Chapter 415 Li Xiran And Xi Qian (1)

When Su Xiaofei woke up the next morning, her head was pounding and her throat felt dry and itchy. She groaned and rolled onto her side, facing her husband's chest.

Lu Qingfeng's arms went around her and pulled her close, placing a kiss on her forehead.

"Good morning." He murmured, brushing some of her hair away from her face to look at her.

Even with such a low tone, Su Xiaofei felt her head throb. She groaned and closed her eyes, taking in shallow breaths in an attempt to lessen her discomfort. She couldn't remember feeling this drunk ever since Xi Qian's eighteenth birthday.

"You drank too much last night." Lu Qingfeng explained. "You should have known this would happen after I warned you not to accept Zhu Beichuan's concoctions." He added, kissing her cheek affectionately this time.

"Can't help it. I'll try not to allow any alcoholic drinks to touch my lips next time." She promised. "I just hope I didn't make a scene last night."

"You are good. As long as I'm here with you." Lu Qingfeng answered, keeping the truth of last night's spectacle from her. She had actually made a fortune last night when she beat Ning Xuan and Zhu Beichuan at poker in her drunken state.

The bed shifted as he climbed out of it, leaving Su Xiaofei for a moment. He returned with a small basin in his hands, which she immediately snatched from him and threw up all the contents of her stomach in it.

"Sorry. I feel sick." Indeed, she should have listened to her husband when Lu Qingfeng asked her to stop drinking, but Su Xiaofei had already lost count of how many drinks Zhu Beichuan had handed her last night.

"Okay." She groaned sleepily. She almost forgot that Lu Qingfeng had asked her to become his partner for the party he was attending tonight.

"Remind me not to drink anything other than water tonight." She said before drifting to slumberland, leaving her husband amused over her concerns.

Hours later, after she had gotten over her hangover, Su Xiaofei stood in her closet trying to decide which evening dress she should wear for the occasion. Lu Qingfeng told her that they would be attending a birthday party hosted by one of the family friends of the Lu family and they were obligated to show up tonight.

Even if Lu Qingfeng didn't say it, Su Xiaofei knew that this was one of her responsibilities as his wife. The Lu family expected that she would show up on such occasions to represent the family.

Sighing to herself, she pulled a black dress that exposed her shoulders and back. She then styled her hair to match her outfit and applied makeup on her face.

Once done, she decided to see her mother first and bid her goodnight, knowing that she and Lu Qingfeng would be returning late again.

"You don't need to be sorry, Feifei. You and Xiao Feng should go and enjoy the night."

Su Xiaofei fell silent and gave her mother a good look. The doctors said that the surgery was successful, but Yun Qingrong continued to lose her weight and hair as the chemotherapy progressed. Seeing her mother like this made her heart ache, but she continued to force a smile, not wanting Yun Qingrong to worry about her.

She remained silent, even when she and Lu Qingfeng arrived at their destination. A thousand worries flew through her mind, but she kept it to herself. Yun Qingrong was already home and yet she couldn't even cancel her schedule to take care of her mother.

"Are you alright?" Lu Qingfeng asked as they entered the elevator and waited for it to arrive at the designated floor where the party was being held. He was dressed in a gorgeous black suit that had been tailored to his form.

She sighed. "Just nervous."

The elevator opened and they joined the rest of the crowd only to run into a familiar person.
