I Become The Richest Man With A monthly Salary of Twenty Thousand Yuan-Chapter 657 - 464: Don’t Believe It

A possibility occurred to Ning Mingjun, and he immediately took out his phone to send a text message to a nurse at the private hospital where Xiao Yunxiu was being treated. He asked where Doctor Ye, the attending physician responsible for Xiao Yun, had gone during his months-long leave.

This Doctor Ye had left a profound impression on Ning Mingjun.

Originally, Doctor Ye had been quite normal. But since his return a few months ago from some undisclosed place, he had changed his tune completely, often boasting about Xia Liang and calling him a real "Living Immortal."

Keep in mind, at that time, Xia Liang was not yet as famous as he is now. He hadn’t gone to Jinling, nor had he been to Haojiang. But even back then, Doctor Ye had started praising Xia Liang. He even suggested that Old Master Ning Jiacheng visit Master Xia, saying he might be able to cure Xiao Yun.

When the rumors about Xia Liang from Jinling and Haojiang later reached them, Doctor Ye mentioned Xia Liang in every other sentence, urging Old Master Ning Jiacheng to seek his help.

If not for this Doctor Ye, Ning Jiacheng might have waited a bit longer before visiting Xia Liang. By that time, Xia Liang would have already left Xiangjiang. All of this seemed a bit too deliberate.

A few moments later, a reply came back. By then, Ning Mingjun had reached the doorway.

"Doctor Ye went to Qingyun City before. Why do you ask, boss?"

Looking at the message, Ning Mingjun’s brows furrowed slightly.

Qingyun City, Qingyun City?

He turned off his phone, muttering the name to himself, feeling that something was amiss. He looked at the others waiting outside the door and suddenly asked, "Do you remember where this Grand Master Xia came from?"

"If I remember correctly, Master Xia became famous starting in Qingyun City. He’s also from there," someone answered earnestly from outside.

Upon hearing this answer, realization dawned on Ning Mingjun. He stopped in his tracks at the doorway, an expression of sudden understanding on his face.

Inside, Ning Jiacheng and Wu Tong also noticed something was off with Ning Mingjun and looked toward the door.

Old Master Ning Jiacheng said directly, "Why are you still here, boy? Leave."

Ning Mingjun, standing at the doorway, slowly turned around, closed the door behind him, and remained inside.

He suddenly felt he had understood everything. He finally knew why Xia Liang was aware of when Xiao Yun would awaken. It had all been a well-designed conspiracy! Months ago, Xiao Yun’s attending physician must have seen signs that her condition was improving and predicted she would awaken in a few months. Doctor Ye could have even controlled the dosage to have Xiao Yun awaken at a specific time. Afterward, Doctor Ye took a leave of absence and returned to Qingyun City to contact Xia Liang. This Xia Liang must know Doctor Ye! The rumors about Xia Liang were all false, intended to make Old Master Ning Jiacheng believe in him. That’s why Doctor Ye had been praising Xia Liang all this time. Then, at the right moment when Xiao Yun was about to awaken, Xia Liang would be able to make her "safely" recover from tens of kilometers away. It was all a plot! Although Xia Liang had just refused the building, what he really wanted was certainly something far more extravagant!

At this thought, Ning Mingjun sneered.

"Why have you come back? Didn’t I tell you to get out?"

Seeing Ning Mingjun suddenly turn back, Old Master Ning Jiacheng was taken aback and scolded him immediately. Wu Tong also looked at Ning Mingjun with questioning eyes.

Only Xia Liang managed a helpless, wry smile and took a sip of tea.

Through the System, he already knew what Ning Mingjun was thinking. He had just checked on this so-called Doctor Ye through Ning Mingjun’s destiny trajectory and discovered that the doctor was the cousin of Ye Yuan, the real estate tycoon from Qingyun City. Ye Yuan had sought his help back then and had earned several hundred Yuan because of it. That was why Doctor Ye boasted about him so much. It was a genuine coincidence. Yet Ning Mingjun thought it had all been arranged, mistaking the truth for a coincidence and the coincidence for the truth.

Upon hearing Old Master Ning Jiacheng’s reprimand, Ning Mingjun sneered at Xia Liang and said, "Father, I’ve figured it all out. This Xia Liang before you is a fraud!"

"How dare you! Master Xia is a Living Immortal. How could he be a fraud? What’s gotten into you today?" Ning Jiacheng rebuked his son.

But as he reprimanded him, Ning Jiacheng also felt very uneasy.

His son had always been very smart. At first, his disrespectful behavior toward Master Xia was understandable. But why, after thinking it all through, was he still clinging to his initial opinion? I just threatened to kick him out of the Ning Family. Yet he still insists Master Xia is a fraud. Could it be that there truly is some trickery here that my son has seen through?

Ning Mingjun said directly, "Father, I just called the hospital. Do you remember Doctor Ye, the one who’s been in your ear all day long, boasting about how amazing Xia Liang is?"

"Of course, I remember him. He’s Xiao Yun’s attending physician. What does this have to do with him? If you can’t give me a proper explanation today, I will have you kneel and kowtow in apology to Master Xia."
