Rebirth of the Villainess: Young Master Lu’s Wicked Wife

Su Xiaofei couldn't help but be reminded of how foolish she had been in her past life. If she had known that Xiao Feng could love her more than anyone else could, she probably wouldn't feel the need to chase after Mo Yuchen and compete with Ye Mingyu to get his attention.

Before, she always doubted her worth whenever she was with Mo Yuchen, but with Lu Qingfeng, she could be her true self without worrying about what he would think of her. If she was in Lu Qingfeng's shoes, Su Xiaofei thought that she wouldn't like herself, given how arrogant and overbearing she could be.

She leaned her head on Lu Qingfeng's arm and sighed. Lu Qingfeng didn't need to uphold the promise they made when they were younger, but upon witnessing herself how he remained alone for the rest of his life after she died, Su Xiaofei knew that there would be no other man like him.

"In this world, there couldn't be any other man that could love me like you do." She told him.

Lu Qingfeng stiffened and looked down on her, watching her with curiosity. He blinked before a feeling of overwhelming warmth spreading through his entirety. If this was how Su Xiaofei viewed him now, it gave him all the more reason to do his best to meet her expectations.

"Of course. Do you think you could find another me in this world? That won't be possible." He bragged.

It wasn't just Su Xiaofei who dreaded this day. Even though he wasn't willing to part with her, there were just things that needed to be done in preparation for their future. If he was worried about leaving her on her own before, right now, Lu Qingfeng was certain that she would be able to take care of herself and wouldn't fall for Mo Yuchen's scheme again.

"You won't forget to call me?" She silently asked as they continued to stare at the tree in front of them.

"I'll call you every morning and night if you wish."

"If there's a chance that you met another girl that you like, don't forget to tell me, okay?"

Lu Qingfeng's expression soured at that. Why did she keep on thinking that he would forget about her? Was this a lingering effect of what Mo Yuchen did to her in their past lives?

"There won't be another woman, Feifei. It's enough that I have you by my side." He said, and buried his nose in her thick locks, as if trying to ingrain her scent in his mind. After living three lifetimes, forgetting about her was impossible.

There were so many times that he almost lost his mind after she died in their previous lives. The regret he felt upon learning that she died was immeasurable, that no amount of success was enough to free him from his misery.

If this was the reason he was given a chance to relive his life again, Lu Qingfeng wanted to make it right this time. Even if Su Xiaofei wasn't reborn like him, he would surely find a way to change her mind and allow her to see the real Mo Yuchen.

"I wouldn't be here to help you with your schemes, so you better look after yourself." He reminded her. His words were so gentle, as if he was relaying reminders to a child.

"Okay."

"If you need someone to talk to, and if you feel lonely, don't hesitate to call me. I might not be able to return to your side so soon, but you can always talk to me whenever you need to."

"Hmm. Then I will be sure to give you a call whenever I have difficulties at school." Su Xiaofei could only hum, thinking that Lu Qingfeng's way of saying goodbye was predictable. He was constantly worrying about her, even if he didn't admit it.

Lu Qingfeng scoffed at her answer.

"Ah, just as I thought! I'm only needed as your free private tutor." He grumbled, feigning disappointment with her answer.

"Hey! It's your fault for being smarter than me. If I have a brain like yours, do you think I would waste time burning my brows at night studying nonstop? My stupid brain can't keep up."

"You aren't stupid, Feifei. You just don't feel any interest in the topic, hence, you feel conflicted whether you should study the lesson or not." Lu Qingfeng explained. Even in their past lives, Su Xiaofei wasn't a studious type and she always preferred to be outside, mingling with other people.

"Right. Right. It's good that you know that I'm not really that stupid. I would be really disappointed with you, though, if you allow me to become one."

"I won't let you regret choosing me, Feifei." Lu Qingfeng parted from her and took her hand in his. "So would you consider being with me?"

Su Xiaofei was aware of the blush spreading all over her face, but she couldn't suppress it. It only made her more aware of how her heart thumped wildly against her chest as Lu Qingfeng held her.

"When you come back, I will surely give you a definite answer. What I know now is I also want to be with you, but only when I know I'm ready." Su Xiaofei didn't want to lie to him. If Lu Qingfeng could express such deep profound emotion at such a young age, she could also teach herself to let go of her grievances from her past life, which was preventing her from being truly happy in this lifetime.

Lu Qingfeng stared at her for a long time, as if he was trying to see if she was telling him the truth. However, the truth was, he wanted to kiss her right here and now, but he was stopping himself from doing so.

"If… if you are worried that I would entertain another man while you are away, then you don't need to worry.. If they can't be as good as you, then they won't be able to catch my eye."
