The Male Lead’s Substitute Wife - Chapter 152

Chapter 152: Chen Xiuqi’s face darkened (1)

Bring them over to play?

If they came over, wouldn’t they have to meet Chen Xiuqi? Then, that would deepen their relationship, making it much more difficult for her to run later on. Mother and Father Su would be implicated too. That wasn’t good.

Su Yaya thought for a moment before saying, “It’s a good idea, but we’re both too busy right now to keep them company. It would be better to wait until I’m free. Then, I’ll go visit them where they are. It’ll just be a few days, am I right?”

“In that case, let’s invite them over here next time,” he agreed.

“Yeah,” she nodded.

“Wait,” he suddenly remembered. “Have you really been busy with work recently? Isn’t it just one variety show that hasn’t even start filming yet?”

He made it sound like she was very idle!

Su Yaya pouted at him. “That’s right, but since it’s a cooking show, I need to practice my cooking skills! Variety shows should also be taken seriously, especially since there will be judges there. I also told Sister Zhou to arrange some other jobs for me, such as shooting for magazines, advertisements, and going to the company for acting classes. I even had people from Weibo ask if I want to be one of their promoters! I have plenty of things to do!”

Faced with her pouting expression, Chen Xiuqi chuckled and reached out to pinch her cheek. “It sounds like you’re very busy.”

“Of course.” Su Yaya huffed with a somewhat proud look on her beautiful face.

The smile on Chen Xiuqi’s face grew wider. “Then, may I ask if my beloved big celebrity is free this evening? Could you spare some time to accompany me to a charity dinner?”

A charity dinner?

A look of surprise flickered across Su Yaya’s face. Chen Xiuqi was asking her to accompany him to a charity dinner?

As far as she remembered, in the novel, Chen Xiuqi never brought the original owner to a charity dinner with him. He would usually go alone or with an assistant or secretary. However, after the An Yutong returned to the country and the two got together, she would accompany him every time.

When she was reading the novel, she had praised An Yutong for her skills and Chen Xiuqi for his over-the-top pampering. His connections were everywhere, no matter what An Yutong needed, Chen Xiuqi could get it for her.

Of course, the way he treated the current Su Yaya was no different. As long as she coaxed him enough and her request wasn’t too excessive, he would try to satisfy every one of her wishes. It seemed that he had always been this kind of boyfriend.

Now, he was asking her to accompany him to a charity dinner. The reason Su Yaya came up with for that was: the Weibo post. Since their relationship was made public, there was undoubtedly a lot of talk about her in the circle. If he didn’t go with her, a lot of gossip and rumors would start circulating!

The subsequent explanation was: Of course, with his identity and status, he wouldn’t be affected by such rumors. However, it was better to dispel them in case they cause trouble in the future. It was just a charity dinner anyway, going with a female companion was nothing strange. Going with Su Yaya wasn’t only suitable but also convenient.

After thinking it through, Su Yaya responded calmly, “Okay, I’ll go get ready.”

She needed to stay on Chen Xiuqi’s good side, it was best to comply with his wishes.

Chen Xiuqi laughed and pulled her into his arms. “How can you be so cute? We’re going to a charity dinner. What do you need to prepare for?”

“Eh?” She looked at him in wide-eyed confusion. “Don’t I need to put on makeup, do my hair, and change into a dress or something?”

He laughed even harder and stroked her hair. “I’ll take you somewhere first, you’ll know.”

Su Yaya nodded and asked, “You’re taking me out to get ready?”

“Of course. My Yaya is so beautiful, I have to make sure that you outshine everyone else at the event tonight.”

Those words made her very happy. She hooked her arms around his neck and smiled. “How do you know I’ll outshine everyone at the event tonight? What if someone else outshines me?”

He bowed his head to kiss her lips. “Have confidence in yourself. No one else in the entertainment circle can compete with your beauty. As the first female companion of Chen Xiuqi, there’s no doubt you’ll be the most beautiful woman there!”
