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

Still, it was a surprise for him to hear that Bai Qingyue had done such a thing for their daughter's sake. After their nasty break up and falling out, Qiao Fengying had made sure to cut ties with her and had never met her since then. He spent a lot of years trying to find their daughter, which not only put him under a lot of pressure but also put a strain on his marriage with Liu Shulan.

"I see. Then did you accept her proposition?"

"How can't I?" Su Xiaofei grumbled. "I know no matter how much I give back won't be enough to repay what she did for my mother."

Qiao Fengying fell silent. He knew what Su Xiaofei said was right. Bai Qingyue had surely done something for Yun Qingrong that none of them could have. He could see the conflicting emotions in his daughter. There was no doubt that she despised Bai Qingyue for tearing their family apart, and for abandoning her when she was still a baby.

"It's alright, Feifei. It's not your fault. Your mother made that decision and we should respect it." He murmured.Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on novelenglish.net . Fɪre

Qiao Fengying was sure that Bai Qingyue had done it as a sort of retribution for what she had done. If Bai Qingyue didn't care for their daughter at all, she wouldn't have chosen to save Yun Qingrong's life.

"But…" Su Xiaofei wanted to argue, but he shook his head.

"Let me talk to her, alright? Your mother needs you right now. You should be there once they push Miss Yun out of the operating theatre."

Qiao Fengying rose to his seat and patted his daughter's shoulder before kissing her temple. He then gave Lu Qingfeng a curt nod, leaving Su Xiaofei in his care.

Once he was gone, Lu Qingfeng took the seat his father-in-law had vacated and allowed Su Xiaofei to bury her face on his chest as she cried. He knew that the past 36 hours had been hard on his wife.

"Am I such a horrible person? I thought that I don't give a damn about her anymore, but why does it feel so painful?" She lifted her head and looked at him with teary eyes.

"I'm sorry, darling, but I don't think you've done the right thing this time." He gently wiped her tears dry. "If she was the same Bai Qingyue I knew from my memories, then I think that the two of you weren't honest with each other earlier, but I don't blame either of you."

"Tell me how she ended up in your 'dreams'. Do you know what happened to her after I died?" Su Xiaofei asked. Since Lu Qingfeng mentioned his memories from their previous lives, then maybe he knew something about Bai Qingyue that she didn't.

As a ghost, the places she could be at were limited, and she mostly stayed and haunted Yun Qingrong's estate where Lu Qingfeng lived after her passing. So she didn't know much about what happened to others, except for Lu Qingfeng.

Lu Qingfeng's jaws hardened, his face became cold as he tried not to remember the days when Su Xiaofei wasn't with him anymore. However, thinking about the past, he didn't want to believe that Bai Qingyue truly hated Su Xiaofei because of what the actress had done after her passing.

A person who would come to Su Xiaofei's grave every single month for seven years couldn't possibly hate her. She would come without fail, and there were even times that he would find her already there before he was. The actress wouldn't say anything to him, but would only smile bitterly and leave without a word.

Bai Qingyue must have been really devastated with grief and guilt that she eventually took her own life to end her suffering. A woman who had visited her daughter's grave for years couldn't possibly hate her child. She must have said those hurtful words earlier to Su Xiaofei to increase the distance between them and to prevent Su Xiaofei from bearing the guilt.

"When you died, Qiao Yuhan and I decided to bury your remains next to your father." Lu Qingfeng swallowed hard. Just remembering those days was enough to make him uncomfortable. He didn't like the thought of his wife being dead.

"I'm not sure how Bai Qingyue found out about your death, as your name had already been forgotten by the industry back then. For seven years since your death, she would come and stand in front of your grave for more than an hour, staring at your name. It only stopped when the news about her death filled the news. She died from a drug overdose. Apparently it wasn't the first time she attempted to do it."

Hot tears began to flow and Su Xiaofei covered her mouth in shock. She couldn't believe that Bai Qingyue had mourned her death in her previous life. How can she not know of this?

'Because you were blinded with rage and revenge that you refused to hear the other side of the story.' Her mind taunted her.

Did Bai Qingyue regret being harsh on her? Did she regret leaving her daughter, and did she feel guilty for giving Ye Mingyu an upper hand instead of assisting her own child to succeed?

"You know, Feifei. Sometimes people say things that they don't mean, only to regret it in the end. People tend to throw hurtful words when they are cornered or angry. It's not that I'm telling you to forgive her, but I hope you would at least give her the benefit of the doubt and listen to her version of the story." She heard her husband say.

"One must be careful with their words, for words have the power to uplift a person or break them, don't you think?"

Su Xiaofei chuckled at her own stupidity. It seemed like there were so many things she still didn't know. Being reborn had surely given her a chance to see everything from a different point of view.
