When A Cannon Fodder Has the Male Lead’s Backing (1)
Chen Xiuqi’s voice was so very gentle that for a moment, Su Yaya was almost moved to tears by his tenderness.
But she quickly came back to her senses. Chen Xiuqi’s warmth was poisonous. It was the most powerful sugar-coated bomb, a sweet put poisonous drug. The original owner of this body had also been pulled in bit by bit by his gentle demeanor.
And in the end, she played herself to her own demise after being unable to pull herself out of this. There’s no way she will be fooled by him like the original host.
For Su Yaya who had a clear grasp of her own goals, she knew herself very well and knows that she is no match for Chen Xiuqi. However, she was good at acting.
Su Yaya blinked her eyes at Chen Xiuqi and exerted the highest levels of her acting abilities, reaching out to take Chen Xiuqi’s big hand and holding it to her face. She lifted her eyes up to Chen Xiuqi and her eyes were misty.
With pursed lips, she said pitifully, “It still hurts, it still feels bad. Why did it take you so long to come? It felt so painful earlier I thought I was going to die, then I won’t be able to see you anymore. I was so scared, sob sob sob…”
Not to mention, Su Yaya actually acted out her true feelings at this moment. When she was woken up from the pain with nobody in the room, she couldn’t even find anyone to help her.
Jab after jab of pain kept springing up in her abdomen while wave after wave of heat flowed down from below her. She had the illusion that all the blood was going to drain from her body and she was going to die all alone.
Fortunately, Xu Chaoran later came over to see her and realized that something was wrong, then sent her to the hospital…
When she thought of him, Su Yaya began to feel a little sad and depressed again.
If Xu Chaoran didn’t try to get close to her for his own reasons, and sincerely wanted to be her friend, then she would also be happy to be real friends with him.
Unfortunately, he approached her with bad intentions from the beginning. Even if he said that he really wanted to be friends with her, she didn’t dare to believe him any longer.
All kinds of emotions intertwined inside of her. Su Yaya put on a very realistic performance and her appearance was so soft and tender that it really filled others with pity.
Chen Xiuqi quickly carried her into his arms and kissed her small little face before coaxing her with a soft voice, “It’s fine, don’t be sad anymore. I’m here now, right?”
“Yeah…” Su Yaya responded in a delicate voice. She wrapped her arms around his waist then rubbed her face on his chest, speaking with satisfaction, “Xiuqi, I’m not scared anymore with you here.”
Chen Xiuqi smiled when he heard that. He didn’t fly back overnight to see her in vain. He lowered his head and left another peck on her forehead before tightening his arms around her.
“What Reporter X wrote on Weibo was distorting the facts,” Su Yaya said indignantly, “Me and Xu Chaoran didn’t even do anything. I just fell into the pond when we were filming and it was Xu Chaoran who saved me because he was the closest. He also sent me to the hospital because I was sick. It’s all just a coincidence. You have to believe me, we’re not like what they said on the net at all.”
Chen Xiuqi made a sound of acknowledgment, “I know.”
“You knew?” Su Yaya looked at him with wide eyes.
Chen Xiuqi smiled and petted her head. “How would I not know when what happened between you two got so big like that? What’s more, I’ve known Xu Chaoran since before.”
Su Yaya’s heart jumped. It was just as she guessed. Xu Chaoran and Chen Xiuqi clearly had grudges with each other!
“But you don’t have to worry about that, I’ll deal with it. You just have to take good care of yourself and recover,” Chen Xiuqi said.

That would be the best. With the male lead Chen Xiuqi making his move, there’ll be nothing a cannon fodder like her will have to worry about. She was happy to be free and relaxed.
“Xiuqi, you’re the best,” Su Yaya rubbed herself on Chen Xiuqi lovingly, showing great reliance on him.
A smile curved up on Chen Xiuqi’s lips. He leaned down and kissed her at the corner of her lips.
Outside the ward, Duan Xiaoyu and Assistant Chen looked at each other. Then, smiles appeared on both their faces. As long as Su Yaya and Chen Xiuqi were both fine, then they can breathe easy.
Duan Xiaoyu’s stomach suddenly grumbled. She looked at Assistant Chen a little embarrassedly, but Assistant Chen was a very caring person. He said, “I think it’s a suitable time to celebrate with some supper. Would you like to join me?”
Duan Xiaoyu nodded. “Sure!”
Assistant Chen glanced at the two people inside the ward. Chen Xiuqi and Su Yaya were whispering to each other and didn’t need him for now. So, he looked to Duan Xiaoyu and said, “Let’s go.”
Then, the two of them left together for food.
Inside of the ward, Su Yaya had just finished acting cute with Chen Xiuqi. She rubbed her belly and said pitifully, “I’m hungry.”
“What do you want to eat?” Chen Xiuqi asked.
Su Yaya raised her chin and looked at the noodles on the table with a smile. Chen Xiuqi looked over and finally realized what that strange smell was coming from. It turns out that besides the smell of disinfectant, there was also the smell of instant noodles lingering in the room.
“There’s no nutritional value in instant noodles.” Chen Xiuqi looked at her with a serious face and said, “Why don’t I ask Assistant Chen to buy you some supper from elsewhere instead?”
Su Yaya raised up a finger and said, “I want to eat it once. Just once. It’s already been a long time since I last had it.”
When he saw how much she wanted to eat it, and staring at him with those pitiful eyes filled with pleading, Chen Xiuqi’s heart nearly melted. Silently, he sighed. He didn’t know what he was going to do with her but forget it.
