Hot Fall: The Domineering Snake Husband Gently Embraces Me

"You... stop talking..."

Su Qingqing interrupted Lin Mubai, her expression turning pale, "Yanli... he doesn't understand anything. He couldn't even speak before. I taught him all the words he could say. He's not as complicated as humans, so he doesn't know..."

She talked to herself for a moment, then met Lin Mubai's eyes and suddenly fell silent.

Lin Mubai said, "Qingqing, you overlooked one thing. How long did it take him to master our language? You didn't dare to tell me about going home before, weren't you afraid that he would understand?"

Seeing her face turn pale in an instant, Lin Mubai felt a little distressed. She was only 22 years old, a young girl who had just graduated from college. She had only been working for a few days when she encountered such a thing. He didn't want to scare her like this.

But there were some things he felt it necessary to say, to prevent the girl from being confused all the time. If something really happened, it would be too late.

After all, Yan Li looked like that.

He thought of the tail that was tightened around his neck last night, and those sharp eyes that seemed to be able to see through him.

How could a girl like Su Qingqing endure the fear and power that even he could not resist?

"Qingqing, Yanli is much smarter than you think. Don't think that you taught him, rather than him keeping you captive and controlling you. You'd better find a way to leave quickly, otherwise I'm afraid it will be too late, unless you like him? You want to stay with him, even if it means being with him..."

"No! It's impossible! There's no way I would like Yan Li! Don't talk nonsense!"

Su Qingqing's voice was a little sharp.

Lin Mubai was not wrong. She had been brainwashing herself and avoiding herself all along. She had been like this since she met Yan Li.

Because if she didn't do this, she would be overwhelmed by her own fear, unable to stand up again, and would not have the courage to tell herself that as long as she persisted, she would be able to see her father, mother and brother again one day.

Su Qingqing took a deep breath and looked at Lin Mubai, "If Yanli finds out that I'm not here, he'll come looking for me right away. He's very fast. Do you have any solution?"

"I have a way to do this. Don't worry. As long as you tell me you want to go home, I will take you back." Lin Mubai told her gently, his voice soothing, as if telling her not to be afraid.

Su Qingqing bit her lip. Under Lin Mubai's gaze, she finally made up her mind and nodded. "I want to go home. I want to go back and see my family and friends. They must be very worried about me."

She couldn't stay here forever, and it was impossible for her to like Yan Li.

This might be her last chance. If she doesn't seize it, she will never be able to return home.

Every night she had nightmares. She dreamed of her parents’ haggard and old faces, and her brother’s worried and longing eyes. These voices all tormented her nerves.

She wanted to go home and see them no matter what.

After all, wasn’t this the reason why we saved Lin Mubai in the first place?

Lin Mubai nodded, "I understand."

"Then what should I do next?"

"You don't have to do anything. My friend will come to pick me up in a few days. I will tell Yanli that I plan to leave first. Since he doesn't like me, he probably won't stop me. Just look for my signal then."

Su Qingqing nodded gently. Lin Mubai didn't dare to stay beside her for too long and turned to wash the vegetables.

Su Qingqing was still in a trance until night fell, when Yan Li curled up beside her and fell asleep. His recent condition seemed a little unstable, so he simply turned into a big red snake and coiled Su Qingqing in his tail, with the huge snake head blocking the outside of the cave. Under the moonlight, the gem inlaid on his forehead seemed to be glowing as if it was filled with blood.

Su Qingqing didn’t know if it was her illusion, but she felt that the gem on Yan Li’s forehead seemed a little redder. When she first saw him, the color was still light.

She couldn't tell his actual age from his appearance. He looked like a human being in his twenties. But since he could transform into a human form, he should be quite old, right?

Su Qingqing was lost in thought and didn't even realize that her eyes were unconsciously focused on Yan Li.

At this moment, she was looking at the night sky above her head, her eyes somewhat dazed and confused.

Is she happy knowing that she is going back?

It would be a lie to say that she wasn't happy when she thought about seeing her family. It was just that this happiness was mixed with some other emotions that she didn't understand.

If she leaves, will Yanli be sad?

But he is a big snake, there is no expression on his face, and he doesn't understand human emotions. Maybe he just lost a fun toy like a human. He might forget about it after a while and turn around to find a new toy.

Su Qingqing comforted herself in this way, closed her eyes and tried to forget these unrealistic thoughts as soon as possible.

She was going to go home, she had to go home!

She just wanted to go back to her family.

She didn't do anything wrong...

But on the next day, she got up early and made a hearty breakfast for Yan Li.

There aren't many things she can cook, and most of the time she's only halfway there. When she first starts cooking, the food is either too salty or too bland, or it's overcooked or undercooked.

But no matter how bad or horrible her cooking was, Yan Li would always eat it all up.

This also greatly encouraged Su Qingqing's motivation to cook, but the ingredients here are limited, and the climbers will not prepare all kinds of seasonings, at most black pepper and salt.

Usually Su Qingqing thinks it’s no big deal, the conditions are just like that, so there’s no need to be picky.

But now she suddenly felt that she had secretly agreed with Lin Mubai to deceive him, and she felt a little sorry for Yan Li. Because of this inexplicable sense of guilt, Su Qingqing was particularly serious when making things, and she almost used all her life's learning.

When Yan Li came out, he saw the ground outside was full of things, all filled with washed leaves and pots and bowls. There was rich vegetable broth, stir-fried wild vegetables, grilled meat, grilled fish, fish soup, and even a bowl of sweet yam and raspberry soup.

She had been busy since dawn and had been busy until now, cooking all the food stored outside.

Hearing the voice, Su Qingqing subconsciously looked over and saw Yan Li standing over there. Ever since Lin Mubai came, he had maintained his human form and put on clothes, even though the clothes still made him feel uncomfortable.

Su Qingqing saw him, paused, then quickly stood up and ran towards him.

"You're awake. I made some of your favorite food. Come and eat it."
