Transmigrated As My Former Uncle’s Sweetheart

uping sensed the danger and was about to whirl around and block the attack.
However, he suddenly teetered, which slowed down his movements slightly.

The attacker’s powerful palm strike landed on his body.

A metallic tang welled up in his throat.
Immediately, he spat out a mouthful of blood and toppled backward.

“Chen Xuping!” Horrified, Lin Qingyuan scrambled over to him.
“Are you all right?”

The corners of Chen Xuping’s mouth turned up at the sight of her alarmed face.
He lifted a hand to touch her face, but then went limp and passed out.

Seeing his eyes flutter shut, Lin Qingyuan thought he had died and cried out, “Chen Xuping, don’t die…”

Bai He stared at the person who had suddenly appeared and attacked Chen Xuping, too stupefied to utter a word.

Long Xuan’s irritation only grew at the sight of Lin Qingyuan weeping sorrowfully for the other man.

Recalling the scene he had stumbled upon when he had stepped into the trees, he felt all his blood rush to his head, making him lose his rationality.

He marched over to the sobbing woman and hauled her to her feet.
“Did you send me away just so you could meet your old flame in secret?”

Lin Qingyuan, who was still mourning Chen Xuping’s “death”, was taken aback by his accusation.

“What did you say?”

Long Xuan glanced at the man on the ground.
He was clearly the person in the painting he had found in her maiden room that day.

His face darkened at the realization.
He glowered at Lin Qingyuan menacingly and sneered.
“Why? You still want to deny it even though I’ve caught you in the act?”

Lin Qingyuan was infuriated by his foreboding expression as well.
“What the heck are you saying?” She shook his hand off and glared at him, seething with indignation as she recalled her encounter with the venomous snake just now.

She just had a close brush with death, yet instead of showing concern, he was hurling unreasonable accusations at her.

Desolation gripped her heart.

Of course—he was only interested in her when it came to bedroom affairs.
