The Mafia King's First Love

Chapter 86 - The Mafia King Ends The Discussion

This time, Wei\'s plain and indifferent voice changed to more serious and determined.

"Jiang Wei! Shi Ruomei is your fiance! I have chosen her as your wife! There is no place for any other woman in your life!"

"There is, and only she can have a place in my life."

Ruomei could hardly believe her ears.

W-Wei has someone else…? No...it is not possible…This is Jiang Wei we are talking about. Haha...how can he have a woman?

She chuckled. "Wei... that\'s impossible. You are not like that. You don\'t even like other women touching you. You can\'t tolerate another woman talking to you-"

"Except her."

She froze.

"My woman is an exception to everything. I don\'t like talking to other women. I am only talking to you because I want to clarify this as quickly as possible."

Fu Renshu choked.

That was savage, Boss…

Ruomei was in a daze for a long time.

Impossible. This is impossible. Wei cannot have a girlfriend...I-I am his fiance.

Shi Zhen and Shi Cuifen stood dumbfounded. He burst into anger. "Wei you cannot do this! You cannot cheat my daughter! The Old Madam has decided this marriage in your presence and you agreed to it! You cannot back out now!"

The Old Madam coldly said, "Wei don\'t you dare have any relationship with a pathetic woman! I decide who you will marry and I command you to come to the ceremony right now! You will get engaged to Shi Ruomei and that\'s that!"

Her chest heaved up and down as she inhaled sharp, angry breaths.

Wei\'s tone turned as icy as the Arctic. "Pathetic woman?" Quiet, dangerous and alarming, his voice made everybody shudder. Ruomei couldn\'t move a muscle.

"She is my woman. Nobody will insult her or the consequences will be dire. Nobody will tell the Mafia King what to do and what he cannot. I said what I had to. This discussion is over."

Without a word further, he hung up the call.

The long ring as Wei abruptly cut the phone snapped the Old Madam out of her daze.

"He cut the call. Wei cut my call! Who does he think he is! Fu Renshu! Again! Call him again!"

He took his phone back and dialed Wei\'s number again, but he was sure that he wouldn\'t pick up now.

As expected, it didn\'t. A recorded voice played.

"The number you are trying to call is currently switched off. Please try again later."

"He switched off his phone!?" The Old Madam erupted in extreme resentment. This was the first time that Wei went against her like this. She never imagined him talking back to her or opposing her decision.

On the other side, Ruomei\'s mind went blank. Tears streamed down her cheeks, but she felt too choked up to say anything. Her knees went weak and she collapsed.

"Ruomei!" Shi Cuifen burst into tears and hugged her daughter. "Don\'t cry, dear. I-It will be fine. We will solve this matter, okay?"

"What is there to solve!?" Shi Zhen exclaimed. "Wei clearly backed off from this engagement!"

Shi Cuifen sobbed.

He looked at the Old Madam indignantly. "Old Madam, how could Wei do this? Everything happened in his presence and now he is saying that he has some other woman? I will not stand for this! Ruomei is his fiance and he cannot cheat her!"

The Old Madam glared at him but with the current situation, she was in no position to rebuke him. Nobody dared speak to her like that and she was furious at Shi Zhen\'s accusing tone. But because it was Wei\'s blunder, the Jiang family was at a loss.

The Old Madam gritted her teeth. "Fu Renshu! What are you doing just standing there! Keep calling him! He has to come to the ceremony at any cost!"

He said, "Old Madam, as you heard, Boss\'s phone is switched off…"

"Shut up!"

He straightened up and inwardly sobbed.

Ah God just kill me now and let me go to heaven in peace! I don\'t want to face this reality anymore!

They heard an amusing chuckle from the back. "Hoooo. The Mafia King refuses this ceremony. Hell he doesn\'t even know about this engagement," Mingshen lazily leaned on the wall.

The Old Madam narrowed her eyes.

The Yang family.

He smiled. "Such a responsible Mafia King you have there~"

Shi Zhen fumed. "He knows! He knows everything! But for the sake of that homewrecker, he is lying to us! She must have brainwashed him. She doesn\'t want Wei to marry Ruomei! This is all that witch\'s plan to separate them!"

