“Mr. Tong Le but you’re the kindest, bestest person I know~~”
Tong Le pulled me aside and turned to Jing Tian. “We just had a falling out with the other brothers. You should know about the challenges ahead. How can I leave now? Leaving you with this burden…” He pointed at me. “Do you think you can compete with them?”
Jing Tian stood up and sighed. “I know you were out of option when you claimed my niece as your fiance. Aiz! At the end of the day, she is my niece. Never mind, I’ll do this myself. I’ll just hit her up with sedative all the way to Country L.” Jing Tian said as he moved upstairs.
“But Jing Ni is already weakened. The doctor said she can’t have too much sedative in her body, it’ll leave behind permanent damage!” I cried. Jing Tian and I didn’t even need to share a look to know what was on each other’s mind.
Tong Le walked around in a circle and shouted at Jing Tian before he could get to Jing Ni. “Stop, Jing Tian. Damn you!”
I took that as a success. I smiled internally.
The most important thing now was to send Jing Ni away. At the same time, I had to make sure that my little uncle leave this place, I won’t let anyone harm him.
Jing Tian wanted to take the hit for my little uncle because he had saved Jing Ni’s life. So we had the same goal.
…
My little uncle wanted Brother Xiao Jing to stay behind to guard me but I staunchly refused. Brother Xiao Jing had to stay beside him or else I would be so worried. I had Su Shen and Su Qian as well as Brother Hu’s unit. They might not be as powerful as Gao Jing but they were locals. They would be able to protect me.
We reached a standstill until Jing Tian uttered, “Have you forgotten about Gao Da? Do you think he’s weaker than Gao Jing? Do you want the two of them to fight it out?” My little uncle finally surrendered.
After everything was arranged, they departed immediately. Jing Ni was still the same. Other than my little uncle, she refused to let anyone get close to her. She had trapped herself in an unknown world. Only my little uncle’s voice and presence could make her calm down.
Jing Tian and I were helpless. Other than being anxious, we couldn’t do anything. My little uncle explained the situation patiently to Jing Ni who was curled up in bed. He was extremely patient. I was surprised that my extremely childish little uncle had this side to him.
Jing Tian and I finally sighed in relief when Jing Ni and my little uncle got on the plane.
Jing Tian assigned people from the Ardent Flame Alliance to protect me but I refused. As I said, troubles would come no matter what. I couldn’t be on the defensive all the time. These people would make their moves regardless. I already had a direct confrontation with the Brothers so what was I afraid of? I believed my little uncle and Jing Tian were being too careful.
Jing Tian warned me. “Master Shi and Master Gu Er might go easy on you because they still give your mother face. However, Wei Peng might not do that, he has always been a heartless person. Furthermore, you have insulted Lee Yang before him. He wouldn’t let you off so easily. Also Gu Nian is not someone to be trifled with. Nanxing, you have to be careful. Su Shen and Su Qian will follow you 24/7 to protect you.”
I gasped. “I still have to attend classes! Are you expecting me to attend classes with 2 bodyguards? You might agree to it but the other professors might not!”
Jing Tian ruffled my head. “You don’t need to worry about that. Just know that they will always be by your side. Don’t panic if you run into any danger. Keep calm. Su Qian will teach you some self-defense technique and you have to learn them seriously. It can save your life at critical moments! Also, do not be fooled by appearances. Don’t let people take advantage of your kindness. You might be thinking you’re doing a good deed but actually they were trying to scam you. The world is a dangerous place, you have to promise me to be careful!”
I hugged him and stood on tip toe. “I promise, now where is my reward?”
He knocked on my head but he couldn’t hide the smile on his lips.
I pulled on his tie to make him bend down so that I could kiss his lips.
He held my waist. After my vicious ‘attacks’ he finally rewarded me with a warm and long kiss.
This man has acted with such self-restraint due to the promise he has given my little uncle. I hate and also love him for it.
But what can I do? This is the man that I love. Eventually my seduction will succeed! I have already made him mine in my previous life, I refuse to believe that I couldn’t duplicate that success in this life!
