Chapter 47 - The Mafia Kings Angel And Devil Sides
His words echoed in her ears like a sweet whisper. Wei slowly raised his hand. As his fingers brushed against her cheek, her heart loudly pounded in her chest. Lihua slightly jumped with the intimate contact, turning her face bright red.
"B-Boss...what do you.." she flustered in shyness.
Wei's sight traced her blushed cheek. He felt she looked cuter with red cheeks.
"It will be all... silent again if you leave. I like it when you talk."
Even Wei didn't understand when Lihua's presence kept on growing bigger and bigger in his life. It had been only a few days since he met her, but he felt as if he already couldn't live without her company. The gleam of her eyes and the laughter on her lips had wormed in his heart to its deepest roots.
He never minded the silence before. But now it pricked him. He hated the stillness in the air that was brought upon by her absence.
Lihua lowered her head.
Boss, don't you know that your words are so dangerous to my heart? I like you and you say such suggestive things like that... What if it gives me hope?
"Oh oh.." she felt her brain cells deplete. His cold fingers on her skin slowly reaching her hair were making every cell of hers tingle. "W-what should I do then...?" She asked in a soft voice.
"Stay with me.." His warm breath fanned her face.
Lihua nodded like a robot. Her body had become stiff just like her brain. Wei immediately felt that distaste disappear.
"En. Let's play Ludo."
Lihua blinked her eyes. "Ah? Ludo?"
"En. You said that you like playing Ludo right? So we will do that."
It was sudden but she didn't mind it. After all, they didn't have anything else to do anyway.
They continuously played Ludo for almost three hours before Lihua began to yawn drowsily. Though Wei lost most of the time, he was more than happy to see her win.
He noticed her head bobbing sideways. "I will bring some coffee."
"Ah, no Boss. Don't take the trouble.."
"It's no trouble. Sit."
Five minutes later, he came back but he saw that she was already sleeping. She was breathing evenly.
Wei kept the cup on the table and bent near her. He was about to shake her but then he paused.
If I wake her up then she will leave..I don't want that.
He looked at the time. It was indeed late and time for her to head home.
Wei decided to ask Yang Mingshen. Even though Lihua said not to ask him for any advice, he thought that Yang Mingshen was a good choice. He knew about women and all such stuff.
Wei promptly messaged him.
'Lihua is sleeping at my home. I don't want to wake her up so she leaves.'
'Are you sure you are a twenty-eight-year-old adult? You are actually itching for me to cut your body, right?'
'What should I do?'
'And now you are ignoring me huh? Think that yourself! Use your brain dumped into your skull! Is that just a decoration in your body?'
Wei pursed his lips. He typed.
'I don't know. That is why I am asking you.'
On the other end, Mingshen was boiling in anger. He had almost broken his phone under his crushing grip. He knew Wei wouldn't let it go until he got his answer.
He thought for a moment.
Ah, this is a good chance to extort some money for my experiments.
Mingshen sneered and felt victorious.
Wei waited.
*Ding*
'She is your woman so why are you asking!? Dump her into your bed.'
Wei widened his eyes. He glanced at the sleeping Lihua and beamed.
historical
'Really?'
'She is your woman. You are her man. Her bed, your bed, what's the difference?'
Wei furiously nodded at his explanation.
'This is not for free. Transfer two hundred million right now.'
Wei didn't waste a second more and Mingshen already got his 'fees.'
He snickered. "Such a fool. This is nice. I am an idiot. I don't have to spend any money from my pocket. I get insane money from his stupid questions."
Wei got a ping again.
'Ping me again if you have any questions. Of course in exchange for money.'
Wei was surprised by the sudden change in his tone. But he didn't think much of it.
'En.'
Wei looked at Lihua and saw that her lips were laced in a silly smile. He gently picked her in his arms and walked into his bedroom. He placed her on the bed, very slowly, not to wake her up.
As he heard her soft breaths, he couldn't tear his gaze away from her. From her eyelashes to her lips, he deeply burned all her features in his memory. A gulp passed down his throat as he gaped at her lips. A strong desire erupted in his chest like a volcano to kiss her.
Her lips were so soft..
At first, he touched them with his thumb slowly and steadily. But he wasn't satisfied. He wanted more. Wei leaned more and more towards her, bridging the gap between their lips.
Poof! An imaginary chibi angel Mafia King appeared on his left shoulder.
"Wei, she is not crying! You shouldn't kiss her. You only kiss when she cries."
Wei stopped. His brows furrowed in dissatisfaction and guilt. "E-En.."
Poof! Now an imaginary chibi devil Mafia King appeared on his right shoulder. He chuckled devilishly. "Who cares? She is sleeping. She wouldn't even know~"
Wei beamed and nodded. "Indeed."
The angel King glared at the devil King. "This is cheating! You are taking advantage of her!"
The devil King yelled. "Shut it whitey! Wei. Don't think so much. Just kiss! She is sleeping so soundly. She wouldn't notice at all."
"No Wei! What if she gets angry when she finds out? What if she wakes up? Do you want her not talking to you again?"
Wei felt further disheartened. "No..not angry again.."
The angel King nodded in satisfaction.
The chibi devil gritted his teeth. "But Wei, she is your woman! You are her man. It's normal for couples to kiss."
Wei furiously nodded and glanced at his angel. "He is right."
"No, he isn't! I won't stand for this betrayal."
"Shut up! Even if she gets angry, just bang your head again and she will forgive you. It worked the last time, right?" The devil slyly said.
