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

Su Xiaofei left the dining table and moved to the living area to talk to Xiao Rufeng. She eagerly waited in anticipation to hear her talent's voice, wanting to know if she managed to escape from her abductors and how she was faring. As soon as she heard Xiao Rufeng's voice from the other end of the line, she couldn't stop herself from asking her questions at once.

"Is everything alright? Did you manage to escape? How did you end up with Yan Xiuchen? Good Lord, Xiao Rufeng. You gave me a good scare tonight!" She rubbed her temple, but she was relieved to know that Xiao Rufeng was safe. Su Xiaofei had no idea what she would do if something bad happened to her talent tonight.

"I'm alright, Miss Su. I'm sorry for making you worry. I'll make sure this won't happen again." Xiao Rufeng said with guilt in her tone.

She had already expected to hear this from her manager. She then proceeded to explain what Ye Mingyu had told her and what happened to her after leaving the club. Xiao Rufeng also informed her that she was still under the influence of a drug and was just waiting for its effects to wane off.

"Did you provoke your sister again?" Su Xiaofei asked, knowing that Xiao Yunyao wouldn't be so stupid to do such a reckless thing unless Xiao Rufeng provoked her somehow.

Xiao Rufeng's face flushed under the dim light of the hotel room. She was thankful that Yan Xiuchen wasn't looking at her at the moment, because she was really ashamed of what she had done.

"En. Before going to the club, I had dinner with my family. As usual, Dad and I had some disagreements and I made a snarky remark about her infront of our father." She admitted, knowing that it was pointless to lie to Su Xiaofei.

Su Xiaofei sighed and pinched the bridge of her nose, willing herself to calm down. She knew that this could happen. Xiao Yunyao had done the same thing in her previous life, but Xiao Rufeng wasn't as lucky as she was today, because she killed herself after her reputation was ruined in public.

"Do you know why I asked you to ignore your sister?" She reminded Xiao Rufeng. "Because we both know what she is capable of. In front of your father, she could lie with a smile and twist the truth in her favor. If you continue to make things hard like this, I wouldn't be able to help you the next time she schemes against you."

"I know and I'm really sorry, Miss Su. I know better now." Xiao Rufeng murmured. This wasn't the first time Su Xiaofei reminded her to be wary of her younger sister, but then again, she was too stupid to allow Xiao Yunyao to get on her nerves and she couldn't stop herself from retaliating.

Perhaps what she had said during their dinner earlier left a bad taste in Xiao Yunyao's mouth, causing her to deal with her like this.

"Okay, okay. Stop apologizing already. What's important to me is that you've learned from your mistakes and never do that again. The next time you hear Xiao Yunyao mock or insult you again, try to ignore her."

Xiao Rufeng had no retort to that.. Of course she knew it, but her pride would always get the best of her and she wasn't willing to be mocked by Xiao Yunyao. Still, she thought that despite their differences, Xiao Yunyao wouldn't dare to cross the line and attempt to kill her.

After exchanging a few words, Su Xiaofei promised to send someone to pick Xiao Rufeng from the hotel stealthily and thanked Yan Xiuchen for his help over the phone. She then ate dinner with her husband, finally able to enjoy the night with him as the problem had already been solved.

Lu Qingfeng didn't forget to give Nine a call and explain the situation to him. He had given him another task instead and asked Nine to gather evidence of Xiao Yunyao's involvement with Xiao Rufeng's kidnapping. Surely, his wife wouldn't let this matter pass without seeking some justice for Xiao Rufeng.

"Would she be okay with Yan Xiuchen? Do we really need to wait until morning to collect her?" Su Xiaofei asked as she joined her husband on the bed.

Lu Qingfeng turned to his side to face her.

"She'll be fine. Chen-ge is a gentleman. I have to say she's extremely lucky that it was him she was delivered to." He said. Yan Xiuchen was the oldest in their brotherhood. Unlike the others, he was the only one he recruited outside the university premises.

"You call him Chen-ge. Are you and Mr. Yan really that close?" She asked curiously. She only knew Yan Xiuchen on a surface level and was curious how her husband managed to get acquainted with the business tycoon.

"He's like an older brother to me." Lu Qingfeng responded. "He might look intimidating in person, but he always looks out for the rest of our brothers. Chen-ge would give us valuable advice whenever one of us was making a gamble on investments that could potentially hurt our finances."

Su Xiaofei pondered for a moment. She really thought that they would be too late to help Xiao Rufeng tonight. She thought that she had already helped Xiao Rufeng to avoid her death flag, but who would have known that Xiao Yunyao would still pull the same trick in this lifetime? It seemed like Su Xiaofei could only delay some events and not totally avoid them. Maybe fate moved differently this time and chose Xiao Rufeng's path to cross with Yan Xiuchen.

"Dear, do you believe in destiny?" She suddenly asked.

"Oh? I thought we were destined together?"

Su Xiaofei's face flushed at that, covering half of her face with the quilt which earned an amused look from her husband.

"Silly. No matter what lifetime we are in, you are bound to me."
