My Life with Narration-Chapter 351 - 348: Why Are You Holding Him?
"Ah, so comfortable~~" In a coffee shop, the landlady stretched leisurely, her curvy figure accentuated by her movement.
She had just sent the little girl to elementary school, and from now on, she’s free as a bird. She’s liberated.
This summer vacation had almost worn her out just by looking after the kid, but thankfully, school finally started. Now she only needed to drop her off in the morning and pick her up in the evening.
She’s only in her early thirties, just the right time to enjoy life, right?
Compared to the cheerful landlady, Shen Yi, sitting across from her, looked a bit downcast.
Seeing this, the landlady teased, "What’s wrong? Feeling lonely already? Can’t be, right?
I told you to be more proactive and capture his heart, but you didn’t listen. Now you feel miserable, don’t you?
Wireless charging may work, but nothing beats the quickness of wired charging. Besides, your wireless charging is like a placebo, a scratch that doesn’t relieve the itch, useless, isn’t it!"
Seeing Shen Yi’s lackluster demeanor, the landlady knew exactly what was going on and started cheerfully spouting suggestive banter.
As for the reason, wasn’t it because last night, during a video call, they talked about Su Qing going to the capital to send his sister off to university, and once Tang Nan found out, she said she wanted to host them.
But Shen Yi and Tang Nan have such different personalities that they started bickering after just a few words.
Especially upon hearing that Shen Yi and Su Qing hadn’t furthered their relationship, Tang Nan mercilessly mocked her, saying she wasted all those years of eating and was still clueless, couldn’t even win over a kid, even claiming she couldn’t handle the idea of a cougar preying on a younger man.
In response, Shen Yi didn’t back down and launched into a ’personal attack’, listing Tang Nan’s past boyfriends one by one.
Eventually, Tang Nan made a fierce threat, warning her that she’d be left powerless and parched.
Shen Yi’s quirks, Wen Nanqing was aware of, and Tang Nan, naturally, knew them well too, so she knew where her weaknesses were.
"Don’t you need frequent charging? If I yank out your charger, let’s see how you act all high and mighty."
This led to Shen Yi advising Su Qing at the airport.
"You talk so lightly, but if the feelings aren’t there, how do you get together? Force it? I see you two are quite suitable now; you’ve practically met each other’s parents. Just yesterday, he got a nosebleed seeing you. Why don’t you let him be your live-in son-in-law?" Shen Yi rolled her eyes at her.
Just always teasing her. These days, she’s been a bit conflicted. She clearly sensed the subtle tension, but they just couldn’t kick it to the next level. It seemed like every time they were on the brink, one of them would back off, either by Su Qing stepping back or her hesitating.
"Pfft, my parents just wanted to thank him. And besides, I wasn’t the one who was cornered by his mom at home. I’m not going to embarrass myself. About the nosebleed, I’ll get my mom to give you the recipe to boost him up; I bet he won’t get any more nosebleeds!" The landlady glared at him playfully.
As for Su Qing sneaking a peek at the wrong place yesterday and getting a nosebleed, she felt a bit embarrassed but didn’t say much more.
"Getting cornered by his mom at home, that was just an accident, okay?"
Shen Yi propped her chin up with one hand, frowning slightly, with a bit of a sigh.
With Su Qing gone, he’d be away for at least a couple of days, and she was sure she’d be feeling down, even worried about Tang Nan causing trouble over there. If he were really kept from coming back, she’d be miserable.
Meanwhile, as a plane roared over the capital, landing at the airport, a group of people disembarked, many of them young faces accompanied by parents, clearly students coming to the capital for university, and specifically freshmen.
After all, it’s only during the beginning of freshman year that parents come to see their children off.
At this time, the sun was blazing at 11 a.m., and the temperature was gradually rising. The two-hour journey wasn’t too boring.
"Bro~ Just tell me, what did sister-in-law say to you before she left?" Su He clung to his arm, acting coy.
Hearing this, Su Qing quietly pulled back his arm, then tapped her forehead seriously, "I’ve told you, you’re in college now, focus on studying more, gossip less. Hurry up, or you’ll miss the school bus!"
At this, Su He pouted, puffing her cheeks in frustration, having no way around it.
Soon, the two of them headed out. Though he hadn’t traveled far before, let alone been to the capital, as a young man, didn’t he know how to follow the crowd?
No matter how complex the Capital Airport was, you couldn’t go wrong following the flow of people.
Just as they stepped outside the airport, they saw a row of buses parked, each with a slim and attractive lady, or sometimes a guy, holding a sign in front of it.
The signs displayed the names of various schools, and every time a student approached, they were warmly welcomed, clearly by the student council.
Soon enough, the two spotted the sign for the financial academy and just before they could say hello, he heard a narrative voice in his head.
[The comedic girl has been in position for a while now and will arrive in three minutes to pull the plug in revenge for yesterday’s humiliation!]
Just as the words sounded, his phone rang. He took a look and saw it was Brother Nan.
"Hey~~~ Little brother, have you arrived? Your big sister here is coming to pick you up~~~" Just as the call connected, Tang Nan’s sweet, spine-tingling voice came through, making Su Qing involuntarily shiver.
If it weren’t for witnessing this woman’s antics before, he’d be half-weak-kneed at this point.
Shen Yi’s voice might be irritating when pinched, the landlady’s tweaked voice playful, but Tang Nan was genuinely like a seductive vixen.
"Just... just arrived!"
"Who is it?" Su He turned her head to ask but was quickly pushed back by Su Qing.
The freshmen welcoming students approached Su He, and two guys immediately stepped forward to inquire:
"Excuse me, are you a student from our school?"
Su He nodded repeatedly with her admission letter in hand. Seeing this, the two guys got excited and were ready to help with luggage.
"No need, brothers, we have a ride!" Su Qing quickly declined, then grabbed Su He’s collar and pulled her along.
"Bro, what are you doing!"
"Your Brother Nan is here to pick us up. And remember, when you’re out there, don’t hang around with guys. Guys aren’t good for anything, especially the ones who approach you to help!"
It wasn’t that these guys had ulterior motives, he just wanted to educate his sister about the dangers of men.
After all, only men know men best. Back in his university days, he did this too. Everyone knew the routine, ingratiate with pretty freshmen girls, and when it’s a guy, just push around the responsibility.
Most of the time, they were genuinely helpful, but some just took the opportunity to get contact information; that much was certain.
Yet clearly, Su He wasn’t listening.
"What? Brother Nan is here? Where, where?"
Soon, they spotted an off-road SUV, with Tang Nan, wearing sunglasses and a baseball cap, frantically waving at them!
He didn’t recognize the car brand but figured it wasn’t cheap, and being a public figure, she had to pay some attention.
"Brother Nan, I’m here!" Su He dashed over with excitement.
But Tang Nan, in response, ruffled her hair and, with a swift motion, snatched Su Qing by the neck, locking his head in a playful headlock.
With his head clamped under her armpit, Su Qing suddenly felt a heavy pressure, his face deformed by the squeeze.
And Tang Nan, in turn, took out her phone, snapped several photos, and sent them to Shen Yi.

Accompanied by a voice message: "You Shen woman, your little man is in my hands now. If you don’t want him dead, give me 5 million, or else... This sister of yours will... hehehe!"
Soon, Shen Yi replied:
"What are you doing with him? Which hand are you holding? Where exactly?"
"It’s not even a hand you’re using; what’s he doing on your chest?"
Tang Nan: ...
