The Mafia King's First Love Chapter 546 A visit at the dead of night

Chapter 546 A visit at the dead of night　　The days kept passing by. Compared to how difficult Lihua thought it would be to get more people to talk to her, it actually proved a lot easier.

First, Xiao Jian and Cao Qing became good friends. As they found each other as friends who didn’t judge one another, high school life became a lot easier for them, especially for Xiao Jian. For her, any lingering and self-conscious thoughts slowly started to dissipate the more she bonded with Cao Qing.

For Zhu Fang, leaving her cheater husband wasn’t easy. He had flipped out knowing that she wanted to divorce him and for the first time, he hit her in a fit of anger. She didn’t visit Lihua for days, and when she finally did, she broke down into tears. But with the lawyer Lu Zan’s help and Lihua’s encouragement, she got the confidence to file a domestic violence charge against her husband.

Lihua hugged her. “I am glad you did this. If you have remained silent for the first time, he would have become arrogant that you are a pushover. Cheating and beating up his wife? He should be dropped to the pits of hell! Right, Jiang Hua?”

“H-Huh?” She broke out of her daze.

“Men who don’t respect their wives must rot to hell, right? Women are also human, after all! Nobody is allowed to treat anybody with humiliation and disrespect, right?” She probed.

Her heart skipped a beat in tension. She automatically lowered her gaze.

“S-sometimes it’s not easy…” her shaking hand clutched onto her dress.

“It’s never easy walking out of a relationship. But in the end, you have to make a choice. Will you always fear to step out? Or do you want to live a life of respect?”

She couldn’t answer.

“Your decision becomes even more important if you have a child. A child watches his parents’ relationship and grows up in that environment. If either of the parents is too toxic, then would you want your child to learn from him or her and become like that in the future?”

She froze. She peeked at Ruru, who was petting Qingqing’s fur and faithfully serving her. He giggled as her furry body tickled him.

*Meow* she lazily stretched her legs.

Did she want Ruru to become another Jiang Zhen?

An uncomfortable sensation welled in her throat thinking Ruru to be an evil man like his father.

His eyes were filled with such innocence and warmth right now. Did she want to see them drown in cruelty and coldness one day?

Lihua softly smiled. It might not be easy for a wife, but as a mother, she believed that Jiang Hua would soon get the courage to fight Jiang Zhen.

After that, more and more people came to talk to Lihua with its credit given to Lu Zan, who spread the word to his friends and clients. Not all who came to her were drug addicts. But the more her name spread, the more people who consumed drugs began to slowly come out of their shell. It happened faster than Lihua expected.

It was tough, but Lihua truly enjoyed talking to these people. She thought that her studies in Public Relations was coming into good use, and she could find no better way to test her skills.

Zhao Weisheng smiled and asked, “How are things going in the park?”

Lihua, whose belly was bigger now, had slight difficulty in adjusting in her chair. Zhao Weisheng helped her, and Qingqing jumped onto her belly.

*Meow*

Lihua beamed. “It’s going great! It’s challenging. Not all people agree. Sometimes it’s difficult to answer them because even if they are wrong, they have a point. But I am liking this. It urges me not to give up until I change their mind.”

He nodded. “That’s good. You should take challenges as opportunities.”

She agreed. Then she touched her chin doubtfully. “But you know Grandpa…I get many people to talk to everyday. But I have this nagging feeling that it shouldn’t have been so easy.”

“Word of mouth is very powerful, dear.”

“I know…” her brows crinkled in thought, “But I still think that things are going smoother than I had thought. You know? I even prepared a banner to advertise myself,” she sheepishly grinned. “I was going to tell Shen Yang and Chang Fang to post the banners throughout the city,” she gritted her teeth, “damn that Jiang Zhen snatched my phone or I would have started a Weibo campaign too! But see? Even without it, things are so easy that I feel uneasy now. Is Jiang Zhen doing this?”

“Why would he do this? He wants you to fail.”

Lihua pursed her lips. “I know. But what if he is pulling some strings to make me feel as if I am winning? That bastard is a sadist!”

Zhao Weisheng patted her head. “I am sure you are overthinking. Maybe the answer is closer to what you might think.”

They went to sleep after talking for a while.

It was almost one-thirty AM when Qingqing’s ears perked up. She suddenly opened her eyes, alert. Her beautiful green pupils narrowed as she saw someone’s outline in the dark slowly approaching Lihua. She silently hissed at the intrusion, and a killing intent shone in her eyes.

But as the figure came closer, Qingqing lowered her guard. The bloodthirst dissipated from her eyes. She watched the figure kneel to Lihua’s side, who was soundly sleeping. There was a tear in the corner of her eye as she was dreaming of her good times with Wei.

The man leaned closer to her ear and whispered, “Lihua.”

Lihua hummed and dazedly moved but didn’t wake up.

“Lihua,” the man softly whispered again.

Her brows slightly creased. She opened her eyes in her sleep and saw a blurry face in front of her.

She stared at the face, chuckled and mumbled in her sleep, “So strange…Hehe, I have been dreaming too much I think? Because then why am I seeing Wei right now?”
