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

Chapter 529 We Meet Again (1)

Su Xiaofei had been waiting. Waiting for her mother to wake up and for Ye Mingyu and Chen Hao to make a move. However, Yun Qingrong remained unresponsive and Ye Mingyu hadn't made any move to reach out to her.

'She's probably still figuring out how to fulfill the part of the deal with Chen Hao.' Su Xiaofei thought as she sat next to her mother's hospital bed, wiping Yun Qingrong's arm with a damp, clean washcloth.

"I wish you would wake up soon. I have so much to tell you." She whispered to her mother.

Su Xiaofei missed her mother terribly. She wanted to hear Yun Qingrong's voice and see her smile again. It suddenly felt so long since she talked to Yun Qingrong and wondered when she would wake up.

Yun Qingrong's complexion was starting to improve and her body wasn't rejecting the organs Bai Qingyue donated, much to Su Xiaofei's relief. However, there was no telling when she would wake up. The doctors couldn't give them any definite answer as to why Yun Qingrong remained in a coma when her body was obviously recovering well.

"A lot of things happen while you sleep. Do you really want to miss all of it? I want to bring you to Hazel Brew Cafe once again and catch up with you. Those old geezers at the company are still bullying me to this day." Su Xiaofei whispered, as she looked at mother with worry.

She knew that she couldn't force the heavens to grant every wish she had in her heart, but Su Xiaofei really wanted to see and talk to her mother once again.

"Bai Qingyue donated her organs to save you. Surprising isn't it?" She chuckled amusedly. "I would have never thought that she would do something outrageous like that, but I suppose we owe her a great favor from now on."

The door opened and Yan Mei entered. She smiled when she saw Su Xiaofei and greeted her.

"Xiao Feng didn't come with you?" Yan Mei asked Su Xiaofei as she placed a vase with fresh flowers on the table. She had been the one staying with Yun Qingrong when everyone else wasn't around and Su Xiaofei was relieved to know that Yan Mei was here.

Su Xiaofei shook her head. She came here straight from Bluemedia and she wasn't expecting Lu Qingfeng to be here all the time. She wouldn't find fault with him if he couldn't come and visit her mother.

"He's busy with work, but he said he would drop by and see Mama once he's free. I'm sorry that I couldn't stay and look after her.We've been swamped."

Lu Qingfeng had decided to occupy the study back at home and do all his work remotely. It only meant more video conferences and phone calls for him to attend to, since he could not be in Shenjing until he was certain that his wife was out of danger. He also made her security a bit tighter than usual, and Su Xiaofei hadn't complained about it at all.

"Of course you are. You and Lu Qingfeng are running companies and many people rely on you. You two are working so hard. It's a pity that you couldn't have a decent honeymoon after your wedding."

Yan Mei took a seat on the couch and looked at the mother and daughter pair. She then realized the weight of the sacrifice Bai Qingyue had made for Su Xiaofei's sake and finally understood her motives.

"That could wait, Aunt Mei. A-Feng and I would be able to have as many honeymoons as we want once all of this is over." Su Xiaofei replied with a slight blush on her face.

"Dear, time isn't owned by anyone. It's not something you have control of. Don't take it for granted, Feifei. Let's try to avoid any regrets in the future."

Su Xiaofei fell silent at that. Yan Mei was right. She had almost forgotten about that. Now that her life was far from the miserable life she used to have in her previous life, she couldn't predict what could happen in the future.

She was suddenly unsure about what awaits her and Lu Qingfeng in the future and she was careless to think that they had absolute control of the future. She just wanted to lead a happy life with her family, but she knew that unless she got rid of Ye Mingyu and Mo Yuchen from her life, that wouldn't be possible to attain.

"I see. Thank you for reminding me, Aunt Mei."

She knew then that she needed to reconsider her priorities from that moment and should discuss this with her husband. With Ye Mingyu and Chen Hao coming after her, it was hard for her to tell what their next move would be.

A knock on the door brought her back to reality. Lu Qingfeng stepped inside the room and greeted Yan Mei, before kissing Su Xiaofei's cheek.

"Still the same?" He asked, taking a quick glance at Yun Qingrong worriedly.

It's been weeks and the rest of them were starting to get restless waiting for her to wake up. Old General Yun had also come and visited her whenever he could, but he couldn't stay longer like the rest of them.

"En, although the doctors assured us that she's doing well." Yan Mei was the one who answered his question. Since she was the one who stayed with Yun Qingrong throughout the day, she was most familiar with the progress of her treatments and condition.

"I see." Lu Qingfeng sighed and took a seat, looking more tired than usual.

Su Xiaofei furrowed her brows and knew that Lu Qingfeng had come here as soon as he finished today's agenda. The dark circles beneath his eyes were starting to become prominent due to his lack of sleep.

"Are you alright? You look paler than usual." Yan Mei glanced at him, then turned to her niece.

"I'm fine, Madam. Just a little too tired from work." He grunted and Su Xiaofei shot him a worried look.

Lu Qingfeng wouldn't have to force himself like this if it wasn't for her. Still, she couldn't afford to be distracted by her guilt.

Yan Mei nodded before excusing herself and left the couple, giving them the privacy they needed.

"Are you sure you want to stay here? Aren't you more needed in Shenjing?" Su Xiaofei took a seat and placed a hand on his forehead to make sure he wasn't having any fever.

"I'm fine, Feifei. It's not like the company would fail without me there. I don't need to micromanage everyone." He assured her. Her safety was far more important to him than anything in this world.

"Chen Hao hasn't made a move yet, has it?" She asked.

Lu Qingfeng nodded, but that didn't mean he didn't make any move against Chen Hao. He would make sure Chen Hao wouldn't be able to think of lusting after his wife once he took everything from him.

"We're already keeping an eye on him and Ye Mingyu. He made a few phone calls to her, but she only answered once." He told her instead.

"She's probably still making plans to approach me." Su Xiaofei sighed.

There must be something else she could do rather than wait for Ye Mingyu to harm her.

To be honest, it disappointed her that Ye Mingyu's scheming ability was subpar compared to what she used to do in Su Xiaofei's previous life. The Ye Mingyu in this lifetime had repeatedly failed on her quest to destroy her life.

'Perhaps this was for the better.' She thought and lowered her gaze as Lu Qingfeng drew her close to him.

Su Xiaofei couldn't help but think of Ye Mingyu and her past life. If it was the same scheming Ye Mingyu she was facing right now, Su Xiaofei wasn't sure if she would be able to outwit her. She was such a foolish person in her past life, and there wouldn't be much difference now. She could only be cautious and prepared for the time Ye Mingyu strikes.

"Well, the more she hesitates, the more favorable it is for us." Lu Qingfeng pointed out. Indeed, Ye Mingyu was sparing them some time to prepare as she hesitated.

"Right." She chuckled. "Her two remaining brain cells must be fighting to come up with a better plan."

"Then we must pray that they kill each other so she wouldn't come up with any more ridiculous ideas." Her husband grinned.

Lu Qingfeng ran his fingers gently over her long hair when she laid her head on his lap as they occupied the couch in her mother's hospital room. He didn't want to miss times like this in this lifetime. He waited for a long time just to be with her, so how could he allow anyone to hurt his wife?

Su Xiaofei shut her eyes and hummed. Whatever Ye Mingyu was up to, she would make sure that she would have the last laugh.
