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

Chapter 310 - Drop On One Knee (2)

Lu Qingfeng stared at her in disbelief. He thought that she would be upset with him, but she wasn't.

"You aren't mad at me?" He asked cautiously, wanting to see if she was telling the truth. Their relationship was still new and fragile, and he didn't want to upset her just because he failed to rein in his raging hormones.

"No." Su Xiaofei said breathlessly. She was still aware of how fast her heart was racing in her chest.

"Isn't this normal between lovers? We aren't just boyfriend and girlfriend anyway." She gave her a knowing look which made Lu Qingfeng froze, his eyes eyeing her necklace. He hadn't expected that Su Xiaofei would know the reason behind him giving her this family heirloom.

When he didn't say anything in defense, she continued.

"I know what it means to have it, and I'm willing to share your burden in the future." She said with a smile, not breaking their eye contact. Lu Qingfeng should know by now that he was the only man she allowed to be close to her.

Lu Qingfeng sighed in relief and touched her hand that was on his face.

"It's my fault. I should have explained it to you, rather than shoving the responsibility on you without a word of it." He paused, his eyes never leaving hers. "So you know and you're still okay with it?"

Su Xiaofei hummed and looked up, the pale crescent moon was up in the darkened sky. She had lost track of time, nor did she know how long had passed since they left the party.

"That I'm now your fiancée, and we are to marry in the future? Of course."

She wouldn't have accepted the necklace had she been against the idea of them being together for good. In the past, she thought that she had lost faith when it comes to love, but Lu Qingfeng had proved her wrong over and over again.

When Ye Mingyu came to her for the last time with a splendid diamond on her hand, her stomach slightly bulging, Su Xiaofei thought that jealousy should be eating her, but it didn't. She was already in deep-seated hatred anyway.

After her rebirth, her mind wasn't muddled anymore. She couldn't even understand what she had seen in Mo Yuchen and what had been so dazzling about him.

Didn't her mother say that she should find a husband who would love and respect her at the same time? If it wasn't Lu Qingfeng, then she would rather not marry at all.

When Lu Qingfeng fell silent, she turned her gaze back on his face and saw the conflicting emotions on it. She could tell that he was feeling somewhat guilty of not having it explained to her, but also there was a slight relief on his face that she wasn't against the idea of having him as her husband.

"It's really fine." She said, "It's not like I'm expecting you to drop on one knee and offer a diamond ring."

"Do you want me to?" Lu Qingfeng answered with a question. Accepting him as her boyfriend was one thing, but marriage was a serious matter he should have discussed with her, before handing the necklace to her.

Su Xiaofei gave it a good thought before, finally, she shook her head in response. Her previous self would want something like that. Hadn't Mo Yuchen done the very same thing for her in her previous life, saying the words she wanted to hear for her to accept his marriage proposal?

"That sounds romantic, but it's already common, don't you think?" She released his face and took his hand in hers, noticing how large it was compared to hers, reminding her that he wasn't a boy anymore, but a man who desired her.

"I thought most women would want that kind of marriage proposal." Lu Qingfeng said.

"Well, don't group me with those women. It's enough that I see your sincerity." She grinned at him.

"And you don't mind me touching you like this?" He questioned, his hand reaching up to touch her hair.

A dreamy expression entered his eyes as he gazed at her. He had longed to touch her like this, wanting nothing more than to have her by his side for eternity.

"I don't mind." She answered truthfully. "Only if it's you."

His lips hovered dangerously close on hers, but he didn't close the gap between them. He waited for her to make a move instead.

The coolness of the night, Lu Qingfeng's eyes intent on her, the whisper of her heart and the soft sound of her breathing. Her entirety zeroed on the man holding her close, and Su Xiaofei would rather be here, than anywhere else.

She leaned forward and covered his mouth with hers. Lu Qingfeng remained still, giving her permission to explore his mouth as much as she wished. Her tongue traced his lips and he parted it slightly, allowing her to probe his mouth.

Su Xiaofei laid a gentle hand on his cheek and kissed him deeply. The world seemed to stop, as if time no longer mattered. Her hand left his face and skimmed the muscles of his body. Indeed, not a boy anymore. She thought. Perhaps she had made the right decision to allow him to grow and to live away from her to understand himself better.

She was thrilled to know that she had this kind of effect on him, as she felt him struggle with control. To be loved and to be desired by him, it stroked her feminine ego to know that he was all hers.

When she parted from him, she flashed him a mischievous grin.

"Do you believe me now? Just so you know, you aren't the only one who wanted this."

Lu Qingfeng smiled, his hand skimmed her bare arm. It was an innocent gesture, but the tenderness of it was as intimate as the kiss they shared earlier.

"Then I'm glad."
