Rebirth Of The Villainess: Young Master Lu's Wicked Wife
Chapter 420 Two Peas In A Pod (1)Lu Qingfeng decided to leave his wife with Xi Qian, giving the two women some time to catch up with each other. He didn't want to eavesdrop on their conversation nor was he interested to know the real score between Xi Qian and Li Xiran. It was enough for him to know that Li Xiran was with her.
As he socialized with the other attendees, Lu Qingfeng unexpectedly ran to a person neither he nor Su Xiaofei were looking forward to seeing again. He had come to the balcony that oversaw the gardens to free himself from the unnecessary talks with the other guests. Imagine his surprise when he found Mo Yuchen smoking on the balcony.
Mo Yuchen's sudden change had bothered him, though he wouldn't admit it to his wife. What were the odds that Mo Yuchen was also reborn like him and Su Xiaofei? Wouldn't this make their lives complicated?
Mo Yuchen also stopped in his tracks and returned Lu Qingfeng's cold gaze with the same intensity. The two men regarded each other with scrutiny.
Lu Qingfeng decided to ignore Mo Yuchen and walked past him. However, Mo Yuchen didn't like the way the younger man looked down on him. No matter which lifetime he was in, Lu Qingfeng had this haughty and arrogant expression on his face, as if he was superior to him.

Lu Qingfeng paused and looked at Mo Yuchen darkly over his shoulder.
"Between the two of us, you are the one who's a complete stranger in Feifei's life. I hate to be the bearer of bad news for you, CEO Mo, but Feifei and I are already married. Whatever you are trying to pull now means nothing to me or to Feifei."
Mo Yuchen glared at him fiercely, not believing a single word Lu Qingfeng had just said. He wanted to believe that the young man was only trying to get on his nerves by claiming such absurdity. It had always been a one-sided romance between Su Xiaofei and Lu Qingfeng, and he didn't believe that Su Xiaofei would be reckless and marry so suddenly.
"You're lying." He sneered at Lu Qingfeng.
"Am I now?" The younger man scoffed arrogantly, daring Mo Yuchen to prove his accusation. "Do I need to show you our marriage certificate before you leave Feifei alone?"
"You're quite suspicious to be honest, CEO Mo." Lu Qingfeng continued. "Weren't you the one who always treated Feifei as if she wasn't worthy of your attention? Now you are the one who is chasing after her, despite her telling you to back off. So CEO Mo, between the two of us, I think that you are the one who's lying to Feifei."
Mo Yuchen stiffened at Lu Qingfeng's accusation. As expected, a person like Lu Qingfeng wouldn't fail to notice the sudden change in his demeanor, but it couldn't be helped at all. He cannot remain the same person as he was before his rebirth.
The Mo Yuchen from before was the one who disliked Su Xiaofei, not him. He realized too late that he'd been a fool, pushing all the blame on her when she did nothing but to prove that she was worthy of his love.
One reason he had pushed her away was because his pride wouldn't allow him to admit that he was envious of her. He didn't like her domineering ways and that Su Xiaofei could hold her head up proudly regardless of what people thought of her. Unlike him, he needed to work hard to please his family and meet their expectations.
He stared at Lu Qingfeng, noticing that his expression, down to how he presented himself, was the same as Lu Qingfeng, the tyrant who killed him in his previous life. Mo Yuchen couldn't be mistaken.
He chuckled bemusedly, making Lu Qingfeng arched a slender brow towards him.

Lu Qingfeng's eyes narrowed suspiciously. Was his assumption about Mo Yuchen being reborn like them was right?
"What the hell are you talking about?" He answered coldly. Lu Qingfeng didn't like where their talk was going. How could Mo Yuchen be so stupid to give himself away and admit that he was reborn?
"You know what I mean, Mr. Lu." Mo Yuchen gave him a pointed look. "The Lu Qingfeng in this life isn't supposed to be you. You are no better than me, Lu Qingfeng. You are lying straight to her face. Would you like to know what her reaction would be if she knew that you are a murderer?"
He waited and kept his eyes trained on Lu Qingfeng's face, eager to see if the man would react to his accusation, but Lu Qingfeng remained silent.
"Silence means yes, don't you know this?" He continued when Lu Qingfeng didn't say a word in his defense.
"Pathetic." Lu Qingfeng would have rolled his eyes if he could, but wouldn't. It wasn't in his nature to do so.
"Who are you calling pathetic?" Mo Yuchen snapped at him with rage in his eyes. How dare Lu Qingfeng insult him like this?
"You. Who else am I talking to? You must have been taking some kind of drug for you to spout such nonsense, CEO Mo. You have stooped too low to accuse me of a crime I didn't commit." Lu Qingfeng replied with a scoff, burying his hands in the side pockets of his pants, before turning to leave.
"What? Chickening from the truth now? Lu Qingfeng, you cannot keep your pretense for too long in front of Feifei. Sooner or later, she will find out how horrible of a person you are." Mo Yuchen continued, knowing that the younger man was still able to hear him clearly.
