The Mafia King's First Love Chapter 435 – The Mole

On the other side of the globe, Jiang Zhen quietly watched the footage of Wei arriving in the supermarket just in the nick of time to save Lihua.

He tilted his head and watched the entire scene of him anxiously hugging Lihua. The worry on his face was something that Jiang Zhen had never seen.

A trace of slight anger and surprise flashed in his eyes.

Wei was at the supermarket.

It meant that the man at the hospital was a fake.

And why not?

Yang Mingshen was on his side. It would be a child’s play to do that.

He smiled a dangerous smile.

“I expected nothing less of you… cousin. If it had been so easy to knock you out of your position, then it wouldn’t have been fun at all.”

He sat back on his chair and replayed the footage. Wei’s worried and anxious face gave relief to his heart because he now knew exactly his weak point. Not that he didn’t realize it before.

But to see if with his own eyes was nothing less than spectacular. His gaze twinkled.

“You seem to love her very much, cousin. I wonder what your expression will be when I make her mine. How will you look?” He chuckled.

“Ah…this will be so much fun.”

He picked up his phone and ordered, “Tell that woman to come out with her accusation. Also, you know how to stir up trouble in the Underworld. So, do it,” he cut the call.

Jiang Zhen stared at Lihua’s face in the footage.

“She is pretty, I must admit. I wonder how she will feel in bed? She must feel so soft. Hm, I really cannot wait anymore. Guess, it’s time to bring you here, Lihua.”

Days passed by and in the blink of an eye, it was already the time for Lihua’s final exams. Thanks to Ji Da Xia and Liangshi’s tutoring, her exams went smoothly.

But Wei’s side had not been so smooth. The young woman filed a report against him, making forced prostitution charges. Ji Da Xia had tried her best to contact her, but she never got a chance.

The whole media was in an uproar. At first, Wei had surrendered himself for a murder, and now this woman came forward with such an accusation against him.

Not only that, it was also revealed that Wei was never in the hospital. It was a decoy taking his place, and the real Jiang Wei was still free. This made him look even guiltier. He was running away from the law which tightened everybody’s beliefs that Wei was indeed wrong.

And to add, there started an unrest in the Underworld. The different gangs came together to fight and cause trouble. They wanted Wei to surrender his Mafia King position. Fu Renshu worked with Shen Yang to subdue them, but their fights increased the more they tried to control them.

To prevent that, the gangs also started to interfere in other people’s lives. Vandalizing, robbery, extortion and violence became common occurrences.

The Underworld was starting to slip from Wei’s hands.

In the Jiang villa, Jiang Yubi had been sobbing for a while upon hearing such distressing news.

“Weizhe, what is this?” Tears fell, “Just look how they are talking about my Wei. Everybody is cursing him.”

Jiang Weizhe said nothing.

Old Madam’s eyes ached with tears as well. “That’s all Jiang Shan’s doing, right? How? How could he come so close to us? He is controlling everything from abroad, and like puppets, we are going along as he wants…how is this possible? Now even the Underworld is waging a war against Wei.”

Jiang Weiyuan calmly said, “Everything will be fine, Mom.”

“How? If that woman doesn’t take her accusation back, it will be impossible. The prostitution charge is adding oil to the fire. How is this even happening!?”

Then she gasped as she slowly widened her eyes in realization.

“I-Is there a mole within us?”

He nodded.

“Then have you caught him? Who is he?”

“The investigation is going on.”

“What? Why still? It must be someone who is working close to Wei. Only a few people knew his plan and the whole facade.”

Jiang Li said with a grim expression. “That’s the problem, Grandma. There are only three people who know everything. And they all are trustworthy. Fu Renshu, Shen Yang and Xian Xue. The other guards or gangs don’t have any whiff of it.”

“Ridiculous! None of them can be the moles!” Old Madam declared.

The men said nothing.

“Does it mean that somehow some other guard managed to tap into Wei’s plan and communicate it to Jiang Shan?”

“It seems it’s the only possible solution.”

“It’s not, Boss Li,” A dark and heavy voice came from behind.

Xian Xue, vice chief of the security forces, stepped in. “There is no other man capable of coming that close to Boss, and Boss wouldn’t even notice it.”

Jiang Weizhe narrowed his eyes. “What do you mean?”

“It means that it is somebody high in the hierarchy to be able to get such information.”

“Do you have any suspicions?”

Xian Xue remained quiet for a moment. “Indeed I have.”

“Who?”

“Shen Yang.”

A sharp silence fell in the room.

Jiang Yubi and Old Madam exchanged stupefied glances.

Jiang Weiyuan wasn’t gazed at all. It was an accusation on his future son-in-law, but he seemed calm.

“Evidence,” he stated.

“I saw him meeting the same woman who has charged prostitution accusation at Boss. Soon after his meeting, the woman went ahead and filed the complaint, and in the next hour, it was all over the media already.”

He took out his phone and played a video. In it, everybody indeed saw Shen Yang meeting the woman and talking to her.

“My apologies that I couldn’t record what they were talking about. I couldn’t risk being found out.”

Jiang Ruiling then rushed inside and threw his phone away. Xian Xue narrowed his eyes on her. “It’s important evidence, young mistress.”

Her face was livid with anger. “You dare accuse my fiance? Don’t bother acting all innocent! I know why you are doing this. It’s because you are taking revenge from him for your own incompetence, isn’t it?”

“Incompetence?”

“Yes. You never got the Chief’s position, and you feel Shen Yang snatched it away from you.. Even I know how you were always so salty about it. And now when you got the chance, you just couldn’t help but smear his name, could you?”
