Chapter 527: 527 Lihua's determination

Chapter 527 Lihua's determination　　Cheng Mei gazed at her silently. Jiang Ruiling wanted to bite her tongue.

Umm…why did I stop her?

She awkwardly smiled.

"H-How is…Mr. Cheng Ling? He hurt his back…"

"Fine. Resting."

"I-I see…"

"Anything else?"

"Well…no."

Cheng Mei turned to leave.

"No, wait!"

She stopped again.

"You see…I wanted to know…"

She raised her brow. Jiang Ruiling felt a little pressure. "Do you not like me?"

Cheng Mei narrowed her eyes.

She quickly said, "Is it because I misunderstood Mr. Cheng's identity? I am really sorry for that. Please forgive me. I didn't mean to insult him…" she cleared her throat.

Cheng Mei quietly said, "Yes."

She coughed.

Damn, I offended her.

"But I don't dislike you."

Huh?

Jiang Ruiling was confused. Cheng Mei had kept distance from her since the beginning. Only she didn't openly talk to her. She was even avoiding being with her.

And she doesn't dislike me?

"Rather…" Cheng Mei said, bringing her out of her stupor. "I don't know how to talk to you."

She blinked. "I don't understand. Why not?"

Cheng Mei was in deep thought. "You remind me of your mother."

???

"Jiang Ninghong. I know her. But for the spell I knew her, I disliked her the most."

Jiang Ruiling widened her eyes.

This was something new she was hearing.

"You know my mother?"

And wait, what about disliking Mom?

"She is the politician's daughter whose father had the most influence. Of course, the Cheng family knew about her."

"Oh…y-yeah," she coughed. "So, why do you not like her?"

She was quiet. Then she slowly said, "She tried to do something outrageous to Ling years back."

"Huh, huh? Mom knows sister-in-law's father too?"

"Yes. For a short spell. Then she planned something that I absolutely detested."

Her mouth twitched.

M-Mom? What would Mom do so horrible to Mr. Cheng?

"Though it has been years now since that incident," Cheng Mei calmly said, "However…sometimes I don't find myself able to forgive her."

Mom, just what did you do?

"So, I don't know how to face you. You remind me of her."

Jiang Ruiling was at a loss. "I…"

"Now, if you will excuse me. Good night."

"..."

She felt as if she could finally breathe.

Was I holding it all this time?

She scratched her chin.

Mom and Mrs. Cheng know each other and Mom did something unforgivable to Mr. Cheng. What could it be?

A few days later.

Today was the day. Lihua banged Jiang Zhen's door endlessly early morning.

Ruru was the first to wake up as he stepped out of his room, rubbing his eyes.

Qingqing, who was resting on Lihua's shoulder, was in a bad mood.

Did you have to choose such early morning to make your point, stupid human!

"Open the door. Open the door, you coward!"

Ruru trotted towards Lihua and hugged her legs with his best friend, his teddy bear. Lihua beamed. "Ruru. Good morning!" She kissed his cheeks.

"...Good morning."

She coughed. "I am sorry for waking you up like this. But I have something important to talk to your father!"

She banged on the door again. "Open the door, Jiang Zhen! Or are you scared?"

The maids rushed, horrified. "Miss. Song! Please don't-"

The door creaked open and Jiang Hua came out. "You…"

She was suddenly pulled away, and a dark gaze made her shudder. "Get inside."

She stiffened and promptly stepped aside. Jiang Zhen then looked at Lihua and smiled. "And what do I have here? Since when did my dear Song Lihua thought of approaching me first? And so early morning? I would have appreciated it more…" he chuckled, "if you had banged this passionately on my door last night. We would have had a good time."

Jiang Hua trembled. She bit her lip and lowered her head.

"Who the hell wants to have good time with you!? I came here to tell you that I will stop your filthy illegal businesses!"

He blinked. "What?"

"Don't pretend innocence! I am talking about drugs and prostitution."

He tilted his head. "Didn't I say that I will stop the prostitution business?"

She narrowed her eyes. "Have you really stopped it?"

"Why are you questioning it? Ah…Did Grandpa Weisheng supposedly tell you something?"

She gritted her teeth. "Just say yes or no!"

Jiang Zhen folded his arms and leaned on the door. "What do you think?"

"I knew it. That challenge meant nothing to you. You were just toying with me. You had never thought of fulfilling your end of bargain!"

"And at this point, I wonder your intelligence. Do you really think I will put a halt on my one of the most luxurious businesses over a game of Ludo and chess? But I felt bad for fooling you, so I kept one part of the deal. I didn't touch the women you freed that day. Let's say it was your award for my entertainment."

"Don't be so arrogant, Jiang Zhen. You won't be able to laugh like this for long."

"Hoo? And how?" He was immensely interested in her.

"I will stop your businesses!" She declared. "You sell drugs and women, right? I will make it so that you won't HAVE anything or anyone to sell anymore."

He stared at her in a stupor. "Won't have anything to sell? You think you can stop drugs manufacturing?"

She snorted. "No, idiot. I will hit on your supply and demand. You will see."

Jiang Zhen couldn't control his laughter anymore. "You…you say some interesting things, Song Lihua. Do you understand what you are talking about? Or do you want some fresh air? Maybe you have just slightly…lost your mind," he smiled.

"We will see who will lose their mind in the future," she smirked.

"And you are here because?"

"Because I want to get out of this house. If you are so confident that I cannot budge your Underworld at all, then give me the freedom to step out of this house."

"Impossible."

She sneered. "Oh? The great Mafia King got scared of a lone woman's challenge?"
