All Novel Full Chapter 173 - The Fault Is Mine (2)
Was Su Xiaofei talking about the things he had done in his previous life? Lu Qingfeng wondered. Was she aware of the horrible things he committed under her name after her death?
Su Xiaofei was also reborn like him, so it was normal for her to remember some of her memories from her previous life, but how much could she remember, Lu Qingfeng wasn't certain. However, if she was aware of the things he had committed after her death, wouldn't that mean there was a possibility that she would blame herself?
Lu Qingfeng studied her intently for a moment. Knowing Su Xiaofei's personality, she might actually blame herself for his actions.
He frowned the moment he realized this. Su Xiaofei should know by now that his actions were his and his alone. She shouldn't bear the responsibility of it and blame herself.
"Feifei, you have to understand, whether it was in the past or in the future, the one responsible for my actions is me and not you. It's my choice. My decision to do it. You don't have to punish yourself because of it. The fault is always mine and not yours."
Su Xiaofei stilled in her seat and stared wide-eyed at him. How… How did he know? How did Lu Qingfeng know that she was feeling guilty that he had become a tyrant in her past life because of her? Was she really that obvious?
"Why are you telling me this?" She asked with an awkward smile.
"It's precisely because I know you would blame yourself for it. So I'm telling you now, the things I would do in the future in regard to you is my own choice. So don't stress yourself on things I might do in the future."
Su Xiaofei didn't know why, but she felt like the burden on her shoulders had been lifted when she heard his words. Since her rebirth, the thought of Lu Qingfeng leading a lonely life was something that bothered her greatly.
This young man who loved her until his very last breath, Su Xiaofei, wasn't willing to see him suffer the same fate he did in her previous life. She didn't think Lu Qingfeng deserved to lead a lonely life at all.
Well, if she accepted his feelings, would he be happy with her? Su Xiaofei wasn't sure about that. The only one who could tell if he was satisfied with his life would be Lu Qingfeng himself.
"What are you thinking? Your cheeks are blushing?" She heard Lu Qingfeng's teasing voice.
Su Xiaofei immediately tried to suppress the blush on her face.
"Whose blushing?! Open your eyes and see clearly! Stop spouting nonsense, Xiao Feng!" She scoffed.
Lu Qingfeng cackled in amusement. Her reaction seemed to amuse him. For some reason, he found her displeasure amusing. He had never thought that Su Xiaofei would be this cute when she was shy.
"So how's the progress of your 100 million mission?" He asked as he finally took pity on her.
"Bad. I only have 2 million with me and that's my personal money." Su Xiaofei pouted. "Aside from trying my luck on the lottery, I don't know how to earn money."
"Didn't Aunty Qing say that she will allow you to work at Bluemedia soon?"
Su Xiaofei stood up and joined him. She took a seat across him and cupped her chin with both hands, while her arms were propped up on the table.
"Yeah, but I'm only going to observe! That's different from a part-timer. Mama isn't willing for me to take up a part-time job at the company yet, since she wants me to focus on my studies instead. Xiao Feng, do I really need to wait for a miracle for me to raise my 100 million?"
Lu Qingfeng quirked his eyebrow questioningly.
"You know the easiest way to get your 100 million." He said with a devilish smile.
She shot him a glare, but she bit her lower lip to stifle a grin.
"Aiya, Xiao Feng. Why are you so eager to become my Money Boss? You really want me to hug your golden thigh?"
"Who says that you can only hug my thigh? Feel free to touch me anywhere. I won't mind at all." He gave her a flirtatious wink, something that made Su Xiaofei lose her composure, her chin fell from her hands and she almost hit her face on the table, if not for Lu Qingfeng leaning forward, pushing her shoulder to steady her.
"Lu Qingfeng! How could you say that?! If people heard what you are saying to me, they might misunderstand that I'm harassing a minor!"
Now, Su Xiaofei was really itching to hit Lu Qingfeng's head for even trying to tease her like this. Thank goodness no one was around or she would really have to find a place to hide herself from embarrassment.
"What? Who said you'll do it now, ah? Of course you'll need to wait until I'm old enough. Silly Feifei." Lu Qingfeng said in defense and flicked her forehead as usual.
"Oww!" Su Xiaofei hissed in pain and touched her forehead.
Her skin was tender and sensitive. Normally, even if someone used a little strength to pinch her, her skin would be red for some time. This was why she was always annoyed when Lu Qingfeng flicked her forehead, because she would need to apply a cool ointment to lessen the redness on her skin.
"If you aren't going to help me raise my 100 million, stop annoying me, Xiao Feng." She grumbled, feeling wronged by him.
"Well, raising 100 million is indeed hard. Not many businessmen could earn that money in a short span of time, unless they are doing something illegal," Lu Qingfeng commented. "Have you ever considered other ways to defeat Mo Yuchen though? Like stopping him from succeeding the company?"
Su Xiaofei frowned. How was she supposed to do that?
Until something crossed her mind.. She totally forgot about the Mo family.
