The Mafia King's First Love

Chapter 378 - [Bonus ] The Mafia King's Secret Threat

*Present*

And so Jiang Ruiling and Jiang Lanying took charge of their disguise. They knew a lot about fashion, so Wei and Fu Renshu were in their expert hands. Their gazes sparkled as if a child had gotten his hands on candy. They were eager to groom them and put the makeup on for their disguise. Right from their clothes to their hairdo, they did everything perfectly.

Of course, they couldn't show up in college just like that, so Jiang Lanying arranged for two masks that would give them a different face altogether. Naturally, they arranged for voice changers too to slightly alter their voices.

They had gone to great lengths to become a college student.

Fu Renshu remembered how tiring it was. They experimented with all sorts of things with his face. He shuddered.

Getting admission as a student was hardly any difficult task. One word from Wei and instantly, all the arrangements were made with their fake student records. Only the professors in charge of Lihua's class and the principal knew the truth.

In front of the Mafia King, there wasn't any option to say 'No.'

The help from his family and the "help" from the principal made it possible for Wei to become a college student.

He was nervously twitching in his seat as he stared at Lihua's back. He was in the same space as her.

It felt as if the loneliness until now because of her absence had already dissipated into thin air.

A soft smile curled his lips.

Fu Renshu cleared his throat. "B-Boss…" he whispered, "Please don't carelessly approach her."

Wei pursed his lips in disappointment. "En."

He sighed in relief.

"But Boss. It's a surprise to know that she changed her major so suddenly. She decided to do Public Relations."

Indeed, Wei was shocked too as he learned that. As far as he knew, she didn't have any particular ambition in her career. But as long as she was happy and satisfied, it was alright.

When Wei thought about it, he indeed felt that she had made the right decision. She was perfectly suited to do PR. She had the skills to talk to people and convince them to work in her favor. She was capable of doing damage control as he saw from Jiang Ruiling's incident.

Wei felt proud of her choice and vowed that he would always silently support her from the shadows.

As the class was in progress, Lihua couldn't help but say, "Yaya. Do you feel that somebody is looking at you?"

Now that Meng Ya thought about it, she realized she felt it too.

But it wasn't Wei but Fu Renshu staring at her back.

"I think so too...But maybe they are just juniors curious about us," she shrugged, "It's rare for somebody to join last month. Mostly, all are preparing either for exams or thesis."

"I think you are right."

Lihua couldn't shake off the feeling of her heart racing in her chest as if she could feel Wei's presence.

So strange…

The professor, now who was utterly immersed in giving his lecture, randomly pointed at Lihua.

"Are you paying attention?"

Lihua snapped out. "H-Huh Huh?"

His mouth twitched. "What was I talking about?"

Lihua gulped and nervously stood up. "I…"

"From what I understand, this is your last month, and you are on a tight schedule to understand the subjects. You are new to this course. Yet you are dozing off somewhere," he reprimanded her. "If you behave like this, then there is no hope for you to pass your final exams. You can kiss your degree goodbye."

Meng Ya glared at him.

So mean!

She was about to protest, but Lihua silently stopped her.

Lihua paled and shivered. "S-sorry…"

I really cannot afford to be absent-minded.

The professor was about to say something more to her when he felt a chill run down his spine.

Suddenly, the temperature dropped so sharply that everybody subconsciously shuddered and hugged themselves as if they were standing right at the Arctic.

Why does it feel like it's winter? It's so cold! Did somebody lower the AC's temperature?

The professor looked as if his face lost all its color. He lifted his gaze as he traced the source of the murderous feeling that was raining down upon him like missiles had fired.

He froze and suddenly realized his error. He was so into his teaching mode that he completely forgot about Wei and his warning that he wasn't supposed to make any trouble for Lihua.

I fucked it up! I forgot!

Seeing Lihua shivering in front of the class and feeling embarrassed erupted a volcano within Wei. His gaze looked calm as still water, but only his assistant knew what tsunami was brewing inside it.

Fu Renshu sweated hard.

This stupid professor! Is it so hard to remember just two damn instructions!?

First not to slip up about our disguise, and second not to trouble Madam! For once, the Boss can tolerate the slip-up but trouble for his beloved? No chance! Do you have a death wish!?

"Boss…" he nervously laughed. "I will thoroughly talk to him about this after the class. Bu-but, please don't do anything now…"

Wei narrowed his eyes, and ignoring his advice, he calmly raised his hand.

Fu Renshu sobbed.

We are done for! Now Madam will definitely catch us! Our plan failed within just the first hour! I am sorry, Madam Ruiling, Madam Lanying.

The professor wanted to take his words back, but it was too late as they had already awakened the sleeping lion.

"Professor."

It was slow and quiet.

His voice was different due to the voice changer, but the pressure it carried was still the same. Like a boulder crushing on someone.

The professor simmered down. "Y-Y-Yes?"

Lihua blinked her eyes.

Why is he suddenly so scared?

She looked behind her to see the stranger that had slightly shaken her up raise his arm.

Wei's next words sounded understanding and sympathetic, but only the professor detected the threat in it.

"As you said, she is NEW to the course and has only A MONTH left for preparation. I suppose she might be feeling overwhelmed due to the pressure. As such…" he narrowed his eyes, "can you be a little more understanding of her situation?"

His next words were left unsaid, but the professor got the message.

'Or shall I make you?'
