Chapter 36: Boss
Translator: Lonelytree
Why is he coughing so badly? Is he sick?
I turned around to look at Jing Tian. He looked surprisingly conflicted. I was puzzled.
Jing Tian tapped my head lightly, “Nan Xing, he’s really your uncle!”
What??I widened my eyes.
Tong Si finally stopped coughing, “Damn you, girlie! I already told you I’m your uncle!”
I turned back to look at Jing Tian again. Jing Tian appeared to have a hard ti explaining this matter, but in the end, he nodded at .
I waved at the courtyard and the clutter around the house, “Are you sure he’s not a robber or kidnapper?”
Tong Si grumbled, “Be reasonable! Those 4 are the real kidnappers. If my people hadn’t arrived in ti, you would have been captured by them already. Or worse, killed!”
I countered back, “If not for your people exposing us, my group would have gone underground to hide already!”
Jing Tian held his forehead in his palm and then raised his hands to stop us from arguing, “Can you two please calm down? Is this not chaotic enough as it is?”
Tong Si shrugged and then turned to Brother Hu’s group. “The four of us, co over here.” They moved over with shaking legs. They stole glances at . I imdiately walked over to stop before them. “What do you plan to do? They are my people.”
Tong Si studied who was covered in gri and dirt. “Your people? What do you an?”
I told him directly, “You’ve already taken as their boss, so I have to look after them! If you have any problem, talk to ! I won’t allow you to harm them!”
My little quartet of four almost cried. “Big Sister Xing!” Tan Si sobbed. The most rational of them, Brother Hu pulled on the corner of my shirt, “Sister Xing, we better let Master Si finish first.” I thought for a mont and then turned to Tong Si.
Tong Si looked at with a complicated expression. Then he turned to Jing Tian. “What has she been learning? Who taught her these things?”
Jing Tian was as dumbfounded as Tong Si was. At that mont, Brother Hu brought his brothers to bow respectfully at Jing Tian, “Master Tian!”
This ti I was who was shocked. “Wait, you guys know him too?” Then it hit . I should have known that Jing Tian’s real business had to do with the underworld after he returned that day with heavy injury.
Brother Hu answered respectfully, “We know about Master Si and Master Tian, but I’m sure they don’t know about us. After all, we’re just small fries.”
I looked at Jing Tian. Jing Tian looked at Brother Hu. “You’re Han Cheng’s people?”
Brother Hu’s eyes lit up. He was surprised that Jing Tian knew of them. “Yes, Master Tian.”
Jing Tian frowned. “Then who has Han Cheng offended recently that his gang dissolved overnight?”
“That would be !” I pointed at .
Jing Tian and Tong Si looked at with shock. Neither of them spoke.
I lowered my hand with so embarrassnt. “Don’t you believe ? Han Cheng stepped on my toes and I sent him packing. What’s so surprising about that? Brother Hu said, the remnants of Han Cheng’s gang has collected into a club and they want to be their boss! I was still thinking about it when the four masked n ca to ambush us. Considering how well we had cooperated, I have decided to agree to beco their boss.”
Brother Hu’s eyes glowed. “Big Sister Xing!”
I felt extrely proud!
“Nan Xing! Co with !” Jing Tian ordered darkly. Then he grabbed my wrist and pulled along with him.
Tong Si made to follow but Jing Tian stopped. He growled, “Tell your people to clean up this place and then get lost!” Then he pulled upstairs.
Tong Si stopped in his tracks. Looking at the ss around him, he said helplessly, “Jing Tian, even you have lost your manners tonight, is it?”
Jing Tian ignored him.
I turned around and made a funny face at Tong Si. But at the sa ti, I pondered.?Why didn’t this uncle show up in my previous life then?
When we reached the second floor, I pointed out my bedroom for Jing Tian. Jing Tian pushed in and closed the door behind him.
He looked grim but I was not afraid of him. I leaned towards him with a smile.
Jing Tian pinched my chin and studied my face closely. “Where’s the chickenpox?”
Hmm, what chickenpox??Then it hit . I was supposed to be suffering from chickenpox, it was why I was quarantined at the Nan Family’s old ho!
“Erm, ah, huh. The chickenpox, yes, I’m healed. Yes, it’s a miracle. They all disappeared overnight.” I said with a ingratiating smile.
Jing Tian let go of my chin. As I rubbed my face, I moved closer to Jing Tian, “Are you angry at ?”
Jing Tian stared at and said nothing. I knew he was angry with but he didn’t have the heart to scold .
Jing Tian is so cute!
I hugged his muscular arm. “Please don’t be angry. I had no choice!”
