Chapter 524 A sign of betrayal?
Jiang Zhen had also clearly heard Wei's answers to Mingshen's questions. It was a test to know if Wei was lying about his mental state or not. But even during hypnosis, Wei thought about his relationship with Lihua and how he was still married to her.
Mingshen poked his cheek, who was still asleep, "Hey, hey. I didn't think you would lose your fuel so quickly. One loss and you already became mental?"
He raised his brow, seeing Jiang Zhen in deep thought. "What? Are you wondering if I did a fake hypnosis? Which means that you are doubting my support."
Jiang Zhen either had the option of saving himself or admit that it was exactly what he was thinking.
"Of course not, Yang Mingshen. Who is a more qualified doctor than you?"
Mingshen gave him a thumbs up. "If you are thinking of taking Wei to Li Dong and affirming his mental state, then please do so."
Then he evilly smiled. "But what would happen to our cooperation after that would be your consequences to bear."
Jiang Zhen chuckled. "Threatening me?"
"I am in the position to threaten you. Imagine how Li Dong would take it if he knew that I was here to test on Wei instead of him? Isn't he your partner actually? At least in his not so intelligent brain. He doesn't know that he is a trash to be discarded by you. So if you wanna take a trash's second opinion, then don't bother to set up a cooperation with me."
The smile suddenly disappeared from his face. "I am Yang Mingshen. My authority and capabilities are the absolute best. If you doubt ME, then take note that I can not only test people's craziness. I CAN make them crazy if I want to. I don't like Wei, but the one thing admirable in him was his absolute trust in me as a doctor. Which I broke. That's why the Underworld was how it was before you exploded it. If you want it to the same level of peace, then don't even think of doing anything stupid. Remember. You only have to ACT as if you are working with Li Dong."
Jiang Zhen burst into a chuckle. "Come on, you got too serious. I was just kidding."
"It better be. Now I will be back to my lab. You called me on such short notice. This is the first and last time I am entertaining this. You need to make a prior appointment before taking my services. Also, transfer two hundred million in my account."
He choked. "Two hundred million? What, are you robbing me?"
He sneered. "Do you think I work for free? My time and expertise is extremely valuable. You have to pay equivalent to that. A hundred million for coming here, and a hundred million for not taking a prior appointment."
His mouth twitched.
Mingshen smiled. "You see, I get a lot of funding from the Mafia King's family. Wei was an excellent prospect. He didn't even sweat if I asked for five hundred million. Now, you are the Mafia King. So get to your job."
"You…" Jiang Zhen didn't even want to calculate how Mingshen would suck his money dry if he continued asking for help.
But he was all worth it.
"You will get it before you reach your lab."
"That's what I wanted to hear."
Outside, Lihua and the rest were extremely worried. "Wei! How is he?"
Mingshen beamed. "I would like to deliver the news with pleasure that your ex-husband has completely turned mental. The switch has completely flipped out."
Her gaze turned cold. "Mingshen!"
"I would suggest keeping him locked up in chains so that he doesn't hurt anyone. Poor man is still thinking that you are his wife. He is even planning a long vacation on some island."
Lihua froze.
"Ah, today was a good day," he laughed and walked away.

"Boss!"
Li Dong was busy cutting the skin of a young twenty one years old boy as he did some of his tests on him. His face turned black on being disturbed.
"I hate it when someone breaks my concentration. Who is that bastard? Lie on the table and save my time."
The guard gulped in terror. "Boss, please forgive me! But it was urgent. You have ordered us to let you know anything about Yang Mingshen…"
Li Dong stopped and narrowed his eyes. He raised his head. "Yang Mingshen?"
"Y-Yes. I got some news."
Li Dong removed his blood-stained gloves and discarded them in the trash.
"What?"
"Boss, I heard that Mr. Jiang Zhen was with Yang Mingshen in the Jiang villa today. Jiang Wei was causing a ruckus and after Jiang Zhen reached, Yang Mingshen was also there…"
He tilted his head. "With Yang Mingshen?"
"Yes. Mr. Jiang Zhen wasn't sure if Jiang Wei was faking his mental condition or not. So…"
"So he took Yang Mingshen with him to verify instead of me."
He gulped and lowered his head. The temperature had significantly dropped.
"What is Jiang Zhen doing? Aren't we supposed to work together? He promised to hand over all of his assets to me on a silver plate. Hmm…Do I sense betrayal? Call Jiming."
Jiming was Jia's code name after she entered Li Dong's base.
She stood in attention.
He smiled. "I saw your fighting abilities. So I want to ask if your information gathering abilities are just as good."
"Try me out."
"Ohh I like confidence. Get me more information on my dear enemy, Yang Mingshen. If there is any secret affair Jiang Zhen is having with him, then it's your job to find out."
She bowed. "Will do."
"If you bring me some solid news, then I will promote you," he brightened. "Just get me all the details. I don't like backstabbers."
Her eyes twinkle with an unknown emotion. "Yes, Boss."
Outside, the guard who delivered the news to Li Dong came in Jia's way. "Thanks for the tip. Boss was so happy he gave me a hefty award."
Jia smiled in the mask. "My pleasure."
"How did you come to know about it?"
"You will never know that because you won't be alive."
"What?"
Out of nowhere, Jia pushed a dagger straight into his neck. His vocal chords tore apart even before he could scream, and he collapsed, dead.
