The Mafia King's First Love

Chapter 83 - The Mafia King Who Pampers His Woman

Lihua replayed his words in her mind. But this time, she imagined Wei talking about her.

'She will always be mine.'

'She can be as rude and hurtful as she likes.'

'I will give her everything I have.'

'She doesn't need to find another man to pamper her because I will pamper her to no end.'

'She is the only woman for me I will ever accept. If it's not her, then it cannot be anybody else either!"

Suddenly, she felt as if blood rushed up at full speed, making her face bright red. Imaginary steam escaped her ears. She felt her heart loudly hammer in her chest. Her cheeks heated up to finally realize that Wei's words were meant for her.

Wei gently pulled her face and kissed her forehead. The soft sensation of his lips made her feel as if she was floating in the air.

He lowered his gaze and stared at her beautiful, misty eyes that shone under the faint violet light.

"I told you. I don't talk to other women. I don't talk about them either. I don't touch them. The only woman whom I will ever touch and kiss and talk about will always be you."

She trembled.

Lihua didn't know how to contain these overwhelming feelings attacking every cell of her body. She raised her head. His sincere gaze shook her heart.

I am really so dumb! Bobo is right! How could I have misunderstood my Boss? How could I think that Boss hurt me? Idiot, idiot, you are just a big idiot, Song Lihua!

"E-En…" she guiltily said, "I am sorry for misunderstanding you, Boss."

Wei pulled her into a warm hug. "Don't apologize. I only like it when you smile. You can think or do as you wish. I won't be angry or disappointed with you."

Lihua felt an urge to cry.

How could any man pamper his woman so much? Even though I misunderstood him and lied to him, he didn't get mad at me at all.

He said I can do as I wish. So if I lie to him again, he won't misunderstand me? How can anybody trust so deeply? After all, it's only been a month since we've known each other...

Lihua always knew that under his stiff and impassive demeanor, Wei was absolutely adorable and a kind person. But his words tonight made such a deep impact in her heart that she felt it impossible to contain her love for him. Her heart seemed like a small place now to accommodate her overwhelmingly budding feelings for him.

They stayed silent like that for a few minutes.

Lihua faced him and grinned. "Haha. I always wondered why you would agree to take that crease woman as your wife? I was right! You have good taste after all! Hahaha!"

Wei's lips tugged into a relieved smile as he saw her laugh. After so many days, he felt for the first time now that they were talking just how they always used to. As the misunderstandings cleared up, so did all their inhibitions.

He curiously asked, "Why do you call her a crease woman?"

Lihua fumed as she thought back to that time in the store. "Boss, you won't believe just how mean and rude a woman she is!"

As she grumbled away all her complaints to him, his gaze darkened to know that Shi Ruomei acted rudely to Lihua.

"And your Grandma! She humiliated Uncle so harshly! How could any mother be so mean to her own son?"

Wei didn't comment on that. He wasn't affected much. He never talked to Jiang Weizhe because Jiang Weizhe always refrained from talking to him. He had already made it clear way back in his childhood that Wei would neither talk to nor meet him and his mother, Jiang Yubi.

"Uncle is so sweet!" She pouted. "How can anybody have the heart to yell at him like that?"

His mouth twitched. "Sweet? Sweeter than me too?" He questioned.

"..."

Boss is competing against his own father…

She sighed. She giggled and pinched his cheeks. "Of course Boss is sweeter!"

Joy bloomed in his heart and he nodded.

"But now I understand why Boss is so handsome and cute! It's because of genes! Damn gene power is amazing. Uncle is so adorable so his son is adorable too!"

Wei tilted his head.

From how much he knew about his father, he never got the impression that he was adorable.

"I see. It must be true if you are saying it."

"Hehe," she clapped her hands once, "And I am so glad you didn't choose Shi Ruomei. She is rude and would have made you so poor!"

Wei smiled and cupped her cheek. "En. I will always choose you."

She blushed.

