Rebirth Of The Villainess: Young Master Lu's Wicked Wife
Chapter 266 - A Vengeful Woman (2)Andrew Si had been walking back and forth, waiting for Su Xiaofei's arrival. Because he wasn't able to find a loophole he could take advantage of against Su Xiaofei, he knew then that he didn't have any choice but to agree with her conditions. If it meant that he would be able to reunite with his younger sister and see for himself if what Su Xiaofei claimed was true.
The more seconds passed without Su Xiaofei showing up, the more anxious Andrew Si became. Still, he couldn't really blame her for acting this way since he was the one who was at a disadvantage.
He lifted his head the moment the door opened, revealing Su Xiaofei dressed in a beige colored dress that revealed her smooth collarbone and delicate neckline.
"Mr. Si, please take a seat. I apologize for being late." Su Xiaofei gestured for him to take a seat. She had a smile on her face, but her eyes showed that she wasn't truly bothered whether she made Andrew Si wait for her or not.
The designer could only take a seat to stop himself from pacing around. Now that Su Xiaofei was here, he only needed to confirm whether his sister was alive and safe. She was the only one who was able to find a lead about his sister's whereabouts, but he couldn't quite believe her claims about Si Yuxuan's mental condition.
Once Su Xiaofei was seated, Zhang Ling stepped forward and handed Andrew Si the documents he hadn't seen during their first meeting.
The man gave Su Xiaofei a conflicted look, but the latter remained calm and asked Zhang Lan to bring them some refreshment instead.
"What is it now? Are the conditions you set earlier isn't to your liking anymore, Miss Su?" Andrew Si asked.

I suppose you need to know her condition first before meeting her. I have to warn you though, that Si Yuxuan is distrustful of other people because she was abandoned by her foster parents before." Su Xiaofei explained.
It pained Andrew Si to know that his sister had to suffer like that. While he was able to enjoy the perks of being adopted by a wealthy couple, his sister not only faced random criticisms but also dealt with being unwanted by someone.
He didn't waste time and flipped through the document, his eyes lingering on the photo of his sister attached in the upper left corner of the first page. Andrew Si then mustered all the courage he had and turned the page, revealing his sister's medical records.
The records were concise and easy to understand, although it didn't offer answers to him as to why his sister ended up like this. In his memories, Si Yuxuan was his adorable little sister, whom he and their mother adored the most. It was hard to believe that after his adoption, his sister would end up like this.
Andrew Si couldn't remember anyone in their family who had mental retardation. He was able to meet their father at a young age, but because they were merely children of an ex-wife, he knew that it would be impossible for him and Si Yuxuan to ask for their father's support.
"I can arrange your meeting as soon as you sign the contract." Su Xiaofei's words brought Andrew Si back from his trance. "Unfortunately, there would be no room for negotiation. I only expect your cooperation, nothing else."
Andrew Si had met a lot of young misses from wealthy families in the past, but none of them was as overbearing as Su Xiaofei. It was hard for him to believe that someone as young as her was able to corner him like this.
"I'll agree with the terms as long as you take responsibility for it." He told Su Xiaofei.
Su Xiaofei's eyes lit up upon hearing his answer. She knew that the man wouldn't be able to resist for too long.
"Don't worry, Mr. Si. I'll make sure you won't regret accepting my proposition." She replied, before allowing Zhang Ling to take over the contract signing between them.
Once everything was settled, Su Xiaofei extended a hand towards Andrew Si.
"For the success of our cooperation." She said, waiting for the man to accept her gesture.
"En." Andrew Si replied, giving her a firm handshake, officially sealing their deal.
"Then please prepare for a long trip tomorrow, Mr. Si. One of my assistants will be going over to your place to pick you up."
"You mean you're bringing me to where my sister is?" He raised a slender brow at her in question.
"Why, of course. I intend to fulfill my part of our deal, Mr. Si, and I expect you not to back down on your words. If we were able to locate your sister without a problem, we could also do the opposite if you failed to do your part."
Su Xiaofei's words were enough to warn Andrew Si not to mess with her future plans, because it would be a real pity to make him her enemy.
Andrew Si frowned upon hearing her words, but didn't make any comments about it. It was easy for him to tell that this woman was not only a vicious woman, but also a vengeful one. One reason why he also conceded with her proposition was to see for himself the kind of future that awaited a person like Su Xiaofei.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThis was their third meeting, and yet he felt some familiarity towards her, but Andrew Si was sure that they had never met in the past, prior to their meeting during Chen Li's case. It would be hard for anyone to forget a person as striking as Su Xiaofei.
"Fine. I'll be waiting then." He said, before turning to leave, wondering if he made the right choice in getting involved with this young woman.
As promised, Zhang Lan showed up right outside Andrew Si's front door the next morning. The man opened the door of his apartment, looking aghast and exhausted. It was obvious to Zhang Lan that the man hadn't slept a wink as he waited for his impending meeting with his sister that day.
Right outside his apartment complex, there were three luxurious black cars waiting for them. One of the windows of the first car was lowered, revealing Su Xiaofei's clean face to Andrew Si's view.
For a moment, Andrew Si thought that he was looking at Bai Qingyue when he saw the young woman waiting for him. However, the moment their eyes met, he was reminded that this young woman was a wolf in sheep's clothing. The way she smiled sent shivers down one's spine, and he couldn't help but sense an ominous feeling.
"Good morning, Mr. Si. I hope that you are ready for today's event." Su Xiaofei greeted him without bothering to alight from the car she was in. Her smile was wide, but she wasn't able to assure Andrew Si that everything would be okay later. He was still dreading the anticipation and fear about this supposed meeting with his long-lost sister.
Andrew Si didn't have enough energy to question her and only nodded. He didn't want to put his expectations up, as he had been repeatedly disappointed in the past by the other private investigators he hired.
Once he got into the other car, their small group started their long trip to the orphanage Su Xiaofei and Lu Qingfeng visited a few weeks ago. As Su Xiaofei cupped the side of her face, watching the familiar sceneries pass, she wondered yet again how Lu Qingfeng was faring in Shenjing.
It hadn't been a week since he left, but she was starting to miss him so badly. As promised, Lu Qingfeng hadn't forgotten to give her a call in the mornings and at night. Thinking about it, the moment she died in her previous life and became a wandering ghost, up to the day she was reborn, she had never been parted for too long from Lu Qingfeng.
Was this what people called love sickness? Su Xiaofei wondered.
Was this what Lu Qingfeng felt when she had gone and chose to marry Mo Yuchen in her previous life?
She had never felt this way when she was still infatuated with Mo Yuchen. Yet, spending a few months with Lu Qingfeng since her rebirth was able to make her yearn for his presence during his absence. She had to admit that he was able to instill emotions that she wasn't aware of in her.
Su Xiaofei sighed for the umpteenth time of the day. She would need to wait until nighttime for her to be able to hear his voice again. Only by making herself busy was she able to force her mind not to think of him, but she couldn't help counting the days that had passed since he left.
