The Mafia King's First Love Chapter 403 – The Mafia King Is Alright?

Lihua stood there, numb and frozen. She kept staring until her eyes stung with tears.

Mrs. Zhang quickly pulled her back. “Lihua, don’t look anymore.”

“H-How did this happen…? Why is he like that?”

She was so horrified reading the news of his hospitalization that the prison brawl skipped past her eyes. She frantically looked around but there was nobody from the Jiang family.

“W-where is everyone…? Wei is admitted, and I cannot see anybody. Mom? Dad?” She called out.

Mrs. Zhang tried her best to calm her down. “Lihua, sit down here. First, you need to stop crying.”

“How can I… stop? Wei is inside…Did you see how injured he was?” Then she mumbled to herself, “t-this was all supposed to be a plan… then how he…it was all a lie…”

Then the door opened, and a tall doctor stepped out wearing a mask. He pulled it out and stopped dead in front of Lihua.

Lihua raised her head and looked at him. Her eyes widened.

“Mingshen…”

Mingshen tilted his head and raised his brow. “Little chilly.”

“Wei! How is Wei? What happened to him? Why is he beaten up like that? W-who did it? How is he now? He is out of danger, right?”

“There are too many questions, little chilly.”

She gritted her teeth. “Just tell me! How is Wei?”

“We need to talk.”

“I don’t want to! I just want to know about Wei…” she trembled as tears streamed down. “He is alright, right?”

Mingshen smiled. “Why does the ex-wife care so much anyway?”

She clenched her jaw.

“Go back to your college and keep up with your studies. This has got nothing to do with you anymore.”

Mrs. Zhang glared at him. “Is it wrong to feel concerned? Here Lihua is bawling her eyes out, and you are dismissing her like that? Do you have any heart?”

His gaze twinkled. “I don’t. That’s why a certain someone…” he shot a glance at Lihua and looked back at her, “calls me a crazy and psycho doctor. I don’t have a heart of mine, but I take care of ‘that’ person’s heart very well.”

Lihua didn’t understand a word he said, but she didn’t care. “Just tell me about Wei already, or I will go inside myself!”

Mingshen stared at her. He then pulled out his phone and rapidly something. “You will get your answer in five minutes.”

Exactly five minutes later, they heard rapid footsteps rapidly rushing towards them. Lihua turned and bumped into someone. She lifted her eyes and stared at the man, dumbfounded.

Wei grabbed her shoulders and worriedly checked her from head to toe. “Lihua, what happened? Are you okay? Are you hurt?”

Mrs. Zhang was speechless.

How is he here? The news said that Jiang Wei waa injured.

Wei was getting more anxious as she kept her silence. He hugged Lihua and firmly squeezed her. “Don’t worry. You will be fine. Mingshen will check on you,” he patted her head, “Don’t be scared.”

Mingshen, who was lazily leaning on the wall, grimaced and dryly looked at him.

I am not your servant!

But Lihua quickly withdrew and looked at him from head to toe this time. “You…” she couldn’t understand what was going on. Her finger quivered as she pointed it at him and then towards the ward.

“Y-You were injured…I read in the news…”

Wei blinked his eyes, and then realization dawned upon him. He looked towards the man in the ward and understood.

“You came here thinking that man was me?” He asked.

“What else was I supposed to think!?” Lihua burst out, the stress and relief and anger and anxiety finally taking a toll on her emotions. There was obvious resentment in her eyes for mistaking the whole situation.

Whether at herself or Wei; she couldn’t figure out.

Wei jolted and quickly said, “I am sorry.”

He held her wrist and said, “Let’s talk.”

Mrs. Zhang worriedly said, “Lihua…”

She simply nodded.

Mingshen just yawned. “So boring.”

He pulled her in the nearby empty ward and shut the door. He made her sit down and kneeled on the floor. “I am sorry for making you worry. That man isn’t me.”

Lihua gritted her teeth with tears in her eyes. “Yes, I can see that now very well.”

Wei guiltily looked down.

“What were you thinking? I-I read all bad news that you were severely injured and hospitalized in a critical condition and you…If you are here, then who is that man?”

“A decoy.”

“Huh?”

Wei pursed his lips and told her everything about his fake surrender.

“I know. Dad told me.”

He was stunned. “Dad?”

“When he came to meet me,” she smiled, “At least somebody still thinks that I should know things and not leave me out like a stranger like you did.”

“I-I didn’t want to stress you out and put you in danger.”

“Not telling me things stresses me out more,” she looked away, “but you always like to lie and hide things. Sis’s murder, my memories and now this.”

He stiffened.

Lihua grabbed his shirt and exclaimed. “Do you have any idea how panicked I got!? I didn’t know this was part of your plan. I…I thought you will really die…” tears plopped out.

Wei paled and quickly wiped her cheeks. “D-Don’t cry! Please don’t cry. I am sorry. I am really sorry. I shouldn’t have kept it from you. I…I thought you…” he lowered his head, “you hate me and you…”

“Wouldn’t care if you live or die?” She blankly questioned back.

“You are right. I shouldn’t care about it. You killed my sister, so why should I care about you? I should feel happy, and treat it as your punishment you deserve. A life for a life, right? But I wonder why I didn’t think like that. It was my mistake…I was at fault for stupidly panicking and coming here in a rush for a person I shouldn’t think about at all…” her voice choked, and more tears came out. “I am stupid. That’s why everybody calls me dumb…”

Wei was extremely anxious, but he didn’t know how to calm her down. “I-I didn’t mean it like that-”

“You definitely meant like that!” She glared at him. “Don’t try to fool me!”

Wei’s phone got a ding, and he saw a message from the corner of his eye. It was Mingshen’s message.

‘Don’t bother defending yourself against a pregnant woman.’
