Chapter 161 - Deep Love? (1)
The Male Lead's Substitute Wife
Today was the release of the âFood and Gourmetâ episode that Su Yaya appeared in and Chen Xiuqi had freed up some time that night just to watch it with Su Yaya.
When Sis Hui asked whether Su Yaya had a boyfriend during the recording, Su Yaya could be clearly seen freezing up a little, as if she had no idea how to answer.
Chen Xiuqi, who was sitting next to her, turned his head to look at her with his deep gaze and said with a smile at his lips. âWhy didnât you answer her question right away?â
This was also something he thought about for many days. When the people on the net pointed this out, it wasnât as if he hadnât thought about it, he just hadnât thought about it with any depth. Now that he was calm, he began to think about it more. Could it be...that Su Yaya didnât want to admit their relationship?
Su Yaya observed his expression. After being together for so long, she could now see through his emotions just by looking at his face. With a smiling face, she said, âYouâre my hubby, silly, not my boyfriend. Thatâs why I didnât know how to answer!â
After some thoughts, it did make sense after all. The matter of their marriage had yet to be publicly announced and it wasnât the time for it either. He had to think about it, so after his plans were over, Chen Xiuqi wouldnât have to be bothered about this anymore.
The program playing on the TV was still going on. Soon, they saw how Sis Hui asked when Su Yaya would get married. After some thought, Su Yaya gave her a witty response, saying that he hadnât proposed yet.
When Chen Xiuqi who was sitting beside her heard that, he glanced over to her again, the appearance of a smile deep in his eyes. With the light illuminating his face, his expression seemed deep and meaningful.
Su Yaya felt a little guilty being stared at in such a way. She said weakly, âWhat are you looking at me for? You really didnât propose! I didnât say anything wrong! Whatâs more, I said that just to deal with Sis Hui. What could I have said if it wasnât that?â
âI know, I know.â Chen Xiuqi was very amused. He reached out to stroke her head and said, âIâll be remembering this.â
Huh? Su Yaya looked at him strangely. For some time, she couldnât figure out what he meant. It wasnât until later that she saw him doing that sort of thing did she finally realize what he was feeling when he said that.
It was just a pity... Her thoughts at that time were completely different from his and everything could only turn into regrets!
On that night, the two of them finished watching the show together. There was a cheerful atmosphere surrounding the show, everything went well. While watching the broadcast, they were chatting with each other and it ended up being quite a wonderful night.
Due to the incident with Chen Xiuqi and Su Yaya that broke out before, many people paid much attention to this episode of âGourmet and Beautyâ. Quite a lot of people were watching and even left comments online. Once again, Su Yaya and Chen Xiuqiâs names turned up in the hot searches list and âGourmet and Beautyâ followed along for the ride as well. Even the topic of Su Yaya winning the contest and whatnot were highly searched.
When Zhou Peiyun called Su Yaya the next day, she couldnât be in a better mood. You could even hear it in her voice. âAh, you really have the life of a koi fish. You clearly didnât do anything but you still went up the hot searches list that easily. Even âGourmet and Beautyâ received the highest ratings this period.â
Hearing that, Su Yaya giggled proudly. âYeah! I think Iâve been quite lucky lately as well!â
Zhou Peiyun said, âYou really are extremely lucky. Iâve got another advertisement gig for you. Itâs for a cosmetics brand. Theyâre offering 5 million for the deal, are you up for it?â
