Jing Tian and Gao Da were stunned.
Jing Tian carefully held my hand and looked at the wound on my wrist. “Go and find Mr. Li!”
Gao Da asked his men to carefully put the small snake into the bag, and he followed us with Tong Yan in his arms.
When we passed the main house, the members of the Jing family walked out of the house noisily.
I quickly wrapped my arms around Jing Tian’s neck and said in a low voice, “Quickly hug me!”
Jing Tian instinctively hugged me. I closed my eyes and leaned my head against Jing Tian’s chest, my left hand hanging outside.
It was a pity that there were only two distinct teeth marks on my wrist. They weren’t red, swollen, or black. However, I didn’t have time to fake it. Someone had already surrounded me.
“What’s wrong?” Jing Yan’s loud voice was so noisy. I really wanted to throw her out. However, such an occasion required someone like her.
“Oh! She’s poisoned! Nanxing is poisoned!” Why did Jing Yan’s voice sound so excited, elated, and gloating?
I endured it!
I’ll remember this matter. Jing Yan, let’s wait and see! I gritted my teeth secretly.
Everyone in the Jing family, regardless of whether I had offended them or not, surrounded me and cried out in surprise. I didn’t even need to open my eyes to feel their joy!
This wasn’t a cry of surprise but a cheer!
Jing Tian’s face should have turned black by now.
He didn’t say a word. He carried me in his arms and strode toward Mr. Li’s residence. I opened my eyes a little bit and looked over. That group of people was whispering to each other. They would be going around telling people that I was dead soon.
That was good!
I might as well pretend to be dead and let everyone be happy.
Gao Da arrived before us. After all, Tong Yan was really poisoned, and I was just pretending.
Jing Tian placed me on the chair. “Alright, we’re here.”
I opened my eyes and looked toward the door.
“Everyone will probably rush over to watch the show later.” Jing Tian was a little annoyed.
I hurriedly went to see Tong Yan. “Master, can you give Tong Yan my blood? I was bitten too. But I’m fine!” I stretched out my hand to show Mr. Li.
Mr. Li examined Tong Yan’s wound and checked her pulse. In a low voice, he said, “I can’t blindly use your blood now. She might be poisoned by you too.”
I was at a loss for words. “Then, then what should we do?”
My blood isn’t stable.
Mr. Li took a small bottle from the small cabinet. He took a pill and placed it in Tong Yan’s mouth. “The problem isn’t too big. The snake is poisonous, but Tong Yan has been used to test medicine since she was young. She’ll be fine.”
He fed Tong Yan some water and checked her pulse. “It’s alright. She’ll wake up in a while. We’ll carefully examine her pulse and apply for the medicine.”
“Bring that snake over to me to take a look!” Mr. Li instructed Gao Da.
Gao Da carefully handed over the bag that contained the snake.
“Is it dead?” Mr. Li gently pinched the small snake’s neck and shook it.
The small snake’s red body swayed weakly.
“It became like this after biting me.” I looked at the small snake curiously. It was quite pretty. It probably didn’t expect to encounter something even more poisonous than itself.
Mr. Li shook it again. “It’s really unlucky. It’s probably his first time out on a mission, and he met this unlucky child, Nanxing!”
I didn’t mind this new name.
“Master, can this little snake live? Can you feed it some of my blood?” I thought this little snake was quite cute.
Mr. Li said disdainfully, “It’s just a snake. Do you still want to waste your blood? Can you stop being so kind-hearted? Don’t underestimate this snake. If it really bit Old Madam Jing, we would really have a tragedy on our hands.”
Jing Tian and I couldn’t help but change our expressions.
“Gao Da, help me find out who brought the snake in. I must find this person!” Jing Tian ordered in a low voice.
“Yes! I’ll bring someone to investigate immediately.” When Gao Da turned around, he didn’t forget to take a glance at the unconscious Tong Yan.
I picked up the small snake and looked at it carefully. “Who is so vicious? You raise worms for research purposes. The owner of this snake is obviously counting on it to harm others!”
