The Male Lead’s Substitute Wife - Chapter 142

Chapter 142: I’m not Greedy (1)

Su Yaya lied on the bed with a compliant look on her face and under Chen Xiuqi’s watchful gaze, she closed her eyes.

He stood by the bed for a while. She couldn’t tell if he was watching her or waiting for her to fall asleep, either way, her thoughts were so chaotic that she was beginning to have a headache.

Fortunately, he didn’t stay for long. When the hot gaze on her face finally disappeared, she heaved a sigh of relief. She needed some peace and quiet to think.

Su Yaya was a little worried. Her relationship with Chen Xiuqi was now known by countless people. Would it be difficult for her to run later? What if An Yutong learned about it, she would undoubtedly hate her even more than she did in the original novel!

Of course, that wasn’t the most important point. The most important point was her concern that once Chen Xiuqi and An Yutong got together, would he recall what he did today and feel resentful toward Su Yaya? It would be terrible if he did! She was innocent!

Just the thought made Su Yaya want to burst out in tears!

The more she thought about An Yutong and her potential future, the more aggrieved she felt. Ugh, it would be better not to worry about it!

With a sigh, Su Yaya lifted her hand and dabbed at her eyes. She cheered herself up and continued to think about what she should do next.

There was no use crying over spilt milk. All she could do now was work harder to please Chen Xiuqi so, when he recalled his times with her in the future, he would feel less resentful.

Another important thing she had to do was speed up her escape plan. The more time she spent with Chen Xiuqi, the deeper their relationship would become and the more difficult it would be to leave later.

Mhm, she already possessed a good amount of money. Most of it was given to her by Chen Xiuqi as he always gave her a hefty allowance every month. She had also earned money from drinking medicine and shooting two commercials, though the candy one wasn’t worth much. The other commercial earned her much more money and once the filming for 《The Flourishing Fall of the Palace Willow Wall》 was done, she would get a round sum of nearly three million yuan.

She could shoot more commercials in the meanwhile as they provided a faster source of income. She planned to discuss it with Zhou Peiyun later. Chen Xiuqi had also promised to give her a good commercial opportunity, so she mustn’t let it go to waste.

She had to earn as much money as possible before An Yutong returned, then she would peacefully divorce Chen Xiuqi and get a ten million yuan alimony. With that money, Su Yaya could buy a little house in the countryside and live a happy farmhouse life.

Her wishes weren’t very ambitious.

She wasn’t greedy!

In her past life, Su Yaya was born in a small province. Her parents were ordinary workers in state-owned enterprises. When the state-owned enterprises were reformed, their family had also suffered. Money was tight, so they moved to the country and raised ducks and chickens for a while.

However, at the time, they were only doing it to live and pass their days. When industrial parks began to open later, her parents returned to work. Rural tourism became popular as the economy continued to develop, so Su Yaya thought it would be nice to just live in the farmhouse.

However, after she graduated from college, she remained in the city. After all, there were more opportunities in the city than in the small countryside. Unfortunately, it also meant that competition was also more intense and the cost of living was much higher.

Her mother fell ill later on and all of their family’s money was spent on her treatment.

During the most painful and difficult days of her life, Su Yaya always thought about living a quiet and leisurely life. She pictured a farmhouse with blue skies, clear waters, and verdant mountains…

For this goal, she was determined to work hard.

……

In a high-end apartment.

After she read about Chen Xiuqi and Su Yaya’s relationship on Weibo, An Yuting smashed her phone in anger.

Ahhh! She couldn’t stand it!
