Chapter 127 - The Mafia King Is Beyond Any Rules
Fu Renshu was dumbfounded. He glanced at Wei and then back at her.
Didn't the Boss tell her about everybody?
"Boss... didn't you introduce her to the family members. Not personally but as in just…"
Wri tilted his head. "Was it necessary?"
Lihua and Fu Renshu - "..."
Well she is the daughter-in-law of the family now. Of course she should know something about them!
Wei didn't care about his family, so naturally, he didn't deem it as important to explain anything to Lihua. Only Lihua and matters concerning her were important to him.
He coughed. "Well. Madam Jiang wasn't here because she doesn't live here."
"Huh? Doesn't live here?" Then she gasped in shock. "Are mother-in-law and father-in-law divorced!?"
Fu Renshu choked up in his throat and threateningly glared at her. "Dumb Lihu-"
He froze in his words and pulled back at the right time. Wei stiffened for a moment, and he narrowed his eyes at his assistant who almost let such a dangerous slip out of his tongue.
I am sorry Boss! I am really sorry! Please forgive me!
His pitiful gaze was enough to express how apologetic he was. He was almost about to call her by her real name. Thankfully, he realized it in time.
"Huh? What?" Lihua was confused. She didn't understand why the atmosphere suddenly turned so tense.
Seeing that Lihua didn't notice it, Wei heaved a sigh of relief.
Fu Renshu cleared his throat. He shot a deathly glare at her and smacked on her head.
"Ow!" She whined. "What was that for!?"
Wei pursed his lips seeing his assistant's violence. "Renshu…"
No hitting my wife.
Fu Renshu sincerely said, "Apologies Boss. I am just shocked to know that she could mention about divorce!" He looked at Lihua. "Idiot! How can you think such a thing? Master Jiang and his wife are together and spending their lovely days in peace."
"But why wasn't she here?"
"That's because she isn't allowed to live in the Jiang main residence. She lives separately."
He continued to tell Jiang Weizhe and Jiang Yubi's story which Lihua heard in utter shock and amazement.
So it's just like Wei and me!
Her eyes teared up. Wei widened his eyes and glanced at Renshu indignantly.
You made her cry.
Fu Renshu sobbed.
It's not my fault!
"How cruel!" Lihua exclaimed. "Forcing mother-in-law to live separately from the family. She must be feeling so painful not to be included in the family and treated as an outcast."
Fu Renshu sighed.
Lihua narrowed her eyes.
But this will not stay like this for long! I am here now, and I swear to give my mother-in-law her proper place in this family.
Then she asked, "What about the teenage boy? Where was his father?"
"Oh. Jiang Fai. He is Madam Jiang Xiurang's son. She is Boss's Aunt."
Ah...just as I thought.
"Hehe, so are they living peacefully too? Maybe he is on a trip?"
"Nope. Madam Jiang Xiurang and her husband are separated."
"..."
Her eyes widened in shock and she automatically asked, "Why?"
Fu Renshu glanced at Wei doubtfully. "Boss, Old Madam has forbidden everybody to talk about this matter."
Wei raised his brow. He nodded.
Wow, Boss is actually agreeing with me for once…
"Because that man cheated on her," came Wei's calm voice as he spoke to Lihua.
!!!
Boss!
He almost choked in his saliva. "Boss the Old Madam…"
"Is not applicable to me," Wei propped his arm and lazily tilted his head. He was the Mafia King. He was beyond such rules.
Fu Renshu coughed. Well, that is true too.
Lihua anxiously asked, "What do you mean by cheated?"
Fu Renshu said, "Madam Jiang Xiurang's husband, Li Tingzhe, cheated on her years back with another woman."
She gasped. But then she got confused.
"Why do you say husband? He should be her ex-husband, right?"
"...No. They aren't divorced. The Old Madam didn't let them."
"Huh?"
She slowly turned her head towards Wei and her big eyes innocently blinked. "You are the leader of the Underworld, right?"
He hesitated for a moment, but now that she had no memory, he nodded in admittance.
So like...Li Tingzhe still had the guts to cheat on the daughter of the family that rules the Underworld? Isn't he afraid of dying?
She snapped out of her stupor. "Why aren't they divorced? Why wouldn't Old Madam let them? Cheating is disgusting!" Her nostrils flared in anger.
Wei nodded hard in agreement. "Yes. Cheating is horrible."
"Well…"
Suddenly, his phone rang and Fu Renshu picked it up. His expression turned a little serious as he listened to an underling on the other end. "Hm. We are coming."
He hung up and said, "Boss. There is one important meeting that you said you have to attend, isn't it?"
He eyed him in a peculiar manner and Wei instantly understood that was talking about Mo Huojin. "Indeed."
Lihua asked, "What? What? You are leaving? But I have so many questions!" She pouted.
Wei hated to see her disappointed face. But it was important to deal with Mo Huojin too. She patted her head. "I will answer all of them when I come back."
She sighed and nodded her head.
"Don't worry. Nobody will bully you while I am gone. As soon as my meeting is done, Renshu will come back to your side again."
Fu Renshu's mouth twitched.
"Okay!"
The Boss and assistant left, leaving Lihua to herself to think of a plan. Suddenly, something flew in the air that crash landed on Lihua's head. "Hey!"
She painfully rubbed her head and grabbed the thing that hit her. It was a small toy helicopter.
"..."
"Tsk. Tsk."
A disdainful voice came from above. Lihua peered at the top to see the teenager, Jiang Fai, standing in the corridor and mockingly gazing at her. He held a sort of controller in his hand, and it was clear that he operated the helicopter using that.
"Well, well. How did you find my welcome, 'cousin-in-law'~~" he sneered.
Lihua narrowed her eyes. Then her lips curved into a smile, making Jiang Fai's brows frown.
Why is she smiling?
Lihua stretched her arm wide backwards and with a strong force, she threw the helicopter upwards and that crash landed on Jiang Fai's head this time.
"Fuck!!!" He clutched his head at the sore spot.
Liang giggled. "Well, well. How did you find my greeting 'cousin-in-law'~~"
