Chapter 311 – The Mafia King Spills His Surprise
"I see…" Lihua said as she got a gist from Fu Renshu.
She smiled. "I have full trust in you, Wei. You will definitely find him in no time. And before he could attack us, we will barge into his territory and free Grandpa!"
He nodded.
Fu Renshu had nothing left to report so he quickly left. His next mission was to quickly give orders to all the gangs to keep an eye on any movements in the Underworld that would pose a threat to Wei. Now, thanks to Meng Ya listening to Lihua's voice, he had an additional headache to placate her somehow before she made any attempts to escape again.
Escape…Damn! You better not do anything foolish, Meng Ya!
Back in the study, Lihua rested her head on Wei's shoulder and sighed. Wei slightly knitted his brows. "Is something bothering you?"
Lihua pursed her lips.
"I don't know. I have been feeling a little restless since last night. It's not only because of Grandma and Grandpa but…I cannot point it out, but I am just feeling uneasy," she pouted, "It feels like I am missing you even though you are right next to me."
Wei put his hand on her forehead and said, "You don't have a fever."
He wondered if she was too tired. Lihua had been working really hard by taking everybody's matters into her hands.
Lihua tugged his shirt. "I physically feel fine. But…how should I put it?" Her gaze dimmed. "I am getting a gnawing feeling in my heart ever since I learned how Grandma and Grandpa stayed apart for so long. They missed so many things like raising their children, then their grandchildren together. They dreamt of living together and spending their life together. But fate brought such a cruel long separation for them. It must have been so painful…I don't know how Grandma handled it. She is really brave. But…" tears pooled in her eyes, "I would not be able to become that brave if we ever got separated."
Wei widened his eyes. He straightened up and cupped her face as he solemnly bored his gaze into hers. "What are you saying, Lixue? We will never get separated. Nobody can break us apart. We will always, always live together."
She wiped the corner of her eyes. "Really? I cannot shake this bad feeling off my chest."
A frown settled on Wei's handsome face.
If that bad feeling had been a person, Wei would have made it disappear from the face of this world in no time.
He kissed her chin. "Why are you thinking this? I am not going anywhere away from you."
The tip of her nose slightly turned red. "I don't know why I am thinking this. I really don't want to…" she lowered her head, feeling downcast. "I feel stupid about thinking such sorrowful things. I know that nothing will ever happen that will force us to stay apart."
Song Jia flashed in his mind for a moment, and he couldn't help but stiffen. But he quickly discarded that thought.
"But these thoughts are not going away. That's why I want to hug you a lot today!" She tightly wrapped her arms around him and pressed herself against him.
Wei felt his heart constrict, seeing her so downhearted. He didn't wish to see her so sad. He always loved to see her cheeky and smiling face.
Wei lifted her chin and smiled. "I will take you somewhere today."
Lihua blinked her eyes. "Where?"
"I had planned a surprise for you for our six months anniversary on an island."
Lihua looked at him, stunned.
"I will take you there today, and we will spend the whole day together. Today, we will not think of anything else."
"B-But…" she suddenly couldn't gather her words. In a few days, their marriage would complete six months and of course, Wei wanted to have a special celebration with her.
He patted her head. "You have worked hard for everyone. Maybe that's why you are feeling tired and having bad thoughts," he seriously said, "I don't want you to think about any bad things. There would be only the two of us on the island."
She anxiously said, "Why did you spill your surprise to me? You were supposed to take me there on our anniversary…"
He smiled. "Because right now and always, your smile is the most important to me. I know you will love the island, and you will definitely enjoy the sea. If it makes you happy now, then I will take you there right away. The surprise won't hold any meaning for me if you have to wait to smile again."
Lihua could feel all her worries and all those nasty feelings disappearing in an instant with his reassuring words.
"Really…what good deeds did I do to get a husband like you?" She felt an urge to cry even more now.
A warm smile lifted his lips, and he kissed her forehead. "It's me who must have done some good deeds to meet you."
Aishh!!
She hugged him hard again and pecked his lips. "You are the best!"
But she felt bothered. "But there are such tensions in the family with Grandma and Jiang Shan. How can we leave her when there is such an atmosphere at home?"
Wei pinched her cheek. "You have thought a lot about others for the past months. Don't worry. We will come back tomorrow. It's just for a day. Until then, Renshu, Dad and Uncle will find more about Jiang Shan. Everything will be fine at home."
Hearing this, Lihua felt a lot better. Indeed, it wasn't an easy thing to dig about Jiang Shan.
If she was being very honest, she did wish to spend some time with Wei alone and especially today when she was feeling so lonely. She had an urge to keep Wei all to herself just to reassure herself that he was there with her.
She beamed and smiled. "En! Okay! Let's go to the island!"
Wei chuckled. "Alright.. I will arrange for the chopper right away."
