The Mafia King's First Love

Chapter 385 - The Mafia King Doesn't Play Fair

The trio stiffened at once. Ji Da Xia, Wei and Fu Renshu shared quick glances at each other. They didn't expect that Lihua would ask that question. The principal was also at a loss.

Lihua said, "Oh I don't mean any harm. I was just curious."

Ji Da Xia smiled. "Of course not. I am not offended. I…"

Wei threw a threatening glance at her, and a shiver passed through her spine. She imagined getting a cut in her paycheck.

That wasn't the worst part.

It was getting fired from the job. No way in hell she wanted to lose her job in Jiang Industries. It was prestigious with something called work-life balance that many of the companies didn't have. It was a heaven for all employees. Wei, as a Boss, was simply unmatchable. People complain that they aren't happy with their jobs.

It wasn't the case if you worked under Wei.

Ji Da Xia lacked tears to shed.

"I work privately! I have my own agency," she just rambled the first thing that came to her mind.

Meng Ya exclaimed. "Woah. You are so classy. I thought that you must be working for some rich corporation. But your own agency is way cooler!"

Lihua nodded. "Yeah."

The trio relaxed and so did the principal.

Ji Da Xia glanced at Fu Renshu and telepathically asked, 'Is this how you work as his assistant?'

Fu Renshu smiled as if he found someone who could understand his pain of meeting Wei's expectations. 'You guessed it right.'

Ji Di Xia slowly nodded her head in condolence.

At that time, Wei's phone rang and he paused. "Excuse me," and he stepped out.

Lihua and Meng Ya blinked their eyes.

"Principal, you didn't mind him leaving just like that?" Meng Ya asked.

"Huh? Why would I?"

"I mean he is a student and went out without your permission."

In fact, somehow she felt as if Huang Liangshi left as if he was the Boss and had higher authority.

Fu Renshu and Ji Da Xia froze. He silently glared at her.

Why is this woman so sharp in the wrong situations!?

The principal suddenly realized his error. "Ah! Haha. You are right. He should have asked. I was zoned out for a moment," he coughed.

Outside, Wei promptly picked his phone.

"Bro! How is it going? Did sister-in-law have any suspicions?" Jiang Ruiling carefully asked.

There were also Jiang Fai and Jiang Lanying with her on the other end.

"No, she didn't."

"Good. Did you get a chance to talk to her?"

"I did. We introduced ourselves," Wei proudly said.

"That's going better than I thought. So, what are you doing right now?"

Wei told her about Ji Da Xia.

"What!? Why did you do that?" Jiang Fai asked in disbelief.

Wei didn't understand the source of his shock. "Because she would make things easier for Lihua."

"Duh," Jiang Ruiling said, feeling agitated. "You could have done that. Why didn't you offer to teach her the subjects? That way, you will grow closer to her."

Jiang Lanying said, "Yes! You missed a golden chance!"

Wei pursed his lips. "But I am a student too."

Jiang Ruiling rolled her eyes. "You could have made any excuse like you had already started studying before. So you know more about the subjects."

"But we will be together for the classes."

"But her focus will be on Miss Ji, not you."

Wei's shoulders slumped in defeat.

Why didn't I think of that?

Jiang Fai said, "Bro, you should seize every chance you get."

"I am sorry."

"Don't worry. This is just the beginning. But be cautious. If sister-in-law needs any help, you should always be there for her. That's how you need to bond with her."

Wei seriously nodded and mentally made a note.

"But don't seem as desperate or she would get frightened. You have to find the balance."

Wei didn't understand that part. Because he was the type to immediately clear any obstacles in Lihua's path. Waiting was not in his virtue.

Nevertheless, he agreed.

After everything was settled, the principal mentioned the classroom Ji Da Xia could use. Lihua and Meng Ya went on their way while Ji Da Xia stayed behind.

She quickly said, "Boss, I hope I didn't disappoint you."

Translation - Please don't fire me from my job!

"En," Wei nodded.

Translation - You are safe.

Ji Da Xia cried and thanked her stars.

Then his sight fell upon her ring finger with a beautiful diamond ring on it.

"You are married?" He tilted his head.

Ji Da Xia was taken aback. "Not married. Engaged. My wedding is in two months."

"Oh," then he slowly asked, "What does your fiance do when you are angry?"

Fu Renshu's mouth twitched.

Boss...

"W-What?"

"How does he make up with you if you are mad? What does he do to make you forgive him?"

"Oh!" Then she understood that it was related to Lihua.

"Well, sometimes he gives me flowers or plans a surprise date for me. Um, it's hard to explain. Depends on the type of mistake he made, like if he forgets my birthday or he misses our date or just some random arguments that every couple has."

Wei thought that flowers or a surprise date wouldn't bring Lihua back to him.

He pursed his lips. "What if it's a serious mistake?"

Ji Da Xia seemed confused. Fu Renshu pitied her.

"Well a serious mistake could be he cheating on me? In that case, there is only one option and that is to break up."

"What if it's a more serious mistake?"

"..."

Her brow twitched.

Do you think cheating is not a serious mistake?

She tried to smile. "What might you be referring to, Sir?"

Wei said, "Like killing a family member."

!!!

Ji Da Xia choked hard. She almost fainted.

"Then lying to her and taking away her memories."

!!!

Ji Da Xia was horrified.

Wait, wait, wait! Weren't we playing this at level 1? How the hell this became a level

100 challenge!? You don't play fair at all!
