The Mafia King's First Love

Chapter 65 - The Mafia King Arrives At The Bar!

"Of course! Why wouldn't I be? I am suffering like hell here. I am ready to mope the floor if you want."

He chuckled. "It's not that. Yes I can give you a job in the company, but your work will be different…" he leaned and whispered, "there is a way to earn money quickly without climbing the ladder if you are okay to work in you know...not so ethical stuff."

Lihua acted a bit surprised.

"Don't give it out."

She quickly retracted her expression and whispered, "But I will get loads of money right?"

"Of course. You will be able to buy a house, not just rent it anymore."

Lihua seemed hesitant. "I want the money. I am ready to do it, ethical or unethical. I don't care. But...will I get into trouble? What if we are exposed one day?"

Kang Peng waved his hand in dismissal. "You won't. Everything is tightly lipped. Even the CEO has no clue. This is going on for years now. Nothing has happened until now."

"B-But the police...I hear that do random checks on the company. I have even heard that they get undercover sometimes. I see it in news all the time."

Mo Huojin narrowed his eyes.

Kang Peng laughed. He quietly said, "Don't worry, dear. We are always ready for random checks with false data. As for any undercover cop, I assure you that there is none."

Lihua bit her lip. "How can you be so sure?"

"We have our own way of doing things. We have been in this for years now as I said. All are trustworthy in our group. We are sure. We have someone from the Underworld keeping an eye on the cops. So I know that there is no undercover officer hidden among us. We all trust that man's words."

Lihua felt that he was speaking the truth. He was so sure and confident and didn't show any signs that he knew Song Jia.

Mo Huojin's voice crackled through the hidden earpiece. "He is saying the truth. I feel it. He wouldn't be that confident for no reason. He has nothing to be afraid of. You can stop here. Song Jia is not investigating Jian Steel."

She quietly hummed as her response. She smiled at him. "I see. Then I have no problem. When should I come for my first day?"

"What better day than tomorrow? The sooner the better."

"Great!" She clapped her hands. "Sir, I cannot thank you enough. If not for you…Anyway. I am really grateful to you. I will be on time tomorrow."

Of course, it was a lie.

Lihua got up and said, "I should leave now. Tomorrow is such a big day. I don't want to be late."

She stepped down but he stopped her by holding her wrist. "Hold on. Why so soon? Let's spend some time together. Don't you want to thank me?" He slyly smiled.

She stiffened. Mo Huojin cursed.

Lihua awkwardly laughed. She tried to shake off her hand. "Haha... That I have to go early."

"The night has just started dear. What is so early?"

Mo Huojin realized that she wouldn't be able to get out of this. He had to help her. The best way was to pick a fight with him.

I will just create a scene and let her escape.

Lihua felt relieved to see Mo Huojin coming her way to help her. But before he could reach her, a certain someone already grabbed Kang Peng's wrist and tore it off Lihua's hand.

As she recognized the familiar scent of her Godly handsome Boss, she froze. She even recognized his beautiful and fair hand.

Um...what is going on?

Lihua's breath got stuck in her throat. She didn't even dare raise her head to look at him.

Maybe...just maybe, he is actually not my Boss?

Mo Huojin paused in his steps. He narrowed his eyes as he recognized Wei.

CEO Jiang Wei? What is he doing here?

Kang Peng widened his eyes at the intrusion and he raised his head, feeling dumbfounded. As his eyes met the dark and murderous gaze of the Mafia King, he felt his blood freeze in his body. Every cell screamed of an imminent threat looming upon him. He wanted to withdraw his hand, but it was as if every nerve and muscle refused to cooperate.

"Y-You…"

Wei watched him in utter silence but in his mind, he was already thinking of the numerous ways to deal with him in his base. The entire bar became deadly silent. The loud music was replaced with such eerie quietness that even a needle's sound could be heard if it fell. His command and presence didn't allow anybody to dare to even utter a single word without his consent.

The women in the bar stared at him in admiration but fear as well. He was an ethereal beauty but also someone who could hurt them with his thorns if they carelessly approached him. There was an air of danger around him that put an invisible pressure on everyone.

Kang Peng felt as if he had seen him somewhere. Then his eyes widened in shock as it finally clicked him.

CEO Jiang!

Wei didn't make many public appearances until now, so it was inevitable that Kang Peng had a hard time recognizing him.

Kang Peng stammered as sweat profusely dripped down his sides. Even with the air conditioning on full blast, he felt hot as if he was stuck in a desert.

Wei narrowed his eyes and slowly began to crush his wrist bone. "You are touching someone you shouldn't."

He spoke very quietly, but very clearly too. There was a deadly ring to his voice that smelled of death.

Lihua stiffened.

The last hope of Wei being a doppelganger vanished from her heart.

Not just his smell and hand, but even his voice is the same!

But wait. Doppelgangers are supposed to be exactly the same, right? Hahaha.

She knew it was a fruitless consolation. Her Godly handsome Boss was present here in blood and flesh. Instead of seeing her in Meng Ya's house, he saw her in a bar here.

I am dead. He caught my lie. I am so dead!
