I Woke the Sick and Disabled Prince on Our Wedding Night

144 Awkward

“But in my opinion, you’re joking with your life!” Lu Ze stretched out his hand to Lin Suisui with a straight face. “Take it out!”

“What?!” Lin Suisui blinked and looked at Lu Ze in confusion. She didn’t seem to have taken anything from Lu Ze! Could it be the dagger she had been given previously?!

“Leave that snake to me!” Lu Ze left no room for negotiation. He spread out his hand and reached out to Lin Suisui.

“Why do you want a Blazing Fire Snake?!” Although Lu Ze didn’t say it explicitly, Lin Suisui already felt that something was wrong. She subconsciously raised her hand to cover her pouch and stared at Lu Ze warily. “I won’t do it again, okay? I finally caught this Blazing Fire Snake. I have other uses for it!”

!!

“Leave it to me. I’ll keep it for you!” Lu Ze insisted. “If you do this again and don’t take your safety seriously, I’ll release this Zhihuo Snake and throw it away!”

“No way!” Lin Suisui said in one last ditch effort, “I-I already said that I won’t do it again. Can’t you not take it away?!”

“No! Every time you make a mistake, you promise me that you’ll be fine. Then, you’ll immediately forget about it! Therefore, this time, I definitely have to have some bargaining chips in my hands! This way, you won’t continue to take risks without considering the consequences the next time you encounter something.”

Lu Ze was very determined this time. Even though Lin Suisui begged him for a long time, it was useless. In the end, she could only hand over the Blazing Fire Snake that she had just caught.

“Do you know how to raise it?!” Seeing that Lu Ze had put away the pouch and was about to hang it on his waist, Lin Suisui asked worriedly, “It’s not familiar with us yet. How about this? We’ll drip our blood in ‘Forgetfulness’ and feed the Blazing Fire Snake for seven to eight days. Then, it’ll remember us and won’t bite us anymore!”

Knowing that it was impossible for Lu Ze to return the Blazing Fire Snake to her now, Lin Suisui had no choice but to settle for the next best thing and tell Lu Ze about the method to tame the Blazing Fire Snake.

Lu Ze was very serious and cooperated with Lin Suisui by pricking his finger and providing her with a few drops of his blood. However, he rejected the suggestion to return the Blazing Fire Snake!

Lin Suisui was so dejected that she didn’t even want to eat dinner. When Fang Liu came over with soup, Lin Suisui forced herself to sit up. As she drank the soup, she muttered to Fang Liu, complaining that Lu Ze was unreasonable.

“How am I unreasonable? In my opinion, you’re indeed too bold!

Everyone was watching in the afternoon. If you hadn’t been there, Mrs. Song would have died today! You caught such a powerful poisonous snake just like that!

If I find out, I’ll teach you a lesson!”

When Fang Liu heard Lin Suisui’s nagging, she couldn’t help but laugh. After laughing, she said to her seriously, “Erlang is just concerned about you. If he didn’t care about you, he would just ignore you and let you do whatever makes you happy!

You know how to deal with these poisonous creatures, but Erlang doesn’t!

Besides, these poisonous creatures are very dangerous. Even if you’re confident, what if something goes wrong?!

Therefore, you should listen to your husband more in the future. Don’t be so impulsive anymore. Just like he said, think about your own safety. Don’t always ignore your own safety!”

Lin Suisui sighed. Although Fang Liu didn’t continue, she knew that Fang Liu was right. She indeed hadn’t considered Lu Ze’s thoughts on this matter.

“I know he cares about me, but I just can’t bear to part with the Blazing Fire Snake!” When she thought about how she had just obtained the Blazing Fire Snake, her heart ached unbearably.

“I only took it away from you to safekeep for the time being. It’s not like I won’t let you touch it again in the future?! Silly girl, is it worth being angry over?! Alright, don’t stay here anymore. I made noodles for you. Come down quickly. Let’s go eat dinner!”

When Lin Suisui was pulled to the bonfire by Fang Liu, Lu Ze was discussing tomorrow’s arrangements with Wu Liu and the others. Seeing Lin Suisui come over, he stopped talking and stood up to make way.

Seeing Lu Ze’s actions, Lin Suisui didn’t hesitate as she dawdled over and sat down beside him. Her reluctant gaze landed on the pouch on Lu Ze’s waist.

“Mrs. Luo cooked noodles for you.” Despite Lin Suisui’s frustration, Lu Ze looked like he was in a good mood. He reached out and put a cloak on Lin Suisui. Seeing that she was still unhappy, he couldn’t help but laugh. “I’m just helping you safe keep it for the time being. It’s not like I won’t return it to you after taking it away!

“As long as you don’t make the same mistake again in the future, I’ll naturally return your treasure to you when I see that you perform well!”

“Madam Liu, is Madam Liu here?!”

Before Lin Suisui could speak, she heard footsteps outside their curtains. In the next moment, she saw a couple coming in from outside. When they saw Lin Suisui, they bent their knees to kneel down.

This commotion shocked Lin Suisui. She quickly stood up and reached out to help her. “No, no, no. This is really embarrassing. How can I accept such a bow from the two of you?!”

“You’re welcome! Madam Liu, you saved Wanwan’s life. Not to mention kowtowing to you, we can even be your slaves!”

The woman held Lin Suisui’s hand as tears welled up in her eyes. “I heard that if it weren’t for you today, Wanwan would have…”

“It’s nothing. It’s no big deal!” Lin Suisui naturally guessed this woman’s identity. They were probably the parents of Mrs. Song, who she had saved this afternoon.

As the woman spoke, she took out a small cloth bag and handed it to Lin Suisui. “This is a small token of appreciation. Our family doesn’t have anything else to thank you with! This was left behind by my mother-in-law’s ancestors. To be honest, my mother-in-law’s family used to practice medicine for generations, but later on, they encountered a disaster and only my mother-in-law survived!

This medical book was passed down from my mother-in-law’s ancestors! Our family has been farming for generations and we’re all illiterate. It’s a waste to leave this medical book in our hands. Why don’t we give it to you? It might be useful!”
