Dating My Scumbag Ex's Uncle Chapter 927 Confrontation
Previously on Dating My Scumbag Ex's Uncle...
Lin Nan, Yang Yang, and the others directed glares at Lin Nan.
Fang Jing declared with disdain, "Is it wrong for me to call them bitches? Sisters, let's disregard them and make our escape. The young master will settle this for us. At the very least, we still have our own families to rely on.
"If we suffer any losses here today, we will hold the Lin family and the Fu family accountable! As long as one of us remains alive, the truth will be told. If we perish, retribution will surely follow!"
It was evident from Fang Jing's words that men most favored women who possessed both beauty and a lack of deep thought.
A bitter smile touched my lips in my heart.
Zhao Mei anxiously exclaimed, "Fang Jing, if you provoke them like this, they might end up killing every single one of us!"
Fang Jing raised an eyebrow. "They wouldn't dare! We have the backing of the Fang, Zhao, Yang, Wang, and Shi families. With so many of us present, and maintaining regular contact with our respective families, we can still consider ourselves sisters as long as we coexist peacefully. They cannot possibly silence all of us!"
I couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration for this wild rose, so fiercely protected by its thorns.
Lin Nan stated coldly, "Miss Fang Jing, do not forget that the Peony Garden operates under its own set of rules. I need only proclaim that you violated the young master's regulations and took your own life. In that case, what recourse would you have? Do you truly anticipate seeking revenge from me once you've become a ghost?"
Her gaze swept across the assembly with frigid intent. "You are all hostages provided by the various prominent families. Hostages are, by their very nature, prepared for the direst of circumstances. Therefore, when faced with a choice between your demise and offending the young master, what do you imagine your families would opt for? I advise each and every one of you not to overestimate your own importance!"
Lin Nan's pronouncement effectively quelled the arrogance that had inflated everyone present.
Turning her attention to me, Lin Nan continued, "Nanxing, as we've previously discussed, you are distinct from these individuals. You should remain here. Our collaboration is genuine, with the shared objective of utilizing the phoenix blood to aid a greater number of people. This endeavor is for charitable purposes and the well-being of the common folk. The Phoenix Blood is not solely yours to possess; you should allow its blessings to extend to all. Surely, you wouldn't be so selfish as to withhold such aid, would you?"
Lin Nan paused for a moment before raising her voice, "Regardless of your personal feelings, I am resolute in seeing this matter through. If you cooperate willingly, then naturally, happiness will prevail. However, if you resist, I regret to inform you that I will be compelled to resort to force. Furthermore, I shall ensure that everyone present meets their end alongside you! The finer details are inconsequential. I trust you understand my resolve, and I also believe you would not wish harm upon the innocent!"
Damn it! This woman's sheer audacity is infuriating. A surge of anger welled up from the depths of my heart. Simultaneously, I noticed a peculiar warmth spreading through my lower abdomen, entirely unlike the familiar sharp, cold pain I typically experienced.
Instinctively, I placed my hand over my lower abdomen.
Lin Nan then lowered her voice, speaking directly to me, "Nanxing, even if you disregard your own safety and the wellbeing of everyone here, you should at least consider the child within your womb, shouldn't you?"
"Jing Tian is unaware of your pregnancy. You have been away for such a considerable time. Upon your return and disclosure of your condition, do you even comprehend whose child it would be perceived as? The entire world already knows of your affections for another!"
A triumphant smile played on the corners of her lips.
So, this was their meticulously crafted scheme.
Overwhelmed with fury, I retorted, "Lin Nan, you have truly outdone yourself in demonstrating the absolute depths of your despicable and shameless character!"
