Chapter 402 - The Mafia King Is Injured?
The expression on Jiang Weizhe's face finally cracked. Fu Shen stared at him, dumbfounded. Then he faintly remembered seeing his son, Fu Renshu, in what he thought to be wearing clothes that looked as if he was a University student.
Huang Liangshi was Wei, a college student.
His mouth twitched.
What are these people doing?
Jiang Weizhe stared at them and in the end only uttered, "What? Wei?"
Jiang Lanying gulped.
Ugh don't let him be angry please…
Jiang Fai whistled and looked away.
"Yes," Jiang Ruiling nodded. "That's why you cannot hurt him."
Jiang Weizhe blankly looked at them. "Wei is...disguised as a college student?"
"It's not a childish idea if I may say so," she stood in defence. "Cousin wants to be with her, and this is the only way. Sooner or later, she will find herself drawn to him too."
"He is Huang Liangshi to her. She won't like any other man apart from Wei."
Jiang Lanying smiled. "Trust Wei, Uncle. He will make her heart skip a beat as Huang Liangshi too."
Jiang Fai pursed his lips. "Have some faith in your genes, Uncle."
Jiang Weizhe was still quite stupefied.
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"Because we didn't want to hear any elder's lecture on how it is wrong and all," Jiang Ruiling snorted. "Wrong to disguise and wrong to lie to sister-in-law, bla bla. Everything is fair in love and war."
The boss and the assistant couldn't help but twitch their brows.
Lecture…
Jiang Fai said, "We just want her back here as soon as possible. I don't believe it for a moment that this divorce will be permanent! They love each other too much to stay apart forever. We just have to give it momentum!"
Jiang Weizhe pursed his lips. "You should have told me. I was hostile to him because I thought some strange guy was trying to court Lihua. I said things so that she won't think too highly of him."
The trio - "..."
"What would you have done?"
He frowned. "Maybe locked them up in her house with no access to get out until morning. A night together changes a lot of things."
They choked hard.
Fu Shen was calm, on the other hand. He didn't expect anything less from his Boss.
"Seriously?"
"En. It worked for Yubi and me," Jiang Weizhe's gaze was warm and smiling as he recalled the past. "We were stranded one night, and it was very instrumental in bringing us together."
"..."
Uncle turned out to be even more daring than us!
"Do you want to know the story?" His eyes glinted in excitement. "She was very beautiful that day. Though Yubi looks beautiful everyday," he seriously nodded.
They grimaced.
Why are you starting with your love story out of nowhere!?
Jiang Ruiling smiled. "We will surely love to hear that."
He beamed. "So as it-"
"Some other day."
He pursed his lips. "I see."
Jiang Lanying brought them on track. "A-anyway! Uncle, so you really don't mind this, right? You aren't really angry at us, right?"
He tilted his head. "Why would I? I also want Lihua back. Are you sure it will work?"
"This is the only way we see now. There is no harm in trying."
He nodded.
Fu Shen asked, "Is it possible that my son is also a part of this?"
"Of course! Otherwise, my cousin would have already foiled all the plans by now! He gets way too excited when it's about sister-in-law. Fu Renshu is there to keep him in check."
He coughed. "I see."
A crisis finally ended in the nick of time, and thankfully, Jiang Weizhe was on their side.
But another crisis was just about to start in central jail, where Wei was apparently spending the night. The prisoners were given some odd jobs to do, and Wei was one of them.
When it was time for dinner, everybody started heading back. Wei started walking towards the mess when three men stopped his way.
Wei paused and raised his brow at them.
"Whatcha looking at aye?" A tall, bald man menacingly spat. He had crooked teeth and a large scar that ran through his left eye.
Wei said nothing.
"You think you are anything special just coz you got that face?"
He said nothing.
"You are one son of a bitch, aren't ya? Look at you, acting all smug."
He said nothing.
He sneered. "It will be fun if we play with your face a bit. Smash it up all nice and good. Then you will have nothing to be so arrogant about."
He said nothing.
"You are new here, so you should know the rules. That is, I am the rule here."
He said nothing.
His silence agitated the bald man. "You…"
He pumped his fingers into a lethal fist and aimed straight at his face.

The news blasted in the media like crazy the following morning.
Jiang Wei was hospitalized with grave injuries on his body. A big fight had ensued in the prison with a brawl with three prisoners, and Wei was heavily injured with severe wounds.
Lihua collapsed on the couch as she blankly read the news. Tears automatically streamed down her cheeks, and she felt breathless.
Hospital…? Wasn't it all a facade? Then why...
Her face paled. She suddenly jumped on her feet and rushed outside. She met Mrs. Zhang on the way, who was just coming to meet her.
"Lihua!"
"Aunt! T-the news...Did you see the news? W-Wei is in hospital...He is...he is injured. I need to go…"
"Lihua, wait! I will come with you. If you run like this, you will definitely get into an accident! Don't forget that you are pregnant."
She froze. But then she burst into tears. "Aunt...Wei…"
She hugged her and gently patted her head. No matter what the circumstances were between them, she knew that Lihua wouldn't be able to stop herself.
"He will be alright. Don't cry, okay?"
---
"Where is Jiang Wei admitted?" Lihua asked the nurse as soon as she reached.
The nurse receptionist checked the computer and said, "Third floor, Mam. ICU no. 302."
Mrs. Zhang and Lihua went up the elevator. It stopped on the third floor with a ding.
Her legs trembled as she came closer. Through the round glass window, Lihua peeked inside, and her blood ran cold.
Wei was on lying on the bed with numerous tubes attached to him. His face was bloody and a mess.
Wei....?
