My Demon Husband Is a Snake-Chapter 885: Sorry, I Was Late
I was almost in a daze...
Qing Li, who always acted hysterical and feared nothing.
Actually... cried...
She really cried!!
Like a little white rabbit...
So fragile and soft!
With a beauty in my arms, I momentarily forgot past grievances, feeling deep guilt, "I’m sorry, I’m sorry, Qing Li, I came too late, I just understood the rescue clues in the nightmare."
"You’re such a pig, the clues were so obvious! Yet you didn’t understand, you didn’t understand!!" Qing Li had been hurt too much, bursting into tears, "You left me alone, waiting for so long, my Essence Element was drained every day... If you hadn’t come, I would have died..."
The trembling, broken sobbing crushed one’s heart.
I continued stroking Qing Li’s back, softly admitting fault, "It’s all my fault, all my fault."
"You’re so stupid, I’ll never accept you, never!" Qing Li spoke harshly, extremely aggrieved, but tears kept pouring, "I don’t have such a dumb daughter-in-law as you, did you hear that."
My long fingers smoothed Qing Li’s soft black hair and I sighed, "I heard. You’re too weak now. Let me transfer... transfer... Spiritual Power to you."
Casually glancing at the attic door, I froze slightly.
Lin Huan was standing there at some unknown time, seemingly having heard Qing Li’s earlier words, struck dumb by the sudden realization.
His handsome, stern face almost couldn’t hold an expression, shocked as he looked at Qing Li in my arms, and then at me gently comforting her, "Wanwan, you..."
"Grandpa, when did you... get here...??" After asking, I instantly regretted it, wishing I could bite off my tongue.
Why?! Why did I ask such a stupid question?
No matter when he arrived, he must’ve heard the words daughter-in-law; otherwise, he wouldn’t be so shocked.
My IQ is terrible, practically exposing everything...
How to fix this... can’t hide...
Help!!
Lin Huan cleared his throat, seeming to muster all his strength before speaking, "Just arrived not long ago, cough cough, Qing Li just called you daughter-in-law?? Wanwan??"
"Uh..." Nervously, I mechanically continued to stroke Qing Li’s hair, "Seems like."
Qing Li immediately denied, snorting, "Pah! I’ll never admit... you’re my daughter-in-law!!"
"Yes, yes, yes, she doesn’t acknowledge me; I’m too foolish, haven’t gained her recognition." I scratched my head, looking at Lin Huan’s face with an expression of disbelief, there’s absolutely no room for lying, I could only forcibly introduce, "Grandpa, I haven’t introduced you, this here... is... Qing Li, Yu Longting’s mother, also the former wife of His Majesty the Dragon Emperor, hehe haha..."
My awkward smile almost froze.
Lin Huan’s state was probably similar to mine, his cheeks involuntarily twitching.
For quite a while, he said not a word.
The atmosphere grew oppressive and silent, none of the three spoke.
Only the sound of Qing Li’s tearful hiccupping echoed softly.
At that moment, my phone rang.
Seeing it was Yu Rongling calling, I was overjoyed.
No wonder he’s my darling brother-in-law, appearing like timely rain in need, saving his sister-in-law from turmoil.
I flashed an awkward smile, showing the caller ID "Erha Snake" briefly to Lin Huan and Qing Li, "It’s Yu Rongling calling; I’ll take it, take it, haha~"
"Hello sister-in-law, you must come and judge this, these obnoxious Taoists want to capture me." Yu Rongling’s noisy voice blared through the phone; since I turned on the speaker, his angry voice echoed in the room, "I said I’m here to find you, yet they don’t believe me, falsely accusing me of deliberately trespassing into the Lin Family!! Damn them, and they say my younger sister, that is, Xintang, is the demoness who killed Lin Huan, that old fool,
