The Mafia King's First Love

Chapter 331 - The Mafia King Recalls A Distant Memory

*Knock knock*

"Hm," Wei hummed.

Fu Renshu slowly opened the door to his office and stepped in. He glanced at Wei and saw that he seemed to be in a good mood. There was a soft smile on his lips, and he could see imaginary flowers blooming around him.

They must have had a great time at the island yesterday, he thought.

Fu Renshu respectfully stood in front of him. "Boss."

Wei looked at him. "Hm. Anything about Jiang Shan?" .

"Boss, all our spies from the Underworld have searched every nook and corner. There are no traces of him being in China even under disguise or fake identity."

He nodded.

"He must be handling everything from abroad under a false name. But it's difficult to pinpoint the country. He could be anywhere. I am trying to find out all the Chinese nationals who suddenly appeared in foreign countries around forty two years ago and have settled there until now."

Wei coldly said, "Flush out for any spies sent by him. There must be someone from his gang who must be spying on us and reporting back to him. Dig out the mole."

"Yes, Boss."

"Nobody should know that we are looking for him."

"Don't worry, Boss. All our spies can be trusted."

"En. Continue with the investigation and let me know the updates. You can leave now."

Fu Renshu stood still.

Wei blinked his eyes and lifted his eyes. "Anything else?"

He hesitated and felt anxious. He knew what he was going to say next would be going against his Boss. He had promised Meng Ya that he will convey her thoughts and try to convince him about what she said.

"That…"

Wei tilted his head and curiously said, "I have never seen you think so much before talking to me."

Fu Renshu's smile faltered. "Boss, if you don't mind...can I say something to you. It's just my personal opinion. I know it's out of the blue, but I think it's my duty to tell you this."

"Go on."

"...Boss, you know how Meng Ya is living with me."

Wei narrowed his eyes. "Is she causing trouble again?"

He quickly said, "No, Boss. Meng Ya is not causing any trouble. She will not bother Madam Lihua anymore with the truth."

"Good for her," there was no trace of any emotion as he said that.

"But she does have to say something to you which I...I am beginning to agree with her."

Wei tilted his head.

"Boss, I think that you should…" Fu Renshu silently inhaled a deep breath, "You should tell everything to Madam Lihua. The truth."

Wei froze.

"I-I know that you erased memory so that she never learns anything, but Boss…you are really treading on a dangerous path. It seems nice and happy now but...I am afraid it won't last for longer."

He clenched his fists, and a dark storm seemed to brew in his eyes.

"Boss. Song Lihua really, really trusts you whether she is Jiang Lixue or when she was Song Lihua. I know that you are doing this not to lose her, but it will entangle you even in deeper problems. I admit I thought that this was right. She will be really hurt to come to know the truth one day-"

"Why will she come to know the truth, Renshu?" He frostily cut him off. "Why will she realize anything? Isn't that why Mingshen erased her memories?"

Fu Renshu stiffened. "Indeed so…"

He didn't know how to explain it.

'Even if it's not through me, she would learn it from somebody else. He cannot hide it forever.'

Meng Ya's words flashed in his mind.

His gaze dimmed. "You cannot...hide it forever Boss."

Wei trembled.

"Her family, her life, her whole identity have been wiped off with her memories. It's too big to keep it buried forever. That's why...I-I just felt that you should tell her the truth."

Silence.

"And? Do you think she will forgive me? Do you think that she will not leave me?"

Fu Renshu pursed her lips. "She will leave you...It's impossible that she won't."

"Then what's the point of uttering this nonsense to me?" Wei's voice was so sharp, cold and merciless that Fu Renshu felt goosebumps on his skin.

"You want me to do something that will take Lihua away from me. Why would you ask me to do this?"

"So that she doesn't hate you anymore than this…"

*BANG!*

Fu Renshu jolted as Wei suddenly banged his fist on the table. It resounded so harshly that he felt his heart drumming fast.

"Get out."

Fu Renshu stiffened. "B-Boss I am sorry. I-"

"Get out!"

He anxiously took a step forward to talk to him, but Wei was in no mood right now. The words that Lihua would leave him felt like a curse to him. He didn't want to hear a single word remotely connected to that

"I said get out!" His intimidating, dark expression turned the atmosphere suddenly so heavy that it became difficult to breathe.

Fu Renshu took a step back and bowed. "...I will leave."

Wei clenched his fists. "Don't ever bring that up or I will throw you into the base. I don't have to say what will happen next, right?" He said in an extremely quiet tone.

"Yes, Boss."

He stared at Wei who seemed to be shaken up and trembling. His gaze was filled with fear and distress.

Fu Renshu sadly lowered his head and went away.

Wei shut his eyes and took two deep breaths to calm down. He unlocked his phone and Lihua's wallpaper popped up on the screen. The bright, cheery smile on her face felt relaxing.

A faint, tired smile laced his lips.

You are here Lihua. You are here with me…

He lifted his phone and gently kissed her picture on the screen. He stared at her beautiful eyes that he always loved to look at for a long time.

A long, long time…

A certain memory flashed before him. A sweet, bubbly voice of the distant past faintly rang in his ears and with that a little girl, wearing cute pigtails appeared in front of his eyes.

"Godly handsome pwince!"
