《The Mafia King’s First Love》The Mafia King's First Love

It was clear from his words alone that Wei's hold over the Underworld was so strong that nobody could challenge it. Even if he was stripped of his title and position, the Underworld would still follow only him.
Getting hit at the sore spot, the Old Madam's expression turned quite ferocious. Indeed, Wei was doing the best job as the leader. But despite that, she didn't want to lose her hold over anything. He was dangerous and at the time, a charismatic leader. He was the thread holding everything together.
Lihua grimaced.
Learning all the etiquettes seems such a pain…
"I will do it."
Wei lowered his gaze and frowned. He knew how free and unrestrained she liked to live. It didn't change even after her memory loss.
She smiled. "Yes, Wei. She is right. I am the daughter-in-law now. Of course, it's my duty to meet the standards."
His lips pursed in a straight line.
She knew that the Old Madam must have planned some hellish training to torture her, so she wasn't going to back out. She gave a reassuring nod to Wei.
As the breakfast continued, Lihua quietly observed the other family members. Apart from the Old Madam who admonished her last night and Jiang Weizhe who supported her, there were seven more members.
She sneaked a glance at the side to look at the young man who just showcased his etiquettes on the Old Madam's order.
He looks really young. Maybe a teenager?
It was evident from his expression how much he disdained her. Even at the time when he showed her the manners, he was constantly sneering and mocking her.
Her sight then shifted onto a middle-aged woman who sat beside him. She looked in her mid-forties and Lihua instantly understood that the young man was her son. They resembled a lot. But that woman seemed to be uncomfortable for some reason. It was faint but she sensed a sort of restlessness from her.

I wonder why is she so nervous? But she is definitely his mother. So, how is she related to Wei? Aunt maybe…?
She shifted her gaze from the mother-son to a handsome man who held an icy expression on his face. Clad in a white shirt and black suit, he looked extremely attractive and elegant and his sharp facial features matched the frosty tone of his expression. He gave off a noble and aristocratic aura like how Wei emanated one similar to a King. His irises were unfeeling and unbothered. There was a light hint of resemblance between him and Wei and he seemed around the same age as him too.
Beside him sat a beautiful woman - dainty, enigmatic and delicate. Lihua's mouth was wide open, seeing this ethereal fairy who felt as if came down from heaven to grace the earth. Every pore of her skin screamed how refined she was.
Is she even a human? She is so stunning! Wait a minute...I don't think I saw her last night, she wondered.
Lihua thought back to yesterday and recalled that when she bowed to the family members to support her proposition, she didn't see this woman at that time.
Her porcelain-like skin was fair and pale. She had breathtaking brown eyes that simply looked perfect. She wore a soft smile on her lips that accentuated her complexion. Her slender figure was graceful and petite.
Then Lihua's sight fell onto another woman, young and beautiful with a similar sense of iciness radiating from her as the handsome man who sat beside the ethereal fairy. She carefully cast an alternative gaze at them and felt that they resembled each other.
Oh! They must be brother and sister!
The woman's beauty was the sort that could easily pass her as the campus belle of any college. With a charming and mysterious persona, she emitted a dignified aura. Even though she looked expressionless, Lihua felt a sense of scorn in her deep black eyes as if she treated everybody beneath her.

Next to her sat a middle-aged man accompanied by a woman who by no means looked middle-aged at all. The man was strikingly similar to Jiang Weizhe whose youthful handsomeness could easily rival a man in his twenties. He held a poise and calmness in his demeanor that was exactly like Jiang Weizhe. With an unhurried pace, he ate elegantly holding his chopsticks. His eyes gave away nothing that could help anyone have even the slightest hint of his thoughts.
The last was the woman who accompanied him. Lihua got the feeling that she was his wife. It made sense. Unknowingly, she felt a shudder run down her spine. It was her gaze - cold and calculative as if she saw through everything. Instinctively, Lihua felt to keep her distance from this woman.
But I cannot because I have to win everybody's heart here. And man does everybody look so uptight here! This is so suffocating…
Last but not least was Jiang Weizhe who was the only one who supported her last night. Lihua was honestly curious as to why he did so because it was clear that even before her memory loss, she hadn't met any family members. Her identity was a sort of a clandestine secret to the Jiang family.
Now then... wait a minute.
She glanced at everybody again and more or less, she understood the family relationships purely because of genes and resemblance.
The Jiang family genes run really strong huh…
She couldn't understand one thing. But somehow she felt she shouldn't ask her questions in front of everyone.
As soon as the breakfast got over and the Old Madam left first, everybody followed and went their own way. Only Wei and Fu Renshu were left.
Fu Renshu wiped the sweat off his forehead. "Phew!"
Lihua sprang up to her feet and said, "Okay! I have questions!"
"About?" Wei asked.
"All the family members. But before that, I have another question. Where is mother-in-law? I saw my father-in-law, but she wasn't here. Also what about the teenager's mother's husband?"
