Chapter 368 - I Think I’ve Spoiled You Rotten (2)
When Su Xiaofei returned home, instead of going to her own room, she chose to go to the guestroom to see Lu Qingfeng. She thought that her fiancé would still be awake by this time, but Lu Qingfeng was already asleep on the bed. She eyed the documents that were still in his hands as he slept.
Su Xiaofei gently took them from him and set them aside. It was rare for Lu Qingfeng to fall asleep on his own, and it made her wonder if he was trying to tire himself out in order to be able to sleep again. She also knew that he had tried his best to quickly finish his work in order to free his time that afternoon to accompany her and her mother.
Her heart ached as she gently brushed her fingertips on his face, realizing that they truly needed one another. She knew that in this world, she would never be able to find and meet a man like him. She also knew that there would be no other person who'd treat her with as much gentleness and patience as Lu Qingfeng.
How could she not love him more? Every time she doubted love, Lu Qingfeng was always there to prove that a person like her deserved to be loved too.
Perhaps it was because Lu Qingfeng was a light sleeper and felt her touch, he opened his eyes and looked at her with exhaustion. He forced himself to sit properly and held her arm.
"I thought you wouldn't come here tonight." He murmured, but his gaze softened, and his heartbeat became steady, now that she was back on his side.
"I thought you wouldn't be able to sleep well without your human pillow." Su Xiaofei smirked at him, allowing Lu Qingfeng to pull her into his embrace.
"I know you are eager to sleep, but I haven't eaten or bathed yet." She complained to him. Having Mo Yuchen staring at her the whole time during the meeting had made her conscious about her surroundings. She also didn't like being watched as she ate her meal.
"You must be tired then. Let me prepare a quick dinner for you. Go and take a bath first."
Lu Qingfeng didn't dare to question why she didn't have an appetite to eat anything earlier, for he knew the possibility of her meeting Mo Yuchen tonight. He was curious if that stupid man dared to bully his wife again. However, that could wait as he needed to feed Su Xiaofei, and he could wait until morning to hear the Zhang siblings' report.
He intended to leave the bed to allow Su Xiaofei to take a bath first while he prepared her dinner downstairs, but Su Xiaofei didn't budge from her position.
"Let me hold you like this for a minute. It has only been hours since we parted, but I already missed you so badly." Su Xiaofei said. "Lu Qingfeng, what have you done to me?"
A small smile crossed Lu Qingfeng's lips as he held her close to his heart. For Su Xiaofei, it might only be mere hours or years, but for him, he had waited lifetimes just to be with her today.
"I think I've spoiled you rotten. Now you cannot be without me, Feifei." He chuckled.
The woman in his embrace now wasn't President Su nor a social media celebrity that filled his feeds lately, but she was the woman he was about to marry. How can he not dote on her if she was acting like this?
Su Xiaofei hummed and shut her eyes as she listened to his steady heartbeat. Oddly, hearing his heartbeat and smelling his familiar scent somewhat soothed her nerve, calming her in the process. Her previous meeting with Mo Yuchen was forgotten as she held onto Lu Qingfeng.
"It's your fault, so you better take responsibility for it."
"My bad."
Once Su Xiaofei was satisfied, she released Lu Qingfeng and went to her own room to take a bath. Her mood was now better after seeing and talking to Lu Qingfeng. However, as she stepped into the shower stall, she couldn't help but think about Mo Yuchen's sudden change and his proposal.
It wasn't like Mo Yuchen was lying to her. It was true that after the collaboration of the two queens, Bai Qingyue and Tang Liyan's popularity soared to another level. Su Xiaofei had been paying attention to the opinions of the fans, especially to Tang Liyan's loyal fans. Many of them were pleased to see her in such an advertisement, but most were curious on how they would perform side by side when it comes to acting.
Modeling was one thing, but acting was on another level. It was rare to find a pretty face that could truly act and could perform under pressure and challenges. So for Tang Liyan to act in the same film with Bai Qingyue, it was only natural that her performance would be under scrutiny, not only by the movie goers and fans, but also by the critics.
"I must be losing my mind if I agree to his suggestion."
It wasn't unheard of for two entertainment agencies to produce films and series together, but Su Xiaofei would rather work with Ouyang family's Top Tier Entertainment than with Mo Yuchen's Golden Star.
When she went downstairs to see what Lu Qingfeng was making, she wasn't surprised when she found him cooking noodles for her in the kitchen. Lu Qingfeng told her to go to take a seat as he finished cooking. He was fast, as if he had done it for a long time.
Lu Qingfeng chopped the meat and the vegetables as the noodles were being cooked in the pot of boiling water. Soon, two fragrant bowls of noodles were ready.
They moved to the dining room and Lu Qingfeng brought some steamed meat dumplings for her to eat.. Seeing him like this, Su Xiaofei thought that she was really at home with him.
