The Mafia King's First Love Chapter 160 – On Towards Victory!

Jiang Xiurang froze. She slowly lifted her head in horror.

G-go back to Li Tingzhe…?

She was stunned. All those painful memories flashed in her mind.

Is she really that ruthless?

It was as if she got this golden chance to get rid of her.

Her mind was blank. She had never expected that the Old Madam would make such a demand.

Jiang Fai yelled. “You damn old hag! How dare you say that! Do you have some screws loose in your head!? You want Mom and me to go back to that man who destroyed everything for us!?”

There was utter silence. Ruomei was shocked by his speech. She never thought that he would dare talk back so rudely with such crass language.

The Old Madam’s gaze darkened and her expression turned extremely severe. The air got chilly as she quietly said, “Jiang Fai. If you don’t apologize right now, I will throw you and your mother right this instant.”

“You won’t.”

A deep voice rang in the air as the Mafia King spoke. She was startled and turned to look at Wei, who was staring back at her with his sake eyes.

“Aunt and Fai will not go anywhere.”

His every word carried weight that challenged the Old Madam.

“You…I will not tolerate such disrespect,” her gaze was fierce.

Wei tilted his head. “If Aunt can tolerate your disrespect for eleven years, then why can’t you?”

Jiang Fai and Lihua almost broke into laughter.

His sharp question was so direct that it hit straight at her heart. The Old Madam slowly said, “You never talked to me like this before but ever since this witch came, you suddenly got a tongue, don’t you?”

Wei blinked his eyes. “I always had a tongue.”

“Pfft!” Lihua finally couldn’t contain herself and laughed. She didn’t know if it was intentional or accidental, but she found her husband savage.

The Old Madam’s mood took a turn for the worse.

Ruomei pursed her lips. “Wei, she is right. You never talked so disrespectfully before. It’s all because of Lixue that you…Why don’t you understand that she is trying to make you against your family?”

Wei didn’t bother to respond while Lihua rolled her eyes. With such blatant ignorance in front of everyone, she couldn’t meet anyone’s gaze in shame.

Lihua glanced at Jiang Fai and said, “Old Madam is right, Fai Fai. Apologize to her. It’s bad manners to talk to elders like that.”

His eyes widened in shock. “What!? I will never-”

“Besides…” She cut him off and continued. “You don’t have to lose your patience over this because we are going to win this. They are ignorant of your talent, so you should shut their mouths with your skill, not with words.”

Jiang Fai was taken aback. But then a sly smile lifted his lips and he looked at Old Madam. “I apologize for my rudeness, Old Madam. I shouldn’t have spoken like that.”

Of course, nobody missed the sarcasm in his tone.

Lihua said, “Also, we accept your condition.”

Jiang Xiurang took a sharp breath.

She smiled. “Now, if you excuse us, Fai Fai and I have to work for our awesome proposal.”

—

They assembled in Jiang Fai’s room and Jiang Xiurang was the first to ask, “T-that…will we really have to leave?”

Lihua giggled. “Of course not, Aunt! Don’t you believe in Fai Fai?”

She quickly said, “Yes, I do! But business is not so easy…Fai Fai is just seventeen.”

“It has nothing to do with age, Aunt. Only talent. Trust us! We will definitely win and you will definitely be free!”

Lihua asked, “Okay! So what goes on in a comic? I mean, what is the process?”

Jiang Fai said, “Well… first, we need to get the story and script out. Since there are very limited pages, we need to see how to fit all the panels with the story in a way that is exciting and attention-grabbing. Then, I will draw, ink and color. The last part is mainly advertising and printing comics.”

She brightened. “Oh! How much time will it take for you to make the comic?”

He grinned. “Well, it’s actually quite labor-intensive work, but it doesn’t take much time for me. I don’t have school now, so I can entirely focus on drawing.”

Lihua was delighted. “That’s wonderful! Once we get the story out, I can leave it up to you for the drawing part. The main part is advertising. We need to market this comic so much that it beats Shi Ruomei.”

He pursed his lips. “But how?”

“Hm…” All three of them were in deep thought.

A certain Mafia King offered. “Jiang Industries is connected with many advertising companies.”

Startled, she looked back at Wei who seemed to feel left out. She coughed and quickly hugged him. “Wei!”

Looking at her small happy face, his dissatisfaction flew away. “En.”

Jiang Fai dryly stared at them with imaginary flowers blooming around them.

Oof! Dog food!

“Really?” She beamed.

He nodded. “Marketing won’t be a problem.”

“That’s good!” She thought about it. “Well, that will happen once the comic is ready. But I think we should take early steps so that maximum public is involved.”

Jiang Fai questioned. “How?”

“Hehe…”

The next day as Lihua and Jiang Fai got busy with drafting the storyline, Fu Renshu came in with bad news. “Old Madam has ordered that all the advertising and marketing firms that Jiang Industries is connected with will be solely dedicated to promoting Miss Shi’s proposal. If they try to collaborate with you, then well…”

The color on the teenager’s face faded. “What? Then how will we do it? Drawing a comic is of no use if there is nobody to buy it.”

Lihua patted his back. “Don’t worry, Fai Fai. Everything will be fine. You just focus on the comic. Leave the rest to me.”

He hesitated but then nodded.

Outside, Fu Renshu asked, “What are you planning to do?”

“Hohoho! Old Madam can control the firms, not social media. We just need to have a strategy to use social media to our advantage. We won’t lose to Old Madam this way.”

He raised his brow.

“Social media huh…?”

“Yup. Old Madam doesn’t realize its power. And before she realizes it, Fai Fai would have already gone miles ahead!”
