The Male Lead's Substitute Wife

Chapter 310 Sympathy (3)

An Yutong was even more surprised by this, she never thought that Shen Xiuqi would protect Su Yaya until this extent. She had never seen this side of Shen Xiuqi before.

An Yutong said: “Xiuqi, how is it possible that it’ll die down in a few days, it’s impossible, it’s affecting us a lot.”

Shen Xiuqi knew that she was in a poor mental state now and didn’t want to argue with her: “ You don’t have to worry so much about this, the netizens will forget about this in a few days, you should have some rest, I’ll ask my driver to send you home.”

An Yutong shook her head and begged: “Can I stay here a while longer? I feel safer here.”

Something felt off about her words, Shen Xiuqi glanced at An Yutong, then looked at Suyaya. He saw that Suyaya had a cold expression plastered on her face, he then rejected: “It’s not very convenient for us now, I’ll call my driver to send you back now.”

An Yutong heard as he mercilessly chased her away, tears streamed down, a weak and pitiful look appeared on her face, and she sadly said: “Do you hate me this much now? Didn’t you promise me before, that you will always protect me under any circumstances? Xiuqi, do you still remember that? You promised that you will be by my side for the rest of my life, and travel to places that I want to visit, did you forget all this?”

When Su Yaya heard what An Yutong had said, she glanced briefly at An Yutong and stared at Shen Xiuqi, her gaze implied: “Aiyo, turns out you two have such an agreement, how come I’m not aware of this. You didn’t even promise to take me anywhere!”

Shen Xiuqi looked at her, he was frustrated and wanted so badly to just send An Yutong away.

With a solemn expression: “I almost forgot about that, it’s meaningless to mention all these promises now. I hope you won’t come and interfere with my life ever again. I’ll ask the driver to send you home now.”

He might have been way too harsh, An Yutong couldn’t stand such a huge strike. She immediately stood up and yelled at Shen Xiuqi: “I don’t need your driver, you will regret treating me like this! Shen Xiu Qi!”

She then turned around, opened the door and ran out without turning back.

Su Yaya saw as Shen Xiuqi froze in the spot, and had no intention to chase after her. Su Yaya went forward and nudged him, “She is having an emotional outbreak, don’t you want to check on her? What if anything happens to her?”

Shen Xiuqi wasn’t convinced by Su Yaya, and looked at her angrily: “Why should I go after her? She’s the one who’s not taking care of herself, even if she did get into some sort of accident, she deserves it. I was already clear about my stance, she’s the stubborn one, what can I possibly do about it then?”

Su Yaya looked at him: “Is it me or you’re being really cruel? So it’s true, when couples fall in love, they love each other all their life. When that’s over, they’re just as worthless as a strand of grass.”

Shen Xiuqi noticed the hidden meanings in her words, sighed, and held her firmly in his arms, he kissed her forehead, and said: “Don’t overthink. If I was too nice to her, she’ll just assume that I’m giving her a second chance and will not give up on me, how would you feel about that? If I’m harsh towards her, she’ll know that there’s no chance of it happening, there’s no going back. Otherwise, if she continues to focus on this, it’ll be bad for us, what do you think?”

His words did seem reasonable, Su Yaya decided to go along with him.
