Chapter 543 Li Dong and the Lu clan

Chapter 543 Li Dong and the Lu clan　　"Ah my Lu Bojing. There you are~ Come, Come. I was waiting for my favorite Subject 026!" He grinned.

Lu Bojing shuddered upon hearing his voice. The fear that was suppressed deep inside his heart for all these years along with the memories was slowly beginning to creep back. He was hiding behind Jia and refused to come out.

Li Dong sighed. "My dear Bojing. Don't you want to spend the good old times with me? Don't you remember how we enjoyed it a lot?"

Lu Bojing's face was wet with tears. He looked as if somebody was sucking out his soul. Jia had tried to calm him down along the way, but the trauma was too much to bear.

Li Dong patted the seat on a chair which was connected to some tubes and wires. "Come, come, sit here. I have been waiting for you for a long time."

He paled and tried to run away, but Jia had firmly held on to him. She signaled him with her gaze to do as he said.

She coldly said, "Do what Boss is saying. Or should I be violent?"

Li Dong clicked his tongue. "No, no. Don't hit my dear Bojing. I won't support violence," he sternly berated her.

Lu Bojing was made to sit on the chair as Li Dong tied his wrists with a metallic band that looked like an aluminium foil.

He smiled. "You know, I always wanted to know the source of your inhuman strength and the limit to which you could bear pain."

Jia's gaze turned frosty without his notice.

"Even as a child, your tolerance was off the charts. As an adult now, it would have been only doubled. I want to see how much you have improved."

Li Dong flicked his finger on an injection that contained a liquid. Lu Bojing's eyes widened in horror. He vigorously shook his head as more tears came gushing out of his eyes.

"No…No…I don't want to be here…"

He remembered something similar happening in his childhood. The eight-year-old Lu Bojing was tied to a chair just like today. Li Dong's sinister figure was brooding over him as he tested different drugs and medicines upon him. He couldn't remember anything but pain after that.

Everything was too painful to bear.

Li Dong leaned closer to him and smiled. "Say, Lu Bojing. If you pass all my tests, do you know how happy I would be? It's because I would get a one man army! A man who could kill at the snap of his fingers and a man who could tolerate whatever pain is thrown at him. Any form of torture will be useless on you. You are the kind of guy men in the Underworld would be dying to get their hands on. And once I test you, I will proceed to cultivate many other such subjects like you. It's like they will be your clones. In fact, you will be happy to know that I am partially successful in creating a few of them."

Jia narrowed her eyes.

"I just need some more data from you to perfect them," his eyes sparkled in ecstasy. "And then…and then I will truly get my own unbeatable army. Nobody will be able to defeat me. Even that Jiang Zhen who is looking down on me!" He sneered. "He thinks he can ditch me and team up with Yang Mingshen? Well, he can surely dream. Once I perfect my army, nobody will dare take light of me. Everybody will be at my mercy! His puny and weak men wouldn't be able to even lift a finger against me! Hahaha!"

Jia raised her brow.

Hooo…this is interesting…and extremely useful.

Her eyes twinkled.

I know what to do now.

Li Dong laughed. "Then I will overthrow Jiang Zhen and become the Mafia King. I will be…I will finally be the King!" His body trembled in excitement.

Jia didn't know whether to feel angry at him or pity him.

That dream is never gonna come true.

"Ah…How I wish Lu Jingyi would have been here too," he sighed.

Lu Bojing froze.

Lu Jingyi…?

He remembered Zhao Weisheng saying once that Lu Jingyi was his mother's name.

"...S-She is my mother…" he cried.

Li Dong raised his brow. "Of course, I know. Why wouldn't I know a woman for whom I was so crazy in love with?"

His jaw dropped in utter shock.

Jia squinted her gaze.

I didn't know about this and neither did Mingshen.

"If only your mother had accepted to become my wife, your family wouldn't have died in such a tragedy~"

Lu Bojing was blank.

"Did that oldie Zhao Weisheng not tell you how Jiang Zemin and another Underworld group burned down the Lu clan?" He twirled the injection in his hand.

He shuddered. He clearly remembered the history that Zhao Weisheng had told him and Lihua when they first met him.

"Can you guess who that other group was?"

His eyes slowly widened in terror. He shook hard, realizing that it was Li Dong.

"... I-Impossible…" he gasped and cried. "That's impossible. You-you are working with Jiang Zhen now. J-Jiang Zemin was his father's enemy…"

"So? Collaborations change and break up all the time~ I supported Jiang Zemin at that time because he was the Mafia King. He obviously held more power than Jiang Shan. And I wanted that power to have my revenge on the Lu clan. Lu Quan. That bastard who stole my woman away from me. That bitch Lu Jingyi too chose him over him," a dark storm was swirling in his gaze.

"I tried to make her understand so many times that she was making a grave mistake by rejecting me. But that bitch never realized my sincere love for her. Lu Quan got so furious that he personally beat the crap out of me for harassing his wife."

Li Dong laughed. "Harass? Wife? Lu Quan had lost his mind. Jingyi was mine. How dare he claim her as his. But even when I was beaten and broken up, she said nothing. She didn't stop her husband. She was enjoying my misery. She seduced me first and then threw me away. She played with my feelings. So, I had to take my revenge," he clenched the injection tighter in his palm.
