Rebirth of the Villainess: Young Master Lu’s Wicked Wife

That night, a private villa that was recently purchased by the Qiao family in Qiying City was buzzing with talks and laughter. It had been months since Qiao Yuhan had seen Su Xiaofei and neither of his parents were surprised to see him clinging on the young woman's arm and never left her side since her arrival with Lu Qingfeng and Xi Qian.

As Su Xiaofei looked at the dishes waiting for them at the diner table, her eyes lit up when she saw her favorite brand of blueberry cheesecake.

"Woah. You shouldn't have bothered to buy me a cheesecake tonight, Xiao Han." Su Xiaofei told the young boy. No wonder Qiao Yuhan had been asking her what her favorites were the last time they FaceTimed with each other.

"Brother Lu helped me to buy one." Qiao Yuhan's smile was exceptionally bright tonight. "I also want to try it."

Su Xiaofei smiled at her younger brother. Oddly enough, she had never thought that she could be a good sister to Qiao Yuhan before this. She had been a selfish and spoiled child in her past life, but knowing now that she had a younger half-brother had changed Su Xiaofei's views about family. Now, all she wanted to see was for her younger brother to be happy.

As their dinner continued, Qiao Fengying took this chance to catch up with the recent events at Qiying City.

"I heard that your mother's company had decided to take on Qin Muyao's case." He told Su Xiaofei. "It must have been hard for them to clear his name after that false allegation."

Su Xiaofei took a sip from her drink and glanced at Lu Qingfeng. Aside from her mother and Uncle Fang, he was the only one who was aware that Qin Muyao was under her management now.

Qin Muyao had been on the entertainment news recently and it was only natural that Qiao Fengying got curious after hearing that Bluemedia was involved.

"It certainly wasn't easy, President Qiao. Mama expected that Bluemedia would also receive criticism for helping Qin Muyao, but thankfully, the public seems to care more about Jiang Li's false accusation."

"Did he manage to retrieve his lost endorsements, Feifei? It would be a pity if Qin Muyao didn't receive any compensation from what had happened." Xi Qian muttered as she thought of how cowardly Jiang Li was being now that she was exposed for her cheating affairs.

"Bluemedia managed to convince some of them to reconsider Qin Muyao, but of course the projects that he lost during the controversy had already found his replacements. Anyway, you shouldn't worry too much, Qian. Mama already assigned someone to manage him."

Once dinner was over, Qiao Yuhan dragged Xi Qian to his room to brag about the newest game console he received from his parents while Su Xiaofei and Lu Qingfeng were left in the dining area with the Qiao couple.

"Miss Su, I heard from Young Master Lu that the two of you are interested in investing in our company." Qiao Fengying started. "Are you sure about this?" He didn't want anyone to think that he was taking advantage of their young age.

Su Xiaofei nodded. While she was at ease being with Qiao Yuhan, she still felt weird and nervous being in her birth father's company. It was vastly different from the hatred she felt whenever she was in Su Haoran's presence.

"You heard him, right, President Qiao. Xiao Feng told me that you were looking for investors for your newest project. We both think that it would be worth it to try investing in it." She affirmed.

Father. It was such a foreign word for someone like Su Xiaofei. When she was younger, she had always wondered what it felt like to have a loving father that could spoil her. She had seen how her classmates interacted with their parents, and Su Xiaofei briefly wondered why Su Haoran was treating her with indifference.

When Ye Mingyu appeared in her previous life, taking the role of a filial daughter, Su Haoran had doted on her, much to Su Xiaofei's disappointment. However, finding out at the end of her life the truth about her being adopted, it made sense to her why she never received any fatherly love from Su Haoran.

Su Xiaofei lowered her gaze, wondering if Qiao Fengying would be a good father to her like he was to Qiao Yuhan. She was his eldest child, and yet they weren't given a chance to be together in her previous life.

"Have you discussed this with your parents? Investing fifty million isn't that simple, Miss Su." President Qiao reminded her, his tone gentle with a hint of concern in it, which only cemented Su Xiaofei's opinion that he was far different compared to Su Haoran.

"I have confidence that President Qiao wouldn't misuse our investment. Please consider it, President Qiao. Xiao Feng and I are both willing to invest in your project. You don't need to worry about the funding for now and focus on the R&D."

"If President Qiao is worried about it, I already discussed this with my grandfather, and he gave me the go-signal. He said taking some risks is unavoidable, but if Xiaofei and I have confidence in your project, then we'll just have to wait and watch how the events will unfold in the future." Lu Qingfeng backed up Su Xiaofei's words.

It may take some time, but if Qiao Fengying was able to develop his project without encountering any problems, he and Su Xiaofei would surely reap a lot of money in the future. Su Xiaofei would be able to reach her 100 million target just in time when Mo Yuchen ascended as the newest CEO of Golden Star. 

Qiao Fengying looked at Su Xiaofei and Lu Qingfeng, as if he wanted to see if there was even a hint of hesitation in their eyes, but there was none.. These two seemed to have made up their minds.
