The Male Lead’s Substitute Wife

An Jiahui said apologetically, "Xiuqi, I'll go straight to the point, today I brought my little brother and his wife to apologize to you. You grew up with Yuting, and you know that Yuting can be quite stubborn at times, and is bad tempered, that's why she tends to be rather impulsive. Sometimes she does stupid things without thinking much about it. This time, it was because of her sister's attempted suicide, that's why she did what she did. She knows that she had done something really wrong, and we also feel very apologetic to you. Fortunately, neither you nor your wife was seriously injured. We are also willing to compensate you. I hope you can be the bigger person here and forgive Yuting. We promise to teach her the right ways."

"Yes, yes." With An Jiahui's words, Mother An seemed to have found the courage to speak up. She quickly added, "Xiuqi, do you remember that time when you came to my house for dinner? You loved my dumplings. When you were still together with Yutong, we really hoped that you two could……"

"Cough!" An Jiahui coughed with his hand under his chin, reminding Mother An not to speak further. After all, the Shen Xiuqi now was no longer the Shen Xiuqi he was back then. He was now married, and Su Yaya was by his side. It won't be of any good for them to mention about the past.

Mother An suddenly realized what she had just said, stopped awkwardly, and kept her silence.

An Jiahui continued: "Xiuqi, I know this is probably really hard for you. It is true that Yuting was at fault this time, but Yuting was just too foolish, please give her another chance to start over. I promise that she'll never disturb you ever again, what do you think?"

Shen Xiuqi stretched out his hand to hold Su Yaya's, as he listened expressionlessly to An Jiahui's words, and said indifferently: "Uncle An, I'm willing to meet with you guys, it's all because of our past relationship. An Yuting dared to drive towards my wife, she should've considered the serious consequences that it'll bring. My wife is still pregnant with my child. I can't forgive An Yuting. If I forgive her, I will not only be sorry to my wife, but I won't deserve to even be called a man either."

At the end of his sentence, Shen Xiuqi tightened his tone, "If it wasn't because I happened to be with her at the time, she wouldn't be as lucky. What if I wasn't by her side at the time, two lives might have been lost, do you really think I should be the bigger person and forgive her?"

"There's no need to discuss any further, the fact that I didn't imprison her for life, I've already been as kind as I possibly could, this is the punishment that she deserves."

"Xiuqi……" Mother An said sadly: "I only have two daughters. Yutong is going through some mental issues, and she doesn't recognize us anymore. She doesn't even respond even when we talk to her. Every day, she's like a lifeless body. I only have Yuting left, I beg of you, can you please do something about it, don't let her go to jail, we will send her away, and she'll never return or even show up in front of you again. If you let her go to jail, she will not survive."

Upon listening to her cries, Shen Xiuqi didn't even budge. He squeezed Su Yaya's hand tightly and said, "I would not be able to live on without my wife either, so there is no room for discussion on this matter. Please leave."

There is absolutely no room for discussion. An Jiahui also understood what Shen Xiuqi meant. The fact that he didn't go after this matter even further, he's already done the best that he could. An Yuting just had to go through a fair trial, no matter the sentence given. They could hire a good lawyer to fight for a light sentence, which is also a way out. However, If they continue to pester and disturb him, it'll be hard to tell what might happen later. With Shen Xiuqi's character, he might just do something bizarre.

After thinking about this, An Jiahui persuaded Father An and Mother An: "Let's go, let's go back and talk about it."

Father An and Mother An have always listened to An Jiahui. When he says it's time to go, even if they had other thoughts in mind, they still listened.

After Father An and Mother An left, Su Yaya looked at Shen Xiuqi and carefully inspected him, recalling the words he had just said, she asked in a serious tone: "You can't live on without me?"

"Yes." Shen Xiuqi replied without hesitation. When An Yuting drove towards her, he really thought so. At that time, there was only one thought in his mind, that is, to protect her. He can't let anything hurt her or let her be in any sort of danger.

"I believe you." Su Yaya looked at him and said.

"Yeah." He stared deeply at her, with a loving gaze. He held her hand tightly, and had no intention to ever let her go.

Su Yaya didn't say anything, her heart was full, as if it was about to overflow, with all his love and affection.

Looking into her big bright eyes, his gaze was filled with love, Shen Xiuqi reached out and pulled her into his arms as he hugged her tightly, he didn't want to ever let go.

The sun peeked into the room through the window, and the room was lit golden. The most beautiful thing was that the two of them, who were in love with each other, were together.
