Shen Nianmo suddenly lunged forward and moved very quickly towards the snakes.
Gu Xijiu was shocked by his sudden move. Quickly, she pulled his clothes and dragged him back forcefully. "Are you looking for death? All these snakes are extremely venomous. Once bitten by any of them, you will die almost instantly."
It was a child's behavior to act impulsively. The young were usually fearless.
Shen Nianmo looked at her fixedly. "Are you worried that I might die?"
Gu Xijiu thought that the question was rather odd. She was certainly worried. If he died, her mission would be considered as a failure.
Apart from the mission, she really liked the child, so she would not have the heart to watch him die in vain.
She could not tell him the truth, so she sighed in a helpless tone. "You are the only precious child to your parents. If anything happens to you, your parents will hunt me down."
