The Mafia King's First Love

Chapter 149 - The One Who Opened Her Heart

Mingshen was amused and amazed at the same time. The heart of an average human was generally tilted towards the left. But…

The assistant doctor was dumbstruck. "Boss...she has dextrocardia…"

It is a rare medical condition in which a person's heart is tilted towards the right instead of the left. It is congenital which means that people are born with this condition.

Mingshen was having trouble holding his laughter. It made the assistant gulp in his throat and tremble in fear. The eerie smile on his lips and the amusement sparkling in his eyes was anything but delightful that sent a shudder down the poor assistant doctor's spine.

Oh, God. I think Boss just got his precious research subject. It's as if he found treasure. Well…

A person with dextrocardia is rare after all…

Mingshen stared at her with a twinkling in his gaze. "Who knew that I will find my treasure in you, huh Song Jia? You are a doctor's feast."

The assistant doctor's mouth twitched.

"Well, technically you should be dead. You are that Mafia King's enemy after all. A mafia's enemy shouldn't be kept alive."

Then the twinkling disappeared and his gaze turned cold and calculating.

"But...I cannot let you die, sweety. You are important to me for my research," he smiled, "And if that negative EQ Wei couldn't kill you in one shot then it's not my problem, right sweety? Right, assistant?"

The assistant, Lu Bojing, jolted. "H-Huh?"

Mingshen's sharp and menacing gaze landed on him. "You didn't listen to what I asked?"

"Yes, I did! Of course, you are right!"

He nodded. "Wei lost all his rights over her when she was brought over to my base. So even if she is alive, I am in charge of her~"

"Yes, Boss!"

Mingshen lowered his head and leaned towards her. "Time to save you, sweety. Don't worry. You are in capable hands. The best doctor in this whole wide world."

The surgery was successful. Mingshen extracted the bullet. It was a close call and if Song Jia had been brought in any later, she could have died. The bullet didn't pierce her heart, thanks to her dextrocardia condition, but it had still managed to graze it which was life-threatening.

Even though she was saved, she was still in a critical condition because she was in a comatose state for two months. Her heart was recovering from the wound that made her pulse really weak. She was alive but barely hanging onto her life. Mingshen had to test and use a lot of drugs to keep her condition stable. Dextrocardia, at times, also affected the functioning of other organs, which made her already vulnerable. On top of that, she had undergone such surgery.

For two months, Mingshen dedicated his whole time in the lab to improve her condition. He closely monitored her and spent sleepless nights just to form new medicines to recover her as soon as possible.

That's why he always got extremely mad at Wei who disturbed him with his questions about understanding love and Lihua. Mingshen was busy treating Song Jia and Wei would incessantly call him, disturbing his focus.

In his office as Mingshen studied the reports after the surgery, Lu Bojing asked, "Boss. Do we really do not need to inform Mr. Jiang about her?"

Mingshen narrowed his eyes. "Why? So that he kills her again and I lose my precious subject?"

He shot a dangerous glare at him, making him take a step back. "It must never reach anybody's ears that Song Jia is alive especially when…" he squinted his gaze, "Wei is interested in her sister."

Lu Bojing was speechless.

He likes the sister of the woman who he killed!?

Mingshen smiled and got up from his seat. He placed his palm on his assistant's shoulder that made his knees go jelly in fear.

"That's why my capable assistant, I implore that this fact shouldn't reach anybody's ears or I…" his index finger touched the tip of his earlobe, "will have to tear off your ears from your head."

"..."

Boss will really do it! He sobbed.

The cold touch of his finger felt as if he would do it right away.

"So keep your mouth shut, okay?"

He vigorously bobbed his head up and down.

"Good."

At present, Mingshen smiled at the unconscious Song Jia lying on the bed.

"It's such a headache honestly that the man who killed you has married your sister. For the first time, he is regretting the fact that he killed you."

He laughed. "You know, my dear subject, he wishes he hadn't shot the bullet that day. That means...he wishes you to be alive. He even erased your sister's memory just to hide his guilt hahahaha!"

"And you know what? I couldn't help but laugh at him the whole time! Poor Wei was begging me to help him. He didn't want to lose your sister, so he asked me to erase her identity. She doesn't remember you anymore haha! Even though you are alive~"

He rested his hand on the pillow and traced the contours of her face as he gazed at her. The pale figure on the bed didn't move.

"A pity isn't it, Song Jia? Your agent and your friend are trapped in Wei's base. Your sister lost her memory. All because they think you are dead. I feel so bad, but well you are so precious to me. I cannot let it reveal that you are still alive and breathing. I wonder what Wei's reaction will be if he knows this."

He chuckled. "He will be so over the moon. But that still won't erase the fact that he tried to kill you. So I guess he was right in taking away Song Lihua's memory. Oops! She is Jiang Lixue now haha."

He sighed, "Well anyway, it is just pure luck that you are alive. That made you born with this rare condition which inevitably saved your life that day. Well, luck is a big part but you have to give me credit too, so…"

Mingshen slowly brought his hand forward and lifted her chin with the tip of his finger. His muscular body leaned on top of hers. His deadly handsome face inched closer and closer to hers and he whispered,

"Song Jia oh Song Jia, will you give me your heart?"
