Rebirth Of The Villainess: Young Master Lu's Wicked Wife-Chapter 557 No Regrets (2)

"Grandpa and your Dad are worried about you. Please go home. You really don't need to do all this. I'm your cousin. Let's keep it that way, unless you want me to hate you and make enemies in the process." Su Xiaofei said.

Yun Xiang didn't seem to understand what she meant, and she sighed.

"Do you really think my husband and his friends are oblivious to what you are doing?"

His eyes widened in understanding.

Had he really not considered it?

"See? And I don't see the point of doing all this. I don't know and would rather not know why you are even attracted to me, but I would rather tell you the truth now than lead you on for something that could never happen."

Su Xiaofei paused, wondering if Ye Mingyu made that decision in the past. Seeing how crazy Cai Lin became, it was obvious that she had led him on without any intention of accepting him. She kept him around her with an ambiguous status because he was useful and immediately cut him off when she no longer had any use of him.

'How selfish and arrogant.' Su Xiaofei thought. Not like she was any better than Ye Mingyu anyway.

Compared to the previous Ye Mingyu, she was nothing against that woman's scheming. Ye Mingyu loved to make use of anyone in her favor, but Su Xiaofei would rather not invite trouble to her door by making things complicated between herself and Yun Xiang.

"I see." Yun Xiang sighed, and somehow, Su Xiaofei saw some enlightenment and understanding in his eyes.

"You are right. Our family is more important than these." He said, gesturing to the reports he had given her earlier.

"I hope that you are right about him, Xiaofei. I would be the first one in line to beat his ass if he dares to make you cry."

At those words, Su Xiaofei chuckled. She was relieved to know that she was able to shake some sense back into Yun Xiang.

"I would expect nothing less with you, Brother Xiang. Please don't disappoint me."

Su Xiaofei then rose from her seat, intending to leave before her husband became worried about her whereabouts. However, she stopped in her tracks when Yun Xiang called her name.

"Xiaofei?"

She looked over her shoulder and waited for him to continue.

"Yes?"

"I wonder… if you aren't my Aunt Qing's daughter, and we aren't cousins, would you consider me?" He said in a low tone, which Su Xiaofei almost missed.

"No." She answered without batting an eyelid.

"But Xiaofei…"

"You are a good man, Brother Xiang and I don't think we are compatible in many ways. You deserve to be with someone who would choose you every single day of your life no matter what and not regard you as an option. Please be happy, Brother Xiang."

Yun Xiang opened his mouth to say something, but what he had in mind earlier had disappeared after hearing what Su Xiaofei said. He looked straight in her eyes and saw that she wasn't lying at all.

He burst into laughter and held his forehead in one hand. How ridiculous. He had thought that he would be able to sway Su Xiaofei to leave Lu Qingfeng if he revealed her husband's wrongdoings, but instead, she only claimed to love Lu Qingfeng even more. He really didn't have a chance to win her heart at all.

Su Xiaofei eyed him, wondering if he finally lost all the screws in his head. She was starting to think that Yun Xiang was becoming a different person from the one she knew.

"Thank you, Feifei, and I'm sorry for causing you and Lu Qingfeng trouble. I have no excuses for what I've done, but please extend my apology to your husband. I know better now."

Su Xiaofei regarded him for a moment and nodded. She could only hope that Yun Xiang would uphold his words today and not cause her any more trouble in the future. Thinking of the kind of interaction they had in the past, she thought it would be unfair to treat Yun Xiang unjustly when he hadn't done anything to harm her or Lu Qingfeng.

Today was…. Well, a bit disappointing in her opinion though. Just as she thought that she could at least be civil with him, Yun Xiang entertained this foolish idea to pursue her.

"If that's all, I'll be going then. I hope to hear the news of your return soon." She said as her parting words.

When she stepped out of the room, she found Zhang Lan waiting for her in the hallway with a stiff expression on her face. Su Xiaofei didn't need to ask, for she knew that her bodyguard was upset that she made her leave her alone with Yun Xiang.

"You heard all of it?" Su Xiaofei asked, and Zhang Lan nodded in response. She supposed that Yun Xiang hadn't chosen the right spot to meet her.

"Don't tell Lu Qingfeng. If Yun Xiang broke his promise today, you would be the first one to deal with him."

This somewhat appeased Zhang Lan as she nodded without complaining. Zhang Lan led her mistress out of the club, making sure that no one was paying attention to them. Once they were out, the earpiece in her right ear beeped, reminding her of the report she just received from her younger sister.

She stopped, making Su Xiaofei halt and look at her confusedly. Zhang Lan reached out a hand and picked up an invisible lint on her collar, making it look like a friendly gesture to the public eye.

"Madam, Ye Mingyu has followed us here and took some photos. Your order, please?" She whispered.

Su Xiaofei blinked twice, before her lips curled into a smile. How could she not take advantage of this opportunity to hit two birds in one stone?

"Tell Zhang Ling to invite Miss Ye for a coffee. I'm sure she has a lot to say to me now."
