Chapter 156: Slippery Tongue



"Little white snake, since I fed you so many precious medicinal herbs, tonight is the time for you to repay me. From tonight on, you will be guarding outside. If a stranger comes into the house, you will bite him. Do you understand?"

Not caring whether it could understand or not, she spoke to it as if it were a person.

Now there is no one at home who can help, the only one I can rely on is this snake.

Now she really puts all her family's hopes on this little white snake.

After saying this, she took out a small bottle without hesitation and poured out five pills from the bottle and placed them in front of the little white snake.

The little white snake first licked the pills gently with its tongue to taste them. Probably after confirming that these pills were what it liked to eat, the next second, all five pills were instantly rolled into the snake's mouth by its tongue.

After a full meal, the little white snake squirmed its body and crawled out.

Looking at its action, Lin Qingqing slowly revealed a relieved smile on her lips.

It seems that the little white snake understood what she just said, and now it is going outside to help her guard the house.

With the little white snake guarding the house, Lin Qingqing slept well that night.

When she woke up the next day and saw her family sitting together peacefully for dinner, she suddenly started to wonder if she had been too sensitive about what had happened before.

Just like this, she spent a few days quietly. Those people did not come to the door, and there was no other movement. Soon, Lin Qingqing was forgotten by those people and continued to live her own life.

The family still calls Xiao Wen, who is thousands of miles away, every night.

Tonight, the couple finally had a chance to have a real chat.

Xiao Wen on the other end of the phone had a gentle voice and even softer eyes as he spoke to his wife on the phone, "Wife, I think about you every night. I miss you so much that I can't sleep. How about you? Do you miss me?"

Lin Qingqing's cheeks felt a little hot. This man had become more and more adept at saying sweet words during his trip. Every time she heard him say that he missed her, her heart would beat wildly, as if she had just started dating him and he had confessed his love to her.

"Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?" She asked with a slight smile on her lips, holding the receiver.

Soon, Xiao Wen's charming laughter came from the other end of the phone. "I want to hear the truth, and I want to hear lies too. As long as it's what you say, I'm willing to listen."

Lin Qingqing took a deep breath and both her cheeks felt hot as if they were on fire.

"Slippery tongue, Xiao Wen, let me ask you, are you on a business trip over there, or are you learning how to say sweet words? I find that after you went out this time, your mouth has become more and more adept at saying sweet words."

Xiao Wen pursed his lips and smiled, looked around, clenched the receiver in his hand, and asked softly, "Do you like me saying this?"

Lin Qingqing giggled twice, then quickly came to her senses, patted her cheeks lightly, sat up straight, and answered seriously, "It's okay."

Xiao Wen's lips curled up into a charming smile.

At this moment, a stealthy figure came up behind him. When he noticed it, the owner of the figure had already spoken.

"Brother Wen, you are on the phone again." Miao Xinru said with a smile while standing behind him.

Just then her voice floated into the other side of the phone.

When Lin Qingqing on the other end of the phone heard the voice, her brows immediately frowned slightly.

The owner of this voice was not unfamiliar to her at all.

At this moment, Xiao Wen glared coldly at Miao Xinru who was standing behind him.

Don't think he doesn't know what evil plans this woman has.

"Qingqing, I will explain this matter to you later. Let me deal with this disgusting thing first. Wait for my explanation, and don't let your mind wander. Do you hear me?" He quickly told his wife on the other end of the phone.

"Okay, I get it. You'd better solve it properly. Don't give too much face to some people. The more polite you are to her, the more she will take advantage of you. Do you hear me?" Lin Qingqing reminded him.

Xiao Wen pursed his lips and smiled softly, "I understand, wife, don't worry, I won't be too polite to those who have ulterior motives."

The couple talked sweet words for a minute as if no one was around, and then they hung up the phone reluctantly.

As soon as he hung up the phone, Xiao Wen looked at Miao Xinru, who was still standing there, with disgust in his eyes.

"What evil ideas are you up to? Don't think that doing this will destroy the relationship between me and Qingqing. The relationship between her and me cannot be sown by a few words from someone like you. Forget this idea."

Miao Xinru pinched her palms hard, and even though her palms were sticky, she didn't care.

"What's wrong? Did I destroy the relationship between you two by doing this? That's just right, it's exactly what I want. What I, Miao Xinru, can't get, Lin Qingqing can't get either. Why is Lin Qingqing so happy? I can't get love, so I want to let her taste my pain."

Xiao Wen looked at her almost crazy appearance and frowned slightly. This woman was like a lunatic now.

"Madman, I'm warning you, if you dare to hurt even a hair on my family, I won't forgive you." After saying this, without even looking at her, he turned around and left without any hesitation.

Seeing him leave like this, Miao Xinru turned around with a look of resentment on her face and shouted at his back, "Xiao Wen, just wait for me. I will never let you and your wife continue to love each other forever. The happiness that I can't get, you and your wife can't get either."

That night, Lin Qingqing found herself a little insomniac.

When she woke up the next day, she had dark circles under her eyes.

"Sister-in-law, how long did you talk on the phone with my brother last night? Why do you have such dark circles under your eyes?" As soon as she sat down, Xiao Qing, who was sitting opposite her, immediately shouted in surprise.

When Lin Qingqing heard his words, she immediately touched her eye sockets which were a little painful.

After the phone call with Xiao Wen last night, she couldn't sleep until two in the morning.

After all, she only slept for three hours last night, it would be strange if she didn't have dark circles under her eyes.

"I couldn't sleep last night." She explained casually after taking a bite of breakfast.

After the family had breakfast, the three little ones were sent to school by Grandpa Xiao.

As soon as the three children and one old man left, there was a loud noise at the gate of the Xiao family.

"Help, help, doctor, come out and save us." A woman holding a swaddled baby was crying for help at the gate of the Xiao family's house.
