"Madam, what's wrong?" Ruan Zheng was dragged out by the old lady by the arm.

Seeing that the direction seemed to be Yin Kun's residence, she frowned. She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she felt that the old lady was extremely strong at this moment, so strong that she couldn't resist.

"Xiaobao is in trouble. I didn't see him after dinner and asked the servants to look for him. To their surprise, they found him playing in the old third courtyard."

"In the Third Courtyard, I'm sure you've heard that a poisonous snake got into the house this morning and bit a servant to death. I'm worried something might have happened to the little one."

After the old lady finished speaking, Ruan Zheng's scalp tightened instantly. The tragic scene of the servant who was bitten by a snake in the morning flashed through her mind, and she felt a little cold.

Xiaobao, please don't be in any danger.

After a while, the two arrived at Yin Kun's house and saw a large group of people in the yard still looking for the poisonous snake.

Ruan Zheng rushed over and picked up the little guy, her face full of worry, "Xiaobao, are you okay? Let me take a look."

The little girl shook her head and wrote on her palm, "Sister, I want to find a snake."

Ruan Zheng was so shocked by his words that her heart trembled. She patted the little guy's head and said, "Xiaobao, be obedient. I will take you back."

As long as the poisonous snake is not found, it means that Yin Kun's house is in danger at any time. As an adult, she will be careful, but Xiaobao cannot be like that. He is just a child, so Ruan Zheng cannot let him stay for long.

Unexpectedly, when Xiaobao heard her say that she would take him back, he shook his head like a rattle.

Seeing that he was particularly stubborn and obstinate, Ruan Zheng said seriously, "Xiaobao, that's a poisonous snake, not a toy."

Xiao Bao pouted, thinking that it was precisely because it was a poisonous snake that he had to find it, otherwise it would endanger his sister sooner or later.

"How's it going, Third Brother? Still haven't found the snake? If not, send more people."

While Ruan Zheng was holding Xiaobao, Old Lady Yin and Yin Kun were talking. Because they were facing away from each other, Ruan Zheng could not see her face clearly.

However, her overly stiff back made Ruan Zheng suspicious. On the surface, they seemed to be talking about the venomous snake, but...

"really?"

Yin Kun heard what the old lady said, and he couldn't control his emotions and frowned, with a gloomy look under his dark eyes.

Seeing his expression, the old lady rolled her eyes from behind. Yin Kun immediately understood and said calmly, "Don't worry, auntie. I will find the poisonous snake."

The old lady nodded. "Yes, we must find the snake at all costs. Otherwise, not only you but the entire Yin family will be in panic. Okay, you guys take your time looking for it. I'll go back first."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and looked at Ruan Zheng who was holding Xiaobao, and said in a kind tone, "Ruan girl, let's go back."

When she walked up to the two of them, she saw Xiaobao's head drooping on her shoulder. She reached out and touched the little guy's head with an overly worried tone.

"This kid, I was really scared by him tonight. Fortunately, nothing happened. Otherwise, I would be too embarrassed to see you."

The old lady's expression was impeccable, and Ruan Zheng's heart was filled with alarm. "I'm sorry, old lady. It was Xiaobao who made you worry. I will talk to him properly later."

"Why are you talking about him? Children just like to play. Junye was like this when he was a child. It's okay." After touching the little guy, the old lady tried to pull Xiaobao's hand, but he shook it off with force.

The atmosphere was tense for a second. When Ruan Zheng reacted, the little guy had already buried his head in her shoulder and started crying. His sobbing voice was so heartbreaking.

But Ruan Zheng noticed that something was wrong with the little guy. She lowered her eyes to look at him. Just one glance, and her breathing suddenly became rapid.

Fortunately, he was mentally strong and the old lady didn't see through him. She raised her hand and patted the little guy on the back. She said softly, "Xiaobao, you must be scared. I told you not to run around."

When Old Lady Yin heard her words, she didn't think much of it. She just thought the little guy was frightened and said, "Let's go back."

Ruan Zheng nodded.

On the way back, Xiaobao stayed in Ruan Zheng's arms without moving, but the golden-blue eyes had disappeared and his mood had improved a lot.
