Chapter 189 - The Mafia King Insists Lihua For A Checkup
The dark expression on Mingshen's handsome face seemed as if the Death God appeared before her.
Lihua straightened up. "How mean! What do you mean by a brothel? Wei and I are husband and wife. Plus, we were only hugging!" She glared at him.
He sneered. "Hug and cuddle all you want in your bedroom. Not in front of my lab."
"You are so unlovable! How is Aunt Yang even your mother? She is so sweet and kind and you got nothing but a rude mouth!"
"Whatever."
Lihua cheekily smiled at him. "Or maybe it's because that you got no girlfriend to hug and cuddle so you are just jealous of Wei and me hoho~"
He paused and narrowed his eyes on her.
"Well, you cannot blame anybody but yourself. Who will accept to date you in the first place? You say only scary things!" She shuddered.
Mingshen lazily leaned on the wall and smirked. "To your disappointment, I do happen to have a girlfriend."
Lihua looked at him, aghast. "Impossible!"
He chuckled. "Currently, she is lying on the bed all weak and pale, but I assure you that I have her heart."
"..."
"Don't talk about a research subject as your girlfriend!"
"I am not obligated to explain myself to you."
She snorted. "Hah! As if I will believe your words! There are only two ways by which you can have a girlfriend."
"And that is?" He raised his brow.
"Either you change your ways and become a good man," she righteously nodded.
"Pfft! Hahahaha!" He burst into a loud, crazy laughter that scared the hell out of his assistant doctor standing at a distance. That eerie laugh only sent chills across his spine.
"What is there to laugh about?" Lihua indignantly glared at him.
He clutched his stomach and rolled in laughter, making her mouth twitch. He looked at her as if she was an idiot. "The part where you say become a good man. You really love to live in your small, cute bubble, don't you? A good man and me? That was a good joke indeed. If you think an Underworld doctor is supposed to be a 'good man', then I pity the man who will marry you," then he widened his eyes. "Oops! I forgot your husband is right beside you! Hahaha! What a pitiful creature Jiang Wei is."
Lihua looked at him, dumbfounded.
He is indeed a crazy man!
Mingshen sneered. "Do you think everyone is good and pure white in this world? Everybody is hell worse when they want to be. Everybody has a dark side," he eyed Wei as he said, "It depends on that person if he wants to show you that side or not. Right, Wei?" He winked.
To his surprise, Wei was looking at him a little bit differently today. Something was weird about his expression.
He glanced back at Lihua. "And what is the second way?"
Lihua fumed. "The second way is if you kidnap a woman. Otherwise, no sane woman will ever agree to date you!"
He thoughtfully touched his chin. "Good observation. But what if a sane woman really likes me?" He innocently asked to which Lihua felt as if she would puke.
"I am not talking about your research subjects! Living, breathing humans! A sane woman. But unfortunately, a scary hooligan like you will never get one."
He smiled. "So then time to find someone who is as insane as me."
"..."
She imagined two insane people getting together and shivered. "You...you have no right to trouble Aunt Yang like that. An insane son is already more than enough for her," she wiped her eyes.
"Whatever. Get the fucking out of here at the count of three. One, two-"
"Hey, hey! We are not here for fun! We came here to meet you."
Mingshen raised his brow and eyed Wei.
Is it about her memory?
He cursed under his breath and went inside.
Wei held her hand. "Let's go."
As they stepped into his maze-like base, Lihua stared at the lab in wonder. It was huge with so many rooms filled with state-of-the-art technology. There were machines and instruments that she never saw in any hospital before. On her left, she saw a lab with a lot of chemical-filled bottles. Steams came out of some glass jars as they were burning on a small gas stove and changing colors. Other assistants were working on the right side of the rooms. A light smell of medicine wafted up to her nostrils.
Mingshen banged open the door to his office and sat on his chair. "Tell your piece and get out."
Lihua broke out of her stupor. "Why are you always so mean?"
"Because I don't have time to babysit a dumb child like you. I hate children."
"I think you mean humans in general," Lihua chided.
"Glad that you got my point."
"Hmph! I am not interested in staying with a crazy doctor either! We are here to-"
"Check Lixue," Wei's quiet voice rang in the air.
Lihua looked at him in surprise. "Huh? Me? I am fine."
Wei hesitated. "I mean now that we are here, it's better that Mingshen take a look at you."
"Really? But I feel fine…"
He somehow convinced her and made her sit on the chair. Wei sat beside her and glanced at Mingshen. "I feel she is a little stressed out. Family matters and... someone troubling her today."
Mingshen narrowed his eyes. He got an inkling that it was related to some person who knew her identity as Song Lihua.
"I see…"
Lihua quickly said, "Oh that? You don't need to think about it really. That woman took me by shock by suddenly calling me out with some other name, but I am not really stressed out."
Mingshen snickered.
I see what you want me to check~
"Lie down on the bed."
"But-"
"Either lie down or get out."
"..."
She grumbled her grievances and did as told. Mingshen did a basic checkup and ran a quick scan of her brain.
He checked the reports and said, "Get out and come back after taking a round in the corridor."
