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

With Su Xiaofei watching her rehearsal with Xiao Rufeng, Ye Mingyu couldn't help but make a few mistakes. She hadn't anticipated that Su Xiaofei would be here, so how was she supposed to injure Xiao Rufeng without arousing suspicion from others? Just as she thought that she would be able to get rid of Xiao Rufeng, Su Xiaofei appeared to ruin her plans again.

She looked at Su Xiaofei, confused and wondering what brought her here. It wasn't rare to see managers of the cast coming to pay a visit, but the filming had just started, so Su Xiaofei shouldn't be making an appearance anytime soon.

As for injuring Xiao Rufeng, it should be easy for her to claim that she underestimated her strength and hit Xiao Rufeng harder than she expected. How could others blame her for it? Alas, it would be a different matter if Su Xiaofei was involved.

Ye Mingyu had learned, the hard way, that her father's adoptive daughter knew how to twist the truth according to her preference. Su Xiaofei's ways were too reckless in her opinion. Su Xiaofei had a tendency to self-destruct and didn't care too much about how people viewed her.

This was something Ye Mingyu couldn't tolerate, as her reputation held utmost importance to her above all, even in her previous life as a commoner.

"Miss Ye must be bothered that I came here to observe." Su Xiaofei commented with a wicked smile on her lips that Ye Mingyu didn't miss.

"N-no… it's not like that…" Ye Mingyu denied, avoiding everyone's gaze.

"Sorry. I need to pay extra attention to Xiao Rufeng, considering she was almost kicked out from the cast in her previous project. If my presence makes you uncomfortable, then I'm really sorry, Miss Ye."

Ye Mingyu snapped her head and looked at Su Xiaofei in shock. As their eyes met, a shiver ran down her spine. She realized that Su Xiaofei was giving her a clear warning not to scheme against Xiao Rufeng today. As for how Su Xiaofei suspected her scheme, Ye Mingyu could only look at Xiao Rufeng in suspicion. So it turned out that Xiao Rufeng wasn't as dumb as she thought her to be.

"Let's try again." Ye Mingyu heard the director say and she could only nod her head in response.

This time, she forced herself to calm down and ignore Su Xiaofei's presence, but it proved to be challenging as Ye Mingyu could feel Su Xiaofei's eyes set on her. Ye Mingyu used to dislike Su Xiaofei for having everything that she wanted from her previous life. However, now, she couldn't explain the fear that blossomed in her heart.

What was it about Su Xiaofei that she needed to be afraid of? She wondered. What could Su Xiaofei have done to her if she hurt Xiao Rufeng today?

At least on the actual take, Ye Mingyu managed to perform decently with Xiao Rufeng, but she already fled from the scene as soon as the director deemed that they were done for the day.

"So what do you think, President Su? Are you satisfied with their performance today?" The director asked for Su Xiaofei's opinion.

Su Xiaofei smiled and glanced at Xiao Rufeng, watching as the actress took the script from her assistant to review her next scenes. It was good that Xiao Rufeng was paying more attention to her work and not allowing others to provoke her, unlike before. If anything, the one who was provoked and caught off guard today was Ye Mingyu.

"I want to believe that Xiao Rufeng is now a queen in the making." She answered, following the director and his assistant to where the rest of the crew were waiting for them to have their lunch break.

"I know this is out of the question, but why didn't you consider joining the showbiz industry as an artist instead? With your looks alone, you could easily topple the hottest celebrities these days. You said that Miss Xiao could be a queen in the making, but haven't you considered yourself being one?"

In her previous life, Su Xiaofei almost became a queen after Ye Mingyu. However, she rejected all her projects at the peak of her career when she found out she was pregnant. She didn't care about being a queen anymore and had chosen to leave the limelight, eager to start her new life as a mother.

However, all of her dreams had turned into a nightmare when Mo Yuchen forced her to get an abortion, forbidding her to give birth to their child. She admitted that the way their child was conceived was against Mo Yuchen's will, but she didn't expect him to be so heartless as to kill his own flesh and blood.

Truth to be told, it was one of the reasons why she didn't want to become an actress or a mother in this lifetime. She was aware that if she told Lu Qingfeng that she didn't want to have a child, he would eventually agree with her, even if it meant that he would be in trouble with the rest of the Lu family.

"People always covet something that they don't have. Unfortunately, fame and stardom are the least of my priorities."

"So what do you aim for then?"

Su Xiaofei gave him a weak smile and shrugged. When she was reborn, she admitted that she was filled with resentment and grievances from her previous life, but she wasn't as bitter as she was before.

"It might sound generic, but I would like to lead a peaceful and happy life with my loved ones. That wouldn't be possible if I became a celebrity."

The director nodded his head in understanding. Not many people would have her disposition in life. Many young professionals her age would want a successful career, fame and wealth, but she only wanted to lead a peaceful life with her family. It made him wonder what led Su Xiaofei to think this way.
