Rebirth Of The Villainess: Young Master Lu's Wicked Wife
Chapter 465 Aftermath (3)Due to yesterday's events, Su Xiaofei had overslept, oblivious to the fact that her name and the video of her little dancing competition with Ye Mingyu had been circulated around social media and entertainment news.
Lu Qingfeng watched the video as he ate his breakfast alone, watching the rare glint of excitement in his wife's eyes as she danced to the beat of the music. He had never thought that he would be able to see it in this lifetime, after she abandoned the path of being an actress to follow her mother's footsteps in the business world.
He then thought that regardless of what lifetime they were living, Su Xiaofei still couldn't avoid the limelight altogether. Not only was she born from the popular actress, Bai Qingyue, but she had this passion that couldn't be easily extinguished when it comes to performing.
However, that morning, Su Xiaofei and Ye Mingyu were not the only ones who made the news, Xiao Rufeng's younger sister, Xiao Yunyao, was also forcefully pulled under the spotlight. The younger Xiao sister had been exposed to bribing the affected customers of their cosmetic company to withdraw the lawsuits they filed against them.
Lu Qingfeng furrowed his brows. He was certain that his wife wasn't involved in this sudden development against Xiao Yunyao, since his wife was still asleep in their now shared bedroom in his penthouse.
So who could it possibly be? He wondered.
It was obvious that this was an act to defame Xiao Yunyao, but aside from Su Xiaofei, Lu Qingfeng wasn't sure who else the younger Xiao sister had offended. The public was harshly criticizing her at the moment and their company was being called out by consumer groups for Xiao Yunyao's recent acts.

"Good morning, sleepyhead." Lu Qingfeng slightly inclined his head on his right as Su Xiaofei came to give him his usual good morning kiss on his cheek.
"Morning." She grumbled, and ran her fingers through her thick and messy mane, trying to tame it down.This chapter is updated by Noᴠelꜰire
Su Xiaofei was wearing one of his shirts she found last night in his wardrobe. Since she was too tired to open her larger luggage for her nightclothes, she chose to borrow his for the meantime. The sleeves hung loosely from her shoulders and the seams reached her mid thighs, barely covering the boyshorts she was wearing.
Lu Qingfeng forced his eyes away from her chest, remembering what his hands had accidentally 'touched' that morning when he woke up earlier. He cleared his throat and pushed another plate serving with her meal towards her.
"Want some coffee?" He asked, trying to think of something other than throwing his wife over his shoulder and ravishing her in the bedroom.
"No, thank you." Su Xiaofei replied and started eating her breakfast. "Have they picked up Xiao Rufeng already?" She asked.
Lu Qingfeng already anticipated that she would ask him this question and nodded.
"Zhang Ling just called and informed me that they were driving Miss Xiao to her residence. There was a slight commotion at the hotel, but everything is under control." He answered.
His wife nodded and released a sigh.
"I think I should thank Yan Xiuchen properly one of these days. Do you think we'll be able to invite him for dinner?"
"He's a busy man, but I might be able to ask him at our next meeting this coming weekend. Would you like to come with me and invite him yourself?" He offered.
Su Xiaofei paused and gave it a good thought. She had seen how close her husband was with his friends, something she had never seen before even in her previous life. Somehow, she was relieved to know that Lu Qingfeng now had friends to rely on and that was slowly accepting other people in his life. She would never want to see him in the same state he was after she died previously.
She shook her head. "Can't."
"Why?" Lu Qingfeng wondered. Was his wife feeling uncomfortable meeting Yan Xiuchen? But she didn't seem to mind looking at his scarred face from their previous meetings.
"It's your special day to spend time with your brothers. I don't think I should come with you during your meetings with them."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLu Qingfeng felt elated by her words and smiled. He also agreed with her. He could see how uncomfortable his brothers were when he brought her with him the first time. They were guarded, their words carefully chosen in front of Su Xiaofei, but their eyes glanced around in silent understanding.
"Alright. I'll extend the invitation to Song Yiran too, if you are okay with it."
"Yeah, sure. He'd been a great help last night." His wife agreed as she continued her meal.
Suddenly, the peacefulness of their morning was broken when his phone rang again.
Lu Qingfeng picked up his phone to see who was calling him, surprised to see Qiao Fengying's number.
"Uncle Qiao, good morning." He said as soon as he answered the phone, catching his wife's attention in the process.
"Ah, still the same as Xiaofei? When will the two of you call me 'Dad' or 'Father'?" Qiao Fengying laughed with amusement.
Lu Qingfeng fell silent at that and suddenly felt uncomfortable. For so many years, he was used to not having a family he could rely on, except for his grandfather. However, now that he was married to Su Xiaofei, he understood that his family was also growing.
"Is something the matter, Uncle Qiao?" He asked, not wanting to answer his father-in-law's previous question.
"Ah, I heard Xiaofei is here in Shenjing. Shulan asked me if you could come and pay us a visit whenever you and Xiaofei are free."
Lu Qingfeng lowered his phone and covered the mouthpiece to ask Su Xiaofei, who easily agreed and accepted her father's invitation.
