The Male Lead's Substitute Wife

Ch.211 Don’t Make Me Jealous (3)

“It hurts.” Su Yaya knitted her eyebrows and pursed her lips, acting pitiful.

“If you know it hurts, don’t say nonsense!” Chen Xiuqi said with a dark face, warning her.

“I know, I know.” Su Yaya casually said half-heartedly. Yet in her heart, she was thinking that he was her sugar daddy. It’s not like she said it wrong. Hehe.

It took her almost half an hour to rinse and wash. Su Yaya rubbed her stomach and said to Chen Xiuqi, I’m hungry.”

Chen Xiuqi raised his eyebrows. “Did you eat lunch?”

Su Yaya said, “I did.”

“What did you eat?” Chen Xiuqi asked again.

Su Yaya replied, “Crackers and milk.”

Chen Xiuqi’s expression became unwell. He pinched her face hard and then said unhappily, “Look at how you’re treating yourself. You’re not even eating lunch properly? Did you skip breakfast as well?”

Su Yaya glanced at him and asked, “How did you know?”

Chen Xiuqi humphed. He could tell. If she was able to sleep the entire day and only wake up right now, she mustn’t have taken her meals seriously. She wasn’t a good girl.

“Quickly tidy up. I’m taking you to eat outside.” Chen Xiuqi said.

Su Yaya was surprised. Chen Xiuqi actually didn’t tell her to cook, but instead was taking her outside to eat. That was great.

“Where are we going to eat?” Su Yaya hurriedly walked over to grab onto his arms.

Chen Xiuqi retorted, “Where do you want to eat?”

Su Yaya tilted her head and thought about it, saying, “I want porridge.”

“Ok.” Chen Xiuqi said, “I know a store that makes great porridge. Let’s go there.”

“Mhm.” Su Yaya nodded happily. She hurriedly went to change her clothes and put makeup on, and then followed Chen Xiuqi out.

They were going to a restaurant called Yue Porridge. The pork chop porridge, fresh shrimp porridge, preserved egg and pork rice porridge, and mushroom and chicken shred porridge were very well-known. They were also known for all sorts of food like custard bun, steamed bun stuffed with braised pork, mushroom bun, pumpkin cake, golden sponge cake, etc. were very tasty too.

While eating, Su Yaya came up with an idea. “When I go film 《Gourmet Food and Beautiful Guests》tomorrow, I might as well make porridge and steamed buns.”

Chen Xiuqi took a sip of the porridge and raised his head to look at her, saying, “It’ll be bizarre if you could win by making those things!”

Su Yaya was displeased with his words. She humphed and retorted, unresigned. “If you don’t believe me, let’s find out tomorrow!”

The corner of Chen Xiuqi’s lips curled up and he faintly smiled, saying, “Ok, I’ll be waiting.”

Su Yaya pouted and then murmured in her heart. A man who lacks taste.

She took a harsh bite of the fresh steamed meat bun after picking it up with her chopsticks. The skin was soft and there was a lot of meat. The juice was tasty. The whole thing was delicious.

The more she thought about it, the more she thought the idea was achievable. Su Yaya finished the food and then she immediately picked up her phone to call Sun Lei. She told him that she was going to change her menu. She didn’t want to cook the three dishes that she had settled with before. She wanted to make pork chop porridge, steamed buns, and crispy shrimp pastry.

The guests who attended 《Gourmet Food and Beautiful Guests》in the past all liked to cook all sorts of fancy dishes. That way, it would look delicious and attract everyone’s attention as well. When the evaluation committee was judging their dishes, they were more likely to obtain higher scores. There has never been someone who came to this show and said that they wanted to make porridge and buns. Sun Lei thought this was refreshing and very interesting, so she immediately agreed.

“I think this suggestion is pretty good. I’ll have someone prepare the ingredients for you right now.” Sun Lei thought that this could work, so he immediately had someone arrange this.

“Then thank you.” Su Yaya said happily.

After the call, Su Yaya raised her eyebrows at Chen Xiuqi and said proudly, “Look, even the producer thinks that my idea is great. I can definitely win the competition tomorrow.”

Chen Xiuqi placed the spoon down and then looked at her gently. “Since this is the case, I’ll hope that you can win in advance.”

Su Yaya was delighted and then she smiled, saying, “That’s more like it.”
