Rebirth Of The Villainess: Young Master Lu's Wicked Wife-Chapter 584 I Owe You Everything (2)
The banquet hall was filled with guests even before it started. It was easy to tell that most of the outstanding and prominent figures in the city were invited to this event, only proving that the Lu family had a vast network that they could utilize at will. This would also mean that Lu Qingfeng would have more responsibilities now that he was ascending as the head of the family.
Su Xiaofei had taken a seat next to Chairman Lu and her mother as they waited for the party to officially start. Xi Qian, along with her father and the rest of the Qiao family was seated nearby and was busy conversing with each other, occasionally throwing Su Xiaofei a smile.
Su Xiaofei had no doubt that her father had been bombarding her best friend with questions, now that Qiao Fengying had been made aware of her pregnancy. Even Lu Qingfeng's grandfather couldn't stop himself from smiling as if he just received the most glorious gift tonight.
Su Xiaofei knew then that she was in a difficult situation and she needed to make preparations before handing the management of Bluemedia back to her mother. But thinking of how the three families couldn't wait to spoil her children, Su Xiaofei's heart filled with warmth.
Back in her childhood days, she always thought she was unwanted. Even when she found out that she was adopted by Yun Qingrong in her previous life, she felt more alone than ever. While it was true that she had Lu Qingfeng and Xi Qian by her side growing up, she was yearning for the love and attention of her parents. Now that she's pregnant, she was determined to ensure that her children would never doubt their worth and would shower them with all the love she was deprived of previously.
Su Xiaofei's eyes swept around the hall seeing familiar faces. She spotted Yun Xiang talking to their cousins and he raised his flute when their gazes met. She was relieved to know that Yun Xiang was keeping his promise to her.
Then from the corner of her eye, she spotted Lu Jinglin in a corner alone. It was obvious that she was trying not to make herself relevant and to hide from her father. Su Xiaofei made a mental note to have a word with her husband's cousin later, since she had yet to discuss the project she initiated with Lu Jinglin. The manuscript that Lu Jinglin had sent her the previous week was quite enthralling to read.
Su Xiaofei also noticed that the rest of her husband's brothers came to show their support for him tonight. Xiao Rufeng had also come, but she had chosen to keep a distance from Yan Xiuchen, even though the two had arrived together earlier.
As the emcee officially started the event and announced Lu Qingfeng as the new CEO and President of Lu Corporation, Su Xiaofei's lips curled up into a dazzling smile. It was almost like she wanted to tell the world how amazing her husband was and how he was capable of anything.
Lu Qingfeng was called up to the stage to give his ceremonial speech. He started giving a brief history on how the Lu Empire had started and how his grandfather sacrificed his sweat and blood to make sure their family business would flourish.
Throughout it, Lu Qingfeng did not mention his deceased parents. Su Xiaofei then realized that she only knew her deceased in-laws on a surface level and Lu Qingfeng had yet to tell her why he didn't like them.
Lu Qingfeng's eyes then shifted to the spot where she, her mother and his grandfather were seated. Su Xiaofei then held her breath, wondering if he would truly announce their marriage this time.
"I would like to thank my grandfather, whom without his guidance all these years, I would never have achieved as much as I have today. To Miss Yun, whom from the moment I met, treated me and guided me like a mother I never had. In her quiet and stern ways of teaching me and Feifei while growing up, she taught me how to acquire the patience a businessman should have." Lu Qingfeng said before giving his grandfather and mother-in-law a polite bow.
"And last but not the least, to the most important person in my life. Without you, I would have never had the courage to step out of my comfort zone and venture to the unknown. To my lovely wife, Su Xiaofei — thank you for making me the happiest man on earth. I owe you everything."
Su Xiaofei tried to compose her expression, aware that cameras were now pointed in her direction. Damn that Lu Qingfeng for being too cheesy and all on stage, now she had no idea where to hide her face!
Everyone's eyes were on her and it was starting to make her uncomfortable in her seat. Thankfully, she didn't feel nauseous at the moment or else she might have humiliated him and the rest of their family.
Su Xiaofei slowly stood up and gave everyone her smile and a little wave before returning to her seat. Being stuck inside her office for some time now, she realized that she hadn't been as comfortable as she was being looked at, compared to when she used to be a celebrity.
However, she couldn't help but be happy with his announcement. Now, the public wouldn't have to drag her name and associate her with Mo Yuchen ever again. This would also be a huge bomb thrown over to her husband's relatives who were still plotting against him. Even now, they were hoping that they could put Qin Ying by his side.
As soon as Lu Qingfeng announced their marriage, it was all over the news within an hour. Su Xiaofei was sure that their faces would be plastered over the entertainment news again, but she couldn't be bothered about it for now. As long as the rumors weren't malicious this time, she wouldn't give it a damn.
