The Mafia King’s First Love - Chapter 665: Help with studies

Chapter 665: Help with studies

Mingshen rapidly, angrily and impatiently kept tapping his finger on the armrest of the couch that belonged to Jia’s apartment. It was the next day and as promised – or as Jia forced Mingshen to promise, he and Bojing arrived at her place.

The doorbell rang and Jia opened it to welcome Lihua and the twins along with the special guest Zexi.

“Sis!” Lihua beamed and chirped and so did the twins upon seeing their Aunt.

“Jia.” Weiyun and Limei flailed their hands forward in excitement for Jia to hold them.

“Lihua,” she hugged her and quickly held the twins against her chest. “As always, so cute and chubby!” She kissed their cheeks. The twins blushed and giggled.

Zexi followed Lihua and stiffened upon seeing Mingshen. “The evil doctor boss…” she mumbled.

Lihua noticed the grumpy expression on Mingshen’s face and sneered. “What’s wrong with you today? Did some experiment of yours fail?”

Mingshen narrowed his eyes. “On the contrary, I am thinking about what sort of new tests I can do on a teenager’s body.”

Zexi shuddered and gasped. “You…you want to make me your research subject!?”

“I am always open to new volunteers~”

Lihua patted her hand. “Don’t be afraid of Mingshen. He won’t be able to touch you at all. Sis and I are here!”

“Sis Lihua…” she felt emotional.

Little Limei trotted towards Mingshen and tugged his knee. “Ishen!” She hugged his leg and laughed.

“It’s Mingshen,” he corrected her.

“Ishen!”

“Mingshen.”

“Ishen!”

He gritted his teeth. “Come here my dear. Let me have your brain checked for a bit. What I feared got true. Your intelligence is at stake,” he squished her cheeks.

“Ishen?” Limei tilted her head.

“Hey!” Lihua glared at him. “She is just one year old!”

Limei climbed on his lap and laughed. Though Mingshen wasn’t exactly thrilled with her finding her new spot. “I don’t wish to catch your dumbness virus.”

“Ishen. Funny,” she giggled.

His gaze darkened.

Bojing stepped out of the kitchen, shocked upon seeing Zexi. “Y-you…”

“Bojing!” Zexi gleamed with joy.

Bojing cleared his throat and peeked at Mingshen, who naturally was emitting black fumes of danger.

Jia pushed Bojing and smiled. “Come on. Didn’t Zexi say that she needed your help with her studies? How about you two do that while I make some food? Then after you are done, we can play games and have some fun together.”

Lihua raised her hand. “Yes, games!”

Bojing glanced at Mingshen and with his one look, he understood his threat.

Dare to accept this and I will make you suffer.

Bojing was on the verge of tears.

Jia said, unfazed. “Don’t worry about anybody else here. Nobody will leave until you two are done studying.”

Mingshen sneered as he saw Zexi. “I wonder if it will be even studying and not wasting my assistant’s valuable time which he should have spent in his lab with ME.”

Lihua smacked his hand. “Do you want to coop up Bojing in your tiny lab forever?”

“My lab is not tiny. How about I give you a tour of it and on the way make you my subject too?”

Her mouth twitched.

Jia ignored him and smiled. “You two can use Lihua’s room. Right at that side.”

Zexi blushed. “O-okay.”

The whole way, Bojing felt razor sharp beams pointed at his back, clearly aware of Mingshen’s distaste for this.

The door closed and a second later, Mingshen stormed towards their room. Which Jia anticipated and blocked his way. “Stop it!”

“They have been inside for a long time now. Time is over.”

Lihua’s jaw dropped. “It has hardly been a second. They will be just studying!”

Mingshen sneered. “A hungry teenager eyeing my assistant and you say they will be studying?”

“…”

“Mingshen, Bojing is an adult. He can protect himself,” Jia retorted.

“Against women’s charms? Yeah, I don’t think so.”

“What is so bad about falling in love anyway!?” Lihua questioned.

“He doesn’t need to be in love when he has to be my assistant! Love changes people.”

“And haven’t you changed after meeting sis?” She glared at him. “You are a fine example yourself!”     𝒏𝒐𝑽𝐄𝓛𝚞𝓈𝒃.𝑐𝔬𝓂

Mingshen stared at her. “I know. That’s why I don’t want that to happen with Bojing.”

Zexi buried her face in her bag and took out her textbooks one by one.

Damn it feels so awkward…

She peeked at him and found him glancing through her textbooks. The sunlight that shone on his side profile made him look even more beautiful.

Seriously, even a girl cannot beat him in beauty…

As a girl herself, she felt a sense of crisis but she wasn’t really frustrated with Bojing.

She cleared her throat. “A-are you okay?”

Bojing blinked in confusion. “Yes. Why won’t I be okay?”

“Because your evil Boss locked you up in the lab for five days! He didn’t let us meet at all…”

Bojing widened his eyes in realization and tears brimmed in them. “I am r-really sorry for n-not being able to meet you. I had too much work.”

“…”

“You didn’t HAVE too much work. Your evil Boss purposely dumped the work upon you! Wasn’t it too tiring?”

“No. I have handled much more volume of work than this before.”

She was speechless.

Just what does his Boss make him do in that lab for him getting used to loads of work!?

“I came to meet you too, but he caught me in a net trap and threw me out of his lab,” she sobbed.

“H-He did that?”

She nodded.

Bojing wondered why Mingshen never told him about Zexi coming to meet him?

He pursed his lips. “I-I am sorry. Boss doesn’t like outsiders in his lab. O-of course, you a-aren’t an outsider to me!” He slightly blushed. “Y-you are my friend…”

Somehow hearing him say that made her blush too.

“But for Boss you are so…H-He doesn’t accept others so easily…” tears fell on his cheeks, “I am so-sorry you had to go through that…”

“N-No!” Zexi quickly said, “It’s fine. W-well how about we get to studying? Yes, studying!” she fumbled with her books. “Let’s study!”