Jiang Weizhe turned cold at her humiliation, but because he couldn\'t reveal her identity right now, he could say nothing.

"But it\'s equally Wei\'s fault! I never thought the respectable CEO of the Jiang Industries and the Mafia King would be a cheater!"

"Shi Zhen! Don\'t forget who you are speaking to!" The Old Madam said.

The rest of the Jiang family members were quietly watching everything from the shadows. They glanced at each other and stayed quiet.

Mingshen clicked his tongue. "Tsk. Tsk. Who knew the Mafia King would bring this day upon his family…"

Though I always knew that. I even know the woman he is with right now, he chuckled.

"Are you sure the Underworld is fine like this with him as the Mafia King? Ah, such a pity."

Yang Bingqing elbowed her son. She whispered. "This is not the time to talk about politics here!"

He shrugged.

The Old Madam angrily laughed.

As expected. One mistake and everybody is questioning the Jiang family\'s capability.

Shi Zhen said, "What else should I say, Old Madam? The guests are all waiting outside. They are already getting uneasy about this. It would be so humiliating for the Shi family. Everybody would mock us that the groom ran away!"

Ruomei trembled and she burst into tears. "Mom. Wei cannot do this. I-I am his fiance...he cannot have another woman! No, Mom. He is lying. Y-You know how Wei is, right? In all these years, he steered away from women. How could a woman suddenly be his girlfriend? I don\'t believe this. I am Wei\'s fiance Mom."

Shi Cuifen nodded and hugged her. "Yes, dear. It\'s just as you say."

The Old Madam\'s eyes turned red and veins popped on her forehead. "Do anything to find him but bring him back at any cost!"

But even after trying to investigate, they failed to get his location, and neither did they learn anything about his supposed girlfriend.

Shi Zhen said, "What do we tell the guests now? Apologies for crossing my line, Old Madam. But because of Wei\'s disappearance, I won\'t let anyone humiliate Ruomei and the Shi family."

"Shut up! Enough! I know what to do. Don\'t forget your position, Shi Zhen, and don\'t teach me what to do either."

He stiffened a bit. After all, she was the Old Madam. Even if it was Wei\'s fault, she wouldn\'t allow anyone to step over her.

The Old Madam narrowed her eyes. "I will go and make the announcement."

Lihua anxiously paced back and forth in the hall. Finally, she saw Wei coming back and she ran up to his side. "Boss, what happened?"

He nodded. "En. I clarified everything."

"But their reaction? They would be super mad right? Especially your Grandma. Like I already said, Boss, I think you should personally meet your family. Because of me…"

Wei placed his finger on her lips and gently cupped her face. "Sshh. Everything is fine now. Also, it\'s not because of you. You are my woman. This is my choice."

She blushed.

"B-But the guests and your reputation...I cannot watch anyone blaming you."

His lips tugged into a soft smile. He hugged her and buried his face in the crook of her neck. "Nothing is more important than you, Lihua. It was my fault that this misunderstanding happened. I will take the responsibility and personally resolve it as you want."

"Really?"

"En," he raised his head and admired her beautiful eyes, making his breath stop. "But now, I only want to spend this night with you."

With the soft touch of his finger, he gently tucked her hair behind her ear. He took one violet earring and wore it on her earlobe. He did the same for the other ear. The earrings, once again, glimmered in the light as they dangled in the air. Her eyes gleamed in happiness as she touched her earrings.

"Boss, my gift! Can I really have it back?"

This was the first gift from Wei to her, so it was really precious to her that she wanted to keep it as a sweet memento.

"It was always yours. I was silly to take it back," he lifted her hands and lightly pecked it. "I am sorry I made you misunderstand."

She grinned and pinched his cheek. "En!" Then she said indignantly, "These earrings are mine now. You cannot ask them back again, okay!"

Wei seriously nodded.

A grumble escaped her tummy and she coughed, feeling embarrassed. "Haha, I am not hungry at all…"

Wei chuckled. "Let\'s cut the cake."
