Chapter 6 - Such a Beautiful Aunt

Chapter 6: Such a Beautiful Aunt

An Yu Wei swiftly picked out a few pieces of jewelry that she thought suited her, grabbing them all from the counter in one go.

Cao Shaoyang, on the other hand, enjoyed the feast for his eyes.

At first, her movements were quick and efficient. But after their eyes accidentally met while he was admiring her, her pace noticeably slowed. Regardless of whether the jewelry was in the inner or outer part of the display case, even the ones that could be picked up with a simple reach became an opportunity for her chest to linger on the counter for a few extra seconds before she retrieved them.

When An Yu Wei had finally laid all the selected jewelry in front of him, Cao Shaoyang’s lips curved into a meaningful smile.

Time was tight. After all, he still needed to get home later for a candlelight dinner with his stepmother. There wasn’t much room for playing games.

“What’s your name, sister?” he asked.

An Yu Wei pursed her lips, her heart inexplicably pounding like a drum.

“My surname is An, and my name is Yu Wei. And what should I call you, little brother?”

Cao Shaoyang followed her lead, introducing himself in the same manner.

“My surname is Cao, first name Shaoyang. You can just call me Shaoyang, sister.”

“An Yu Wei… Yu Wei. What a beautiful name—it has a poetic ring to it.”

The woman smiled, her eyes crinkling with amusement. “Thank you, little brother Shaoyang, for the compliment. Since I’m older than you, you can call me Sister An.”

She handed him a delicate gold necklace to examine. It was made of pure gold, the chain thin but elegant.

As they exchanged the necklace, her soft finger brushed lightly against his palm.

Cao Shaoyang, not exactly a seasoned player, felt his heartbeat quicken noticeably.

But wealth was courage for a man, and with his current net worth, he felt bold enough to suppress his excitement and speak up. “This might sound a bit forward, but rather than calling you Sister An, I’d prefer to call you Aunt Yu Wei. Would that be okay?”

An Yu Wei’s breath hitched. She unconsciously straightened her posture and crossed her legs tightly, her thoughts racing:

She recalled her unhappy marriage and her body, long devoid of any comfort, to the point where her cycles had become irregular.

With that thought, An Yu Wei lightly bit her plump lips with her pearly white teeth.

“Gosh, little brother, that’s such a peculiar request. But… I don’t mind!” She winked playfully at him.

Relief washed over Cao Shaoyang. After all, he was a beginner at this, apart from his semi-successful efforts with his stepmother back home. This was his first time actively hitting on a voluptuous, mature beauty like her.

It was a good start. A self-confidence that had been trampled in his past life began to rebound.

This seemed like a mutual interest situation, but the real question was whether it would develop further.

Cao Shaoyang had been single in his previous life, and the original owner of his current life also had no experience in relationships. But even if he had never tasted pork, he had seen pigs run before.

For most women, if you’re unsure how to interact with them, just spend money. Throwing money at the problem is the most forgiving way to deepen a connection.

With a shy smile, he responded to her. “Then I’ll call you Aunt Yu Wei, but you can call me Shaoyang or just ‘little brother.’ Just don’t add the word ‘little’ in front of it!”

Cao Shaoyang pretended to say it in all seriousness.

An Yu Wei, feigning ignorance, asked curiously, “Why can’t I call you ‘little brother’? Auntie is at least one full zodiac cycle older than your girlfriend!”

Cao Shaoyang glanced around the shop. At this hour, there were only a few scattered customers, none too close to where they were.

He gestured with his hand for her to come closer.

Obediently, An Yu Wei leaned in, bringing her ear near him.

Looking at her delicate, translucent pink earlobe, Cao Shaoyang intentionally leaned even closer to ensure she heard him clearly.

“Because… I may only be 18 this year, but in reality, I’m much more mature than 18.”

After finishing, Cao Shaoyang tactfully pulled back, putting some space between them. seaʀᴄh thё nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

He had noticed that Auntie had instinctively shivered just a moment ago. Being the considerate person he was, he chose to step back, sparing her from any potential embarrassment. What a great guy he was!

He picked up the gold necklace An Yu Wei had introduced with great enthusiasm earlier. It gleamed brilliantly, a dazzling piece with an equally dazzling price tag.

The necklace wasn’t very heavy, priced at 8,888 yuan. Its value lay not in the mere grams of gold it contained, but in its exquisite craftsmanship.

“Aunt Yu Wei! This gold necklace looks pretty good. It seems nice at first glance, but who knows how it actually looks when worn?”

“You’re so beautiful, with such a great figure. Why don’t you try it on so I can see how it looks?”
