Chapter 340 - The Mafia King Has Nothing To Say (1)
Wei hurriedly stepped out of his car followed by Fu Renshu who was dashing towards the place. Shen Yang was outside the door, waiting for them. He wanted to talk to Wei, but he simply rushed past him without even a glance. Before Lihua's crying voice over the phone, Wei couldn't think about anything else.
"Boss!"
Fu Renshu stopped him. "What is going on?"
"Mo Huojin and Xia Nuan…"
"We know. They have escaped."
His expression tensed up. "They have not just escaped. They are here.. Not just them but…"
Wei saw Lihua sitting at a table with her head lowered and her eyes blankly staring ahead.
As if she felt his presence, she jerked her head towards him.
"Lixue…"
He saw her eyes getting wet and hazy and her lips quivering. She jumped into his hug and buried her face into his embrace. His warmth and his familiar masculine smell brought her relief.
"Wei…" she choked.
"Lixue," Wei anxiously said as he looked at her up and down in panic. He had never seen Lihua seem so broken-hearted before. He quickly wiped her tears and said, "Don't cry, don't cry. I am here now."
His gaze turned frosty as he asked in a dangerous voice, "Who made you cry?"
Lihua tearfully stared at him. "I...I am tired, Wei. E-everybody is ba-bad-mouthing you. Everybody is saying how you fooled me, but…" she sniffled, "I know that you didn't. T-Tell them that you are innocent. They are lying! I will never believe anybody who says anything against you…" she trembled and burst into tears.
Wei hugged her and brushed his hand along her hair. "Don't cry," he gently said, trying to soothe her.
Lihua looked up at him. Her shaking hands slowly held his cheeks in her palms. "I know you-you must have your own reasons for t-this...Just tell everyone about it. I know," she softly gasped, "how much you love me. You will never betray me…But they weren't listening at all. Only you can prove them wrong now."
Wei stared at her. "Who are you talking about?"
A voice chuckled, "Why are you so shocked Jiang Wei? This day was gonna come sooner or later."
He narrowed his eyes.
Suddenly, he felt something bump at his legs.
"You rich, evil capitalist! You fooled Lihua and took her away! How dare you!" With his huge watery eyes, Bobo glowered at Wei.
Wei froze. Fu Renshu wiped the sweat off his forehead.
Everything is over...he shut his eyes in defeat.
Wei lowered his gaze and stared at the child who was all too familiar to him and the past Song Lihua. He felt his heart skip several beats.
Bobo angrily kept punching his thighs. "You are a bad man! You lied to Lihua and took her away! Grandma and I were so worried for her. But she was with you!"
What...is he doing here?
Wei couldn't fathom the current situation. Bobo was right in front of them and he was also addressing her as Lihua. It was the identity that was never supposed to fall on her ears.
Lihua pursed her lips. "I told you not to call him a bad man."
Wei felt his breath stuck in his throat.
The same voice that he heard just now chuckled again. "What's wrong, Jiang Wei?"
As the figure revealed herself, Wei slightly widened his eyes. Then the temperature suddenly plummeted as if it was snowing.
"Haha. That's a nice expression you got there. I am glad I could see it," Ruomei laughed, "I thought that Jiang Wei is incapable of expressing feelings. But now you proved me wrong."
"What are you doing here?" Wei asked in an extremely low tone. If she was the one to make Lihua cry, then Wei decided that this time, Ruomei was going to suffer hell.
"Just opening Lixue- oh I am sorry. It was a slip of the tongue," she smiled, "Just opening Song Lihua's eyes to reality."
He stiffened.
"Just telling her all those deeds you did to marry her."
Silence.
"But this stupid woman trusts you so much that even when Mo Huojin and Xia Nuan are right here to tell her about Song Jia…"
Wei gazed at her, the horror and fear visible in his black orbs. The mention of Song Jia in front of Lihua?
"She still refuses to believe them," she clicked her tongue.
"Mo Huojin...Xia Nuan…" he whispered.
"Right here, Jiang Wei."
As the two cops aka prisoners stood before him, Wei felt his entire world collapse in a second.
Mo Huojin smiled. "Long time no see, Jiang Wei."
He said nothing.
Xia Nuan was so furious that she wanted to strangle Wei right then and there, but Mo Huojin held her shoulder.
She gritted her teeth. "We finally meet huh, you bastard. I...I cannot believe that you have the nerve to marry Song Lihua when you killed Song Jia with your own hands!"
Wei couldn't say anything. The ones who knew about Lihua's identity and Song Jia's death were right here. What was he supposed to say?
Bobo cried as he hit him. "You bad evil capitalist! Did you really kill sis Jia? You killed her and fooled Lihua too? You bad man! You cannot kill sis Jia! She is my favorite sister!"
Shen Yang had no choice but to take him away. Even though Bobo was refusing to leave, Shen Yang didn't listen to him this time.
Xia Nuan grabbed his collar as tears trickled down her cheeks. "You killed my mentor and then you have the galls to fall in love with her sister? And even erase her memories? Stealing her identity? How low can you stoop Jiang Wei!?"
Lihua brushed her hands off him and gritted her teeth in anger. "Stop it already. I have heard enough of it."
Xia Nuan shook her head. "Lihua, you have to open your eyes! Jiang Wei has been nothing but lying to you! He imprisoned Huojin and me and even kidnapped his innocent sister to stop him from revolting. He made your friend Meng Ya disappear just because she was going to reveal the truth to you."
Fu Renshu stiffened.
"He took away your memories so that you wouldn't investigate Song Jia. If you think that these all are lies, then ask him. Let me see if he has the guts to lie today too!"
