Dating My Scumbag Ex's Uncle

Chapter 597 Interrogation

I looked down at Banxia. She was lying on the ground, looking up at me. We looked at each other.

I was on guard against Ma Ji, but I was not on guard against Banxia. Banxia had taken care of my everyday life, my food.

She had been drugging me, helping Ma Ji to control me.

“Good, very good. You did a good job. Ma Ji should reward you.” Ma Ji had even taken into account my possible doubts about her. So she planted Banxia beside me. I was impressed.

Banxia used her sleeve to wipe away the tears on her face. She stopped crying. “Everyone has the right to live. This is what you taught me. I know you want to teach me to have a kind heart and believe in the goodness of the human heart. However, only the living has the right to be kind to others. If I don’t do this, I won’t live. Madam did this so that you could stay by their side obediently. What’s wrong with that? What’s so bad about having no memories? Haven’t you survived all those years just fine?” Banxia started to wax some nonsense.

Mr. Li was so angry that he laughed. “If it’s just fine having no memory, then why did you work so hard earlier to vomit out the poison?”

Banxia glared at him. “It’s different. She’s Nanxing. Even if she is paralyzed, she’ll have people taking care of her. What about me? I have no value. Who will mind me?”

I nodded in approval. “You’re not wrong.” I asked Mr. Li, “After she lost her memory, do you still want her?”

Mr. Li nodded. “Yes, yes. There’s still a use for her. At the very least, she can be used to test my medicine.”

Banxia knelt upright with a resolute expression. “If you’re willing to let me live, I’m going to listen to your orders from now on!”

Mr. Li and I looked at each other and said indifferently, “That depends on what you’re willing to exchange for it. You’ll have to pay a price, right?”

Banxia bit her lip and looked at me. “Mrs. Ma Ji is already here. She’s on the island. Sir’s condition isn’t too good right now, and he urgently needs your blood to prolong his life!”

I couldn’t help but feel shocked.

The current island was completely under the control of Jing Tian and my little uncle. How could Ma Ji sneak in?

Banxia knew I didn’t believe her. “It’s true. Madam is very good with disguises. She had already arrived after I released the first signal flare. But she hasn’t been able to sneak into this manor because the security is too strict. If you cure me, I’ll tell you where she is.”

She listed the conditions.

Mr. Li sighed. “It’s a pity that I don’t have the antidote. I thought you would have the antidote. I was hoping that you have the antidote.”

Banxia’s gaze turned venomous. “Didn’t you say that you could cure her poison?”

Mr. Li shrugged. “I can cure her, but I can’t cure you. You people don’t understand Ma Ji. She’s a psychopath. She must have been deeply hurt by a man before because her poisons are always colored with emotions of love. For this poison, the antidote is the blood of the victim’s lover. Coincidentally, there’s such a man by Nanxing’s side. What about you? Do you have one?”

Banxia’s face instantly turned ashen.

Her lips were trembling. “Will you take my life?”

“No,” Mr. Li and I said in unison.

Banxia heaved a sigh of relief. “Alright, it’s better to be alive than dead.”

She seemed to accept the fact that she was about to lose her memory.

I frowned. “What did Ma Ji promise you that you’re willing to sell your life to her like this?”
