The Mafia King's First Love

Chapter 668: For ten months

Lihua was completely left speechless. "I don't understand what has taken over Mingshen. Why is he acting like that? How could he ask him to choose between him and Zexi?"         

    

She hugged a trembling Bojing and pursed her lips. "You don't have to listen to that evil doctor, Bojing! He is clearly bullying you."     

Bojing wasn't in a state to respond. His endless tears fell on the floor, and his sniffles made everyone's heart ache.     

Jia sighed and pressed her brows.     

This is not like him. Why is he so fixated on this?     

"Bojing, don't worry about this. We will talk to him and snap him out of it."     

He shook his head and wiped his eyes. "No…Y-you don't have to."     

He turned and faced Zexi, bowing deeply with his shoulders quivering. "I-I am really sorry. I don't know why Bo-Boss is doing this, but I cannot l-let go of him and choose you. I really li-liked spending time with you too…I really do. But I cannot choose anybody over B-Boss. He saved me. He taught me everything. He…gave me a place to belong. I c-could have never survived without him. That's why I cannot leave him. To him, I…I might be a replaceable assistant. But for me, he is my irreplaceable benefactor. I…" his eyes reddened his eyes, "don't want to lose my p-place as his assistant. I am really sorry."     

—     

Mingshen looked at his watch and saw the seconds hand ticking by. There were forty seconds left for his given five minutes to end.     

He sneered at the driver. "Let's go."     

The driver coughed and meekly asked, "What about A-assistant Lu?"     

"Seems like he has made his choice-"     

"Boss!" Bojing scrambled and rushed towards him. He huffed breathlessly. "T-take me with you too…"     

Mingshen raised his brow. "Hoo…You do realize what this means, right?"     

Bojing pursed his lips and nodded.     

"Get inside."     

—     

Days passed into weeks and weeks passed into months as Bojing quietly kept working at the lab with Mingshen. During this period, Lihua naturally confronted him for putting Bojing into such a cruel spot.     

"You are taking advantage of the fact that he feels indebted to you!" She glared at him. "You know he wouldn't leave your side. Isn't that too harsh?"     

Mingshen said, bored, "Little chilly, you are the mother of two kids. Do you really have time to goof around at my place and ignore your twins?"     

"I know what I am doing! I won't watch you treating my younger brother like this…"     

He sneered. "Heh. So what will you do? Take him away from here? Sure. Go ahead."     

Naturally, Bojing refused to leave Mingshen's side.     

"Sis Lihua," he burst into tears, "Thank you so much for always thinking about me. Y-you and sis Jia are the best sisters…" he felt emotional. "But really, I won't leave this place."     

Even Jia did her best to convince Bojing and bring Mingshen into his senses, but this was the first time that he didn't do something that his Spicy wanted.         

    

Even Yang Bingqing couldn't stop him.     

It was one day ten months later that things finally moved.     

"Boss…?" Bojing peeked into his office, bringing a file with him. "These are the test results. D-Do you want to look at it now?"     

Mingshen grimaced. "Keep it on the table. And how many times have I told you not to peek like a ghost? Just come in normally!"     

He jolted back and apologized. "Sorry, Boss…"     

"Whatever. I am leaving somewhere. Stay in the lab."     

Bojing nodded. It was like this everyday. He worked in the lab as if nothing happened and never spoke a word about Zexi to Mingshen.     

He gave Bojing a long hard stare.     

Bojing trembled and tears pooled in his eyes. "D-did I do something wrong?"     

"..."     

He smacked on his head. "You cry too much."     

"So-sorry Boss…"     

"You keep apologizing but don't change."     

"S-so-"     

"Which is good. Take care of the lab."     

"Yes…" Bojing was a little confused by him today.     

It was late in the evening when Bojing got the shock of his life as he saw Zexi in the lab. He rubbed his eyes again and again to see if he was dreaming.     

No…She cannot be here…How?     

But she wasn't alone. There was a young man by her side too.     

Bojing blinked.     

Who is he?     

"Come inside you peek-a-boo ghost!" Mingshen screamed.     

Bojing almost dropped the file from his hands and stumbled. As he slowly entered, Zexi and he finally met each other's eyes.     

"Bojing…" tears filled her eyes after seeing him after eight months.     

Bojing was about to say her name but quickly stopped in time. He didn't wish to make Mingshen furious. But one glance was enough to tell him how much she had changed in a span of ten months. She looked prettier and more mature. Her hair had grown longer. It made him feel how much he missed her.         

    

But he didn't recognize the man standing with her. He looked around Zexi's age.     

Mingshen sneered. "My dear assistant. You must be wondering why this teenager is here with whom I told you to break off all your contact and choose me that day ten months back, right?"     

Bojing opened his mouth but then promptly shut it.     

"And you must also be wondering who this man is with her. Well then let me tell you that he has become a very close friend of this teenager."     

Very c-close…?     

"He confessed to her today."     

Bojing froze. He stared at the young man and then back at Zexi, trying hard not to tremble.     

"O-oh…That's…" he swallowed his saliva. "That's really…good."     

The smile on his lips didn't match with the tears brimming in his eyes. "Co-Congratulations…" he hoarsely said. His eyes darted left and right not knowing what to say anymore. "I…"     

Mingshen lazily added. "But she rejected him."     

Bojing rapidly blinked his eyes. "W-what…?"     

"Did you not hear the first time I said that? He confessed to her and she rejected, apparently because she doesn't want to date anybody other than you."     

He was unable to speak for a long time.     

And then his face furiously blushed with shyness and also flushed with embarrassment.
