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

Ye Mingyu's name and popularity soared too fast in the following weeks compared to other talents that debuted around the same time as her. It didn't surprise Su Xiaofei, but she didn't do anything to stop Ye Mingyu from becoming popular. The more Ye Mingyu rose to the top, the better for Su Xiaofei, because the higher she could reach, the harder she would fall later.

Su Xiaofei had to admit that Ye Mingyu's skills and talent in acting were better than her peers, it was also better than Su Xiaofei herself. If it was in the past, seeing Ye Mingyu garnering such praises for her beauty and talent was enough to make Su Xiaofei green with envy, now, she couldn't be bothered with Ye Mingyu's facade.

Because she knew that behind that beautiful face and those gentle smiles hid a rotten and cruel heart deep inside Ye Mingyu. Truth be told, the two of them were almost the same when it came to being vicious. It was just that Ye Mingyu knew how to play her cards well and knew how to evoke the feeling of protectiveness from other people and use it to her advantage, unlike Su Xiaofei.

After Su Xiaofei finished her work for the week, she clocked off from work on time. At the moment, she was managing three actors and a girl group called "Full Moon". It consisted of four young ladies that could sing and dance, and their group had recently debuted, releasing their first album.

"Full Moon" was the very first girl group that Bluemedia had produced. In the past, their company catered to actors and models, and although some of them could sing and dance, it was only a requirement to add on to their skills as talents.

Because Su Xiaofei had witnessed how idols and girl groups became a hit in her previous life, she started paying attention to the new recruits of Bluemedia.

Although girl groups weren't actually new in showbiz, Su Xiaofei knew that it would all depend on what the group could offer to the audience. She specifically picked the ones she saw potential in and she had actually encountered one of them in her past life as an actress.

As Su Xiaofei left Bluemedia with the Zhang siblings, someone called her attention as soon as she reached the main lobby of the company building. The weariness on her face suddenly dissipated when she saw Xi Qian waiting for her.

"Qian, what are you doing here? You should have told me you are coming to see me. I would have clocked out earlier." Su Xiaofei said once she gave her best friend a tight hug.

Xi Qian laughed and tucked some of her locks behind her ear and grinned.

"I want to surprise you. It wouldn't be a surprise anymore if you know I'll be here, right?"

Like Su Xiaofei, she had shed the childish features she used to have and looked prettier. She was a bit taller than Su Xiaofei now, which made the latter grieve over how short she was compared to Xi Qian and Lu Qingfeng.

Xi Qian had already finished her four-year undergraduate program, which was the precursor to medical school, and was now busy reviewing for her medical college admission test. Currently, she has a major in Nursing, which also gave her an advantage to practice it while pursuing her studies to become a doctor.

She needed to take her admission exam one full calendar year before she began medical school, so Su Xiaofei rarely saw her these days.

"En, but I'm glad you came here to see me, Qian. I thought I would need to drag you out of the apartment again to remind you that there is life outside your textbooks." Su Xiaofei hooked her arm with her best friend and led her to her car.

Zhang Ling opened the door of the backseat to allow Su Xiaofei and Xi Qian to settle inside, while her elder sister took her place behind the steering wheel as usual. After making sure that her miss and her best friend were comfortably seated, Zhang Ling's eyes swept around the parking area to make sure that no one was spying on them, before joining her sister at the front seat.

Once the car left Bluemedia's premises, Zhang Ling turned on the radio, and was surprised to hear one of the songs from the latest album released by "Full Moon".

"Ah, Feifei! I love this song! I know that this is too much to ask, but do you mind asking Full Moon to sign an autograph for me?" Xi Qian asked excitedly. This wasn't the first time she asked for such a favor from Su Xiaofei anyway, as she had also requested an autograph by Tang Liyan, after the success of "The Poisonous Concubine".

Su Xiaofei didn't have many talents to handle, but those talents were big time and popular to begin with. Full Moon was the first girl group and talent that Su Xiaofei conceptualized from scratch, so it could be said that of all her talents, she paid more attention to her girl group.

Su Xiaofei smiled at her best friend's eagerness. Despite knowing that she could meet the girls if she asked Su Xiaofei to, Xi Qian wasn't shameful enough to request a meeting with them, even when she asked for Tang Liyan's autograph.

"I'm afraid I won't be able to meet them anytime soon, Qian. Their current schedule is jam-packed. I kinda pity them for not having any break aside from sleep." Su Xiaofei answered with amusement.

She had suggested cutting down their public appearance and interviews, but those girls wouldn't let her decline those invitations. The four of them were so driven with their excitement and glee that they didn't mind being busy for days at a time because they claimed that it only meant that their hard work for the past two years was paying off.

It took Su Xiaofei and the girls a long time before the group was able to have their much anticipated debut, as the training had been hard, and the board didn't think the girls were ready.

"Ah, then I could only hope I would be lucky to get a ticket to their very first concert." Xi Qian smiled at Su Xiaofei. "By the way, did Lu Qingfeng say anything to you?"

Su Xiaofei frowned at that as the smile on her lips dissipated once she heard Lu Qingfeng's name. Actually, it had been two weeks since she received a call from him before he left for a long business trip. She wasn't sure why Xi Qian was suddenly asking her this, and wondered if she was still in touch with Lu Qingfeng.

"Nothing. He was on his way to the airport when he called me. Is there something I need to know?" Su Xiaofei asked in return, her eyes narrowing slightly in suspicion.

Xi Qian laughed at her best friend's expression and shook her head. If Lu Qingfeng hadn't said anything, then she had no right to spoil his surprise. Lu Qingfeng had recently turned twenty-one, and in a few weeks, it would be Su Xiaofei's turn to celebrate her twenty-fourth birthday.

As Xi Qian thought about it, she realized that so many things had changed over the years. Some of it she already expected, but there were changes that she never anticipated at all.

Although her father's new family was still a pain in her butt, and her mother was annoying her for financial support, her relationship with Su Xiaofei and Lu Qingfeng turned for the better.

Anyway, she had also met a lot of people and made friends during her time at college, and Xi Qian couldn't be happier with her decision to pursue her dream.

"By the way, have you heard about Xiao Rufeng lately? I heard the Xiao family is in trouble these days. Do you think they asked her to return?" She asked Su Xiaofei.

She and Xiao Rufeng had become good friends courtesy of Su Xiaofei. Whenever Xiao Rufeng was agitated by her younger sister, she would come to Xi Qian for a spar at the gym they frequently visited with Su Xiaofei.

"I don't know, Qian." Su Xiaofei could only sigh and pinch the bridge of her nose when she thought about Xiao Rufeng. Xiao Rufeng debuted in showbiz three years ago and became one of Su Xiaofei's talents. However, it was hard for Xiao Rufeng to catch a break as every project that was being offered to her was snatched away by her younger sister, Xiao Yunyao.

Because of this, Xiao Rufeng's temper and mood hadn't been good these days, and Su Xiaofei feared that the woman would commit the same mistake she did in her past life.. She had been reminding Xiao Rufeng not to confront her younger sister, but if things within the Xiao family were getting worse, Su Xiaofei wouldn't be able to stop her from going back to her family.
