The Mafia King's First Love

Chapter 163 - A Different Jiang Xiurang

The days slowly passed by and Storyteller kept posting more pictures, inciting people's curiosity more and more. On the other hand, the ad agencies heavily promoted Ruomei's proposal whose effect also refused to die down.

But as Lihua was working anonymously behind Storyteller's username, nobody had any idea of what she was upto.

In her room, as the maid massaged the Old Madam's shoulders, she coldly asked Ruomei, "How is it going?"

The gleam on her face was unmistakable. Ruomei softly smiled, "Old Madam. It's going great. My proposal is everywhere on the ads and we have already gotten many customers doing the pre-booking. This will continue for sure and I will win this."

"And what about her?"

Ruomei snickered. "They are going nowhere. Fai is still at the coloring part which means that printing all those comics copies will take even more time. If the comic is not ready, how will Lixue promote it? And when?"

The Old Madam sneered. "There are hardly any days left and she expects to win?"

Ruomei sighed. "But I think it's good whatever is happening. That witch has hypnotized Fai and once they lose, Fai would also understand that he was wrong."

The Old Madam smiled. "And Xiurang will finally leave with Li Tingzhe too. I won't have to bear the humiliation of keeping her in this house!"

Ruomei nodded. "Yes, Old Madam."

"Well, I cannot wait for the day when the results are announced and you win the challenge."

The judgement day came in the blink of an eye. Jiang Fai was nervously pacing around his room. Jiang Xiurang also couldn't keep her calm. It was make or break day. If they lost, she would be forced to go with Li Tingzhe with her son and live a humiliating life until the end.

"Sister-in-law, we didn't do anything much on the promotion part. The comics are printed ready and available in bookstores, too, but I didn't get any update on their selling…"

Lihua smiled. "Fai Fai. You don't worry about anything. We will win this."

His mouth twitched. "Why are you so confident?"

"It's because I am very smart hoho~"

This woman…

"Only a few copies are sold though. Aren't we losing in numbers by a huge margin?"

She raised her brow. "And who said that is the real number? The real buying hasn't even started yet."

"..."

"Sister-in-law. Just how many people will buy my comics in a single day? It will never be able to match with Shi Ruomei's numbers."

"Patience, my Fai Fai, patience! Now, let's go. Everybody is waiting for us. But before that…"

She looked at Jiang Xiurang and smiled. "We need to doll you up a bit."

In the Jiang family main hall, all family members gathered along with the same company directors that were in the proposal meeting. It was allowed for some trusted media reporters to cover the whole event. Since Old Madam was sure that Ruomei was going to win, she wanted her victory to be telecast in the entire China and indirectly how she chose a great woman for Wei. There were some other business associates and CEOs too who were invited by her.

Ruomei sat beside the Old Madam with a big grin on her face. Her father, Shi Zhen said, "Ah Ruomei. I am so proud of you, dear."

"Dad…" she smiled. "It was my duty. As the future daughter-in-law of the Jiang family, it's my pleasure to help in the business."

The Old Madam said, "She is talented indeed."

Hearing praise from the Old Madam herself, Shi Zhen stood prouder. Shi Cuifen smiled at her. "I am happy for you, dear."

She giggled. "Thanks Mom. With this, Lixue will finally learn her place."

Lihua came along with Jiang Xiurang and Jiang Fai and as soon as they entered, everybody was left stunned.

Jiang Xiurang was dressed in an elegant dress that well suited her with a neat bun. The light touch of makeup made her look extremely beautiful.

All the gazes and stares on her made her feel anxious. She felt like running away from here and hide somewhere. She had never worn something so fancy before, especially after she left Li Tingzhe. But tonight, Lihua suddenly went into full beauty mode to make her ready.

"Lixue…" she urgently whispered. "I-I should change. Everybody is looking so…"

She grinned. "Aunt, they are stunned by your beauty. That's why, they are shocked."

"But why are we doing this?"

"Because somebody needs to know what gold he has lost in exchange for coal."

Old Madam said, "Xiurang, what is with this attire?"

Lihua said, "She looks beautiful, doesn't she? Since Fai Fai is going to win, we decided that Aunt should dress up for this special occasion."

Hearing that, they got the mocking looks and sneers from the Old Madam and Shi Zhen. "Win who? Fai Fai? With his meagre sales?"

She sighed. "We will see that."

Li Tingzhe came in too, with his mistress Kang Yuming and their children, Kang Hongqi and Kang Meifen. The reporters instantly clicked some pictures and whispered among themselves.

"Wow. Li Tingzhe is here too with his mistress."

"And with her kids."

Jiang Fai was extremely furious.

This bastard brought them too!?

Kang Yuming's gaze fell upon Jiang Xiurang and her eyes popped out of her sockets.

T-this…

The Jiang Xiurang in front of her was not the ugly and tired woman who always looked defeated. Instead, her beauty now would make someone's breath take away. Her elegance was akin to a pretty untainted flower and in front of her, she felt as if she looked like some cheap woman.

When did she learn to doll up?

Seeing the beautiful Jiang Xiurang made her so jealous that she dug her nails in her palm. It seemed as if she was nowhere near her.

Even Li Tingzhe couldn't tear his eyes off her. She shone so sparkling and graceful in the entire crowd that anybody's gaze would only fall upon her. A gulp passed down his throat as he felt drawn in by her beauty.

Is this the Xiurang I know?
