Chapter 24 On Track: I understand and accept it.
Seeing that King Ashu came back alone, Xiaobai happily cancelled his invisibility.
It was just about to report what it had done today.
Then Ah Shu looked at me with a look of resentment.
Xiaobai shook his ears in fear, realizing that now was not the right time.
It really didn't want to stop stringing beads, so it had to bite the bullet and go around the snake's tail to get to the table.
With a stiff smile on his face, he quickly picked up the materials and rushed into the small room without looking back.
The troublesome guy disappeared, and now there were only the two of them in the room.
Ah Shu's heart was like a noisy drum, sometimes hitting the drum head hard, the drum sound was heavy, and sometimes hitting the drum edge, light and joyful.
The size of the drumbeat all depends on the fresh snow.
The feeling of being stared at by Ashu came back again, and Xinxue couldn't help feeling hot all over.
She was excited, but she didn't know what she was excited about.
After a while, he timidly said, "You can become a human now. No wonder there were so many red and black lines on your body that day."
"Well, I was going to send you off that day, but I suddenly started shedding my skin and didn't make it in time."
Ah Shu did not exaggerate his pain, but just gently turned the page.
She carefully played with the little human's soft fingers, as if they were the most precious and fun thing in the world.
But even if she didn't say it, Xinxue felt the feeling of being covered in bruises when she treated her earlier.
Her nose felt sore, and she said angrily, "I thought you were so heartless that you didn't even want to come and see me off when we'd never see each other again, and didn't want to see me one last time."
As she spoke, Xinxue deliberately pulled her hand back to stop her from touching him any further.
A Shu was angry and anxious, and hurriedly grabbed her hand back.
The snake's tongue licked it wantonly, leaving its own scent.
She looked down at Xinxue, as if she wanted to swallow her whole. "How is that possible? Why do you think of me like that?"
It would have been fine if she hadn't mentioned it, but as soon as she did, Xinxue's suppressed emotions could no longer be controlled.
Her expression became sad and she looked at Ah Shu sadly.
The separation and worries of the past few days have mostly dissipated.
She felt as if she had returned to the day when Ah Shu treated her roughly and ravaged her like a rag doll.
She hated herself.
So helpless.
And so weak.
Xinxue was determined to leave because she didn't want to continue experiencing that feeling.
She didn't expect the snake to catch up with her.
I don’t know if it’s because Ashu’s dashing human form is so impressive, but her dangerousness is also blinding.
Xinxue was no longer afraid of angering her, and she covered her face and sobbed softly twice.
The belated collapse suddenly burst out like a hemorrhage.
"You've been so rude to me those past few days! Ever since you found out I'm not pregnant with your child, you've been treating me so badly!"
She was like an angry beast, resisting with her whole body, trying to break free from the giant snake's entanglement.
"I..." Ah Shu was speechless after what she said.
She opened her mouth, wanting to explain, but she didn't know what to say or where to start.
But she knew that if she let Xinxue go and let her escape this time, everything would develop in the direction she least wanted.
A Shu let Xinxue cry and make a fuss, and just hugged her tightly with his arms and wrapped his snake tail around her.
She kept coaxing him, "Calm down, calm down, don't be sad for now..."
Xinxue needed an outlet to vent, so she gave her that outlet.
Fortunately, after crying for a while, Xinxue stopped, hugged Ashu awkwardly, and stared blankly at the patterns on the floor.
Unlike the last time when she cried in despair alone, this time Ah Shu did not leave or abandon her, and still stayed by her side.
This brought back her sense of security.
"Xue, don't be sad anymore." Ah Shu rubbed his cheek against the new snow, and put her bright tears on his own face.
Xinxue sniffed and spoke in a muffled voice, "I'm human, I can't give birth to a snake cub for you... That's why you made a mistake from the beginning. You shouldn't have picked me up and brought me back to the gym..."
She didn't dare look at Ah Shu while she spoke, her dark eyes still staring at the floor, as if the pattern contained many mysteries of the world.
"Ah! Are you angry about this?" Ah Shu suddenly realized, and his eyes revealed a stubborn look: "I understand this and accept it."
She pinched Xinxue's chin and forced her to raise her head.
But the force used was very small, and apart from being a little embarrassed about being forced to do something, Xinxue basically didn't feel any discomfort.
She saw her own reflection in Ah Shu's eyes.
Her lips opened and closed, and a pleasant voice flowed out: "I found that you smell very nice, which is the main reason why I picked you up."
Snakes have a very keen sense of smell.
Rather than using his eyes, Ah Shu is more accustomed to using his tongue and nasal organs to perceive the world.
All the humans she had seen before had a bitter smell.
The bitter taste is mixed with the smell of tobacco, alcohol and essence brought by life habits. These special tastes make everyone different.
Only new snow is sweet.
It smells sweet no matter how it smells, and just being close to it makes the snake feel relaxed and happy.
It was this fragrance that made Ah Shu include Xinxue in the list of plants he wanted to raise.
The misunderstood "snake egg" was just a bonus to make them familiar with each other.
"Will it smell good?" Xinxue blinked.
Recalling her encounter with the snake woman, that was when she was at her lowest point.
If I had awakened my superpowers at that time, I would definitely see a complex tangle of red and black lines, with very few white lines representing health.
Because of her serious illness, she was so hungry that she could faint at any time. She crawled all the way, and she didn't know how long she had worn the clothes she was wearing. The spices in her backpack, which couldn't fill her stomach, had even spilled out...
No matter how you think about it, it can't possibly be fragrant.
But Ah Shu really didn't need to lie to himself in such a place.
Maybe it’s the legendary body odor?
Just like she always felt that her mother had a reassuring scent.
but……
Xinxue quietly sniffed the scent on Ashu's body. After her mother disappeared, only the smell of this snake could make her feel at ease.
"I'm sorry, I..." Xinxue wanted to say something, but when she raised her head, her mouth was covered by Ashu's hand.
She stared at the new snow with a determined gaze.
She expressed her wish that everything was back on track and that she didn't want to talk about what happened a few days ago.
Xinxue blinked and smiled, then turned to a new chapter.
She even bit Ashu's palm lightly.
After the snake girl frowned slightly and made an expression that said 'How dare you do this' and 'Humans can't eat snakes', he immediately held her hand.
His fingers gradually moved until they were intertwined with hers. The slightly cool temperature completely calmed Xinxue's mood.
Through the door, Xiaobai finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The giant rat's tense nerves relaxed, and it sat down on the ground with its buttocks lowered.
It was weaving the bracelet well and happily calculating how many Singapore dollars it could earn today, but suddenly there was crying and noise outside.
It's about to scare the rat away!
