Chapter 375 - The Mafia King Will Pay Back

Fu Renshu coughed hard. "Why him?"

Wei frowned. "To reduce the syllabus and to postpone the exam."

"..."

He broke into a cold sweat. "Boss, Madam wouldn't like it. I know you are doing this for her own good, but sh-she won't," he coughed, "appreciate the in-in-interference…" The last word was hardly audible.

"...I know. But I cannot see her working so hard. I have read that the first trimester is really crucial, and she should be completely resting now…" the light in his eyes faded away.

But because of me, she is forced to do this, he dug his nails in his palm.

"I understand, Boss," he quickly tried to think of a solution that wouldn't let him call the Education Minister.

Wei was about to press the dial button when Fu Renshu exclaimed. "How about we first observe!?"

He blinked his eyes. "Observe?"

"Y-Yes. We can see how Madam is faring with the workload. I am confident in Madam. She can handle it. You trust Madam too, right?" He urged.

Wei tilted his head. "Of course. My Lihua can do anything," his eyes shone with pride.

"Of course! That's why we should trust her capabilities."

He pursed his lips and hesitated. He imagined Lihua awake till late at night and studying as hard as she could. The mere thought felt as if somebody shot sharp arrows at his heart. He didn't want to see a sleepless Lihua with dark circles under her eyes.

"Alright...I will see. But if it's too much, then…" he narrowed his eyes.

Fu Renshu wiped his forehead. "Of course, of course, you will call the Education Minister."

He nodded.

Phew.

Somehow, he managed the situation.

Then he straightened up and said, "Boss. I have some news about Jiang Shan."

Wei narrowed his eyes. "Is it about Ruomei?"

As expected, Boss already figured it out.

"Yes. Even though Shi Ruomei exposed everything and made our life difficult, she couldn't have done it without outside help. To know so many inside details about Song Jia and Madam's memory, it is impossible for her to dig the truth by herself. Through her, we have gotten a possible link at his location. Since she was sent to New York, it is highly possible that Jiang Shan also lives there. They made contact, most probably, he approached her and used her to expose everything."

Wei sat back on his seat and rested his arm on the table. He tapped his finger, signaling that he was in an extremely bad mood.

"Did you find Ruomei?"

"Not yet. She is definitely living under a false name, and I am sure Jiang Shan is hiding her with his influence so that we don't get our hands on her."

He slowly said, "Influence? Doesn't matter. I don't care how he did it. I want Ruomei in front of me in the next twenty-four hours. This is the Mafia King's order, and every gang should know about it. Find her at any cost."

"Yes, Boss!"

"Now that he dared to target Lihua and my relationship, he cannot go unharmed," the bloodthirst in his voice made even Lihua, the cat, slightly shudder.

But she was happy.

Good. Don't increase the population of dumb humans on this planet. You should be strong and dangerous like this Queen!

Fu Renshu squinted his eyes. "Boss. It must be because he wants you to get weak. It is strange that he didn't target any of our gangs; instead, he used Shi Ruomei to destroy your marriage. He thought that you would be devastated by her loss, and then he could take this chance to attack us when you would be the most vulnerable."

"Indeed," his black eyes glinted with a murderous gaze. "I wasn't in the right state of mind earlier. But it's strange that he would do this. That's why I want his head as soon as possible. He dared to mess with my happiness."

Fu Renshu nodded.

"Ruomei is the link, for now, to know more about Jiang Shan. Bring her within twenty-four hours at any cost."

"Yes!"

The next day in the classroom, Lihua had hung her head low on the desk, feeling extremely aggrieved. "I am screwed, Yaya."

Meng Ya had the same stance and expression as she, too, pressed her forehead on the desk as if the world was over. "I am screwed too, Lihua. Let's drown in our misery together."

The reason for their misery was simple.

Yesterday, when they discussed with the principal about rejoining college, he had agreed without much objections. But there was a significant change in Lihua's decision regarding her graduation.

At first, Lihua wasn't really sure what to pursue as her career. She just wanted to go for basic graduation and get a job.

"Sir. I know this is sudden, but I want to study Public Relations."

The principal was taken aback. "Are you sure?"

"Yes. I wasn't sure what job to do before. But now I feel I want to do PR. When I was absent for these six months, I realized that I loved talking to people and solving their problems. Sometimes they were as severe as someone's reputation on the line, but I loved the challenge to turn things around."

She remembered how she helped Jiang Fai and Jiang Xiurang against Li Tingzhe while making a profit for Jiang Industries with the comic that hit super popular. Jiang Fai and his mother, who had no place before, now proudly lived in the family

Then she recalled Jiang Ruiling's incident where she could help her in the nick of time to save her reputation and still win against all odds in turning the tide for Shen Yang's favor. She convinced Jiang Lanying to fight for Jiang Li that inevitably washed away all stains from his name through the press conference.

Then she realized that she liked doing this. It was thrilling to take on such challenges. It may be impossible at first glance. But there was a solution to everything, no matter how bad things might look. She understood that her skills were more suited for public relations.

A positive image is crucial in today's world, and she wanted to reach out to those who couldn't stand up for their reputation or who didn't have the resources to do so.

Lihua smiled. "I have decided, Sir.. I am going for Public Relations."
