Rebirth Of The Villainess: Young Master Lu's Wicked Wife-Chapter 14 - You Can Never Be My Sister (2)
Chapter 14 - You Can Never Be My Sister (2)
Su Xiaofei watched as her mother conversed happily with Aunty Liu and Xi Qian, while Lu Qingfeng sat next to her bed, passing her a plate of sliced apples that had skin on it. Lu
Qingfeng was aware of her preferences, so Su Xiaofei didn't need to remind him of it.
As she nibbled on a piece of apple, Lu Qingfeng stared at her face. Su Xiaofei could sense that he wanted to ask her something, but was hesitating to voice his concerns.
Although there were times that she was aware that Lu Qingfeng wasn't pleased with her choices, especially regarding Mo Yuchen, he rarely voiced his concerns and disappointment.
"What do you want to know this time?" Su Xiaofei decided to acknowledge the elephant in the room. Since Lu Qingfeng was sitting next to her, he probably wanted to know what made her change her mind towards Mo Yuchen or if she was just bluffing to ease her mother's worry.
"I'm just wondering…" Lu Qingfeng's words trailed off. It wasn't easy to believe Su Xiaofei's claims when they were all aware of how extreme she could be to get whatever she wanted.
"You are wondering if I did it to seduce Mo Yuchen. Do you really think I'm that kind of person, Xiao Feng?" She chuckled at him amusedly.
Lu Qingfeng's frown deepened. It wasn't like he was suspecting her, but he was also aware that when Su Xiaofei had set her mind on something, it would be impossible to change her mind.
Su Xiaofei realized this, and she couldn't blame Lu Qingfeng for not believing her this time. It had only been days since she had this argument with Xi Qian about Mo Yuchen, and she knew it would be hard to convince Lu Qingfeng that she wouldn't pursue Mo Yuchen anymore.
"It's fine if you don't believe me now, Xiao Feng. However, you should wait and see for yourself if I am truly over him or not. Haven't I wasted enough time chasing after him?" f𝓇𝘦𝒆𝘄𝑒𝗯𝑛𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝘰𝓶
She tried to keep her voice low to make sure not to worry her mother again. All the people who truly loved her were in this room, how could she not think of a way to protect them in the future?
She was only eighteen at this time, and she would need to start accumulating resources she could use in the future to stop the Mo family from taking over her mother's business.
"You won't change your mind?" Lu Qingfeng asked her with all seriousness. He stared at her as if he was trying to detect deceit in her eyes, but there was none.
Su Xiaofei smiled and ruffled his hair, much to his irritation.
"Mo Yuchen doesn't deserve me."
"That's true." Surprisingly, Lu Qingfeng easily agreed with her. He then pushed away her hand and huffed in annoyance.
"Anyway, why are you being so mean to Xi Qian? Xiao Feng, you know she's my best friend, right? You shouldn't be mean to everyone and only be nice to me."
"I can't?" The young man raised a slender brow at her. "But why?"
It was Su Xiaofei's turn to frown this time. In the past, because Lu Qingfeng only cared about her, he purposely ignored Xi Qian's welfare. Su Xiaofei was sure that if the two got along with each other, Lu Qingfeng would be able to protect Xi Qian from any danger after her passing.
Alas, that never happened. Although she practically grew up with these two, they were always at each other's throats whenever they were in the same place. Whenever she confronted the two about it, Lu Qingfeng would claim that he didn't understand why she was always with Xi Qian, while the latter would tell Su Xiaofei that she was underestimating the devil beside her.
Su Xiaofei never understood that the two were fighting for her attention. On one side, Lu Qingfeng wanted to monopolize her to himself, while on the other side, Xi Qian thought that no man deserved her best friend.
The reason why she didn't get along with Lu Qingfeng was because she knew that he was a wolf in sheep's clothing. He pretended to be a good person in front of Su Xiaofei, hiding his horns in the process. She was aware of the indecent thoughts he bore for Su Xiaofei, which was why Xi Qian was wary of him.
"Don't you trust your Jiejie?"
"You aren't my Jiejie." Lu Qingfeng denied her at once. "You can never be my Jiejie."
"Is that so?" Su Xiaofei rubbed her chin with her free hand. "Here I thought you treated me as a family member."
Lu Qingfeng's jaws hardened as he glared at her.
"Now, come on. Didn't we grow up in the same neighborhood since we were younger? You would usually come to me for a sleepover because you are afraid of the thunderstorm. Do you still need my help to tuck you in bed and stay with you until the storm passes?" She teased him, liking the way he gritted his teeth and forced himself to rein his anger towards her.
"Su Xiaofei!" He hissed.
"What? You don't have to be shy. Your Jiejie will chase away the monsters as you sleep." Su Xiaofei then pushed the last piece of sliced apple into his mouth.
Lu Qingfeng opened his mouth and allowed her to feed him. He bit the sliced apple in half before moving forward, his thin lips touching the soft skin of Su Xiaofei's forefinger, his eyes never leaving her.
Su Xiaofei shivered at the intensity of his gaze and wondered since when did he have such influence on her. She could only stare back at him as if she was in a trance. How come she wasn't aware that Lu Qingfeng had such a side in the past?
Lu Qingfeng then pulled the rest of the apple into his mouth and bit her finger with half-lidded eyes.
"Su Xiaofei, you can never be my Jiejie. Not in the past, not now and definitely not in the future."
