After spending the whole afternoon with Lu Qingfeng and her mother, Su Xiaofei almost wanted to ditch her meeting with the other executives for the film festival that night. She had a great time with their wedding photoshoot and loved how the photos turned out.

However, now, she felt like she had woken up from a very good dream and was being forced to face reality again. Not only would she need to meet the leaders of the other entertainment agencies tonight, but she was also expecting to meet prominent people there.

Renowned filmmakers and screenwriters would also be present tonight. Worse of all, she might even see Mo Yuchen, which she wasn’t looking forward to at all.

“I’ll be returning home late tonight, Mama. You don’t need to wait for me.” Su Xiaofei said as she led her mother to a car that was waiting for Yun Qingrong and Lu Qingfeng. The two were to return home together, so Su Xiaofei wasn’t worried about her mother being alone.

“Feifei, I know how important this meeting is for you. Your Uncle Fang would be attending with you, right? If you aren’t sure how to proceed, let him take the lead and learn from him.” Yun Qingrong patted her daughter’s hand reassuringly.

If she could, she would accompany Su Xiaofei today. She felt like there were still so many things she wanted to impart to her daughter to make sure she would be fine on her own in the future, once she was gone. While everyone doubted her precious daughter’s abilities, for Yun Qingrong, her Feifei was the greatest achievement she could be proud of in her life.

Su Xiaofei returned the smile, knowing what her mother was thinking. She also wished that she could have more time with her mother, and didn’t think there would be a time she would be ready to lose her.

“Call me if something comes up. Don’t give others a chance to bully you.” She heard Lu Qingfeng say when Yun Qingrong entered the car.

Su Xiaofei gave him an amused look. “Do I look like someone who is easy to bully?”

Lu Qingfeng shrugged. He trusted her, but he didn’t trust other people, especially Mo Yuchen. He knew that the man would be there too. It was a pity that he couldn’t be Su Xiaofei’s plus one tonight.

“Just reminding you that soon, you aren’t just a Su and a Yun family member. I will not allow anyone to bully my wife.”

She scoffed and folded her arms over her chest. As if she would allow anyone to bully her. If anything, they should be the ones wary of her, not the other way around. Others might have made a fool out of her in her past life, but not this time.

Lu Qingfeng also bid goodbye to her and left with her mother. Su Xiaofei could only watch them go before her attention was called back by Zhang Ling.

“President Su, it’s time for us to leave.”

Su Xiaofei left promptly with the Zhang siblings and wordlessly reviewed the documents forwarded to her email about the details of the film festival. Truth to be told, she already knew the entries that the filmmakers and agencies would chip in during this event. Many would try to enter this event as it was one of the most anticipated events in show business every year.

In her previous life, the award ceremony for this film festival had managed to further Ye Mingyu’s career after she won the best supporting actress award for the film she starred in. Meanwhile, she suffered an injury during the filming of her TV series and was forced to forgo all her future projects, which mostly landed in Ye Mingyu’s hands.

It was also around this time that her relationship with Mo Yuchen turned worse, leaving her under stress. If she wasn’t distracted by her thoughts and could focus on her scenes, she wouldn’t have suffered an injury during the set. Mo Yuchen didn’t even bother to pay her a visit during her stay at the hospital.

Su Xiaofei didn’t know why she was thinking about him again. She supposed that with her upcoming wedding, the painful things she suffered in her previous life were haunting her again. The fear of being abandoned by her husband again was like a worm trying to bury itself in her heart.

‘This time, it will be different. Lu Qingfeng and I will do our best to make our marriage work.’ She decided. She will do her best to become a better wife this time.

Jealousy, distrust, confusion, arguments… These were the things that pestered her previous marriage with Mo Yuchen, but she was certain that it would not be an issue between her and Lu Qingfeng as their trust towards each other was absolute.

Lu Qingfeng was different from Mo Yuchen. She refused to believe that he would turn into a different person and give her a cold shoulder once they were married. With Lu Qingfeng’s personality, Su Xiaofei didn’t think he would be capable of betraying her. Not after what he became and what he had done after her death.

When she arrived at the venue, many of the participants had already arrived, especially Mo Yuchen. Su Xiaofei decided to ignore him, but she could feel his eyes following her. It made her uncomfortable, but she refused to give Mo Yuchen the satisfaction that he still had an influence over her.

‘What’s with him now?’ She thought. Something about the way he looked at her made Su Xiaofei want to gouge his eyes out. She was annoyed that he was in the same place as her tonigh and couldn’t wait for this meeting to be over.

Once she had gotten to her designated seat, she lifted her head and their eyes met. Su Xiaofei was caught off guard, meeting the intensity of Mo Yuchen’s gaze. It was as if he wanted to possess her.. Compared to his usual indifference, it felt odd.
