Chapter 285 - I’m Not Picky! (1)
The Male Lead's Substitute Wife
The old house that the Su family was now living in had two-bedrooms and two living rooms. Father Su and Mother Su took up one room, and Su Yaya stayed in the other room, there wasnât any other room available for Shen Xiuqi to stay in, Shen Xiuqi could only stay in the farmhouseâs room.
During the night, Su Yaya wanted to head back to their house with her parents, Shen Xiuqi held her hand to sent them to the door, he was reluctant to let go of Su Yayaâs hand, and said longingly: âI donât want to be separated from you, can I stay at your house?â
Su Yaya smiled and said, âYour probation period isnât over yet! Are you still a child? Iâll see you tomorrow.â
âI really canât stay at your house?â Shen Xiuqi asked again: âI can sleep on the sofa, Iâm not picky!â
Su Ya Yaya glared at him, and firmly refused, âNo, with your height, youâll feel uncomfortable if you sleep on the sofa.â
âBut if I sleep in the farmhouse, without you, I canât fall asleep.â Shen Xiuqi learned this from Su Yayaâs usual tricks, he pretended to look hurt and said pitifully.
Su Yaya laughed out loud, âYou canât fall asleep? Didnât you sleep well this afternoon?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Shen Xiuqi said pitifully: âThatâs because I was very exhausted this afternoon, thatâs why I could fall asleep, I have already taken my nap in the afternoon, and I might not be able to fall asleep at night, I struggle to fall asleep in unfamiliar beds.â
âOkay.â Su Yaya smiled even more exaggeratedly, âYou canât fall asleep in beds that youâre unfamiliar with, but even if you go to my house and sleep on the sofa, youâll still not be able to fall asleep.â
âYaya......â
âOkay, be good, Iâll see you tomorrow, just sleep here. If I let you go to my house, my parents will worry.â Su Yaya patted Shen Xiuqi on the shoulder, and said with a smile.
âWhat can father and mother possibly be worried about?â Shen Xiuqi now addressed them as father and mother rather smoothly, he looked at Su Yaya strangely.
Su Yaya smiled and leaned into his ear to whisper: âThey would be worried that youâll sneak into my room in the middle of the night.â
Shen Xiuqi: â......â
In the end, Shen Xiuqi didnât manage to persuade her. Su Yaya still refused to let him stay in her house. There was no other way, he could only stay at the farmhouse.
There were other guests and staff that were staying at the farmhouse, which made the place quite lively.
After Shen Xiuqi sent away Su Yaya and her parents, he called his second aunt, Zhang Guifang.
She picked up the call, and Zhang Guifangâs teasing voice came from the other end of the phone, âBusy man, you finally have the time to call me, how are you doing? Why didnât Yaya come to me to get her medicine this week? â
Shen Xiuqi took his phone, walked to the side of the bed and sat down, he then said, âSecond aunt, Yaya is pregnant, help me compile a list of things that a pregnant woman should be mindful of and send it to me through email. Yaya and I are now in her hometown.â
âOh, Yaya is pregnant? What great news!â Zhang Guifang had been looking forward for this child for a long time. Upon hearing that Su Yaya was pregnant, her voice was filled with joy and asked, âHow long has she been pregnant? When will you return to the city? You guys should stop by and do a checkup.â
Shen Xiuqi knew that he was still under probation, and the mission wasnât an easy one, so he said: âI donât know when exactly Iâll be heading back, but I might be staying here for quite some time. Please send me the list, this way, Iâll be able to take good care of Yaya.â
Zhang Guifang laughed, âSure enough, a person changes after having a child. It feels like youâre more sensible now. You were once such a childish man!â
