Jin Yebei’s lips curved up slightly. She still remembered his snake form so clearly. He was worried that she would mistake him for someone else, but it seemed that he was overthinking things. However, if even if he revealed the truth to her, she wouldn’t believe him. She would even think that Jin Yebei was trying to cheat her of her body. Then, the loss would outweigh the gain. Jin Yebei said, “You remember it so clearly?”

Ning Ruxing nodded when she heard this. Of course, she would remember it clearly. They had lived together for quite a while in the forest. If it weren’t for the big snake, Ning Ruxing might have been eaten up by other animals a long time ago. Therefore, no matter what, Ning Ruxing must find the big snake that could talk. Ning Ruxing murmured with disappointment in her eyes, “Of course I remember you, my savior!

“Snake, where are you?”

Jin Yebei could hear everything she just muttered, which only made his smile grow wider. He looked into Ning Ruxing’s eyes. She was just as cute as the little baby from back then. Jin Yebei could still remember the first time he saw her. Ning Ruxing was extremely aggrieved and asked him for food. She hugged him to sleep at night as well. Jin Yebei asked in a low voice, “Then, do you miss it?”

Ning Ruxing also remembered that year when she saw the snake for the first time. Not only was she not afraid, but she also thought that the snake was a good snake, which was why she felt comfortable to ask food from it. What was more unexpected was that the snake could speak. In that half a month, the snake took her to find food every day, and occasionally brought back some other food. Thinking of this, Ning Ruxing said,”I do, I really do!”

Hearing this, Jin Yebei smiled gently. It turned out that he was not the only one who had been thinking about the little girl. The little girl had been thinking about him too! Ning Ruxing seemed to have noticed something. She turned around and saw Jin Yebei smiling. He was smiling so beautifully that Ning Ruxing felt a little suspicious.

“What are you smiling about?”

Jin Yebei came back to his senses. He stopped smiling and returned to his cold appearance. Now that the matter was settled, the remaining time should be considered their date time. As for the matter of acknowledging each other, it would have to wait a while to avoid being too abrupt and scaring the little girl. Jin Yebei said,”Nothing. Since this isn’t the one, let’s go!”

Ning Ruxing looked at the python again, nodded, and left with Jin Yebei. They strolled around the other parks. This zoo had a wide variety of animals. When they passed by the peacock area, a peacock spread its tail at them. Jin Yebei looked at Ning Ruxing and asked, “If it was the snake you knew that day, what would you do?”

When Ning Ruxing heard this question, she was stunned for a moment. She thought about the big snake she had seen just now again and was very sure that it was not what she was looking for. The one in the zoo only knew how to eat and sleep, but the one in Ning Ruxing’s memory knew how to take a bath and even roll around in the flowers to become fragrant. Ning Ruxing thought for a while and sincerely said, “Of course I’ll do my best to help it!

“Since it’s a wild animal, it shouldn’t be in a cage. That’s too pitiful!

“I’ll talk to the zoo’s leader and ask him to set it free. I’ll either buy it or let it go!”

Hearing Ning Ruxing’s words, Jin Yebei’s interest was piqued. The jungle where they first met was gone. If he were to be released, where would it be? Could it be that this little girl didn’t remember that she had promised the great snake to be its wife? Jin Yebei looked at Ning Ruxing and seriously asked, “Release where?”

Ning Ruxing was also thinking about this problem. The original jungle was gone. If it was released it in the countryside, it would likely be caught again and put back in the zoo. It would also likely be caught and eaten by someone. So there was only one place to release it. After serious consideration, Ning Ruxing said, “The Amazon rainforest!”

Jin Yebei was speechless. This was not a release but sending it to its death! Snakes have a strong territorial nature. If other snakes were to break in, one of them would definitely die. It seemed that the little girl has not thought it through. Jin Yebei coughed lightly, then said, “Snakes are very territorial. Are you sure you want to set them free and not send them to their deaths?

“Moreover, it’s so far away. Can it adapt and survive there? Will it be eaten by other snakes?”
