Dating My Scumbag Ex's Uncle

Chapter 548: Understood

Translator: Lonelytree

I got up from the bed gently and sat down on the chair by the bed, looking at him.

He adjusted his posture carefully and slowly, half leaning against the headboard of the bed. He pressed his hand on his abdomen carefully.

“Does it still hurt?” I asked him.

I thought I still hadn’t recovered my memory, but the words of concern came out of my mouth naturally.

Jing Tian nodded. “A little, but I feel much better now that you’ve stayed with me all night.”

He looked at me and smiled.

He was very good-looking. I had never seen such a good-looking person before.

Perhaps it was because I hadn’t seen that many people on the island. They all had gray faces. The people in my dream had no faces.

“Nanxing, did you have a nightmare?” Jing Tian asked me.

I nodded hesitantly.

I believed him, and it was my intuition that I could tell this man everything.

“Yesterday, you were very emotional. Master Xu and Master Li came to perform acupuncture and a ritual on you. They said you would dream and remember some memories through it.” Jing Tian said gently.

I suddenly realized something. “Did they do something to recover my memory?”

He nodded his head slightly. “Sadly, they can’t do much because they don’t know if you’ve lost your memory due to psychological trauma, physical trauma, or someone had done something to your memory. They didn’t want to rush into things, so they chose the safest method.”

I nodded. I would remember this kindness.

I looked at Jing Tian and watched him. As I did, my tears fell. I wiped them away gently. “My heart hurts when I see you injured. I care about you, and I trust you, but I can’t remember anything about you.”

Jing Tian was very happy. He reached out his hand to me. “Nanxing, come and sit beside me.”

I hesitated for a moment. My body moved on its own. I sat by his side.

He put his arm around my shoulder. We leaned against the pillow.

“Nanxing, it’s been three years and four months since we last met. I miss you so much.” Jing Tian rubbed his hand against the side of my head.

I couldn’t bear it. “Then, were you very sad?”

Jing Tian nodded his head lightly. “To be exact, I was in hell for the past four months. In the first three years, due to Ma Ji’s poison, I didn’t even remember you. I was very irritable and had a bad temper. It was hell for people around me too.”

I was surprised. “You were poisoned by Ma Ji as well?”

Jing Tian nodded his head.

“Is the poison cured now?” I knew Ma Ji’s insidious poisons all too well. She would cure her poison, but it would come at a very hefty price.

Jing Tian nodded again. He looked at me. “Nanxing, I’m sorry. I’m the one who dragged you into this. If I weren’t poisoned, you wouldn’t have fallen for Ma Ji’s trap. Ma Ji kidnapped you with me as leverage. I’m sorry.”

Jing Tian hugged me in his arms and rested his head on my shoulder. “I’m sorry, Nanxing. I’m the one who harmed you and made you suffer.”

I really liked being hugged like this. But I didn’t understand why he said he harmed me. What did it have to do with him?

Ma Ji caught me for my uncle. My uncle caught me to get my blood. When I was on the island, he said he kept me around because he needed to treat my illness. But in my dream, he wanted to exchange me for more wealth.

It had nothing to do with Jing Tian, so he didn’t have to blame himself.

I reached out my hand and patted his back cautiously and hesitantly. “It’s alright. It has nothing to do with you. Don’t blame yourself. It’s my problem, not yours.”

I comforted him.
