Chapter 159 Do I need you to call the police?
Since it was a woman who brought the cobra here, the cobra must have seen what a woman looks like.
Woo
"Fragrant humans are smart."
"It was the bad woman who lived in the house who caught the snake. She didn't give it food, but she often came to the backyard to check on the snake. I guess she was afraid the snake would run away and stop biting her."
"The snake didn't eat the delicious food the bad woman fed it, and the money the bad woman gave to the snake catcher was not given to the snake. The snake can also ignore its credibility, after all, it didn't get any benefits."
Lin Ting couldn't help but be amused by the cobra.
"What else did that bad woman do besides coming to the backyard to see you every day?" Lin Ting continued to ask.
The cobra had a pair of vertical pupils, and its body tentatively coiled around Lin Ting's wrist, with its head just drooping on the back of Lin Ting's hand for support.
'Nothing.'
Woo
'The snake remembered.'
"The bad woman even called and cursed the thing in the square, saying that he had spent so much money to have them kill a man, and that they were so stupid that they took the money and not only did they not kill him, but they also let him escape alive, forcing her to spend money again to find a way to kill him."
"The bad woman was so fierce and vicious at that time, her eyes could spit fire."
"The evil woman also said that if that man didn't die, the child in her belly would have no way to inherit any property, so she had to kill him before anyone found out."
Through the voice of the cobra, Lin Ting couldn't help but recall the scene when she first met Xie Yang. At that time, Xie Yang had a sudden car accident and rolled down the winding mountain road. He was lucky because the car was stuck in the gap and he was able to climb out of the car without falling to his death.
If I had been unlucky, I would have died on the winding mountain road.
Xie Yang noticed that Lin Ting looked at him with a strange look in her eyes. He asked suspiciously, "Miss Lin, did Cobra say something?"
"Is your stepmother pregnant?" Lin Ting asked doubtfully.
Xie Yang shook his head. "No, I've never heard her mention it. Given her outspoken personality when she first climbed into my dad's bed, if she were pregnant, she would definitely announce it immediately and wouldn't keep it secret like this."
"What if you want to clear yourself of suspicion?"
Lin Ting told Xie Yang everything he heard from Cobra.
Upon hearing this, Xie Yang's face instantly turned cold. Even through his gold-rimmed glasses, one could see the gloomy expression hidden behind the lenses. His aura instantly dropped to freezing point, as chilly as a winter day.
Lin Ting asked tentatively, "Should I help you call the police?"
This was intentional murder after all.
After Xie Yang hesitated, he shook his head at Lin Ting, "My stepmother is a smart person, and she does things perfectly. Otherwise, how could she have climbed into my father's bed just because she was my father's secretary? Since she dared to do this, she might have already disposed of the evidence."
"She hired someone to do the incident on the winding mountain road. This time, she can argue that the snake crawled in on its own. Without solid evidence, calling the police will be useless. Besides, she's pregnant. Even if something happens, the old man might be able to save her."
They had to deal with the woman and at the same time, like a cobra, keep hitting the target.
Lin Tingji comes from a wealthy family, so she understands some things.
"I have an idea." A cunning light flashed in Lin Ting's eyes.
Xie Yang looked over with bright eyes. Lin Ting whispered a few words in Xie Yang's ear, and Xie Yang's eyes lit up instantly.
"Miss Lin, this is a good idea. Let's do as Miss Lin says."
At that time, the housekeeper cut a plate of pork and beef and brought it over. "Miss Lin, these meats were bought this morning. They are very fresh. I will tell you where to put them."
When Butler Li saw that the cobra was completely wrapped around Lin Ting's wrist, he didn't dare to get close at all. He stopped ten steps away from Lin Ting and his voice began to tremble.
"Just leave it over there. I'll get it myself." Lin Ting could already tell that Butler Li didn't dare to go forward. Why bother making things difficult for an old man?
After hearing Lin Ting's words, Butler Li put the meat where it was and ran away.
Lin Ting shook her head helplessly, and came to the place where Butler Li placed the raw meat with the cobra wrapped around her wrist. Lin Ting put her hand down, and the cobra automatically fell off her wrist, ran towards the place where the raw meat was, and stuffed several pieces of cut meat into it in one bite.
The snake swallowed the meat without chewing it. After a while, it had eaten all the meat and its whole body looked a lot fatter.
Lin Ting stepped forward and tapped the wings on the cobra's body. "You ate my food, can you do me a favor?"
"Xiangxiang, human, you say that snakes are very trustworthy. As long as you ask for it, the snake will definitely help you do it."
Although this villa belongs to the Xie family, Xie Yang's stepmother has been married here for some time and spends all day at home taking care of her husband and children. Who knows whether the servants in the villa have been bribed by Xie Yang's stepmother.
To avoid being overheard, Lin Ting lowered his voice deliberately when talking to Cobra, fearing that outsiders would hear them.
After dealing with these things, Lin Ting and Xie Yang returned to the villa.
When she saw the two men coming back, a hint of surprise and sinisterness flashed across Mrs. Xie's eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
She strode forward and said with a smile, "How are the two Capybaras? Ever since they fell ill, Xie Yang has been worried about them day and night. He even sought help from many veterinarians, but in the end, there was no improvement."
Lin Ting smiled gently, "It's nothing serious, just a little bit depressed. I think it's because I haven't seen Mr. Xie in the past few days. I just need to rest for a few days and Mr. Xie will spend more time with me. Besides, these two little guys are probably a little frightened when they see so many strangers."
"Really? I was thinking of going over to help a few days ago, but I didn't expect these two little guys to be so afraid of strangers."
When she said this, Mrs. Xie felt guilty for a moment, but she quickly covered it up.
She smiled and said, "Butler Li has washed the cherries that were flown in from abroad. Miss Lin, come over and try them."
Lin Ting looked at Madam Xie's back, his eyes gradually darkening. This Madam Xie was indeed very cautious as Xie Yang said.
Lin Ting followed Mrs. Xie to the living room. Mrs. Xie pushed the washed cherries in front of Lin Ting and said, "Miss Lin, try it."
"Thank you, ma'am." Lin Ting stuffed a cherry into the cart. Madam Xie was facing away from the living room because she was taking care of Lin Ting.
Just at this moment, the servant who came out to deliver the fruit was frightened by something and screamed. The fruit plate in his hand accidentally fell to the ground, making a crisp sound.
After hearing the voice, Mrs. Xie looked over with impatience, "The guests are still here. If you can't even do such a small thing, just don't do it..."
