The Physician Tycoon

Ye Kai quickly stepped forward, grabbed Wu Hui's hand, and squeezed it tightly. Wu Hui screamed, "Ah!"

Ye Kai took Wu Hui's hand out and retrieved a pistol from the drawer.

Ye Kai retorted sarcastically, "Teacher Wu, what brings you to handling handguns?"

Ye Kai sat in the chair, fiddling with his pistol, looking at Wu Hui.

"Now what excuses do you have left? Just confess already."

Wu Hui stubbornly turned her face away, "Even if you beat me to death, I won't say a word!"

Ye Kai began to provoke Wu Hui, "You are also a citizen of Great Xia, so why are you willing to be a lackey of the Japanese?"

"You became a traitor, bearing eternal infamy, all for this villa?"

"You're supposed to be a university professor, yet your ideological awareness is worse than a farmer's!"

The villagers back home hate the Japanese with a passion, and you actually helped them, bringing disaster to our Great Xia!

But no matter what Ye Kai said, Wu Hui turned her face away and remained silent.

Ye Kai angrily pinched Wu Hui's cheek and turned her face towards him.

"You turned your face away, are you ashamed to talk to me? You also think what you did is shameful, right? Now I'm giving you a chance to redeem yourself. Tell me, who is the Night Emperor!"

Wu Hui snorted coldly, "I don't know who the Night Emperor is!"

"Looks like you won't behave unless I teach you a lesson."

Ye Kai pressed several acupoints on Wu Hui's body, and a wave of intense pain surged through her.

Wu Hui felt as if millions of ants were biting her body, or as if thousands of venomous snakes were gnawing at her. She was in so much pain that she fell to the ground, rolling around and screaming loudly.

Hearing the commotion, Lu Wenqing rushed into the room and saw Wu Hui's miserable state. Enraged, she demanded of Ye Kai, "Why did you do this to my daughter? You scoundrel, get out of here!"

Ye Kai touched Wu Hui's body, and the excruciating pain immediately disappeared, leaving Wu Hui feeling relaxed all over.

Lu Wenqing stepped forward and hugged Wu Hui. "Hui, how are you?"

Ye Kai sneered, "She won't die!"

Lu Wenqing pointed at Ye Kai and said angrily, "Who exactly are you? Why did you try to harm my daughter?"

"You should ask your daughter what shameful things she has been doing."

"Hui, what exactly happened? Tell your mother, and I'll stand up for you."

"Mom, this is none of your business. You can go now."

Lu Wenqing took out a tissue and wiped away Wu Hui's snot and tears, saying with pity,

"Look at the state you've become! You still expect me to take care of you? If I don't, he'll kill you."

"Old lady, you should try to persuade your daughter. She's working for the Japanese and has become a traitor."

Lu Wenqing glared at Ye Kai and retorted, "Don't talk nonsense! My daughter is a university teacher, how could she possibly be a traitor?"

"Your daughter transferred Daxia's money to the Japanese; she's an accomplice of the Japanese. I have evidence."

Ye Kai took out his phone and played Yang Liuqing's recording. After listening to it, Lu Wenqing asked suspiciously,

"Who is this person? Is what he's saying true?"

"His name is Yang Liuqing. He is the vice president of Jiangzhou University and a lackey of the Japanese."

Lu Wenqing questioned Wu Hui, "Hui, is this true? Why are you working for the Japanese?"

Wu Hui tried to argue, "Mom, don't listen to him. He's just framing me. I didn't do anything."

At this moment, Ye Kai received a message from Lan Bing saying that Wu Hui's mother, Lu Wenqing, was Lu Wenwei's older sister.

Ye Kai said to Lu Wenqing, "Ms. Lu, I have something to tell you, but please don't get agitated."

Lu Wenqing asked, "What's the matter?"

"Is Lu Wenwei, the vice president of Jiangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, your younger brother?"

Lu Wenqing nodded. "Yes, what's wrong?"

"He's dead."

Like a bolt from the blue, Lu Wenqing was stunned.

"How could he be dead? How come I didn't know about this? Are you telling the truth or something?"

"He died yesterday, killed by his wife Liu Qing."

Why did Liu Qing want to kill him?

"Liu Qing's real name is Iga Haruko. She is from Japan and is working undercover to monitor Lu Wenwei."

Why is she monitoring my brother?

"Lu Wenwei was working for the Japanese. He introduced female college students to them and helped them hide their funds. When his scheme was exposed, the Japanese killed him to silence him."

Wu Hui shouted, "Mom, don't listen to his nonsense! He's the one who killed my uncle, and now he's trying to frame the Japanese!"

"Wu Hui, even now you're still denying it. I'm also a student at Jiangnan University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. How could I kill the vice-principal of my own school?"

Wu Hui, if you believe you are innocent, do you dare to come back with me?

Wu Hui fell silent. Ye Kai continued, "The Jiangzhou police have already mobilized and are searching the entire city for you. Should I talk to the police and ask them to send someone to extradite you?"

Seeing that she couldn't deny it, Wu Hui tried to get closer to Ye Kai and gain his sympathy.

"Ye Kai, we're from the same school, and I'm a friend of your girlfriend's father, so I'm considered your elder. We still have a relationship."

I made this mistake in a moment of confusion. Please forgive me this time. I promise I'll stay home and behave myself from now on and won't get involved in these things again.

"Tell me who the Night Emperor is, and I might consider letting you go."

"I really don't know who the Night Emperor is."

"Do you know what the Night Emperor has done? He has been amassed wealth in Great Xia, using that money to research viruses and poison the people of Great Xia, with the aim of bringing down Great Xia and eventually conquering it."

"If you become an accomplice to this kind of person, you are a traitor. Slap your chest and ask yourself, don't you feel ashamed? Have you done right by your ancestors?"

Wu Hui fell silent.

Lu Wenqing asked Wu Hui, "Xiao Hui, is what he said true? Are you really helping the Japanese against Great Xia?"

Wu Hui tried to argue, "Mom, don't listen to his nonsense. I'm just an ordinary teacher. Even if I wanted to be a traitor, I wouldn't have the qualifications."

Lu Wenqing then asked Ye Kai, "Young man, you say Wu Hui is a traitor, do you have any evidence?"

"Ms. Lu, please sit down here and let me show you the evidence."

Ye Kai let Lu Wenqing sit down on the sofa, and then helped Wu Hui up to sit in a chair.

Ye Kai knew Wu Hui wouldn't tell the truth, so he had to use a soul-capturing technique to make her speak.

Ye Kaichong stared at Wu Hui, and two beams of white light shot into Wu Hui's eyes, taking control of her brain.

Ye Kai demanded, "What's your name?"

Wu Hui answered honestly, "My name is Wu Hui."

"Have you done anything for the Japanese?"

"have."

Upon hearing this, Lu Wenqing excitedly tried to stand up, but Ye Kai stopped him.

"What are you doing helping the Japanese?"

"I acted as their liaison and helped them transfer funds."

Lu Wenqing's face turned extremely ugly, and he slumped onto the sofa.

Who is your boss?

"The Night Emperor"

Ye Kai was thrilled; he was finally about to find out who the Night Emperor was. He took a deep breath to calm himself down and then asked, "Who is the Night Emperor?"
