Chapter 374: Chapter 330: A Long-Awaited Diagnosis (Part 2)
The Black Cat departed swiftly.
Gentle trembled in a corner. She seemed to have discovered some secret.
’Why did Brother Zhao want to abandon those people?’
’He clearly wasn’t injured, yet he’d pretended he couldn’t move, letting the Black Cat take those people away.’
’And now, she and this Doctor Wen were the only ones who had witnessed it all. Doctor Wen’s abilities could probably rival Brother Zhao’s, but her?’
She was just a weak woman!
Zhao Ge glanced at Gentle, who immediately dropped to her knees, trembling. "Brother Zhao, I don’t know anything! I didn’t see anything! I really don’t, please, Brother Zhao, spare me! I’ll do whatever you tell me to do! I’ll definitely listen to you!"
Gentle remained kneeling, speaking through her tears as she kowtowed.
But Zhao Ge didn’t seem to care.
He ignored Gentle’s pleas and turned to Wen Ying. "Doctor Wen, you’re working with the Black Cat, aren’t you? How exactly did you get it to obey you? To be honest, I’m very curious. We could kill the Black Cat, of course, but I’d much rather make it work for me."
Wen Ying simply smiled without answering.
Zhao Ge seemed to be growing impatient. "You don’t really think there’s nothing I can do to you, do you?"
"I just have a little extra patience for beautiful women. Doctor Wen, I wouldn’t recommend testing it."
"Just as I suspected. That whip isn’t your only item, is it? Nor is it your only trump card."
"And so what if it isn’t? Who here doesn’t have secrets? As for mine... you’re not worthy of knowing them."
Wen Ying picked a stool and sat down. "Don’t be so hasty. Why don’t you let me take a guess?"
Seeing Wen Ying continue to be so cryptic, Zhao Ge sneered. "Fine. I’ll give you one chance. But only one."
Zhao Ge pulled a stool over and sat down across from Wen Ying.
What is Doctor Wen going to do? I’m totally lost.
If you could figure her out, she wouldn’t be Doctor Wen! Anyway, she’s definitely going to put this guy in his place!
"Can you pay me one thousand first?"
Wen Ying looked at Zhao Ge earnestly and began to explain. "I have a rule when I see patients. I have to collect a fee of one thousand first. Only after you’ve paid can I proceed."
Zhao Ge chuckled, pulling a small cardboard box from under the bed and opening it.
He took out a large watermelon from inside.
"Will this cover the one thousand?"
"Of course!"
’In a place like this, getting a watermelon in exchange for a thousand is a fantastic deal.’
After pulling the watermelon toward her, Wen Ying took a small knife from her pocket and cut a slice out of it.
And so, Zhao Ge watched as the woman began to eat the watermelon right in front of him, as if no one else was around.
’This woman’s nerve is something else!’
Gentle was still kneeling off to the side, not daring to move a muscle.
’Since I gave her a chance, I might as well wait a little longer.’
After eating half the watermelon, Wen Ying put the watermelon directly into her pocket.
Into her pocket!
Into her pocket!
Her own pocket!
A pocket that was much, much smaller than the watermelon!
Zhao Ge’s pupils contracted.
’What just happened?’
’She didn’t use any items... but how could a watermelon that big fit into a pocket so small?’
’Could her pants be an item?’
’But they just look like cheap, generic pants from a street stall—not some famous brand. There’s no way they’re an item!’
’Just how many secrets is this woman hiding?!’
Hahaha! Zhao Ge must be stunned, right? He’s never seen a move like that before, has he?
He messed with Doctor Wen. There’s no way this ends well for him!
Honestly, the first time I saw Doctor Wen pull a move like that, I was dumbfounded too. Good thing you get used to it after seeing it a few times!
Zhao Ge finally couldn’t hold back. "You... you have an item, too?"
Wen Ying held up a finger, pointing to a plain, cheap-looking ring on it that looked like it came from a dollar store. "You mean this? I guess it’s an item. I took it off some other guy. Judging by how much he treasured it before he died, it must be."
Zhao Ge, "..."
"I was talking about your clothes."
Wen Ying glanced down at herself. "Is there a problem with my clothes? I bought this whole outfit for two hundred back outside. That’s pretty expensive, don’t you think?"
Zhao Ge, "..."
’Definitely a lunatic!’
"I’ll give you one thousand for your clothes!"
"Huh?" Wen Ying looked at Zhao Ge, confused. ’Is there something wrong with this guy?’
"I don’t know about that... I’ve already worn them. You’re not some kind of pervert, are you?"
"..."
"But for a thousand... I suppose I could consider it. You’d have to give me a change of clothes, though, right?"
Zhao Ge, "..."
