The Male Lead’s Substitute Wife - Chapter 404

Ch.404 Extremely Attentive (1)

Before Su Yaya could even answer, Zhou Zhengqi seemed to be worried that she would reject him, and quickly added: “You don’t have to give me an answer now. You should give it some thought first, and then answer me in a few days.”

Su Yaya: “.…..”

As if afraid that she would not believe him, Zhou Zhengqi emphasized himself again, as he said in an extremely sincere voice, “I really want you to be my girlfriend, I’m 100% sincere about it. I hope you can give me a chance to prove myself worthy.”

She wasn’t sure whether it was the night that affected her thinking or the original owner’s consciousness that still remained in her body. When Su Yaya heard Zhou Zhengqi’s sincere confession, her heart started beating fast.

She originally wanted to turn him down, but her subconscious didn’t let her do so, probably because Zhou Zhengqi was the original owner’s crush, that was why she felt so flustered after hearing his confession. She was both confused and freaked out and felt so nervous that not a word could be squeezed out from her, so she could only run away with her bag in her hands.

……

When she returned home that evening, Su Yaya had a night full of dreams. They were all messy dreams, with strange scenes and people. She didn’t sleep well all night and couldn’t recall anything when she woke up the next morning.

When she got to work, Su Yaya was terrified that she would bump into Zhou Zhengqi. Although the two of them did not work on the same floor, if she really bumped into him, she had no idea how to face him just yet.

Later, she went to the printing room to photocopy some materials, and overheard two of her colleagues talking about the fact that Zhou Zhengqi had gone on a business trip and would not be back in a few days. She felt relieved. Fortunately, she didn’t have to worry about running into him anymore.

A few days went by peacefully. When she was about to get off work for the day, An Qian passed a bunch of materials to Su Yaya, and told her that she had to sort them all out before she could leave work. She needed the materials for the meeting tomorrow morning, and she was about to head out to meet up with their partner company on some matters, that was why she handed the information over to Su Yaya. An Qian then left after delegating all the needed work to Su Yaya.

Seeing the pile of documents that were stacked about half-foot-high on her desk, Su Yaya could only cancel her plans after work and carried on at her desk.

She worked up until 8:30 in the evening to sort out all the information. Su Yaya stood up, stretched as she moved her sore neck, then grabbed her bag and left the office.

When she got to the entrance of the office, Su Yaya planned to take a taxi home as it was rather late at night. However, all the taxis that passed were occupied, so she stood at the front door for a long time, failing to get herself a taxi.

Maybe it was really bad luck. It suddenly started to rain, and it was a rather heavy downpour. In the blink of an eye, big raindrops fell from the sky and soaked her wet.

Su Yaya hurriedly placed her bag on her head, turned and ran back inside. Even if it was just a few steps away, when she got back into the lobby, her hair, body, and clothes were all soaked wet, water droplets dripped down from her body and she was a total mess.

Su Yaya hurriedly unzipped her bag to look for some tissues to dry her face, just then, a hand stretched out with a handkerchief, “Here, dry yourself.”

Su Yaya looked up when she heard this, and was met with a pair of bright and concerned eyes, Zhou Zhengqi looked at her, with his brows furrowed, “Why are you still here at this hour? And why are you soaking wet?”

When she saw Zhou Zhengqi, Su Yaya’s heart skipped a beat. She felt slightly nervous and flustered, she knew that this wasn’t her own feelings, but she just couldn’t control it.
