By this time, Uncle Zhong and Bearded Man entered with their heads fully bandaged.
Uncle Zhong, being older, had a stronger combat power.
The Blood Splendor Robe was temporarily placed on Uncle Zhong, while Bearded Man watched as blood flowed like a river from his wound...
Bearded Man cleared his throat, "Snake Lord, you've abducted the person, and now you're staying for a meal, isn't that a bit excessive?"
"Yes, in our host's home, it seems we didn't invite you... to eat... together..." Uncle Zhong's voice trembled slightly as he spoke softly.
These two, who were fierce and terrifying during the commotion,
were now issuing a guest expulsion order with submissive caution.
"Did I say I allowed Yu Longting to take the person away?" Zhang Shuying asked, face dark, voice menacing.
Bearded Man sulked, "Even if we don't permit it, it's useless."
Uncle Zhong pragmatically said, "We can't beat him."
"What would you like to eat?" Yu Longting, completely ignoring them, acted as if he were at his own home and asked me.
All these delicious foods, except for the soy milk, which Zhang Shuying ground, were made by me.
Why can't I eat them!!
In my heart, I felt even more justified than Yu Longting,
"Soy milk, I want the salty kind."
In fact, I'm fine with either sweet or salty.
But since I got pregnant, I've had strong cravings; not only do I want salty, but I also crave spicy.
Yu Longting knows my eating preferences well; he added fried dough sticks and a bit of salt to the soy milk, along with a spoonful of spicy radish.
Seeing him busy with my stuff, I said, "You eat too, don't just fuss over me."
"I'll just have some porridge, the fried cakes you made look quite tasty," Yu Longting said with a gentle smile.
I didn't say anything, but deep down, I was really looking forward to him eating more fried cakes.
I didn't expect Yu Longting to eat them when I made them, but I knew they must taste good.
Having the food I made eaten by Yu Longting gave me an extreme sense of achievement.
"Taoist Zhang, remember to return Su Wan's identity card and mobile phone," Yu Longting said while eating porridge, in an indifferent tone.
Zhang Shuying glanced at Yu Longting and finally spoke to him, "After the meal, I'll go get them for you."
"Much appreciated," Yu Longting responded politely.
The meal ended without incident, and Yu Longting stared at my left shoulder, "That leaf on your shoulder..."
"Oh, this? I almost forgot to tell you, this is Xiao Yuanyuan, I was too busy working and couldn't spare a hand, so I used double-sided tape to stick it on my shoulder."
I turned my head to look at Xiao Yuanyuan, my gaze inevitably softening.
Yu Longting inspected the cocooned Xiao Yuanyuan, "Is this... the Golden Silkworm Gu?"
"Yes, it is Zhang Shuying's life-bound gu," I said with a bit of reluctance but still carefully removed it, "Good thing you reminded me, I almost forgot to give it back to Zhang Shuying."
"It is indeed rare to see the Golden Silkworm Gu form a cocoon," Yu Longting remarked with curiosity.
Zhang Shuying interjected gravely, "As the saying goes, children grow beyond their mother's grasp; the Golden Silkworm Gu wanted to get closer to Su Wan, so it spontaneously formed a cocoon."
Hearing Zhang Shuying call me by my name, and not Spiritual Eye Sister...
I still found it quite amazing.
The title of Snake Lord truly is terrifying; not only my brother Yu Rongling, who has this impressive social prowess, is obedient to him, but even someone with a defiant nature like Zhang Shuying is now behaving properly.
"Can it really do that?"
Yu Longting laughed, "I've heard that the Golden Silkworm Gu, cannot be away from its owner's body for more than four hours. After emerging from the cocoon, it should be able to move about more freely."
"Then... how long until Xiao Yuanyuan hatches?" Something felt odd to me when I heard this.
Yu Longting stroked the top of my head, "It's its first cocooning, so it will be quick, around three days."
"Xiao Yuanyuan will be upset if it doesn't see me when it hatches," I said, looking at the golden cocoon of the Golden Silkworm Gu with some reluctance.
