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

Chapter 65 - Ye Mingyu's Arrival (1)

Su Xiaofei didn't wait for her friends and dug in on her lunch, while Lu Qingfeng could only shake his head and follow her lead.

Meanwhile, Xi Qian felt conflicted if she should eat the lunch Aunty Liu made for her. While it's true that she always spent her lunchtime with these two, this was the first time that they were eating a home cooked meal, instead of buying something at the cafeteria.

As she glanced at Su Xiaofei and Lu Qingfeng's lunchboxes, she noticed that the old woman really exerted some effort to give them good food. Not only were they visually appetizing, but it was more balanced and nutritious compared to what they would get from the cafeteria.

"Qian, what's wrong?" Su Xiaofei asked when she noticed that her best friend wasn't eating along with them. "Is the food not to your liking? Try the pork ribs, it's really delicious."

"But…" Xi Qian still hesitated. She didn't want to cause trouble to anyone, especially to Su Xiaofei, but she also understood why Feifei was kind to her. If their position had been reversed, Xi Qian knew that she would have done the same and would try to lessen the burden her best friend had.

Alas… it was truly hard to swallow one's pride and accept help, especially for someone like Xi Qian.

"Aunty Liu specifically made this meal with you in her mind. She said that she was worried about you not having enough nourishment. Just the other day, she mentioned that she'd seen you putting a band-aid on your knuckles. If you are feeling guilty, you don't need to, but you shouldn't waste Aunty Liu's efforts."

Su Xiaofei stopped eating midway to stare at Lu Qingfeng blankly.

"What?" Lu Qingfeng asked when he noticed her staring at him. "Fell in love with my handsome face? It's never too late to confess now."

"Wow, Xiao Feng. This is the first time I heard you speak more than ten words at the same time." She said with a laugh, earning a glare from the young man. Her attention then shifted to her best friend, who was still staring at her unopened lunchbox.

"It's okay, Qian. Look at Xiao Feng. He's been staying at our home and eating our food even though he has a home to return to and can afford to make his own food." Su Xiaofei shook her head. "So don't worry and eat the lunch that Auntie Liu made for us. She'll be happy if she knows that you've finished your food."

"You could have just told me if you don't like me staying in your house. Do you really have to compare me to Xi Qian?" Lu Qingfeng complained to her.

"What? It's been days, but you have yet to return home. Might as well move into our house if you aren't planning to leave." Su Xiaofei eyed him, before placing a piece of savory meat on her mouth.

Xi Qian sighed and rubbed her temples. These two really forget that there's people around them when they start to argue.

"Fine. If you put it that way, how can I leave this meal to waste?" Xi Qian conceded and decided to eat her share. At least she didn't have to worry about her expenses for lunch and could spend it on her dinner later instead. With the meager salary she was receiving every month, she needed to control her spendings, which meant cost cutting wherever she could - mostly her meals.

Su Xiaofei smiled to herself and continued eating. She would enjoy these peaceful days along with Lu Qingfeng and Xi Qian because in three days, Ye Mingyu would appear again and would try her best to ruin her life.

Thinking about it, she would let fate take its course and lead Ye Mingyu to befriend Feng Xue'er. Once the two had a deeper understanding, she would set up an encounter between Ye Mingyu and Cai Lin.

Cai Lin was a popular basketball varsity player in their academy and in Su Xiaofei's past life, Cai Lin was one of Ye Mingyu's white knights, always ready to come to her aid whenever Cinderella was being terrorized by her evil stepsister. He was one of the reasons why Su Xiaofei was rejected on several auditions and brand endorsement considerations, because he was the one pulling the strings in favor of Ye Mingyu.

Unbeknownst to Feng Xue'er, her fiancé's admiration towards Ye Mingyu was borderline obsession, that if Su Xiaofei hadn't witnessed herself how this man confessed his undying love towards Ye Mingyu a week before his wedding with Feng Xue'er, Su Xiaofei wouldn't be aware of it.

Ye Mingyu rejected him, though, saying that they shouldn't let Feng Xue'er know of what they talked about that day, as it would only upset her. Seeing how loyal and considerate Ye Mingyu was towards her best friend, Cai Lin fell even harder, despite already being head over heels for her.

'Right. I should do that. I should let Ye Mingyu and Feng Xue'er deepen their friendship before destroying it. The pain of betrayal coming from the person closest to you hurts the most after all.' Su Xiaofei thought.

Su Xiaofei would never forget what those pair of friends had done to her in her past life, constantly making a fool out of her, ruining her reputation every chance that they got.

With Feng Xue'er's flourishing career as a designer, it was very easy for her to tarnish Su Xiaofei's name in front of her highly-valued customers while praising Ye Mingyu's beauty and benevolence to the heavens.

'I wonder if their cheap friendship can endure the strong gust of betrayal once it happens.' Su Xiaofei smiled to herself, pleased that she would have a chance to force the two women to go against each other.

Compared to those two women, Su Xiaofei was thankful that Xi Qian was good to her despite her unpleasant personality.. Xi Qian might not be fully aware of how scheming she could be, unlike Lu Qingfeng, but it didn't matter.
