Chapter 371 – The Mafia King Requests Meng Ya

Meng Ya could hardly believe her eyes to see that the man who never liked to talk to anybody else but Lihua and who seemed always to ooze an unapproachable and cold aura was now bowing in front of her and apologizing to her.

"I had no intention of hurting you. But I was scared that you would tell her the truth, and then I would lose her. That's why I couldn't help but get anxious."

She stared at him, stunned and in silence. But then she had a solemn look on her face as she said, "Jiang Wei. Your sorry won't compensate for the time I lost with Lihua or how you made me worried sick about her. I had to stay imprisoned in a house. It was against my will, but I had to bear it because of you."

Wei said nothing.

Meng Ya folded her arms. "But I can still forgive you for what you did to me."

His slowly widened as he lifted his gaze towards her.

"But I cannot ever forgive you for hurting Lihua! You killed sis Jia. Do you think you could ever repent for your sin!? You lied to Lihua. You betrayed her. I can, for once, let go of how you treated me. But I cannot forgive you for bringing Lihua to this state!"

Tears rolled down her cheek, and she glowered at him in disgust. "Trust me, Jiang Wei. If not for her child, she would have already collapsed into despair. She is forcing herself to remain strong so that she can give a good life to her child. And now she is trying for a new beginning. It is crushing her from within to do it without you."

He felt his heart throb in grief. It was excruciating to see her fight like this.

"Does she… really hate me now?" He blankly asked.

"No. She loves you a lot," she said in a quiet voice.

He trembled.

"That's why she is so tired. She understands your love for her. She knows she would never find a man like you who treated her so well. But the misery is that she cannot hold onto that love anymore because you snatched her sister from her."

Meng Ya let out a sorrowful chuckle. "It would have been so much easier for her to hate you if you really were a bastard. But as far as your love is concerned, you treated her like a Queen. But now her King is gone, and she feels alone. She is confused and conflicted. I-I never saw her like this before… It's because of you that she is suffering so much. That's why I cannot forgive you."

Wei stared at her outraged expression. He faintly smiled. "Lihua has a really good friend."

Meng Ya blinked her eyes.

"Thank you for caring so much for her."

He really appreciated that she was standing up to him, fearless and confident, who was only worried about Lihua's wellbeing. There weren't many people who had the strength to talk like that to him, even if they may be right.

That's why he was happy to know that Meng Ya was so good to her.

His gaze dimmed. "I am really sorry for troubling you all this time. Lihua might blame herself that it happened because you got involved with her life."

She slightly coughed.

That silly woman indeed felt guilty…

She stared at him.

Wei pursed his lips. "But please be there for her. It's my fault, so please punish me as much as you want."

Meng Ya harrumphed. "You don't need to tell me. I will always be there for my bestie! Now, I will take my leave. I suggest you leave too. If she sees you, then it won't be nice."

He bit his lip.

She turned, but he quickly stopped her. "W-wait!"

She softly let out a sigh. "What is it now?"

Wei took out a bag and handed it to her. She slowly held it and looked inside.

"I-I brought some fruits for Lihua. I read some articles and made a list of all the fruits it's good for her to eat during pregnancy. It will energize her too."

She glanced at him.

Wei hesitated and nervously shifted in his place. "Will you give it to her wi-without telling her that it's from me? She won't accept it…"

Strike!

Meng Ya suddenly realized why Lihua fell in love with him.

His face…

It was too lethal for anybody's heart.

She cleared her throat. "Alright. But just this once…"

"Thank you. I have brought some other necessities too if you could give her…"

And what was supposed to be just one bag of fruits turned out to be four more big bags filled with all sorts of stuff that she could only stare at with her eye sockets popped out.

This…

"This is too…"

Wei nodded. "I know. It's too little."

"…"

She was speechless.

Too little what the hell! Have you bought the entire city!?

"But I grabbed important necessities first," he seriously said. "With this, Lihua will be more comfortable."

Ugh…

She looked at his expectant gaze, and her mouth twitched.

"You-you know that she doesn't want your help."

He stiffened, and his shoulders drooped in sadness.

Ughhh! Alright! Stop making that face!

Meng Ya wished to pull her hair out. She felt as if she was doing some blasphemy if she rejected him. She grabbed the bags and said, "Now leave!"

Wei was hesitant, but he could only nod. He could do nothing even if he felt sad parting from here.

"I am back!"

Lihua glanced at her and widened her eyes. "Didn't you say that you were just going back to your home? Why are there so many bags with you?"

Meng Ya coughed. "I brought this for you! Now that you are pregnant, I thought to bring some basic necessities for you. There are a lot of things to be taken care of when you are pregnant."

"But I would have bought it myself," she anxiously said, "This would have costed-"

"Oof. Don't think so much. Don't I have the right as your friend? Matter over. I am heading to the kitchen to cook! So don't disturb me."

She dashed away before Lihua could question anything more about it.

Lihua sighed and looked through the stuff in the bags. She paused and looked at all the things again.

Her movements slowed down, and she stared towards Meng Ya, who was busy prepping, with an unreadable expression.
