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

Su Xiaofei was still itching to interrogate Lu Qingfeng for answers, but given how persistent the Ouyang family members were to have a word with him, she was starting to feel annoyed that she couldn't have him for herself on her own birthday. Master Ouyang had called for Lu Qingfeng earlier.

Because of this, she had lost count of how many glasses of champagne she had already downed that night. She kept glancing in Lu Qingfeng's way, waiting to see if he would be done with the pleasantries soon.

She was the birthday celebrant, and yet her companion's attention was being pulled away by others. Lu Qingfeng came back for her, and she didn't like that she needed to compete to get his attention.

Lu Qingfeng, who was still talking to Master Ouyang and his son, looked at Su Xiaofei's direction, his gaze softening at the sight of her. She wasn't the only one who had been longing, as he had badly missed her as well.

Seeing that he was distracted, Master Ouyang finally took pity on Lu Qingfeng. It wasn't lost to him that the young man's attention kept going back to Su Xiaofei during their conversation.

"Xiao Fei must be waiting for you. Go now. Don't let these old men keep you from accompanying your girl." He said, and President Ouyang nodded in agreement.

"Then I'll be excusing myself. Feifei and I will pay you a visit soon." Lu Qingfeng gave them a curt nod before standing from his seat to return to Su Xiaofei's side.

"You're done? Should we get going then?" Su Xiaofei brought down her glass and regarded Lu Qingfeng next to her. She knew how important it was for Lu Qingfeng to uphold his responsibilities by creating and maintaining his networks for the sake of their company.

"You're still not used to it, are you?" He smiled in amusement, noticing the slight blush on her cheeks, which was no doubt because of the alcohol she drank earlier.

"No, that's not it." She shook her head, but doing so only made her feel dizzy, which she immediately regretted. "Ye Mingyu and Mo Yuchen came here together. I don't want their presence to ruin my special day." She muttered.

Lu Qingfeng raised a slender brow, but he didn't make any comments about it. The Su Xiaofei in his previous life wouldn't be as calm and collected as this when it came to Mo Yuchen being with another woman.

He was glad that after her rebirth, she was finally able to get some semblance and could see things differently now. He was glad that he didn't come back too late this time, and would be able to protect her from now on.

It wasn't hard to see that Ye Mingyu was trying to provoke her, forcing Su Xiaofei to act like she was a villainess. The best way for Ye Mingyu to reach the top was by dragging someone she could step on down, and that person was Su Xiaofei.

"I'll take you home then. Aunty Qing would be worried if you don't return home on time." He said, helping her get back on her feet, leading her away from the party.

When they stepped outside, they were greeted by Nine, who was waiting for the two of them. Su Xiaofei noticed that the car she had brought along with the Zhang sisters were missing. She didn't need to ask where they were, as she already knew that Lu Qingfeng allowed the two sisters to leave early whenever he was with her.

Su Xiaofei sighed to herself. She knew that the Zhang sisters had also been on the edge like her these past few days as they didn't hear anything from their master either. It was reassuring to know that Lu Qingfeng seemed fine without any hint of injury on him.

From the moment he returned to her side, up to the time they reached Su Xiaofei's home, Lu Qingfeng refused to let go of her hand, as if he was afraid that she wouldn't be there when he turned his head to look at her.

He had draped his outer coat over her shoulders to protect her from the coldness of the night, as she led him to her mother's garden. The flowers that were tended and raised by Yun Qingrong had yet to bloom, and Su Xiaofei couldn't wait to see them in full blossom.

Instead of releasing Lu Qingfeng's hand, Su Xiaofei tightened her hold on it. If this was a dream, she didn't want to wake up too soon, but alas, this was far better than any dream she had over the past five years.

"Is everything alright? The accident has left everyone worried about you." She asked, leaning close to him as they took a stroll in her mother's vast garden.

"I'm sorry about that. It is just that there are things needed to be done to pull out the weeds from their roots before they cause irreversible damage." Lu Qingfeng answered, giving her an apologetic look.

"As much as I wanted to call you or inform your bodyguards about the situation, Grandpa and I agreed not to get you involved for your safety." He added. "But I should have given you a hint of what could happen…"

"I admit that I was upset, but my concern and trust in you remained. I know you wouldn't leave me in the dark for too long, without knowing what is happening to you."

No matter how worried she was, Su Xiaofei tried to keep her emotions in check, even though she wanted nothing but to rush to his side. The memories of Lu Qingfeng lying on his hospital bed, deep in coma, kept replaying in her mind, keeping her awake late at night despite her exhaustion from the long day at work.

"But I'm here now, right? There's no need for you to be worried.. No one would be able to take me away from you."
