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

"Then just finish whatever you need to do. I won't be going anywhere." She murmured quietly, not wanting to make Lu Qingfeng worry about her.

Her worries about him started to ease now that she was able to hear his voice again. Now, she could only hope that she wouldn't have to wait for his calls and messages anymore and would be able to see him in person soon.

"Alright. I will listen to you." Lu Qingfeng didn't dare to argue with her, as he had been missing her too lately. It would be a waste of time, and he would rather hear her voice and listen to her endless chattering like she used to do when they were younger.

The past five years without her had been hard for him. It reminded him of the long years he'd been in despair and loneliness after she died in his previous life. However, Lu Qingfeng was aware that she needed enough time to grow and do things on her own without his influence.

With their busy schedule, Lu Qingfeng didn't want to cause her any more inconvenience than he already had. He was also aware that she had been waiting for his return, and he had been stalling their reunion.

"Is there something else that's bothering you?" Lu Qingfeng asked in a gentle voice. As he glanced at the time on the clock on his desk, the only reason he could think of why she was still awake this late was that something was in her mind.

Su Xiaofei sighed and covered her eyes with her arm, thinking that Lu Qingfeng knew her well and she couldn't hide anything from him for too long. She wouldn't even be surprised if the young man was suspecting something about her rebirth and the reason behind her sudden change five years ago.

"Just stress about work. Nothing too serious." She replied, hoping that he wouldn't probe any further. She also didn't want to admit that she was missing him terribly. It was one thing that she wasn't able to see him, but not being able to hear anything from him distressed her even more.

It also didn't help that she kept worrying about him getting assassinated in this lifetime. In her previous life, he had fallen into a deep coma for a few years before he recovered fully, only to find her on her own deathbed.

Although she was able to avoid marrying Mo Yuchen, Su Xiaofei feared that Lu Qingfeng wouldn't be able to avoid the calamity that was about to hit him. Even if Su Xiaofei wanted to warn him about it, she was also at loss as she was unaware of the details of the assassination attempt towards him.

"How about you? Are you back at Shenjing now?" She asked in return. It had been exactly twelve days since she last heard from him and she'd been worrying since then.

Su Xiaofei talked to him for another hour until she dozed off on her bed peacefully. For the first time since Lu Qingfeng left for his recent business trip, she was able to fall asleep without worrying about him.

When Lu Qingfeng didn't hear anything from her, he surmised that she had already fallen asleep. He hung up the call and wasn't upset with Su Xiaofei as this wasn't the first time it happened anyway.

"Master, everything has been prepared according to your orders."

Lu Qingfeng turned his head to his right.

Nine appeared next to him and delivered his report. He was a little disturbed when Lu Qingfeng sent him back to Qiying City alone two months ago to investigate the other members of the Lu family, only to find out that there was danger awaiting his master upon his return.

Nine didn't know how Lu Qingfeng knew about it, as there hadn't been any occasions or events that would make the young man suspect that someone was plotting against him.

As expected, Lu Qingfeng didn't waste time and made preparations for his return to Qiying City. Now that he had finished his training as his grandfather's successor, it only made sense why some of his relatives were getting edgy as they refused to acknowledge him as the next head of the family.

One of Lu Qingfeng's relatives had hired a team to ambush him on his return to Qiying City, and they were only waiting for the informant to let them know when the young man would arrive.

"Alright." Lu Qingfeng replied and stood from his seat. His eyes glanced outside the floor-to-ceiling glass window of his office, watching the bright lights in Shenjing.

It had been too long for him since he had last been in Qiying City, seeing Su Xiaofei in person. It didn't matter if someone was plotting against his life right now, because no one would be able to stop him from returning to her side no matter what happened. His relatives were able to harm him in his past life, obstructing him from pursuing the woman he loved, but not this time.

The murderous glint on Lu Qingfeng's eyes startled Nine. There weren't many people who can annoy and trigger his master like this and everytime Nine sees it in Lu Qingfeng, it only meant he wouldn't hesitate to crush his enemy beyond recognition.

Since his relatives had plotted against him, Nine wouldn't be surprised if Lu Qingfeng would cut their familial ties without batting an eye and crush them without mercy.

His master might be young compared to other successors of other prominent and wealthy families, but Nine never saw Lu Qingfeng hesitate or show weaknesses even once during his training days. In fact, Lu Qingfeng acted accordingly, showing great potential to succeed his grandfather with his competence, despite his young age.

Lu Qingfeng had already leaked the information that he would be returning to Qiying City in two weeks' time. However, what his relatives didn't know was, it was actually a trap that would implicate them, exposing their wicked schemes to the world.

A week later, Yun Qingrong woke up too early and couldn't fall back asleep, so she tidied up her bed and went to check on her daughter. Whenever she had time, she made sure to pay Su Xiaofei a visit, whether she was sleeping or not. Seeing her was enough for Yun Qingrong to forget her worries and her exhaustion from work.

However, upon checking her daughter's room, Su Xiaofei was nowhere to be found. Looking at the time, it was only four in the morning, and Yun Qingrong was surprised that her daughter was up this early.

She went downstairs to look for her, but Su Xiaofei wasn't in the living room or in the kitchen. She then remembered that Feifei mentioned that she needed to lose some of her excess weight, so Yun Qingrong decided to check their vast yard.

As she expected, she saw her daughter shadowboxing. She was dressed in a dark blue tracksuit, which she usually sported whenever she sparred with Xi Qian and Xiao Rufeng.

Although Yun Qingrong wasn't certain of the type of self-defense Feifei and Xi Qian had learned over the past five years, she was at ease knowing that the two women would be able to defend themselves.

Su Xiaofei's movements were fast and strong, and it was obvious that she had been taking her training seriously. As to why her daughter was up this early, Yun Qingrong didn't need to ponder too long to know that Feifei must be worrying about her childhood friend again.

Yun Qingrong's eyes softened upon seeing her daughter. She felt immense pride when she looked at Su Xiaofei. As her daughter, she hadn't expected Su Xiaofei to follow her steps and learn the ways of the company. Initially, Feifei voiced her displeasure regarding it and would rather become a celebrity instead.

By the time Su Xiaofei noticed her, she was already done with her third round.

"Mama? Is there something wrong? You are up early." Su Xiaofei said as she walked towards her mother, worry flashing in her eyes.

With Yun Qingrong's health condition starting to affect her work recently, it was normal for Su Xiaofei to be worried.

"It's nothing, dear." Yun Qingrong tried to assure her daughter. "If you are done with your training, why don't we go inside and let me prepare a quick breakfast for us." She added.

Su Xiaofei stared at her mother for a moment, knowing that Yun Qingrong had been suffering from chronic chest pains and dizziness. Those were the same symptoms her mother had in her previous life before Yun Qingrong lost her life in an accident.

Her rebirth hadn't done anything to change it, although Su Xiaofei had been convincing her mother to cut off her workload to take a rest.. Su Xiaofei could only pay more attention to Yun Qingrong and make sure she didn't overwork herself now that she had an illness that could threaten her life.
