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

Chapter 74 - A Role To Play (2)

As for Su Xiaofei, she was waiting for Ye Mingyu's next move. That woman wouldn't easily accept defeat and would surely try to placate Feng Xue'er's anger by now. Feng Xue'er was an important ally for Ye Mingyu anyway, if she lost Feng Xue'er's favor this early, her chance to be crowned as the flower of Qiying City Academy would be as good as gone.

A month from now, the academy will hold a ball for its students as a part of the celebration of their founding anniversary. Ye Mingyu would use this chance to boost her popularity by being crowned as the 'Fairy Queen' of the academy.

In Su Xiaofei's past life, with Feng Xue'er's help as the designer of Ye Mingyu's dress, Ye Mingyu's name was acknowledged as one of the most beautiful students in the campus. The ball also established Feng Xue'er's potential as a popular fashion designer in the future.

Su Xiaofei was lost in her thoughts as she sipped her tea, while Lu Qingfeng was seated across from her in the garden, busy working on his assignments on his laptop.

Aunty Liu came and brought them a couple slices of cakes for the two to eat. She smiled inwardly as she watched the youngsters in front of her. She had watched the two grow up together and had been very fond of them.

Her young miss, who seemed arrogant to everyone else, was very gentle and patient with young Lu Qingfeng, while the young master of the Lu Family, who kept everyone at an arm's length, was very close and caring towards their Feifei.

However, despite the two growing up together, they didn't have any siblings' affections towards each other, which somewhat confused the old woman. Even she, at her old age, couldn't describe what kind of relationship the two had. However, she could tell that they had such an unbreakable bond that wouldn't be easily shaken by anyone. Or so she thought.

It wasn't until their Feifei met Mo Yuchen when she was thirteen did Aunty Liu feel that something had changed between these two youngsters. While Su Xiaofei sought Mo Yuchen for his attention, Lu Qingfeng's attitude became colder, which became unbearable for some servants working under the Lu family.

For the first time, Lu Qingfeng contradicted Su Xiaofei and told her she was being a fool for chasing after Mo Yuchen. Su Xiaofei only pinched both of his cheeks before placing a kiss on his head, telling him he was too young to understand the kind of feelings she had for the Young Master Mo.

"Xiao Feng, you've been studying hard these days. Take a break and have a snack with Feifei." Aunty Liu told the young man in front of her. An hour ago, when she passed by and spotted the two in the garden, Lu Qingfeng's head was bent over his assignments while her young miss was just leisurely sitting there, relaxing.

Lu Qingfeng smiled a little and thanked her politely. He had never shown any disrespect towards his elders, despite his cold and aloof personality.

He was only fifteen, but Aunty Liu hadn't met any young men his age, who were as dedicated and patient as him when it came to school work. Although he was too smart for his age, Lu Qingfeng didn't take any acceleration exams for him to skip a few levels.

Aunty Liu was also aware that the young master Lu was now starting his training under his grandfather's guidance as the next successor of their family. This only meant that Lu Qingfeng would be busier soon and he wouldn't have much time to visit their Feifei.

"Why is Auntie Liu only praising Xiao Feng?" Su Xiaofei pouted. "I'm also trying hard to study these days."

The old woman laughed behind her hand at her young miss's accusation. Of course, she was also aware of that. Every night, she would go into Su Xiaofei's room to clean it, only to find her notes and books opened and left on her study table while she took a shower to prepare for bed.

"Right. It's this old woman's fault. Our Feifei is also a hardworking student."

Su Xiaofei beamed at the old woman and praised her for her delicious cooking.

"Aunty Liu shouldn't praise Feifei too much or it might get to her head." Lu Qingfeng commented, which earned a glare from the young woman across from him.

Once Aunty Liu was gone, Lu Qingfeng took this chance to ask Su Xiaofei.

"So… have you found a way to earn that 100 million that you needed?"

Su Xiaofei shook her head and took a bite from her cake.

"Not yet, I'm still in the planning process. Why? Are you willing to give me 100 million now?" She said with a teasing tone.

Lu Qingfeng scoffed at that.

"Even if I have 100 million, what made you think that I would willingly give it to you? Unless you become my wife, I won't give you anything excessive like that."

"So I have to become your wife first before I get my hands on that 100 million of yours?"

"En." Lu Qingfeng nodded. "Didn't you say that you want your husband's everything? If you were to marry me in the future, it's only natural that you would get access to all of my assets and properties as my wife."

"Ah, music to my ears, Xiao Feng! So, being Madam Lu would mean being loaded with so much money, huh?"

With Lu Corporation involvement in the banking and insurance industry, it was only normal that they were making a lot of money, compared to the Mo family who can barely reach twenty percent of the Lu Corporation's revenue.

"Well, too bad, that's still not an option for me, Xiao Feng. Su Haoran is still refusing to annul my engagement with Mo Yuchen to this day."

Just as Lu Qingfeng was about to answer her, Aunty Liu came back, announcing Mo Yuchen's visit.
