Rebirth Of The Villainess: Young Master Lu's Wicked Wife
Chapter 522 Ominous Feeling (2)Lu Qingfeng knew that he had woken up that morning on the wrong side of the bed. The sky was still dark outside, and his wife was peacefully slumbering next to him when he awoke from another nightmare.
Having the same nightmare after not having it for some time felt ominous. He was about to leave for Shenjing the very next day and suddenly, he felt the need to stay with Su Xiaofei. His instincts were telling him something was about to happen, but he wasn't sure what it was.
Su Xiaofei rolled on her side and draped an arm on him, stopping him from leaving the bed earlier than usual. Lu Qingfeng knew that she was a bit of a restless sleeper since they were younger, but oddly enough, he could easily fall into slumber when she was by his side.
His hand reached and brushed her hair away from her face and kissed her forehead. Even after being married to her for months now, a part of him was still in disbelief that she was here with him as his wife, and she wasn't running away from him.
At least life this time had been good not only to him, but to her as well. It was odd that Mo Yuchen wasn't doing anything, though, and he wondered if the man had changed his mind about pursuing Feifei.
Ye Mingyu, on the other hand, was doing terrible this time. She couldn't have her way and provoked Su Xiaofei. Her failed attempts were like multiple slaps on her own face, which only humiliated herself further.
Lu Qingfeng gently removed his wife's arm and slipped out of their massive bed. He knew she needed more sleep these days and didn't bother to wake her up. Considering how hectic her work schedule was, it was a surprise that she was able to make time to visit her mother and came home with him on time.

He went down the stairs and made a beeline to the kitchen. While most people were still asleep at this time, Lu Qingfeng was able to sort out his thoughts as he moved around the kitchen, brewing coffee and making breakfast for himself and his wife.The latest_epi_sodes are on_the novelenglish.net . fire(.)nᴇt
So it came as a surprise to him when he heard a knock on the door and saw Zhang Lan standing at the doorway with a stiff expression. He gave her a quick glance, then returned his attention to the meat he was cutting with a sharp kitchen knife.
"What is it?"
Zhang Ling's lips quivered and lowered her gaze to the floor.
"We received intel from one of our people who was following Ye Mingyu as the Madam instructed." She started, "but I thought… I thought it would be appropriate to report this to you, Master, rather than deliver it to her."
Zhang Lan's tone implied that Lu Qingfeng wouldn't be pleased with the information she was about to report. She swallowed the invisible lump in her throat when Lu Qingfeng's hands stopped midair and looked at her.
"And that is?"
She suddenly thought that she should have waited for her master to finish whatever he was doing. Seeing him holding a very sharp knife in one hand made her break out in cold sweat.
"Ye Mingyu went to a nightclub last night and met with Chen Hao. Our men said that she was asking him for a favor."
Lu Qingfeng raised a slender brow at her.
"What does it have to do with Feifei?"
Zhang Lan suddenly felt that the air within the kitchen had suddenly turned suffocating.
"Chen Hao implied that he wants a woman as payment for granting Ye Mingyu a favor." She paused, gauging her master's reaction. Zhang Lan mentioned this to her younger sister earlier, and Zhang Ling panicked at once when she heard it.
"He's talking about the mistress. There's no doubt about it. Xi Qian once told me that Chen Hao had been eyeing the madam indecently without her knowing." Zhang Ling told her. "If the madam's life is in danger, you must report this at once, Lan-jie!"
And so she came here, wondering if she had done the right thing by believing her sister's claim. What if Zhang Ling was wrong and Chen Hao was speaking of another woman?

"Are you certain that those were his words?"
"I believe his exact words were 'I only desire one person, if you can deliver her to me, then I will fulfill your request without a question.'"
Lu Qingfeng fell silent and didn't say anything in response. He looked as if he was in deep thought.
"You may leave." He finally said after a long silence, dismissing her.
Zhang Lan released the breath she didn't know she was holding before quietly leaving her master on his own.
Was this why he dreamt that he was holding Su Xiaofei's dead body again? Lu Qingfeng wondered.
Chen Hao.
How could he forget that man?
In their previous life, Chen Hao was harboring indecent thoughts about Su Xiaofei and while Su Xiaofei kept her distance from the man, it didn't stop Chen Hao from lusting over her.
When Su Xiaofei lost her child and divorced Mo Yuchen, Chen Hao made a move towards her and tried to molest her. In her despair to save herself, his poor Feifei chose to throw herself from the high stairs, breaking her leg badly in the process. When he finally found her, he discovered that the incident had left her crippled for the rest of her life.
Lu Qingfeng looked at the trail of blood left on the blade of the kitchen knife in front of him, his eyes darkening. It seemed like he needed to teach Chen Hao a lesson again.
