The Male Lead’s Substitute Wife - Chapter 108

Chapter 108: How’s Your Relationship with Chen Xiuqi? (2)

She tried her best to convince herself that it definitely wasn’t as she thought. There’s no way that Xu Chaoran would harm her. After all, they never had any contact prior to this and they didn’t have any grudges to settle from the past. Why would he harm her? He’s the no.1 in Xinghui Entertainment. A famous young celebrity. His career in the industry was bright as ever while she was just a wallflower. As an internet celebrity that was hardly popular, she had just begun to be noticed. There’s no way he’ll suddenly target her.

Then, that means she caught his eye.

Noticing this abnormality, Su Yaya was starting to get a bad feeling from Xu Chaoran. What happened today had already caused a stir on the internet. She still has no idea how things are on the net now, nor did she know whether Chen Xiuqi had seen the news, or what he would think of it. She didn’t dare to call Chen Xiuqi directly, so she tried to send three short messages to try and explain things to him. Unfortunately, Chen Xiuqi did not respond to him. She didn’t know whether he didn’t see it because he was too busy or was there another reason for it. Whatever it is, Su Yaya’s heart was now jumping up and down with unease.

She didn’t want to get tied up with Xu Chaoran any longer. She just wanted to shoo him off. Right now, her mind was feeling like a mess and he was the last person she wanted to see.

“You should go,” She said to Xu Chaoran with a straight face. Even her eyes were cold when she looked at him. She was clearly shooing him away.

Xu Chaoran could also clearly tell that she was being much colder to him compared to before. Even he himself knew why that was. He looked calmly at her for a moment and nodded lightly, saying, “Alright.”

Su Yaya leaned on the bed quietly and did not look at him. Her eyes were on the back of her hand where the needle was inserted, not moving in the slightest.

Xu Chaoranglanced at her for a moment before turning around and walking out. When he reached the door, he stopped and turned around towards Su Yaya. “Whether you believe it or not, I truly see you as my apprentice sister. You’re my friend.”

The corner of Su Yaya’s mouth moved, but her throat felt so dry that she could not squeeze out a single syllable.

When Xu Chaoran saw her ignoring him without saying anything, his gaze dimmed. He turned around, opened the door, and left.

The ward finally turned silent. After a long while, a sigh emerged in the room.

At this moment, a pleasant ring from her phone broke the silence.

Su Yaya picked up her phone with the hand without the needle and saw Zhou Peiyun’sname on the screen. She unlocked her phone to pick up, and as soon as she said hello, she heard Zhou Peiyun’s excited voice coming out from the receiver.

“Yaya, everything’s been resolved. Everything on the net is dealt with and even the searches have been withdrawn. Those paid comments criticizing you have also been deleted. Reporter X deleted the post from Weibo and apologized. The other reposters have also posted the follow-up. You told President Chen and he got someone to deal with it, right?

“No, I didn’t!” Su Yaya felt confused when she heard that. Everything was resolved? But she didn’t even have the time to look for Chen Xiuqi yet. She also didn’t get any replies from what she sent him earlier. Could it be…he saw the posts early on and hired someone to deal with it? But then why did he ignore her?

Zhou Peiun went on, “I dare say this had to be done by President Chen. Otherwise, nobody could do it that quickly. He really helped you with a big one this time, you better give him a big thank you later. Don’t make him angry!”

Su Yaya froze for a moment and responded, “Okay, got it.”

If Chen Xiuqi really was the one who helped her, then she should thank him properly and also give him a clear explanation.
