Chapter 416: The Mafia King Kabe-dons His Ex-wife

"Alright. That's it for today," Ji Da Xia said as she completed her class. "There will be no assignments until Lihua passes the Math retest."

Lihua sobbed. "Thank you, Miss Ji!"

She noticed the bags under her eyes and asked, "Miss Ji. Are you not sleeping well? You look so tired."

Ji Da Xia lacked tears to shed. It was hectic. First, there was news about Wei's surrender, and then it quickly escalated to his hospitalization. She had a lot of things to handle to make sure that the company's and her Boss's image didn't take a hit.

The Boss she was talking about was right in front of her, staring at Lihua with a gentle smile on his lips, a doting gaze in his eyes and flowers blooming around his head.

Boss, have some pity on me, Ji Da Xia felt aggrieved. I am pulling out my hair here, and you have flowers all around you! I demand justice!

She smiled. "I am fine. I had a lot of work to do last night…" she cast an accusing stare at Wei.

"Don't worry. I can take care of myself. Anyway, if you need my help with Math, just let me know."

Wei pursed his lips.

"Haha. There is no need, Miss Ji. Liangshi is teaching me, and I swear he is so awesome. I never understood so much Math before in my entire life," Lihua cried in happiness.

"Oh…" she coughed. "Well, that's great. Good work, Liangshi."

"En."

After she left, Meng Ya chirped. "Hey, I have an idea! We will throw a great party after the retest! Lihua's passing needs to be celebrated, hahaha!"

And I will also show off my new 'boyfriend' to Renshu. Perfect timing!

Meng Ya looked at her phone and saw Fu Renshu's message he sent this morning where he had begged her to talk to him.

'Yaya, please pick up my phone. I am really sorry. Let's talk."

Fu Renshu could already see the evil plan churning in her mind as clear as day. He smirked.

Well, we will see about that.

Lihua nodded. "En. We should indeed celebrate. But first, I need to pass, so…" she glanced at Liangshi, "Let's continue with the studying."

Wei beamed. "En."

They set off towards the library, where Lihua said, "Wait. I will bring that textbook you mentioned yesterday."

"En."

She brushed her fingers along the rack and found the book she was looking for. But it was quite at a height. She tiptoed and tried to reach but fell an inch short of grabbing the book.

Aish!

"Mmnn…" she tiptoed again and tried.

Then she saw an arm grazing hers from above. She felt a warm presence behind her, and her breath hitched. Wei's big hand covered her small palm. His fingers easily reached the book.

Even after he took out the book, he remained in the same position, standing closer to her where he could smell the sweet fragrance of the shampoo she had used. Lihua slowly turned.

She lifted her gaze and found him staring at her just like he did when she bumped into him outside the bathroom in her apartment.

*Bathump!*

Her heart pounded, and she felt her cheeks heat up. Her irises darted left and right in a strange nervousness that she always felt with Wei.

"Th-thanks…." Her speech stuttered.

"My pleasure," he whispered with a little husky and breathy voice that made her own breath stop in her throat.

She waited for him to step back, but he didn't. Every second of their proximity was beginning to make her more aware of him. She knew she wasn't supposed to feel like this for him because her heart only beat for Wei. But strangely, she felt at ease whenever he was around her. It was very similar to Wei's presence.

The more she compared them two, the more she felt guilty.

But the thing she was most afraid of was the emotions that Liangshi riled inside her. It was impossible for her to fall for another man apart from Wei. She didn't want to betray her love for him.

But here, she felt her heart skip beats as Liangshi stood so close to her that his warmth gave her an urge to cry.

As she was lost in her thoughts, she felt a gentle touch on her face. His fingers felt soft as he brushed them against her cheek.

Wei leaned towards her. She took a step back that bumped her back on the book rack. There was already no space to move.

Lihua trembled, but she couldn't push him away. Her gaze met his that she couldn't tear away. His face got too close that it made her heart drum crazily. He bent even closer until his cheek slightly rubbed hers, making her shiver.

"Why are you so nervous?" He asked in a quiet tone.

"N-No...I am not n-nervous."

With his index finger, he gently poked her soft cheek. "Why are your cheeks so red?"

She was slightly breathless. "It feels a l-little hot, I guess…"

"The AC is working just fine."

Her brow twitched.

"Really? I think it's malfunctioning...we should complain to the librarian…" she mumbled.

Lihua stepped aside, but Wei quickly blocked her exit with his arm, his palm touching the rack. She had no way to escape. It was a classic "kabe-don" situation. And somehow, it made her flush.

"Lihua," he whispered her name.

His fingers traveled from her cheek to her chin, and he lifted it to make her face him. "Is it because of me?"

"W-What because of you?"

"Your cheeks. Are they red because of me?" He tilted his head.

She widened her eyes and stiffened.

"You... What are you saying? You aren't making any se-sense…"

Wei smiled. "En. Like how your red cheeks aren't."

"..."

"When it's supposed to be cold."

"..."

"It's strange. The temperature is just right."

Lihua gritted her teeth and glared at him. She urgently whispered. "Did you forget that I am pregnant? Maybe everything feels the opposite for me. Do you have any problem with that?"

Wei blinked his eyes and burst into a chuckle. "I see."

He stepped back and tapped on her nose. "You are really cute making that excuse."

"..."

You!
