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

Su Xiaofei sent off Aunty Liu with her mother and Xi Qian by her side, wishing the old woman a happy life with her family. Aunty Liu had spent years looking after her, and it was time for the older woman to prioritize her own family, but it didn't mean that Su Xiaofei was willing to let her go. She could only watch as the car that transported Aunty Liu and her son drove away from the Yun Mansion.

This only reminded her of how things could remain the same despite her being reborn in this lifetime. In her previous life, she was already married to Mo Yuchen by this time and Aunty Liu had begrudgingly left the Yun Mansion, leaving Yun Qingrong on her own with nothing to rely on. However, this time, Su Xiaofei still had them by their side, and it was enough for her to see her mother and best friend safe and away from harm.

"Feifei, your birthday is coming soon. Do you have any plans?" Xi Qian tried to probe. She didn't want to admit it, but she was Lu Qingfeng's accomplice. She had to make sure that Lu Qingfeng's plan would proceed as planned.

Su Xiaofei sighed and shook her head, before turning around to follow her mother's lead to get inside.

"No. I don't think I will be free on my own birthday." She told Xi Qian.

"Feifei, you can call it off if you want. Don't worry too much about work. I worry about your health." Yun Qingrong commented as she glanced at her daughter.

It was odd for Feifei to be this exhausted, but not odd for Yun Qingrong to be worried like this. If Yun Qingrong thought that she was a workaholic, she would easily pale in comparison when it comes to her own daughter.

Ever since Su Xiaofei joined Bluemedia at the age of eighteen, she had actively participated, albeit in secrecy, in the company's projects. She would listen to their long meetings, read and study several documents, and would chip in her valuable opinion once in a while.

"It's fine, Mom. The meetings were already confirmed, and it would be a shame to ask them to reschedule." Su Xiaofei replied, but she was aware of what Xi Qian and her mother were thinking at the moment.

Indeed, she was overworking herself these days, and it didn't help that she hadn't heard from Lu Qingfeng lately. Not even one message, which was starting to frustrate her.

Su Xiaofei bid her mother and best friend good night, announcing that she would call it a day. She slipped into her bedroom, took a long shower, slipping into a comfortable nightdress before taking a seat in front of her vanity, trying to dry her long hair.

It had already reached past her waist and she hadn't cut it ever since Lu Qingfeng left for Shenjing. As her thoughts came back to him, she couldn't help but frown, wondering what made him act like this.

Lu Qingfeng had never ignored her nor forgotten to message her for a long time. He would always make sure to inform her of his tight schedules, but never as long as this damn business trip.

Su Xiaofei shut her eyes and took calming breaths. She could only hope that he would come back or at least give her a call.

The sudden ringing that came from her phone broke the silence and peacefulness of the night. Su Xiaofei begrudgingly stood up from her seat, glad that her hair was dry enough for her to sleep with. She almost didn't want to pick up the call, knowing it might be one of those business calls that reminded her of work yet again.

"Hello." She answered the phone, without looking at the caller ID.

She flopped on her comfy bed, looking at her blank ceiling, wondering if she should turn off her phone late at night in order to catch up with sleep. Since Lu Qingfeng hadn't bothered to call or message her, it was pointless to wait for his calls late at night.

"As expected, you are still awake at this ungodly hour." The familiar voice reached her ears, and Su Xiaofei suddenly jolted from her bed and sat up.

She couldn't be mistaken this time. There was no person in this world who was able to make her heart race like this.

"Lu Qingfeng?"

"Hm? Were you expecting another person to call you?" She heard the chuckle from the other end of the line, clearly showing his amusement.

Su Xiaofei huffed and tried to control her breathing. Traitorous heart! Why does it always react like this whenever she hears Lu Qingfeng's voice?

"How was work?" She asked, trying to change their conversation. If it was another person who called her, she would have made an excuse and hung up, but not Lu Qingfeng.

"Ah? You're more interested in my work, than me? Su Xiaofei, I didn't know you could be this heartless." Lu Qingfeng answered, but Su Xiaofei knew he was only teasing her.

"If I didn't know any better, I'd think that you are already married to your work at such an age. You wouldn't be able to keep a mistress at all." She retorted.

At her words, Lu Qingfeng's lips curled into a slight smile. He wished he could see her face, right now, and see the pout he was sure she had on her face at the moment.

"Why do you think I bothered to spend five years away from you? Feifei, I don't like being apart from you for as long as I have." He admitted. "So I'm looking to cut my workload, even for a little, just to be with you. Bear with me for a while, Feifei. Once I'm back, I won't leave your side for too long ever again."

Su Xiaofei bit her lower lip and nodded.. It wasn't like she had any other choice but to wait for his return.
