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

Lu Qingfeng stared at the view, letting the warm sea air ruffle his thick black hair. He had requested this rare trip with his wife under short notice and he was glad that Su Xiaofei managed to rearrange her schedule to make time. In their previous life, the last thing Su Xiaofei told him was that she wished to see the sunset on the beach once again, but he'd never got the chance to fulfill that wish.

He was supposed to be here with Yan Xiuchen to see the resorts themselves, so he took the opportunity to allow his wife and Xi Qian to take a break from their busy schedules. With Yun Qingrong's doctors' approval, his mother-in-law had also decided to come with them today.

It had been a long time since Lu Qingfeng last spent a vacation with them, as he was only ten years old during the last one they had. He also didn't doubt that Su Xiaofei would like the idea of having one as she'd been too focused on her work and making sure to beat Mo Yuchen's Golden Star in every possible way.

Right now, Su Xiaofei and Xi Qian must be checking out the beach while he awaited Yan Xiuchen and the Li siblings' arrival. They should arrive any minute now. Meanwhile, Yun Qingrong chose to remain in her suite, claiming that the beautiful scenery from her terrace was enough for her to enjoy.

Lu Qingfeng checked his phone to make sure there weren't any missed calls from his wife, and there were really none. Well, it wasn't like Su Xiaofei would have time to worry about anything for the meantime as he had practically taken their family away from the busy city.

A lithe, busty woman had slipped him a napkin earlier, with her phone number scribbled on it, which he'd tossed in the trashbin as soon as he passed one. He didn't want Su Xiaofei to think that he was seeing another woman as soon as she turned her back on him.

The island resort was surprisingly bigger than what he expected. It had pristine beaches. The water sparkled under the sunlight as it overlapped the sand. With the amount he spent purchasing the place, Lu Qingfeng was confident that he was able to make it a lucrative business in no time.

Meanwhile, Su Xiaofei rested a hand on her hips. The afternoon air here was a bit warmer. It was still relatively cool and refreshing in her opinion, compared to Qiying City that had been plagued with sharp, cold winds. The weather was starting to get colder in the north and she was worried that it would affect her mother's recovery from her recent surgeries.

When her husband asked her to join him on this short trip, she hesitated, but once she found out where they were going to the east, she couldn't help but ask him to allow her mother and Xi Qian to join.

"My gosh, Feifei. How long has it been since we visited the beach together?" Xi Qian asked her, while collecting beautiful seashells along their way. "Thankfully, my employer is kind enough to give me the whole weekend to myself!"

Su Xiaofei chuckled and looked at the far horizon. It was far from the high-rise buildings she always saw whenever she went to work.

"We are too busy making money and to make ends meet that we didn't have time to enjoy what life could give us." She commented, pleased that somehow she was able to see a glint of happiness in Xi Qian's eyes that she hadn't seen for the past two years.

If only she could go to that Wei Zhijuan and give him a good beating for making her Qian cry, but she wouldn't. It wasn't her place to poke her nose in Xi Qian's private affairs and didn't want to ruin her best friend's chance, in case Xi Qian was able to meet Li Xiran again, which she eventually did.

Technically, it seemed like nothing had yet to happen between the two as there was no hint of romance when Xi Qian spoke of him, but Su Xiaofei wanted to believe that it would only take some time before things shifted between the two.

"Well, I guess you are right. I've given a good thought on what you told me before and you were right, Feifei. I've been pushing myself to my limit and haven't done anything to invigorate myself." Xi Qian admitted with a weak laugh.

Su Xiaofei hummed. "It's good that you're aware of it now. It only means I wouldn't have to worry about you too much."

Xi Qian blinked at that and stared at her best friend. Su Xiaofei's words stunned her into silence. She knew that there were a lot of things on Su Xiaofei's plate that needed her immediate attention, but to actually hear that she was worried and had been thinking of her these days, Xi Qian felt moved.

Her eyes shone with tears, but she fought the urge to cry. Had she been walking around like an empty shell since her breakup? She hadn't really noticed, but thankfully, Su Xiaofei was there to remind her of her value as a person.

"Thanks, Feifei. You are the best!" Xi Qian beamed at her.

Su Xiaofei laughed at that, but her smile never quite reached her eyes. If only Xi Qian knew how amazing a person she was, she wouldn't have questioned herself like this. She had an otherworldly radiance that Su Xiaofei had never seen in any woman, even from the famous celebrities she had met. It drew people close to Xi Qian as if they were helpless to resist her.

"I'm not and you know it. Just don't forget that I'm here if you need someone to lean on, but in case you still want to beat the hell out of him, I know the perfect person for the job." She winked at her best friend.
