Nanako Haruno heard her mother’s embarrassed retort and, tilting her head, she seriously said, "Mom, good men like Brother Xiaobei are rare. You should hold on to him!"
"I..."
Hu Xiaobei and Haruno Rei were both speechless upon hearing Nanako’s words.
...
After dinner, Hu Xiaobei headed back to his own room.
During the meal, Hu Xiaobei had been discussing various pieces of information with them.
That was how Hu Xiaobei had learned more about Japan.
Only after he knew various detailed pieces of information did Hu Xiaobei realize that the flower company he was dealing with this time was really terrifying.
Of course, even though he knew this, Hu Xiaobei still wasn’t planning to back down.
Because Hu Xiaobei knew that it was a do-or-die situation with them now.
...
"What should I do about them now? Should I just go directly to their company?"
Hu Xiaobei stood by the window, pondering...
He knew that going directly to their company was completely impractical...
The reason it was impractical was that this was Japan.
He wasn’t familiar with this place, so going directly to their company might put him at a disadvantage...
While he was thinking, Hu Xiaobei heard a cry from outside.
Instinctively raising his head, Hu Xiaobei saw Haruno Rei sitting on the ground in the backyard, seemingly panicked.
"What’s going on?"
Puzzled, Hu Xiaobei quickly ran outside.
Soon, Hu Xiaobei was by her side.
At that moment, Hu Xiaobei saw that she was really in a mess, sitting on the ground.
"Auntie, what... what happened?"
"Xiaobei, you... you need to get out of here quickly. There’s a snake, and I think it just bit me!"
"Snake? Auntie, you were really bitten?"
"Yes! I was just coming here to pick some flowers, and as soon as I arrived, I saw a snake in the bushes. I saw it and tried to run, but it was too late, so it bit me!"
As she explained, she slightly bit her now blackening lower lip...
Seeing this, Hu Xiaobei’s expression grew serious.
Hu Xiaobei knew the snake that bit her had to be venomous.
"Auntie, how are you feeling right now?"
"I... I don’t feel much! Just... just that my right leg is a bit numb!"
"Where were you bitten? Was it your right leg?"
"I... I don’t really remember, I was dazed at the moment!"
Hearing her explanation, Hu Xiaobei nodded slightly. Quickly, Hu Xiaobei crouched down...
The moment he crouched, Hu Xiaobei’s expression turned extremely grim...
Because at that moment, Hu Xiaobei smelled a strong scent of blood.
Most importantly, this scent of blood contained a nauseating, fishy stench.
"So the snake that bit Haruno Rei was indeed poisonous!"
Smelling the nauseating stench, Hu Xiaobei spoke solemnly...
The next second, Hu Xiaobei looked very carefully, and soon he saw a deep black wound above her delicate ankle...
Hu Xiaobei knew the snake had bitten her right there...
Because that spot was now oozing dark black blood...
Looking away, Hu Xiaobei asked Haruno Rei, "Auntie, do you... do you remember what the snake looked like?"
Haruno Rei, hearing Hu Xiaobei’s question, shook her head weakly, "I... I can’t quite remember!"
"Then I understand!"
After nodding, Hu Xiaobei quickly said, "Auntie, I’ll first carry you back to your room. Then, I’ll take a good look at it."
"Xiaobei, you... you know how to treat medical conditions?"
"Um! A bit!"
Without making definite promises, Hu Xiaobei stepped forward.
Soon, Hu Xiaobei carefully picked her up...
Being lifted by Hu Xiaobei, Haruno Rei was startled at first, then she became a bit nervous.
She was anxious because Haruno Rei hadn’t expected Hu Xiaobei to pick her up so casually...
"It’s been so many years! It really has been many years since I’ve had such close contact with the opposite sex!"
