Rebirth Of The Villainess: Young Master Lu's Wicked Wife-Chapter 592 Eternal Spell (1)
Xiao Rufeng intended to spend her whole weekend with Yan Xiuchen. She had been content with the way her life was going and didn't think there's anyone who would be able to sour her mood. Neither she nor Yan Xiuchen had mentioned anything about her younger sister, though she knew that he'd been keeping an eye on Xiao Yunyao.
Perhaps he had considered the thought that Xiao Yunyao might seek revenge towards her. Yan Xiuchen had vowed that nothing was going to come between them. Not a crazy little sister, not their families nor her avid fans.
She wasn't the only one who had been busy anyway. Yan Xiuchen was doing his best to clear his calendar and make sure to spare some time to talk to her, but it had been hard. It was the time of the year that Yan Xiuchen needed to do his annual inspection, so he was all over the country for the past weeks, so they hadn't seen each other.
There were times that Xiao Rufeng was feeling needy and wanted to talk to him more, but she had been content in waiting for a bit because he always made time for her and Yan Xiuchen never failed to do so.
It wasn't like they never encountered a problem. Just like any other couple, there were times when she couldn't understand him and had to be patient with him. Though Xiao Rufeng wanted to think that she was the luckiest woman on earth to have him, Yan Xiuchen wasn't a person who was vocal with his feelings, but he would make sure she knew she was loved by him through his actions.
"Are you sure this is enough?"
Xiao Rufeng broke off from her trance when Yan Xiuchen asked her. They were working in his kitchen as she insisted that they needed to try some recipes she'd seen online.
"Yes. The recipe calls for 10 grams. It should be alright." She answered with a slight blush on her cheeks.
Dear Lord, she really had it bad with him. Despite the fact that they were together now, Yan Xiuchen was still able to make her heart flutter from the sight of him. His eyes would always light up whenever he saw her and that was enough for Xiao Rufeng to know that he wanted her.
Didn't he know how handsome he was in her eyes? Just by looking at him made her remember the dirty and intimate things they had done behind closed doors. Xiao Rufeng had no doubt that her boyfriend would be popular with the ladies if his face wasn't marred with scars.
Some people might find his scars hideous to look at, but it made her all hot and bothered and she had to press her legs together in a poor attempt to stop herself from being turned on by the sight of him. She cleared her throat and tried to focus on the matter at hand, hoping that Yan Xiuchen hadn't noticed her burning cheeks.

As Xiao Rufeng worked in his kitchen, wanting to bake something for them to enjoy, Yan Xiuchen couldn't take his eyes off her. Even when her cheeks were dusted with flour as she accidentally spilled some on her clothes, she still looked beautiful in his eyes. She looked a little stressed though, which he was sure it was because of the upcoming premiere of the second season of the series she was starring in along with Ye Mingyu.
"Calm down, Rufeng. You look stressed and uneasy. Do you want to tell me what's bothering you?" He asked as he leaned against the counter, waiting for his girlfriend to calm down.
"Is it obvious?" Xiao Rufeng smiled awkwardly, trying to smooth her shirt. "Sorry. I just don't know what to expect after the series is over. Su Xiaofei hasn't informed me of any other project being offered to me."
"I know you, Rufeng. You would chatter non stop whenever something bothers you. You have this look on your face that tells me you are worried about something. I had a word with Su Xiaofei before and from the way it is going, I think she already has a plan in mind."
"But I should be receiving offers and endorsements right now. Ye Mingyu have already secured some and the series hasn't even wrapped up yet. What if I'm not really as relevant as I thought I am?" She said worriedly.
"You didn't fuck up, Rufeng. You just need to be patient. Why don't you take a break and relax, now that the filming is almost over?" Yan Xiuchen suggested, picking up one of the eclairs Xiao Rufeng baked earlier and nibbled delicately on it.
"This is amazing! If you ever get tired of acting and want to pursue a career in baking, let me know. I'll be the first one to invest in your bakery."
Xiao Rufeng laughed at his words, but Yan Xiuchen was dead serious with his suggestion. He liked spoiling her, but it was obvious that she wouldn't want to receive neither expensive jewelry nor a land title many businessmen would covet to own.
He didn't care how much it would cost him, nor did he care if another man could provide it for her. All he knew was that if someone was coming to hurt or take away his woman, he'd make them pay for it.
"Hmm… but I don't like to cook for people." She quietly admitted while stirring the batter in the mixing bowl she was holding. "I like baking, but I don't think it's a career I would like to pursue. It's supposed to help me relax and calm down, not become another headache I need to endure."
She smiled when she saw the affectionate look on his face and somehow, her woes were forgotten. Perhaps she was overthinking things and it didn't help that she'd been constantly compared to Ye Mingyu lately. That woman seemed to have changed overnight and it's frightening.

Yan Xiuchen woke up with Xiao Rufeng in his arms. It was one of the things he looked forward to whenever she came to visit. He loved the feeling of her warmth next to her. His hand reached out and brushed her hair away from her face, marveling at what good deed he had done to be able to be loved by someone like her. She was like a dream that came true.
"You're beautiful to me. Your scars are the part of you that I like. They are a reminder of how strong you've become." Xiao Rufeng once told him and she had gently touched the scars that ran from his shoulder down to his chest last night.
Xiao Rufeng groaned and rolled to her side, wanting to sleep a little more, knowing that she wouldn't be needed anywhere except here, next to Yan Xiuchen. Her arms reach for him, intending to trap him in the bed with her.
"Morning." He whispered, as he brushed her hair away again. "Can't we stay here in bed a little longer?" She asked.
"Rufeng, as much as I want to stay in bed a little longer with you, I have a video conference in an hour. I need to get ready." Yan Xiuchen gently peeled her hands off his arm and slid out of the bed, allowing her to sleep longer.
He covered his nakedness with a robe and glanced at the woman who decided to return to her slumber as soon as he left. Her bare back exposed for him to see. The marks left on her smooth skin was a reminder of yet another passionate night they shared.
Yan Xiuchen had thousands of things he could say right then. She was like a siren who had put him under an eternal spell. She had ruined him and he knew that he wouldn't be able to look at another woman without thinking of her.
Meeting Xiao Rufeng had been one of the best things that ever happened in his life, aside from meeting his brothers. However, being romantically involved with her had made him the happiest he could remember. She challenged him to be better, delighted him in everything and now, even though he had a feeling that he had known this woman for a very long time, Xiao Rufeng still managed to surprise him once in a while.
Suddenly, he desperately wanted to see his future with her. He would move heaven and earth to have her by his side forever. He wanted her to stay here with him forever, but Yan Xiuchen knew that it was still too early for them to consider marriage. Not when she had a lot more to accomplish as an actress.

Suddenly her phone rang, but Xiao Rufeng didn't budge from the bed to answer it. It seemed like she really decided to leave everything momentarily behind her as she slept.
Yan Xiuchen shook his head and picked up her phone. His eyes narrowed dangerously when he saw the name flashing on its screen.
