Rebirth Of The Villainess: Young Master Lu's Wicked Wife
Chapter 306 - You Are Like A Daughter To Me (2)Su Xiaofei hadn't expected that Qiao Fengying and the rest of the family would be able to come to Qiying City under short notice. She didn't need to ask how busy her father's schedule was, as she had barely heard from him or seen him over the past years.
The project her father had been working on became a hit and the investment she and Lu Qingfeng put in had returned in three years and had continued to profit to this day. Su Xiaofei was happy that she was able to make the process of procuring the project easier for her father in this lifetime. However, she had to admit that the revenue she was getting from it these days had helped her tremendously in reaching her target amount to protect Bluemedia from Mo Yuchen.
"Uncle Qiao." Su Xiaofei released herself from Lin Chunxiao to greet her father properly. "I didn't expect to see you here today."
Qiao Fengying took the initiative to step forward and drew Su Xiaofei into a hug. He then placed a gentle kiss on her forehead before releasing her.
"How can I miss your birthday celebration, Xiao Fei? If Lu Qingfeng hadn't given me a call this morning, we would surely miss your celebration today." Qiao Fengying replied with a smile. "You are like a daughter to me. I can't possibly miss your special day."
"Dad, let me greet Fei Jie too!" Another familiar voice exclaimed behind Su Xiaofei's father.
Glancing behind Qiao Fengying, Su Xiaofei saw the thirteen-year-old Qiao Yuhan.
"Oh, my. Even my favorite Xiao Han is here." She giggled and gestured for the boy to come closer to her.
Her adorable, cute little brother was growing too fast for her liking. Su Xiaofei wanted to spend as much time with him as she possibly could. However, with her busy schedule, even if Qiao Yuhan was in Qiying City, it was hard for her to accompany him during his stay.
"Of course, I would be here! I can't possibly miss your birthday, right, Fei Jie?!" Qiao Yuhan rushed to greet Su Xiaofei. When he overheard his father's conversation over the phone with Lu Qingfeng that morning, he insisted on coming with his parents today. Thankfully, when Lu Qingfeng made a call, his parents didn't have any plans for today and intended to spend time with Qiao Yuhan at home.
Su Xiaofei's gaze softened and she smiled at her younger brother. She didn't think she had any more wishes that have yet to be fulfilled on her birthday. Did she somehow win a lottery somewhere? However, she didn't dare to complain about it. It wasn't every day that she could celebrate her birthday with the people that mattered to her.
She decided to enjoy this rare time with them, conversing happily with her friends and her talents. Her previous thoughts about Ye Mingyu and Mo Yuchen were temporarily forgotten to enjoy this rare moment with them.
As she stepped out onto the porch for some fresh air, she didn't expect that Lu Qingfeng's grandfather was already there before him.
"Ah, Grandpa. I didn't expect you to be here." Su Xiaofei laughed awkwardly. Now that she was in a relationship with Lu Qingfeng, she wasn't sure if it would change others' perception of her.
"Calm down, Xiao Fei. Why don't you accompany this old man here for the meantime?" The old man smiled at him, gesturing for Su Xiaofei to take the seat across from him.
Su Xiaofei didn't think she would be able to deny Lu Qingfeng's grandfather's request. She took a seat and waited for the old man to say something to her.
'Why isn't he saying anything?' She wondered when only silence ensued between them. Wasn't he curious what would change now that she was with Lu Qingfeng?
"I see that my grandson didn't waste any time to give that necklace to you." Chairman Lu finally said, breaking the awkward atmosphere between them.
Su Xiaofei unconsciously lifted a hand and touched the pendant resting on her chest. Lu Qingfeng had given this to her last night before leaving. For others, they might think that it was merely a token of love from Lu Qingfeng, but Su Xiaofei knew that it wasn't as simple as that.
If she hadn't seen this necklace during her time as a ghost, she wouldn't have any idea how important it was to Lu Qingfeng and the rest of the Lu family. This very necklace that she was wearing now was an heirloom of the Lu family that was passed only to women that were acknowledged as the madam of the family.
Lu Qingfeng had held onto it after her death and refused to bestow it upon other women in her previous life. He insisted that no woman was worthy to have it except for her. It was at that point that Su Xiaofei realized how deep his love was.
In the end, Lu Qingfeng had passed this necklace to his adoptive son who succeeded him in the company and Su Xiaofei had no idea who it ended up with. To think that she would be able to have it this time, Su Xiaofei wasn't sure if she made the right choice by accepting it. However, it was too late to regret now, and Lu Qingfeng would surely get upset if she dared to return it.
"Grandpa, I can't promise you anything aside from looking after Xiao Feng and being faithful to him. I want nothing other than his happiness."
Su Xiaofei knew that there were things she needed to learn before becoming the wife of the head of the Lu family and so, she didn't dare to make a bold declaration in front of Lu Qingfeng's grandfather.
The old man smiled genuinely to her before bringing his teacup down, looking pleased with Su Xiaofei's answer.
"That's all that matters to me, Xiao Fei.. Xiao Feng is younger than you, so I hope you can be patient with him too."
