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

Chapter 397 Fair Treatment (3)



The meeting felt much longer than Su Xiaofei was comfortable with as she didn't want to stay in the same place with Mo Yuchen. It irked her that he and Bai Qingyue were both acting suspicious today. She couldn't even fathom what they were thinking, assuming that she wasn't aware of their lingering stares. Still, she decided to act like she wasn't bothered by it and chose to focus on Tang Liyan's sudden change.

The actress was starting to change her ways for the better. While there was nothing wrong with a kind and gentle heart, having a pure one would only lure trouble her way within the showbiz industry. If before, she would cower under Bai Qingyue's intimidating presence, now she was able to smile and look at the other queen head on.

Once the contracts between two parties were finalized, Su Xiaofei watched as Tang Liyan extended a hand towards Bai Qingyue.

"Sister Bai, let's do our best and give everyone an enjoyable performance." She said to her rival.

Bai Qingyue stared at Tang Liyan's hand for a moment before giving it a firm shake.

"I'm looking forward to working with you again." Bai Qingyue replied blandly, her eyes briefly meeting Su Xiaofei's cold gaze.

Bai Qingyue didn't stay too long, claiming that she had other things to do, leaving Mo Yuchen and the rest of his team to deal with Bluemedia. After giving Su Xiaofei one last look, she left at once.

The director was pleased that both queens would participate in the film and both companies agreed to provide an equal amount of investment for it. However, they also agreed to allow a third party to inject funds to the project, allowing Song Yiran to join them in their next meeting with the rest of the investors.

Su Xiaofei wasn't planning to stay for too long and headed for the exit as soon as she could. However, she hadn't anticipated that Mo Yuchen would follow her yet again, stopping her by holding onto her wrist.

Instinctively, her right fist flew towards his direction and Mo Yuchen immediately avoided her punch and stepped away from her. She flashed him a displeased look, disgusted that she was touched by him. She made a mental note to wash her wrist as soon as possible as she didn't want any lingering mark on her skin left by Mo Yuchen.

"Would it really kill you to be with me?" He said with a scowl, but he had to admit that Su Xiaofei had such a fast reaction.

His words sounded cold in Su Xiaofei's ears, but Mo Yuchen's eyes reflected something that she couldn't comprehend, or maybe she knew but refused to acknowledge the possibility.

"Yes." She answered without batting an eyelid. She didn't stop Zhang Lan when the latter stepped forward and shielded her from Mo Yuchen.

Su Xiaofei couldn't understand why he was trying to get close to her now. Was it already about time for Golden Star to suffer a massive loss? It was supposed to happen a year ago, but that never happened. She supposed that things had changed since her rebirth, but there were still events that were bound to happen.

Disappointment flashed on Mo Yuchen's face, which startled Su Xiaofei. However, this only reminded her of the time when Mo Yuchen started to show interest in her in her previous life, to get Bluemedia from her mother's hands.

Did he really think she would fall for the same trick again? Her foolish self would happily accept him back with open arms, but she wasn't the same woman who was head over heels for him. The more she thought of how Lu Qingfeng suffered because of him, the more she wanted to shower him with love this time around. It was impossible for Mo Yuchen to have a place in her heart now.

"I see. I guess you have really moved on with your life."

"I never thought the day would come for me to see you like this. CEO Mo, it's too late to regret now." She scoffed and crossed her arms over her chest.

Mo Yuchen remained silent for a moment and nodded.

"You are right. It's too late to regret now, but it doesn't mean I cannot change the future. You aren't the only person who changed, Su Xiaofei." He said meaningfully before leaving.

Su Xiaofei frowned and made her way to the nearest washroom, eager to wash her wrist before leaving. She didn't care what Mo Yuchen was up to. If he was acting like this, hoping to lure her back on his side, then he was mistaken. There was no way she would abandon her husband for someone like Mo Yuchen. Not now that she had just learn how to love again.

"Miss Su, I apologize. I didn't expect that CEO Mo would try to touch you." Zhang Lan said as she watched Su Xiaofei's reflection in the huge mirror at the sink, while her miss was washing her hands and wrists for the third time already.

"It's nothing serious, Zhang Lan. If Mo Yuchen hadn't avoided my fist on time, I'm pretty sure I would have ruined his pretty face." Su Xiaofei chuckled, but Zhang Lan was still upset that she hadn't reacted on time. Thankfully, Su Xiaofei knew some basic self-defense that she could use and Mo Yuchen wasn't intending to physically harm her earlier.

"But I have to say that CEO Mo is acting suspicious this time, isn't he? He used to scowl whenever he saw you in the past, but ever since that night, it seems like he was trying to approach you again." Zhang Ling commented.

Su Xiaofei didn't say anything in response, thinking that if Zhang Ling could notice it, then it only proved that she wasn't wrong about her assumptions towards Mo Yuchen. Even if she wasn't married to Lu Qingfeng now, there was no way she would allow him to use her like he did in her previous life.
