The Mafia King's First Love

Chapter 379 - The Mafia King Introduces Himself

The other students had their jaws dropped wide open. They stared at Wei in utter disbelief.

"Isn't he also a new student?"

"Woah, and he is already talking back to the professor?"

"He is brave! What if the professor cut his credits? He will be in trouble."

"But he is not wrong. The professor was unreasonable to her."

They expected him to lash at Wei.

Lihua looked at him in a stupor. For a moment, she felt her heart skip a beat, but she didn't know why.

What is wrong with me?

The professor sharply trembled and gulped. "You are right."

Everybody - "..."

"It was my bad. I am sorry, Song Lihua. Please sit down," he quickly waved his hand.

Oh shit! Will I lose my job? Will he kill me? He looks so angry! He sobbed.

Please spare me. I have a family. I won't repeat it, I promise!

Lihua didn't know how to react to the sudden change. She awkwardly smiled and sat back.

Meng Ya shook her hard. "Woah, Lihua! That handsome junior stood up for you!"

"Y-yeah, it's strange. We don't know each other…"

She rolled her eyes. "It's not necessary for you to know each other. He felt bad that the professor scolded you, so he stood up for you. Simple."

The atmosphere eased up as Wei retracted his gaze. The chilliness from the air disappeared, and the temperature went back to normal.

The professor took a quick glance at Wei and saw his expression improve.

I-I am saved... Though I will still personally apologize again!

Fu Renshu was utterly impressed.

Boss actually handled it!

He had already imagined a dead professor on the podium, and then their disguise was exposed in front of Lihua.

He felt the corner of his eyes sting, feeling like a mother looking at her child.

Boss has grown up…

The class ended, and the professor quickly left. The students immediately gathered around Wei and Fu Renshu's desk.

"Woah, you were cool, dude!"

"He actually apologized. That professor is known to be really strict."

"I am still shocked…"

Wei frowned and didn't like the students suddenly gathered around him. Fu Renshu quickly said, "It was nothing. Bo- I mean, he just did what was right."

On the other side, Lihua and Meng Ya stood up. Lihua craned her neck and glanced in Wei's direction.

"You want to thank him, right?" Meng Ya asked.

"Yeah. He did speak up for me, after all. But it seems he is busy."

She sighed. "All because of his handsome face. How about we do it later?

Wei's gaze immediately caught her looking at him, and he felt as if she wanted to talk to him. But she was slowly moving away, seeing the crowd. He panicked and immediately got up.

How could he miss this chance of talking to her?

Fu Renshu widened his eyes.

Boss! Where are you going?

Lihua suddenly saw the man speed up towards her, and she slightly jolted in surprise.

"Hello," Wei politely said.

"H-Hello," Lihua instinctively said.

Wei felt his heart thump in his chest as he stared at her. He had no words to describe the excitement bubbling inside him as he stood so close to her. He had an urge to pull her in his arms and hug her hard. He wished to cry and beg her to come back to him.

Lihua…

Fu Renshu arrived at lightning speed and instantly joined them. He only prayed that Wei could control his emotions that must be raging inside him.

"You want to say something to me?" He expectantly asked.

"Oh. Yes," she smiled, "I just wanted to thank you for taking my side. E-Even though we don't know each other...The professor could have decreased your credits."

Fu Renshu coughed.

As if he has the courage to do that.

She nervously fiddled with her book. "So, thank you so much."

Lihua couldn't understand why, but something about this man made her act conscious. It wasn't a particularly uncomfortable feeling, but she couldn't put her finger on it.

I am so silly. Why am I thinking about Wei all the time?

Wei warmly smiled. "Of course, it was my duty. You don't need to thank me."

"Huh? Duty?"

Meng Ya blinked her eyes too.

Fu Renshu choked.

Lihua asked, "Why would it be your duty? We just met for the first time."

Wei stiffened.

Fu Renshu wanted to say goodbye to this world.

Boss, you will make my hair grey at this rate if I have to clean up after your mess all the time!

No wonder young mistress Jiang Ruiling sent me with him, he sobbed.

Wei thought and thought about it but couldn't find any excuse. So, he sneakily glanced at his assistant, and his message was clear.

'Do something about this.'

Fu Renshu lacked tears to shed. He quickly said, "Duty. Of course, duty! It's not about meeting you for the first time. It's just that my Bo-...f-fr-friend here really likes justice. He cannot see anybody's unfair treatment. So, he feels that it's his duty to help others in need."

"Oh…" she smiled. "That's really admirable."

She bought it. Thank God…

Wei nodded his head in appreciation. That was a good excuse and worthy of a salary raise.

Meng Ya brightened. "Indeed. You are such a responsible man! Aish, this world really needs people like you. On the one hand, there is you, so just and nice, and then there is that hooligan!"

Fu Renshu almost tripped on his feet.

"..."

"Forget about being fair, that goon had the nerve to trick me! Why do such men exist?"

"..."

"Who might this hooligan be, Miss?"

She waved her hand in dismissal. "He is insignificant to me now. You don't need to know about him."

"..."

His gaze darkened.

Insignificant? Insignificant!? I am insignificant to you now!?

Wei didn't bother with her. Instead, he looked at Lihua and raised his hand forward for a handshake.

"I am Huang Liangshi. Can I know your name?"