"Shall we cut the cake then?"

She felt emotional. "En. Boss, so you always remembered today...I-I thought I was the only one…"

"I will never forget anything related to you."

That was it. Lihua died as her brain was overloaded due to her Boss's flirting.

Ahhhh I must have done some really good deeds in my past life that I met Boss in this life, she sobbed.

As all the misunderstandings cleared out, she suddenly remembered a very important point.

"Boss, what about the engagement?"

---

Jiang villa.

It was just two minutes to seven now. Shi Cuifen smiled as she held her daughter's hand. "It's time, dear."

Shi Zhen rushed into her room and asked, "Is Ruomei ready? We shouldn't be late."

Ruomei giggled and nodded. "Yes, Dad."

Shi Zhen was stunned. Ruomei looked delicate and beautiful just like a flower. He grinned and cupped her face. "My daughter looks so beautiful. All the bachelors in the ceremony would feel so jealous of Wei."

Roumei blushed. "Dad you…"

He said, "Let's go quickly. We don't want to offend the Old Madam by being even a minute late."

They nodded. She held Shi Zhen's hand and headed out.

As they stepped down the stairs towards the main stage, the attention of all the guests instantly landed on the young heiress of the Shi family. As she elegantly and gracefully walked down, everybody held their breaths. Just like Shi Zhen predicted, the bachelors indeed felt envious of Wei's luck for having such a beautiful woman as his future wife.

Giddiness filled her heart as Shi Ruomei finally stood at the spot where she would exchange rings with Wei. She looked around but found that Wei was yet to come.

Strange. I thought Wei would be already here. He must be coming at any moment, she eagerly thought.

Standing at a corner, Fu Renshu wiped his forehead that was drenched in sweat. The clock had struck seven. Ruomei was already here, but of course, Wei wasn't and he wouldn't be either.

The Old Madam would question me at any moment. He rushed up to Jiang Weizhe's side and urgently said, "Master, what should we do now?"

Fu Shen, his loyal assistant, was respectfully standing behind Jiang Weizhe. He narrowed his eyes. "Keep your distance from Master Jiang! Don't act so pitiful. It's a disgrace!"

Dad, it is not the time for rules and etiquette! He screamed in his head.

As opposed to how badly Fu Renshu was panicking, Jiang Weizhe was calm and as serene as still water. "Whatever happens, happens."

"..."

You are way too calm about this Master!

"Shouldn't we help him?" The urgency in his voice was unmistakable.

Jiang Weizhe raised his brow. "What did he have to say?"

"Boss was ready to call the Old Madam and say that he wouldn't come to the ceremony"

"What is the problem?" He tilted his head. "He is telling the truth, isn't he?"

"..."

Ahhh! This father-son pair are too blunt for their own good!

Suddenly, the atmosphere turned stiff and Fu Renshu immediately understood who had arrived.

The expression on the Old Madam's face was terrible. She could hardly contain her anger.

"Fu Renshu," she clenched her jaw, "I was clear that Wei should be down at exactly seven PM. Whole two minutes have gone past now and he still isn't here! Where is Wei!?"

Her stare was so deadly and threatening that it could make anyone piss their pants.

A gulp passed down his throat. "Old Madam…"

"Don't stay silent! Where is Wei? Nobody in the Jiang family has ever been late. How dare he break this tradition!?"

"Boss is stuck in traffic!"

The Old Madam's gaze darkened. "Traffic?" She gritted her teeth. "Do you think I care about traffic at this point!?"

Fu Shen stiffened.

Idiot son. Instead of lying, just tell the truth. It's not like you can hide this forever.

His cold, outward countenance didn't change though.

The Old Madam glowered at Jiang Weizhe. "Look what your pathetic son is doing! He is making a fool of the Jiang family in front of everyone!"

Jiang Weizhe, as usual, didn't bother to comment.

She got even more irked by this. "Fu Renshu. Call Wei right now! I want to talk to him."

Fu Renshu froze.
