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

Chapter 113 - Why Is It Hard To Make Money? (3)

Lu Qingfeng was obviously not in the mood to eat anything sweet at the moment, as he sat across from the siblings, who were enjoying their strawberry parfaits. He looked at the young boy seated next to Su Xiaofei, and he was reminded why he couldn't be angry with Qiao Yuhan.

It wasn't the boy's fault that he couldn't win a single round in their game earlier. Lu Qingfeng had never thought that he would lose against Qiao Yuhan at all.

"Xiao Feng, don't sulk just because Xiao Han kicked your ass. You have to man up and admit defeat once in a while." Su Xiaofei grinned at him, knowing that he was a little ashamed to be beaten by a boy half his age.

"I didn't lose. I allowed him to win." He scoffed and looked away.

It would be embarrassing for him if Su Xiaofei knew that he was an adult man that lost to a young boy, and Lu Qingfeng would rather not let her know about it. Thankfully, the Qiao family was about to return to Shenjing, so he wouldn't need to spend more time with Qiao Yuhan.

"Xiao Han, be good to your parents once you return to Shenjing, okay?" Su Xiaofei patted Qiao Yuhan's head affectionately. In her previous life, one of the grievances her little brother held in his heart was that his parents were rarely at home to accompany him.

"But I'm always alone." Qiao Yuhan lowered his head as he thought how he would be left alone again once they returned home. It would have been better if he could stay and live here in Qiying City, so he could always see Fei Jie and Qian Jie whenever they had free time.

Su Xiaofei was at a loss for words, but she understood where the boy was coming from. This was exactly how she felt when her mother and Su Haoran were always away for work, leaving her in the company of her nannies and housekeepers.

It was very lonely until she met Lu Qingfeng one day and eventually befriended Xi Qian. Since then, their company had made her forget about her loneliness of being left behind.

"Say, Xiao Han, do you have any friends at school?" She asked the little boy.

Qiao Yuhan shook his head. He was too shy to make friends with his peers and classmates.

"Why don't you try making friends with them? You don't need to befriend all your classmates, but it would be nice if you have one or two friends you can spend time with. You know, maybe they are just like you, they need someone to play with while their parents are busy with work."

"Just like you and Qian Jie?" Qiao Yuhan asked.

"En. Xiao Feng is also my friend. You can befriend girls too if you want." She suggested.

Qioa Yuhan remained silent as he gave it a good thought. So it didn't really matter how many friends he should have.

As he glanced at Su Xiaofei smiling brightly at Lu Qingfeng, who was still upset about his loss earlier, the boy wanted the kind of friendship they had. It seemed like Fei Jie trusted his Brother Lu so much that she was able to smile like this in his presence.

"Okay. I think… I think I will give it a try, Fei Jie." He answered.

"Then that's good." Su Xiaofei nodded, pleased that Qiao Yuhan was willing to give it a try. "If there's anything, you can just give me and your Qian Jie a call, but don't forget to message us first, okay?" She winked at him.

Since it had already turned out this way, then she would keep in touch with the Qiao family without revealing her true relationship with them. If Bai Qingyue found out that she was close to the Qiao family, Su Xiaofei knew that the woman would rack her brain, wondering if her secret had been found out.

Su Xiaofei supposed that if her father and Liu Shulan were able to see her on television in her past life, they wouldn't be able to suspect her identity because she was legally named as Yun Qingrong's daughter.

As to why the truth about her being adopted wasn't broadcast to the public, she surmised that it was because revealing the adoption in public by a married couple meant that they were infertile.

Knowing Su Haoran's personality, he definitely wouldn't want his virility as a man to be questioned by anyone, and he wouldn't dare to make the Yun family his enemy by revealing Yun Qingrong's inability to conceive a child.

'Heh, as always, it's always about himself.' Su Xiaofei thought as she watched Qiao Yuhan finish his parfait.

Once they were done, she and Lu Qingfeng dropped the boy back at the hotel where his family is currently staying. The two left almost immediately as Su Xiaofei had no intention of meeting her father again so soon.

As Nine drove the car to take Su Xiaofei home, she shut her eyes and sighed next to Lu Qingfeng.

"What is it now?" He asked, sensing her distress.

Su Xiaofei opened her eyes and groaned.

"Xiao Feng, why is it hard to make money? I wouldn't be able to save up 100 million at this rate." She complained. "No wonder some women tried to marry filthy rich men to save their asses." She pouted.

Lu Qingfeng raised a slender brow at her. He had never heard her complain about money before, as she would always be the one to spend it without giving it a second thought.

"Since when did our Feifei realize that it's hard to earn money?" He asked.

"Since I decided not to marry Mo Yuchen and to save Mama's company in the future."

As she said this, her phone beeped, indicating a new message. As she read the message she received, the corner of her lips curled up.

It was time to meet the Yun family.
