Chapter 626 Cast Aside (2)
Late at night, Lu Qingfeng returned home and found his wife cradling their youngest daughter in her chest as she dozed off on the rocking chair in the nursery room. The past three months had been a busy period for their whole family, however, now that the twins were deemed to be in excellent condition and their tubes finally removed from their tiny bodies, Su Xiaofei was spending most of her day with them.
Lu Qingfeng gently took the sleeping baby from his wife and tucked Yanyan in the crib that she shared with her older sister. A smile curling his lips as he took in the two baby girls his wife had given birth to.
At three months old, their size was comparable to a newborn baby. However, he and Su Xiaofei were assured that the girls would be able to catch up to a normal child growth and would gain a lot of weight in due time.
Lu Qingyan - Yanyan for short, had been a clingy child toward their mother. She would always cry, knowing that her mother would give her the affection and the attention she demanded. She also hated being held by others, except for her parents of course.
Meanwhile, her older sister, Lu Qianyue, affectionately nicknamed Xiao Yue by everyone, preferred to take longer sleep and was a curious fellow whenever she was awake. She liked seeing colorful things and liked being held by her father. She also liked being coddled by her uncles and aunts, especially Xi Qian.
Lu Qingfeng would never have imagined in his previous lives that he would one day become a father. However, just looking at their daughters filled him with immense happiness he never thought was possible.
In his previous life, when Su Xiaofei died, he spent sleepless nights thinking that his life had no more meaning, but now that his daughters were here, Lu Qingfeng wished that he would be given enough time to take care of them and see them grow with his own eyes. He was willing to do anything to keep them safe.
Su Xiaofei stirred from her sleep and noticed that Yanyan was missing from her arms.
"Yanyan?" Her eyes widened in panic, wondering if she had dropped her daughter.
"Here." She heard Lu Qingfeng's voice. She lifted her head and heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that Yanyan was sleeping peacefully next to Xiao Yue.
"Sorry. I shouldn't have dozed off while holding her."
Lu Qingfeng strode towards her and picked her up gently. Su Xiaofei gasped, but wound her arms around him for support. He hadn't held her like this for a long time. He silently stepped out of the nursery room and shut the door behind him quietly.
"You were tired and nothing bad happened to Yanyan anyway. Are you sure you are ready to return to work?" He asked as he gently laid her down on their bed. He watched as she leaned back on the soft pillow and sighed.
"It can't be helped. I've been gone for a long time." Su Xiaofei replied. "I'm invited to the award ceremony for the film festival. I can't hide from the public anymore."
The film starring Bai Qingyue and Tang Liyan was already released and became a blockbuster. The two were even nominated and would compete against each other for the 'Best Actress' category at the film fest.
Over the past few days, everyone was busier than normal because the end of the year was approaching. It also meant that most entertainment agencies were preparing for the award ceremony. All the nominees for each category were already announced and everyone expected that the brightest stars would make an appearance at the ceremony.
With the two queens of Bluemedia raking up ticket sales, the media had been trying to get an exclusive interview from both Bai Qingyue and Tang Liyan as well as Su Xiaofei. From the moment she joined Bluemedia and took over the management after her mother's retirement, the name Su Xiaofei had slowly become known in the entertainment industry.
Not only because of her dazzling beauty that was comparable to the brightest stars in the showbiz industry, and definitely not because she married one of the most eligible bachelors in the country, but because she had managed to revive the brightness of the stars that were deemed to be forgotten.
"Should we go together?" Lu Qingfeng moved to his side on the bed and brushed her hair away from her face lovingly.
"You don't mind going with me? What about the girls?"
Su Xiaofei was surprised that her husband was suggesting she attend the event with him. Lu Qingfeng was the Big Boss of Lu Corporation and Lu Holdings. It was understandable that his schedule would be full of commitments at work and the last thing on his list was to attend a social function or a public event.
It wasn't like this was the first award ceremony Su Xiaofei had attended, but attending with Lu Qingfeng would surely get everyone's attention. Obviously, Lu Qingfeng wouldn't bother to poke his nose in Bluemedia's business, but that didn't mean the public wasn't curious about him.
"I'm sure Mother wouldn't mind spending the night with them." Lu Qingfeng hummed, placing a kiss on her bare shoulder. "I will instruct Nine to add a few nannies and guards if you want."
He knew perfectly well that neither of them could stay too far away from their daughters. Even at work, Lu Qingfeng would occassionally check on their daughters through the baby monitors and video calls with his wife.
Su Xiaofei conceded and agreed with her husband's suggestion. It wouldn't be so bad to announce her official return to work and let Ye Mingyu see her in public for the first time, alive and well. She couldn't wait to see how hopeless that woman was once Ye Mingyu realized that she was already sinking, fast.
However, neither she nor Ye Mingyu were aware that the real trouble had yet to come.
