Chapter 80 Chapter 17 This is the first time the little snake has shed its skin. ...
Should that day be the fifth day after the transformation period ended, or was it the sixth day?
I really can't remember clearly.
In order to spend more time with his unstable little snake, Yan Hao had willfully postponed all the work he could.
If it were any other time, it would be fine, but that was the time when the old man had just passed away, he had just taken over, and people from all sides were still waiting and watching.
There are already many complicated tasks within the group, and he rarely shows up. Even when he does, he seems a little absent-minded.
Because of his "useless" performance, the rumors outside seemed to have legs and became more and more violent day by day.
Some of the group's senior management had already begun scouting for the next company. Fortunately, Yan Hao returned in time. However, in order to deal with the long-overdue matters, Yan Hao, upon returning to work, was naturally busy, working day and night.
indeed…
It is true that Sheng Qing has been somewhat neglected.
One day, after working continuously for nearly thirty hours at a high intensity, Yan Hao finished his last job of the day while on an IV drip. He planned to lie down in the rest room inside the office to rest for a while before continuing to work.
Perhaps because he was too tired physically and mentally, or perhaps for some other reason, he slept very uneasily and had several incoherent dreams in a row.
First, he dreamed of the day when Shengqing was still in an unstable period and he took him to the company.
It was a hot day, and the thin little snake curled up in his pocket very obediently, coiled up coolly, and felt great to touch.
At that time, he was teasing him gently with his fingers, wanting him to bite him. It would be even better if he could leave two teeth marks the size of rice grains on his hands.
Unfortunately, Shengqing refused to bite.
It just curled up obediently in the pocket, biting its tail out of boredom. Even if it crawled out, it only wandered slowly on Yan Hao's body and did not set foot in other unfamiliar areas.
It would be nice if it stayed like this.
Before the morning had passed, the little snake had grown much bigger without him noticing. In order to avoid being discovered, he had to cover the little snake secretly, carry it into the underground parking lot, and drive away.
He dreamed of a field again. It was a strange place he had never seen before. The blue sky and white clouds were so low that they seemed as if they could be touched with hands. The endless green grassland undulated along the terrain. There were tiny wild flowers among the grass leaves. When the wind blew, it raised continuous green waves.
However, in this vast open space, a huge python beyond his previous knowledge was leisurely coiled and resting. Even the tip of its tail casually placed on the grass was a head taller than Yan Hao himself.
It was truly a giant python that covered the sky and the sun. The snow-white scales covering its body had a lustrous luster like mother-of-pearl, reflecting a flowing beautiful rainbow in the sunlight.
Yan Hao should have been afraid, but when he raised his head and looked into those snake eyes, he suddenly wasn't afraid anymore.
He wondered how this giant python that could kill him at any time could be so beautiful. He took the initiative to move forward, hugged the tip of the silver-white python's tail with his arms as much as possible, and kissed it again and again.
Then he dreamed of a deeply intimate relationship with Shengqing in human form. While the location was slightly different than he'd imagined, those were insignificant details. In his dream, he was incredibly happy. Afterward, he gently stroked the boy's fair back, breathing softly, and offered to see what he looked like in snake form.
Shengqing hesitated for a moment and showed it to him.
I have to say that the lower part of a human being is different from the lower part of a snake-man. Yan Hao gently touched the two "little maces" covered with acne with his fingers. He thought he would be pricked like touching the thorns of a cactus, but... they seemed a little soft?
Shengqing's breathing became noticeably disordered, and his snow-white cheeks flushed bright red. But he didn't move, simply staring at the person without blinking.
"It's so weird." He asked Yan Hao puzzledly like a confused child, "Why have I become so weird..."
"What's strange about that?"
"I'm starting to get that hot, sticky smell too..." The boy's face was filled with obvious confusion, as if he didn't know why he was feeling this way. "It's clearly not spring now, why..."
He was so confused and puzzled. Yan Hao should have helped him to clear up his confusion, but Yan Hao in the dream seemed to be bewitched by something and leaned forward to kiss him on the lips.
Shengqing's lips were icy cold, soft and refreshing like the mountains, which was refreshing.
Then he dreamed that he fell asleep with Shengqing in his arms. When he woke up, he saw a slender figure sitting beside the bed. He said, "You woke up so early."
Shengqing had his back to him, so his expression could not be seen clearly, and his voice was also blurry, as if it came from another world.
He said: "Yan Hao..."
He said, "I'm leaving you."
What? !
Yan Hao exclaimed in his heart, "No!"
The next moment, Yan Hao jolted awake. He instinctively groped for the bedside, but found nothing. He stared at the ceiling of the living room, his mind completely awakening. It had all been a dream.
Fortunately, fortunately it was just a dream.
But inevitably, after waking up, Yan Hao felt an inexplicable panic in his heart, as if he had lost something important, and his body's instincts were constantly clamoring at him to find it back quickly.
