Chapter 564 - Fresh
Transtator: Lonelytree |
My uncle crossed his fingers and spoke in a deep voice, and he looked at me
seriously. “Nanxing, I wasn’t at home at that time. I didn’t witness the scene
with my own eyes. I can’t jump to conclusions, but I won’t hide anything fromn
you. Big Brother has always been coveting your blood. He wanted to use the
Tong Family’s resource to set up a research team specifically to study your
blood. It would bring the “Tong Family endless wealth. He suggested your
parents to give birth to another child after they surrendered you to the Tong
Family. Before you, there were no children with a foreign surname who has
inherited the family’s unique bloodline.”
There was a deep sense of guilt in my uncle’s voice. “In the beginning, Big
Sister and sister- in-law did their best to help the Tong Family earn money so
that they would let you go. However, after noticing Big Brother’s attitude, they
started to gather leverage so that they could negotiate with him. The situation
got worse and worse.”
My uncle sighed softly. “It’s all because of desire and greed.”
I agreed with my little uncle.
“What about my second uncle? I should still have another uncle, right?” I asked
my little uncle.
My little uncle pulled himself together. He let out a sigh of relief. “Second
Brother had always been responsible for the legitimate business of the family.
Second Brother was very serious and had a bad temper. He sent me to study
abroad and gave me a small living allowance. I had to eam money for myself. I
also had to work in the family’s branch company. To prevent my identity from
being exposed, I had to rotate from department to department and start from
the most basic jobs. On top of that, I had to make sure I stay on top of my
studies. If I failed any subject, he would hit me. I was more afraid of him than
of my dad.
Big Brother, on the other hand, would secretly give me money. When l was
young, I also thought that Big Brother was better than Second Brother.
However, after the tragedy struck, I realized the things my Second Brother
gave me were something money couldn’t buy. I was able to support the Tong
family by myself because of the training second brother gave me back then.”
My youngest uncle smiled. “Later, I also wanted to train you in such a way.
However, you were even more rebellious than I was when I was young, and Jing
Tian was there to pamper you. I couldn’t cultivate your business talents but
instead had made you into an underworld leader. A bunch of hooligans
followed you around, calling you Sister Xing. You couldn’t imagine how I felt
back then!”
My little uncle shook his head with a bitter smile.
I was a little surprised. “Really? I was an underworld leader?”
My little uncle nodded. “The Tong Family’s underworld group is called Dragon’s
Gate. Jing Tian has his own group called Ardent Flame Alliance. You also
started your own group called Sky City. There are more than a hundred
members now”
The youngest uncle’s voice deepened. “After you disappeared, sky City
members felt so guilty. I had to ask Gao Jing to take over. They will be so happy
when you return. I don’t understand why they are so loyal to you when you fail
at your studies and haven’t amounted to anything. Genes are really amazing.
Back then, your mother was more influential than Big Brother in the
underworld too.”
I smiled. “All these sound like the story of another person. It’s very… novel”
My uncle’s eyes were filled with heartache. “Nanxing, the Tong family has let
you down.
I shook my head gently. “It’s all fate.” I was silent for a moment. “Little uncle, I
might not be able to forgive eldest uncle for what he did to me. Do you
understand?
My uncle wiped his face and smiled bitterly. “Nanxing, I don’t have any right to
intervene.”
