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

Chapter 348 - Wedding Preparations (2)

That night, instead of sneaking into Lu Qingfeng's room, Su Xiaofei chose to see her mother for a talk. She gently knocked on her mother's door and peeked her head upon opening the door to see what her mother was doing.

"Feifei? What's wrong? Are you having trouble falling asleep again?" Yun Qingrong, who was seated on the bed, asked her daughter. She then patted the space beside her on the bed, gesturing for Su Xiaofei to join her.

Su Xiaofei grinned and hurriedly climbed on the bed and settled next to her mother. It felt like a very long time since she slept on the same bed with her.

Yun Qingrong felt the same as she looked at her daughter. She couldn't help but remember the first time Feifei had come to their room one stormy night, asking if she could sleep with her. Su Haoran wasn't home that day as he was once again on one of his 'business trips', leaving her and their young daughter at home.

"Can I sleep with you tonight?" She asked her mother. "I'm not sure when I would be able to do this again once Lu Qingfeng and I are married."

Thinking about it, she hadn't even discussed with him where they were going to live and what he expected from their marriage. Su Xiaofei made a mental note to ask him tomorrow, so they would have less problems in the future.

Yun Qingrong remained seated and gently played with her daughter's hair.

"You are very much welcome to come here and sleep with me, but I thought you would prefer Xiao Feng's company by now." She teased her daughter, laughing as Su Xiaofei's face reddened instantly.

"It's not like that, Mama…" Su Xiaofei refused to meet her mother's teasing look as she wasn't sure whether Yun Qingrong was talking about her impending marriage, or if she was aware of her nightly visits to Lu Qingfeng lately.

"You don't need to explain yourself, Feifei. Your Mama understands." Yun Qingrong said, before joining her daughter on the bed after dimming the lights on her bedroom.

"Are you excited for your wedding? Because I am. I cannot wait to see you in your wedding dress as you walk down the aisle to get married. You would be the most beautiful bride on that day." She said, almost a whisper next to Su Xiaofei.

"You are really okay with me marrying this early, Mama?" Su Xiaofei asked in return.

"Why not? I wouldn't have agreed if I didn't trust you and Xiao Feng. I'm not sure if Xiao Feng has already told you, but he already asked for your hand in marriage before leaving for Shenjing years ago."

At her mother's words, Su Xiaofei was rendered speechless. She had no idea that Lu Qingfeng had gone that far before leaving.

"I wasn't able to give him the blessing because I thought that you two were still too young to consider marriage and he was rushing into it." Yun Qingrong continued.

Su Xiaofei understood her mother, because she also felt the same at that time. She was also still undecided and wasn't ready to accept Lu Qingfeng's feelings for her back then.

However, this time, she was more than ready. Su Xiaofei knew that she was able to love him, and only him without any reservations. She was willing to give her heart to him, hoping that he would take care of it and prove to her that she didn't make a mistake loving him.

"I love him, Mama and I don't think there's another man who could love me more than he does."

Su Xiaofei was certain of this and would never question his love for her. She wouldn't have agreed to marrying him if she wasn't sure about him.

"Then, that is all that matters to me, Feifei. I just want you to be happy." Yun Qingrong patted her daughter's head and sighed in relief. With Lu Qingfeng beside her Feifei, she wouldn't need to worry too much about her daughter after she died.

"You and Xiao Feng are both good looking. I have no doubt that my future grandchildren would also steal the hearts of many people." She commented.

"Mama!" Su Xiaofei groaned and pulled the blanket to cover her blushing face. Her mother must really enjoy seeing her flustered like this. She had no doubt now that her mother knew what was going on between her and Lu Qingfeng late at nights.

"Xiao Feng is still young, so I wouldn't be surprised if the two of you won't start a family as soon as you get married and I think that's okay, Feifei. I know I am the reason why you two decided to hold your wedding this early, when you have just started seeing each other." Yun Qingrong said with regret in her tone. If she hadn't mentioned her dream to Lu Qingfeng during her outburst, she knew that they wouldn't be rushing their marriage like this.

She clasped her hand with her daughter's, trying not to cry as she imagined the future without her by Feifei's side. She could only hope that Feifei would be able to overcome her grief after her death, and lead a happy life with Lu Qingfeng.

"You and Xiao Feng should be enjoying so many dates in each other's company, learning new things about each other now that you are together. So, Feifei, it's alright if you and Xiao Feng enjoy the first years of your marriage with each other. Don't let others, especially his relatives, pressure you to bear him a child. The important thing is that you trust each other and are willing to compromise things to make your relationship work." Yun Qingrong continued, aware of the ways of the conversative and affluent families like the Lu family.

Su Xiaofei smiled in understanding, but her heart clenched painfully in her chest, knowing that her mother was trying to prepare her for the life that was waiting for her once Yun Qingrong was gone.
