Chapter 175: How Can You Be Such A Coward
“Do you know her?”
As the words left her mouth, Ye Xun lowered her head to glance at the singer’s name on her mobile phone. No mistake, it was exactly those three words ‘Pei Ningle’. She clearly hadn’t mentioned it, so how did Wang Heng know?
Probably, just like her, he had happened to hear her song.
In that case, using the word ‘know’ was a bit inappropriate; it felt like they had met in real life.
Thus, the young girl changed her words: “You know her too? Have you heard her song?”
Wang Heng: “No, I’m her agent.”
“Agent?” Ye Xun couldn’t help but be stunned.
She hadn’t expected that it was really knowing her in the real sense…
Before she could raise more questions, Wang Heng explained first: “I met her last year, helped her out a little, and then started handling some miscellaneous tasks for her like reviewing contracts, renting a house, contacting the recording studio, and such. So I’m considered her agent. By the way, if you want to meet her, maybe I can call her over right now.”
Ye Xun’s eyes lit up instantly: “Really? But calling her over like that, isn’t it a bit disrespectful…”
“It’s fine, she’s very easygoing,” Wang Heng picked up his mobile phone, “How about it, want to get to know her?”
Ye Xun thought for a moment, then nodded happily.
So Wang Heng sent a text message to Pei Ningle:
【My coach at the martial arts hall is your fan, what a coincidence, want to come meet?】
————
Pei Ningle started writing her second song.
《Lost》’s inspiration came from the train from the Imperial Capital to Rongdu, and for her second song, she had been brewing the inspiration for many days, yet she still couldn’t sum it up with a single word.
In her vision, this song should be more upbeat. Because after arriving in Rongdu, she felt that many things were gradually turning for the better, and the road ahead was becoming smoother and smoother. Although she was still very far from her ideal goal, at least she could see dawn…
“Right, dawn!”
The young girl had a sudden inspiration and wrote the word in her notebook.
Then, she set down the notebook, picked up the guitar, and casually strummed a short melody.
“This seems pretty good…”
Pei Ningle picked up the notebook and pen again, laid them on the guitar, and recorded this melody in simple notation.
At that moment, she heard the notification sound from her mobile phone.
Picking up her phone, she saw it was a text from Wang Heng, which immediately perked her up. But after reading the message, she felt… how to put it, a subtle discomfort?
【My coach at the martial arts hall is your fan, what a coincidence, want to come meet?】
Martial arts hall coach? The kind of sweaty muscle man?
And what kind of place is a martial arts hall? A place where a bunch of people practice martial arts, fight, and wrestle around?
Pei Ningle thought for a moment and replied: 【Better not, I’m not too daring to go into a martial arts hall, and I’m busy writing a song anyway.】
After sending this message, the young girl suddenly felt a bit regretful.
Thinking about it, why would Wang Heng ask her to come over? Having finally run into a real-life fan, he probably wanted to cheer her on with this. Refusing like that, didn’t it seem a bit willful?
But a martial arts hall, she really didn’t dare to go in…
Suddenly, Wang Heng sent another message: 【Then how about I come find you with her later?】
Pei Ningle stared at her phone, frowning slightly.
‘Her’?
The young girl quickly sent another: 【That coach you mentioned, is she a girl?】
Wang Heng: 【Yeah, and she’s even a bit younger than us. Actually, she was originally a student I tutored, and she happens to have some connections at this martial arts hall, plus she practices martial arts. So she got me a membership card and is coaching me on the side.】
So it’s her!
Pei Ningle immediately recalled the scene she had seen while stalking with Han Yixuan back then, that girl who had stayed with Wang Heng in the coffee shop for a long time. In an instant, her sense of crisis surged, urging her to reply with a message completely different from before:
【I’m coming over right now, wait for me!】
Wang Heng: 【Didn’t you just say you didn’t dare go into a martial arts hall?】
Pei Ningle: 【If a girl younger than me dares to go in, why wouldn’t I?】
————
When the door of the martial arts hall was pushed open again, Ye Xun stood up and looked over, seeing a petite and cute girl.
Similarly with a ponytail, wearing an ordinary jacket, leggings, and sports shoes, but a matching like that on other university girls gave off a middle school student’s vibe on her… So Ye Xun felt at first glance that this girl looked even younger than herself.
But Wang Heng had just told her that Pei Ningle was already an adult last year. In a few more days, she would even turn 19, two years older than her.
Ye Xun stared closely at her, slightly excited—after all, excluding the VIP seat at the concert before, today was undoubtedly the closest she had ever been to her favorite singer.
However, she didn’t know that this singer, at this moment, wasn’t approaching with a fan-meeting mentality.
Pei Ningle pushed open the door with a nervous mood, first observing her surroundings. Hmm, a very spacious environment, not like the imagined crowd of muscular hunks; there were hardly any people at all.
Right after, she spotted Wang Heng sitting on the ground looking at his phone, and the girl standing beside Wang Heng.
The sports tank top and shorts revealed Ye Xun’s even more slender figure lines than Pei Ningle’s, and since she was relaxed without exerting force at the moment, the muscle contours weren’t obvious; she looked like a slim, fair, pretty girl. Facing Pei Ningle, her face bore a brilliant smile, seeming especially approachable.
Pei Ningle immediately became vigilant—this enemy seemed more threatening than Han Yixuan?
Ye Xun grabbed Wang Heng and walked toward the martial arts hall doorway to greet her.
After the two reached Pei Ningle, Wang Heng casually introduced: “Pei Ningle, Ye Xun. Um, you two chat slowly, you seem quite fated.”
Pei Ningle: “Fated?”
Wang Heng shrugged: “You have so few fans right now, and one happens to be in Rongdu, and someone I know at that—what are the odds?”
Ye Xun nodded repeatedly: “Yeah, really too coincidental!”
Pei Ningle stared straight into Ye Xun’s eyes, detecting no hint of hostility. This left her a bit puzzled—did this girl named Ye Xun not like Wang Heng? Or did she think she posed no threat?
Then in the next moment, Ye Xun smiled and threw out a question: “Wang Heng senior, does your girlfriend know you’re acting as Pei Ningle sister’s agent?”
Girlfriend? Pei Ningle was stunned for a moment, then realized he was probably using Han Yixuan as a shield again.
And at this time, Wang Heng’s heartbeat only accelerated slightly, his expression calm without the slightest anomaly.
He replied indifferently: “Of course she knows, the two of them have met.”
Ye Xun took a deep breath, staring at Wang Heng—for this guy’s so-called ‘girlfriend’, she was growing more and more curious. But now there was no reason to meet her, what to do?
Meanwhile, Pei Ningle silently took a step back. She noticed that after mentioning ‘girlfriend’, the atmosphere here seemed… to have undergone a subtle change?
