Dating My Scumbag Ex's Uncle

Chapter 431: Poison

Translator: Lonelytree

My little uncle said in a low voice, “Jing Tian, I’m sorry. If I hadn’t been so charitable with Tong Lin back then, this wouldn’t have happened.”

“Tong Lin? What does he got to do with this?” I was surprised. The name Tong Lin had been erased from my mind. Why was he brought up again?

My little uncle didn’t say anything.

Jing Tian said indifferently, “What nonsense. One can’t outrun one’s destiny. In that case, we should take it head-on. Tong Le, this is not your fault, so don’t shoulder it. Do you understand?”

My little uncle still didn’t say anything.

They confused me. “Can either of you tell me what’s going on?” I hated being excluded.

Jing Tian looked at me with a gentle gaze. “Nanxing,?it’s nothing. You can stand on your own already. I heard that my father is now your fan? He wants to give the Jing Family to you as a betrothal gift.” He tried to change the subject.

I was displeased. “Can you tell me what’s going on? Since you said I could stand on my own, then you’ve acknowledged my abilities. Why are you still hiding stuff from me that? Also, why did that woman look at you like she owns you? I will twist off my head if she doesn’t like you!” I was furious.

My little uncle clicked his tongue. “You’re a girl. Can you not make things sound so bloody?”

“That’s because you won’t tell me what’s happening!” I gritted my teeth.

Both of them fell silent.

I glared at Jing Tian.

Jing Tian sighed imperceptibly.

“Nanxing, the people who kidnapped me want me to break into the government’s internal website and build a channel for them to steal secrets,” Jing Tian said slowly.

I nodded. “I know you wouldn’t let them succeed. I’ve planted a virus in their backstage as you’ve asked. I’ve edited my virus so that even you will have trouble removing it! But what I want to know now is who are these people? And who is Tong Yan?” My stubbornness had given Jing Tian and my little uncle a lot of trouble.

Jing Tian pulled me to his side. “I don’t know who the culprit is yet. The people who assaulted us and kidnapped me were merely hired mercenaries. Their status is not even as high as Tong Yan.”

I scoffed. “That’s why they were so polite to you that day! Do they think we won’t hold a grudge because of that? No way! Even if Dragon’s Gate and Ardent Flame Alliance wouldn’t pursue this matter, Sky City would! I will hunt them down!”

Jing Tian didn’t say anything, and my little uncle didn’t stop me.

“Tong Yan is the manager of the base that held me. I still can’t tell their organization’s structure. However, you should know Tong Yan. She is Tong Lin’s younger sister. She hates you because you had foiled her brother’s plan when he kidnapped you. She thought Su Qian was you, so Su Qian suffered quite a bit because of it.”

I got it then. She was taking revenge.

“What did you get poisoned with?” I asked him.

Jing Tian smiled bitterly. “Nanxing, this kind of poison is called forget-me-not. I can’t be more than a hundred meters away from the person who poisoned me, or I’ll be overwhelmed by weakness and intense pain. One way to neutralize the poison is to take another poison that can temporarily relieve the effects. However, the other drug is highly addictive.”

I was furious. “So, they are both poisons?”
