Chapter 121 - Don’t Give Gifts, Just Give Money! (3)
The Male Lead's Substitute Wife
Su Yaya wrinkled her nose. So bitter. Her brows were frowning so deeply that they were nearly tangled together.
âQuickly drink it. IF you donât drink it now, itâll get cold and get even more bitter,â Chen Xiuqi urged her. âIf you drink it up like a good girl, Iâll buy you a present.â
Su Yaya suddenly felt like she was a little girl again. During that time, she was also afraid of drinking bitter medicine and she couldnât swallow any of it at all. So, to coax her, Daddy Su would always say, âIf you drink it, Iâll buy you candy.â
It had to be mentioned that their family income at that time was very low. Every penny was spent where it should, so buying candy had always been difficult for her. So, in order to get the candy, she would always endure the taste in the end and drink her medicine.
Su Yaya looked at Chen Xiuqi with her big eyes. âWhat present are you going to buy me?â
Chen Xiuqi looked at her. In her heart, he thought that just as expected, there needed to be incentives for motivation. So, he said, âIâll buy you any present you want.â
âWow! So generous?â Su Yaya was surprised.
Chen Xiuqi pinched her cheek. âWhen have I ever been anything less than generous to you?â
Thatâs true!
Su Yaya nodded. She suddenly thought of something and looked at him. âCan you just give me money then? If you give me money, then Iâll be able to buy anything I want!â
When she heard her words, Chen Xiuqi looked at her observingly. âAre you short of money?â
Su Yayaâs heart panicked. She quickly waved her hands and said, âWell, no. I just thought itâd be more convenient! Hehe!â
Chen Xiuqi chuckled and pincher her cheek. âI didnât know you liked money so much.â
Su Yaya shot him a look, but she didnât seem to be angry. She shook her slender legs and said in a cutesy way, âThatâs right, I just like it!â
Chen Xiuqi laughed. âSo how much do you want for one bowl of medicine? Is one thousand enough for one bowl?â
Su Yaya thought about it for a moment. Based on what auntie told her, she will have to be drinking this medicine for a long time. Maybe about three months. If she drinks three bowls a day, thatâs 3,000. In three months, thatâll be 230,000. Thatâs no small number. So, she happily agreed. âOkay!â
âAlright then!â Chen Xiuqi brought the bowl over to him and said in a pampering tone. âYou little money lover. Youâre going to drink it now, right?â
Su Yaya looked at the dark liquid in the bowl and a bitter smell entered her nose. It really smelled terrible and unpleasant, but for the sake of money, sheâll have to bear with it!â
âIâll drink it.â Su Yaya was determined. She took the bowl from Chen Xiuqi and pinched her nose. Then, holding the bowl with one hand, she lowered her head and drank it all in large gulps.
When Chen Xiuqi saw her gulping down the medicine, a satisfied crawled up the corners of his lips.
It was only after she finished the bowl did Su Yaya take a big sigh of relief. She put the bowl back into Chen Xiuqiâs hand and hopped off the counter like a rabbit. Yelling out how bitter it was, she quickly ran out of the kitchen into the living room to find something sweet to eat.
Deep laughter rang out from Chen Xiuqi behind her.
Su Yaya remembered that she received a box of milk candies from Wang Wenhao last time that was placed in the living room. It wasnât until she put the candy in her mouth and let the sweetness melt inside did she finally feel better.
At this moment, a notification bell for a message came from her phone. Su Yaya unlocked her screen and looked at her WeChat. It was Chen Xiuqi who had just transferred 100,000 yuan to her! The transfer note read: Drink your medicine!
The author has something to say: Chen Xiuqi: Iâll transfer 100,000 yuan to you, so drink your medicine!
Su Yaya: Hehehe, I even got a bonus!
