Chapter 448: The Mafia King Questions Xian Xue

As soon as Wei returned, the first thing he did was order his guards to investigate the mansion. But they came back, empty-handed.

"Boss. There are no signs of any intrusion in the mansion. No forced entry. Neither did we feel anybody's presence."

His eyes glinted with coldness. "Footage?"

One of them shook his head. "Since the electricity was off, there is no footage recorded of that time. We examined it before the lights went out, but there wasn't anything out of the ordinary. There wasn't anybody present except you and Madam."

"And how did the lights go out?"

"The main supply wire got burnt…"

"So suddenly?"

"We investigated it too but didn't find that it was tampered with."

Wei propped his arm on the chair and cast a threatening look at his subordinates. "So you mean to say that Lihua was mistaken?"

The guards trembled in fear. Nobody had the guts to say that she might be really mistaken!

It was dark, and Lihua might have gotten scared, so maybe she imagined it. But nobody dared to say it out loud.

Everybody knew how the doting husband couldn't stand listening to a word against his wife!

They began sweating.

Fu Renshu came in and saw the pitiful state of the guards. He shook his head. "Boss. There is no news of Jiang Shan entering China."

Wei trusted Fu Renshu's extensive investigative skills. If he said that Jiang Shan wasn't in China, then there was no reason not to believe it.

"Xian Xue?"

"I questioned him, too, Boss. But he feigns ignorance over everything. He is accusing Shen Yang all the time. He is not responding to any of the torture either."

Wei stared at him. Then he slowly got up and walked towards where he was detained.

Xian Xue was a bloody mess. His wrists were tied with chains. There were numerous torture marks on his body. Blood was dripping from his face and chest.

Shen Yang stood in attention as Wei stepped in. He bowed. "Boss."

Wei calmly stood before Xian Xue. "When did you bring Jiang Shan to China?"

Xian Xue raised his head. "Why don't you ask that question to the Chief, Boss?" He sneered. "You are wasting time, and you are interrogating the wrong person."

Shen Yang remained calm even when he was being accused.

Wei tilted his head. "Do you know that Jiang Shan was at the mansion last night?"

"No."

Wei leaned before him. "I have very limited patience because he had reached so close to Lihua."

His voice was quiet, but it carried a dangerous ripple in it.

"You haven't answered about throwing the disguised clothes in the trash."

"The neighbor had lied."

"You refused to say the reason for your absence on that same day."

"And I will still refuse to say as it is my personal business. You control my job, Boss, not my life."

Wei was unfazed with the disrespect.

Shen Yang glared at him. "Xian Xue. You are before the Boss. Show some respect."

"It's better than you standing there, two-faced, Chief," he sneered. "Acting all loyal but who would be the first to stab his back."

Shen Yang pressed his brows, tired.

Wei stared at him hard. "Did you bring Jiang Shan to China?"

Xian Xue returned his gaze and stared hard right back at him. "No."

What a tough mole, the guards thought.

They had tortured so many moles until now, and after just a bit of pain and bloodshed, they would start spilling all the secrets. But Xian Xue was a pain in the ass.

They didn't know if they should get annoyed or commend Jiang Shan for finding such a resilient man.

Wei remained unmoved. Then he turned and soundlessly left the room with an unreadable expression.

Since Wei no longer now accompanied Lihua as 'Huang Liangshi', Lu Bojing took the responsibility of taking her to and fro her campus. There were some formalities left for her to take care of regarding her graduation.

She sighed as she looked at Lu Bojing. "Will you seriously accompany me everytime?"

Lu Bojing was startled. He pursed his lips and was on the verge of tears. "Y-yes...it's my job as a doctor…"

But now he felt that he wasn't protecting her merely out of Mingshen's orders. Lihua had always been gentle and kind to him like an elder sister. She was the first person to stand up for him and not laugh at him for his feminine face or his likes towards cute things. So, he genuinely wanted to help her in his own way.

"Okay, okay, don't cry!" She pouted."I just don't want to bother you."

"Y-you are not a bother at all!" He cried.

Lihua felt her heart tug with his cute expression. "Aiya, you look super adorable-"

She felt somebody bump into her, but Lu Bojing quickly caught her. She saw a tall figure before her, clad in all black. He was almost the same height as Wei.

For some reason, Lihua felt really ominous to see him dressed in all black. The man was staring down at her, his gaze unreadable.

Lu Bojing shivered and felt uncomfortable. Lihua scratched her chin. She didn't know who bumped into who.

"Won't you apologize?" The man's deep voice pointedly said.

Lihua blinked. "For?"

"Pushing me," he narrowed his eyes.

"..."

"Excuse me. Nobody really knows who pushed who, so why should I apologize? Since it was an accident, we should both say sorry."

He rapidly blinked his eyes as if he heard something really strange.

"Sorry...and me?" He squinted his eyes.

"Yes."

"Are you saying that I should apologize?"

"I said that we both should apologize to each other."

Lu Bojing didn't know if Lihua felt it or not, but he clearly felt chilly.

His lips curved into a sinister smile. "You are misunderstanding something about me. I don't apologize because I am never wrong."

Lihua was furious. Who the hell does he think he is!?

But she maintained her smile. "Excuse me? If my eyes are still working fine, then I can see that you are clearly a human. And humans do make mistakes. Don't act like you are God.. If you won't apologize, then don't expect one from me either."
