, this was completely an undeserved calamity for Pei Kuang, brought upon by her own involvement.

After all, it wasn't him who made her cry.

But before she could speak, her sister-in-law had already interrupted her.

The anesthetic still hadn't fully worn off for Song Linchuan, so his mind was still a bit slow to react. As a result, he completely failed to detect the sarcasm in his mother's words.

All of his attention was still fixed on Song Anan's tear-swollen eyes. He glared fiercely at Pei Kuang, as if demanding 'You better give me an explanation'.

Zhao Ya could hardly restrain herself from giving him a slap. She impatiently said, "Enough, stop speaking backwards. If Anan cried like this, it was entirely because of you. What are you blaming Pei Kuang for?"

Song Linchuan was stunned for a moment. After a few seconds, he finally reacted.

He looked at Song Anan apologetically, "Auntie, I'm sorry..."

"Let's not talk about this for now," Song Anan waved her hand. She looked at him worriedly, "How are you feeling? Anywhere uncomfortable?"

"Yes, we can talk about things that upset your auntie later. First let's see if you have any discomfort anywhere - we absolutely can't let our guard down." Zhao Ya also quickly added.

The aunt and sister-in-law crowded around the hospital bed, attentively asking about Song Linchuan's physical condition.

Song Linchuan had just woken up and didn't have much energy yet. His words were also weak and feeble. But he responded to them very patiently.

He had no choice - under Zhao's imposing manner, he didn't dare show even a hint of perfunctory attitude. Otherwise he'd surely suffer her reckoning afterwards.

In the hospital room, Song Zhenhui, Pei Kuang, and Jiang Han had already withdrawn to the side, leaving all the space around the bed for the aunt and nephew.

At this point, Pei Kuang recognized who Song Zhenhui was.

Song Zhenhui - the head of the Song Group, a famously rich figure on the wealth rankings.

Over twenty years ago, he started from nothing and single-handedly built up the currently thriving Song Group. The company went public ten years prior and was now a well-known enterprise in S City.

Pei Kuang had encountered Song Zhenhui once before at a charity gala dinner.

However, he never could have imagined that Song Linchuan was Song Zhenhui's son.

Not just Pei Kuang, even Jiang Han, Song Linchuan's agent, had no idea about this.

Jiang Han had been in this circle for so long that he naturally had some understanding of famous business figures, especially someone like Song Zhenhui who frequently appeared in various business magazines.

But who could have thought that his own artist was actually Song Zhenhui's son!

Damn!!

This was Jiang Han's first reaction when he met Song Zhenhui and his wife at the hospital entrance earlier.

Jiang Han used to jokingly call Song Linchuan "Young Master", but who knew he actually was one!

In the past when sending Song Linchuan back to S City, he would only take him to the airport, where the Song family driver would come to pick him up.

Although Jiang Han had managed Song Linchuan for many years, because Song Linchuan rarely mentioned anything about his family while outside, he had always assumed Song Linchuan simply came from a slightly better-off background.

He never could have imagined that Song Linchuan was actually the Crown Prince of the Song Group!

Tsk, so the rich second generation was actually so low-key, huh.

After attending to her son, Zhao Ya finally turned her attention to the other people in the room.

She looked Pei Kuang up and down several times, even with an expression of regret on her face.

It made Pei Kuang feel a little uneasy inside.

"Why don't you appear on camera more? I thought you and Linchuan looked similar before, but in person you're clearly much more handsome than him." Zhao Ya shook her head and said.

Pei Kuang: "..."

Song Linchuan immediately protested, "Mom, what kind of mother badmouths her own son like this!"

Zhao Ya shrugged. "How is this badmouthing? I'm just stating facts."

Song Linchuan instantly didn't want to keep talking to his mother.

He had always known Zhao was obsessed with looks - otherwise she wouldn't have fallen for his dad back then.

Speaking of which, although his auntie wasn't obsessed with appearances, her aesthetics were quite aligned with Zhao's.

So the two had always lavished praises on his looks since he was young, making him feel numb to other people's compliments on his appearance after entering the entertainment industry.

But Song Linchuan never could have expected that upon meeting Pei Kuang for the first time, Zhao would abandon the son she had praised for so many years.

Hmph! She really didn't care at all about mother-son affection!

Song Linchuan twisted his lips downwards, but the next second his expression suddenly changed, as if a thought struck him.

Wait a minute!

Zhao's aesthetics matched his auntie's. So if Zhao felt Pei Kuang was more handsome than him...

Song Linchuan turned to look at Song Anan.

Could it be that in his auntie's heart, the most handsome male celebrity was this bastard!!!

Having realized the truth, Song Linchuan instantly became dejected.

He looked at Song Anan, then looked at Pei Kuang, before stubbornly turning his back. He decided to pretend not to see anything and keep his mind clear.

Wah~ His auntie had changed!

Seeing Song Linchuan's reaction, Jiang Han assumed his artist was hurt by his mother's words. He shook his head helplessly.

