The Male Lead's Substitute Wife

Chapter 84: Tomato and Egg Noodles (2)

“Sorry, my phone ran out of battery.” Su Yaya didn’t dare tell Zhou Peiyun the real reason behind this. She vaguely explained and tried to move past this.

Zhou Peiyun wanted to sigh while looking at her. When she couldn’t get ahold of him, she thought that she wanted to quit the job again.

“Do you know that you have to take a makeup photos?” Zhou Peiyun reminded her.

Su Yaya was stunned. Don’t mention it but she really didn’t know.

The moment Zhou Peiyun saw her expression, she knew she didn’t know either. She told Su Yaya the location and time.

“Ok, I will remember this.” Su Yaya said.

Zhou Peiyun continued to say, “Two days later, you will be entering the cast and beginning to film your scenes. You would end up staying in S City for a few months and I can’t follow you every day. The company arranged an assistant for you and they will come tomorrow. The assistant will be paid by the company. This is what the boss said.”

She especially emphasized that it was the boss. She was just taking into consideration of Chen Xiuqi’s face. If he didn’t support her, how would Su Yaya be able to get the second female lead role of this huge TV show? The company would definitely not even arrange an assistant for her.

Su Yaya nodded and said, “I know. Thank you, Sister Zhou.”

After going over everything, Zhou Peiyun was much more relaxed now. Only the Heavens would know how fantic and anxious she was when she couldn’t find Su Yaya. She was afraid that she might delay the matters again. After all, tomorrow’s makeup photos would be very important.

“What’s the smell?” After Zhou Peiyun calmed down, she had a sharp nose and smell food.

Su Yaya said, “It’s tomato and egg noodles.”

“Wow, just in time. I haven’t eaten lunch yet because I was too busy finding you. Can I eat this?” Zhou Peiyun walked to the dining table in a few steps and took in the aroma of the tomato and egg noodles. She was drooling.

While they were speaking, the noodles had been placed there for a while. It wasn’t as delicious as when it was first cooked. Su Yaya nodded and said, “Go ahead. I’ll go cook another bowl.”

Zhou Peiyun was shocked. “When did you learn to cook? How come I didn’t know?”

Su Yaya blinked her eyes and answered seriously, “I always knew how to. You just never asked me before.”

“Is that so?” Zhou Peiyun thought back. Did she really not ask him before? But she had a lot to do and she was always busy. She couldn’t remember whether she asked him if she could cook before or not.

Su Yaya went to the kitchen to cook another bowl of noodles again. Zhou Peiyun took a mouthful of tomato and egg noodles and her eyes brightened. Wow. It was delicious. She didn’t know if something was wrong with her taste buds or she really felt like it was the taste in her childhood. Just like when her mother cooked tomato and egg noodles for her.

She couldn’t believe this at all. She hurriedly grabbed her chopsticks and had another two bites. It was indeed the taste of her childhood. It wasn’t a mistake. It was really good. She was so touched that she was about to cry.

She ate mouthful after mouthful of noodles. She originally wasn’t that hungry but she felt hungrier the more she ate. She just wanted to eat some more.

Su Yaya finished cooking another bowl of noodles and brought it out. Zhou Peiyun was almost done eating. She raised her head and said to Su Yaya, “Your noodles are great. I want to have another bowl.”

“Sister Zhou...” Su Yaya helplessly looked at Zhou Peiyun. She didn’t eat yet. She was very hungry too!

“Nevermind.” Zhou Peiyun waved her hands, unable to endure Su Yaya’s gaze. She abandoned her thought and started to finish up the noodles in her bowl.

Su Yaya held the bowl of noodles and sat across from her. She ate slowly and it felt like this was a scene coming out of a drawing. She was at the top of the world, yet she knew how to cook.

Zhou Peiyun was touched at the moment. She took a picture of Su Yaya and then a picture of the empty bowl in front of her. Then, she added filters and uploaded it to Weibo.

Manager Zhou Peiyun: This is the tomato and egg noodles that Yaya cooked. It’s delicious and nutritious. Su Yaya elegantly eating the noodles.jpg. Empty bowl.jpg.

Right now, no matter big or small celebrities, they enjoyed posting pictures of them eating food, so that people would think they are foodies.

In reality, however, the pictures were purposefully taken for show. In order for celebrities to look nice on camera, they would maintain their figures. Despite how skinny they might be, they wanted to be skinnier.

There were some celebrities who exaggerated and said that they hadn’t had a full meal for a few years in order to keep the fitures. They counted the grains of rice and refused to eat meat. They cooked the vegetables with water and didn’t even dare to put salt in. There was no flavor in their lives. How could they really act like foodies and eat all they want?

Therefore, it was really rare for someone like Su Yaya to finish eating a huge bowl of noodles.

Zhou Peiyun posted pictures of Su Yaya eating noodles on Weibo and this attracted many people’s attention right away. Plus, the pictures didn’t seem purposeful. Instead, she was really eating the noodles. The tomato and egg noodles made them ravenous and they drooled. She seemed much more realistic than the celebrities pretending to be foodies.

Because it was real, people liked her. Within a while, there were hundreds of comments under Zhou Peiyun’s Weibo and thousands forwarded her post. One could see the rapid increase and bystanders had brought the post to the hot search!
