The Male Lead's Substitute Wife

Chapter 140: Going Public (1)

Su Yaya didn’t dare to challenge Chen Xiuqi’s authority and begrudgingly replied to his post. Moreover, to meet his requirements, she had to respond with “my boyfriend” so their mutual relationship was clear.

Although she was internally scoffing at his childishness, she didn’t show it on the outside. After all, he was the almighty domineering male lead, while she was just a little cannonfodder.

“Good.” He looked at her Weibo and was evidently satisfied. His lips curved into a proud smile.

His lovely girlfriend, her darling boyfriend. Very good!

Chen Xiuqi was now in an extremely good mood. Even a business profit of a hundred million yuan would pale in comparison to this. It was the kind of happiness that money couldn’t buy.

On the other hand, Su Yaya’s mood was heavy. This development was different from what she had read in the original novel!

Although she had transmigrated way before the plot started, the original plot had stated that the true relationship between the original owner of her body and Chen Xiuqi was never revealed to the public.

Chapter By WordExcerpt

Only a handful of key characters knew about their marriage, while most of the public believed that she was being kept by him. Even the thought of them being in a girlfriend-boyfriend relationship was deemed impossible.

After all, one was the high and mighty president of the Chen Group, an absolutely unreachable figure. The other one was merely a beautiful but unknown little starlet. The difference in their statuses was too big.

The average person assumed that the president was just indulging her for fun. In the eyes of the entertainment industry, it wasn’t uncommon for a powerful man to keep a star or two. In private, people would talk and laugh without taking it seriously.

All along, this was also what Su Yaya thought of her relationship with Chen Xiuqi.

But now their relationship was made public!!!

Countless people knew about them!!!

This, this, this... this was different from what she imagined!

What exactly went wrong? Why did Chen Xiuqi do this? Why wasn’t he following the original plot! How could he suddenly give her such a big scare???

In reality, it wasn’t Chen Xiuqi who wasn’t following the plotline. It was her. Ever since she transmigrated into the novel《The President’s Lovable Sweet Little Wife》, the plotline had begun to shift!

Furthermore, Su Yaya didn’t realize just how lazy and greedy the original owner was in the novel. After marrying Chen Xiuqi, she had numerous resources and opportunities at her fingertips. However, she didn’t want to work hard and never once thought about what she wanted to achieve. She believed that as long as she was Chen Xiuqi’s wife, she would be able to live comfortably for the rest of her life and not have to lift a single finger to do anything herself.

Not to mention, Chen Xiuqi had really doted on her in the beginning. He made sure she was happy and never made any excessive requests. The original Su Yaya enjoyed this treatment to her heart’s content and indulged in it like a frog in lukewarm water.

Slowly but surely, she lost her ability to do everyday things by herself and became a canary in a cage, completely dependent on Chen Xiuqi. Therefore, when An Yutong returned and received a great amount of resources and attention from him, the original Su Yaya panicked.

She knew how dependent she was on Chen Xiuqi and that she was just a substitute. Judging from how similar her features were to An Yutong’s features, she could immediately tell what was going on.

Realizing her position was Mrs. Chen was threatened, the original Su Yaya embarked on the road to destruction. She caused all sorts of trouble in hopes that her actions would push the couple apart.

However, contrary to her wishes, the couple only grew closer with each scheme. Finally, when she reached the end of her rope, the original Su Yaya made her final, lethal mistake: She arranged for An Yutong to be kidnapped.
