Chapter 434: She’s Already 18 Years Old
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
She had been sitting in a bamboo chair and joking with her grandfather. She was clearly so weak that even her eyelids trembled. However, her smile was so bright and radiant, and there was no unhappiness in it at all.
It was also at that time that he pretended to be sickly and became her neighbor.
Every time he came to see her when he was unhappy, all his terrible emotions would be swept away, and he would even have the energy to go back and clean up that mess.
Now that ten years had passed, his bad habit of relying on her hadn’t changed at all!
Ling Chuan chuckled self-deprecatingly.
His slender fingers couldn’t help but reach out and gently stroke her little head.
One after another, each caress was extremely doting and restrained, as if he was stroking a cat’s fur.
Snake An, who was busy stirring the medicine with the tip of her tail, was dumbfounded. What was he doing?
Didn’t he know that this would affect her?
The confused snake turned its head to look at him with bright, speechless eyes.
A certain person laughed even more and asked, “An?”
“What?
“You only just recognized me?”
A certain little girl inexplicably felt a little shy, and she ducked her head to avoid his big hand.
She wrapped her little tail around the medicine she had prepared and headed for Ling Mo’s bed.
Ling Mo’s face was still blank as he obediently lay down and let Snake An handle things.
He completely didn’t notice his little uncle’s lingering gaze, filled with the stirrings of love.
It was only when Snake An applied the ointment on him with the tip of her tail and wrapped his hand in a bandage that Ling Mo looked at his uncle. However, his little uncle had already restrained his emotions, and pulled the snake away to put it back in the basket.
“Rest well. I’ve already gotten someone to settle your father’s matter. They’ll be caught in the next few days.
“Don’t mess around.”
After a few simple instructions, his little uncle turned around and left with the snake in the basket.
Ling Mo was even more dumbfounded. If this was any other time, wouldn’t this guy punish him by making him write a self-reflection?
Why was he suddenly different?
His hand had only been injured this time, but when he had almost died once before, his uncle had still forced him to memorize the house rules 500 times!
Ling Mo’s puzzled expression disappeared, and he obediently said, “Oh.”
Of course, he said it too quietly to be heard.
He already knew everything.
Although his little uncle hadn’t explicitly supported his investigation into his father’s matter, his little uncle hadn’t forgotten to clean up his father’s reputation after all these years, even though he seemed to be on good terms with those old farts.
Compared with Ling Mo, who was direct and blunt in how he lived, his little uncle was the one who had always suffered the most!
The little kid couldn’t help but tear up. He suddenly felt…
Hey, his hand didn’t seem to hurt that much anymore.
Weird.
Speaking of which, why did his little uncle have to take away the snake that had treated him?
Ling Mo suddenly had the urge to snatch the snake away. Little did he know that his little uncle urgently needed to be alone right now.
…
“How did you become like this? What on earth happened?”
As soon as Ling Chuan returned to his room, he placed the basket on the bed and started asking questions with a serious face.
He seemed to have completely forgotten that as a snake, she only knew how to hiss.
Snake An blinked and just stared at him blankly. She handed him the medicine with her little tail.
He was still caring about others when he was clearly injured himself.
When he had been hit by that monster, she had almost been scared to death.
The little tail tickled as it wrote a few words on his palm.
Tears welled up in the man’s dark red eyes. He wiped them away immediately and comforted her in a low voice. “I’m fine. Don’t worry.” You’re the important one.
“No way.
“You stink.”
The tail wrote down two more lines on his hand; the snake’s tone was very firm.
Ling Chuan was helpless. In the end, he listened to her and teased, “Then, is our little An’an going to take a shower with me?”
He blinked charmingly and smiled even more as he said, “After all, our little An’an also stinks.”
“You, hmph!”
The little snake turned her head away. If she had arms, she would definitely have crossed them.
Ling Chuan couldn’t help but smile again. He rubbed her little head affectionately and found a pen and paper for her, which he placed on the side.
“Then, I’ll go and clean up. Be good and write down what you want to tell me?”
“Mm.”
The little snake nodded obediently.
The man looked at her with dark eyes for a long time. He turned around and was about to leave, but for some reason, he couldn’t let go. He was worried that if he wasn’t careful, she would disappear again.
His slender fingers pulled her to the bathroom.
He even said pompously, “You really stink a little. I’ll help you wash up first.”
“Hey, who needs your help?”
A certain snake inexplicably panicked, and turned around to escape.
However, when she saw the beautiful light green medicinal hot spring, and smelled the faint fragrance of the distant forest, she was instantly tempted!
It had been too long since she had taken a bath.
Now that she was injured, a bubble bath would be good for her body.
She hesitated for a moment, but then still decided to crawl inside. She placed her head on the fluffy cushion that Ling Chuan had placed on the ground for her earlier, and soaked her entire body in the water.
“Sob~”
It felt too good!
A certain snake wanted to cry.
Sure enough, it was fun and exciting living on the streets, but it was really too tiring.
It was still more comfortable to lie down and not do anything, although one could easily become idle.
Snake An narrowed her eyes in satisfaction. However, when she saw the tight tan skin in front of her…
The man had a lean figure and distinct abs. From top to bottom, the lines of his body were completely alluring.
Small nostrils flared, and a certain snake head hurriedly dove into the water.
Then —
“Cough, cough~”
Fortunately, a certain pair of big hands picked her up immediately to prevent her from drowning.
Then, a certain snake ran into the man’s arms and came into even closer contact —
“Sob~”
In any case, he would be hers sooner or later. It didn’t matter if she took a few more looks, right?
Also, she was already 18 years old.
So, a snake twisted around…
…
When Snake An fled from the bath, a certain person was still laughing out loud.
That laughter was bright and unrestrained, like that of an ancient sword immortal sitting alone on a roof and drinking wine.. The laughter was soul-stirring and lingered. It made a certain snake’s originally pink skin turn red, as if it had been cooked!
