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

Su Xiaofei crawled over her husband, yawning as she tucked the blanket to cover her bare chest. She searched their room for her panties, which Lu Qingfeng had flung off somewhere hours ago. She found it at the foot of the bed, chuckling as she picked it up and put them back on.

Making love to her husband after weeks of abstinence was like experiencing the first spring night once again. Lu Qingfeng had been gentle with her, although she was deeply aware that he was merely reining his self-control for her sake.

Lu Qingfeng's hand reached for her, his eyes closed.

"Come back to bed, Feifei. It's still too early." He murmured.

"I can't," she said, moving to his side to press a kiss on his cheek. "I need to accompany Mama for breakfast. You sleep, though. You were up until late last night, working."

She'd had to come barging into the study to drag him to bed. Of course, Lu Qingfeng had been reluctant to leave, not until she started stripping in front of him, then he couldn't go to bed fast enough with her.

Su Xiaofei's life was almost perfect. Not only did she have a loving husband and a good mother, she also had friends she could rely on when needed. However, she couldn't really ignore this ominous feeling that something was about to happen. She pushed these thoughts away and ran her fingers through her long hair and tied it in a messy bun.

"I'll join you in a minute." She heard Lu Qingfeng grunted before rolling on his side, revealing his broad back that had scratch marks on it.

Su Xiaofei blushed and went straight to their bathroom. After taking a quick shower and dressing up, she went back to their bedroom and found her husband over the phone. He gave her a curt nod, and she decided to head downstairs to see if her mother was up.

She found Yun Qingrong already in their dining area, eating her breakfast alone. Her mother's face lit up once she'd seen Su Xiaofei and gestured for her daughter to join her.

"You are up early, Feifei. I thought you and Xiao Feng said you're going to take a day off today?" Yun Qingrong said.

Su Xiaofei sighed and thanked the house helper for serving her breakfast. She waited until they were left alone and were out of everyone's earshot. Since the problem involved Bai Qingyue, she didn't want anyone to find out about her association to the said actress.

"There's an emergency meeting. The director and the producer of the film Tang Liyan and Bai Qingyue starred in were both upset with Miss Bai's absence for these past weeks. I'm sure they would request to kick Miss Bai out of the project and be replaced by another one."

Yun Qingrong lowered her teacup and frowned. Su Xiaofei didn't need to explain why Bai Qingyue was absent during the filming, and it was because of her. Somehow, this made Yun Qingrong feel guilty.

"Feifei, do you mind if I come with you? I won't cause you any trouble. I just want to help Miss Bai with this problem."

"But Mama, you don't need to do this."

Su Xiaofei understood that her mother was feeling grateful towards Bai Qingyue, but she didn't think Yun Qingrong should mediate for the actress. Not only would she see her birth mother today, but she also expected to see Mo Yuchen's annoying face. Oh, how she couldn't wait to leave the meeting sooner.

"Feifei, I know how you feel towards her, but it won't hurt us to help her this time, after what she'd done for you." Yun Qingrong said gently, her hands reaching forward to touch her daughter's hand.

Several reasons rushed through Su Xiaofei's mind as she thought that it was a bad idea for her mother to meet the actress. The less encounters she had with Bai Qingyue, the better. Su Xiaofei had no reason to break her part of the deal she made with her birth mother, but seeing Yun Qingrong's decisive expression, she could only nod in agreement.

Su Xiaofei didn't know what to feel towards Bai Qingyue now. It still baffled her to think that she had made such a huge sacrifice to let Yun Qingrong live. How was she able to nurse the grudge she had towards her if things had turned out like this in this lifetime?

If what Lu Qingfeng said to her were true, and Bai Qingyue had died with a broken heart years after her death, did it mean that Bai Qingyue regretted what she'd done to her?

"You don't need to forgive her if you don't want to, Feifei." Yun Qingrong said, much to her surprise.

"I don't know what Miss Bai told you, but as a mother, even if you end up hating me, as long as you are happy and content, then I wouldn't mind it at all. You are our daughter. She might not be the mother you needed, but it doesn't mean she has never held you dearly in her heart." Yun Qingrong said and then paused as if she remembered something.

"I couldn't imagine how painful it was for her to abandon you…She was very young when she had you, and I didn't doubt that she was scared of everything. There had been rumors about how strict her parents were towards her before, to the point that she couldn't even make any decisions nor use the money she earned from her acting and projects."

"Have you met them then, Mama? I mean my real grandparents?" Su Xiaofei asked.

Since Yun Qingrong had been in the industry for decades, she must have met Bai Qingyue on several occasions.

"I did." Her mother nodded. "And I could say from experience that they were really hard to get along with. They always interfered with Miss Bai's work and Miss Bai even went as far as suing her own parents to leave her be. That made me wonder what kind of environment you'd grow up in if Miss Bai decided to keep you."
