The Mafia King's First Love

Chapter 250 - The Mafia King Doesn't Want To Lose Lihua



One of the friends from Hou Zhenzhen's circle said, "Lanying is so lucky to marry Jiang Li. How many years has it been since your marriage?"

Jiang Lanying smiled. "Ah, two years." ​​

"Oh, that's awesome. So, so! When are we going to meet a little Lanying or Li?"

She stiffened.

"Yes, I am excited to see how the baby will look. Will he or she go after Lanying or Jiang Li?" Another one said.

"I have also heard that Old Madam is a little strict about things like these."

"Nah, not strict. She must be excited for a great-grandchild too haha…"

Hou Zhenzhen waved her hand in dismissal and laughed. "Stop it you all. We are still young. It's not like Jiang Li is running away with some woman that she has to hurry. Right, Lanying?"

Lihua had an urge to strangle her.

This cousin…

I should have brought Lihua with me. She would have scratched her face!

Jiang Lanying just awkwardly smiled it off. Jiang Li narrowed his eyes and danger loomed in his dark gaze.

He smiled. "I hope Miss Hou focuses on her party more than on gossip. You are hurt, and it is such a crowded place here. If someone accidentally steps on your foot…"

Hou Zhenzhen panicked in fear and immediately pulled her foot back. Even thinking about the pain that would shoot up made her shudder.

He sneered. He pulled Jiang Lanying's hand. "You must be tired. Let's sit at some place."

She smiled.

Sitting at the corner of the bar counter, Lai Chang had heard the conversation. He snorted.

Zhenzhen and her stupid friends…

He clutched the glass in his hand thinking about Jiang Lanying and Jiang Li together. The thought of their child made him grimace and jealous.

Fuck!

He gulped a glass of whiskey in one shot.

Just look at that bastard. Acting so cold and distant. How does Lanying even live with this guy?

He remembered the time when Jiang Li had his thugs beat him up for pestering her. He couldn't move out of his room for days. That was the most embarrassing period of his life.

He gritted his teeth in annoyance and continued gulping the drinks.

The party went on and even though Lihua didn't like Hou Zhenzhen that much, she sure liked the food they served.

"The spicy chicken is delicious~~" she praised.

Wei chuckled, seeing her act like a cute glutton. Since she was enjoying the starters so much, Wei kept on putting more food on her plate, much to her delight.

Hou Zhenzhen's friends could only watch her in envy as Wei doted on her.

Lihua noticed the women stealing glances at Wei and she harrumphed. She possessively hung her arm around his and pulled him closer.

"Hubby~~ Say ah…"

Wei beamed and obediently opened his mouth. Lihua popped a piece of chicken and said, "Hehe, is it tasty?"

He nodded. "Because you fed it to me."

The women choked in their throats.

Ah, too many flowers are here!

Even if they witnessed it with their own eyes, they still couldn't believe that the cold CEO of the Jiang Corps was actually smiling, doting and flirting with his wife so much.

Just what magic did she use that she could tame such a dangerous CEO?

Jiang Lanying stared at the lovey-dovey couple and smiled.

So cute.

Jiang Li glanced at her. There seemed to be some thoughts swirling in his mind as he looked at her in a stupor.

'She is sad because you lied to her!'

He uncomfortably shifted in his place. Since Lihua confronted him last night, he couldn't speak to Jiang Lanying at all. Every time he looked at her, he remembered that she cried because of him and that only pulled his steps back.

"Are you hungry?" He slowly asked. "I will bring something for you."

Jiang Lanying said, "No. I am fine. I am not really hungry."

He stiffened.

Did she deny it because she is angry at me for lying to her?

Jiang Li clenched his fist, feeling frustrated.

"Are you thirsty then?"

"No. I don't feel much of an appetite…"

"I see."

Lihua noticed the awkwardness and sighed.

Aish, this hopeless man…I really feel like locking them up in a room and forcing him to talk until he clarifies everything!

Wei noticed her sigh and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Aish, why are men so complicated? Things would be so simple if they confess everything rather than hiding stuff."

He blinked his eyes.

"Why can't Jiang Li be like you, who is so adorable and doesn't hide anything from his wife? You are always so honest with me with your feelings!"

Wei stiffened.

Lihua thought that he was an honest husband but only he knew the truth of what he had done to her. He killed her sister and to hide it, he wiped her memory and changed her identity. This was the biggest truth he was keeping from her.

His gaze dimmed and his heart raced in restlessness.

"M-maybe sometimes a husband lies... because he is afraid that his wife will be angry and leave him…"

"On the contrary! A wife will appreciate her husband's honesty. If he lied to her, then how would she be able to trust him in the future? Trust is the basis of any relationship."

"But what if he has hurt her? She won't... forgive him."

Lihua said, "But hiding the truth will make it worse. Instead, he should come out with it and ask for forgiveness. If he is sincere about it and really sorry for his mistakes, the wife will definitely forgive him."

He curled his fingers into a fist and smiled. "En."

Lihua chuckled and flicked his forehead. "But my Godly handsome hubby doesn't have to worry about me leaving him. He is the best husband in this whole universe, after all!"

She hopped into his hug.

For the first time, her words and her embrace felt heavy to Wei. Her expectations were like chains that bound him even more from confessing anything.

Lihua...I am not...the best husband at all. I am the worst but I cannot tell you that.

He lowered his gaze and stared at her smiling face as she hugged him. He gently brushed his finger across her cheek.

I don't want to lose you, Lihua. I cannot lose you.
