The Mafia King's First Love

Chapter 40 - The Mafia King Feels Threatened

After dealing with the Lu couple, Wei promptly reached Lihua's college. But he didn't find her. He frowned.

He checked his phone and found Lihua's message.

'Boss, I am at the XXX cafe! Something urgent came up so I had to go.'

Wei didn't waste any more time and left for the cafe. As his car stopped, he craned his neck to see through the glass windows to look for her.

And he did find her. But not alone.

Lihua was talking to a handsome man in the corner seat of the cafe. And not just talking, but it seemed as if she was arguing with that man who was laughing back at her.

Wei's eyes rapidly blinked at the sight. He stared at them for a long time. Two women passed by his car and whispered. "Hey look at that couple."

"They look so good together."

"Haha so sweet. They are even sitting at the corner seat for privacy."

"Oof so lovey-dovey. Hehe, it seems to be a cute couple fight."

Wei heard all those comments with an absolutely blank expression on his face.

Couple, lovey-dovey and couple fight...these words rang in his ears. Suddenly, he felt a sense of threat he never did before. He couldn't explain it. But seeing Lihua with him made his guard up against that man.

Who is he?

Back at the cafe, Lihua asked, "Is the Mafia King really that dangerous?"

Mo Huojin looked at her in disdain and lazily said, "So ignorant. Are you really Song Jia's sister?"

Lihua flared at him. She pointed her finger at him. "You you…"

"The Mafia King is not just dangerous. He is pure evil. He rules over the Underworld. He is the King of the dark side. There are all kinds of ugly rumors about him. Dangerous is an understatement. He is cold, ruthless and doesn't give second chances. He is a man both, feared and respected in the Mafia world."

Lihua was in deep thought.

This Mafia King is such a dangerous man and sis Jia is on a mission related to him?

She couldn't help but get anxious for her.

Mo Huojin smiled. "But if you ask me then he is nothing more than a coward."

"Why?"

"Because nobody knows his real identity. We only know that he is someone very influential and that is obvious because he has the whole Underworld in the palm of his hands. That man is living with a dual identity, pulling all the strings. And someone who hides himself can only be a coward."

Lihua agreed with him.

Why can't people be like my Godly handsome prince? Handsome, innocent and truthful.

"This was what I wanted to tell you. Be careful and alert and don't talk about Song Jia mindlessly."

!!!

Lihua banged her fist on the table. "What do you mean by mindlessly?"

"Because you are dumb and definitely ditzy who likes to be in her own world half of the time," he mocked, "You will definitely say something by accident. That's why I am repeating myself."

She gritted her teeth. "You! You are just handsome on the outside! Your heart is all black!"

Mo Huojin smiled. "Thanks for the compliment. I am fine with my heart being black. At least I am not as heartless as you who flung their bag at people out of nowhere."

"..."

"So on that note, thank you for your treat. I really appreciate it," he wiped his mouth with a tissue.

Lihua widened her eyes. "Wait, wait! What treat?"

"The sandwich and coffee. Thank you so much for paying the bill," he lazily stretched his arms.

"How shameless! Why should I pay the bill? You called me here!"

"But it was about your sister. And frankly speaking, your dear sister has robbed a lot of treats from me in the past. So this is retribution. Plus, this is the compensation for attacking me. What if you had hurt my handsome face? Do you know how many women fall for it every day? Just look around you and see how many women are eyeing over at our side."

Her mouth opened in a big O.

What a narcissist!

"You have no shame at all! How does my sister work with you?"

Mo Huojin chuckled. "Because she is saner than you."

!!!

He got up from his seat. "There are low chances that Song Jia would contact you, but if she did I want you to let me know about it. I will keep trying to find any clues about her."

Lihua harrumphed. She grudgingly paid the bill, raining curses on Mo Huojin.

As they stepped out, Mo Huojin handed her a note. "This is my number."

Lihua snorted. "Not interested in your flirting."

Mo Huojin laughed out loud. "Don't worry. I have good taste in women. You don't fall in that category so be at ease."

"..."

This man!

"In case of anything related to Song Jia, you can call me."

Lihua grumbled and took the note.

Silence.

"What?"

He sighed. "I pity Song Jia. How am I supposed to contact you if I don't have your number?"

Lihua suspiciously said, "Alright…"

It was about Song Jia and only Mo Huojin was any source of information.

"Hmph. Don't give it to anybody."

"Hah. Even if I give it to the black market, it won't sell."

"..."

"On the other hand, I should warn you from not giving my number to any strange women. You see, I am weak in rejecting beautiful women's hearts."

"You sure spat poison for me though," her mouth twitched.

Mo Huojin looked at her in shock. "You consider yourself beautiful?"

!!!

He chuckled and went away. "See you later."

"See you later not!"

Lihua turned, stomping her feet. But she landed on a certain someone's chest. She rubbed her nose and raised her head.

"Boss!"

Then her eyes widened. "Boss what happened to your cheek!"

She turned his head and saw the swelling on his cheek. "Boss, what happened? How did you get hurt?"

But Wei didn't respond. He was simply staring at her, his gaze unreadable. He saw how she chatted with that man and for a moment, even he thought as if they were really close that didn't sit well with him.

"You know him?"
