The Male Lead's Substitute Wife

Ch.213 Birthday Gift (1)

When Su Yaya woke up in the second morning, Chen Xiuqi had gone to work. He had been pretty busy with the matters in his company and he went to work really early each day.

While Su Yaya was at home, Chen Xiuqi tried his best to complete all his work at the company during the day and then try to get off work early, so he could personally go pick up Su Yaya. Then, the two would cuddle up to each other for the night.

Today was Chen Xiuqi’s birthday. Su Yaya promised to prepare a present for him yesterday. According to the original plan, Su Yaya got out of bed and then tidied up the room before turning her laptop on and going online. She bought a few necessary things online and picked express delivery. Not long later, she received the package.

Su Yaya prepared to cook a sumptuous dinner for Chen Xiuqi. Steak and red wine were essential to this, and she also needed to prepare dessert.

That afternoon, Chen Xiuqi returned home after he finished work. He was entering the password outside the door when he noticed that it was locked from the inside.

He couldn’t open the door and that made him knit his eyebrows. While thinking about what Su Yaya was doing inside, he knocked on the door.

After a few seconds, Su Yaya’s beautiful voice rang and then she opened the door from inside. Su Yaya was wearing a maid outfit and she smiled, bowing and saying, “Hubby, you must be tired. Happy birthday.”

Chen Xiuqi glanced at her outfit and was stunned. Then, he understood that this was the birthday gift she prepared for him. No wonder she had to lock the door from inside. She was planning on specially opening the door for him. He glanced at her from top to bottom and then his gaze landed on her bow. He couldn’t help but curl his lips up. Interesting!

“Hubby, welcome home.” Su Yaya reached over and pulled him in. She grabbed his briefcase and placed it to the side. Then, she bent down and changed his shoes for him.

Chen Xiuqi was served by her the entire time and he tried his best to act calm. There wasn’t any expression on his handsome face, but he was incredibly delighted in his heart.

“Dinner is prepared. Hubby, please come with me.” Su Yaya pulled on his sleeves and led him towards the restaurant.

Chen Xiuqi followed behind her without saying anything. Then he saw the beautiful and flowery tablecloth spread on the long table and in the center of it, there were candles, red wine, goblets, and a large bouquet of lilies.

“It looks pretty good.” Chen Xiuqi’s eyes brightened at the arrangement in front of him and smiled.

“Thank you hubby. Please sit down first.” Su Yaya pulled the chair over and indicated for Chen Xiuqi to sit down.

Chen Xiuqi sat down and glanced at her. He wanted to see what she was going to do next.

“Wait a moment. I’m going to get water.” Su Yaya turned around to get warm water and a towel, so that he would wash his hands. Chen Xiuqi allowed her to do what she wanted.

When everything was ready, Su Yaya went to the kitchen to bring out two plates of steaks. The two sat on either side of the long table. Su Yaya picked up the red wine and poured it into the two goblets. One for Chen Xiuqi and one for herself.

She raised the goblet and glanced at Chen Xiuqi who was sitting across from her. She revealed a charming smile and said in a soft and sweet voice, “I hope hubby has a good birthday and your wishes come true!”

“Wishes come true!” Chen Xiuqi enjoyed this very much. He also wanted what he was thinking about to come true. His smile grew bigger and bigger. He raised his goblet and clinged it against hers.
