Chapter 437 - The Mafia King Asks For A Dance
"That woman is lying," Xian Xue said.
Jiang Ruiling glared at him. "Why would she have any reason to lie against you? Stop clutching to straws here. Shen Yang answered all your questions, but you are unable to answer anything. You couldn't justify that the fake instructor was you when the prisoner clearly saw a mark on your neck-"
"Mark?" Xian Xue laughed. "If that is it, then did you ask if Shen Yang had such a mark on his neck?" He pointed at the back of his neck and smiled. "Don't you think it's a weird place to hurt yourself? In what circumstances do you think one might have got scratched there?"
Jiang Yubi coughed.
"Madam Jiang Yubi understands it. It's when a man makes out with a woman, and that woman wraps her hand around his neck and digs her nails on his skin in pleasure. So, clearly, that's how I got the mark."
Jiang Ruiling narrowed her eyes. "Nobody is interested in your sex life here."
"But they should be in Chief's sex life, right?" He laughed. "He is not a celibate. Aren't you his fiance? What if he might have gotten a similar mark on his neck while…" he left it unsaid.
Jiang Li's voice was grave as he spoke, "Xian Xue. In your limits. You are talking about my sister."
"Apologies. But my point is that even he can get the mark. It's been days since that incident, and my mark has already been healed. I assume so would have Chief's. We have no way of knowing if he really had such a mark or not."
Jiang Ruiling smiled. "I am his fiance, and I know. We didn't do any such thing on that day that would give him that mark."
He smirked. "If he didn't do it with you, it doesn't mean that he didn't do it with someone else…"
In the very next second, a loud slap fell on his cheek, and his head turned sideways.
"Xian Xue!" Jiang Ruiling trembled in anger. Veins were bulging on her forehead.
Shen Yang widened his eyes and pulled her back. "Stop, young mistress. There is no need to be furious."
"How can I not? He is talking nonsense now that the suspicion is on him! He is crossing all his limits."
"I am not offended because I know it's not the truth," he was calm.
Xian Xue touched his cheek, which slightly stung because of her slap. His other hand balled into a fist, and his gaze was livid with rage.
Jiang Ruiling looked at her father and said, "Dad, Uncle. You need to do something. He is hiding so many things and is now even humiliating Shen Yang openly. He is working for Jiang Shan for sure."
Jiang Weizhe glanced at him. "Will you still not say whom you met that day?"
"No."
He was silent.
"We will talk at the base later on. Until then, you are forbidden from communicating with anyone."
Xian Xue narrowed his eyes. His bloodthirsty gaze fell on Shen Yang, and he had an urge to kill him then and there.
"As you say, Boss."
As he passed by Shen Yang, he whispered in his ear, "Don't fly too high, Shen Yang. Your time will come soon."
Shen Yang remained unfazed.
Xian Xue shot him one deadly stare and left.

"Cheers to us!" Meng Ya raised the glass in the air and grinned. "Cheers to our treacherous exams finally getting over!"
Lihua raised her own glass and clinked it with hers. Since she was pregnant, she was drinking fruit punch.
Of course, Wei and Fu Renshu were also present, disguised as Huang Liangshi and Hai Ziruo. They had decided to do a party bash after their exams would get over, and so here they were.
"Hoho, tonight, we are gonna stuff ourselves with food and whatnot!"
Lihua giggled.
"And a big thanks to Liangshi and Ziruo for teaching us. I wish Miss Ji was here too…"
Wei and Fu Renshu glanced at each other. Of course, after the prostitution case was filed, she had been working like crazy to stop anymore damage. It was Jiang Weizhe's pressure due to which the cops didn't dare to arrest Wei yet.
Naturally, Lihua was aware of everything. She was stunned to see the accusation against Wei, and for a moment, she wished to go to Jiang Shan herself and slap him herself. It extremely infuriated her to see such a ridiculous charge, but she knew that Wei and the rest of the family wouldn't let anything happen as Jiang Shan wanted.
Wei was still calm, though. It looked as if nothing fazed him at all. He could easily deal with the case. But his real concern was the growing unrest in the Underworld.
Somebody was instigating the gangs to protest and wanted him to give up the throne. And that somebody was most probably Xian Xue, who had been detained by Jiang Weizhe. He hoped to find answers about Jiang Shan once they started questioning him.
Wei broke out of his daze upon hearing Lihua's laughter. His gaze warmed up, and he picked up a plate of snacks. "Have some."
Lihua brightened. "Oh thanks! I am hungry haha."
Meng Ya eagerly clapped. "Come on, come on, let's celebrate! Let's all dance!"
Fu Renshu narrowed his eyes. He knew about her plan. Just yesterday, Meng Ya had messaged him to come to this club tonight as she wanted him to see her dance and get intimate with another boy and get jealous.
Hao Ziruo had been escaping from her plans for the last few days, but if tonight, he didn't appear before Fu Renshu, then Meng Ya would eat him alive.
On the other side, Wei peeked at Lihua and clasped his hands together. He looked a little nervous. Meng Ya and Fu Renshu were already on the dance floor. He moved closer to her and offered his hand.
Lihua looked at him in surprise.
"Shall we dance?"
