The Mafia King's First Love

Chapter 26 - The Mafia King\'s Awakening - Anger (1)

Meng Ya entered the elevator just in time before the security guards reached her.

"Bleh!"

She stuck out her tongue.

She looked at the control panel with buttons upto forty-five floors.

Isn\'t the CEO\'s office usually at the topmost floor?

She remembered seeing written fifty floors somewhere, but here it was only till forty-five.

From the forty-fifth floor, there was a different elevator to go further up. But she didn\'t have time to look for it.

As soon as the elevator opened, she rushed towards the stairs to climb to the last floor.

Lihua. Please be safe okay? Once I meet Mr. Jiang, everything will be fine.

At the same time on Wei\'s side, he frequently checked his phone. He didn\'t know why but he wished to hear Lihua\'s voice.

He couldn\'t meet her this morning, and now he wondered what she might be doing. He checked the time.

She should be in class…

He announced. "A five minutes break."

The employees quickly left the room. As Fu Renshu entered, he almost stumbled in his steps. His eyes widened. "Boss...What is that bruise on your head?"

He gritted his teeth. "Who dare do that!? Give me his name! I will show him what true hell is!"

"I did that."

"..."

Fu Renshu looked at him, speechless. "What?"

Wei frowned. "Why are you acting so surprised? You told me to kowtow and bang my head to apologize. I did just that. Lihua forgave me because of that."

Fu Renshu felt dizzy and took support of the wall as he trembled and collapsed. "Boss... it was y-you?"

"Yes."

"For Song Lihua?"

"Yes."

It\'s as if thunderbolt struck Fu Renshu and zapped him hard.

So when Boss was asking on tips, he-he referred to himself?

He felt his world crumble.

"Boss why didn\'t you tell me that it was for you! I-I would never have...This is such a sin...how will I forgive myself...? Boss hurt himself because of me...I am a capable assistant. No, am I even capable anymore? I gave him wrong advice and I even felt proud of myself..." By the end, he was muttering to himself. "Such a blasphemy. The only punishment is death!"

He bowed full ninety degree. "Boss, please cut off my head! I don\'t deserve to live. I have failed my duty! Please don\'t show any mercy!"

Wei pursed his lips. He didn\'t understand his poor assistant\'s remorse.

"No cutting off."

"But-"

"Take care of the duties outside. I have to call Lihua."

Sooong Lihuaaaa...

Fu Renshu\'s gaze darkened.

Just wait till I get my hands on you!

He grudgingly left after Wei left him with no other option.

Wei knew Lihua might not pick up, but he couldn\'t help himself. He dialed her number, but it was coming out of the network area.

He frowned.

It was understandable if it went on ring and she didn\'t answer it. That meant she was in class.

But why was it coming out of the network area?

Her number didn\'t have any signal problems in her campus.

He dialed again but it was the same result.

Wei narrowed his eyes and seemed in a deep thought.

Just at the last staircase to the fiftieth floor, Meng Ya reached there, huffing and puffing, breathing heavily. She took a turn and suddenly crashed into someone, who was walking towards the staircase.

"Ouch!"

"Hey!"

They both tumbled on the floor with the man falling on top of her.

"Ow, ow, ow. My back…Can you not watch where you are going?"

A few seconds later, she opened her tightly shut eyes and peeked. Her eyes widened to see Fu Renshu on top of her.

For a moment she was in a stupor.

Fu Renshu looked at her speechlessly. "You? Meng Ya, right? Why are you here?"

Then he grimaced. "And what did you just say? You are the blind one here! You suddenly crashed into me."

Meng Ya snapped out of it. She recalled what the receptionist said at the desk.

\'Assistant Fu has laid very strict rules. Without an appointment, you cannot meet Mr. Jiang.\'

"You are the source of all my troubles!"

Fu Renshu was dumbfounded. "Huh?"

She looked at their state. "Will you get up now? How long will you stay on top of me like this? Are you a pervert?"

Fu Renshu\'s lid of patience blew like how a whistle blows in a rice cooker at high heat. His expression turned ugly and his gaze darkened.

He swiftly got up and coldly said, "How are you here?"

First that Song Lihua and now her friend!

Meng Ya glared at him. Usually, she would have been polite since he was Wei\'s assistant and held much higher status than hers. But her worry for Lihua threw away all those inhibitions.

"I wouldn\'t have to if you didn\'t lay those freaking stupid rules! I want to talk to Mr. Jiang, but that idiot receptionist wasn\'t letting me! Then I came here to meet him and she \'still\' wasn\'t letting me. I had to escape from those guards and come here!"

Fu Renshu was speechless.

"Are you an idiot? Of course she wouldn\'t let you. Who do you think Boss is? You think you can show your stupid face any time here and we will let you meet Boss?"

She fumed. "Whose face are you calling stupid!?"

"Is there anyone else here?" He snorted. "No wonder you are Song Lihua\'s friend. Birds of a feather flock together."

Now it was turn for Meng Ya\'s lid to blow up so she clenched her fist and punched him hard on his chest with all her might. Fu Renshu didn\'t even budge but it took a heavy toll on her poor knuckles.

"Ouchhhh!!!"

His mouth twitched. "You call this a punch? Or were you tickling me?"

"Is that even skin? Or a piece of useless rock?" She pressed her hand painfully.

He coldly smiled. "Only ones with their top floor empty wouldn\'t understand the difference between rock and muscles."

Meng Ya gritted her teeth. "And now you are wasting my time! I want to meet Mr. Jiang right now!"

"After all the ruckus you have caused, no way. Get out from here."

"I won\'t until Mr. Jiang helps me. It\'s about Lihua! Somebody kidnapped her!"

Fu Renshu widened his eyes in shock.

"What did you say?"

But it wasn\'t him who asked that question.

Meng Ya suddenly felt a gust of chilly air on her back. She turned and saw Wei standing right behind her.

It seemed he heard everything.

He didn\'t look anything different than before, yet Meng Ya felt that the atmosphere suddenly turned colder and harsher.

W-why am I feeling so afraid?

She quickly snapped out. "Mr. Jiang! I am saying the truth! A video went viral on Weibo this morning and...and…" her eyes teared up, "there was Lihua in it. Wait!"

She took out her phone and showed him the video.

Throughout the entire time, he stayed absolutely silent. The three masked goons dragged a man and Lihua in their van and drove away. He understood it with a single glance.

The target was that businessman.

Lihua got accidentally involved in it.

But the more he saw those men touching and manhandling Lihua, the more of a certain emotion was filling up his chest. He felt it was similar to the time he saw that stalker harassing her. But the intensity of that feeling right now evoked even a higher sense of danger around him.

That intense emotion was consuming his heart at an alarming rate until his gaze turned icier, darker and murderous.

Wei was the Mafia King and right under his nose, people from his own world kidnapped Lihua.

"Renshu."

Fu Renshu straightened up.

"Find the gang because right now...I am extremely angry."
