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

Chapter 190 - Queen Of My Heart (2)

General Yun had lived for a few decades now, so how can he not notice the way Lu Qingfeng looked at his granddaughter?

Lu Qingfeng looked at Su Xiaofei as if she was the only one that mattered in his world and everything zeroed on her person. He was this young and yet, he held such passion and adoration towards Su Xiaofei. If he wasn't in love with her, then General Yun had no idea what the young master of the Lu family wanted from his granddaughter.

Once the two were out of everyone's earshot, taking a rest and getting some privacy in the vast garden of the Yun Estate, Su Xiaofei flopped on the bench and released her feet from her black high heels.

"This banquet is taking too long to end." She complained to Lu Qingfeng.

"Aren't you afraid that they would criticize you for ignoring the guests of the Yun family?" Lu Qingfeng asked in return, but he also felt that this gathering was useless for someone like him.

Although he had already met the relevant people whom he had no doubt would encounter in the future, most of them, he had already met in the past. Albeit, Lu Qingfeng wouldn't mind having a refresher to remember some of them once in a while.

Su Xiaofei scoffed at his questions and played with the tips of her hair.

"Who cares about what they think of me? If I waste my time wondering how others would perceive me, I would have lost my mind."

They could hear the gales of laughter emanating from the main hall as the guests busied themselves with whatever conversation they had on their minds. Su Xiaofei couldn't care less about what they were.

She was quite enjoying the night until the Mo family arrived, effectively ruining her mood.

Lu Qingfeng felt his lips curl at the corners for a moment, her words, regardless if it was in the past or today, remained the same. He plucked a flower near him and presented it to her.

Su Xiaofei arched her brow and stared at him for a moment before accepting it. Her fingers reached to touch the white and yellow petals of the Plumeria.

"Do you know what Plumeria means?" She heard Lu Qingfeng asked.

Su Xiaofei shook her head in response.

"It means new beginnings." He explained.

"New beginnings, huh? How befitting." Su Xiaofei smiled to herself. She hadn't really paid attention to the different flowers in the garden of the Yun Estate, although she had been here several times already.

She raised her head and glanced at the bush filled with pink roses across them. Now that she had time to finally appreciate the garden that was obviously being tended seriously by the Yun household, Su Xiaofei understood where her mother's habits came from.

"What about those pink roses?" She couldn't help but be curious about the language of the flowers.

"They mean trust, happiness and confidence, if I remember it correctly." Lu Qingfeng answered. "It could also mean desire and passion."

In his previous life, the young Su Xiaofei loved flowers but had an aversion when it came to red roses. She claimed that roses were overrated and there were other lovely flowers people could adore.

"Okay." Su Xiaofei nodded, then pointed at the next flower. "And the hibiscus?"

"A white one? Hmm…" Lu Qingfeng cupped his chin as he sat next to her. "A rare and delicate beauty, a gentle one."

The young woman beside him laughed and played with the plumeria on her right hand.

"I didn't know you were interested in flowers and their language." She teased him.

Lu Qingfeng only shrugged. In his previous life, whenever Su Xiaofei had a movie launch or a product endorsement, he used to send her flowers without a note. She would have never known that all those bouquets of flowers were from him.

"So if you are going to give me a flower, what would it be?" She asked curiously.

Lu Qingfeng had already known what to give her a long time ago.

"I would give you all the lilacs I could find in the city." He said with a confident smile.

"Oh? And what could it possibly mean?"

"Because just like you, lilac is a queen." He smirked upon seeing the slight blush that spread on her face.

"Lilacs are known as the 'Queen of Shrubs'. It is the hardiest and one of the most fragrant flowers. Lilacs have come to symbolize spring and renewal too, but when it comes to love, it represents the first emotions of love. It also reminded me of? the first time we met and how much I wanted to know you more." Lu Qingfeng continued.

Su Xiaofei avoided his teasing gaze and looked away. Wasn't this his way of telling her that she was his first love?

Wait. Didn't Lu Qingfeng send her a bouquet of lilacs on her eighteenth birthday? How come she never noticed the subtle confession from it? Back then, she thought that Lu Qingfeng had sent those flowers because she once told her how beautiful the violet lilacs were and how fragrant they were.

She found herself speechless. She had no idea how to respond. She had always been the one seeking Mo Yuchen in the past and now that she was the one being on the receiving side, it made her oddly nervous and happy at the same time.

She was nervous because it was the first time she was pursued by someone, and happy because it was Lu Qingfeng. Lu Qingfeng was someone she could trust. He won't say anything that he didn't mean.

"Then I look forward to receiving more lilacs from you." She said after a moment of silence between them, catching Lu Qingfeng off guard.

It took a moment for him to recover before he lifted one hand to brush the stray locks away from her face.

Su Xiaofei went still, aware of the closeness between them, only to stiffen further when his lips gently covered hers.