What she wants is what she’ll get. It’s just eating instant noodles for one time, it’s no big deal anyway. He could just take her out to eat some delicious and nutritious food later.
“You’re only allowed to eat it this one time,” Chen Xiuqi made himself clear.
Su Yaya nodded obediently. “Mhm, just this once.”
Chen Xiuqi could only get up to bring her noodles over and placed it in front of her. “Here.”
Su Yaya opened the lid and took a deep breath. It smells so good!
“Do you want some?” After taking a bite, Su Yaya raised her head to see Chen Xiuqi watching her eat, so she asked him with a smile.
The smell of the instant noodles was really alluring, crawling straight up people’s noses and arousing their appetite. When Chen Xiuqi saw how deliciously Su Yaya was eating the noodles, he also felt a little hungry.
“I suddenly feel hungry as well. I’ll eat the other bowl.” After saying that, he walked to the table and picked up the other bowl. It was the one Duan Xiaoyu made for herself earlier.
Shen Xiuqi brought the bowl over and sat down next to Su Yaya. He opened the lid and dug in with the spoon.
The two people had their heads lowered, eating their noodles. Both of them looked up inadvertently and saw their reflections in each other’s eyes, and they couldn’t help but laugh.
It was a quiet night, and also in a hospital ward. The air was filled with the smell of disinfectant. Su Yaya was eating instant noodles together with Chen Xiuqi, but they seemed to get the illusion that they were having a feast instead.
After supper, Duan Xiaoyu and Assistant Chen brought some food back for Su Yaya and Chen Xiuqi as well. When they returned to the ward, Su Yaya and Chen Xiuqi were actually playing games together.
The two of them formed a team and temporarily recruited two more people to create a team full of experts. The four of them entered a dungeon and beat down the monsters like flowing water.

“Ahhh, Chen Xiuqi, that mini-boss tried to chop me!” Su Yaya suddenly called out, “Quick, come help!”
Chen Xiuqi calmly operated his character. He turned around and aimed towards the mini-boss and sent an ultimate skill accurately towards it, and the monster crashed to the ground.
“Ahh, you’re so amazing! How did you do that?” Su Yaya called out again.
Chen Xiuqi smirked and said, “You’re just too stupid.”
Su Yaya pouted her lips and whined. She was looked down on again.
Chen Xiuqi found an opening to take a look at her. Proudly, he said, “I’ll teach you later.”
“Okay!” Su Yaya was happy again.
Chen Xiuqi reached out to touch her head and his eyes were filled with indulgence.
After a few more minutes, Su Yaya, Chen Xiuqi, and their team finally defeated the boss and some equipment burst forth from it. Chen Xiuqi only wanted the ring, so he gave the rest to the other two members.
Chen Xiuqi said to Su Yaya, “Come to me.”
Su Yaya responded with an “Okay” and moved her character to Chen Xiuqi’s.
Chen Xiuqi said, “I’ll give you the ring I picked up just now. The ring you have now isn’t as strong as this one.”
“Sure. Thanks!” Su Yaya said to him cheerfully.
While trading the ring to Su Yaya, Chen Xiuqi said, “Actually, the effects of this ring is just so-so. Hold onto it first, I’ll get you a better one next time.”
Su Yaya tilted her head and looked at him. “I want a big one. The biggest and strongest one!”
Chen Xiuqi turned to look at her. seemingly having thought of something, a playful smile emerged at the corners of his lips. “Alright. I’ll get you the biggest and most powerful ring next time.”
When Assistant Chen who was standing at the side saw this scene, his mouth twitched. He almost couldn’t recognize his boss anymore. He didn’t even know his boss knew how to play games, and even played this well. This was completely different from the boss he usually followed around!
Su Yaya and Chen Xiuqi played another two rounds before it really got too late, and finally stopped when it was time for rest.
“Rest early,” Chen Xiuqi told her.
Su Yaya looked at him. “I want to be discharged.”
“The doctor says you need to stay in the hospital for observation,” Chen Xiuqi responded.
Su Yaya pursed her lips. “Okay then…”
Assistant Chen had booked a presidential suite at a five-star hotel not far away from the hospital and that was where Chen Xiuqi was going to sleep. Su Yaya still had to stay in the hospital for observations so she couldn’t leave for now. When he was about to leave, Chen Xiuqi told her, “Sleep early, I’ll come and see you tomorrow.”
“Okay, muah~” Su Yaya gave Chen Xiuqi a finger heart.
Chen Xiuqi smiled and pinched her cheek. “I’m going now.”
“Bye-bye. You have to come see me earlier tomorrow, okay?” Su Yaya waved her hands reluctantly at Chen Xiuqi.
“Alright, I’ll come earlier tomorrow,” Chen Xiuqi responded with a smile. Then, he left with Assistant Chen.
Early the next morning, Chen Xiuqi went straight to the hotel where the crew was staying as soon as he woke up. Assistant Chen had already called Yu Hui, and he had been waiting at the entrance. When he saw Chen Xiuqi arrive, he quickly went over to greet him.
“Bring me to Xu Chaoran,” Chen Xiuqi said with a straight face.
Yu Hui did not dare to say no. He quickly took Chen Xiuqi to the elevator and went to room 8020 on the eighth floor.
Standing at the entrance, Yu Hui knocked on the door. It was the assistant Xiao Wei who opened the door, and he froze when he saw who was standing outside.
Xu Chaoran was still wearing his pajamas. When he saw Chen Xiuqi, his lips curled up. “You came early.”
