The Mafia King's First Love

When the Zhao family played with the twins to their heart's content, it was time for Lihua to feed them. They had already woken up from their peaceful sleep and were crying with hunger.

Though it was hard feeding both at once so until she would get used to it, Wei said he would play with one twin to divert their attention.

But it wasn't working.

Little Weiyun's teary eyes stared at his father with complaint and grievance, and his chubby cheeks tinged with slight redness from all the crying.

Wei pursed his lips and stared back at his son questioningly because he didn't know what else to do other than cradling him.

Lihua chuckled, seeing him helpless. The Mafia King as a father was a different sight to see. It melted her heart in another way.

Wei was getting increasingly distressed as Weiyun's cries grew.

Finally, the Cheng family stepped in along with Mrs. Zhang, making Lihua's face brightened. "Aunt Zhang!"

Cheng Ling and Xinyue hesitated to come in but since Lihua's chest was covered anyway while breastfeeding, Mrs. Zhang simply pushed them forward. "Come on! It's time to meet your grandchildren!"

Mrs. Zhang beamed at her. "Lihua!"

Lihua saw her parents and brother and nodded at them. She felt relieved to see them here. There was a bit of distance between them which had reduced after Wei woke up from coma. During her last month of pregnancy, they had grown closer as the Cheng family would come to visit Lihua at times too.

It was hard taking in that Lihua had her own real family now. For all these years, it was only Jia and her. So the acceptance and admittance into the lives was slowly but surely happening.

*Meow*

Qingqing, who Xinyue held in his arms all this time, jumped down and then jumped up at the bed where Lihua fed Limei. She stared at the baby girl who was happily sucking on her mother's milk.

*Meow*

She rubbed the tip of her nose against her cheek and perched upon Lihua's lap. She turned her head to watch Weiyun and narrowed her eyes at Wei.

Humans are so useless!

Lihua asked Xinyue, "Why was Qinging with you?"

She asked more in a shocking tone because it was rare to see Qingqing feel so comfortable with someone who she just met.

Xinyue raised his brow. "Intelligent people tend to attract each other. I love that cat, especially her eyes."

Lihua's gaze darkened. "Hold on! What do you mean by intelligent people attracting each other? You mean to say I am not intelligent?"

"I thought that was a proven fact by now."

Lihua choked hard.

Mrs. Zhang glared at him. "Xinyue! That's now how you talk to your sister!"

He scowled.

On the other side, Cheng Mei and Cheng Ling met their grandson for the first time. Cheng Ling had tears in his eyes as he watched Weiyun. His chest was filled with fluffiness and warmth seeing his grandson.

"So cute…" he sniffled. "We are grandparents now, Mei…"

"Waaaaaaa…"

Wei pursed his lips as all his attempts to calm down a crying Weiyun were failing.

Cheng Mei tapped on his shoulder and silently communicated with Wei, her eyes staring at him. He nodded and handed Weiyun to her.

Lihua could only watch them speechlessly. "You two didn't even talk!"

Mrs. Zhang giggled. "What do you mean? They talked with their eyes. She said, 'Give him to me.' Wei nodded and did so."

"..."

Xinyue smiled. "And then you cry why people refuse to call you intelligent."

!!!

She gritted her teeth. "You don't talk to me!"

Cheng Mei took Weiyun in her arms, whose cheeks were filled with tears by now. His big, black and watery eyes looked at his grandmother for help.

She stared at him for a long time, apparently not even cradling like Wei was doing. Little Weiyun cried and cried until she started whistling a soft tune.

Weiyun's attention immediately snapped to the soft music, and he stared back at her with his eyes wide. She sang a soft melody that when reached his ears brought a sunny smile on his lips.

Wei and Lihua were left dumbfounded.

She made him stop crying instantly!

Cheng Mei was pleased and as she continued singing, Weiyun even started giggling.

Mrs. Zhang grinned. "You should learn that tune. You used to like that very much when you were a baby. That always stopped you from crying too."

Lihua sheepishly grinned. "Is that so?"

Xinyue sneered. "Yes. You never let me sleep peacefully!"

"..." 𝙛r𝚎𝐞𝑤𝚎𝗯𝗻𝗼𝐯e𝚕.𝒄𝐨𝓂

Mrs. Zhang glowered. "Don't act like you didn't care about your sister! You used to hang around her crib all the time and whenever Mei wasn't there, you would sing that tune to make Lihua happy! You were such a good big brother…" she felt emotional.

Xinyue gritted his teeth. "I think I made it clear that you won't talk about useless stuff!"

Lihua chirped. "You did that for me, big brother?"

"Shut up! Give Limei to me. Pat her back. She is done drinking milk."

Wei was happily about to take his daughter to play with him when the Uncle snatched her away from him. His shoulders drooped.

Limei…

Qingqing looked at him in disdain.

So pitiful.

Now it was Weiyun's turn to drink milk but this time he cried because he was taken away from Cheng Mei.

Lihua - "..."

Aren't you hungry?

Xinyue ignored them and looked down at his niece who was staring at him with a glowing face. Her tummy was full, so she was happy. He tapped on her nose, making her scrunch her brows a bit. But she giggled anyway. 𝒇𝐫ℯ𝑒𝒘ℯ𝑏n𝑜ѵ𝐞l.c𝗼𝗺

Xinyue smiled, going back to the time when Lihua was just a baby.

You are just like her…

Limei's eyes and her cheeks reminded him of how Lihua was. She snuggled against her Uncle's chest and slowly dozed off to sleep.

Which made Wei extremely jealous.

Limei…

Poor Mafia King was on the verge of tears!
