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

Though Xiao Rufeng left after lunch, Yun Qingrong and Bai Qingyue stayed with Su Xiaofei. As the days passed by, Su Xiaofei's bump continued to grow and as much as Lu Qingfeng wanted to stay with her throughout the day, it was impossible for him to ignore the work that continued to pile up on his desk.

"Feifei, why don't you take a rest now? Since we've already discussed the plans for Miss Bai and Miss Xiao, you can leave the rest to me." Yun Qingrong suggested. She had decided to move to Shenjing the other week to be closer to her pregnant daughter.

"I agree with your mother." Bai Qingyue chimed in. "You should focus on your pregnancy now and shouldn't stress too much on work. It'll affect the health of your babies if you keep stressing yourself like this."

Su Xiaofei stared at her blankly, surprised that Bai Qingyue was voicing such concern towards her. She would have never thought that her biological mother had this side in her. She had always thought that this actress cared for no one but herself.

"What?" Bai Qingyue asked her.

"Nothing. Just lost in thought." Su Xiaofei replied, before slowly heading to the sitting room to take a rest. It had only been half of the day, but she was already feeling tired and sleepy.

"I'll get going then." The actress said. "Be careful and take as much rest as you need."

Bai Qingyue excused herself even before her daughter could respond to her. Yun Qingrong thanked her and sent her off while Su Xiaofei decided to take a short afternoon nap.

When Lu Qingfeng returned home early that afternoon, he found his wife dozing in the sitting room, with an open book about pregnancy laying on the ground beside her. Seeing her grow rounder with his children made him feel ecstatic and afraid at the same time. While Han Zijun and Shi Mingli were able to delay the spread of the poison in her body, the antidote was still in the process of development.

Chen Hao had suddenly gone into hiding and Ye Mingyu had been taken under Han Yize's wings. Lu Qingfeng and his wife obviously knew that man from their previous lives, but none of them had expected that Han Yize was involved with the Cold Poison.

Han Yize was a distant relative of Han Zijun. Although he wasn't proficient in traditional medicine, the man had ventured into the pharmaceutical business, which was more profitable than sticking to the Han family's business that had been established a long time ago.

However, in terms of wealth and influence, Han Yize was still falling behind the Han family, so he had to rely on underhanded methods to get what he wanted.

Lu Qingfeng gently picked up his sleeping wife and brought her back to their bedroom, placing her gently on their bed, making sure that he wouldn't disturb her sleep. Now that she was pregnant, she was heavier than usual.

He gently brushed his fingers on her hair and placed a gentle kiss on her forehead. She was more precious now, more than ever. He needed to find the antidote soon, before the poison started to affect her body and their children.

It was for this same reason that he requested to meet Yun Xiang in private. The next day, Yun Xiang arrived at his office at Lu Corporation in secret.

"Is there a reason why your people suddenly dragged me here?" Yun Xiang frowned as he took a seat across Lu Qingfeng. He was taken that morning from his home by Lu Qingfeng's people and he couldn't even do anything about it.

"I need your assistance." The younger man said.

"You need assistance but you've taken me against my will?" Yun Xiang bit out.

Lu Qingfeng sighed and rubbed his temple.

"I suppose an apology is needed. Please accept my sincere apology for my subordinates' actions. I merely told them to invite you here."

Yun Xiang stared at Lu Qingfeng for a moment, trying to see if he was sincere with his apology, but he only saw the impassive mask the young man always wore. Seeing Lu Qingfeng like this, it was hard for him to know what he was even thinking.

"What kind of help do you need?" He asked after a long silence between them.

"I need to find Chen Hao as soon as possible. My people are quite occupied right now and I would rather not treat them like hunting hounds just to find that vermin."

Yun Xiang tsked in annoyance. Lu Qingfeng was still the same arrogant young man he met in the past. He didn't understand why Lu Qingfeng held such animosity towards him. He was sure that he hadn't done anything to offend Lu Qingfeng.

"You confessed to Feifei." Lu Qingfeng suddenly blurted out.

Yun Xiang went still, his eyes widening in surprise. So that's why Lu Qingfeng hated him. He lowered his gaze, but didn't deny the younger man's claim.

"What about it? Su Xiaofei already chose to be with you and nothing I say would be able to change her mind." He replied.

'Especially now that she's pregnant with your child.' He thought, not daring to voice out his thoughts to Lu Qingfeng.

"Feifei is poisoned by Ye Mingyu and Chen Hao. I need to find Chen Hao to see if the antidote is in his possession." Lu Qingfeng said coldy. "Nine will give you all the details of his secret properties and evidence of his crimes."

Yun Xiang was taken aback by Lu Qingfeng's words. He didn't expect that his pregnant cousin was facing such a dangerous predicament.

"How could you allow them to hurt Feifei?!" He blurted out with rage.

He had willingly given up his stupid ideas on Su Xiaofei because he thought that this tyrant was capable enough to take good care of her, but it seemed that he was gravely mistaken.

"They used Aunty Qing to poison Feifei. Do you think she would be able to get that poison under normal circumstances?" Lu Qingfeng retorted, his eyes showing rage and guilt that Yun Xiang had never seen in him before.

He looked like a devil, promising bloody murder to those who dared to touch his wife.

"And what will you give me in return?" Yun Xiang asked. This time he met Lu Qingfeng's eyes, refusing to back down. There was no way Lu Qingfeng would ask such a favor without taking in other options at his disposal.

"What is it that you desire?" Lu Qingfeng asked in return.

Yun Xiang fisted his hands on his side. His mind went blank at that moment. He didn't know how to answer Lu Qingfeng at all.

"Give me time. I need to figure it out." He admitted.

Initially, he only cared about his work, but his life suddenly turned upside down when he met Su Xiaofei. His thoughts were plagued with her until he couldn't think of anything but her. However, how could he dare to say such things to Lu Qingfeng without facing any consequences? Su Xiaofei might be oblivious to her husband's devious ways, but that didn't mean Yun Xiang was also the same.

"Fine. As long as it's within my capability, I will give it to you." Lu Qingfeng replied. His cold, dark eyes made it clear that Su Xiaofei was not an option.

Yun Xiang hardened his jaws. Lu Qingfeng didn't need to remind him. He hadn't forgotten the promise he made to Su Xiaofei anyway and he wasn't planning to break it at all. He would rather see her with another man than have her hate him.

"Are you sure that they are the ones responsible for Feifei's condition and not your family?" He narrowed his eyes on Lu Qingfeng. Considering how his relatives dared to threaten Lu Qingfeng's life, he wouldn't be surprised if they dared to seek revenge on his wife.

"Hmm. Chen Hao and Ye Mingyu had already made demands in exchange for the antidote. At the moment, Han Zijun is able to repel the poison from Feifei's body little by little. However, having the antidote would not only save her life, but would also keep the twins away from danger."

Yun Xiang said nothing and considered his options and why Lu Qingfeng had sought him instead of dirtying his own hands.

"You don't want to kill Chen Hao yourself?" He questioned, but seeing how Lu Qingfeng went stiff in his seat and his eyes blazing with killing intent - he had a clear answer.

"As much as I want to, Feifei doesn't want me to pile up more sins than what I've already committed. I want to see Chen Hao and Ye Mingyu's end, but a quick death will be too easy for them. I'd rather them live the rest of their lives in despair and experience hell on earth. I do not care if it is behind bars or a mental facility. They will pay for what they've done to my wife."
