The Male Lead’s Substitute Wife

Chapter 114: Big Secret! (2)

Xu Chaoran had to take a step back from that blow, and he hit his back on the small coffee table behind him. The things on the table also came falling down in a clatter.

The corner of his mouth was buzzing with pain. Xu Chaoran licked it with his tongue and he could taste blood. Chen Xiuqi’s punch just now was so strong that it drew blood.

“You can hit me a few more times.” Xu Chaoran was smiling proudly while he pointed to his face that was slightly similar to Chen Xiuqi’s. “You can hit me here, hit me more. Anyway, I’ll be filming together with Su Yaya in a few days. Besides kiss scenes, there’ll even be sex scenes! Hahahaha!”

“You asshole!” Chen Xiuqi’s face was dark like the sky before a storm. He spat coldly, “You won’t have that chance anymore.”

After throwing that sentence down, Chen Xiuqi shot him a look of disdain as if he were looking at a bug. Without any hesitation, he turned and left. Xu Chaoran stared at his back and laughed proudly, “If you want to pull me from the male lead’s position, I’m still making you lose tens of millions. It was worth it!”

Chen Xiuqi kept walking and left without even looking back.

Xu Chaoran looked at the closed door and reached out to wipe his face. Not a hint of smugness could be seen on his handsome face at all. He didn’t feel happy to annoy Chen Xiuqi. Instead, he felt even worse.

He couldn’t help but ask himself, is this really what he wanted?

…

After Chen Xiuqi left the hotel, he went straight to his car and told the driver to drive to the hospital. Su Yaya was waiting for him in the hospital.

Su Yaya was sitting on the bed. After the doctor came to check and made sure that she wasn’t in so much pain anymore, she told her that she can be discharged today.

“Thank you, doctor.” Su Yaya didn’t like staying in the hospital, so being discharged was good.

By the time Chen Xiuqi arrived, Su Yaya was already done packing and ready to leave.

“You’re discharged already? Don’t you want to stay for another day for observations?” Chen Xiuqi felt uneasy.

Su Yaya said, “The doctor says I’m fine so I can be discharged now. I don’t like staying in the hospital either. What am I going to do here?”

Chen Xiuqi looked at her and said, “Don’t be in such a hurry. I’m going to ask the doctor.”

“Gosh, you don’t have to. The doctor already said it’s fine.” Su Yaya wanted to stop him, but Chen Xiuqi still turned and left to look for the doctor.

Su Yaya pouted her lips. He wouldn’t actually make her stay, right? She really didn’t like the hospital at all!

Fortunately, Chen Xiuqi arrived just a while later. Su Yaya was sitting on bed and she reached out to tug at his hand. “What did the doctor say?”

Chen Xiuqi said, “The doctor says you can be discharged.”

“That’s what I told you! But you still wanted to ask!” Su Yaya jumped out from bed and pulled Chen Xiuqi’s arm. She couldn’t wait to leave the hospital immediately and she urged him, “Come on, let’s go!”

Chen Xiuqi smiled and left the hospital with her hand in his.

Su Yaya followed Chen Xiuqi back to the hotel where he was staying in. Chen Xiuqi told her that he still had something to do, and told her to rest by herself for a while.

“Okay, you go do what you have to.” Su Yaya took out her phone and tapped on the screen. She smiled, “I’ll just play some games.”

Chen Xiuqi rubbed her head and said, “Have fun.”

Su Yaya was playing games in the living room while Chen Xiuqi went into the room.

Inside, he called General Manager Xiao of the Shengshi Entertainment Branch. “Pause production of ‘Flourishing Willow in the Palace’ for now.”

When he heard that, Manager Xiao was stunned. “Pre-President Chen, tens of millions have already gone into the investment of the show, why is it canceled?”

“I didn’t say it was canceled, just paused for now.” Chen Xiuqi said, “Go and tell the directors, take out Xu Chaoran as the male lead. He’s no good.”
