*Flashback continued*

Naturally, Shi Ruomei was over the moon. She was going to marry the man of her dreams. She shyly sneaked glances at Wei, who was busy reading something on his phone.

Shi Zhen smiled. "It is our honor, Old Madam that you chose my dear Ruomei for your grandson. We feel so fortunate that she will be the Jiang's family daughter-in-law."

The Old Madam said, expressionless, "I will only choose a suitable and refined woman for this family who matches our status and uphold the Jiang's family honor. The Shi family has a good foothold in the business and I will only approve of the ones who match our level."

Shi Zhen nodded. Happiness bubbled inside him. The Jiang and Shi family were going to be soon tied together by marriage. That would mean his respect and status in society would increase a hundred folds. He wasn't any less influential himself, but the Jiang family was just on another level and a tie-up with such a giant family meant only more fortune.

He smiled as he looked at Wei. "I must say, Wei and my Ruomei look so good together."

Ruomei shyly blushed and lowered her head.

"Don't you agree, Wei? I know that this marriage talk came a little suddenly, but I hope you don't mind taking Ruomei as your wife."

Wei, who didn't take his eyes off his phone even for a moment ever so slightly nodded his head as he heard somebody take his name.

Shi Zhen sighed in relief while Ruomei's heart bloomed in joy.

The Old Madam narrowed her eyes. "Shi Zhen. You don't need to ask Wei's opinion. It is I, who will decide it."

He stiffened. "O-of course, Old Madam. I am just happy to know that Wei agrees to this too."

Fu Renshu inwardly sighed.

So Miss Shi will be Boss's wife huh? Honestly, I don't like her that much for Boss. Boss should have someone who could stand beside him to support him as the Mafia King. Someone fiery and strong. Miss Shi is so delicate.

But Boss has agreed to it too. Not like I can do anything anyway…

*Flashback ends*

Fu Renshu expectantly asked, "See? You remember right? The part where Mr. Shi asks you if you are fine taking Miss Shi as your wife? And you nodded your head?"

Please say yes. Please say yes! Boss, I beg you, please say yes!

Wei said, "I do. I nodded my head."

Fu Renshu collapsed on his seat, feeling relieved. Which was short-lived.

"But I didn't nod my head to what he said about taking Shi Ruomei as my wife."

He froze.

"I remember he asked, 'Don't you agree, Wei?' I nodded my head to that."

Fu Renshu rapidly blinked his eyes. Fear gripped his chest as he gulped and asked, "W-what did you exactly agree with, Boss?"

Suddenly, it came to his mind how Wei was unusually more focused on his phone during the marriage discussion. He was watching something really attentively. But Fu Renshu didn't dare to peek.

Now that I remember it, Boss didn't even raise his head as he had nodded back then.

"I agreed to how beautiful Lihua looked in the picture," Wei calmly said.

"!!!"

His eyes popped out of his sockets. His body violently trembled at the revelation. He had to take the support of a pillar to stand on his feet.

Please... somebody bring a stretcher...I think I am getting a heart attack.

"Boss...so with such deep focus and attention, were you looking at Song Lihua's picture at that time!?"

"En," Wei softly smiled. "It was Lihua's picture I found from Song Jia's phone. She looked really pretty. No, not just at that time. Lihua is always pretty."

Speechlessness was an understatement of what Fu Renshu felt right now.

So...so Boss nodded his head in a daze because he was lost in Song Lihua's beauty!? He didn't agree to the engagement. He agreed with how pretty she looked!

No wonder Boss was always so indifferent about his engagement this whole time! He wasn't even aware that he had already been set up with Miss Shi!

"So-so you really didn't know about the engagement…" He slumped back in defeat.

Wei sternly said, "No. Lihua is my woman. I would never agree to take another woman as my wife."

"But at that time, you hadn't met Song Lihua yet!"

