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

Chapter 145 - Odette And Odile (1)

Su Xiaofei stood in front of a full-length mirror. This was already the eighth party dress she had tried on. Because she had gotten used to dressing herself up in her past life as an actress, she thought that it wouldn't be a problem for her to choose the right dress. How wrong she was.

She hadn't expected that she would gain a lot of weight over this short span of time. This white and pink dress was something she had bought for herself a week before Xi Qian's birthday, and before she was reborned, but now, it was unexpectedly tight.

She lowered her gaze and looked at her midsection. Ever since she was reborned, she had started eating more than usual and had never starved herself. Aunty Liu and Lu Qingfeng would make sure that she ate various delicious foods every day, not realizing that she had eaten until she had gained two pounds in just one month.

Now, her original sharp chin was a little rounded, but at least it didn't make her face rounder, otherwise, she'd look like a steamed bun. However, Su Xiaofei honestly thought that she looked healthier compared to the thin and sharp face she used to have in her previous life.

It seemed like it was okay for her to retain this weight, but not to add more. Forget it. Since she had decided to eat more, she should have expected this to happen. She also wasn't willing to give up her new love for food anyway.

Su Xiaofei pulled out another formal dress from her wardrobe, and it was a purple dress that reached her upper knee with a black halter-neck. She groaned as she changed into yet another piece. She kinda envied Lu Qingfeng right now. Being a male seemed more convenient. He just needed to wear a suit and didn't need to worry about what to wear.

An hour later, she went down the stairs and found Lu Qingfeng already dressed, waiting for her with her mother in the living area. Lu Qingfeng casted his eyes upwards to the descending, his eyes widening in surprise, jaws slacking, seeing her looking more beautiful than usual. It wasn't like he hadn't seen her like this in their previous life, but those were only through magazines and television.

She was breathtaking and thankfully, he would be the one who would accompany her for the night. If it was another man, Lu Qingfeng was sure he would be drowning in vinegar, wanting to be on Su Xiaofei's side.

"Feifei, that looks so good on you." Yun Qingrong commented upon seeing her daughter's appearance. She rarely saw her daughter dressing up for a formal event and now that she was starting to act more mature, the old woman felt that it wouldn't take long before her baby would leave the nest.

"Thanks, Mama. But I'll give the credit to you. You bought such a wonderful dress, appropriate for tonight's event."

Well, most of her clothes were bought by Yun Qingrong anyway. This was why Su Xiaofei never bothered to go shopping for a new dress. She was still irked about the one hundred million she had yet to start earning.

Su Xiaofei's black and purple dress hugged her body perfectly, the skirt billowing slightly. The color of her dress paired with her light makeup complimented her pale skin as her dark hair cascaded down her back, framing her face in large loose waves that were curled at the tips.

Her delicate feet touched the floor, the high heels of her shoes making a clicking sound as she walked towards her escort, with a slight blush on her face.

"How do I look?" Su Xiaofei asked nervously, her eyes meeting his enthralled gaze.

If she could be perfectly honest, she was a little shy in front of Lu Qingfeng. Ever since she became aware of his feelings towards her, she couldn't help but notice him more and more each day.

Lu Qingfeng blinked a few times before he managed to pull himself together. His jaws hardened as he shook his head to bring himself back to his senses.

"You are breathtakingly beautiful tonight." He didn't dare to lie as he took one of her hands in his, raising it to his lips to place a gentle kiss on her knuckles. An act that made Su Xiaofei blush even more than she already had.

"T-thank you." Su Xiaofei mumbled, feeling like a teenager who was complemented by her crush.

'Damn it, Su Xiaofei. You're already a grown woman. Stop acting like a silly school girl.' She berated herself inwardly.

"Shall we go then?" Lu Qingfeng asked, as he walked around to stand beside her, offering his right arm in the process.

"Wait!" Yun Qingrong exclaimed, stopping the two from leaving. She pulled out her phone and opened the camera app, intending to snap some pictures of them.

"Let me take some of your pictures. It's been a while since you two dressed up like this."

Which was true. With her busy schedule at work, Yun Qingrong couldn't remember the last time she saw her daughter and Xiao Feng dressed like this.

Su Xiaofei and Lu Qingfeng posed and allowed the older woman to take several shots before Yun Qingrong let them leave.

Lu Qingfeng gave Su Xiaofei a questioning look, but Su Xiaofei only shrugged. As long as her mother was satisfied and happy, then it didn't matter what she requested from her. Yun Qingrong was more emotional these days, but she used to be hard to read for Su Xiaofei in her past life.

After getting ready and bidding goodbye to Yun Qingrong and Aunty Liu, the two set out. Tonight, the founding ball of Qiying City Academy will be held at one of the five-star hotels in the city.. Most of the students would obviously attend, as this was one of the rare times they could show off their family's wealth and influence to the other attendees of the ball.
