The Mafia King's First Love

Chapter 314 - The Cruel Underworld

Where Lihua and Wei were spending their lovely time together, Meng Ya was causing havoc to leave the Fu house to meet Lihua.

She glared at the guards who were refusing to let her step out. "Leave my way!"

"I am sorry Mam. But it's Sir's order that you cannot leave this house."

"This is against the law! You cannot keep me here against my will!"

Then she heard a voice say, "And what will law do if I don't listen to you?"

Fu Renshu signaled the guards to leave. He stood in front of her, his arms folded as he stared at her.

"Fu Renshu! Take me to Lihua right now!"

"I don't think you remember the choices I gave you last time. Leave the city and never ever think to meet her or stay here for the rest of your life," he threateningly took a step forward and lifted her chin as coldness permeated out of his aura. "Separating Boss and Madam is an option you will never have. Trust me, Meng Ya. Boss is being really merciful to let you stay alive."

She gritted her teeth. "What do you mean?"

He snorted. "Do you know what happens when you go against the Boss? Have you seen our base where traitors and offenders are kept? Have you ever smelled the air where it is so thick with blood that it makes you puke? Have you ever felt the danger where it crawls upon you bit by bit?"

Meng Ya slightly turned pale and took a step back.

"You wouldn't want to see it, and you definitely wouldn't want to experience that fate," he quietly said. "That is why it is better to live in your fairy tale world you have always been living in."

Tears pooled in her eyes, but she remained stubborn. "What you are doing is wrong! You and your Boss are fooling my friend! He doesn't deserve her!"

"Meng Ya!"

His voice thundered so hard that she frighteningly took a step back. He grabbed her arm and his intimidating gaze threatened to cross his boundaries if she overstepped hers.

"Who the hell are you to say that he doesn't deserve her?"

She trembled and her voice stammered. "Y-you...no matter h-how much you shout, I won't deter. I will tell Lihua the truth one day!"

Fu Renshu silently stared at her. Without saying anything, he pulled her hard and dumped her in his car. Her eyes widened in shock. "W-where are you taking me?"

"Aren't you trying to become the Goddess of justice? Let me show you what will happen if you don't let go of your stubbornness."

Fifteen minutes later, he parked in front of the base and the guards straightened up. Even the sight alone of that base sent chills down Meng Ya's spine. It was so dark and gloomy that she had an urge to run away.

But Fu Renshu forcibly brought her inside.

"L-Let me go, you hooligan!" She could hardly gather her courage to speak anymore.

It was getting darker and darker that made her paler than ever. She broke into cold sweat and she resisted with all her might.

"Stop fighting!" Fu Renshu growled.

"I-I don't want to be here…" she burst into tears.

But he didn't listen to her. He brought her into one room and through the large glass windows, she froze seeing a young man tied to a pole who was bruised all over. His condition was so pathetic that his sight made her stomach churn.

"Do you know who he is? He is a cop who tried to intervene in Boss's matters," Fu Renshu smirked. "His name is Mo Huojin. He was investigating Boss, and he threatened to spill his truth to Madam Lihua."

Meng Ya stiffened.

"He refused to cooperate with the Boss and look at how his state is. Now, let me ask you. Do you want to be at his place?"

She felt all the strength getting sapped from her knees.

"Do you even know why you are NOT at his place right now?"

Her heart thudded in fear.

She gasped as he suddenly pulled her and pinched her jaw to make her face him. "It's only because you are Madam Lihua's friend and if possible, he doesn't want you to go through this mess. When you barged in the mall that day and tried to tell the truth to her, you had no idea how angry he was."

She stiffened.

"He cannot tolerate if anybody tries to come in his way, especially if it concerns his wife. The only reason you are not joining that man in his misery is because he doesn't want to hurt her best friend. But that doesn't mean his patience is unending. There will be consequences if you refuse to budge. Meng Ya. The Underworld is a cruel place. It reeks of blood and violence if anybody challenges the Mafia King."

Her chest heaved up and down, feeling breathless. She was hyperventilating as a suffocating feeling gripped her chest.

This was a dark and horrible place, and she didn't wish to stand here even for a second. Her sobs reached his ears and he stiffened.

He saw tears from her eyes plop on the floor. He saw her shaking and trembling hands weakly gripping his shirt.

As if somebody stabbed his heart, he felt a twisting knot that shook him hard with pain. He didn't want to see her cry.

"I...I am scared...of the dark…"

Meng Ya was once accidentally locked up in a dark room when she was young. She had cried and screamed hard but it was nighttime. Nobody came to help her. She was only rescued the next day where the guard found her unconscious.

Ever since that incident, Meng Ya suffered from nyctophobia. Even when she went to sleep, she would keep a lamp on by her bedside.

Fu Renshu picked her in his arms and quickly took her outside. He placed her inside the car. Meng Ya was still sobbing, burying her head in his chest, her figure quivering in his arms.

He lowered his gaze and felt his heart tighten in uneasiness. His soft voice whispered after a pause, "I am sorry, Meng Ya...."
