Chapter 161 - The Mafia King Makes Coffee For His Wife
Ruoi's proposal soared high as soon as it hit the ads. She highlighted the completed plan of the hotel and the various luxuries offered to the custors. The magnificent hotel stood tall surrounded by lush green earth that was simply srizing. Her ad was everywhere on the television, dia and pamphlets. People began to check the websites for its information and many of them already pre-booked their rooms ahead for the vacation plans.
As Ruoi checked the statistics at her ho, she smiled, feeling satisfied. As she went to take a look at what Lihua was doing, she saw that Jiang Fai and she were in a complete ss surrounded by drawing papers.
"Fai Fai, then what about showing her here at the end of the panel like a cliffhanger? That will be so hooking!"
He fud. "We don't have space! The woman should co here, not at the end."
"But there will be no mystery like that…" she whined.
"It should also go with the stairs behind, idiot. The woman should fit in the background."
Lihua sighed. "Alright Fai Fai, we will do as you say. You are the artist after all."
He felt proud. "Of course."
"Tsk. Tsk," Ruoi clicked her tongue and ca in. "Lixue, are you still at the stage of drawing your comic? I hope you are keeping a track of the news and the website visits. So many of the people have already pre-booked their rooms. And you haven't even started yet."
She sighed. She glanced at Jiang Fai and said in a concerned voice, "Fai, please listen to and stop this. Lixue's childish idea is not going to get you anywhere. When this fails, Old Madam will be even more disappointed in you."
Jiang Fai narrowed his eyes. "I don't know about her idea, but do you an to say that my hobby is childish?"
Ruoi widened her eyes. She felt as if she was in a pinch. She honestly thought just like Li Tingzhe. Comics, ani, manga were just a waste of ti. To base your whole future on that was foolishness.
She smiled. "Fai, you are misunderstanding ."
"Then don't say such stuff that makes us misunderstand you," Lihua rolled her eyes.
Ruoi glared at her.
"And thank you for the tip and the info. But Fai Fai and I are just fine. You don't have to worry about us."
"How can I not?" She pursed her lips. "You aren't even graduated and here you are dragging Fai in business matters with your ignorant proposal. I only care about Fai's wellbeing."
She snickered. "Well, for him, his well-being is in not going back to live with his cheater father who he clearly hates so much and which he should, but did you do anything about it?"
Ruoi froze and her face flushed.
"Do you want Fai Fai to lose his way, too, and beco a cheater like his father? Teenagers are really impressionable at this age. What else would he learn from that useless man? Is this your concern for him?"
"You…" her teeth ground in fury. Lihua never held back any punches.
Wei stepped in at that mont, carrying a tray in his hands. "Lixue," he whispered in his doting and caring voice.
He didn't even throw a glance at Ruoi and kept the tray. He served her a cup of coffee and warmly smiled. "You must be tired. I have made coffee for you."
Ruoi watched the couple, jealousy washing over her again.
The warmth in his eyes, the smile on his lips and the concern for Lihua; everything drove her crazy.
He brought coffee for her…
She never thought she would see this side one day of the Mafia King personally serving soone.
Lihua bead. "Oh thank you, Wei!"
"En," he kissed her forehead.
Jiang Fai felt wronged. "I-I am also tired. Can I have so coffee too?"
Wei threw a blank glance at him, and it was clear that he didn't an to share his coffee with anybody else but Lihua.
"You don't need to ask, Fai Fai. Of course, you can!" Lihua grinned.
He gulped and didn't dare et Wei's gaze whose lips had pursed into a straight line in disappointnt.
Lihua smiled at Ruoi. "Miss Shi. You seem to be really lonely standing there. Why don't you join us?"
If looks could kill, then she had already killed her a thousand tis with her gaze itself.
Is she implying that I am so pitiful?
She maintained her smile. "No, thank you. I have to get back to work. After all, my proposal is bringing in so much traction that it has beco hard to keep up."
Her tone implied how tired she was handling all the work, but at the sa ti, it expressed how much she was way ahead of Lihua.
She shyly looked at Wei. "Wei, I promise that I will win this proposal and bring nothing but profits for the Jiang Industries."
Once I win this, Wei will definitely start noticing . How would he bear to stay with a loser? She sneered.
She turned around and left.
Lihua's mouth twitched. "She talks too much."
Wei nodded in agreent.
Jiang Fai dryly said in disdain, "You are too chirpy in your way…"
She pouted. "Wei, do you not like like that?"
Wei grabbed her head and placed a deep kiss on her lips. Tilting his head, he nibbled and chomped on her lips. The poor teenager jumped in his seat who had no place to hide. "Y-you two...get a room!" His face was beet red.
Even Lihua felt disoriented for a mont. Wei smiled. "I like you the way you are."
She furiously blushed. "Wei you…"
Jiang Fai cleared his throat. "B-back to work!"
Lihua coughed. "Right. Fai Fai, give the draft once it's ready. It's ti to put a counter strike now," she slyly smiled.
---
Late at night, Lihua was working in front of her laptop where she was busy creating an anonymous account on Weibo. She thought for a mont about the userna and kept it as - Storyteller.
She grinned and opened the pictures of the comic draft that Jiang Fai sent her an hour back. She uploaded them on Weibo with the caption.
'Who wants to know what happens next?'
