"Ah, a snake, woo woo... a snake... help me, I'm scared..."
Yes, Zhao Wuyan was very afraid of snakes.
No wonder for the several hours spent in the secret room, she kept vaguely hearing "hissing" sounds. It turned out to be the snakes flicking their tongues.
The secret room was large, with cages on both sides, covered by a fine wire mesh to prevent the snakes from escaping.
Perhaps because each snake was as thick as an arm, they couldn't get out.
But among the snakes were common ones Zhao Wuyan recognized, like the rat snake, python, and cobra. The others were species she didn't know. As soon as the snakes saw the light, they seemed to awaken. Each coiled its body, bobbed its head, and flicked its red tongue, looking at the people standing in the center with greedy eyes.
"Si Bing, save me..."
Zhao Wuyan's face turned pale with fear. She cowered against the wall for a few seconds, then jumped up in fright and rushed towards Tang Si, opening her arms to embrace him.
However, before she could get close to Tang Si, he forcefully lifted a leg and kicked her, sending her flying two meters away.
"Ah!"
Zhao Wuyan's abdomen was kicked fiercely. She staggered a few steps to the side, crashing into a snake cage, which jolted the snakes, causing them to all lift their heads, their eyes gleaming with an eerie light.
The heavy fall and the sharp pain of hitting the iron cage on her back, along with the near-cramping pain in her abdomen, were excruciating.
She fell to the ground, staring at the snakes not far from her. Terrified, she scrambled back to the wall she had been leaning against. After glancing at the large snakes with a pounding heart, she looked at Tang Si with reddened eyes, "Why are you doing this to me? I... I'm carrying your child. I went to the hospital today to check, and we have a child. Si Bing, you can't treat me like this, you can't, woo woo..."
If she had doubted whether Shi Ran's child was Tang Si's before, Tang Si's reaction at this moment had proven everything.
The man in the suit and leather shoes had a slightly disheveled collar, his tie hanging askew around his neck. He held a cigarette, and his usually wicked, handsome, and slightly roguish face was filled with gloomy rage. Even his eyes carried a chilling, murderous intent.
There was no warmth in his dark eyes, only hatred and suppressed anger, as if facing an enemy.
His terrifying gaze made Zhao Wuyan tremble all over, so frightened she almost dared not look directly at Tang Si.
"Si Bing, Mom has always hoped I would have a child. Shall we go back? Mom will be very, very happy if she knows I'm pregnant. And Dad, yes, Dad also wishes for me to have a child."
Zhao Wuyan endured the physical pain and pleaded, "Si Bing, let's go back, woo woo..."
"Go back?"
Tang Si raised an eyebrow, lifted his hand, and brought the cigarette to his lips. He took a drag, his thin lips exhaling a wisp of white smoke that slowly rose and gradually dissipated, leaving the scent of nicotine in the air.
"Yes, go back, let's go home, let's go home." Zhao Wuyan was almost scared out of her wits.
The mere thought of being in the same room with these snakes for the past few hours made her skin crawl and her hair stand on end.
"We haven't slept together, so where did the child come from?"
A smile flickered at the corner of his lips, and he chuckled coldly.
"What...?"
Zhao Wuyan blinked, clearly not understanding Tang Si's meaning. She asked in confusion, "Impossible, it's impossible. In our marital home, we... do that every night. If it's not you, who else could it be? Woo woo... Si Bing, I know you're angry with me. I'm sorry, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have kidnapped Shi Ran. Can you forgive me, woo woo..."
There were still wounds on her arm. It was likely because Zhao Wuyan's clothes were dark that the dried bloodstains were not very clear.
