Chapter 173 - The Mafia King Asks Reward For His Patience

No matter how much Li Tingzhe screamed, everything fell on deaf ears. The other business associates and reporters were shell-shocked to see Wei\'s tyranny. Li Tingzhe was going to suffer because he made Lihua cry.

They felt it was the right time to take their leave. The results were out anyway, and the reporters got a lot of dirt on Li Tingzhe and Kang Yuming. Ruomei\'s loss would be the headline in their papers.

As Li Tingzhe was dragged away, the Kang trio too, quickly ran away, not wanting to incur Wei\'s wrath.

Lihua sighed in relief.

Phew!

She hopped towards Jiang Xiurang\'s side and hugged her hard with a bright smile on her lips that rivaled the sun.

"Aunt! Congratulations! You are free! It\'s celebration time! I am so proud of you! Oof. That slap was so crisp. I loved it hehe…"

Emotions gushed in her heart and her gaze was warm. She patted her head. "Thank you, Lixue. It\'s only because of you."

She waved her hand. "It\'s because of your capable son who proved that age or degree is irrelevant when you have the skills to win."

That was a direct hit on Ruomei\'s ego who always claimed that Jiang Fai was too young to handle this and Lihua didn\'t even graduate. Her cheeks burned in embarrassment. Shi Zhen threw daggers at her.

"Let\'s go, Cuifen! We were here to celebrate her victory, not bear shame!"

Shi Cuifen looked at Ruomei in distress. "Zhen, how can you be so heartless? Win and loss are a part of any challenge. She should feel proud that she did her best."

"Doing her best should have made her win! Don\'t side with your daughter!"

The Old Madam murmured in frustration. "Such a disappointment!"

Ruomei bit her lip and tears pooled in her eyes. The ones who were showering her with praises were now condemning her. She turned and ran away to her room, unable to bear all this.

"Ruomei!" Shi Cuifen tried to stop her.

Shi Zhen grabbed her hand and pulled her away. "Forget about her already. I cannot show my face to anybody now and you are feeling pitiful for her?"

As they left too, Lihua couldn\'t help but sigh.

Why cannot parents look beyond reputation and status?

Even though Ruomei threatened to take her position, Lihua didn\'t really hate her. She merely considered her as an ignorant woman who could learn the difference between right and wrong. Truthfully according to her, Jiang Fai was much better than her even though he was way younger than her and just a teenager.

She genuinely thought that Ruomei did a good job with her proposal and gave her a tough fight. It was the right thing to appreciate her for her efforts.

Seems like only Mrs. Shi has a heart and a brain too…

Lihua let it go and pulled Jiang Fai into her hug. She squeezed him hard. "Fai Fai my boy! You made me proud!"

Wei nodded.

Jiang Fai had a lot of things going through his mind but right now, he felt only one emotion and that was gratitude towards Lihua.

"Thank you, sister-in-law. If not for your bold step, I would have never reached here."

The respect he had for her increased by miles. She was nothing less than an angel for him who pulled him out of his problems.

"Aweee, you are so cute!" She ruffled his head.

"Don\'t call me cute!" His face flushed in embarrassment.

"Good job."

He jolted upon hearing a deep voice from his side. He was surprised to see Jiang Weizhe. "U-Uncle…"

Jiang Weizhe stared at him and seemed to be in deep thought. He then slowly raised his hand and patted his head.

Jiang Xiurang looked at him with her mouth wide open.

Big brother is p-patting Fai!?

Even Jiang Fai went into a shock. More than feeling joyous by his Uncle\'s appreciation, he was frightened if it was a trap to beat him up.

"You did a good job."

Even the Old Madam couldn\'t contain her shock.

"Weizhe…"

He glanced at her and said nothing.

Lihua beamed and nodded in appreciation. "That\'s good Uncle! You and Uncle Weiyuan didn\'t stand up for Aunt all these years, so it\'s your duty to at least support her now!"

Her sharp words made Jiang Weiyuan choke in his throat. The attack was completely unexpected. His wife and family didn\'t show any reactions on the outside, though inwardly...was a different case.

Jiang Weizhe seriously nodded. "Indeed. Yubi told me to congratulate Fai. She is very happy for him and Xiurang."

Lihua and Jiang Fai - "..."

So it is the mother-in-law who had to tell you?

She sighed. She narrowed her eyes. "Uncle Weiyuan. I am sure you might have to say something too."

Jiang Xiurang coughed. He glanced at Jiang Fai and slowly whispered. "Good work."

Jiang Fai stood upright. "T-thank you Uncle Weizhe, Uncle Weiyuan…"

As the matter came to a close, Lihua dropped dead on the bed. "Oh my God! I was really worried there for a second."

Wei obediently sat beside her and hugged her. "Why so?"

"Of course. Ruomei did a good job and looking at her numbers, I was really doubtful for a moment," she pouted.

Wei smiled and gently flicked on her nose. "You didn\'t have to worry."

She sighed. "I couldn\'t help it. And then in the meeting, you agreed to my proposal just like that only because I am your wife. If I had failed, it would have affected your reputation too."

Wei tilted his head. "I did support you because you are my wife and as your husband, you are always my priority no matter what."

She blushed, hearing his buttery words.

"But I supported you as a CEO, too, who saw profit in any deal. Your proposal was indeed better and something fresher that would surely bring money to the business."

She widened her eyes. "R-really?"

"En. I trust my wife and her capabilities."

Lihua felt touched and a big grin lit her lips. "Hehe…"

Wei then suddenly climbed on top of her and lifted her chin. He leaned and his warm breath fanned her face as he huskily spoke, "Lixue. I had been patient all this time. Since you won the challenge, do you remember what we have to do?"
