The Mafia King's First Love

Chapter 142 - Literally Showing True Colors



Jiang Fai froze. He slowly lifted his gaze and stared at Lihua in a stupor.

The principal raised his brow and agreed with Lihua. It didn't make sense.

Kang Yuming said, "Mrs. Jiang. I understand that you feel the need to protect him. He is your brother-in-law, after all. But these are all conjectures. You can clearly see my daughter's face! Look how hurt and swollen her cheek has gotten. Look how she is trembling."

Kang Meifen covered her mouth and sniffled.

"I didn't even touch her!" Jiang Fai exclaimed, feeling frustrated by the repeated accusations.

Lihua chuckled. "Chill, Jiang Fai. No need to get so edgy."

She signaled a thug to come to her side, and she whispered something in his ear. The thug was speechless. "Where will I get that here?"

She rolled her eyes. "This is high school. Ask any girl. They would have it with them."

The thug mumbled to himself. "The girls will look at me so weirdly. My reputation…"

Her mouth twitched and she coughed. He went away. Li Tingzhe fumed. "We are wasting time here! I want Fai to be punished, that's it! What are we waiting for?"

Lihua smiled. "To show someone's true colors. And when I say true colors, I literally mean true colors."

A few minutes later, the thug returned carrying a small bottle in his hand. "Lady Boss, here."

"Good."

She swirled the bottle in her hands and showed it to Kang Meifen. "Do you know what this is?"

Kang Meifen froze and a gulp passed down her throat.

"Of course you do. Every girl knows this. It's a makeup remover."

Li Tingzhe frowned. "What is the meaning of bringing this here?"

She smiled as she uncapped the bottle. "How about you see it yourself when I apply some of this magical solution on your daughter's bruised cheek?"

Kang Meifen paled. Kang Yuming glared at her. "Are you crazy? Are you implying that Meifen is lying? How could you?"

Lihua shrugged. "We will see about that."

Kang Yuming anxiously looked at Li Tingzhe. "Tingzhe. We cannot let her do this. Meifen is hurt. If we put such chemicals on her wound, it will ruin her face."

Li Tingzhe stepped in between and towered his tall figure over her. "Don't you dare touch my daughter. Fai has already hurt her enough."

"Aren't we here to sort this mess out? We should know the real culprit, deal with him or...her and happily bid goodbye to each other."

Jiang Fai choked.

She smiled. "Don't worry, Mr. Li, the cheater. Nothing will happen to your princess. I take guarantee of it."

Li Tingzhe had an urge to strangle her.

Kang Meifen cried. "Mom, Dad. This is unfair. I-I did nothing wrong. Bro hit me. Why am I being accused?"

Kang Meifen was distressed. "Principal. This concerns the well-being of your student. How can you let this woman harm my daughter!"

The principal grimly stared at Lihua and said in a grave voice, "Mrs. Jiang. It will be a serious issue if anything happens to Kang Meifen…"

Lihua grinned. "I promise that nothing will happen. If she gets even a slight injury, I will take full responsibility."

The principal thought about it and nodded. "Mam, please let Mrs. Jiang do her thing. As you heard, she will be held responsible if anything goes wrong."

Lihua stepped towards Kang Meifen, but she avoided her. "Don't touch me! Mom, Dad help me!"

The thugs immediately held her arms, blocking her resistance. "Leave me!" She burst into tears.

Li Tingzhe banged his fist. "Stop this at once!"

Kang Hongqi gnashed his jaw. He cursed his sister inwardly.

Lihua said, "Stop crying so much. It will be over in just a second." She unreservedly wiped the cotton ball dipped into the makeup remover liquid on her face and rubbed it thoroughly.

As she removed the cotton ball, everybody was left stunned to see it get stained in blue and purple. Kang Meifen panicked and her heart thudded in her chest.

Jiang Fai's mouth was left wide open in shock. "You…"

Lihua laughed. "Hoho! Look what I found! This is so mysterious. The cotton was white at first, but now it turned all colorful. This is indeed magic!"

The principal was astonished to see the bluish patch fade off from her cheek. "Kang Meifen. What is this?"

Li Tingzhe felt as if he completely lost his face.

Kang Meifen turned as white as a ghost. "No...I-I don't know-"

Lihua wiped her cheek and the rest of the make-up wore off as well, making her skin crystals clear. There wasn't even a trace of scratch.

The thugs were deeply spellbound.

Lady Boss is incredible!

"So this is your injury huh?" She smirked.

Kang Meifen's face turned red in embarrassment. "This is a m-misunderstanding! I…"

Kang Yuming urgently whispered. "Meifen, what is this? You really lied?"

"Mom I…"

"Stupid! Couldn't you do a better job?" She felt a mix of frustration, embarrassment and anxiousness.

She jolted at being scolded.

Jiang Fai shouted. "You bitch! You framed me! You are disgusting!" He scowled at Kang Hongqi. "Hah! So this was all your plan set me up."

Kang Hongqi gritted his teeth.

This useless sister! Cannot do one thing properly!

To save himself, he found only one way. "Meifen! Why would you paint yourself in makeup and tell lies!?"

She was shocked by his accusation.

Didn't we plan this together?

"Bro-"

"Shut up! You made me lose my face!"

Lihua yawned seeing their drama. She narrowed her eyes at Li Tingzhe. "Mr. Li, the cheater, what do you have to say now?"

He stiffened.

"You wanted Jiang Fai to suffer punishment but your daughter framed him instead. So now you will be fair, right?" She challenged him.

Li Tingzhe wished to bury himself in the ground.

Kang Hongqi sneered. "Oh please! Your brother-in-law isn't any saint either. Sure, Meifen has lied, but he was the first to pick a fight with me!"

Jiang Fai froze. He clenched his fingers into a fist and looked away.

"Jiang Fai suddenly barged in and crashed my bike."
