Something had changed between Su Xiaofei and Lu Qingfeng's relationship since then, and it was quite obvious to those who were close to them, especially to Yun Qingrong. Her daughter had come down later than usual that morning, while Lu Qingfeng had been unusually silent during their breakfast and couldn't meet her gaze.
Even when her daughter came to join them for breakfast, her words were really scarce, as if she would rather be somewhere else than here, sharing a table and a meal with Lu Qingfeng. Yun Qingrong looked at the two, wondering what had happened for them to act this way.
Lu Qingfeng was the first one to finish his breakfast and bid goodbye to her. He then stood up and hesitated for a moment, kissing Su Xiaofei's forehead before leaving to start his long day.
Su Xiaofei only lowered her head and didn't say anything to him, making her mother more curious about them. There was no doubt that something happened between the two that caused this awkward atmosphere this morning. Yun Qingrong couldn't be wrong, as she knew that her daughter and Lu Qingfeng weren't like this last night.
"Feifei, did you and Xiao Feng have a fight? You are about to get married. Are you sure you want to go through with it?" Yun Qingrong couldn't help but question her daughter.
Su Xiaofei was obviously taken aback by her mother's question as she dropped the dumpling she was eating back on her bowl. She almost choked from surprise and quickly reached for the cup of water near her.
With what happened between her and Lu Qingfeng last night, all her shyness had returned in full force that morning. She didn't know where she got the courage to seduce Lu Qingfeng last night, and didn't think she would be able to forget how amazing he made her feel.
He was certainly grown up and wasn't the same little boy who used to follow her around. And now that they were about to get married and start a new life as husband and wife, Su Xiaofei was starting to feel a kind of nervousness and anticipation she hadn't felt in a very long time.
"We're fine, Mama. Just trying to get used to the sudden changes, but we'll be fine." She said, hoping that her mother wasn't able to see the blush that was creeping on her face.
Su Xiaofei didn't know how she would face her mother if Yun Qingrong knew just how far she and Lu Qingfeng had gone, considering how very new their relationship was.
She had woken up before Lu Qingfeng and had sneaked out of his room, returning to her own to freshen up, only to see her torso laced with dark hickeys. For this reason, she had chosen to wear a high collar blouse today to hide the remnants of their passion from last night.
Yun Qingrong nodded and didn't try to probe her daughter with additional questions. If things were still good between them, then there's no need to worry about calling off the wedding at all.
"Mama, I already talked to Lu Qingfeng about your suggestion. We agreed to free our time tomorrow afternoon. Would this suffice for the plans you have in mind?" Su Xiaofei asked, hoping that her mother would drop her inquiries about her and Lu Qingfeng.
Yun Qingrong's face immediately lit up at Su Xiaofei's words. Since this was a once in a lifetime event in her daughter's life, she wanted to make it as beautiful and as memorable as possible.
"It's more than enough, Feifei. Just… just give me a minute, okay? I need to inform them that you and Xiao Feng will be coming together tomorrow." She excitedly stood up from her seat as she quickly made a phone call outside.
Su Xiaofei watched her mother go outside, noticing that her body was losing considerable weight compared to last month. She didn't need to know that this was the after effect of her mother's illness, just like what her doctor told them on what to expect as time passed.
With only a few days left before her wedding, her mother had been spending her time and attention on it. It made Su Xiaofei feel a bit guilty since she couldn't help her mother at all. Her work at Bluemedia was keeping her busy, while Lu Qingfeng could barely balance his time.
Seeing her mother's excitement, Su Xiaofei asked Zhang Ling if she could clear her schedule for tomorrow instead. There were only three days left before her wedding anyway, and should help her mother with the preparations as the bride.
"We can reschedule some meetings." Her personal assistant replied. "But you still have a dinner meeting with other executives for the film festival."
"Alright. Let's proceed with that." Su Xiaofei sighed at that, not looking forward to this particular meeting. This was the first time she would meet the leaders of other entertainment agencies as the newly appointed president of Bluemedia.
She guessed that she was already lucky to get some free time during the day and should endure the meeting she would have with the executives of the other entertainment agencies, who she had no doubt would try to find faults in her, considering she would be the youngest of their group.
She was aware that some people still doubt her ability to run Bluemedia despite her years of apprenticeship under her mother's tutelage and Fang Yi's guidance. Su Xiaofei could only frown at how absurd people could be. Did they think that just because she wasn't as versed in business as her mother, she wouldn't be able to lead Bluemedia?
'Ah, they must also think that I'm a thousand-year-old fox.' She thought. Compared to executives, talent managers were more vicious when it comes to show business.
Also, she wasn't looking forward to seeing Mo Yuchen just a few days before her wedding. Seeing his face was enough to ruin her mood. If the meeting wasn't important, Su Xiaofei would rather not attend it and miss it altogether.
