The Male Lead’s Substitute Wife - Chapter 232

Chapter 232 The Proposal (4)

Later on, in order to inherit his grandfather’s inheritance, he needed to complete his condition. Therefore, he seeked her out for a contract marriage. It was also because she was well-behaved. He didn’t want to make things too complicated, so he chose her. Like what he thought, she was obedient, and never mentioned any excessive requests. Even if there was no wedding and their marriage was kept hidden, she didn’t complain at all. Just like what he said, she signed her name on the respective contracts.

He was naturally pleased with her obedience. Since she had helped him greatly, as long as she wasn’t too excessive, pampering a woman was no big deal with Chen Xiuqi’s ability and wealth.

But as he pampered her, he noticed that his heart had changed. He realized that the moment he saw her, he uncontrollably wanted to treat her well. He was happy to see her happy. He wanted to give her everything good there was in the world. Yet, the woman seemed to remember the contract back then clearly still? She didn’t even believe that he was proposing to her!

He now clearly knew what it meant to crush his own feet with the rock he picked up.

Chen Xiuqi looked at Su Yaya helplessly and asked, “You never truly loved me?”

Su Yaya remained silent before she suddenly smiled and said, “No.”

Chen Xiuqi suddenly felt sorrowful as if he was stabbed in the heart by a sharp dagger. He looked deeply at Su Yaya and tugged his lips, trying hard to make out, “Then you were just fake being considerate and gentle to me? Then the many days and nights that we spent together are nothing to you?”

Su Yaya thought his question was quite funny. “Wasn’t this just for the contract? The way we treated each other was just for the contract, no? You’re nice to me because I helped you successfully inherit your grandfather’s inheritance. Meanwhile, I’m nice to you because I need to complete the conditions of the contract marriage. Then, I can successfully obtain my alimony when the contract marriage is over!”

After hearing Su Yaya’s words, Chen Xiuqi realized that her motive had always been that clear. Originally, he thought that she just loved money, and was a money grubber. Of course, it wasn’t like he couldn’t afford it. He was willing to pamper her.

Yet, at this moment, he just realized how hilarious he was. He was like a clown. He looked at her and asked, “Then you never really loved me? Not even a little bit?”

Su Yaya pursed her lips, feeling a slight pang inside her heart. Then, she said determinedly, “No.”

The moment she just said this, Chen Xiuqi was like a furious lion. He lifted his hand and swiped the red wine, wine glasses, candles and roses on the long table off. Everything smashed on the ground, creating loud bangs. Then, as if this wasn’t enough to vent Chen Xiuqi’s anger, he angrily smashed the five million dollars worth sapphire ring on the ground too.

Su Yaya was frightened by his sudden anger. She hurriedly moved a few steps back as if scared that he might also beat her up under a whim of anger.

Chen Xiuqi’s eyes were bloodshot like a wild ferocious beast. He glared at Su Yaya who was moving back quickly. He never thought that in exchange for this meticulously planned marriage proposal, he’d get this result.

“Get lost!” He roared angrily at Su Yaya, his words squeezing out of his throat.

Su Yaya was really scared to see his furious expression. Scenes of him becoming angry for An Yutong had floated through her mind. Although he hadn’t beaten her, he forced her to sign her name on the divorce contract.

“Get lost, don’t ever let me see you again!” Chen Xiuqi said in her dream.

Since they were going to get divorced either way, why should she foolishly endure her possible tragic and miserable future for temporary happiness?

Su Yaya suppressed her jumbled emotions and turned, quickly running away.

Chen Xiuqi glanced at her figure running off quickly into the distance and a miserable smile floated on his lips. Just how badly did she want to escape from him?
