"As expected of our little princess. She's so pretty." Yan Xu's voice suddenly sounded in the living room.
"Brother!"
"Alright, alright, everyone's here, let's eat!" The gentle voice of their mother, Nie He, was filled with happiness.
"Little Jiaojiao, how long do you plan to stay at home this time?" Her older brother Yan Xu asked the same question as her father did the day before.
Before Yan Jiao could reply, Yan Xu continued, "You don't know this, but when you weren't around, the two of them talked about you day and night."
"When you weren't around, the two of them always treated me like air and ignored me. Now that you're back, they're going to ignore me."
"Aiya, now that I think about it, I'm really pitiful. My good sister, for the sake of your brother, you have to rest at home for a few days and spend some time with our parents. This way, when they are happy, they will be able to care about me, a poor soul. "
Yan Xu sighed and sat beside Yan Jiao, but his expression did not have the heartbreak that was articulated in his words. On the contrary, he winked at Yan Jiao.
Yan Jiao knew that although her brother said what he said, he did not have such thoughts at all. He was just saying it to make her happy, to let her know that this family was full of people who loved her.
However, when she thought about how she had been thinking about her parents day and night, Yan Jiao felt guilty. She looked at her parents in embarrassment. "I'm sorry, dad and mom..."
"This is the path you chose, and you've done well. I'm proud of you."
"Silly child, why are you apologizing? When a mother has such an outstanding daughter, she could only be proud. Alright, let's eat."
Yan Jiao looked at her family, and there was only a sweet feeling of happiness in her heart.
When she was young, Yan Jiao was sent to her grandmother's house to stay because her parents were busy with their careers. She was only brought back when the Yan family's business was stable.
At that time, Yan Jiao was already a slim and elegant little girl. She could not remember her childhood memories with her parents very clearly, so she felt a sense of alienation from the family, like an intimate stranger.
However, Yan Jiao knew that everyone in this family was truly good to her.
Breakfast ended in laughter. After breakfast, Yan Jiao contacted Tang Yi and asked him to come over to check on her body. She also asked him about her dream.
Soon, Tang Yi arrived and brought Yan Jiao to the infirmary in the Yan family villa, which was well equipped with medical equipment.
"Uncle Tang, I have something to tell you."
Tang Yi, who was checking Yan Jiao's body, raised his head and looked at Yan Jiao. "Go on, your Uncle Tang is listening."
"It's... It's just that I feel that there's something wrong with my body. " Yan Jiao stammered, not knowing how to tell Uncle Tang that she had sex with a snake in her dream.
"I've been dreaming these days. I've been entangled by a python, and I've had the same dream for several night in a row." Yan Jiao did not know how to describe it, so she chose to compromise.
"That python intrudes into my dreams daily. Uncle Tang, do I have a mental problem?"
After hearing this, Tang Yi examined Yan Jiao's body again.
"Jiaojiao, there's nothing wrong with your body. In fact, you're very healthy. As for what you said about being entangled with the same Python in your dreams, I think it might be because you're too focused on your archaeological work, and your nerves are always in a state of tension. It's caused by excessive stress."
"I guess I've been under too much pressure recently. Thank you, Uncle Tang. Goodbye. "
After sending Tang Yi off, Yan Jiao looked at the ring on her finger with mixed feelings.
She stood there in silence for a long time.
She was very healthy!
Yan Jiao's anxious heart slowly returned to its original state. She heaved a sigh of relief, thinking that this might be the best news of the day.
After that, Yan Jiao returned to her bedroom and went online to search for legends and ruins related to snakes, to see if she could find any information about to her ring.
The more Yan Jiao scoured the internet, the more fascinated she became. She gradually forgot the time, forgot herself, and threw everything to the back of her mind.
