Chapter 244 - The Mafia King Sets An Example

nJiang Lanying slightly blushed.
"N-Nothing…
"
nJiang Li stared at her and raised his brow. Little Weiwei said,
"They kiss! They kiss!
"
nHer face brightened even more and she lowered her head.
"I-It was an accident…
"
n
"Ohh~~~
"
nLihua left it at that and cleared her throat.
"Are you done choosing clothes for Lihua?
"
nShe nodded.
n
"Great! Let's pay for them and head for lunch. And then we will shop even more, haha!
"
nLihua secretly gifted a teddy bear to the little girl and winked before they left. She eagerly waved her goodbye.
nThey settled at a restaurant and after the food was served, Lihua secretly glanced at Wei and he nodded.
nHe picked a generous amount of meat and put it on her plate. Lihua grinned.
"Wei, you have put in too much meat. I will become fat.
"
nHe patted her head and smiled.
"You need to eat more.
"
nAnd so the lovey-dovey couple didn't lose any chance in showing public display of affection to the max. They fed each other and kept putting food into each other's plates.
nJiang Li quietly sipped his water. When he looked at Jiang Lanying's plate, he frowned. He picked a few pieces of meat and put them on her plate.
n
"Don't eat so little,
" he sternly said.
nJiang Lanying quickly said,
"I am not really hungry…
"
nHe tilted his head.
"Are you not feeling well?
"
n
"I am fine.
"
n
"Then why so little appetite? Even at home, you eat too little,
" he narrowed his eyes.
n
"No, I just always eat that much…
"
nJiang Li said nothing. He added even more veggies and meat into her plate, making her speechless.
"Eat.
"
nShe peeked at him.
"I cannot eat this much-
"
nA stern glare towards her made her immediately back out.
nAh, so cute! Lihua smiled. Jiang Li really cares about her. Hmph. He just doesn't express it!
nLihua felt a soft sensation on her lips and she saw Wei brushing his thumb.
"W-Wei what are you doing?
"
nThis is a public place…
n
"There was a grain of rice on your mouth,
" he said.
n
"Oh!
"
nHe diligently wiped the rice grain off her lips and fed her another piece of meat which she happily chomped upon. Everybody could see imaginary flowers blooming around the couple.
nJiang Li peeked at her and saw that there was a light stain of curry on the corner of her lips.
nLihua giggled as she noticed his small gestures towards her.
nJiang Li slowly raised his hand and softly touched her lips. Jiang Lanying stiffened in a daze. Her ears turned red, feeling his thumb gently wiping her mouth.
n
"What…
"
n
"A little curry,
" he stated.
n
"I see.
"
nFeeling embarrassed, she quickly took a tissue and wiped her mouth.
"Sorry.
"
nHe paused.
"Why are you sorry?
"
n
"Um, it's just a little embarrassing-
"
n
"You don't have to worry about etiquette so much.
"
nJiang Ruiling looked at him in a stupor and softly smiled.
nLihua raised her brow.
nHooooo~
nJiang Lanying excused herself for the ladies' room. When she exited five minutes later, she suddenly felt a strong push from behind her and she stumbled in the front. She gasped and fell on the floor, twisting her foot.
n
"Ouch…
" she rubbed her ankle in pain.
n
"Oh, I am really sorry! Are you okay- Oh it's Lanying!
"
nJiang Lanying lifted her head and saw her cousin, Hou Zhenzhen, looking at her in surprise. She slightly stiffened and awkwardly smiled.
n
"Zhenzhen…
"
nShe smiled.
"Yes, it's me. Long time no see. Oh, my bad! I am really sorry for bumping into you. Are you okay?
" She looked concerned.
n
"I am fine…
"
nShe slowly got up but a sharp pain shot in her feet.
n
"I-I am really sorry, Lanying...I was too busy checking my phone.
"
nJiang Lanying smiled.
"It's okay.
"
nThough she felt that the push shouldn't have been so hard…
n
"Zhenzhen, I was looking all over for you and you are here.
"
nLai Chang's gaze shifted on Lanying and he narrowed his eyes.
"If it isn't Jiang Lanying.
"
n
"Hello Lai Chang…
" she faintly smiled.
nJiang Lanying slowly got up on her feet.
"It was nice meeting you. I need to go back-
"
n
"Why so much hurry?
" He smiled.
"We have met after a long time, haven't we? I think the last time was when you rejected me.
"
nHou Zhenzhen felt a little uncomfortable. She laughed it off.
"Chang, you will always be a meanie. Why talk about the past now?
" Saying that, she hooked her arm around his.
nJiang Lanying noticed this and asked,
"Are you two…
"
nShe smiled.
"Yes, we are engaged.
"
n
"Oh. Congratulations,
" she smiled that irked Hou Zhenzhen.
nHou Zhenzhen said,
"Lanying, I hope you are not uncomfortable.
"
n
"Why would I be uncomfortable?
"
nShe hesitated.
"I mean that Chang had proposed to you before so…
"
nJiang Lanying slightly coughed.
nShe wondered why she was bringing that up again when she said it herself not to talk about the past.
n
"I am not uncomfortable, Zhenzhen. I am really happy for you two. You look good together.
"
nLai Chang snorted.
"Where is your husband by the way? Or have you come here alone?
"
n
"He is with me. I am just heading back to our table.
"
n
"How will you go back with that limp foot? I will help you.
"
n
"No, no. I am fine. I can walk.
"
nLai Chang blocked her way and said,
"I said I will help you. Or do we have to act like strangers just because you rejected me?
" He sneered.
n
"I don't mean that way. I am really fine.
"
nHou Zhenzhen slightly grimaced.
"It's okay, Lanying. Let him help you. He can help you as your future brother-in-law, right?
"
nJiang Lanying said,
"No, I am really-
"
n
"Oh come on! Don't be so stubborn!
"
nHe was about to grab her wrist when a hand suddenly caught him.
nJiang Li stared at him as if a disaster would befall any moment. The atmosphere froze so quickly and suddenly that they felt a sharp chill run down their spine. His cold gaze was devoid of any emotions.
n
"If it isn't Lai Chang who my wife rejected two years back. What a small world to see you here.
"
