Chapter 113 - The Mafia King Brings His Wife (3)
Everything came at a standstill. The Old Madam and Ruomei stared at her dumbfounded for a long time. They had to blink their eyes several times to confirm if the woman they saw right now was the same person they met in the Louis Store that day. It was impossible to forget her because she had caused such a huge scene that day and humiliated them.
The other family members who were seeing her for the first time were only quietly staring at her. Jiang Weizhe wondered why she introduced herself as Jiang Lixue. He glanced at his able assistant, Fu Shen. He silently acknowledged his master's order and nodded.
Wei quickly walked up to her and held her hand. "Are you okay?"
He pursed his lips in disappointment as he stared at Fu Renshu. "Don't push her."
"Boss, she was acting like a suspicious person even though…" he eyed the family members and coughed, "she is your wife."
The elders froze.
Wei smiled and patted her head. "She can act however she wants."
Lihua widened her eyes.
Such coddling!
Ruomei flared and angrily walked up to her. She grabbed her arm. "What are you doing here!? How dare you show your face in the Jiang villa?"
Lihua was shocked by her sudden behavior. This woman came out of nowhere and began yelling at her. Wei's countenance darkened, and he shook Ruomei's hand off Lihua. "Do that again l, and I will cut off your hand."
The sinister threat in his voice was unmistakable. Ruomei looked at him, stunned. "W-what are you saying, Wei? Do you even know who this woman is!?"
He said nothing and glanced at Fu Renshu. He already talked to her how much it seemed fine to clarify the misunderstanding. Other than that, he wasn't going to talk to other women.
Fu Renshu came forward. "Of course Boss does. She is his wife, Jiang Lixue."
She froze. She alternated her gaze between them and her eyes widened in horror. "Impossible!"
The Old Madam stomped her stick hard. "What is she doing here!? She cannot be your wife, Wei!"
Lihua, who just entered her husband's home, had no idea what was going on. She hardly stepped into this villa, and two people had already started a fuss about her. All her hopes of a warm welcome crashed down the drain.
She looked at Wei in confusion, but he calmly stood at his spot without a care in this world. She tugged his arm and asked, her voice a little meek, "This...is it possible that they don't like me?"
"Probably."
"..."
After how they are acting towards me, do you still have a doubt?
She coughed. "You didn't tell me though…"
I would have prepared myself for this confrontation.
Wei blinked his eyes and tilted his head. "You wanted to know?"
"..."
"As your wife, shouldn't I know what your family thinks of me?"
"Why? You don't have to bother with them."
!!!
She jerked her head towards him, stunned.
Huh?
Even the Old Madam and everybody else looked at him in shock.
Don't have to bother with us?
"Jiang Wei!"
Shi Zhen gnashed his teeth. "Wei, who is this woman? How long have you been cheating on my daughter with her!"
Lihua was aghast.
Huh? Cheating?
She looked at Wei and as she saw his serious expression, she failed to understand how this man would be a cheater?
She quickly said, "I think there is some misunderstanding. He is not a cheater. I am his wife-"
Ruomei burst into laughter. "Wife? You think a pathetic and disgraceful woman like you can become his wife? You are not! I am his fiance! Did you already forget how you ruined my dress that day?"
This came as another shocker to Lihua.
Fiance? What dress?
Shi Zhen and Shi Cuifen were taken aback. Shi Zhen asked in disbelief. "You know her?"
"Yes! How can I ever forget her? Not just me, Old Madam knows her too. We met her at Louis Store that day and you won't believe it, Dad! This peasant dared to tear my engagement ceremony dress and when I asked her to compensate, she started humiliating me. She didn't even spare Old Madam in front of all the employees!"
Lihua heard all the accusations against her with a stunned expression.
What is going on? Have we had such a confrontation before? Did I really talk disrespectfully to this elder here?
Shi Cuifen gasped.
The Old Madam narrowed her eyes. "With absolutely no class and dignity, she behaved like such a disgraceful woman. And you say that she is your wife?"
Shi Zhen asked, "Who is she? What is her background? You cannot just pick up any woman from the streets and make her your wife!"
Lihua froze. She gritted her teeth and squinted her gaze at him. She had no idea about the background here, so she couldn't decide who was wrong and who was right.
But calling her someone disgraceful? A woman from the streets?
This was something she wasn't going to bear.
The Old Madam quietly said, "She cannot be your wife. Everybody knows the rules and traditions of the Jiang family here. A marriage that I won't approve of doesn't count. Without my permission, there is no way you would have made her Mrs. Jiang. Choosing a daughter-in-law of my family is not a joke!"
Wei glanced at Fu Renshu, and he nodded. He quickly took out some papers. "These are marriage registration papers. These are official and stamped by the authorities. It clearly says that Jiang Lixue is Jiang Wei's lawfully wedded wife."
Ruomei snatched the papers from his hands and read them in horror. Every word written on it and his signature at the bottom made her tremble.
"T-this cannot be possible! W-Wei cannot marry someone else…"
No, this is a lie. I am Wei's fiance. I-I am Wei's fiance...how can he marry someone else?
Her hands holding the papers shivered.
With a hateful gaze, she glowered at Lihua.
I cannot lose to such a pathetic woman. Her of all women? The one who humiliated me? She is Wei's wife!?
