Lin Shuangshuang noticed the reactions of both of them and continued, "If you want to wipe it, just wipe it. It's fine as long as you don't mind the trouble."

"I don't mind the trouble. As long as Brother Mu Bai can feel more comfortable, I'm willing to do anything."

"..."

"Then you might as well wash his bed sheets, quilt covers, underwear and sweatshirts every day, so he will be more comfortable."

"The key is, as a princess who has never done housework, can you do these jobs of washing clothes, cooking and serving others?"

Zhao Linglong said stubbornly: "How difficult is this? As long as I want to learn, there is nothing I can't learn."

"For Brother Mu Bai, I am willing to learn anything."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, so touching. It's a pity that some people don't appreciate it. You are like a flower that has feelings but is unfeeling."

Zhao Linglong snorted and was stunned: "I don't need your sympathy. I am willing to do anything."

"If you are willing, then you are willing. I hope your deep love will not be misplaced."

"That's all. I'm leaving now. Fix the bell as soon as possible and ring it if anything happens."

"Oh, by the way, this is the antidote you are going to take. I have marked each bottle, so make sure you don't take the wrong medicine."

"This is for applying on the hands. Venomous insects, snakes and ants all like this smell."

Lin Shuangshuang said as she took out a pile of bottles and jars from the medicine box.

Zhao Linglong said thank you reluctantly.

Butler Su acted quickly and prepared everything in no time. Then he was taken to a designated place for isolation.

On the first day, Lin Shuangshuang found a big loach and put it in a clay pot and lowered it with a bamboo basket.

Zhao Linglong's hands were shaking as she held the jar. She didn't dare to look at what was inside. Just thinking that there was a poisonous snake inside made her faint several times out of fear.

She stayed by the bed because Lin Shuangshuang said that she would stay by the bed and observe Su Mubai's condition at all times.

Therefore, this "cruel and bloody" scene took place right under Su Mubai's nose.

Su Mubai watched Zhao Linglong reach out her hand several times, and then retract her hand reflexively several times.

Even though the poisonous snake hadn't touched her hand yet, she had been frightened and cried several times.

Su Mubai could see that she was genuinely afraid, and said distressedly, "Forget it, Linglong. I can't bear to see you suffer like this."

"I was sorry for you before. I hurt you for my own selfish desires."

"After I leave, find a good family to marry. Don't marry someone like me. I'm not a good person."

"You should find someone who likes you, not someone you like. That way you will be happy."

Zhao Linglong cried out of breath: "I don't want it, I don't want anyone else, I only want you."

"If you die, I will never live alone."

"Brother Mu Bai, I can do it. I'm just a little scared. Give me some more time and I will overcome it."

As she spoke, she took a deep breath, then closed her eyes and thrust her hand into the jar all the way to the bottom.

But when her hand touched the slippery and wriggling object, she screamed in fear and withdrew her hand as quickly as possible.

"Ah...ah..." Zhao Linglong hugged her head, fell on the edge of the bed and cried loudly.

Su Mubai immediately stood up and hugged her: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, let's not do it anymore."

"I'll die if I want to. It's not worth it for you to do this."

Zhao Linglong shook her head: "Brother Mu Bai, it's all my fault. Woo woo woo, I can't save you."

"No, I must save you."

“I will overcome my fear.”

"I'll find a way."

"I just have to find a way to keep my hand from coming back."

So, Zhao Linglong pushed Su Mubai away, went outside the yard to find a rope, and moved a heavy table to the side of the bed.

She wrapped one end of the rope around the foot of the bed, then wrapped it around her arm a few times and tied the other end to the table leg.

"Brother Mu Bai, I'm sorry, just bear with it for a cup of tea and I'll let you go."

Su Mubai looked puzzled: "What are you doing?"

"I'm afraid I'll faint and you'll jump down and knock over the pot to stop me."

"So I'm going to tie you to the bed so you can't get out of it."

"I will leave you one hand. If I faint from shock, you must immediately feed me the antidote in a quarter of an hour."

"I'm right next to the bed. You can reach me, but you can't reach the jar."

Su Mubai felt extremely upset when he heard her good intentions, and he almost choked up.

"Linglong, I don't deserve your affection."

"If I can survive, I will never let you down in this life."

Zhao Linglong shook her head: "Brother Mu Bai, I don't ask for anything this time, I just hope you can be safe and healthy."

"I know you don't like me, I will...I won't bother you anymore."

"After this incident, I have come to terms with it. Nothing is more important than living a healthy life."

"Even if we love each other, we don't necessarily have to be together. If my love brings you pressure and pain, I would rather leave."

"I don't want to be selfish and ignore your feelings. I love you because I want you to be well and give you the best in the world, not to make you suffer."

Su Mubai listened to Zhao Linglong's relieved words and suddenly felt a little flustered. Could it be... was she going to leave him too?

"Linglong, listen to me. I am truly determined to accept you. I am not forcing myself, and I am not feeling any pressure or pain."

Zhao Linglong smiled bitterly: "Brother Mu Bai, let's not talk about this for now."

"We'll talk about these things later. What we need to do now is to cure your illness."

As Zhao Linglong spoke, she took the rope and tied Su Mubai's hands and feet to the bed rails, leaving only one hand free.

He placed a pill for antidote to snake venom in his hand and lit a stick of incense on the table.

Although Lin Shuangshuang said it would take a cup of tea, a cup of tea is difficult to calculate and not accurate enough.

It would be more accurate to light a stick of incense. One stick of incense is the time of two cups of tea. As long as half a stick of incense is burned, she can take the antidote.

Su Mubai was also aware of this. He nervously held the antidote tightly and stared at the incense on the table.

After doing all this, a fearless expression flashed across Zhao Linglong's face, and she suddenly plucked up the courage to reach her hand into the earthen jar.

When the poisonous snake in the jar touched her again, she reflexively wanted to pull her hand back.

But this time she was tied with a rope, and no matter how she struggled, she couldn't pull her hands back.

Suddenly, she felt a pain in her hand as a poisonous snake bit her finger. Zhao Linglong screamed and fainted instantly.

“Linglong, Linglong!!”

"Linglong!" Su Mubai was extremely panicked when he saw Zhao Linglong fainting.

He called out to her loudly, but Zhao Linglong couldn't be woken up no matter what he did.

He wanted to get out of bed and overturn the clay pot, but he was restrained by the ropes and couldn't move at all.

Su Mubai stretched out his hand and tried to reach the earthen jar, but no matter how he moved his body, he could not reach the jar at all.

Helplessly, he could only reach out and pinch Zhao Linglong's philtrum, almost pinching it until it was swollen, and then Zhao Linglong slowly woke up.
