Lihua was Jiang Wei's wife now. Even her identity had been changed to Jiang Lixue.

Who was Lixue? She was Song Lihua, Song Jia's sister!

Xia Nuan was bewildered to the max. She had sent the letter which she had personally slipped in her house. She had clearly written Jiang family's name on it and Wei's real identity as the Mafia King because of whom Song Jia was in trouble.

How could Lihua agree to become his wife then? What was this whole thing about memory loss?

Didn't Song Lihua read the letter?

Xia Nuan bit her lower lip and narrowed her eyes. As she heard the conversation, she came to know that the staff wasn't allowed to approach Lihua. Wei even set special guards for it.

Staff…

Is it possible that he is doubtful of my disguise? Or maybe he caught Song Jia and learned her disguise through that.

Xia Nuan quietly stepped back and went back into her servant quarters. She locked the door and began pacing around the room, trying to figure out this whole mess.

She was damn frustrated. Xia Nuan had tried her best to investigate as discreetly as possible about Song Jia. But she didn't get any clue about her. She did think about the worst that Song Jia's identity might have been compromised, and she could be trapped or dead.

But Xia Nuan didn't want to believe it.

Song Jia was the best officer and a capable cop. She deeply respected her abilities. She couldn't fathom that she would get caught by the Mafia King.

Now with Lihua's sudden entry into the Jiang villa, she was hell confused.

Why would Jiang Wei even marry her? If hypothetically Song Jia isn't caught yet, then does that mean this marriage is a pure coincidence? He just unknowingly happened to marry the woman who is Song Jia's sister?

Xia Nuan did not believe in such coincidences.

Or maybe…

Lihua did read the letter, and she came here to investigate Song Jia?

The more she thought about it, the more it fit the situation. Out of coincidence and planning, she believed that it must be Lihua's plan to enter the villa.

But her memory loss didn't make any sense.

Maybe she changed her identity and faked memory loss so that Jiang Wei wouldn't be able to find her roots?

But was that possible?

The Mafia King's power stretched far and wide. Before marrying Song Lihua, wouldn't he have investigated her?

And did she really marry Jiang Wei or is this marriage fake?

Of course, Xia Nuan had also heard Lihua's declaration to the Old Madam about her acceptance in these six months. She wondered if it was all her drama to make it look like that she was serious about this marriage. She had to act her part of being Wei's wife not to cast any suspicion on her.

She had so many questions swirling in her mind, and she wanted to confirm her theory about her plan, but Wei had forbidden any of the staff members to approach her. She couldn't just casually go around and ask anymore.

Xia Nuan pressed her brows.

What should I do now?

---

Outside Wei and Lihua's master bedroom, the two thugs snatched the training materials from the maid. "Now get out!"

Lihua said, "Don't be so harsh. She is just doing her job. If she wants to talk to me, it's okay."

Suddenly, Lihua and the rest shuddered as if they were thrown into the Arctic. Goosebumps crawled on their skin as they felt chilly.

Why is it so cold suddenly?

They lifted their gaze and it met Wei's deep black irises that were coldly staring down upon the maid. The maid jolted and instinctively, she lowered her head as fear gripped her. She didn't know why, but she felt an oppressive pressure crush her. She felt breathless as if somebody was strangling her.

T-this…

"Wei!" Lihua beamed and brightly smiled.

The iciness from his gaze melted into spring, and the pressure disappeared into thin air. "Lixue…"

The two thugs straightened up in attention. "Boss!"

Fu Renshu narrowed his eyes at the maid and then at the Lihua. "What is happening here?"

"Oh, nothing! This maid just came here to deliver the training stuff for etiquettes," Lihua said.

"Then why are you still here?" Fu Renshu shot a dangerous glare at her. "Aren't you done?"

"T-that…" the maid stammered.

The two thugs said, "Boss! This maid was insisting on talking to Lady Boss! We told her that we will give the message, but she was adamant about not leaving!"

A dangerous flicker flashed past Wei's eyes. They glinted in threat and extreme bloodthirst.

The maid trembled and was close to bursting into tears.

"I-It's the Old Madam's order. She instructed me to properly e-explain everything to Madam...I am just following her orders. I-I will be punished if I fail so…"

Lihua chimed in. "Wei, it's alright! I know why you prohibited the staff from coming near me."

Wei froze. But he didn't let his reaction change his blank expression. Fu Renshu was taken aback too.

What does she know?

"Don't worry! I won't be bullied! You are worried that the staff might trouble me on Old Madam's orders, right?"

The trace of fear and anxiety quickly dissipated from Wei's eyes as he felt relieved.

"En," he nodded.

Fu Renshu silently let out a breath.

Phew! This woman just knows how to scare!

Lihua grinned. "I will be fine. I will not let anybody bully me!"

Wei softly smiled and kissed her forehead. "En."

The two thugs coughed upon seeing the dog food being thrown in their faces.

Don't torture us, Boss! We are still single!

A butler stepped in and bowed. "Young master. The Old Madam has requested your presence."

Fu Renshu frowned. "About what?"

"Miss Shi is here."

Lihua slightly widened her eyes.

The ex-fiance?

They all headed down and saw Ruomei standing gracefully in the lavish living room. Beside her, the Old Madam sat on the couch in her Matriarch's seat.

Ruomei's eyes sparkled as she saw Wei's majestic figure walk down. But it instantly turned cold upon seeing Lihua beside him.

The Old Madam announced. "Now that everybody is here, I would like to announce that from today onwards, Shi Ruomei will be living with us in the Jiang villa."
