Rebirth Of The Villainess: Young Master Lu's Wicked Wife
Chapter 182 - The Birthday Banquet (1)
Chapter 182 - The Birthday Banquet (1)
Along with the passage of time, Su Xiaofei's following days seemed to have been filled with peace. With the news of Chen Li's imprisonment and Su Haoran being sued in court by her mother and Bluemedia for embezzlement, it only improved her good mood.
Heh, let those fools enjoy the storm of clouds gathered over their heads. Since they had the guts to scheme against her and her mother, they better be aware of the consequences of such actions when they were revealed to the public.
When the news about Su Haoran being sued by his wife and Bluemedia went out, Ye Mingyu stopped coming to school, as if she was avoiding being looked down on by others. While she loved being the center of everyone's attention, she certainly didn't want to be seen in a bad light!
Su Xiaofei knew this, but would she bother to hide herself because of the storm that just hit her father? No way. She continued to attend the academy, ignoring the looks being thrown at her, as if it didn't bother her one bit. No one had the guts to confront her anyway. Even Yang Jing, the known troublemaker in their class, didn't dare to tease her.
Just as she was enjoying her day, she received a message from Lu Qingfeng, informing her that Mo Yuan was scheduled to arrive today and asked her if she wanted to meet the young man.
Su Xiaofei stared blankly at her phone for a long time, so it attracted Xi Qian's attention.
"What's wrong, Feifei? Did something happen again?" Xi Qian asked. Of course she had heard about Chen Li's imprisonment and the news about Su Haoran embezzling the funds of Bluemedia. She feared that Su Xiaofei would be blamed for it.
"No. It's Xiao Feng asking me out." Su Xiaofei gave her best friend a reassuring look.
Xi Qian blinked at that before a deep frown appeared on her face.
"I've been meaning to ask this, Feifei. What's going on between you and Lu Qingfeng? Are you seeing each other? Is this why he's awfully kind to me lately?"
This made Su Xiaofei laugh behind her hand. Just looking at Xi Qian's serious face was enough to remind her of the deal she had made with her when they were younger.
"Calm down, Qian. Xiao Feng and I don't have that kind of relationship." She said truthfully, while Xi Qian narrowed her eyes in suspicion.
"Not in a relationship, or is it not 'yet?'" She emphasized the last word. Xi Qian didn't believe one bit that there was no attraction between the two.
Su Xiaofei only gave her a meaningful smile and shook her head. Things between her and Lu Qingfeng, there's no need to rush it. They would allow it to bloom on its own if they were destined to be together.
"It's nothing like that, Qian. I asked Xiao Feng for a favor recently, and he was just informing me that the one I've been waiting for has just arrived. He's asking me if I want to see it today." She explained, without revealing that she was supposed to meet Mo Yuchen's younger brother.
"So you aren't going on a date?" Xi Qian raised a slender brow at her.
"What date? Qian, you will be the first to know if I'm seeing someone."
"It's good that you remember, Feifei. Whether it is Lu Qingfeng or another man, you have to tell me, alright?" Xi Qian insisted.
"Alright. Alright. I promise. Now, let me drop you off at your workplace, before I see Xiao Feng."
Once Su Xiaofei parted with Xi Qian, she met Lu Qingfeng near the airport. She hadn't failed to notice that many young women were stealing glances at Lu Qingfeng, but he only looked at his book as if he couldn't be bothered by their stares.
"Am I late?" Su Xiaofei asked as she rushed to take a seat across from Lu Qingfeng, who was currently enjoying his drink.
"No. Still early. We need to wait for another hour for his arrival." The young man replied, waving a hand to call for the waiter, knowing Su Xiaofei would want something to eat while waiting.
They were seated at a strategically good position to see the exit of the airport. They would be able to see every person leaving the place. An hour passed by with the two busy reading books and magazines, and when it was almost time, Su Xiaofei and Lu Qingfeng glanced at the exit of the airport.
Finally, they found the person they'd been waiting for. The young man, almost the same age as Su Xiaofei exited the airport with a middle-aged woman clinging on his arm with a wide smile on her face. Su Xiaofei had no doubt that they were Mo Yuan and his mother, Lan Xiaoju.
It was definitely Mo Yuan, because she felt that he was somewhat familiar, as if she had seen or met him somewhere. In her memory, she always thought about Mo Yuchenthat she rarely paid attention to others. Perhaps she had met Mo Yuan before without knowing that he was Mo Yuchen's little brother before they got married.
This young man looked high-spirited, glowing with youth and vigor. He was sporting a huge smile that could make people feel warm on his face, so far from the frigid, cold countenance of his elder brother.
"Feifei, are you aware of the banquet the Yun family is going to host in two weeks?" She suddenly heard Lu Qingfeng ask.
"En. What about it?" She questioned in return.
"Our family received a formal invitation to attend. I suppose the Mo family should have received one too by now. Are you planning to go with Mo Yuchen, or do I still have a chance to steal his place?"
Su Xiaofei glanced at his face, her lips curling up.
"I'll choose Xiao Feng a hundred times — No, an infinite number of times over Mo Yuchen."
