Dating My Scumbag Ex’s Uncle

Chapter 578: Poisoning

Translator: Lonelytree

Mai Qi was proud and smug. Jing Ni, on the other hand, blushed and said nothing.

I knew Jing Ni was someone who was soft on the outside but hard on the inside. Mai Qi was the complete opposite. I was very fortunate to have them as my friends.

Jing Ni didn’t want to be teased, so she forcefully changed the topic. “Lu Yan and Gu Nian are a pair of a strange couple. They can’t get along but won’t split up. Last year, Lu Yan threatened to commit suicide. Both families forced Gu Nian to submit. Ina fit of anger, Gu Nian ran to this remote place. After
that, Lu Yan chased after him. Her goal was nothing more than to force Gu Nian to marry her and give her status. She can’t possibly marry anyone else after everything that she has done for Gu Nian’s sake. She won’t let Gu Nian marry anyone else either.”

I suddenly understood. “I see. No wonder she treats me like an enemy. So I’m her love rival!”

Mai Qi patted me. “What love rival? There’s nothing between you and Gu Nian. If Jing Tian hears about this, he’s going to be so furious that you’ve created a love rival for him.”

I pursed my lips into a smile. “Why are you protecting him so much? He’s not afraid of a love rival!”

Jing Ni quickly replied, “Of course he’s afraid. You don’t know this, but after seventh uncle regained his memory, he found out Gu Nian took a knife for you. He felt so guilty for not saving you. However, he couldn’t attack Gu Nian for saving your life, so instead, he went after cousin.”
She was talking about Jing Ning. Jing Tian had already told me about this.

Mai Qi said, “Jing Tian is too kind. I wouldn’t have cared about this. Gu Nian was willing to take that knife. No one forced him!”

Jing Ni and 1 looked at Mai Qi speechlessly.

Mai Qi waved her hand. “Fine, stop giving me the stare. I’m just saying this because Gu Nian is haunting our Nanxing like a ghost!”

I patted her hand. “He’s not a bad person. At least he’s not an enemy. We should be more polite to him. As for that Lu Yan… that depends on what she plans to do.”

Mai Qi nodded, not afraid of any trouble. “She can do whatever she likes. We’ll handle it!”

liked Mai Qi’s flamboyance, and I also liked Jing Ni’s introverted and quiet personality. I felt safe around them.

Banxia came back excitedly and asked me if I had seen the fireworks that she had specially set for me.

I praised her without batting an eyelid and even gave her a set of expensive jewelry as a reward. She left happily.

Tasked Mr. Li, “Is she poisoned?”

Mr. Li nodded. “Of course, but I don’t intend to cure her.” He wasn’t in a good mood.

I smiled. “Alright, it’s up to you.”

He very carefully drew a small tube of blood from my wrist. His already dark face tuned even darker. He felt more heartache than I did.
“I’s fine. My body can produce more blood. I’ll eat more good food. In fact, I’m not feeling that bad.” I consoled him.

“Hmph! I wish I could strangle that wretched girl to death. Why did she have to cause so much trouble for me?!” He said hatefully.

I pulled down my sleeves. I sighed. “I was too careless. I never expected that they would go to such extreme lengths and completely disregard the consequences. It’s really too inhumane. At this point, I can’t even tell if it’s my uncle who is using Ma Ji or Ma Ji is using my uncle.”
