Chapter 131 - The Mafia King Gives A Choice (3)

The atmosphere turned so gloomy and dark that even the guards instinctively took a step back in fear. They never saw the Mafia King this angry before. Nothing had ever fazed him, but this captive\'s words today riled him up.

Wei emanated such a deadly aura that the temperature rapidly plummeted. "Lihua will never hate me," he whispered under his breath. His brows came together to form a frown that lifted the contours of his face in a tense expression.

"She will never hate me because she will never know the truth."

Mo Huojin spat the blood that came out of his crushed jaw. "Are you assuring me or yourself? Who are you consoling here?"

Wei said nothing.

Why? He erased Lihua\'s memories to make her forget everything. Then why wasn\'t he still feeling at ease?

"Mo Huojin," he said with a strong hint of warning in his tone, "I don\'t want anybody to take Lihua away from me. Neither you nor that agent. I will destroy anything that comes my way. It\'s in your best interests that you don\'t provoke me. It doesn\'t lead to good results especially when your sister is right there on the other side."

He stiffened.

"With one snap of my finger, there will be a hole in her temple."

His body shook in anger. He growled at him with bitterness and contempt bubbling in his chest.

"I give you a choice, Mo Huojin. Do you want to be a threat to me? Or do you want to save your sister?"

Mo Huojin couldn\'t answer.

"You are right. Lihua wouldn\'t like it if I killed you. She hates the Mafia King who hurts people. So...I would prefer not to get my hands dirty," his gaze dimmed. "But I cannot let you be a noose hanging around my neck either. So, I\'ll let you decide what path you choose."

Mo Huojin stared at him.

"Leave this country with your sister and stay away from my wife."

He widened his eyes.

"Else, you have to die."

Outside the base, as Fu Renshu followed Wei, he seemed to want to ask many questions to him.

"Boss, isn\'t it dangerous to put forth that choice?"

Wei looked at him.

"Mo Huojin can very well choose his freedom, but he might plan something in the shadows to expose you."

If it was the previous Wei, he would have killed Mo Huojin without even batting his eyelid, and he would have crossed that step today if Mo Huojin continued to oppose him. But his words had managed to shake him, and he couldn\'t do it. Song Jia\'s murder was already upon his hands.

"I know…" he quietly said, "And we will keep an eye on him. If he tries anything funny, I will surely kill him the next time even though... Lihua might not like it. I cannot lose her, Renshu."

Fu Renshu slowly nodded.

---

Jiang villa.

Lihua was slowly pacing around her room, trying to figure out her plan of action to win over Jiang Fai.

"Hmm…"

She heard some soft commotion from outside and she frowned. She opened the door and to her shock, she found two men arguing with a maid.

"What is happening here?"

The two men beamed as they saw Lihua and they immediately bowed. "Lady Ludo!"

"..."

Huh? What\'s with that nickname?

They belonged to the Shadow Eagle gang who Wei recently admitted along with their other two gang members. But, the remaining two were at some other work. So, in Fu Renshu\'s absence, they were ordered to keep an eye on Lihua.

They immediately cleared their throats as they realized their mistake. "I mean Lady Boss! Since Boss is our Boss and you are his wife now, you are our Lady Boss now!"

"Oh...have I met you two before?"

Their expressions immediately turned somber and pitiful. They came to know about her memory loss and of course, they got an order not to speak up about her old identity. After all, the four thugs had met her before during Lu Jie\'s accusation incident. They missed their Ludo Lady, but they had no choice.

"Yes! But unfortunately, you don\'t remember us. Lady Boss, that is not important now. What is important is that this maid wants to talk to you. We have got orders from the Boss not to let anybody approach you from the staff."

"Ah? Why?" Lihua was confused.

"Oh!"

Maybe he was worried that these maids and butlers would bully me on Old Madam\'s orders, so he told them to stay away from me.

Aiya. Wei cares about me so much, she grinned.

The two thugs blinked their eyes and wondered what caused her to smile like that.

The maid harrumphed. "I am only here on Old Madam\'s orders! She told me to hand over these training materials to her so that she could learn them for etiquettes. I have to go back and report to the Old Madam or she will be extremely furious at me."

The two thugs righteously said, "We cannot let you in and that\'s that! Give those training materials to us and shoo!"

"But I have to explain the training stuff," she broke into a cold sweat. "If Madam makes any mistake, it would be on my name that I didn\'t properly explain the things to her. I will be severely punished!"

Lihua wondered if it would be like that.

If I mess up, why will she lose the chance of mocking me and pointing out my faults? She wouldn\'t blame the maid at all even if it might be her mistake.

She sighed. "It\'s alright. It\'s just something about the training."

The thugs hesitated.

"That...Boss\'s orders are resolute, and we cannot challenge them," they anxiously said. "If Boss says that he doesn\'t want the house staff around you, then we have to follow his orders or our heads will get rolled off!"

"... R-really?"

The furiously nodded.

From afar, another maid by the name of Xia Nuan was closely watching their interaction. Words weren\'t enough to describe her shock when she saw Lihua step into the Jiang villa herself yesterday.

Song Lihua...how? How did you become Jiang Wei\'s wife? How did you marry the man who is the cause behind your sister\'s disappearance?
