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

After they separated, Jiang Xiurang never bothered to look good ever since the tragedy happened. She didn't make any effort towards herself.
But now, he was utterly smitten by her. Kang Yuming obviously noticed him staring at her dumbfounded and attracted to her. That created even more hatred in her heart.
This bitch! She dolled up on purpose to humiliate me!
She bit her lip and quickly rushed up to her. "Xiurang. I am sorry. I-I really didn't want to come with Tingzhe and make you feel hurt. But he insisted so I couldn't…" her soft, strained voice would make anybody feel pitiful for her.
Jiang Xiurang froze. It was after so many years that she finally met them face to face. And it only brought bad memories to her. She trembled and tears threatened to escape her eyes.
Jiang Fai yelled. "Get away you bitch!"
Lihua said, "Your whole existence has done nothing but hurt her ever since you seduced Mr. Li, the cheater. Why are you just feeling apologetic for tonight? Can you get any more hypocritical?"
Kang Yuming's face flushed red in embarrassment. "I…"
She tearfully glanced at Li Tingzhe who was still mesmerized by Jiang Xiurang. She stiffened.
"T-tingzhe...I should leave…" she sounded distressed. "I am being a bother."
It broke his stupor and he cleared his throat. Kang Yuming's pitiful expression made his heart ache. He coldly said, "It was my decision. You won't go anywhere."
Lihua rolled her eyes at their drama. She squeezed Jiang Xiurang's palm. "Be strong and confident. They cannot hurt you anymore."
She felt warm by her words. It gave her strength and she gently nodded.
"By the way, I have brought someone who you two will be really happy to meet," Lihua winked.

Li Tingzhe frowned.
"My husband has found the best divorce lawyer. Once Fai Fai wins, we can immediately proceed with the process."
The Old Madam stomped her stick hard. "Lixue! What is the meaning of this!?"
"Well we did agree that Aunt will divorce this cheater if we win, right? I am just making the arrangements. Just like how you have already ordered the maids to already pack her bags," she smiled.
The Old Madam gritted her teeth hard.
The media reporters were taken aback and quietly captured all the information.
Li Tingzhe got the shock of his life when he heard it. He always wanted to divorce Jiang Xiurang but now that he saw the lawyer with papers in his hands, he suddenly felt uncomfortable. The more he looked at the dazzling Jiang Xiurang, the more he felt averse to divorce.
Lihua smiled. "What happened, Mr. Li, the cheater? I hope you aren't suddenly regretting your life choices right now."
He felt as if he was harshly slapped left and right. Indeed, he was thinking how nice it would be if he could get back with her. When he looked at Kang Yuming, he felt disappointed at how plain she looked in comparison.
Lihua eagerly looked at the lawyer. "So so! The papers are ready, right?"
He nodded. "Yes, Madam. Everything is ready. Once they sign on it, I will proceed with the legal formalities at the earliest."
Li Tingzhe's gaze darkened. "Don't be so overconfident! The results are not out yet!"
Kang Hongqi sneered. "We all know what the result is gonna be. What else can we expect from childish comics? Tell me, Jiang Fai. Are you done with your little drawings like an elementary school kid? Do you want candy? I have brought lots. You will feel better by eating him once you lose," he mocked.

Kang Meifen chuckled. "Don't be so mean to him, bro."
Jiang Fai was infuriated but Lihua had already told him to stay calm. The faceslap would be his win, not talking back with petty curses.
The Old Madam said, "Since everybody is assembled, we will start."
Shi Zhen laughed. "Old Madam. I don't think there is anything to start here. We all know the numbers. We can see them. We just have to announce my daughter's victory."
Ruomei solemnly smiled. "No, Dad. It won't be fair to skip the proper procedure."
He sighed. "You are so kind."
The Old Madam ordered. "Begin, Fu Renshu."
He stepped in with a report in his hand.
"The challenge is officially over and I will declare the results now. First is Miss Shi."
She gracefully stepped up and smiled. "It's my pleasure to be here."
Fu Renshu cleared his throat. "Miss Shi's proposal was according to the methods that the Jiang Industries always follow for any deal. She gave her best in advertising our hotel, attracting everyone with all the facilities and the luxuries that our hotel will provide. As expected from the Jiang family's reputation that aided it, we got multiple pre bookings. Out of the five hundred rooms, two hundred and six rooms have already been booked."
Everybody whispered.
"206? That's not bad at all out of 500."
"Yeah. Well, she has graduated from the best university. It was to be expected."
Fu Renshu continued. "In the whole month, Miss Shi successfully got 61% of traction and people's support following up on her ads."
Shi Ruomei stood proud. On an average, above 50-60% success rate was a great achievement with all the advertisements. That meant that her proposal was a success.
"Now it's Madam's turn."
Everybody clapped hard for Ruomei and were sincerely impressed by her performance. Their praise already reached her ears, making Ruomei jump in happiness. The Old Madam sneered at Lihua as her doom was about to fall.
Lihua jumped and hopped onto the stage. "I am here!" She merrily chirped.
Fu Renshu's mouth twitched.
This dumb woman is never nervous.
Ruomei whispered as she stepped down. "Don't be too heartbroken, okay? You wanted this."
She smiled. "Worry about yourself, Miss Shi, especially after the result."
Ruomei merely chuckled and walked away.
Fu Renshu said, "Madam's proposal was a completely different approach that the Jiang Industries never did before. It was for Jiang Fai to draw a comic story based on our hotel and whose sales would determine the success rate."
He opened the report and stared at the report.
*Badump*
Jiang Fai's heart loudly hammered in his chest as the moment was finally here. Jiang Xiurang held his hand and nodded at him. "Have faith in Lixue. Everything will be fine."
"According to the data, the number of comic copies that were sold are...eleven."
