Chapter 433 - Stunned Little Friend

"I…"

Leng Zhiqiu immediately choked and flushed. Before he could say anything, the big boss picked up the small blanket in the basket with perfect fingers and carefully covered the snake with it.

It was clear from his expression that he didn't want the snake to be tainted, but Leng Zhiqiu…

No, was that necessary?

Wasn't it just a snake?

It was just a snake; a snake, alright?

It was covered in white muslin. He could only look at its head at most. Did he have to be like this?

Leng Zhiqiu, who felt a deep sense of disdain: "…" Who knew when Cong Hua would return.

He couldn't serve this old man anymore. It was better to be out and about doing things.

Aggrieved Leng Zhiqiu: Sob~

…

In Ling Mo's room.

As soon as Snake An was brought in by Ling Chuan, she smelled disinfectant.

A young man with his head wrapped in white bandages was lying on a pure black bed.

His eyebrows were very similar to Ling Chuan's, and his gaze was very arrogant and aggrieved. He had probably been forced to lie down?

For some reason, Snake An felt like gloating, but she obediently lay in the cradle and didn't say anything.

The doctor in the room had already reported the situation to Ling Chuan.

And there was that super good-looking girl from before.

Ling Chuan nodded slightly to indicate that he understood.

Then, the doctor and everyone else left.

Qiao Xinyi closed the door considerately to give the uncle and nephew some time alone.

"Why are you here?"

When he saw Ling Chuan put the basket in his hands on the counter next to his bed, he thought that it was some fruit basket, just like when a family member visited a patient in the hospital. A certain young man glanced at it disdainfully, and was almost scared out of his wits when he saw a snake head!

That handsome face was cold however, as Ling Chuan just said one word icily.

"You?"

The air pressure in the room seemed to drop; even the snake felt cold under the blanket!

Her Brother Xiao Chuan's face was cold and solemn as he said in a deep voice, "Is that what you call me?"

"I…"

A certain young man's expression was inexplicably diffident. He pursed his lips very reluctantly, but still obediently called out, "Little Uncle."

"So, why didn't you kill that trash?"

Ling Chuan's face darkened even more. He looked very unhappy, and his entire body seemed to burn with anger.

The young man's eyes turned even more obscure, and his face was extremely red. He explained softly, "My father isn't a murderer!

"He's not a demon!"

When he said that, the stubborn young man was already tearing up. Snake An couldn't help but feel her heart ache.

Her Brother Xiao Chuan said even more ruthlessly, "So, you think I don't know anything?

"I…"

The young man gritted his teeth and turned his head away without saying anything.

Ling Chuan sighed deeply and stared at him for a long time before he restrained his emotions and approached the bed with a cold face.

His face was clearly a lot gentler as he lifted the boy's blanket.

"What are you doing?"

The young man quickly shrank back vigilantly, clearly looking nervous.

At that moment, Ling Chuan looked like a big baddie bullying a child.

Ling Chuan was speechless. He gritted his teeth and said, "I heard that your hand is crippled. Take it out and let me have a look."

"I, I won't!"

The young man had a proud and handsome face. His bloodshot eyes turned to the side, and he curled away weakly from Ling Chuan.

He looked like he was about to cry.

"Why? Are you afraid that I'll laugh at you?"

Ling Chuan's expression was also very hateful. His lips curled up slightly as he gloated.

With that, he pulled the blanket away, not caring if he was willing or not.

Snake An couldn't take it anymore. She poked her head out to mediate.

"Hey!"

Ling Mo was a fearless little demon, but he was afraid of snakes. Very afraid!

When he went out with his little uncle every time as a kid, he had been out of control, but he would always be scared to death when he encountered snakes.

In the end, no one in the family raised snakes, and Little Uncle never allowed anyone to.

But now…

This snake actually crawled onto his bed?

Ling Mo was about to cry from fear. It was only because he knew that this snake had helped them that he endured it with all his might. However, it was already getting closer to him, and was about to touch him!

Ling Mo reached out to fling it away, but his little uncle's cold eyes swept over him, as if to say, "Touch it if you dare."

Ling Mo gritted his teeth. He was about to explode with anger, when he realized that the snake had crawled to the broken bones on his left hand and was looking left and right, as if it was surveying his injury?

Ling Mo was stunned. He forgot to be afraid of the snake, and stared at it with clear black eyes.

After looking for about a minute, it seemed to be in deep thought. Then, it went to where the family doctor had placed the medicine.

It had a goal, because its eyes were too bright as it stared at the medicine box.

After it went to the medicine box, the tail wrapped in white muslin opened it. It looked at the medicine inside, as if it was contemplating something.

Then, it turned to look at his little uncle, as if to ask him to get something for it?

Ling Mo was dumbfounded!

As the only son of one of the wealthiest families in the capital, Ling Mo felt that he had seen all sorts of novel things before; what he had seen before his family collapsed had been beautiful, and what he had seen after basically wasn't beautiful. However, Ling Mo had never seen a snake that seemed to know medicine. Wasn't this too unbelievable?

The curious child's eyes widened.

Ling Chuan couldn't think at all.

He tested it out by getting the snake some special Western medicine, put a piece of tissue paper on it, and took out an empty bottle…

Unknowingly, Ling Chuan's face was already covered in tears. His black eyes were fixed on her. He should have realized it earlier.

It was as if he had been born to exist for her. Only when she was by his side would he have this familiar feeling, like a fish in water.

He vaguely remembered how, after what happened to his big brother and second brother, the burden of the family had been placed on him. He had been only 13 or 14 years old back then.

Annoyed, he ran away from home in a fit of anger. He couldn't be bothered to deal with all the dirty and complicated things.

He didn't know how he had found her village.
