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

Chapter 15 - Taking The First Step (1)

Su Xiaofei returned home with her mother and Aunty Liu the next day and she rushed upstairs, leaving both elder women on their own, watching her retreating back. New Year's day was approaching and this was why Su Xiaofei was given a few days off from school to celebrate with her family, which she never did in her past life.

The entire Su Residence began to bustle as they started the preparation on Yun Qingrong's orders. None of them bothered to spare Su Xiaofei a glance since her atrocious attitude had made everyone cautious of getting on her bad side.

However, Su Xiaofei knew that some of them had ill intent towards her and her mother and was colluding with Su Haoran to get her mother's wealth.

If not for their involvement, how could other people easily mudsling her name and find out private information and events that could only be known to people who were living at the Su Residence?

Su Xiaofei was now well aware of this, so she needed to make their home safe before she could move on to deal with larger problems such as Mo Yuchen and Ye Mingyu who would surely show up along with her mother, Ye Xing to beg for the Su family's assistance.

Yun Qingrong passed the bags she was holding to Aunty Liu and followed her daughter with a curious gaze. Her daughter oddly looked different since yesterday and she wasn't sure what caused this sudden change in her Feifei.

Su Xiaofei looked the same, but looked different at the same time. Yun Qingrong could even point out the obvious changes. Her Feifei's complexion looked better than yesterday, that's for sure. The golden light coming from outside earlier made Yun Qingrong stop in her tracks and watch her daughter's hair and face glint with a smile on her face.

Compared to other young women of Su Xiaofei's age, she looked delicate and proper. She took pride for being the only heiress of the Su family and wasn't ashamed to voice out her thoughts.

However, Yun Qingrong also noticed that her daughter seemed quieter than usual, almost as if her Feifei had turned into someone completely unfamiliar.

Yun Qingrong lowered her eyes and recalled how her Feifei acted differently yesterday. At her daughter's sudden outburst, Yun Qingrong was finally certain that something was wrong with her daughter, but she couldn't voice her worries towards Su Xiaofei.

"Why do I feel as if there's something wrong with Feifei? Her sudden change of attitude towards Young Master Mo was surprising." She told Aunty Liu.

"I feel the same, Madam." The older woman replied. "But I suppose, Miss Feifei has finally got over her infatuation with Mo Yuchen now, which is a good thing. I don't want to sound impolite, Madam, but I don't like how Young Master Mo treats our Miss Feifei. It's only natural for Young Miss to get tired of being treated like that."

"I hope you are right, Aunty Liu."

Of course, Aunty Liu wasn't the only one who noticed it. Yun Qingrong herself could see the way Mo Yuchen treated her daughter, with such coldness and indifference, it's easy to say that his attitude towards Su Xiaofei was borderline hatred.

Although she disagreed with the betrothal of her daughter to Mo Yuchen in order to strengthen the ties of the Su and the Mo family, it was hard for her to dissuade Su Haoran not to marry off their daughter.

Yun Qingrong knew that she and her daughter weren't that close, considering how busy she was at work. It also didn't help that Su Haoran was keeping his distance from their daughter. He barely spared her a glance, let alone talked to her.

Yesterday, as she observed her daughter's mannerisms and attitude, she felt that Su Xiaofei seemed like a whole new person. Yun Qingrong had some suspicion on her heart, especially when Feifei asked her to help her dissolve her engagement with Mo Yuchen.

She briefly wondered if it was possible for someone's personality to change so drastically after being unconscious for three days. Did something else happen before she passed out on the night of Xi Qian's birthday?

Yun Qingrong's heart ached. In her heart, she knew that she was lacking as a mother to her daughter, which led to Su Xiaofei trying hard to get the attention she wanted from other people, such as Mo Yuchen.

If that was the case, then she must really have been a bad mother who ignored her child's needs. Although she had provided every material thing she could for Su Xiaofei, Yun Qingrong understood that a mother's company and love were vital for a child. However, it was hard for her to balance her time between work and family, as she knew she couldn't entrust the company she started with blood, sweat and tears to her husband.

They may be husband and wife, but Yun Qingrong had never allowed her husband to manage their money. He would only receive his monthly allowances and salary from her company. Unlike their daughter who wasn't lacking in terms of money.

Yun Qingrong didn't care what people thought of her daughter, provided that she wasn't doing anything illegal. If she wanted to spend lavishly on clothes, makeup and food, so be it, as long as her Feifei was happy and satisfied.

As for her daughter's request to dissolve her engagement with Mo Yuchen, how could she deny her? Since Feifei decided not to be with Mo Yunchen, Yun Qingrong could only yield her daughter's request.

"Should we inform the Master that you and Young Miss are at home?"

Yun Qingrong shook her head. "There's no need."

She didn't want to admit it, but she and her husband weren't on speaking terms at the moment because of the recent problem Su Haoran had caused at their company, leaving her to clean up the mess.

Also, she had informed Su Haoran the day before to at least visit their daughter, but until Su Xiaofei's last day at the hospital, his shadow couldn't be seen anywhere.
