Chapter 3
Su Xue saw that Qiao Nian was refusing to leave. Thinking that Qiao Nian wanted to run away from the marriage, she immediately walked up to Qiao Nian and said in a low voice, “Hurry up and get in the wedding car. Let me tell you, don’t you dare try any tricks!”
Qiao Nian turned her head to glance at the man. He was wearing a spotlessly white shirt that accentuated his tall figure. The top two buttons of his shirt were unbuttoned, and right above it was a handsome face—so handsome it was nearly suffocating to look at.
“Who are you?” Qiao Nian raised her eyebrow slightly. She could just about guess his identity. To be able to play with snakes so brazenly in the Gu residence, this man had to be the ugly and short-lived Second Young Master, Gu Zhou!
“Stop playing tricks. Hurry and get into the Gu family’s car!” Su Xue was really worried that Qiao Nian would use this opportunity to escape. She didn’t want her darling daughter Qiao Xin to marry a short-lived wretch.
Qiao Nian sat there calmly. Her right hand reached out and casually took hold of the seven-inch python. Her lips curved up slightly. Smiling, she said, “You’re quite capable, aren’t you? Perfect for medicinal use!”
Qiao Nian thought to herself. If Qiao Xin knew that she came to the Gu family in a wedding dress, but it turned out that the Gu family had no intention of holding a wedding, Qiao Xin might just burst into tears.
Su Xue gritted her teeth in anger, but she had no choice but to call an ambulance. She even asked the servant to bring out a chair for the little boy to sit on. When she was done, she walked over to Qiao Nian.
As Qiao Nian spoke, she let go of the snake in her hand. The blue-green python seemed to nurse a grievance as it silently slithered onto Gu Zhou’s shoulder. It lowered its little head, looking pitiful.
In her wedding dress, Qiao Nian walked alone into the Gu residence. The Gu family servants were momentarily surprised to see her wearing that, but still politely brought her to the drawing room.
Her hands weren’t big, and her slender fingers looked like they could be broken just by the wind.. He would never have expected such a pair of delicate hands to be able to grab his python.
The Gu family’s drawing room was lavishly furnished, in a style that resembled European architecture. Sunlight filtered through the glass, bathing the entire living room in golden light.
At this moment, Qiao Nian suddenly sensed something strange behind her. Instinctively, she moved aside, and almost immediately after, she glimpsed a blue creature flying past her.
However, it was said that no one was willing to come to this place. Once they stepped into the Gu family’s territory, the Gu family’s bodyguards would convince them to leave.
Qiao Nian could tell that there was nothing wrong with the little boy’s pulse. Seeing that his face was pale and that he was still covered in cold sweat, she had an idea.
The python flicked out its bright red tongue and stared coldly at Qiao Nian. Its body swayed continually, as if it was considering how it should attack and devour her.
Seeing Gu Zhou’s displeased face, Qiao Nian shook the snake in her hand and said, “It was lucky that you spoke fast. Otherwise, I would have turned it into medicine!”
