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

Chapter 436 Never Let Go (1)

Su Xiaofei was already done with her talk with her mother an hour ago and had returned to the suite she shared with her husband. She was aware that Xi Qian was still outside, but she decided to leave her best friend be, for now, to allow Xi Qian to unwind.

However, as she finished reading the reports she received from Zhang Ling, who was left to supervise her office, Su Xiaofei was starting to get bored waiting for Lu Qingfeng's return. Shouldn't they be enjoying this long weekend together?

Her phone beeped, and she immediately read what Lu Qingfeng had sent her.

'I'll be there in a minute.' He said.

She smiled before laying on her stomach on the bed and waited. She briefly wondered if Lu Qingfeng was able to remember the things that happened in their previous life and what he felt about it?

Actually, his admission of being able to remember snippets of what happened in their previous life startled her. Su Xiaofei didn't know whether she should tell him what she knew because she didn't want him to blame himself for what happened to her.

Really, it was no one's fault but hers. Lu Qingfeng couldn't possibly save her from her own foolishness when she had fought fiercely with her mother to marry Mo Yuchen before. Hadn't she also broken his heart in the process?

Her thoughts were pulled to a halt when she heard the door of their suite open and saw Lu Qingfeng stepping inside. She immediately sat up and beamed him a smile.

"Hey." She called after him.

Lu Qingfeng's gaze immediately softened upon seeing her and joined her on the bed.

"Sorry. The meeting took longer than I expected." He leaned forward and pressed his lips against the corner of her mouth.

Su Xiaofei trembled at the touch, desire unfurling inside her like a blooming orchid in spring. She tilted her head, so their lips could fit better. Her hands rose to wrap around his shoulders and drew him closer. Her right hand traveled up and stopped over his heart, feeling it thud against her palm.

With no further permission needed, Lu Qingfeng deepened their kiss, and he grew hungry with the way she responded to him, wanting to consume her and enjoy this moment with her. When they parted, he enjoyed seeing her panting for breath, her cheeks reddening with a deep blush.

"What were you doing earlier?" He asked, noticing that some papers were left on the nightstand.

Su Xiaofei shrugged and allowed him to draw her on his lap, arms wrapping around her.

"Nothing. Just reviewing some paperwork." She paused as she remembered what she was thinking before he arrived earlier.

"Also, I've been thinking if you were having those odd dreams again." She admitted, trying to see if her husband would reveal more to her. She wanted to know just how much Lu Qingfeng knew about their past life.

Lu Qingfeng stiffened and fell silent for a moment. He knew well that there were things he couldn't hide from her, not when Mo Yuchen was threatening to break their peace and happiness with his presence. He considered his words, wanting nothing but to make sure that his wife wouldn't misunderstand him.

"Have you ever heard of alternate realities?"

Su Xiaofei cocked her head to one side, wondering what her husband was trying to point out now.

"En."

Of course having worked as an actress in her previous life, she had encountered projects with such themes, but it made her more curious of what Lu Qingfeng was trying to prove to her.

He nodded.

"After gaining those memories that I'm pretty sure are not from this timeline, it makes me feel like I'm not from this reality. The memories that are somehow infused in me have already passed and have glaring differences from the events that happened to us."

Su Xiaofei's mind went blank.

"You lost me. I don't understand… What are the differences? And how sure are you that the time has already passed?"

"In my odd memories, you died three years into your marriage with Mo Yuchen." Lu Qingfeng said, without breaking their gazes. "And not for the first time, I have two memories of seeing you dead."

Su Xiaofei sucked in a deep breath. She thought she would understand him better since she was able to remember the memories from her previous life. What if that wasn't the case instead? What if she was forgetting something valuable from the past?

"What do you mean twice?" She questioned him confusedly. Didn't she only die once before?

"I'm saying that in two different events, you died, and I was a hopeless soul without you." Lu Qingfeng said, trying to gauge her reaction. He wasn't sure if it was alright to imply that he had lived two lifetimes already. However, he also wanted to know the reason he and Su Xiaofei were reborn at the same time with intact memories from their previous lives.

"It's odd, but after taking a peek into the memories of the other 'Lu Qingfeng', I feel like I'm way older now." He said with a weak laugh, as if he was trying to reduce the awkwardness between them.

Well, technically, he was older in terms of mental age compared to Su Xiaofei. She had died in his previous lives, not passing the age of thirty and while he remembered being killed by Mo Yuchen in his first life, he managed to outlive them in his second one.

Su Xiaofei didn't respond, in part because she had no idea what to say. She had known she had the memories of her previous life, but how sure was she that she wasn't in an alternate reality, like Lu Qingfeng was saying?

In all honesty, she had never considered that such a thing was possible. What if she was living in a parallel reality then? She had even seen her downfall and Lu Qingfeng's end before.
