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

The next day, Su Xiaofei and her mother woke up early. This was the day she would be meeting the Yun family for the first time since her rebirth. Su Xiaofei wasn't expecting anything from them, aside from them scrutinizing her worth as her mother's daughter.

As much as Yun Qingrong wanted to accompany her daughter, she knew that her father wasn't ready to see her yet, and she could only wait and see if Feifei would be able to move his heart to consider having a word with her.

"Calm down, Mama. I'm just meeting Grandpa and uncles. They won't eat me alive, right?"

Yun Qingrong shook her head and forced a smile before cupping the sides of Su Xiaofei's face.

"Mama is just worried that her old man would give you a cold shoulder because of my mistake." She stated.

Su Xiaofei placed a kiss on her mother's palm and smiled.

"If the General is really that amazing, he wouldn't be holding any sort of prejudice against me."

It was already ten in the morning when the car she rode arrived at the Yun Estate where her mother's family resided. She stepped out and marveled at how beautiful the place was.

Su Xiaofei smiled faintly as she took in the surroundings. The place was huge, and it surprisingly looked homey compared to other estates she had seen owned by the wealthy families in Qiying City.

"Xiao Fei, you came early."

Su Xiaofei tilted her head and felt a slight coolness of the morning breeze brush her face. She then saw Yun Xiang coming her way, and she tried to suppress the cold indifference in her eyes upon seeing him. She truly hated his faux upright personality, which she knew could easily be blinded by his infatuation with a woman.

Yun Xiang acted like he was a kindhearted and upright person. He had this sense of justice whenever he saw someone being bullied or wronged in front of him. Alas, in Su Xiaofei's eyes, he was nothing but a fool, because he wasn't able to see past Ye Mingyu's act in her past life.

While she didn't have any qualms towards the Yun family, Yun Xiang had a long list of debts he needed to settle with her. She briefly wondered if Yun Xiang was treating her with such kindness because he still couldn't get rid of the guilt of causing her harm due to his own negligence.

Yun Xiang stopped in his tracks when his eyes met her gaze, and for a moment, he felt like something was wrong with Su Xiaofei. He blinked and whatever he'd seen earlier disappeared, making him wonder if it had been there in the first place.

"Did Brother Xiang come here to make sure I won't slip up in front of your grandfather?" She asked with a small smile.

Yun Xiang laughed awkwardly and tried to suppress the blush that crept on his face. It was a little out of character for a military man like him. Unlike his predecessors, Yun Xiang wore his heart on his sleeve and wasn't ashamed to express what he thought and what he felt towards another person.

Su Xiaofei thought that if she were to compare him to Lu Qingfeng, they would be the perfect contrast of each other, as Lu Qingfeng was sometimes hard to read, even for Su Xiaofei.

"Is Xiao Fei worried that Grandpa wouldn't like you? Don't worry, as long as you can be yourself and be honest, grandpa will surely like you." He tried to reassure her, but Su Xiaofei knew better than to believe him.

Just be herself? Heh, that would be impossible. She cannot allow anyone to see how vicious and wicked her heart was. Even her mother and Xi Qian weren't aware of what's going on in her mind. Only Lu Qingfeng was able to take a peek of what she truly was inside.

"Then we should go before grandpa becomes impatient awaiting your arrival." Yun Xiang said.

Su Xiaofei smiled lightly and nodded.

"I will be troubling Brother Xiang to lead the way, then."

At her smile, Yun Xiang was slightly taken aback and blushed in embarrassment. He berated himself for acting like an idiot in front of his cousin, although Su Xiaofei wasn't really his aunt's biological child.

"O-okay. Let's go then." He gestured her to follow him.

Yun Xiang had a few personal questions for Su Xiaofei, but as he glanced at the side profile of her face, he decided to hold it down for a moment. He swallowed the invisible lump in his throat and wiped his sweaty palms on the side of his pants, wondering why he was acting like this in Su Xiaofei's presence.

Yun Xiang led Su Xiaofei inside the main house, and they were greeted by the servants who lined themselves to welcome Su Xiaofei. As Su Xiaofei walked past them, some couldn't resist stealing a glance of her face, feeling awed upon seeing it.

As Su Xiaofei looked around inside the huge house, she realized that her mother's taste in decorations was almost the same as what she could see in the Yun Estate. Yun Xiang led her upstairs and she wordlessly followed him as her eyes continued to scan her surroundings with her impassive face.

Once they reached the study where General Yun and his three sons were waiting, Yun Xiang gave her one last glance and was slightly baffled at how indifferent she seemed for this meeting.

Shouldn't she be nervous by now? Was she even aware that she was adopted by her aunt and Su Haoran and that she wasn't really part of the Su and the Yun families? These were some of the things that Yun Xiang wanted to ask Su Xiaofei, but he didn't want to offend her with his questions.

He knocked on the door twice before turning the doorknob to open the door. He then announced Su Xiaofei's arrival.

"Grandpa, Su Xiaofei is here to see you."
