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

Chapter 82 - Raising A Husband Is Hard (2)

Lu Qingfeng released Su Xiaofei's wrist, and asked her if she wanted to go to the school clinic so a nurse could check to see if her wrist needs to be treated, but Su Xiaofei declined, hooking her arm with his instead and dragged him away, Xi Qian following after them.

'Geez, why did Su Xiaofei and Lu Qingfeng start shoving dog food down our throats?! My single heart is unwilling!'

'Hey, don't you think Su Xiaofei and Lu Qingfeng looked good together? Are they dating?'

The female lead had already left the scene, but the comments on the livestream continued to flood endlessly.

'Dating? Aren't they childhood friends? But now that you've mentioned it, I always see them together.'

'I wouldn't be surprised if they ended up dating, given how close they are to each other.'

'That's odd. It's more common to see the boy being a senior rather than the girl, but I guess it's the opposite for Lu Qingfeng.'

'Hahaha. Wouldn't that mean that Su Xiaofei might be raising her own husband without her realizing it?'

'That is if they are going to end up with each other, but I heard Su Xiaofei is already engaged to the young master of the Mo family. Lu Qingfeng would have a hard time to win her over if he really wanted to be with Su Xiaofei.'

The discussion continued without the knowledge of the parties involved. Lu Qingfeng and Su Xiaofei had no idea that being spotted together would make others ship the two of them together, although the followers were quite small in number for the meantime.

Once Nine, who drove the three, had dropped them at the restaurant where Su Xiaofei made the reservation, she busied herself scanning the menu, wondering what they should eat while Lu Qingfeng and Xi Qian looked at her worriedly.

"Feifei, are you sure your wrist is alright? Don't you feel any pain?" Xi Qian voiced her concern towards her best friend. She should have prevented Ye Mingyu from touching Su Xiaofei earlier.

"I'm fine, Qian." Su Xiaofei seemed to be in a good mood and didn't care about her wrist, but Lu Qingfeng would hear none of it.

He snatched her wrist and sprayed an antiseptic solution on it, causing Su Xiaofei to wince from the sting, before he gently covered her wrist with a spare bandage he always carried in his sports bag.

"Next time, don't let Ye Mingyu hold you like that. Be careful not to associate yourself with her. She would only bring you trouble." He warned her.

"Oh? How do you know, Xiao Feng? Have you met Ye Mingyu before?" Su Xiaofei laughed, but the moment she saw the seriousness on Lu Qingfeng's face, her smile faltered.

"What is it?" She asked cautiously.

Lu Qingfeng didn't respond immediately, as if he was hesitating to share what he knew about Ye Mingyu.

"That woman… she was at the public market when you were stabbed in front of the pharmacy. I asked Nine to find the footage of that day and we saw Ye Mingyu standing there before and after the stabbing took place."

Su Xiaofei froze after hearing that. So Ye Mingyu was really there. Lu Qingfeng wouldn't like to hear about something as serious as this, but she hadn't expected that he would try to investigate the event himself, and she could only pray that Lu Qingfeng wouldn't suspect her, given that she too had a purpose for being there.

However, now that she had confirmed Ye Mingyu's presence on the day she was stabbed instead of Master Ouyang, it only strengthened her suspicion - that woman knew something that others aren't aware of.

"Ye Mingyu was also there?" Xi Qian asked in disbelief. Perhaps she was panicking so much that she didn't notice the people around them at that time.

"En. She was definitely there." Lu Qingfeng confirmed, eyeing Su Xiaofei.

Su Xiaofei wasn't sure if Ye Mingyu was merely taking advantage of the event or if she was in cahoots with those people who wanted Master Ouyang dead. She also had yet to find out how Ye Mingyu was able to obtain the cold poison which she used to kill Su Xiaofei in her previous life.

"Do you think it's a coincidence, Xiao Feng?" She asked the young man, who was seated across from her and Xi Qian.

"Xiaofei, since when did you start believing in coincidences?" He asked in return.

Su Xiaofei fell silent on that. Of course she knew it couldn't just be a mere coincidence when there was evidence pointing to the fact that it wasn't.

"Unless Ye Mingyu is a clairvoyant, she can't possibly know that you and Master Ouyang would be there, right?" Xi Qian's seemingly innocent question, suggested another possibility for Su Xiaofei and Lu Qingfeng to consider.

It was either Ye Mingyu had investigated Su Xiaofei before coming to Qiying City, or she was also reborn like Su Xiaofei and Lu Qingfeng.

If so, how many lifetimes did Ye Mingyu already live? Was she originally from this world or not? Was this her second rebirth like Su Xiaofei or was it a total reset on her part? Lu Qingfeng wondered.

For a person who was now living his third life, Ye Mingyu's existence was the biggest enigma he was facing right now.

In his first and original life, there was no such person as Ye Mingyu in his and Su Xiaofei's life. Su Xiaofei didn't have to compete with any woman for Mo Yuchen.

In his second life, this Ye Mingyu appeared out of nowhere and plotted against Su Xiaofei, which eventually ruined not only his plans, but also pushed Su Xiaofei to her own death.

In this third and current life of his, Lu Qingfeng felt that Ye Mingyu didn't retain any of her past memories, as she could have easily outwit Su Xiaofei if she did.

Then… What was he supposed to do now to protect Su Xiaofei from the death flag awaiting her?
