The Male Lead’s Substitute Wife - Chapter 333

Ch.333 We’re a Family (2)

Early the next morning, Su Yaya and Shen Xiuqi took Sun Qin to the airport together, and they drove back home after seeing her pass the security check.

On the way back, Shen Xiuqi received a call from his second aunt, Zhang Guifang, “Grandpa asked you, Yaya, and Mama Su to come to the old mansion for dinner tonight, and your dad is back.”

When Shen Xiuqi heard that his father was back, he paused, and felt instantly unhappy. With an annoyed expression, he said in a deep voice, “When did he return?”

Zhang Guifang said: “This morning. It seemed that he had just got home for less than an hour and he was already scolded by your grandfather. He’s still in your grandfather’s study room. He said that he was not allowed to come out unless he reflected on his doings. “

Shen Xiuqi immediately replied angrily: “He deserves it. Let him be locked in. It would be best if he never came back out.”

Zhang Guifang sighed, “Don’t say that. Are you still not familiar with your father’s temper?”

Shen Xiuqi immediately snorted, “When he’s done having fun outside, only then he comes home. Where was he when grandfather was ill before? Did he stay in contact with any of us? I wish he just dies outside and never comes back.”

Shen Xiuqi got even angrier as he continued. Zhang Guifang could tell from his tone, and quickly comforted him, “It’s alright, let’s not talk about it, it’s not good for you to be this angry, remember to come to the old mansion for dinner tonight. This was arranged by your grandfather, you must come.”

Shen Xiuqi took a deep breath, relaxed his tone and said, “I see, we’ll be there.” After that, he ended the call.

Su Yaya, who was sitting next to him, asked, “What’s wrong?”

Shen Xiuqi said: “My dad is back.”

Su Yaya just remembered that she had never seen Shen Xiuqi’s father. She only knew that he was somewhere having fun and seldom kept in contact with his family. He would return only a few times a year. She could understand why Shen Xiuqi got so angry.

Su Yaya stretched out her hand to touch him and comforted him: “Don’t be angry, he is still your father. We as juniors shouldn’t interfere with his life.

Shen Xiuqi scolded angrily: “He is just a bastard!”

Su Yaya: “……”

Seeing Shen Xiuqi scolding someone so angrily, Su Yaya didn’t know what to say, and it was his father that he was scolding. She couldn’t scold along, she could only pretend not to know.

“Would you like some sweets? You’ll feel better.” Su Yaya changed the subject cleverly, and took out a lollipop from her pocket. After she was pregnant, her cravings became really strange, and in the past two days, she craved sweets.

However, Shen Xiuqi was very strict about it and only let her have three of it in a day, as he was worried of her having high blood sugar during her pregnancy.

Shen Xiuqi looked at her pale and soft little hand holding a red and blue lollipop, he looked up and met her expectant gaze, and suddenly he didn’t feel as awful, he then subconsciously reached out to hold the stick and said, “I’ll have one.”

He peeled off the outer wrapping paper and put the milky white lollipop into his mouth. A sweet flavour started to spread in his mouth, along with his stomach and heart. It seems that his foul mood was completely overthrown by the sweetness, and he didn’t feel as bad anymore.

When Su Yaya saw him eating the candy, she took another one out of her bag, peeled off the candy wrapper, and was about to put it in her mouth.

Shen Xiuqi glanced at her, “This is your second one for the day. You’re not allowed to have any more later.

Su Yaya froze before replying: “Didn’t you say that I could have three a day?”

Shen Xiuqi shook the lollipop in his hand, “The third one is here.”

Sun Yaya frowned and slapped him with her hand, “You’re so shameless. You ate the lollipop, how does that count?”

Shen Xiuqi stretched out his hand to hold hers, as he said, “We are a family.”
