Chapter 664: Mingshen, the benefactor
Mingshen sneered. “Since my assistant is happily playing with the twins, there is no case against me. He is not trapped here at all. How dare you throw mud at my name in front of my Spicy!?”Jia grimaced and ignored him. She looked at Zexi and said, “Well, since Bojing is all fine, we really have no case against him.”
Zexi bit her lip hard. “But but…”
She smiled and ruffled her head. “Don’t worry. You should head back. Bojing is fine. Even if he is a psycho devil and a heartless creature, he won’t hurt Bojing. Don’t worry.”
“But he won’t let me meet Bojing!”
“Of course he will. I think he must be really busy,” she narrowed her eyes. “Right Yang Mingshen?”
“Of course, Spicy. How can I ever lie to you? Wouldn’t lightning strike me then?”
“Yeah I really wish it strikes you now,” she dryly said.
After much convincing, Zexi finally agreed and left with Jia.
Mingshen turned his back and immediately dialed Bojing’s number. “My dear assistant,” he sneered.
“Boss…”
“If your playtime is over, I need you to buy some stuff for my experiments. So get going,” he coldly ordered.
Bojing sniffled and shed tears on the other side, “B-but it’s my turn to hide and let Limei find me. How c-can I leave? The twins will be sad…”
“Yeah, do I look like a person who cares about emotions?” He snorted. “Get your ass out of the Zhao villa right now!”
He cried. “O-okay…”
“Also buy a new sim card on your way back.”
“Si-sim card? You are getting a new number Boss?” He sniffled again.
He smiled. “Not me.”
Mingshen cut the call and sneered. When he turned, he saw Jia staring at him with her hands folded below her chest.
“Spicy!!!” He ignored that she might have heard everything and beamed at her reappearance. “Did you miss me, Spicy? I missed you too! Since you are here, how about we have some cozy time in my office~”
Jia raised her brow with interest. “Are you going to be the evil witch in their story?”
He blinked.
“Don’t look at me like you don’t understand. You are indeed not letting Bojing and Zexi meet. You called back Bojing immediately and even wanted to change his number.”
Mingshen’s gaze glimmered with mischief. “Of course not Spicy. I really want some stuff for my research. It was time for him to return anyway.”
“Considering how he was in the middle of playing games with the twins, I don’t think so.”
Mingshen pouted. “Spicy, your future husband is right in front of you and you are talking about another man? That hurts. I am very possessive.”
She snarled and kicked him viciously on his knee. “Don’t change the subject.”
“Oww. Spicy, your kicks are so amazing. My knee feels so numb,” he brightened, completely unfazed by the pain.
“You do realize that Bojing has his own life, right? I know being a pain in the ass is your job, but isn’t this too petty?”
Mingshen squinted his eyes. “My dear Spicy. Bojing is my assistant. He has better things to do than getting entangled with a woman.”
Jia scoffed. “Excuse me? Aren’t you doing the same with me?”
Mingshen lazily said, “It’s because I know what I am doing. But Bojing is too uselessly soft and innocent. Plus, he is hardly twenty-two. His life belongs here in the lab and with research. I won’t let a mere teenager distract him from his job.”
“You cannot dictate what his life should be or how he should live.”
“I can,” Mingshen leaned his shoulder on the wall and crisply retorted. “I brought him out of that hellhole he was stuck in with Li Dong. I taught him to read, write, eat and learn medicine. I taught him how to harness his killing machine of physical strength. I shaped what he is right now. I am his benefactor. His foremost duty and responsibility is to serve me. I am always and will be his first priority. He has belonged to me since the night I took him in as a part of the Yang family. I decide what is good for him and what is not and love is not in his agenda.”
Jia stared at him hard, studying his eyes and expressions. “Ah…I get it now. You just don’t want him to start ignoring you if he fell in love with Zexi.”
“…”
She burst into a loud laughter. “Oh my God…I understand now. You are just too possessive of Bojing as your little brother and you don’t want your little brother to forget about you. You think he won’t pay attention to you or make time for you anymore. Ahahahaha. So just admit that you will feel lonely if he gets into a relationship.”
Mingshen’s mouth violently twitched. “You know, Spicy. I am head over heels for you and I don’t wish to insult you. But you are not making any sense.”
Jia chuckled. “I am making perfect sense. This is actually a revelation,” she gasped, “The seemingly cold and heartless devil doctor actually has a brother complex. You just said you want to be Bojing’s first priority. Always. That just simply means that you don’t want anybody to replace your importance in his life. Aww, the evil Yang Mingshen who disdains at love and emotions actually cares for his brother’s attention so much that he gets jealous and cannot bear to let him have a girlfriend~”
Mingshen inwardly gritted his teeth. “That is pure nonsense.”
Jia dismissed him and kept laughing. “Ahahahaha. No wonder you were preventing Bojing and Zexi from meeting.”
Just then, Bojing entered and peeked in. “Boss…I-I brought the things you-”
“What took you so long!?” Mingshen grabbed his arm and dragged him out of his hiding place. “Were you lost in the city like a little lamb?” He glared at him.
Bojing paled and burst into tears. “I-I-I…I just…I am sorry, Bo-Boss…”
“Get back to work right now and don’t even think of getting any free time!”
Bojing trembled and hugged the bag to his chest. “Y-yes!”
He hung his head low and began to leave when Jia caught his wrist. She smiled at him. “Do you want to spend some time with sis Jia?”