Actually, from his professional agent's perspective, he didn't feel Pei Kuang was more handsome than Song Linchuan at all.

One could only say the two had different charms - it was impossible to definitively rank one over the other. It completely depended on personal aesthetic preferences, which was why they were called the Two Great Top-tier Artists.

Lunch was delivered by Song Zhenhui's assistant, cuisine from a 5-star restaurant.

Song Anan had rushed over early in the morning without even eating breakfast, so she didn't feel hungry before. But now, seeing the food, she was indeed starving and ate with great relish.

Seeing her eat also made the others eat quite a bit more. Zhao Ya even kept praising Song Anan's appetite while eating - seeing her eat so delightfully was truly appetizing.

After finishing lunch, the others left to attend to various matters, leaving only Song Anan keeping watch in the hospital room.

Song Linchuan had just undergone surgery so his body was weak. He had drifted back to sleep in a daze.

Only now did Song Anan finally have the peace of mind to think over some things.

According to Jiang Han's prior account, Song Linchuan was injured trying to rescue a female artist. At the time, that equipment wasn't aimed at him. After pulling that person away, he himself failed to dodge in time and got hit instead.

Song Anan naturally thought of the female lead when considering who this female artist was.

So the current situation was - Song Linchuan had escaped the sudden death ending in the original book, but he still encountered the female lead of the original story.

Did this mean he still walked the path of the ill-fated supporting male lead, loving the female lead without it being reciprocated?

Could it be that Song Linchuan had already fallen for the female lead at first sight?

Why first sight? Because she could confirm that Song Linchuan and the original female lead did not know each other prior to appearing on this show.

Song Anan's brows furrowed slightly, clearly very troubled by this possibility.

Although she was Song Linchuan's relative, intervening in affairs of the heart was still quite inappropriate.

But simply standing by didn't seem right either.

Just as Song Anan was caught in a dilemma, the door to the hospital room was pushed open from outside.

She turned to look and saw Jiang Han walk in with two people - one man and one woman.

"Auntie, this is Zhou Wei and her agent," Jiang Han introduced. "They came specifically to see Linchuan."

Thinking they were Song Linchuan's friends, Song Anan nodded lightly.

"Sorry for the bad timing, Linchuan just fell asleep."

Zhou Wei quickly waved her hands and said, "Please don't say that. Let him rest well. We won't disturb him. I'll come see him next time."

After that, she signaled for her agent to put down the fruit basket they had brought, nodded at Song Anan, then left with her agent.

Song Anan watched Zhou Wei's departing figure blankly. She felt the woman seemed a bit familiar but couldn't recall where she had seen her before.

Maybe from seeing her online before?

It was possible. After all, the other party was also a celebrity. She had probably caught a glimpse of her inadvertently at some point, Song Anan thought.

Not long after, once Jiang Han had seen the two out, he returned to the hospital room.

"Ai, don't get me wrong, but Zhou Wei was also quite fortunate. That equipment was crashing down right towards her head. If not for Linchuan pulling her away, I'm afraid it really would have been dangerous."

Although Song Linchuan saved her, he failed to dodge himself and got his leg injured.

From a selfish perspective, Jiang Han truly didn't want his artist getting hurt, although the doctor said the operation went very smoothly and as long as he recuperated properly afterwards, he would make a full recovery without any lasting impairments.

But a hundred days for mending bones and tendons - all his upcoming schedules would definitely be delayed now!

Still, Jiang Han had to admit this was the best outcome, all things considered. After all, an object that heavy crashing down on one's head... Zhou Wei likely would have met misfortune if not for Song Linchuan's rescue.

Song Anan hadn't paid much attention to Jiang Han's words initially, but upon hearing the last part, her entire body froze.

She looked at the door in disbelief and exclaimed, "You're saying the person Linchuan saved was her?"

Jiang Han was puzzled by Song Anan's intense reaction, but still honestly nodded his head. "Yes, Zhou Wei is also a guest on the show."

Receiving the definite confirmation, Song Anan's face immediately flashed a hint of wild delight.

So the person Song Linchuan saved turned out to be her! This was fantastic, just fantastic!

Song Anan was so happy she could leap for joy.

Seeing Song Anan's reaction, Jiang Han was completely baffled.

The person Song Linchuan saved was Zhou Wei - wasn't that already being discussed online? It didn't seem like a secret.

"Is there some issue, Auntie?" he uncertainly asked.

Song Anan abruptly lifted her head, face radiating excitement as she exclaimed, "No issue, no issue at all!"

As long as the person Song Linchuan saved wasn't the female lead of the original book, saving anyone else was no problem at all!

Jiang Han: "..."

Alright, he understood the auntie less and less now.

At this time Song Anan had no thought to spare for Jiang Han. Her mind was completely occupied by another matter.

So the girl from earlier was called Zhou Wei!

Wait a minute! Zhou Wei?

Song Anan suddenly whipped her head to look at Song Linchuan lying in the hospital bed.

She finally remembered where she had seen Zhou Wei before!
