Rebirth Of The Villainess: Young Master Lu's Wicked Wife
Chapter 135 - Losing Myself (1)
Chapter 135 - Losing Myself (1)
Others might think that what Su Xiaofei just did to Chen Li was quite heartless, but Lu Qingfeng was satisfied and was proud of her scheming. Not only was she able to get even with Chen Li for marring her reputation in their past lives and implying that Ye Mingyu instigated Chen Li's stealing habits, but she also managed to gain a connection with Si Yixian earlier than expected.
However, although she succeeded in sending Chen Li to jail while implicating Ye Mingyu, Lu Qingfeng noticed that her eyes held a sorrowful glint as they left the police station with her mother and Uncle Fang.
Lu Qingfeng accompanied them home. However, as soon as they arrived at the Yun Mansion, Su Xiaofei hurriedly went upstairs and confined herself inside her room, leaving her mother and Fang Yi to worry about her.
"Feifei must be upset with what happened." Yun Qingrong dropped her purse on the table and flopped down on the couch with a deep sigh.
"I can't believe Xiao Li would try to frame Feifei for whatever she has done. What do they take us for? I allowed them to stay here with us because my husband insisted that they needed our help, but look at what they did to my Feifei." She grumbled as she rubbed her temple.
"I initially suspected that Feifei and Chen Li didn't get along, but I didn't expect Chen Li would do something as horrible as this." Uncle Fang agreed with her. Although there weren't many similarities between Su Xiaofei and Chen Li, he found it weird that the two girls weren't close to each other, considering they were related and were of similar age.
"Aunty Qing, can I go and check on Feifei?" Lu Qingfeng asked, knowing that he cannot just barge into Su Xiaofei's room like he used to do when they were younger.
"Please." Yun Qingrong easily gave him her permission. "Feifei might need someone to talk to right now."
She understood that at a time like this, Feifei would only listen to Lu Qingfeng's logical reasoning. Their deep bond with each other allowed the young man to understand Su Xiaofei more than anyone else they knew.
Lu Qingfeng excused himself and headed upstairs to see Su Xiaofei. He wasn't sure what he was expecting to see as he knocked on her door.
"Feifei?" He called out, but it took some time for the young woman to respond.
"You can enter." He heard her voice faintly from the other side of the door. She sounded calm, so Lu Qingfeng released a sigh he didn't know he was holding.
Lu Qingfeng turned the doorknob and entered at once, finding her leaning against the rail on the balcony of her room, the afternoon the sun giving her a sun kissed look. There was a forlorn look on her face which he had not seen on her for a long time.
He sauntered towards her and joined her on the balcony. Su Xiaofei turned her head away, but it was impossible for Lu Qingfeng not to know that she was still bothered by what happened earlier.
"Are you upset? Or are you not satisfied with today's results?" He asked bluntly once he took a seat on one of the chairs set up on the balcony, crossing his legs, his eyes never leaving her.
He saw Su Xiaofei gave him a side glance and hummed, which meant she wasn't sure how to answer Lu Qingfeng's question. He continued watching as she kept her back on him, her shoulders shaking as she held her midsection.
Lu Qingfeng raised a brow as she burst into a round of laughter. He didn't find anything funny at the moment. However, as Su Xiaofei turned to face him, his eyes slightly widened as he saw that she was crying at the same time.
"Feifei…" He really hated to see her crying. It was like the remaining part of his wicked heart was being squeezed painfully, seeing her like this.
"Xiao Feng, do you think you still like this Da Jie after witnessing what she has done? Do you think that she's a bad person like the rest?" She asked with teary eyes.
Lu Qingfeng's jaws hardened. It wasn't like she had chosen to be a villainess in the first place. If other people hadn't forced her to play this role to make Ye Mingyu look better in everyone's eyes in her past life, she would still be the innocent and mischievous, though a little arrogant, Feifei he once knew.
They took advantage of her weaknesses and cornered her until she had no other choice but to fight back. Didn't they know that even a rabbit will bite when cornered?
"No. Why? Are you regretting it now?" Lu Qingfeng questioned her. He gave her a good look, gauging her reaction.
If Su Xiaofei didn't do what she did, she would be the one who would be implicated by Chen Li's wrongdoings. Knowing what could happen to her if she forgave Chen Li, it would be foolish on Su Xiaofei's part to not do anything to protect herself.
Su Xiaofei tried to calm down and wipe her tears dry. She couldn't explain what she was truly feeling at the moment. It was hard to explain the complex emotions that washed through her upon seeing Housekeeper Chen beg on her knees for them to let her daughter off.
"No. I didn't regret it." She answered Lu Qingfeng's question. There's no way she would regret whatever she did today.
It would never be enough for her. What Chen Li and her mother just suffered today wasn't comparable to the shame and helplessness she and Yun Qingrong felt in her past life.
If Chen Li and her mother thought that this was the worst thing that was waiting for them, they were gravely mistaken.. There was more to come, and she would make sure to give Ye Mingyu a little dose of her own medicine, as she was about to experience a feud within her own family.