He casually took his mobile phone from the bedside table and checked the cloud surveillance as usual, wanting to see what the little snake at home was doing at the moment.
It should be the same as usual, right?
Shengqing currently prefers two forms. In snake form, he likes to hang on trees, soak in water, and sleep in his old clothes.
In human form, he likes to take walks in the garden and trim the branches of the flowers in the pots with a pair of gardening shears. He will circle the flower pots from time to time to ensure that every flower can get some sunlight.
Oh, by the way, he has recently become fond of playing games. I saw him playing a Happy Candy Crush game with the mobile phone given by Yan Hao. He also downloaded other games such as organizing shelves and finding things.
Xiaoshe's typing is now much more accurate than before. From time to time, he would send some cute emoticons, paragraphs of text and share his game achievements.
When thinking of these tiny fragments, Yan Hao felt extremely happy for no reason, but for some reason, the panic that followed him like a shadow still did not dissipate.
Just as he clicked on the monitoring application and was about to enter the picture, the screen showed that it was loading and the phone rang suddenly.
The caller was the housekeeper in the villa.
Li Qichang has always been cautious in his work and rarely calls him so rashly unless it is really an emergency.
"Hello?"
The panic in my heart became more and more obvious.
"gentlemen…"
Li Qichang's voice was not as steady as usual, and it had a rare strangeness to it.
"The young master...suddenly disappeared!"
The phone slipped quietly.
In an instant, Yan Hao felt dizzy and everything around him seemed to become blurry. Even the voice of the housekeeper in the receiver became erratic.
"The young master was here last night. He asked me if I would be back that night. I said I might not, and he said okay..."
"I didn't eat the breakfast that was delivered this morning. I went to ask if it was not to my liking, but I found the door of the room half open, and inside was only a long piece of shed snake skin..."
The butler's voice became lower and lower, and finally he asked tentatively: "Sir, would you like to come back and take a look?"
“…I’ll be back right away.”
Half an hour later, Yan Hao stood at the door again and looked at the snake skin that had just been shed in the quilt. It was as thin as a cicada's wing, and he could almost clearly see the texture of each scale, even the eyes...
This is the first time the little snake has shed its skin.
He carefully picked up the snake skin and kept it as if it were a treasure. Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed Butler Li at the door.
The middle-aged man was still wearing the same uniform, his hair combed meticulously. He looked at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose, and seemed to think that there was nothing wrong with the appearance of a snake skin in the house where the young master lived.
"Sir, I've already asked people to search everywhere else in the villa. The only thing left is..."
"I know."
In the remaining time, Yan Hao searched the small courtyard where Shengqing lived inside and out, but still found nothing.
He even crawled on the floor and carefully checked every tiny gap in the room, such as under the bed and in the secret compartments of the closet...
The little snake had a penchant for hiding in dark, narrow places. Once, when he lured it out from under the bed, it was covered in dust. Yan Hao had also discovered the villa's servants' laziness in cleaning, and from then on, the place under the bed was quiet.
But no…
Yan Hao searched for the surveillance footage again. After flipping through seven or eight surveillance videos, he finally saw Sheng Qing, who had turned into a human form, in an inconspicuous corner.
The time showed that it was around four in the morning. At this time, most of the servants in the villa had fallen asleep. Sheng Qing suddenly appeared in a corner of the screen.
He was wearing the clothes that they had bought at a shopping mall when they went to the zoo a few days ago.
A white T-shirt paired with a haze blue cotton and linen shirt, a pair of light-colored cropped casual pants, and a pair of sneakers. He looks like the young high school students you can see everywhere on the street.
To be honest, the material and style of the clothes are much worse than the clothes Yan Hao specially asked a designer to customize for him, but it was indeed Xiaoshe's own choice.
The familiar figure made his heart rise. He watched Shengqing standing in the surveillance video for a full ten minutes. During that time, he took out his mobile phone and pressed something. He then watched him walk out of the gate step by step until he completely disappeared from the screen.
“………”
Knowing that he took the cell phone, which was originally prepared by Yan Hao, it would be much easier to find him.
When sending a message to his assistant, Yan Hao found a layer of cold sweat on his back and his palms were shaking slightly uncontrollably.
"The young master might just be feeling bored staying in the house and wants to go out for some fresh air." The housekeeper looked reminiscent. "Before, the young master asked me a lot about how ordinary people outside live and how they support themselves..."
Yan Hao was lost in his own emotions, filled with regret and self-blame. He thought it was all because he had been too busy recently and neglected Xiao Snake, so he went out alone...
The middle-aged man wanted to say something else, but finally swallowed it back hesitantly.
In the suffocating silence, every minute and every second seemed to stretch endlessly, until the ringing of a phone broke the frozen atmosphere.
"explain."
"Found it."
