Chapter 477 - Look Forward To Your Last Meeting
"Bojing. Look at me already," Lihua tried to console him.
Back in their room, Lu Bojing was curled into a ball. He fiercely trembled as he cried, burying his face in his knees. Qingqing, who sat beside him, nudged his arm with her nose.
Why is this human crying again?
Lu Bojing sniffled. "W-what did I do…? I-I talked to Boss like that...I rebelled...Boss must be so furious at me."
His face looked ghostly as if somebody had drained all the colors from it.
"How can I t-talk to my benefactor like this…? He-he brought me home, he fed me, he taught me...E-Even though he is scary, he still took care of me…" Lu Bojing went into an endless cycle of mumbling and despair.
Zhao Weisheng was quite shocked to see him in this state. "Why are you crying? If your grandfather had been here, he would be so stunned. He was a very fierce man. You are completely opposite," he chuckled.
Lu Bojing couldn't hear him at all. He burst into tears again. "N-Now Boss will never come to save me…He will abandon me…"
Lihua harrumphed. "As if he would dare! And even if he abandoned you, so what? I will always be with you. You will come and live with me. Who needs that psycho doctor! In fact, it's good if you stay away from him."
He clutched his head. "He-he will kill me…"
Lihua patted his head. "I will kill him first before he will lay a finger on my brother."
Zhao Weisheng stared at the duo. Noticing his intense gaze, Lihua couldn't help but ask, "What happened, Grandpa?"
"... Nothing. You two just reminded me of the past. You are fiercely protective of Bojing."
Lihua beamed. "This is nothing. Bojing is even fiercer than me. You should see how he fights. It's so awesome," her eyes were shining like bright stars.
He smiled. "I can imagine. I have seen Lu Qiang in action. Bojing must be even better than him."
"Hehe, he is the best. Plus, he is also sooooo cute!"
Lu Bojing, who was still immersed in self pity, didn't forget to blush at her compliment.
"Oh, yes! Grandpa, you haven't told me the rest of it. After the Lu clan was annihilated, what happened then?"
"The Cheng family went into hiding."
She blinked her eyes.
"The Cheng family was one of the major clans in the Underworld apart from the Lu, Jiang and the Yang families. I was kidnapped shortly after the Lu clan was annihilated. Then I heard from Jiang Shan that the Cheng family escaped. They are exceptionally adept in spying and information gathering. So, hiding wasn't a difficult task," he shook his head, "But after that, I didn't hear anything about them."
Lihua's expression was grim. "I see."
She sighed. "Everything is so complicated."
He faintly smiled. "Greed. Greed makes everything complicated. Jiang Zemin's father entered the Underworld, so his roots were quite deep. It wasn't easy to overthrow them with the influence he had. Jiang Zemin destroyed the Lu clan, and Jiang Shan kidnapped me. The Cheng family didn't have much choice."
"I see…"
Zhao Weisheng patted her head. "It will be fine. This time, it will end for sure. The years of resentment had to explode one day. I tried to stop this confrontation twenty years ago so that I could make Jiang Shan understand that he should give up. It's all pointless. But he was adamant. And it has to end now."
She smiled. "It will. I have faith in Dad, Uncle Weiyuan and...Wei. They will definitely do something."
In the corner, Lu Bojing was depressingly playing with Qingqing.
Zhao Weisheng then asked, his eyes shining with curiosity and excitement. "Can you tell me more about everybody? How are they? What do they do now? Are they living well?"
Lihua brightened. "Of course! I will be happy to! Hmm...let's start with FaiFai! He is Aunt Xiurang's son…"
It was an hour filled with a mixture of happiness and sorrow as Zhao Weisheng learned the lives of his children and grandchildren. His gaze was filled with warmth as he heard her talk about Jiang Xiuying.
Their peaceful time was disrupted by Jiang Zhen, who arrogantly stepped in.
Lihua and Zhao Weisheng's expressions turned icy while Lu Bojing stepped up, alert.
*Meowwww*
Qingqing angrily hissed at him.
He smiled. "Don't be so on guard. I came to give you some good news. Four days later, you will meet your ex-husband."
Lihua widened her eyes.
"And it will be the last time. Four days later, I will be crowned as the Mafia King. The reins of the Underworld that I always wanted will be finally mine. And I will make Wei and his entire family watch it. Of course, you should grace your presence. After all, it would be so thrilling to see me make you my woman in front of Wei, isn't it?"
Zhao Weisheng's gaze was extremely deadly as he intensely stared at him. "Jiang Zhen. You should know your limits. Don't forget you are talking about my granddaughter-in-law."
"You cannot stop the inevitable from happening, Grandpa. And I don't think Lihua has any reason to suffer. After all, Wei killed her entire family. Why would she have any sympathy for Wei anymore?"
"Shut up! Don't think I will fall for your trap! My parents had died in an accident! Wei had nothing to do with him. How old was Wei at that time? Eleven? Twelve? Do you think I will believe that a twelve years old Wei would have killed my parents?"
"Tch, tch, tch," Jiang Zhen shook his head as he laughed. "Even when you know that he killed Song Jia, you think that a ruthless man like him can be innocent? You are so naive. You are willing to believe a man who is a murderer of your family? I don't know if this is trust or stupidity.. But hey! Since you will be meeting him the last time anyway, why not ask this question yourself? I believe Jiang Wei would have a different answer to give you~ This makes me look forward to the day even more. I would love to see your hatred for him growing up to the heavens, hahaha!"