"But I've wanted her ever since I saw her picture in Song Jia's phone. Also, I was never interested in that other woman," he tranquilly stated as if it wasn't a big deal.

Fu Renshu shed tears of blood. He cried. "B-But Boss now what? Tonight, you have to be present at the Jiang villa for your engagement ceremony with Miss Shi! The preparations are already halfway done. Miss Shi is already getting ready. Invitations have been sent to the guests. They shall start coming in after six PM. What will we do now? Boss, you have to be here or else…"

Wei plainly said, "I cannot be there. I have to celebrate my special day with Lihua."

"Huh? What is the special day?"

A warm smile tugged his lips upwards. "One month anniversary. This was the day when I met Lihua for the first time last month."

"..."

"I made a surprise for Lihua this evening."

Fu Renshu was horrified. "But-but the engagement! Boss, this will not end up in a good way! If you fail to attend the engagement ceremony tonight, then the Old Madam...she will never forgive you for this! She was already so offended at you because you weren't present during the engagement discussion. Boss...the groom's absence tonight will cause a huge stir! You are also the Mafia King and as such, there is a huge responsibility of Jiang's family reputation on you. The Old Madam will not let this slide!"

Although, if Boss had done something to cancel the ceremony, it would have still been big news, but the effects of his absence will be even more unprecedented! He thought.

Wei blinked his eyes. "Never forgive me? So? I don't mind. I mind only when Lihua is mad at me."

Even the blood tears dried up and Fu Renshu was in a huge dilemma. "Boss, please if you could come tonight…"

"No. I have plans with Lihua," he said in an emotionless manner.

"But the Old Madam…"

"I will call and inform her that I won't be there tonight," he nodded.

He almost tripped on his own feet, feeling horrified. "No! No, Boss! You cannot call the Old Madam!"

Wei's brows furrowed. "Renshu, don't waste my time. I have to complete the preparations here and then pick Lihua too. You will get me late."

"Boss-"

"Enough," his icy voice cut him off, making Fu Renshu shudder in fear.

"Nobody will disturb me tonight. There is no question of my engagement with that woman. I do not want to discuss this anymore."

Wei hung up after that. Fu Renshu didn't have the guts to call him again. If he did, he would have his head rolled off from his body.

Ahhh!!! What should I do? Somebody please help me!

---

At her home, Lihua lazily dragged her feet towards the cupboard and pulled out a dress. Her gaze dimmed as she thought of attending Wei's engagement ceremony. A tear slid down, but she quickly wiped it off.

No Lihua. Be strong. You have to smile and give your blessings to Boss for a good life. Also, you cannot curse Shi Ruomei, okay?

"If something happens to her because I cursed her, Boss will be really sad. I hope she loves Boss and doesn't waste his money…"

*Ding*

As Lihua opened the door, she found Wei standing before her, carrying a rectangular box in his hands.

"Boss...I am just getting ready…" her voice was downcast and tired.

Wei nodded. "En. I have brought you a dress for that."

He handed the box to her. Lihua was taken aback. "A new dress?"

"En."

"T-That is not needed."

"It is. Today is a special day. So, you have to wear a special dress," he smiled.

It was actually Bobo's idea. When Wei told him about his anniversary celebration, Bobo said, "Wow! You are actually not that dumb huh? Don't forget to buy a new dress for Lihua! She will be super happy!"

Unaware of Wei's intentions, Lihua faintly smiled and accepted it. "I will get ready."

"I will wait."

When she went inside to change and opened the box, Lihua was stunned to see a beautiful violet dress studded with breathtaking laces and design. It was an off-shoulder dress with lovely frills at the bottom.

Her eyes watered. She recalled the violet earrings and she felt pain prick her chest.

Again violet…Will Boss take this dress away from me too? She sadly smiled.

A while later.

As the door opened and Lihua stepped out, Wei's gaze landed on her. He froze. At her beautiful sight, he felt his breath stuck in his throat.
