THE MALE LEAD'S SUBSTITUTE WIFE

C104-106

He Has His Own Judgement (2)

If An Yuting had not come to him today and told him this, he wouldn’t have known.

He admits that he was extremely angry when he heard that Su Yaya was together with Xu Chaoran. He had long reminded her to stay away from Xu Chaoran, but would never expect that she would completely disregard his words. This woman is just so naughty, she should be caught and brought back for a hard lesson.

But these annoying thoughts all dispersed as soon as he saw Su Yaya’s playful requests to be comforted. Instead, they were replaced with heartache for her.

He was not affected by the words written by Reporter X, nor the comments left by the netizens and fans on the internet, much less what An Yuting told him. He had his own judgment.

Even if he had a knot with Xu Chaoran, and even if Su Yaya really appeared quite close with Xu Chaoran, the first thing he thought when he saw those photos were that Su Yaya had fallen into the water, Su Yaya had gotten sick, but the one to save her was actually Xu Chaoran!

He didn’t blame her, he just felt sad, and even wondered right now, how was she doing? She also didn’t give him a call. She could have at least called to cry to him, or even just a complaint was fine!

He was just about to instruct Assistant Chen to suppress the negative comments towards Su Yaya on the net, but the instant he received Su Yaya’s messages, a wonderful feeling washed through his heart.

Every single message she sent him was just as flirty and playful as he remembered. They were filled with attachment to him. His heart quickly softened, so much so that it had almost melted.

“Assistant Chen, book a ticket for me,” Chen Xiuqi instructed. He wanted to see Su Yaya.

“Yes,” Assistant Chen responded. He opened up the ticket booking app on his phone and began booking tickets for Chen Xiuqi.

While Assistant Chen was booking the flight, Chen Xiuqi called another person he knew. Not for anything else, but just to deal with the disparaging comments toward Su Yaya. He told that person, “Tell someone to deal with those comments. You know better than me what should be done. And that Reporter X guy, get him to stop. All he does all day is make up false remarks.”

The person on the other side laughed. “President Chen! You’re getting mad for a woman?”

Chen Xiuqi’s face darkened. “Are you doing it or not? I can look for someone else. There’s plenty of people out there willing to take the job.”

There was no way the person on the other end of the line would dare to say no. Not only would he get money when the job was done, he would even deepen his connection with Chen Xiuqi. He quickly said, “I’ll get to it right now. I’ll definitely do a good job for you.”

“Alright. I’m hanging up.” After he was done, Chen Xiuqi hung up.

In less than half an hour, Reporter X deleted his post on Weibo. Very quickly, another clarification post went up.

Reporter X: “Su Yaya and Xu Chaoran are really just apprentice brothers and sisters. Su Yaya accidentally fell into the water during filming and Xu Chaoran was the closest to her, that was why he was the first to jump in and save her. Su Yaya got sick because of this so Xu Chaoran took her to the hospital out of care as colleagues. There’s no other meaning behind it. It was me who posted without checking things first, causing everyone a great misunderstanding. I also caused them great distress. I want to make a deep apology now to both Su Yaya and Xu Chaoran. I hope they can forgive me. Sorry.”

He Has His Own Judgement (3)

After the clarification and apology post from Reporter X was sent out, there was an uproar on Weibo. Some people were asking why he was apologizing. Was he bribed to change his tune? There were some who came to scold him for posting without even investigating. He really caused a big mess to those involved!

As for these questions and insults, Reporter X did not respond to a single one of them. After posting up the apology, that person went offline and never appeared again.

But the number of page views also came and went with the flow. Followed by Reporter X’s clarification and apology post on Weibo, many people began riding the winds as soon as it came out, chiming in that Su Yaya and Xu Chaoran had been framed. They were just the very best of friends and colleagues. With that, the sails of the rest of the netizens had changed directions as well.

Originally, Xu Chaoran’s agent Brother Wang was still having a headache over the mess he caused with Su Yaya. He was going through his connections, trying to suppress the uproar caused by Reporter X’s post on Weibo.

But who knew that in the blink of an eye, which was as long as it took him to make a phone call, the winds had already switched directions, and rapidly at that. It didn’t take much more than a blink when all the dust settled for Xu Chaoran and Su Yaya. It didn’t take much longer for everything to just go away completely, which was a bit hard to believe.

“What happened here?” Brother Wang froze for a moment. However, he quickly came back to his senses. Someone made a move.

He asked a lot of people for help before and made a lot of calls, but those people either tried to push him to someone else or just laughed it off. Nobody would give him a straight answer telling him that they could solve the problem. However, in less than two hours, everything changed. If you were to say that nobody had done anything deliberately, then he definitely wouldn’t believe it.

If everything wasn’t settled from his side, then it must be on Su Yaya’s end. But Su Yaya’s agent, Zhou Peiyun was not much different from him. After what happened, she quickly called to apologize before asking him for help to deal with the issue. That was why such a big move definitely couldn’t have come from Zhou Peiyun.

However, Brother Wang’s mind moved fast. He quickly rushed to call and inquire for news and soon heard something shocking. It was Chen Xiuqi who made the move.

When he heard this news, he was shocked. Turns out the rumors between Su Yaya and Chen Xiuqi were real. In that case, he had to remind Xu Chaoran not to do anything stupid.

But at this moment, Xu Chaoran whom Brother Wang was thinking about warning was currently staying with Su Yaya while she had her infusion.

“Do you feel better now? Are you hungry? Do you want anything to eat?” Xu Chaoran stood next to her bed and looked at Su Yaya with concern.

Su Yaya responded, “I’m feeling better. I’m not hungry either, I don’t need food.”

Xu Chaoran nodded and said, “Once your infusion is done, you’ll be able to go back to the hotel.”

Su Yaya remembered the mess on the web and said, “Why don’t you go back with your assistant first? After I’m done here, Xiaoyu will accompany me back.”

Xu Chaoran smiled when he heard that. Are you worried about those rumors on the internet? Things have already happened, it’s too late for us to avoid them now.”

Su Yaya paused for a moment before replying, “I just don’t want things to get bigger and bigger. We can still save things as they are now.”

Xu Chaoran laughed and said, “Are you worried that your boyfriend will get angry?”

“Huh?” Su Yaya looked at him in surprise.

Xu Chaoran said, “I just saw you sending a message to Chen Xiuqi.”

Su Yaya, “…”

The author has something to say: Alright fine, President Chen didn’t get angry. He’s just heartbroken.
