The Mafia King's First Love
Chapter 350 - The Mafia King's Broken Promise
The following day, Lihua slowly opened her eyes and found a white ceiling above. Even after taking a good night's rest, she still felt sluggish and tired for some reason.
Her eyes were as blank as they were yesterday. Everything came crashing down to her, and she had no clue what to do with her life now.
Her sister was dead.
Her husband had killed her.
He erased her memories and betrayed her.
And now, she was pregnant.
But she couldn't feel delighted.. That guilt began to creep into her heart. Her baby was finally here, but she couldn't even smile any longer.
She had no strength to live with Wei anymore, who hurt her so much. But then what about the baby inside her?
Lihua felt something heavy on her hands, and she slowly lowered her head. She saw Wei asleep, his head resting on the bed near her hand. His fingers were lightly holding onto hers. She could see the faint trace of tears on his cheeks that had dried up by now.
Wei felt some movement, and his eyelashes fluttered. He jerked up as soon as he saw Lihua already awake.

"Lihua! You are awake. How are you feeling now? Is it painful anywhere? Should I call Mingshen?" The extreme worry was evident on his face that made her slightly tremble.
"...Painful? You are asking me if I feel pain anywhere?" She stared at him. "I am in pain, Wei. A lot. So much that my heart feels empty. You tell me. What am I supposed to feel? Should I mourn my sister's death? Or should I rejoice that I am going to be a mother?"
Wei froze.
"I feel as if I am a terrible sister if I forget her and celebrate my child's existence. But then…" a tear slipped down her eye, "I also feel as if I am a cruel mother that I am u-unable to feel happy for my baby. Which kind of a mother wouldn't be overwhelmed? You gave me the greatest joy but also the greatest sadness altogether. And now...I don't know what to do anymore. I cannot bear to live with a man who k-killed…" she choked, "my precious family and who fooled me into living as someone that I wasn't."
He felt his heart in his throat, and a nauseating feeling gripped his chest.
"But then I think about my child who has just started breathing. It's...hard, Wei. It's hard for a child to live without parents. I know because I have lived that life. I used to get bullied a lot for not having a mom and dad. The others used to laugh at me for just living with my sister."
Wei clenched his fists in anger, thinking about the bullies who hurt Lihua in the past. He would have killed each one of them had they been here.
"Our child doesn't deserve to suffer. I don't want to see him sad. You promised me Wei that we will always be together. We will visit the island with our children in the future."
She curled her fingers in her palm and stared at him, her eyes raging with accusations. "But you...you snatched everything away from me. There was no meaning to that promise the moment you killed my sister. There was no future between us. Everything...from the beginning when we first met, everything was a lie. You have been lying from the start. How did you expect that our marriage or our feelings had anywhere to go when it was standing on nothing but lies?"
But she turned away. "Don't touch me."
He stiffened.
"Please don't say that Lihua…I…will do anything but-"

"Anything? You cannot bring my sister back."
He couldn't respond.
"No matter how much money you have, no matter how much power you hold, you cannot defy death and bring her back…" She shook in grief, hurt by her own words.
"You cannot bring her from the dead no matter how much I want!" She furiously exclaimed. "And will it overlook the fact that you shot her!? Even if you could bring her back by some miracle, will it change that you tried to kill her in the first place? Why? Why did you kill her!? She has only done good things in her life. She has always been so kind and caring and just. Then why!? J-Just because she was investigating you?"
Wei lowered his gaze and remained silent.
"I know that...she is a cop. You belong to the Mafia. You stand on opposite sides of the law that cannot really mix. There were bound to get clashes. Bu-but did you try for a compromise? Sis Jia was never unreasonable. Grandma told me that the things you do in the Underworld have sometimes helped cops. Maybe you could have negotiated and reached a middle ground. Sis Jia would have definitely agreed! But did you try to do that?"
A fearful gulp passed down his throat.
Negotiation?
There was no place for any negotiations ever. It wasn't because Jia was investigating his Underworld activities. It was because she wanted the murderer of her parents.
There was no scope of adjustment. There was no place for any compensation.
"Sis Jia is smart," she sadly chuckled, "not a dumb woman like me who can be easily fooled."
Wei bit his lip hard.
Lihua's eyes grew wetter. "That's why I know...I know she would have understood you. If you had just talked to her...She might not like you because of your background as she was a cop. But if both sides came to a fair compromise, she would never back out. That's how she was. That's how she resolved matters. Instead of either winning or losing an argument, she would always strive to handle it such that nobody neither won nor lost. A fair deal to everyone. Tell me, did you talk to her!?"
Lihua got more agitated as tears streamed down.
"There…" Wei sharply gasped, "There was nothing to talk about. There wasn't any place for a middle-ground."
