The Male Lead’s Substitute Wife

"It's not a dodgy product, is it?" Su Yaya asked carefully.

"What gave you that impression?" Zhou Peiyun said. "They're a big brand manufacturer who follows the regulations. They even have brand counters in all the major fashion stores and well-known shopping malls."

"That's good, then." Su Yaya was worried that she might receive bad advert gigs and do the consumers wrong. It's hard to gain popularity these days, so she still had to be responsible for her fans. She couldn't just casually take up an endorsement gig just because of money.

"So, are you taking this or not?" Zhou Peiyun asked.

"Yes, I'm taking it!" Just thinking all that money, five million in endorsement fees was enough to make Su Yaya agree. "But I need to test out the product first."

"Sure, I'll tell them," Zhou Peiyun responded.

And so, after contacting the company, Zhou Peiyun received a response very soon. It was indeed possible for Su Yaya to try out the products, so they sent her one set to sample.

Su Yaya had never used this brand of skincare in the past so she brought it home and tried it for a few days. It felt okay and the moisturizing effects were passable. So, she sent the feedback to Zhou Peiyun.

The next day, Su Yaya and Zhou Peiyun went over to sign the endorsement contract. Then, they arranged the shoot.

……

Very soon, it was time for another episode of "Gourmet and Beauty". When Su Yaya arrived with her assistant, Duan Xiaoyu, they realized that the host had changed. Sis Hui was no longer here, instead, it was a younger lady called Peng Mingzhen.

Peng Mingzhen's hosting skills were also very good and she had always been fighting hard against Sis Hui on Apple Channel. This time, knowing that she could host "Gourmet and Beauty" on Sis Hui's behalf, she was certainly over with joy.

She had also investigated the matter secretly and found out why she was invited to host "Gourmet and Beauty". Who asked Sis Hui to be so blind? She offended someone she shouldn't have!

Therefore, when Peng Mingzhen saw Su Yaya, she decided that she would never make Su Yaya look bad. All the questions she needed to ask were prepared beforehand anyway, so she actively communicated with Su Yaya before filming so that they could achieve a tacit understanding during the recording. She would never be as stupid as Sis Hui, deliberately asking Su Yaya such terrible things just for the sake of ratings.

The entire recording for the program went by smoothly without a single hiccup in between. Su Yaya felt very happy about it as well. It wasn't as difficult as last time. She answered all the questions, finished all three dishes, and the crew brought the dishes up to the judges to taste. Everyone agreed that all three dishes she made were very delicious. In the end, just like the last episode, she was given four points. The audience that had participated in the judging process had also given her a very high score, she managed to win the contest again.

Actually, Su Yaya had only realized after everything was over that the reason she was able to win the contest so smoothly must have been because the audience cared about her and gave her a high score because of how popular she was recently!

It was good she could win the contest because she would be able to participate in the next episode. Just thinking about it made her feel pleasant. She loved cooking delicious food and also enjoyed participating in "Gourmet and Beauty".

Chen Xiuqi had already received the Kashmir Sapphire he won for 5.2 million yuan. Everything was going great according to his plans.

On this day, he made an appointment with the best jewelry designer and his best friend, Mia. He asked her to design the perfect engagement ring for him.

Mia had already been designing jewelry for twenty years now and had a lot of experience. The moment she saw this blue gem as blue as the ocean, her eyes lit up. She praised how beautiful the gemstone was, saying this was the most beautiful one she had seen in all these years. She would definitely be able to live up to his expectations and design the most beautiful engagement ring for him.

"I'll leave this in your hands then," Chen Xiuqi said sincerely to her.

Mia smiled at him and gave him an OK sign. "Don't worry, just leave it to me no problem."

"Alright." A smile emerged on Chen Xiuqi's handsome face. "I'll be looking forward to your masterpiece."
