Dating My Scumbag Ex's Uncle Chapter 925
Miss Fang Jing departed without a backward glance.
I found myself genuinely impressed by Miss Fang Jing. Raising my voice, I declared, “Miss Fang Jing, if you follow Yang Yang, you will undoubtedly find the person you seek!”
Fu He bellowed, “Nanxing! Cease stirring up more trouble! Do not be swayed by Nanxing!”
I offered her a smile. “Miss Fu He, exercise more composure. You have already conceded defeat, so step aside gracefully.”
My gaze turned to the silent Lin Nan. “Only someone as composed as Miss Lin Nan is truly worthy of becoming the princess consort!”
Lin Nan offered a smile. She cast a glance at the individuals who had already made their exit and stated indifferently, “Nanxing, your only intention is to use them to escape this place. Why employ such indirect methods?”
I couldn't help but chuckle. “Observe what Miss Lin Nan says. If I didn't employ these tactics, how would I garner their cooperation to leave? If I attempted to depart alone, I would be apprehended instantly. If they can be utilized by you, or even eliminated by you, why can't they serve my purpose? At the very least, I have presented them with an opportunity to escape.”
Lin Nan adopted an expression of thoughtful pity. “Nanxing, there is no returning for you. Widespread rumors suggest you have reneged on your commitment to Jing Tian. Now, the entire world extends its sympathy to Jing Tian, and the multitude of girls eager to console him are likely forming queues on the other side of the globe. Jing Tian... cannot even venture outside his home.”
I nodded. “I am aware of this. It is Wen Dian’s doing. Let him proceed; Jing Tian will not be deceived.”
Lin Nan's brow furrowed. “How can you be so certain Jing Tian will not believe it?”
I smiled. “How could I not understand my own man?”
Observing from the periphery, I noticed Yang Yang and the others engaging in a dispute with the guards at the entrance. A sense of relief washed over me.
“Lin Nan, you and Wen Dian are indeed a destined pair. I wish you both a lifetime of happiness together!” With a smile, I took the mute girl’s hand and we proceeded towards the exit.
“Nanxing! You must realize I will not permit you to depart from this place!” Lin Nan’s tone was gentle, yet her eyes conveyed a different message.
The instant her words concluded, the four female guards stationed beside her lunged towards me.
I seized the two cups of wine that Zhao Mei and Yang Yang had placed before me, untouched, and hurled them at their faces, proclaiming, “That remains to be seen by your actions!”
The two individuals at the front, focused solely on seizing me, paid no heed to the wine being flung their way. However, as the liquid struck their faces, it rapidly permeated their skin.
Two high-pitched screams reverberated within and beyond the chamber.
The pair collapsed, writhing on the floor, their faces appearing to dissolve.
Snatching a small blade from the table, I concealed it in my palm and propelled the mute girl towards the exit.
Lin Nan displayed a flicker of exasperation. “Nanxing! Listen to me. We can negotiate terms!”
Negotiate terms? Did she mistake me for a simpleton?
I pulled the mute girl along, forging a path through the throng. The crowd instinctively made way for us.
Yang Yang was still embroiled in her argument with the gatekeeper. I deliberately pricked my left palm and hurled the bloodied knife. The gatekeeper, no novice himself, attempted to evade by turning his head, but this proved to be a fatal miscalculation. The projectile, aimed for his neck, was unavoidable. He witnessed the small flying blade embed itself in his throat.
The gatekeeper crumpled to the ground, unable to rise. A few tremors wracked his body before he lay still.
The Mute girl had already reached the gate. With considerable effort, she managed to wrench it open.
The women surged forth like an agitated swarm of bees.
Moments later, cries of agony pierced the air.
Yang Yang stumbled back, her body drenched in blood. “Nanxing! Nanxing! There’s an ambush awaiting us outside!”
