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

Chapter 115 - I Am Su Xiaofei (2)

Upon announcing her arrival, Yun Xiang gestured for Su Xiaofei to enter the study.

Not wasting her time, Su Xiaofei entered the room without a word.

The four men present inside the study turned their heads to face the doorway. Then they saw a young beautiful woman dressed in a stylish cream colored dress with a belt that was highlighting her small waist. On her left wrist, she was wearing a silver bracelet, similar to the one Xi Qian had.

Her long black hair was kept away from her face in a low ponytail, with only a few strands left loose to frame her beautiful face, and finally matched with a pair of high heels that made her look taller than usual.

Draped on her right shoulder was the strap of her small purse and in one hand, she was holding a paper bag her mother had asked her to bring with her. Su Xiaofei looked like a sophisticated and elegant young woman, expected to be seen from a prominent family.

She was far from the flashy and pompous young woman that the Yun family had heard about. The rumors painted Su Xiaofei as a young woman who loved to waste her mother's fortune on trendy clothes and useless things just to brag her status as an heiress.

With a polite smile gracing her lips, Su Xiaofei straightened her back and looked back at the old man with confidence.

"General Yun." She spoke with a clear voice, no hint of nervousness in it.

Seated behind the sturdy mahogany desk was an old man whom Su Xiaofei recognized as General Yun. Even as he was just sitting there, he emanated an oppressive and domineering aura, which Su Xiaofei had no doubt had culminated over his long years of serving the nation's army and experiencing innumerable battles .

It was enough to intimidate other people, but not Su Xiaofei. She didn't avoid his gaze and simply met it head on, not only surprising the old man, but also Yun Qingrong's brothers.

Yun Xiang looked at Su Xiaofei with astonishment as he stood behind his father, who was seated along with his brothers on the couch.

Su Xiaofei's gaze swept through the room, taking in the expressions of everyone present. In her previous life, she didn't have the chance to talk to them like this. They came to her mother's funeral, shed tears, but none of them bothered to spare her a glance and ask her how she was.

It wasn't like she could blame them. Su Xiaofei was aware of how horrible she had been as a daughter to Yun Qingrong in her past life. Yun Qingrong had taken her in, raised her like her own child, but in the end, what had she got?

Su Xiaofei hated her, blamed her for the things that happened in her life. She also caused the loss of the company that her mother built with her own blood, sweat and tears after marrying Mo Yuchen. She had failed Yun Qingrong terribly to the point that Yun Qingrong lost her life without her daughter by her side.

Up until last week, Su Xiaofei didn't know much about the Yun family. Only after Yun Qingrong divulged the stories of her childhood and talked about how stubborn and strict General Yun was, and how she got along very well with her brothers, did Su Xiaofei realize that her mother still had her family in her heart despite the years of separation.

Su Xiaofei could see the regret in her mother's eyes as Yun Qingrong finally realized her mistake of marrying the wrong man.

"It's your Mama's fault." Yun Qingrong smiled bitterly at Su Xiaofei. "Mama made a big mistake of not listening to her father. She doesn't deserve his forgiveness after all the shame and disappointment she brought on him."

It was a pity that Yun Qingrong wasn't able to mend their relationship in Su Xiaofei's previous life, but not this time, as Su Xiaofei swore that her mother would lead a happier life this time.

Yun Guanyu looked at the adopted child his daughter had taken in, and he could already see the difference in temperament between Yun Qingrong and Su Xiaofei.

While his daughter had a fiery and jolly attitude, which could easily make anyone love her and care for her, this young woman in front of him had a pair of impregnable coldness in her eyes, with such profound depth, as if Su Xiaofei had experienced many hardships in life, forcing her to build a high wall around her to protect herself. It was like he was looking at an endless void when he looked at her.

Although Su Xiaofei was smiling, Yun Guanyu could sense a deeper meaning in her eyes. General Yun had lived for so many years, and his experience taught him that a person who had a pair of eyes like Su Xiaofei's shouldn't be underestimated.

'What kind of hardship did this young woman experience for her to develop this ice-cold personality?' The old man wondered.

"You are Su Xiaofei?" Yun Guanyu asked.

"Yes." Su Xiaofei gave him a court nod. "I am Su Xiaofei."

With a smile on her face, she spoke politely to the men in front of her.

"Since this is my first time meeting my adoptive mother's family, I hope you'll forgive this one if she made a mistake today."

Yun Guanyu's brows shot up in surprise, while his sons looked at Su Xiaofei with narrowed eyes. What was this young woman trying to say?

"Are you aware that you aren't Xiao Qing's daughter?" Yun Yuanzhi, the eldest of the Yun siblings, asked Su Xiaofei.

"Yes. Although it's a pity that I didn't come from Mama's womb, it wouldn't change the fact that she is still my mother. However, the same couldn't be said about Su Haoran."

The father and sons sat silently as they looked at Su Xiaofei with astonishment, not expecting to hear this from her.
