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

Chapter 242 - Empty Apology (2)

While Su Xiaofei was worrying about his safety in the future, Lu Qingfeng had been preparing to avoid the same disaster that could befall him in five years. He would make sure that no one would be able to stop him from returning to his beloved's side in the future.

It didn't matter if they were his relatives, because Lu Qingfeng would pull out the weeds from their roots before they were able to harm him. With the knowledge he retained from his previous life, it was easy for Lu Qingfeng to figure out who had attempted to kill him.

"Master, we've arranged everything according to your plan." Nine told Lu Qingfeng while the young man was leaning against the railing of the balcony of his room, his eyes watching the darkened sky.

As Nine looked at his young master, he felt that Lu Qingfeng's recent orders were inconceivable even for someone who worked as a mercenary for a long time before meeting his young master. Katarina also voiced her confusion about Lu Qingfeng's odd requests, but they were both left confused, trying to understand Lu Qingfeng's intention.

Lu Qingfeng had been buying shares from different companies, left and right. Aside from investing in Qiao Tech's latest project, Lu Qingfeng also bought some shares from Bluemedia and Golden Star Entertainment using a shell company.

"Thank you." Lu Qingfeng's cool voice reached Nine's ears.

Despite his young master's cold countenance, Nine was still not used to hearing Lu Qingfeng's polite remarks towards him and the others. He was far from the other arrogant and cool young masters from other wealthy families that Nine was acquainted with in the past.

"We will be in Shenjing for at least five years. You should make some preparations for yourself, Nine." He heard Lu Qingfeng say, which reminded Nine that he also still had some personal matters to settle before he could leave with his young master in a month's time.

"Yes. Thank you, Master, for his consideration."

If Lu Qingfeng hadn't sought him that day, Nine wouldn't be able to save his younger sister's life. He didn't know how and why Lu Qingfeng showed up that day, offering to pay for his sister's immediate surgery in return for Nine's service, but regardless of Lu Qingfeng's intention, Nine knew that he was forever indebted to his young master.

Once his assistant left, Lu Qingfeng was left to think about his plans in the future. There were so many things that had changed since he and Su Xiaofei were reborn, and there were still things that would remain the same despite their efforts to change for the better.

He had recently asked for her hand in marriage from Yun Qingrong, but the latter had told him that she would leave that decision to Su Xiaofei and would respect her daughter's decision in the future. This only meant that Lu Qingfeng would need to cement his presence in Su Xiaofei's life and to not give Mo Yuchen a chance to get close with her.

As for Ye Mingyu, he was aware that the scholarship that was granted to her had been snatched from another person. Lu Qingfeng wasn't sure how Ye Mingyu's departure overseas would affect Su Xiaofei in the future, but he could only trust that Su Xiaofei wouldn't allow that woman to outwit her this time. Knowing her personality, Su Xiaofei would surely find ways to smash Ye Mingyu's hopes to pieces.

The wheel of fortune would continue to spin around. If in their past lives, they were both unfortunate to lose each other, it was now Mo Yuchen and Ye Mingyu's turn to be unlucky.

As he was pondering about his future with Su Xiaofei, his phone rang. He immediately picked up the call, seeing that it was Su Xiaofei who was calling her.

"What's up?" He asked immediately.

Lu Qingfeng felt silly. Even now that he was reliving his life for the third time, he still couldn't ignore Su Xiaofei no matter what timeline he was in.

"Xiao Feng, let's go on a trip tomorrow." Came Su Xiaofei's reply.

"Oh? Now you've become bold enough to ask me for a date?" His tone had a hint of teasing in it.

As expected, he heard a low gasp from the other end of the line.

"Lu Qingfeng! You are getting more arrogant these days! If you don't want to accompany me, just say so! I can just ask Yun Xiang to come with me." Su Xiaofei said in annoyance, but her words immediately dampened Lu Qingfeng's mood.

"I didn't say I didn't want to. Tell me the time and where we are going, so I can arrange it with Nine." Lu Qingfeng immediately replied.

There was no way in hell he would allow Yun Xiang to get close with her. He wasn't that blind not to notice the odd look Yun Xiang was giving Su Xiaofei, regardless if the man was even aware of what it meant or not.

"Heh, I know Xiao Feng wouldn't disappoint me." Su Xiaofei said with a laugh.

Lu Qingfeng could only sigh inwardly, knowing that he was totally wrapped around her finger. With his impending departure, he also didn't want to waste this chance to spend more time with her.

"So where are we going this time?"

"Up north. Yun Xiang was able to find Si Yixian's younger sister." Su Xiaofei replied.

Lu Qingfeng was aware that she had been preparing early for her own future by collecting valuable chess pieces she could utilize when the time was right. It was just he hadn't expected that she would take advantage of their weaknesses.

"Ah, so it's not a date." He feigned disappointment. Lu Qingfeng knew that she still have reservations why she couldn't fully accept him yet.

A moment of silence followed as Su Xiaofei didn't respond.

"Hey, are you still there?" Lu Qingfeng called out.

"Then we could have one after meeting Si Yixian's sister.." She said, rendering Lu Qingfeng speechless.
