The Mafia King's First Love

Chapter 46 - The Mafia King Doesn't Let Lihua Go

The stoic and impassive man, who seemed indifferent in the supermarket just now, gently smiled at his wife. It was as if his cold and emotionless countenance was just an illusion.

But at Wei's mention, he turned somber. "No."

The woman lowered her gaze sadly as she pursed her lips. Jiang Weizhe hated to see his wife so downcast. He gently pulled her into his arms and kissed her hair.

"But I met the woman in question, Yubi."

Her crestfallen face brightened up. "Oh! So? Who is she?"

"Song Lihua."

Jiang Yubi rapidly blinked her eyes. "Song Lihua you mean...that Song family?"

He silently nodded.

Her brows furrowed in a complicated expression. "I see…"

But then she shook her head. "It doesn't matter to me though. The situation is a little difficult but... anyway, how did you find her? What did you two talk about?"

Jiang Weizhe said, "She is dangerously smart."

"How?"

"She got suspicious about Wei and my relationship. She asked if I knew Jiang Wei."

Her eyes widened in surprise. She gave it a thought. "It's really not that difficult. After all, Wei strikingly resembles you."

"But still. She seemed very sure," he quietly said.

"What happened that made her so sure?"

"Nothing. She gave me the chocolate chips cookie packet and some candles."

Jiang Yubi was confused. "So?"

"Then I handed a cheque to her as her reward. After that, she asked me the question." His gaze squinted thoughtfully. "I wonder how did she get the clue?"

His wife's mouth violently twitched.

I understand how she got the connection…

She helplessly laughed.

Jiang Weizhe's gaze softened. "Why are you laughing?"

"Nothing. You father-son are really the same."

His lips straightened in a thin line. He never really liked her talking about Wei.

"Oh yes! You said you brought the cookies!"

"En. It was the last packet and she had it. But she still gave it to me."

Her lips curved into a beautiful smile. "Ah, she is so kind."

Then her gaze fell onto the small candles and her expression bloomed into pure bliss. "These candles are gorgeous."

"She said you might like them."

"Ah? How did she know I would like them?"

"I told her that you like artistic things. Then she looked as if she got a great idea and handed me these."

Jiang Yubi was dumbfounded. "You talked to her that much? I thought you don't like talking to other people."

This came as a massive shock to her. Just like Wei, Jiang Weizhe wasn't a talkative man either. They hardly spoke as if their words were gold.

Jiang Weizhe softly smiled. "I couldn't help it. We were talking about you. She was interested in knowing about you."

"..."

So you only talked to her because it was about me.

She softly smiled. "But I think I know what made Wei attach to her. He resembles you even personality wise."

"Yubi…" There was a slight hint of warning in his tone though he didn't get any stricter. "Don't talk anymore about him. We should go back."

Jiang Yubi pursed her lips.

"For how long can I not meet him?" She mumbled.

Jiang Weizhe stiffened at her question that he heard clearly. He quietly avoided her and looked away. "Go back." He said to the driver.

As Lihua and Wei reached home, she kept her part of the shopping bags at home while she quickly headed for Wei's apartment again.

"Boss, did you enjoy shopping? It was your first time. How did you feel?" She looked at him eagerly and hopped around him like a bunny.

Wei stared at the sparkles in her eyes and felt mesmerized. "En…"

She beamed. "What did you feel? Did you like it?"

Wei thought back to how he spent time with Lihua. Indeed, he found it really interesting to learn shopping with her like how commoners do.

"I like it," he softly smiled.

This new experience tugged a warm feeling in his chest. He didn't mind going shopping with her like this every day.

After all, you took me on a shopping date because I am your man, he thought.

If Lihua heard what he had been thinking, she would have coughed blood until she collapsed dead.

Lihua clapped her hands once in excitement.

Success!

"Did it trigger something in you? Like any kind of feeling? Even if it is something small, you can tell me."

Wei nodded. "Respect for the poor. Indeed they have great flexibility to settle for cheaper products."

"..."

Lihua didn't know how to retort.

It will take a while to remove that poor notion from his head, don't I?

She sighed. "Anyway. Boss, look what I brought. I took a bunch of stuff to decorate your house," she grinned."

Wei glanced at all the showpieces and decorative stuff in her bag. "You brought this all for me?"

"En. A house should be all nice and warm. Right now, your apartment is too plain. So we will decorate it! Aren't you excited?"

"We will decorate it together?" He tilted his head.

"Of course! I mean that is if you need my help…" she flustered.

Maybe I got too excited. I shouldn't forget that he is my Boss...

Wei imagined how it would look like decorating the house with her. Once again, he a fuzzy feeling enveloped his chest. "En. I want to decorate it with you."

He was never interested in such things, but if it meant spending more time with Lihua, he was more than happy to oblige. It was faint, but his robotic face brightened a bit.

Yes! Ah, my Godly handsome prince looks so adorable!

"Great! So we will start Mission Decoration tomorrow! It will be so much fun haha!"

She looked at the time. "Oh, it's so late already. I should head back."

Wei pursed his lips.

Leaving?

He didn't like the feeling. A distaste settled in him at that thought. He felt as if time passed by too quickly. With Lihua, he slowly started to feel that no matter how much time he spent with her, it would be always too short. He stared at her with a complicated gaze.

"Good night Boss!"

As she turned, Wei quickly held her wrist and pulled her. Startled, she looked up at him. His serious gaze penetrated hers. She felt her breath get stuck in her throat as his handsome face closed in. His sexy voice whispered huskily, "Don't leave."
