Rebirth of the Villainess: Young Master Lu’s Wicked Wife
30 The Star Would Never Shine Without Darkness (2)
When the car arrived at the Su Residence, Yun Qingrong, along with Aunty Liu and Lu Qingfeng were waiting for Su Xiaofei and Xi Qian's return. When Xi Qian called her an hour ago, informing her something had happened yet again to her daughter, Yun Qingrong panicked.
Su Xiaofei would usually inform her ahead if she was going to stay in her apartment and wouldn't be home, but this time, when the clock struck eight, Yun Qingrong didn't hear anything from her daughter and was wondering where she and Xi Qian had gone. It also didn't help that the bodyguards she assigned to her daughter weren't returning her calls.
"We're here, Feifei." Xi Qian shook Su Xiaofei's shoulder to wake her up from her nap.
Su Xiaofei stirred from her sleep and cracked an eye open. She hadn't realized that she had fallen asleep while they were on the road. She felt dizzy and hot at the same time. Just like what Han Zijun told her earlier, it seemed like she was about to have a fever.
Yun Xiang was the first to alight from the car and opened the door of the backseat for the two young women, while Master Ouyang was still inside the car that was following them.
Seeing that two cars had pulled up in front of her residence, Yun Qingrong rushed out to see them, worry written all over her face as Lu Qingfeng followed behind her with an unreadable expression on his face.
As soon as Lu Qingfeng saw Su Xiaofei's ghastly pale complexion and unfocused sight, he forced Yun Xiang aside when the latter was about to take hold of Su Xiaofei to bring her inside the residence.
Yun Xiang was taken aback by this young man's actions, but didn't comment on it.
Su Xiaofei wound her arms around Lu Qingfeng's neck and took a deep breath before shutting her eyes. With Lu Qingfeng here, she didn't need to worry about anything right now. She felt a hand touching her forehead and knew it was her mother worrying about her again.
"Feifei…" She heard her mother's voice, but Su Xiaofei didn't have the strength to explain what happened to her.
"Aunty Qing, I'll take Feifei inside." Lu Qingfeng told her mother.
Su Xiaofei could only bask in Lu Qingfeng's warmth as she tried to keep her consciousness this time.
"Okay." Yun Qingrong replied. She still needed to entertain the guests they unexpectedly had to receive tonight and had to talk to Xi Qian to find out what happened to them. She watched as Lu Qingfeng held her daughter carefully as he brought Su Xiaofei inside and headed straight to her bedroom.
When she faced Yun Xiang, she was momentarily taken aback seeing his familiar face, but she couldn't remember where she had seen him. This young man in front of her was oddly familiar.
Meanwhile, Master Ouyang alighted from the car and was caught off guard when he saw that Yun Qingrong was the one standing next to young Lu Qingfeng earlier. He hadn't seen this woman for a long time, ever since she was disowned by her own family after she chose to marry her husband twenty years ago.
"Qing'er, is that you?" He called out, wondering if he was seeing things or was it really Yun Qingrong, the only daughter of the Yun family.
Hearing her name being called out, Yun Qingrong turned her head to the direction of the voice and was surprised to see the familiar old man she hadn't seen in ages.
"Uncle Luo, what brings you to my humble abode? Did my Feifei cause you trouble?" She asked politely.
It wouldn't be the first time someone would reach out to her to complain about her daughter anyway. But why did Feifei look sick in Lu Qingfeng's arms earlier?
"Oh, no, Qing'er. It's quite the opposite, actually. It's this old man's fault that your daughter was injured earlier." Master Ouyang said with a deep sigh.
Just thinking about how the young woman earlier suffered because of him had made his heart ache. However, never in a million years would he think that young woman was Yun Qingrong's daughter.
Yun Qingrong's face lost its color upon hearing that. "My Feifei was injured?"
"Madam, why don't we move this discussion inside?" Thankfully, Auntie Liu was by her side, holding Yun Qingrong's arm gently.
"Y-yes… we should do that." Yun Qingrong nodded in agreement, but her thoughts remained with her daughter. Su Xiaofei had just recently been discharged from the hospital, so what was wrong with her this time?
"Qian, just stay here with us for the night, okay? I would worry about you too if you insist on going home this late." Yun Qingrong told her daughter's best friend. She then thought of how lucky her Feifei was for having Xi Qian and Lu Qingfeng as her friends.
Aunty Liu led Master Ouyang and Yun Xiang inside, while Yun Qingrong was left with Xi Qian. While Yun Qingrong was busy talking with Xi Qian, Yun Xiang took this chance to ask the old man.
"You know that woman, Master Ouyang?"
At his question, Master Ouyang hit Yun Xiang's legs with his cane and shot him a glare.
"Silly child! How can you not recognize your own aunt?! Don't tell me your old man never mentioned anything about his sister." Master Ouyang looked at him with dissatisfaction on his face.
Yun Xiang's eyes widened and he took a second look at Yun Qingrong. He couldn't believe it at all! Was she really his aunt? The person his grandfather missed the most, but wasn't able to meet due to their disagreements?
Wait. Would that mean that the person who accidentally saved this old man's life was his cousin?!
Somehow, this revelation left a dissatisfaction in Yun Xiang's heart that he couldn't explain. He knew how painful it was for someone when they were poisoned with cold poison, but Su Xiaofei didn't shed a tear at all.
