Xiyu nestled in the man's arms, thinking about how to start the conversation, her fingers unconsciously curling the ends of her hair, and every movement revealed her inner uneasiness.

All this fell into the man's eyes. Yinzhen pursed his lips. He was always smart and perceptive, and seemed to have guessed what the young lady was thinking.

Lying on the bed, he tilted his head slightly and his eyes fell on the table not far away.

After thinking for a moment, he gently placed Xiyu's head on the pillow, opened the drawer in the other's puzzled eyes, picked up Qixi, and used two fingers.

To him, it was just a bit of disgust, but to Qixi, it was a bit of a humiliation for the snake.

"How do you feed your pet? It keeps its eyes closed and won't wake up no matter how much you call it."

Yinzhen held it in his hand and walked to the bedside, then lay back on the bed, gently placing the still-concealed little snake-like body on the quilt with an innocent look on his face.

Blood suddenly rushed into the snake's head, Qi Xi suddenly woke up, and when he opened his eyes again, he saw the two people in front of him.

Qixi: %*@¥%...You are such a good person.

After cursing for a while, it noticed Yinzhen's slightly narrowed eyes, and it felt a sudden chill on its spine. The desire to survive came to its head, and it immediately changed the subject.

The snake's body involuntarily moved towards Xiyu, trying to seek shelter.

But just as he moved a few inches, he was stopped by Yinzhen's increasingly cold eyes.

It stopped and stayed where it was.

[What is this man trying to do? Woohoo… This is too much of a bully…]

The little snake spirit uses secret techniques to transmit sound.

"Just bear with it, it will be fine. Yinzhen may be a bit of a germaphobe. Our identities have been exposed. We must bear the humiliation and bear the burden in order to complete the mission, Mr. Snake Spirit."

Xiyu coaxed him in a gentle voice and also tried to talk to Yinzhen.

"It doesn't need to eat. It can recover by getting enough sleep every day."

It would be better to put it outside to absorb the essence of the sun and the moon when catching up on sleep.

She didn't tell the whole story, and she was still a little nervous about Yinzhen suddenly bringing up the little snake spirit.

Does he...want to get everything clear now?

While Yinzhen was looking at the little snake spirit, Xiyu secretly glanced at his expression.

She secretly made up the answer in her mind, but after waiting for a long time, the other party didn't ask.

"It was talking a few days ago, why isn't it talking today?"

Yinzhen's dark eyes were always fixed on the little snake spirit, but he was asking Xiyu questions in a very gentle tone, for fear of adding to the psychological pressure on the young concubine.

"It may be that it is not familiar to you yet."

Xiyu gave a dry laugh, and the two of them started chatting using the little snake spirit as a starting point.

At first, she was extremely nervous, but later she relaxed because Yinzhen only asked some small questions.

For example, where does the "spiritual pet" Qixi usually hide? Can it transform into a human? Or what magical skills does it know...

Such a simple question was no pressure for Xiyu, and the little snake also agreed from time to time.

When he heard that Qi Xi could no longer use any magic in order to save his master, Yinzhen's sharp eyes softened a lot.

"It's okay. I won't despise you and will take good care of you."

Yinzhen made a commitment to it.

Xiyu and Yinzhen had a relatively relaxed chat with Qixi as the intermediary, but it was just a chat.

Yinzhen never asked Xiyu any of her tense and serious questions. He always gave just the right answer, giving Xiyu enough sense of security.

When Honghui and Lingjiao woke up from their nap, the couple had already reached a tacit understanding.

They know that the other party will not harm them.
