The Mafia King's First Love

Chapter 555 Dumbness overload

There was a deep and straining silence in Jiang villa as everybody had gathered in Ruru's room. Mingshen was checking over him as he flashed a small torchlight on his pupils. Qingqing was firmly perched on his side, nudging Ruru's cheek from time to time with her nose.

Jiang Hua's tears refused to stop seeing how her son was not responding. He laid there blank and empty.

"Ruru will be fine!" Lihua whispered. "He is a strong boy."

"He is fine," Mingshen declared. "He just needs some rest. A seizure usually lasts for a few minutes and stops by itself. His shivering has stopped."

Which was proved when Ruru finally moved his head. His eyes restored focus, as he watched everybody.

"Ruru!" Jiang Hua sat beside him and hugged him. She brushed her fingers through his hair, sobbing hard.

Lihua wiped the corner of her eyes as well as relief washed over her. Jiang Weisheng patted her shoulder. "Lihua, you have been standing for a long time now. Sit. You will tire yourself out."

"I am fine, Grandpa."

"No, you are not," Mingshen sneered. "So shut up and sit down. I don't know how much cortisol must have been partying hard in your body right now. You don't look like it, but you are stressed hard."

Lihua glared at him. "I am not stressed! I knew Ruru would be fine."

"Now come sit here and let me have fun with you~"

Lihua was horrified. "You evil doctor! What fun are you talking about?"

"Well, I do need someone to take my revenge for treating me as a pediatrician, right?" He pointingly stared at her. "I wonder whose idea it was to call ME here?"

Lihua took a step back and hid behind Zhao Weisheng. "Y-you are a doctor! You have a moral obligation to help others!"

He smiled. "And now it's my moral responsibility to hurt someone who forced me out of my lab when you could just call a specialized pediatrician."

She sheepishly grinned. "You are all all-rounder."

"I am not just an all-rounder. I am the best," he sneered. "But that doesn't mean you get to use my services. Now sit here. Let me NICELY check you up, and then you can cough out all the money for my visit."

They heard a soft giggle that came from Ruru. He was observing Mingshen and Lihua's interaction and seemed to enjoy it.

Lihua brightened. "Hey, Ruru is laughing!"

Jiang Hua wiped her eyes. "Yes. He seems to be much better now. But I don't understand. Why did he suddenly go into shock?"

Mingshen's gaze darkened. "What's with that question? He is a kid who saw a scorpion sting his mother and her finger bleed and her eyes shed tears. Obviously, he was scared you would die."

She froze.

Ruru was thinking that?

Ruru pursed his lips and lowered his gaze. His expression confirmed Mingshen's claim.

Her eyes turned misty and she hugged him. "I am sorry for scaring you, Ruru. I was careless. I will not leave you."

For any child, it was frightening to feel separated from his parents. His relationship with Jiang Zhen was already rocky. Ruru only had his mother now.

She awkwardly smiled. "I…I always thought Ruru liked Lihua more than me. O-Of course, I am not against it. You are a really good person. Strong, confident and funny. I could see why Ruru got attached to you. So…"

I didn't think Ruru would get afraid of me leaving him.

Zhao Weisheng tilted his head. "Of course Ruru likes you. You are his mother. No matter how much he likes Lihua, nobody can replace you in his heart."

Ruru felt shy and looked away.

Mingshen coldly interrupted their conversation. "Yeah keep your lovely jabber after I go back. Song Lihua. Sit down."

Lihua jolted. "H-Hey you cannot bully a pregnant woman!"

He raised his brow. "Oh, I can bully anybody I want~"

Zhao Weisheng patted her head. "I am here. He won't do anything. It's good to have you checked up. Unfortunately, Bojing is not here with us…"

Mingshen narrowed his eyes but didn't respond to that comment.

But Lihua did. "You devil incarnate! Your assistant is with that evil Li Dong, and you feel nothing about that?"

He smiled. "What I do with my assistant has got nothing to do with you. Plus, if your memory is working, you might remember that I did order him to come back to my side. But what did he do?"

He revolted and refused to come back if Lihua wouldn't be with him too.

"T-That of course he cares about me! We are like siblings!"

"Yeah, I pretty much don't care about your lovely bonding," he sneered.

Lihua scowled.

"He didn't obey my command when swore absolute loyalty to me. So now whether he ends up at Li Dong'￠ place or whatever hell it is, I don't care."

She gritted her teeth. "You…Do you know how much he cried?"

"He always cries. Tell me something new."

"..."

Mingshen put his palms on her shoulders and forced her to sit on the couch. "Now if you will let me have my revenge."

He sat beside her and placed his hand on her belly. He glanced at her stomach and raised his brow in amusement.

"What? Why are you looking like that?"

Zhao Weisheng frowned. "Lihua is fine, right?"

"Oh she is. She is too fine, I guess," he smiled. "Which is not good for me."

"Ah?" Lihua looked at him, dumbfounded.

He turned and his sharp gaze met Qingqing's green eyes.

You little…you knew from the beginning.

*Meow*

Of course. I am smarter than you, human.

Mingshen turned and faced her. "Remember to tell me when your labor arrives."

"Huh? Where does this come from?"

"Of course, it does. So that I can pack my bags and leave for the Amazon forest to settle down, away from you."

Her nostrils flared. "Hey! What do you mean? My baby will be really cute and chubby!"

He sneered. "It was fine if it was ONE cute and chubby baby. But there are TWO cute and chubby babies there in your belly. You are dumb, so is your ex-husband. One combination of you two was already enough. But now there will be two dumb parents and two dumb babies. This world is gonna end by the dumbness overload. But I wish to stay alive, so I will just take my leave from this dumb family."
