Playing With Snakes

“Hi, hi, I’m here!”

Suddenly, the woman’s response rang out from the hills.

Jiang Jingchen was stunned. He quickened his pace and rushed over.

Not far away, the woman smiled and waved at him. He did not stop walking until he pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly.

Tang Beibei didn’t know what was wrong with the man. He hugged her so tightly that she couldn’t breathe.

“Hubby, let go of me. I can’t breathe.”

Not only did he not let go, but he even bit her hard on the shoulder. Tang Beibei groaned in pain.

“Hubby, that hurts!” Tang Beibei begged.

Only then did Jiang Jingchen let go and check on her. She only lost a shoe; she was fine otherwise.

He didn’t say anything. He just grabbed the back of her neck and kissed her hard on the lips, almost taking her breath away.

Tang Beibei could barely breathe. She grabbed his clothes nervously and her body trembled.

She felt like he was trying to swallow her whole!

When he finally let her go, she panted heavily, her face flushed red.

“Tell me, why are you here?”

His tone was very cold, like he was reprimanding her.

“I was chasing the snake away.” Tang Beibei said softly with tinge of guilt.

“Chasing the snake away?”

Tang Beibei explained, “I was pushed by Jiang Minghua and almost stepped on the snake. Fortunately, the snake wasn’t very active. Perhaps it was the winter weather that made it a little weak and it didn’t bite me.”

“I was also worried that the snake would bite, so 1 found a few herbs in the greenhouse, twisted them around a rope and then used the rope to chase the snake out of the greenhouse. I ran too fast, and one of my shoes got caught at the door. I just took off the other shoe and continued to chase the snake up the mountain.”

“But then I thought that the snake would be cold out in the mountain, so I followed it and waited for him to find a place to hide before I came back.”

Jiang Jingchen laughed in exasperation. He knew that his wife’s brain was different from others.

When they were in the car accident before, he left carrying Song Zhou on his back and couldn’t take care of her. She carried a big branch back alone to put out the fire so it wouldn’t spread.

And this time when she chased the snake away, she was worried that the snake would freeze to death.

He pinched her face. “Silly girl, why didn’t you holler?”

Did she know how worried he was?

He had even thought about killing Jiang Minghua and chopping her up to feed the dogs!

“It’s not a big deal.”

Tang Beibei explained seriously, “Everything has a spirit. The snake came to the greenhouse to avoid the cold. It was probably not in a good mood when disturbed.”

Jiang Jingchen’s heart was filled with anger, but after listening to her explanation, his flames of anger were gone.

He lowered his head and kissed her again.

This time, the kiss was very light, gentle and cherishing.

Tang Beibei sensed that he was emotional and reciprocated by leaning into his arms.

“Hubby, I was feeling cold, but 1 feel warm now that you’re here.”

Jiang Jingchen laughed in frustration. “Don’t coax me. Where did the snake go?”

Tang Beibei immediately pointed behind her. “There. In a hole with some dry grass to shield it from the cold wind.”

Jiang Jingchen rubbed her head, his eyes gentle. “Obedient Beibei, you like small animals.”

“Yeah, cute little animals.”

“Are snakes cute too?”

Tang Beibei snuggled into his arms again and said with a smile, “When 1 lived with the Rongs, 1 had a snake.”

“You kept a snake?”

“It was a very small snake. It was run over by a car when it crossed the road and was injured. 1 brought it back with bag to treat it but its injuries were too serious.”

Jiang Jingchen had long heard about people who kept snakes, but he didn’t expect his wife to have done it.

He made a mental note: when she was young, she preferred hanging out with small animals than socializing with people.

But he quickly heard her say, “1 hadn’t eaten meat for a long time then, so I cooked the snake. The snake soup tasted pretty good. I felt that I owed that snake a lot, so 1 even erected a tombstone for the little guy.”

Neither of them wore a coat. Hugging for warmth was romantic.

The two of them shivered when the cold wind blew.

The forces of nature couldn’t be defied.

Jiang Jingchen squatted down in front of her. “My hero Beibei, come up.”

Tang Beibei jumped onto his back with a smile. When she hugged his neck, she even snuggled against it playfully.

The wind was cold, but her skin felt warm.

She was just such a cutie.

In just a few minutes, he experienced how cold the winter felt but also realized that he could find warmth in the middle of winter.

When the two of them got back to the villa, they saw a few security guards frantically searching for something. When they saw the two of them, they stopped in surprise.

“Young Master, is Young Madam alright?”

“She’s fine. She was too naughty and got carried away playing with snakes.”

The security guards were all dumbfounded as they looked at the woman on his back in horror.

She actually played with snakes?

When Jiang Jingchen went back to the greenhouse, there was no one there.

Jiang Jingchen put her down, picked up her shoes and squatted down to put them on for her.

“It’s okay, Hubby, I can do it myself.”

“Obedient Beibei is a hero today. If you didn’t chase that snake away, you’d probably be taken away by the security guards. I want to reward you.”

He helped her put on her shoes and got up to hold her hand. Her hand felt a little cold, so he squeezed it.

In the living room…

Jiang Minghua, who was tired from crying, poured herself a glass of water and took a few sips. She thought about Jiang Jingchen’s panicked expression and found it funny.

Tang Beibei was just the illegitimate daughter of the Rong family, a woman who was married to him to ward off his illness, yet he treasured her so much.

He really lacked love.

When Song Yan heard the news, she came out of the kitchen and asked worriedly, “Tang Beibei was bitten by a snake?”

“Yes, I didn’t expect it either.”

Jiang Minghua’s tone was regretful, but there was no regret on her face.

Song Yan glanced at Jiang Xing expressionlessly. He didn’t seem too bothered about Jiang Jingchen’s wife and didn’t care if she died.

She let out a sigh before she said, “With Beibei’s accident, I wonder if Jiang Jingchen will sink back into depression.”

“It’s possible. I really pity First Brother. He has just recovered and hasn’t even had a child yet and he lost his wife.”

Jiang Minghua was happy at the thought of Jiang Jingchen becoming dejected and leaving the Jiang family.

She picked up her teacup and took a sip gracefully before she heard footsteps. One of the security guards ran back excitedly and said, “Master, Miss, Fourth Young Master, First Young Master and First Young Madam are back!”

Jiang Minghua’s mouth was almost scalded by the tea. She put down the teacup and asked with a long face, “Are you sure?”

“See for yourself.”

A gust of cold wind blew in, and the tall Jiang Jingchen walked in holding Tang Beibei’s hand.

He was wrapped in the cold winter, and the temperature in the living room dropped by several degrees.

The cold wind blew against her face, and Jiang Minghua felt a layer of frost on her back. Her expression changed drastically, and she shrank her shoulders in fear.

The others were also very surprised. Didn’t they say that there was an accident?

Jiang Jingchen’s handsome face was cold, and his dark eyes were gloomy. His indifference had been replaced by an oppressive aura that made even Jiang Xing uncomfortable.

“That snake played with my wife for a while before it ran away.”

There was obvious threat in Jiang Jingchen’s deep voice.

“Next, let’s settle the human score!”
