Chapter 550 Tearing Apart (1)

Su Xiaofei crawled over her husband, yawning as she tucked the blanket to cover her bare chest. She searched their room for her panties, which Lu Qingfeng had flung off somewhere hours ago. She found it at the foot of the bed, chuckling as she picked it up and put them back on.

Making love to her husband after weeks of abstinence was like experiencing the first spring night once again. Lu Qingfeng had been gentle with her, although she was deeply aware that he was merely reining his self-control for her sake.

Lu Qingfeng's hand reached for her, his eyes closed.

"Come back to bed, Feifei. It's still too early." He murmured.

"I can't," she said, moving to his side to press a kiss on his cheek. "I need to accompany Mama for breakfast. You sleep, though. You were up until late last night, working."

She'd had to come barging into the study to drag him to bed. Of course, Lu Qingfeng had been reluctant to leave, not until she started stripping in front of him, then he couldn't go to bed fast enough with her.

Su Xiaofei's life was almost perfect. Not only did she have a loving husband and a good mother, she also had friends she could rely on when needed. However, she couldn't really ignore this ominous feeling that something was about to happen. She pushed these thoughts away and ran her fingers through her long hair and tied it in a messy bun.

"Feifei, I know how you feel towards her, but it won't hurt us to help her this time, after what she'd done for you." Yun Qingrong said gently, her hands reaching forward to touch her daughter's hand.

Several reasons rushed through Su Xiaofei's mind as she thought that it was a bad idea for her mother to meet the actress. The less encounters she had with Bai Qingyue, the better. Su Xiaofei had no reason to break her part of the deal she made with her birth mother, but seeing Yun Qingrong's decisive expression, she could only nod in agreement.

Su Xiaofei didn't know what to feel towards Bai Qingyue now. It still baffled her to think that she had made such a huge sacrifice to let Yun Qingrong live. How was she able to nurse the grudge she had towards her if things had turned out like this in this lifetime?

If what Lu Qingfeng said to her were true, and Bai Qingyue had died with a broken heart years after her death, did it mean that Bai Qingyue regretted what she'd done to her?

"You don't need to forgive her if you don't want to, Feifei." Yun Qingrong said, much to her surprise.

"I don't know what Miss Bai told you, but as a mother, even if you end up hating me, as long as you are happy and content, then I wouldn't mind it at all. You are our daughter. She might not be the mother you needed, but it doesn't mean she has never held you dearly in her heart." Yun Qingrong said and then paused as if she remembered something.

"I couldn't imagine how painful it was for her to abandon you...She was very young when she had you, and I didn't doubt that she was scared of everything. There had been rumors about how strict her parents were towards her before, to the point that she couldn't even make any decisions nor use the money she earned from her acting and projects."

"Have you met them then, Mama? I mean my real grandparents?" Su Xiaofei asked.

Since Yun Qingrong had been in the industry for decades, she must have met Bai Qingyue on several occasions.

"I did." Her mother nodded. "And I could say from experience that they were really hard to get along with. They always interfered with Miss Bai's work and Miss Bai even went as far as suing her own parents to leave her be. That made me wonder what kind of environment you'd grow up in if Miss Bai decided to keep you."
