Chapter 496: Wait
Translator: Lonelytree
Xiao Yi told that this island belonged to Tong Hui’s son, Mr. Tong Zhuo. Tong Zhuo locked his father up on this island to treat his illness, but Tong Hui wasn’t very grateful.
This surprised . When I first t Tong Hui, he told he didn’t care about living anymore. He showed little desire for life. I thought he was lying to . It appeared like that was not the case.
“I’m surprised my cousin, Tong Zhuo, is so filial!” I muttered.
Xiao Yi frowned. “That might not be true.”
“What do you an?” I didn’t understand.
Xiao Yi said, “Everyone is quite afraid of Mr. Tong Zhuo. I hear that Mr. Tong Hui and Mr. Tong Zhuo aren’t on good terms.”
Not on good terms? Then why was Tong Zhuo trying everything to save his father?
Plus, Tong Hui made it sound like we would be a big happy family when we first t. He said Tong Zhou would like and take care of them. Then again, this could all be a long ga for him.
Xiao Yi nodded. “It’s true.”
I didn’t say anything. I felt that sothing wasn’t right.
“Where are Tong Lin and Tong Yan?” I asked. “Also Yan Yu and Yan Xin. All these old friends. Where are they?”
Xiao Yi said briskly, “They don’t have much status on the island. They’re basically the sa as . They’re slaves. They have to do everything they are told to do. They don’t have a will of their own. They have quite a miserable life.”
I was a little puzzled. “Aren’t they Tong Hui’s children?”
Xiao Yi pursed his lips. “Mr. Tong doesn’t admit that they’re his children. His only child is Tong Zhuo, even though he didn’t like Mr. Tong Zhuo that much either. However, he still treats Tong Zhuo better than his bastard children.”
“But Tong Yan acted like she owned the world. Why is that?” I recalled.
Xiao Yi suddenly stopped talking.
I raised my eyebrows. “Is there sothing wrong?”
Xiao Yi’s face turned a little pale. “Miss, Tong Yan has been disposed of. Before you ca, they had to rely on her blood to heal Tong Hui. Even though her blood couldn’t cure him, it could alleviate the pain. That’s why Tong Yan was so arrogant.” Xiao Yi then beca flustered. “Miss, I heard the horrible things they did to Tong Yan when she was the blood vessel. Would they do the sa thing to you?”
I honestly had no idea.
As we were chatting, soone ca to invite . “Miss, Sir wants you to see you.”
Xiao Yi and I looked at each other, feeling a little nervous for so reason.
Xiao Yi imdiately blocked in front of . “Miss isn’t feeling well now. She’ll go et the master after two days.” Tong Le would arrive in two days. The silly child was quite quick on his feet.
The man didn’t even look at Xiao Yi. He repeated, “Miss, Sir wants you to see you.”
Xiao Yi beca even more nervous. He stood in front of and refused to let go.
I stood up and patted him on the shoulder. “It’s alright. Your guess might not be right. Let go.”
Xiao Yi insisted on following . He wanted to protect .
I consoled him. “It’s alright. Good people don’t live long, but horrible people live for a thousand years. I’m a horrible person.”
Xiao Yi was on the verge of crying. “Sister Xing, you… I… What should we do?”
“What can we do? We’ll deal with whatever cos our way. What’s the big deal? Don’t worry. If sothing were to happen, it would have happened a long ti ago. Why would they wait until now?” I comforted him.
Reality proved that I was really a walking jinx. Bad things were about to happen. And they had been waiting patiently while brewing up the intensity..
