Chapter 430: Poisoning
Translator: Lonelytree
“So, you’ve decided to antagonize Dragon’s Gate and Ardent Flame Alliance?” My little uncle asked coolly.
Tong Yan was startled.
Her gaze fell on Jing Tian again. “Jing Tian, I want you to consider it carefully. I’m not inferior to Nan Xing in any way. Why must you choose her over me? Besides, Nanxing will only cause you trouble, but I can save your life!”
Jing Tian smiled. His face was pale, and his smile seemed to be very tired. “Love is not a business, and you can’t lay it out in pros and cons. Instead of forcing me, why don’t you go back to check on your organization?”
Tong Yan was confused.
I said coldly, “I believe the police are already raiding your organization’s hideout. You better go back to check.”
Tong Yan glared at me hatefully.
I shrugged. “You don’t believe me? It’s fine. I didn’t expect you to. However, I will remember this. You have poisoned and tried to steal my fiance. So, your surname is Tong?
“I don’t know what hole you crawl out from, but you are clever to pick that surname. You know that is my uncle’s soft spot. As long as you have the surname Tong, he will always show mercy. However, I’m not that kind and principled!
“Instead of wasting time here, we should go our separate ways for now. You need to go back to check your organization, and we’ll go back with Jing Tian. We’ll meet up three days later and see if we still need each other’s help or no communication is needed anymore. What do you think?”
Tong Yan said proudly, “Nanxing, you’ll come back to beg me. No one in this world can cure Jing Tian’s poison but me!” Then, she turned around angrily. She waved her hands, and her people put away their weapons and retreated.
Jing Tian slumped into my arms. I quickly carried him into the car.
He grabbed my hand. “Nanxing, stay with me.”
I crawled in and sat beside him. I was so nervous that my tears fell. If the woman wanted anything but Jing Tian, I would have surrendered it. I could give her the world to save Jing Tian. However, I could never hand her Jing Tian.
Things were not looking well for Jing Tian. Tong Yan’s people moved out of the way to let us pass.
I hugged Jing Tian. He looked exhausted, but he still looked at me with a smile. “Nanxing, you are amazing. You’ve learned well. I’m very happy.”
I couldn’t stop my tears.
“What did they poison you with?” I asked.
Jing Tian shook his head. “Don’t worry about it. They’ll come back to us.”
There were fine beads of sweat on his forehead. I pulled out a tissue to wipe his sweat. “Jing Tian, are you in pain? Where does it hurt? We’ll get you to a doctor now.” I turned to shout at the passenger seat. “Little uncle, we need to get to a hospital. Jing Tian is in a lot of pain. We need to help him.”
My little uncle tossed me a bottle of medicine without turning around. “Nanxing, get Jing Tian to take two of these pills.”
I shook out the pills without checking the label and brought them to Jing Tian’s lips. Jing Tian turned his head away, “Tong Le, are you sure about this?”
My little uncle answered coolly, “What else can we do? Jing Tian, don’t worry, I’ll supply you with the medicine for the rest of your life.”
Jing Tian smiled. He grabbed my hand and put the two pills back into the bottle. “Nanxing, put them away. Don’t waste them. I can still stand this. Besides, these pills are highly addictive. I don’t want to become a drug addict for the rest of my life.”
I didn’t know what to do.
Jing Tian looked at me. He told my uncle and me, “Don’t worry. They will have to come back for me. Tong Yan came out on her own. The people above her didn’t know about her little excursion. She was merely bluffing. They wouldn’t let me die like this..”
