Rebirth Of The Villainess: Young Master Lu's Wicked Wife

Su Xiaofei leisurely spent her following days at home as she waited for Andrew Si's decision. She knew that the man wouldn't be able to resist for too long, knowing that she had his sister under her care. She knew that it wouldn't be easy for her to lure him to her side, unlike Tang Liyan and Qin Muyao who were ready to cooperate with her out of desperation.

Andrew Si was known to be hard-headed and had a domineering personality in Su Xiaofei's past life, so she wasn't really surprised if the man was thinking of ways to outwit her and find out where she was keeping Si Yuxuan.

'Heh. As if it would be possible.' Su Xiaofei thought. If the private investigators Andrew Si hired were really capable, they would have found his sister a long time ago. Anyway, the longer he waited to make a decision, the more pressured he would be to answer her. Now that he was aware of his younger sister's condition, how could he ignore Su Xiaofei's proposition?

"Miss, it's been three days since you visited Mr. Si. Are you sure that he would cooperate with you?" Zhang Ling asked once when she served some tea and a slice of strawberry shortcake for Su Xiaofei that afternoon.

Su Xiaofei was on the balcony of her room, flipping through the pages of the novel she had borrowed from Xi Qian the other day. Now that they have graduated from high school, Su Xiaofei had expected that she and her best friend would meet each other less, given that they would be attending two different schools for college.

If in the past, Su Xiaofei wasn't willing to part with Xi Qian and Lu Qingfeng, she was now adjusting quite well to these changes in her life. She didn't feel the same confusion and fear she felt before. Su Xiaofei used to feel that everyone was moving forward with their lives, and she couldn't catch up with them.

Su Xiaofei didn't want to admit it, but she was extremely insecure in her previous life and younger years. She depended on the people around her a lot, despite her arrogance and haughtiness. One thing she disliked the most was being left on her own, hence, she grabbed every opportunity she had to not let Mo Yuchen leave her during their marriage.

"It's fine, Zhang Ling. We should give him enough time to consider." She smiled at the younger sibling before thanking her for the snacks. "Where's your sister?" She asked when she noticed that she hadn't seen Zhang Lan since morning.

"Master Lu sent her on an errand. I hope you won't mind me accompanying you today, Miss Su." Zhang Ling wasn't sure since when Su Xiaofei started noticing that she and her sister would disappear from her side once in a while as they executed Lu Qingfeng's orders.

"Be at ease, Zhang Ling. I don't mean anything by asking. I'm just curious about what made you leave without informing me."

Zhang Ling's face flushed upon hearing that. It felt like she and her sister had been caught doing a shameful act by Su Xiaofei. She knew she shouldn't be ashamed of it, but Zhang Ling had never thought Su Xiaofei would even acknowledge the issue.

"I'm sorry, Miss Su. I should have known that you would notice. My sister received an order from Master Lu last night. I will make sure to inform her to notify you before leaving from now on."

"Zhang Ling, I am aware that you are still serving Xiao Feng, as you and your sister are only temporary guards that he assigned to look after me. I can't thank you enough for taking care of me for the past months, but I would be relieved if I knew when you were to leave. If something bad happens to you and your sister, I wouldn't be able to explain it to Xiao Feng."

Zhang Ling stared at their young miss in shock. She hadn't expected that Su Xiaofei had come to care for her and her sister over the past months they had been on her side. When she and her elder sister received a high-priority mission from Lu Qingfeng, they were both surprised when they found out that they were to guard Su Xiaofei.

Within the private guards of the Lu family, who hadn't heard about Su Xiaofei? Her name was notorious in their line and she was known to take advantage of their young master's kindness. Since their young master had practically grown up with Su Xiaofei, those who had been serving the Lu family longer didn't have a good impression on her.

Many viewed her as unsuitable to become Lu Qingfeng's bride and because of the rumors surrounding her, the Zhang siblings were initially hesitant to accept their mission.

However, the more they spent time with Su Xiaofei, the more they realized that she was nothing like the rumors painted her to be. Although her ways of dealing with her enemies were odd, Su Xiaofei wasn't disrespectful towards Lu Qingfeng, and especially not to her mother.

If Su Xiaofei had shown even a little disrespect towards Lu Qingfeng, Zhang Ling and her sister would have asked Lu Qingfeng to remove them from her service, as they both weren't willing to serve a person who belittled and couldn't respect their master.

However, now as Zhang Ling stared at Su Xiaofei, she realized that her elder sister was right about Su Xiaofei. This young woman would only lower her guard when their master was with her. Ever since Lu Qingfeng left, Zhang Ling would find Su Xiaofei spacing out at times, her mind seemingly elsewhere, which was far different from her demeanor when Lu Qingfeng hadn't left yet.

"I won't ask you about the things Xiao Feng asked you to do, but I would appreciate it if you could give me a heads-up before leaving. I won't stop you from doing what he orders, but I don't like worrying too much if you're gone for too long."

"I understand, Miss Su."

Zhang Lan returned from her errands an hour later, rushing to meet Su Xiaofei. She had received a call from Andrew Si, asking for an immediate meeting with her.

Su Xiaofei only smirked and sighed to herself as she told Zhang Lan to calm down and relax. Andrew Si's actions were still within her expectations.

"There's no need to rush, Zhang Lan. Get back to Mr. Si and inform him that I am not available until tomorrow. Since he had forced me to wait for him to make a decision, I need to remind him of how precious our time is." She replied with an arrogant tone, which the Zhang siblings were already accustomed to.

This was the only trait that the rumors got right about Su Xiaofei. She was a vengeful woman and hated getting the shorter end of the stick. If someone dared to slap her, she would return the favor a hundredfold.

"Yes, Miss Su. I will inform his assistant of your answer then." Zhang Lan said before excusing herself to execute Su Xiaofei's order.

"Aiya, Mr. Si should have accepted as soon as he received the proposition." Zhang Ling commented with a laugh. She knew why Su Xiaofei was doing it. Her young miss was purposely making it hard for the designer to meet her as some kind of revenge.

As for Andrew Si, he could only blame himself for annoying and troubling Su Xiaofei like this. It was now his turn to wait for Su Xiaofei to meet him.

"It's normal for him to be wary of me, Zhang Ling. I know you would do the same if you were in his shoes. If you are separated from your sister for a long time and found out that she's sick, you wouldn't be able to stay still and do nothing, right? This is one of the greatest weaknesses of a human. Their emotional attachment to someone could be us against them."

"Then Miss Su, aren't you afraid that someone would use your weakness against you too?" Zhang Ling curiously asked. If Su Xiaofei put it that way, wouldn't that mean that a scheming person could also use that trick to force Su Xiaofei to a corner?

"Ah, Zhang Ling, this is why you have to nip it in the bud, before it has any chance to bloom. I'm sure Xiao Feng would do the same. However, if anyone dares to touch my bottom line, I will make sure that they would regret crossing paths with me."

Su Xiaofei's eyes flashed with a viciousness that Zhang Ling had never seen in anyone else. It was obvious that Su Xiaofei was younger than her by a few years, but the way she spoke and acted made Zhang Ling think that Su Xiaofei had encountered a lot of people in her life. Even the way she dealt with Qin Muyao and Tang Liyan obviously showed that she was merely using them as her pawns.. Willing ones at that.
