I patted him. "Little uncle, you've done your best. Short of burning me and putting me in a box, there's nothing else you could do."
His eyes reddened.
I reached out and hugged him. I rubbed my cheeks against his chest. "Little uncle." He was the only family I had left in this world. There were sobs, but I knew I couldn't cry.
I gently pushed my little uncle away. I raised my head and smiled. "I plan to be the heir of the Tong family!"
My little uncle's voice was nasal. "That position has always been yours. The Tong Family and Dragon's Gate are under your control!"
I nodded.
I saw Qu Hao and Du Heng.
Qu Hao opened his arms to me.
I was a little hesitant. He was Mai Qi's older brother and Jing Ni's boyfriend.
Qu Hao walked over and hugged me. "Nanxing, from now on, you're my little sister like Mai Qi. Call me when you need me!"
I knew the weight of his promise.
I smiled at him and nodded. "Big brother!"
