The Male Lead's Substitute Wife

Chapter 164: Anyway, It’s Sweet. You Know How It Is (1)

The shoot for the skincare advertisement ended very soon and the five million endorsement fee was deposited to her very soon. Su Yaya received a large sum of money again.

During this time, Su Yaya did many advertising gigs in succession, and the numbers in her bank account were constantly rising. Every time she secretly looked at the numbers on her bank account, she would feel happy for a long time.

She came from a small county where everything had cheap prices. With just three or four million, you could purchase a large villa. The houses in the countryside were even cheaper. She wanted to buy a farmhouse hotel in the suburbs after returning in the future. It would be best to have a pond in the front yard for people to feed the fishes, the ducks, and the geese. Then, she can plant some vegetables at the back. She can eat it herself or use them to entertain guests. It will be the same as her life in the countryside when she was young. Then, every weekend, she would receive a few waves of city people traveling to the suburbs to loosen up. That would definitely be perfect.

Su Yaya calculated it a little. If she bought a simple farmhouse and save some money to support her in her later years, then she just barely had enough money in her card right now. But of course, if she divorced Chen Xiuqi, then he can definitely give her more money for alimonies. That would be even better. Then she could make the farmhouse a little bigger so she can attract more customers, and that would definitely change how much she can earn as well. It will also allow her to save up for her pension.

Actually it wasn’t as if she was trying so hard to earn money, to butter up Chen Xiuqi and not send herself off to her death or not make him angry for no reason. She was actually very afraid that Chen Xiuqi would not give her any alimony when they divorced. Even though it was a small possibility, Chen Xiuqi had always been very generous to her after all. Ten million in cash was nothing to him. But she was just worried because any changes can possibly create a change in the plotline. If she doesn’t get the money in her hands, then it’s not real money!

This may have something to do with her life experiences when she was young. Su Yaya had always believed that if you relied on someone, that someone could run away. If you relied on a mountain, the mountain could fall. So, it’s better to depend on yourself than anyone else. Considering all aspects of the situation, she preferred to put her confidence in herself and rely solely on it. She will take away what Chen Xiuqi could possibly give her and leave that to the side. Earning more money for herself just means better security.

The two episodes of “Gourmet and Beauty” that Su Yaya participated in have already been broadcast, and the ratings have reached a new high. The entire crew was very happy and decided to celebrate, and Producer Sun Lei had specially given a call to Su Yaya to inform her.

“Miss Su, this is Sun Lei. We have reached new record highs for our two episodes in the program. The entire crew is overjoyed and the channel has awarded us with a bonus. We’ve decided to gather at Nanbin Hotel tonight at eight. You have to come.”

Su Yaya just happened to be free tonight, so she accepted Sun Lei’s invitation easily.” Sure. I’ll definitely be there.”

“Good, good.” Sun Lei was very happy that he managed to invite Su Yaya. His good mood could even be heard through his voice. “When you reach the hotel just give me a call. I’ll come get you.”

“Okay,” Su Yaya responded.

And so the two agreed on a plan that night. Sun Lei hung up.

Su Yaya called Chen Xiuqi with her phone and told him that she would be participating in a dinner party tonight.

After two rings, Chen Xiuqi picked up. A deep, pleasing voice like that of a cello emerged from the receiver. “Yaya?”

“Xiuqi.” Su Yaya said, “The crew for ‘Gourmet and Beauty’ called me and invited me for a dinner party tonight.”

A pause could clearly be detected from Chen Xiuqi’s side. Only then did he answer, “Do you want to go?”

Sun Yaya responded with a hum meaning yes, and said, “Producer Sun called himself to invite me. I think it would be better for me to go.”
