The Male Lead's Substitute Wife

Chapter 146: Sharing a bowl of porridge and whatnot is very loving! (2)

They sat down on either side of the table. One large bowl of porridge sat on the table. Although the porridge looked white, a burnt flavor could still be tasted.

Su Yaya took a spoonful of porridge and put it inside her mouth. Then, her eyes curved into crescents, and she said to Chen Xiu: “It’s delicious.”

He looked at her and reached out with a blank expression. When he spooned some porridge into his own mouth, he immediately wanted to spit it out, but with Su Yaya sitting across from him, he could only swallow it down.

“It’s bitter and mushy. How is it delicious?” he asked with furrowed eyebrows. The porridge he made really didn’t taste good. Even he, himself, was disgusted.

Su Yaya glared at him. “The porridge that my husband cooked for me contains his love in it. If I say it’s delicious, then it’s delicious!”

She really knew how to coax him! Every word was like a stream of warmth flowing into his heart. The furrow between his brows eased. As though making a promise, he told her, “I’ll definitely cook it better next time!”

“Uh-huh,” she nodded. “I’ll be waiting.”

“Okay,” he said touching her head.

Never would he have thought that when he wanted to cook for her again, she would no longer be at his side.

Fortunately, he didn’t cook a lot of porridge; it was just enough to fill one and a half bowl. Su Yaya and Chen Xiuqi took turns feeding each other and finished before long.

Afterwards, Chen Xiuqi voluntarily took up dishwashing duty while Su Yaya watched on with a smile.

She waited until he finished washing everything before running over to plant a kiss on his cheek.

“My husband is so awesome~” she said smilingly.

Chen Xiuqi laughed softly and kissed her back. “My wife is very loving.”

Su Yaya giggled, her appearance reminded him of an adorable hamster. As he stroked her hair, his eyes brimmed with tenderness.

All of a sudden, Su Yaya’s phone rang. She hurriedly went to grab it. When she saw the name “Mother Su” displayed on the screen, she couldn’t help from freeze for a moment. This would be her first time coming into contact with the original owner’s parents.

It wasn’t because she was cold and didn’t want to contact them, but because she didn’t know how to. She had learned from the original novel and memories of the original owner that the original owner had a strained relationship with her parents.

Although they raised her and gave her the best life they could and spent all of the money they earned on her, the original owner was superficial and unappreciative. As she saw more of the world and the things she didn’t have, she grew resentful of her parents.

She regarded her father with disdain. He was only a regular company employee and barely made enough money to support their family. So what if her parents were kind and hardworking? What was the use of being kind and hardworking if they couldn’t provide her with a better life?

She decided that if she wanted to live the kind of life she dreamed of, she would have to take matters into her own hands. The thought made her very angry. Why couldn’t she have been born into a rich and powerful?

But after all, who could control what family they were born into? Mother and Father Su couldn’t understand their daughter’s thoughts. Why did the daughter that they worked so hard to raise turn out like this?

They’d tried to convince her to humble herself, unfortunately, she refused to listen. When they quarrelled, she told them to leave her alone and don’t call her unless it was for something important!

This left Father Su incredibly disappointed while Mother Su felt very sad. Every time she called her daughter, her calls would be ignored. Of the one time, she answered, they ended up fighting and Mother Su was upset that she stopped calling. The original owner was happy with this and continued to play around as she wished.

Therefore, after transmigrating into the original owner’s body, Su Yaya hadn’t come into any contact with her parents. As she looked at the name on the phone, Su Yaya felt conflicted.

The author has something to say...

Su Yaya: It’s burning, it’s burning!

Chen Xiuqi: Again!
