Chapter 33 Fortunately, "I want to sleep with you..."

Song Keling didn't notice her abnormality, frowned and went to find a thermometer.

The result was 30 degrees.

Song Keling: “……?”

Song Keling thought the electronic thermometer was broken, so she measured her own temperature and the reading showed 36.7 degrees, which was normal.

The little girl was tested again and it was still 30 degrees.

Song Keling asked the pale little girl, "Are you feeling unwell?"

Qianqian came back to her senses and suddenly said hesitantly, "I, I'm not your sister..."

Song Keling was stunned for a moment, thinking she finally believed him and was ready to have a heart-to-heart talk with him. So she put down the thermometer, looked at him, and asked patiently, "What's your name?"

Qianqian continued to explain in a low voice: "I'm not a snake demon..."

Song Keling: "Of course you're not. Little sister, what's your name? Where do you live? What school do you go to? Do you remember your parents' phone numbers?"

Qianqian couldn't listen at all. She lowered her head and twisted her fingers, feeling nervous and awkward.

Her kneeling legs twisted together, as if they were about to form a tail and wrap her head around it. She murmured softly, "I, I..."

The voice was so soft that Song Keling had to look at her to make out what she was saying.

Qianqian suddenly looked up at her timidly, "Will you catch me?"

"Of course I won't arrest you."

"Don't call for help..."

"Okay, I won't call anyone."

Qianqian was sure she hadn't lied to her, and she felt relieved and instantly happy. "Then can I go to bed?"

Song Keling was stunned, obviously unable to keep up with her jumping thoughts, but when she saw the little girl's previous nervousness and listlessness swept away, her eyes brightened up, and an indescribable sense of familiarity arose in her heart.

The feeling was like it was coming out from between the bones, and it couldn't be stopped.

But when you think about it carefully, it's very confusing and you have no clue.

"Of course." Song Keling: "But your temperature is not right now. I need to find a doctor to check you out."

Qianqian didn't look at her, she got off the sofa and walked towards the bedroom, her actions were consistent with her words, she did what she wanted, "I'm going to sleep..."

Song Keling: “…”

It was this inexplicable sense of déjà vu again. She felt helpless, but also subconsciously indulged herself.

However, a body temperature of 30 degrees is a very serious condition.

Although the child did not show any serious symptoms of this abnormal body temperature, to be on the safe side, Song Keling contacted the family doctor and asked him to come over overnight.

Qianqian returned to the bedroom, looked at the bed and then at the breeding box.

Fortunately, I couldn't turn back into a snake, so I decisively climbed onto the soft, warm and fragrant bed and crawled into the quilt.

She had to hide.

Can't be caught by the bad guys outside.

Song Keling entered the bedroom and saw her covered with the quilt. She went over to help her pull it open a little, "Don't sleep like this, you'll be unable to breathe."

The room was lit with a gentle, non-glaring light.

Qianqian huddled in the quilt, her cheeks pale, a pair of bright, round eyes looking at her, her pronunciation no longer so imprecise, "Junior sister, you sleep with me."

Song Keling touched her forehead, which was still cold, but she didn't refuse. She went out to get her textbooks and notes, and sat on the bed to read.

After Song Keling got into bed, Qianqian reached out and hugged her.

Song Keling glanced at the little girl and said nothing. Maybe she was too pitiful, or maybe people were instinctively more tolerant of "things" that were well-behaved, cute, and non-threatening.

Song Keling continued reading.

Until the doorbell rang.

Qianqian, who was about to fall asleep, suddenly jumped up and said in panic, "They're here to catch me! Fahai is here to catch me!"

"..." Song Keling: "I'm not here to arrest you, I'm here to treat you."

The doctor took out a mercury thermometer and asked Qianqian to hold it under her armpit.

Qianqian doesn’t know how.

Song Keling helped her. Qianqian held the cold thermometer and didn't dare to move. She looked a little weak and pitiful.

The temperature was 36.7 degrees Celsius, which is normal.

The doctor asked if I felt any discomfort anywhere.

Qianqian half hid behind Song Keling and shook her head no matter what was asked.

Song Keling was puzzled as to how this could be normal, but after hearing the doctor's questions and remembering the child coughing a few times before going to sleep, she said, "Maybe he has a cold and has a slight cough."

So the doctor gave Qianqian a simple examination.

The situation is not serious.

Qianqian opened her mouth and had the stethoscope pressed on her chest. She was nervous and stiffly holding Song Keling's hand the whole time. She was afraid and worried that she would be taken away the next moment.

The doctor left some medicine and told Song Keling to contact her anytime if she had any questions.

Song Keling got up to see her off. When she came back, she used an electronic thermometer to take the little girl's temperature. She looked at it in confusion and found that it was indeed 36.7 degrees, which was normal.

So were the thirty degrees before that an illusion?

Song Keling didn't understand, so she gave Qianqian the medicine first.

Qianqian took the pill, looked at it for a few seconds, put it in her mouth and chewed it twice. Then her little face wrinkled up, and it was so bitter that she quickly stuck out her tongue and spat.

Song Keling was still holding the cup of water in her hand and had no time to pass it on, so she subconsciously reached out to take it.

The white pills were bitten into pieces, some of which were spit into her hands and some onto the quilt.

Before Song Keling could be shocked by the little girl's behavior, Qianqian was already crying out in pain with her tongue shaking.

