The Mafia King's payback

Over at Lihua's side, Meng Ya sighed in relief. "Oh Gosh! It's over! I was scared for a moment."

Lihua pressed the space between her brows. "I still don't understand. Who were those thugs? I don't know them!"

"Ah? They sang your praises, offered you their loyalty and you don't know who they are?"

"Of course not! I never met them so I don't know why they said that I was with them the day before? And they claim that I fought them and won? That is ridiculous! I don't know how to fight."

"But they said you played Ludo with them."

Her mouth twitched. "T-that is true that I play Ludo…I don't know how they got to know about it."

"They also said that you are really poor. So they really know you."

"Yaya!"

Meng Ya burst into laughter. "That was so funny!"

She sighed. "It's not funny. This is all too strange..."

She said, "Forget it. What matters is that you got proved innocent in the end. Haish we are getting late for classes! Let's go."

"But Boss said to wait for him. So you go ahead. I also have to thank him for coming here for me."

"Alright then. I will go ahead."

As Lihua leaned on a pole, a figure approached her and said, "Song Lihua."

Startled, Lihua raised her head and flung her bag towards him. But his fast reflexes made him quickly dodge her surprise attack.

"Are you an idiot!? Why did you attack me?"

She blinked her eyes as she didn't recognize the man. But she was taken aback by his handsome features. There was a rugged attractiveness in him that could make women flock to him.

Ah, he is eye candy! But my Godly handsome prince is still the best.

Then she realized the main point.

!!!

Now there comes another man who knows me but whom I don't know! Is this some magic?

"I am not an Idiot! You came so suddenly."

He was dumbfounded. "I just came normally. You are too jumpy."

Before he could say anything else, Lihua brought her palm forward. "Let me clear one thing that I don't know you at all! I don't know how you know my name but I really don't know you. Just tell me what sorcery is that I don't recognize people but they do," she put her hands on her waist indignantly.

The man rapidly blinked his eyes. At first, he chuckled in amusement but then he couldn't hold back his laughter at all.

"Hahaha...You are dumb AND interesting. Sorcery? That's some funny word you used."

She glared at him. "How dare you call me dumb? After some incredible experience I had just now, I cannot help but doubt you…" she narrowed her eyes.

Mo Huojin grimaced. "I am not any suspicious man."

"Every suspicious man says that."

He coughed hard. "You got a point. Well, I approached you because I want to talk to you."

"A trap!" She pointed her finger at him.

"..."

"You really are dumb. You watch too many movies."

"I don't consider my life any less than a movie's tragic heroine. And don't call me dumb!"

"..."

His mouth twitched.

Song Jia's sister is too... different?

"Let me introduce myself. I am Mo Huojin. I work with your sister, Song Jia. That's how I know your name."

Lihua widened her eyes in shock.

"Sis Jia? You know her?"

He nodded. "We are colleagues and have worked in many missions together."

This was the first time that Lihua met someone from Song Jia's workplace.

"So I am really not any suspicious man," he narrowed his eyes.

Lihua coughed in embarrassment. "That I was just joking haha…"

She quickly diverted the topic. "Where is sis? It's been a few weeks that we haven't talked and neither has she replied to my messages! You are her colleague so you should know. Is she too busy? Can you let me talk to her?"

Mo Huojin turned serious. "Regarding that...it's exactly why I came to meet you. We need to talk."

In the base, Mr. Lu and Mrs. Lu were tied to chairs. They looked as white as ghosts.

"What is going on? Let us out of here!"

Mrs. Lu sobbed. "Who are you, people? Why have you kidnapped us?"

Wei came out of the dark and faced them. They were shocked.

CEO Jiang?

"Y-You...why are you here?"

"You will know it soon."

Chang Fang stepped forward. "Boss, here is the axe."

He glared at them.

They dare slap our King's woman? She is our Ludo Lady! How dare you hit her?

Wei pointed the axe at Mrs. Lu's arm. "Was it that hand that slapped her?"

They paled. "Y-You…what are you going to do with that?"

"Cut off your arm."

"What!? T-this is a crime! Let us go!"

"Not until I pay you back for the slap. You hit my woman. You didn't think that you would go unharmed, right?"

Their shock knew no bounds.

His woman? Song Lihua is CEO Jiang's woman?

Wei tilted his head. "My woman has been hurt. It's natural for me to make you pay. You should understand."

Mrs. Lu widened her eyes.

'My daughter has disappeared. You should understand…'

She had said the same thing to Lihua.

Mr. Lu realized that they messed up with the wrong man. If they knew that Lihua was Wei's woman, they wouldn't have approached her carelessly.

"She is innocent, but you hit her. So I am very, very angry."

"No-no…"

Chang Fang offered. "Boss, should I do it? These flies are not worthy of your time."

Wie denied. "No. Lihua is my woman. I will take revenge."

He nodded and promptly stepped back.

They burst into tears. "No, please! I am sorry! Please forgive me! I-I didn't know that she... Please let us go...I won't do anything to Lihua ever again!"

"Too late. And I don't give second chances."

And with one quick slash, Wei swung the axe and cut off her arm.

"Ahhhhh!!!"
