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

Chapter 18 - Shameless Mother And Daughter (1)

Back then, she was oblivious of the glaring hints of her identity while people snickered behind her back. She wouldn't be surprised if Mo Yuchen was also aware of it, hence, he couldn't really accept her as his wife.

Su Xiaofei was foolish to think that she would spend the rest of her life with him. She remembered the moment their marriage ended with divorce, Mo Yuchen had stared at her with hateful eyes. At the time of her death, it wasn't even Mo Yuchen who was by her side professing his undying love for her, it was Lu Qingfeng.

The resentment she had in her heart, would the day that she would be able to let it go ever come?

Ha. It was impossible for her to live happily without grievances this time around. It was almost like an impossible dream for Su Xiaofei to live such a peaceful life.

"Miss Xiaofei, what are you doing standing here in the hallway?"

Su Xiaofei turned her head and found Housekeeper Chen smiling at her. She lowered her gaze to hide the viciousness in her eyes. The first pest had shown herself.

Housekeeper Chen was a distant relative of Su Haoran and along with her son, Chen Hao and daughter, Chen Li, the three moved into the Su Residence when Madam Chen's husband passed away from a serious illness five years ago.

"Mom, we should get going. I'm starving."

The young woman next to Housekeeper Chen was her daughter, Chen Li. This girl was haughty and arrogant, and although she was only the daughter of a housekeeper, her clothes and her hands were like those of those young heiresses of the other wealthy families.

This was because Chen Li liked to take the clothes that Su Xiaofei didn't like or wasn't wearing anymore. Considering the amount of clothes Yun Qingrong had bought for her, it was no wonder that they had turned a whole room on the third floor of their home into a huge closet that contained all the clothes Su Xiaofei owned.

Most of them were unused, some still even had the tags on it. The Chen family came from a countryside, remote village, and for Chen Li, the sight of such extravagance only fed her greed and envy towards everything Su Xiaofei had.

Su Xiaofei turned her attention to the fifteen-year-old Chen Li with a black gaze. The clothes Chen Li wore were a gift Su Xiaofei received from her mother on her sixteenth birthday. She wasn't able to use and wear these clothes because Yun Qingrong made a mistake with her measurements and ended up buying a size smaller than Su Xiaofei's figure.

Sensing that Su Xiaofei was looking at her, Chen Li felt nervous and avoided meeting her miss's eyes. She felt like she was under the gaze of a wild beast, ready to pounce on her.

"These clothes…. Aunty Chen, I didn't know that you are now capable of purchasing such a limited edition dress from Chanel. It seems like we don't have to keep you here anymore." Su Xiaofei cupped her chin and made a gesture to scan Chen Li's look from head to toe.

Chen Li not only stole clothes from her, but she also enjoyed using the shoes and makeup Su Xiaofei had left at the Su Residence when she married Mo Yuchen in her past life.

The older woman's face blanched upon hearing Su Xiaofei's words. Of course she was aware of her daughter's actions, but she never bothered to correct Chen Li's ways. This was because she knew Su Xiaofei wasn't really Su Haoran's daughter, and they could easily get away with anything in this household with his help.

Also, Su Xiaofei had never bothered with it in the past. She must have known that Chen Li liked to take some of her clothes from the third floor closet, but she never made comments about it until now.

Yun Qingrong was also rarely home, so issues like this were not highlighted.

Housekeeper Chen opened her mouth, but no words came out. Why did she suddenly feel that Su Xiaofei was threatening her?

"Oh? Now that I look at it, isn't this the same gift Mama gave me on my sixteenth birthday? Chen Li, this really suits you well." She heard Su Xiaofei say, which almost gave Housekeeper Chen a heart attack.

Housekeeper Chen gave her daughter an incredulous look. Of all the things Chen Li could take from Su Xiaofei's walk-in closet, why would she get an expensive one at that?!

It was a pity that Chen Li was oblivious to the situation she and her mother was in. She gave Su Xiaofei an arrogant huff and crossed her arms over her chest, her long hair flowing over her shoulder.

"Isn't that right? Mom won't believe me when I say that I have good taste in clothes." She bragged, which only caused her mother's complexion to become paler.

"Is that so?" Su Xiaofei slightly nodded, returning her attention to Housekeeper Chen.

"So when are you three moving out?" She asked.

Chen Li furrowed her brows and looked between her mother, who had now broken into a cold sweat, and Su Xiaofei, who was smiling innocently.

"Miss, what are you talking about? Why would the three of us move out?" She blinked in confusion.

"Eh?" Su Xiaofei furrowed her brows and gave the young woman a confused look. "But if your mother can afford to buy you a limited edition designer clothes, the Su family won't be doing her a favor by keeping her here to work as a housekeeper, don't you think?"

"Miss Xiaofei… this…" Housekeeper Chen wasn't sure how to explain this to Su Xiaofei.

"What is it, then? Do you need my help to explain this to Mama and Papa?" Su Xiaofei continued. "Aunty Chen, if you are worried that they wouldn't let you go, I'll give you a hand and explain this to them."

"Mom? Are we really leaving?" Chen Li stared at her mother with wide eyes. "But why?"

She didn't want to return to their old life anymore!

"Miss, the thing is… I didn't buy Xiao Li's clothes."
