Zhao Weisheng heard the whole ordeal with a grim expression. He was silent.
Lu Bojing burst into tears. "I am sorry! It's all my fault...I couldn't protect you. In the end, I was still useless."
Lihua grimaced. "You….you are impossible! You killed the whole gang, and you say you didn't protect me? If that leader hadn't sneakily escaped, he would have been dead too. It's not your fault. You had your hands full with more than ten men."
She smacked on his head. Now that she recalled the fight again, she stared at Lu Bojing hard.
So much so that he couldn't help but blush. He felt conscious under her scrutiny.
"That reminds me...how did you fight with them?"
What was this one-eighty degree change I witnessed today? Isn't he the same Bojing who took that punch from that huge man in the supermarket?
Lu Bojing twitched his brow.
It was all out now. The secret that he wanted to hide from her was exposed.
Wouldn't Song Lihua get angry if she knew Boss sent me? Doesn't she hate Boss for her memory loss?
So will she not hate me too?
Thinking about Lihua hating him brought tears to his already wet eyes.
"No, don't hate me…" he covered his face.
Lihua was speechless.
"Why would I hate you? You saved me! Why are you crying? I just want to know how you suddenly got so strong?"
Then she sheepishly grinned. "Is it because you unlocked some hidden power seeing me in danger?"
Lu Bojing sniffled and shook his head. "No."
Her mouth twitched.
You could have just agreed to keep my heart…
Lu Bojing shrunk into a ball and fiddled with his fingers.
Qingqing looked at him in disdain.
There he goes again, turning into a ball of fear. Useless!
Lu Bojing looked left and right and licked his lips anxiously. "I-I was always like this…"
Lihua blinked her eyes. "Always?"
"Yes...I-I look like this, but my arms and legs have insane strength. My one punch can rupture someone's insides."
She choked.
Are you serious!?
She looked at his thin wrist and then back at him. Zhao Weisheng also stared at him with interest.
"I am very strong. B-Boss says it's impossible to win against me in a physical fight…"
"Boss? Who?"
Lu Bojing stiffened.
"I...I…Yang Mingshen…" he mumbled.
Lihua stared at him in utter disbelief. "Huh? That evil doctor?"
He coughed. "Yes. He is my Boss. I work under him. I am his assistant."
She sharply gasped. "What!? Assistant? What was his assistant doing in my apartment complex as my neighbor? Shouldn't you be working in his lab?"
This was a great revelation for her.
He cried. "It was Boss's orders. He said it was my promotion to be your n-neighbor."

"..."
"It was my job to protect you. Both as a doctor and...a sort of a guard too…"
This was too much of a shock for Lihua's brain.
"Okay. First you say that you are his assistant, and then you claim that Mingshen sent you to protect me? Are you sure it's to protect me?" She was suspicious, "Not tricking me into becoming his research subject?"
Lu Bojing couldn't blame her. Kindness wasn't Mingshen's virtue.
"I-It's true. M-Maybe because you saved Boss from that attacker that day. So-so he decided upon this...Boss doesn't like to be in anyone's debt."
She grimaced. "It wasn't debt. I didn't help him out of that notion. I just did what I felt was right."
Lu Bojing shook his head. "Y-You don't understand him. He doesn't l-like to be helped. If someone does help him, then he would do what that other person would need the most. As an exchange. It's give and take for Boss. I-In your case, you needed protection because he knew that Mr. Jiang Wei's enemy was lurking somewhere. There were high chances he would come for you to threaten him. So he sent me…"
Lihua had complicated feelings about this.
Was this the same Yang Mingshen who took her memories away? To think he had sent someone from the shadows to silently protect her…
Even though Lu Bojing said that it was give and take for him, Lihua seriously doubted this.
Maybe...he has his own way of taking care.
"...Guess he does have a tiny bit of heart," she mumbled.
Lu Bojing added. "Only for those who help him…"
Then remembering another important point, she had a jaw dropped. "Wait! So when you mentioned your benefactor...you were talking about Mingshen?"
Lu Bojing nodded.
Her mouth heavily twitched.
No wonder…
No wonder that benefactor felt so narcissist to me!
'My benefactor said that I don't need a certificate because he has taught me medicine. Only fools will ask for it.'
Of course, who else would he be other than Mingshen!?
That arrogance and self-confidence! It could only be him!
Lihua continued. "That means it was Mingshen who rescued you."
Rescue and Mingshen...These two words don't seem to fit in the same sentence.
Lu Bojing nodded again.
"But why?" She frowned. "It seems unlike him to do that."
Lu Bojing bit his lip. "He said that I was s-special. My strength is different from others…"
Lihua gasped. "Oh my God! Did he make you his research subject?" She sobbed. "Are you okay? How did you survive with that devil!? How did you keep your sanity?"
!!!
She wiped her eyes. "By the way, that's another question bugging me which I already asked just now. How are you so strong?"
Lu Bojing shook his head. "I don't know. It was always like this. I asked Boss too...But he would just smile at me and say nothing."
Her brow twitched.
Suddenly, Zhao Weisheng, who was quietly listening to them all this time, asked, "What is your name, son?"
"L-Lu Bojing…"
"Ah. Then it makes sense," he nodded. "I had an inkling."
"What makes sense Grandpa?" Lihua asked.
"Lu Bojing. Lu family. He belongs to the Lu clan. It was the greatest martial arts clan years ago when I had founded the Underworld. Unfortunately, it was annihilated by Jiang Zemin and another Mafia group in cahoots with him. I don't know how he is still here when the clan was already destroyed.. But Lu Bojing is the last surviving descendant of the Lu clan."
