Chapter 612 The Mafia King's promise to Jia

  Jia sharply gasped and stumbled back, aghast. One moment, Wei was facing her and then the next moment, he was suddenly on his knees and banging his head on the floor.

  "What are you doing!?"

  Wei raised his head, a thin stream of blood trickling down the middle of his forehead. "Showing my sincerity. Sincerity in the Underworld is shown by blood. I want to express that I absolutely won't hurt Lihua. I will be honest to her, and I will protect Lihua no matter what."

  Jia's head was still buzzing seeing the sudden stance he took.

  "Talk later, first get first-aid!"

  She rushed towards a small table and pulled a medicine box from a drawer. She banged the box on the couch and joined Wei in kneeling beside him. "Oh gosh, are you an idiot!? You just got discharged from that devil's lab and you are hurting yourself again!"

  Wei said, "I am showing my sincerity-"

  "Shut up! Sincerity my foot! You gave me such a jump there. Who bangs their head on the floor like that!?"

  "Me."

  "..."

  Jia could feel it. She could feel her breaths becoming messy and her blood pressure rising. "You idiot! You could have caused a concussion! And then you would be back to Mingshen's lab! Ugh!"

  Jia took out a piece of cotton and angrily coated it with disinfectant. She almost stabbed the cotton on his forehead and wiped the blood off it. Her violent movements had no effect on Wei at all. Instead, he just stared at her, particularly not thinking about anything.

  Jia applied some antiseptic and finished off her first-aid treatment. She gritted her teeth and scowled at him. "I want to punch you! You say that you won't hurt Lihua again, but you were doing just that! Do you think she won't be hurt seeing you hurt like this? She would be so worried sick if you went out like this! Why did you do that?"

  Wei opened his mouth to which she intervened. "Don't talk about sincerity, or I will kill you!"

  He pursed his lips. "I don't want you against our marriage. Lihua loves you a lot. You love Lihua too. But you don't like me. I don't want that to make Lihua sad. I want you to accept me as her husband because that will make Lihua happy."

  Jia squinted her eyes at him and stayed silent for some time. Finally, she exhaled a long breath. "I am not against you and Lihua's marriage."

  Wei blinked at her and tilted his head. "You are not?"

  Tired, she sat back on the couch. "I know I should protest and stop Lihua. But I really cannot because I know that nobody can love her more than you. You literally don't see anybody else but my sister. Hell you don't want to even talk to other women apart from her. That is quite something…You have a lot of faults for sure. You hurt her, but you did that out of your fear of not losing her. You are crazy for her but at the same time, you didn't force her to live with you after the truth got out. I appreciate that. With the way you took such extreme steps, I didn't think it was possible for you to act with that sanity in mind."

  Her brow twitched in annoyance. "Somehow, your love and devotion for Lihua drowns away all your mistakes. You really love her a lot, don't you?"

  At that question, his gaze immediately softened. "En. I love Lihua a lot."

  His warm voice and gaze was enough for Jia to get the confirmation she needed. "That's all I want for my sister. Someone who will treasure and respect her. That's why I don't oppose your marriage to her because I know that you are the last person who would really make her ever sad."

  Wei felt that she was genuinely supporting his and Lihua's marriage without any bitter feelings inside her. That made him feel as if a burden lifted off his shoulders.

  "Thank you."

  A beat of silence later, Jia said, "I accept you as her husband, but…"

  He flinched.

  "That doesn't mean I accept what you did to my parents," she clenched her fists.

  The mention of her parents made Wei briefly remember that he killed them. "I don't regret what I did that night."

  Jia froze. Her heart beat frantically in her chest, a nauseous feeling creeping up within her.

  "Don't…regret? Does that mean what Jiang Zhen said about them was true?" It wasn't noticeable but her body was shivering slightly.

  Wei said, "It's time I tell you what had happened. There are a lot of unanswered questions about the past, and I will answer all of them. Your parents weren't saints, and you should know that truth. Lihua too."

  She trembled.

  "Now that the Cheng family is here, the truth will be out anyway. I will call you when everybody will gather."

  Jia didn't know what to say. "I see."

  Wei stood up on his feet and nodded. "We are going to the Civil affairs bureau to register our marriage. Lihua wants you to be there as well. Do you want to come with us?"

  Jia took a deep breath. "I won't accompany you right now, but I will be there in some time."

  Wei nodded again. "Okay."

  He turned on his heels and just when he was about to leave, he said without turning back, "That night…if you had been in my place and if you loved Lihua as much as I did, you would have done the same thing as I did."

  Jia shuddered, and her eyes widened. The door then softly shut, leaving Jia alone in silence. Wei's last words reverberated in her mind, her body trembling.

  I would have done the same thing as he did…? I would have killed Mom and Dad too?

  She stared at the ceiling as she chuckled with a tear slipping out of her eyes.

  "Life sucks so bad…"