Song Keling came back to her senses and quickly handed her the water, saying, "Drink some water. You can't bite the medicine, you have to swallow it with water."

How come you don’t even know about this?

Qianqian gulped down a lot of water before she could suppress the bitter taste. Then she looked at the white pills and refused to take them no matter what. She covered her mouth tightly and shook her head repeatedly.

Song Keling had no choice but to turn around and make a cup of cold medicine and tell her it was sweet.

Qianqian took the cup with both hands doubtfully, looked down at the orange-yellow liquid, and licked it cautiously with her tongue. Although the taste was a bit strange, it was not unpalatable.

Only then did he manage to hold it in his hand and drink it slowly bit by bit.

Song Keling looked at this strange scene, and a sense of incongruity lingered in her heart.

But it was already late.

Song Keling gave up her bedroom for her to sleep in and went to the guest room next door.

After tidying up the bed, Song Keling realized something and looked back. She saw the little girl standing quietly at the door without making any sound.

Song Keling was startled and asked, "What's wrong?"

Qianqian asked: "Aren't you going to sleep?"

"I'll go to bed soon." Song Keling said, "Just sleep in the bedroom."

Qianqian tried hard to understand. Her right hand, covered with five band-aids, clung to the door frame and looked at her nervously and hesitantly, "I want to sleep with you..."

Song Keling looked at her big watery eyes, then moved her gaze downwards to see her bare feet walking on the floor.

In fact, the child's dress also looked torn and dirty.

But Song Keling had lost her temper since she climbed into bed with him without her consent.

Who can lose his temper with a child?

He is still a cute child with an IQ disability and scars on his body.

Song Keling finally agreed: "Okay."

Qianqian only felt at ease when she slept next to Song Keling. She hugged Song Keling's arm and curled up into a ball out of habit.

In Song Keling's eyes, this sleeping posture is just a sign of insecurity.

I didn't go out to see Qianqian tonight.

Song Keling turned off the desk lamp, feeling a little depressed, but inexplicably not as irritable as she had been in the previous two days.

Qianqian fell asleep quickly.

It was also the first time she knew that humans dream after falling asleep.

She dreamed that she turned into a huge white snake, and her junior sister brought Fahai to catch her. A golden jar flew above her head and golden light enveloped her. She was very scared, wronged and sad, and cried and shouted, "Junior sister, you are lying."

Song Keling woke up to the sound of faint sobs. She turned on the light and saw a child beside her with his eyes closed, shivering and sobbing, mumbling words like "liar" and "bad guy".

It was a nightmare.

Song Keling sighed inwardly, and a surge of pity from somewhere prompted her to move sideways to hold the crying child in her arms, patting his back gently with clumsy movements to comfort him.

I also forgot how to fall asleep.

When she woke up, Song Keling found herself sleeping alone in bed. She sat up, smoothed her hair, and thought that what happened last night was a dream because she was too tired and stressed these days.

At this time, there was a tinkling sound outside.

Song Keling was stunned and went out to see immediately.

Qianqian is in the kitchen.

The human perspective and the snake perspective are completely different. She felt around in the kitchen pots and pans, but for some reason, she couldn't find anything edible.

Finally, she rustled around and picked up a sandwich that smelled delicious but was wrapped in plastic.

Seeing that she wanted to eat without even removing the packaging, Song Keling walked over and said, "You need to tear off the outer plastic bag first."

Qianqian's round eyes looked at her instantly. She was also very good at ordering people around, so she immediately handed her the sandwich.

Song Keling took it and unpacked it.

Qianqian watched and learned seriously.

Song Keling opened it and handed it to her, "Are you hungry? I'll go get breakfast."

"I want to go with you!"

Song Keling didn't refuse, "Okay."

Soon, Qianqian learned another way to survive in human society, which is to buy things.

She pointed at the phone in Song Keling's hand and said, "Junior sister, give me one of these."

Song Keling: “…”

Song Keling: "What are you going to do with it?"

"Buy food."

Song Keling asked: "What do you want to buy?" Food.

"Food."

Song Keling checked the time. Since she had no classes in the morning and still had time, she took the child to a nearby supermarket and reminded him, "Pick out whatever food you want to buy. I have to go to school in the morning, so you can watch TV and eat snacks at home. And don't leave the house unless the police come knocking on the door. Got it?"

Qianqian looked at the dazzling array of snacks, not knowing which one to buy. She subconsciously stuck out her tongue to "sniff", but didn't get anything.

I heard Song Keling say all this.

She looked over, a little annoyed, and said, "Speak slower, it's hard to understand."

Song Keling pursed her lips, but was surprisingly patient, slowing down her speech and repeating it sentence by sentence.

Qianqian interrupted halfway through and asked, "What is school?"

Song Keling: "Go to class. Don't you have to go to class with my current studies?"

Qianqian shook her head. She was a snake, so why should she go to class? She just needed to eat and drink.

Seeing this, Song Keling sighed for some reason, then said, "It doesn't matter. Just wait at home for me to come back. The police will contact me when they find your parents, and I'll be back then."

Qianqian said: "I don't have a father or a mother."

Song Keling was stunned. "Are you an orphan?"

Qianqian was curious: "What is an orphan?"

Song Keling: “…”

So fortunately, she doesn't have to have children, raise children, or teach children in the future.
