Su Rushi never expected that once the snake fell asleep, it would be like hibernation—it slept for a full three days before waking up.
And she had been anxiously watching over the snake for all three of those days.
Today was Tu Xiao'an's tenth day at Rushi Pavilion. Ten days had passed in a flash.
When Tu Xiao'an awoke, he immediately felt a distinct change in his body. He was no longer so fragile; his injuries were more than halfway healed. The last bit of old skin on his tail would probably be completely shed before long.
In other words, Tu Xiao'an's frustrating days were almost over.
A great Snake King, forced to act as a pet snake just to stay alive. While being taken care of felt pretty good, a little taste of it was more than enough.
He opened his snake eyes to a stunningly beautiful face filled with a plaintive resentment. Who else could it be but that gorgeous girl, Su Rushi?
