Chapter 661 Cousin
Tong Zhuo? Tong Zhuo is here too?
I looked around in surprise and couldn’t help but grab Jing Tian’s arm. Tong Zhuo made me nervous.
Suddenly, applause came from the side door.
A man in black wearing a black hat walked in, followed by two bodyguards.
The man in black walked in slowly and stood behind Tong Hui. He took off his hat slowly and raised his face. He smiled at me. “Nanxing, long time no see. You’re much prettier than in the photo. You’re indeed a beauty from a young age. You didn’t disappoint me.”
I stepped back instinctively. Fear rose from the bottom of my heart. Tong Zhuo jumped out of my memory in an instant.
Jing Tian pulled me into his arms and patted my head lightly, indicating that I shouldn’t be afraid.
Tong Zhuo was still smiling. “Are you Jing Tian? I’ve seen your photos, and this is the first time I’ve seen you in person.”
Jing Tian said coldly, “Are you Tong Zhuo? That heartless cousin of Nanxing’s?”
Tong Zhuo chuckled. “Heartless? That’s a good conclusion. It’s true that I don’t have a conscience. Nanxing, how much do you remember about your childhood?”
I calmed down. With Jing Tian by my side, I got over my fear.
It was my instinctive reaction to be afraid of him.
Tong Zhuo chuckled. “You’re still as cute as you were when you were young. When you were young, I used to carry you around and play with you. Do you still remember?”
I shook my head. “I don’t remember. I only remember that I have cousin Mo. He had always protected me from being bullied. However, I was young and immature back then. I didn’t like it when he was angry at me. I really regret it now. I regret not calling him brother more often. It’s my fortune to have such a good brother like him.”
The smile on Tong Zhuo’s face froze as expected. “Darn girl, you’ve suffered so much, but you haven’t learned anything.”
“You’re the one who has a lot to learn.” Jing Tian and my little uncle blocked me behind them.
Tong Zhuo looked at my little uncle and sneered, “Isn’t this my dear little uncle?” Tong Zhuo didn’t think much of Jing Tian. “Do you think you can protect her? Dream on!”
“I’m sure I can protect her,” Mr. Li said quietly.
Tong Zhuo’s expression changed.
Mr. Li looked at him. “Are you his son?” He pointed at Tong Hui, but he really didn’t need an answer.
Tong Hui’s expression was ghastly, but the way he looked at Tong Zhuo was passionate.
“Nanxing, as long as you’re willing to cure your cousin Zhuo’s illness, I’ll get you whatever you want,” Tong Hui suddenly pleaded.
The tense situation was broken by Tong Hui’s plea.
Everyone couldn’t help but look at him.
Tong Hui stared straight at me. “Nanxing, I was wrong. I apologize to you. I will bear all the sins alone, but can you please save your cousin? As long as you save him, I’ll give you everything I have.”
He looked at me with a face full of hope. He didn’t look as arrogant as before at all.
I squeezed out from between my little uncle and Jing Tian. I asked him, “You have just been poisoned. Don’t you care about your own situation? Mr. Li said it’s Ma Ji’s life parasite. Don’t you want to know the details?”
Tong Hui said repeatedly, “It’s not important. It doesn’t matter what happens to me. As long as your cousin is cured along, I am willing to suffer.”
This was truly deep fatherly love.
Unfortunately, Tong Zhuo stood at the side and coldly said, “There’s no need for you to lower yourself and beg others. I won’t accept your favor.”
