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

Chapter 582 Surreal Dream (2)



Lu Qingfeng arrived home and found his wife already asleep on their bed. Su Xiaofei had a slight fever that morning, which immediately sent him and Xi Qian into panic, fearing that the first dose of medicines Han Zijun had given to her wasn't working.

He had given the doctor a call and informed him of his wife's condition, only to be told that Han Zijun had expected it to happen and they could only wait and see how Su Xiaofei's body would react to a small dose of medicine that would force the poison out of her system.

"It's her body finally registering that a harmful substance has entered its system. Since her body is focused on nourishing the children in her womb, it would take some time for it to react to the cold poison. Su Xiaofei had once been infected with it years ago, right? I suppose that her body should somewhat acclimate to it." Han Zijun said earlier.

Lu Qingfeng sat on the armchair facing their bed and ran his hands on his face. He didn't like feeling useless. He dreaded, now more than ever, knowing that not only he might lose his wife, but he might lose their children as well.

Children.

The thought of having children with Su Xiaofei still felt surreal for Lu Qingfeng. When he married her, he knew from the beginning that she wouldn't consider having a child in this lifetime. This was why he was content to know that they would only have each other in the future and decided to support her decision even if the Lu family criticized her for it, but he would be lying if he didn't consider having a child with her.

Su Xiaofei stirred on the bed and cracked her eyes open.

"Hmm… darling, is it you? Come to bed now. I miss you."

The corner of his lips curled into a slight smile. He was tempted to do what she said, but he rose from his seat and kissed her temple.

"In a moment, Feifei."

He then made his way to the bathroom and did his nightly routine. He couldn't just join Su Xiaofei on their bed, bringing the filth of the outside world. Now that she was pregnant, he needed to pay more attention to her health.

Su Xiaofei remained exactly where he left her when he returned. Lu Qingfeng slipped beneath the covers next to her, pulling her warm body towards him. He pressed a kiss on her bare shoulder and wrapped his arms around her as if he was afraid that she would leave him.

Mornings had become his favorite part of the day, at the first awareness of her warmth next to him. Lu Qingfeng didn't want to wake up alone, without her by his side, in his life again and he would do anything just to keep her to himself.

She scooted back towards him and tugged him closer, his arms curled around her chest as she let out a sleepy sigh.

-

Weekend finally came and the last preparation for the upcoming party was in full blast. Lu Qingfeng left the preparation to Katarina and Nine while he tended to his pregnant wife's needs. Yun Qingrong and the rest of the Yun family would also arrive anytime soon as they were also invited to Lu Qingfeng's succession party.

"Lu Qingfeng, would you please take a seat? Feifei is feeling just fine and for once, stop being a worry wart." Xi Qian huffed as she crossed her arm over her chest, watching the young man who hadn't taken a break to make sure that his wife's clothes and food for today had been checked and tested.

Su Xiaofei merely chuckled and shook her head. She was seated on a couch with a warm drink in her hands as she watched her husband give orders to the Zhang sisters.

"Let him be, Qian. I'm pretty sure he's just trying to keep himself occupied." She told her best friend.

Xi Qian looked at her with worry and took a deep breath before settling next to Su Xiaofei. She really couldn't blame Lu Qingfeng for acting like this. Heck, even she felt at loss at times when it came to Su Xiaofei.

Aside from her, Han Zijun and the rest of the brotherhood, no one was aware of Su Xiaofei's condition. They might be able to hide the fact that she was poisoned, but it wouldn't take long before Su Xiaofei started showing, indicating her pregnancy.

The dull thump in Xi Qian's chest remained as she watched her best friend's health slowly deteriorate. Han Zijun had asked her to pay attention to the changes on Su Xiaofei's body for the whole month because this was the most critical time for Su Xiaofei.

Su Xiaofei's body might reject her twins at the same time, in an attempt to get rid of the poison inside of her. The clawing feeling in Xi Qian's chest only intensified when Su Xiaofei broke in and out of her fever or when she experienced a dizzy spell in the middle of her shower. She didn't tell Lu Qingfeng about it because of Su Xiaofei's request, but since then, she made sure not to let her best friend out of her sight.

The door of the penthouse opened, revealing Yun Qingrong and Yan Mei. The two older women sauntered inside and were greeted by Lu Qingfeng first, before being led to where Su Xiaofei and Xi Qian were.

Su Xiaofei's face lit up as soon as she saw her mother. For the past weeks, she was only able to talk to Yun Qingrong through phone calls and video calls. Having her mother here made Su Xiaofei a lot better.

"Is it me or have you gained weight since we last saw each other?" Yun Qingrong asked after giving her daughter a tight hug. "Xiao Feng even called me to ask for the tea I've given to you. Are we expecting good news anytime soon?"
