In truth, Wang Miao had not gone far. Her sobs could be heard from within the study.
Gu Zhou's expression turned ugly. He frowned in displeasure, a wave of irritation washing over him.
Gu Zhou's gaze fell on the snake and he said impatiently, "Well, hurry up! Aren't you going to lock it up in the punishment room?"
Hearing this, the butler picked up the cage and prepared to leave the room.
"Wait a minute." Qiao Nian stepped closer to the cage and looked at the snake, which was curled up in an aggrieved ball. "Actually, it didn't do anything wrong. It was just guarding your study."
Gu Zhou looked at Qiao Nian with a complicated expression. His gaze fell on Qiao Nian's injured arm and he said very seriously, "But it bit you."
The man's voice was as deep as ever. There was no emotion in his voice.
