After she finished speaking, she did not look at him again and walked toward Bai Shao and Song Yun who were surrounded by the others.
Li Yan rubbed his head. Bai Xi’s words were a little strange. She was indeed comforting him, but he did not feel comfortable as usual.
As expected, she still felt that he was weak.
Li Yan sighed and encouraged himself in his heart.
The next time they were in danger, he must perform well and let Bai Xi know who the real man was!
Since they bravely fought against the python, the production team gave Bai Shao and Song Yun each some medicine for animal bites and a first aid kit for one person as reward.
Pythons were not poisonous, but their fangs were full of bacteria. This place was dirty, so if the wounds were not handled well, they might swell and fester.
While Bai Shao and Song Yun were bandaging their wounds, the others were praising the two of them and throwing glances at Fang Rong from time to time.
Fang Rong squatted on the ground, not minding the dirt at all. Her fingers moved down the snake’s head, all the way to its tail, her expression serious.
She had previously worked in a research institute for serpents, so she was very familiar with the structure and habits of snakes. Therefore, the abnormal python that should have retreated but did not had attracted her attention.
“This is a female snake that was pregnant before. Someone in our team took its eggs, which is why it was so persistent in attacking us.”
Fang Rong exuded the aura of a research institute director as she looked at everyone in front of her seriously. “Who’s hiding the snake eggs?
Bai Xi’s eyes flickered.
[Could it be Bai Xi again?]
[That’s right. She took something out of the crack of the stones earlier. It’s probably be snake eggs.]
[Everyone was hungry back then, right? She didn’t say anything about the snake eggs because she wanted to keep them to herself? In the end, the mother snake unexpectedly came for them and she caused her teammates to almost be eaten by the snake tonight.]
[Bai Xi is a jinx. On the surface, she pretends to be more innocent than anyone else, but all kinds of trouble and danger are caused by her!]
There was no response.
Fang Rong said, “This python is an extremely rare species of python that lives in groups. After it died, the other snakes would follow the smell and find us if the snake eggs and its scents are not covered up well.”
“This is only a female snake. A larger male snake is even more difficult to deal with. If the person who hides the snake eggs still doesn’t want to confess, there’s only one outcome—being surrounded and killed by pythons!”
It was hard for people to be serious with the previous light question, but everyone became nervous after Fang Rong clearly explained the dangers.
Li Yan frowned. “Let’s search the bags. Since that person is unwilling to admit it, we can only do this.”
Everyone understood the reason why the culprit did not want to admit it. The snake eggs were picked up during the day, and they were hungry at that time. That person did not choose to share the eggs, which was considered a betrayal to the team.
If the person was caught, their time in the team after this would not be great.
The others were honest and open. Bai Xi was the only one who was uneasy.
The eggs were in the small pocket of her backpack. If anyone found out, her image of being generous, kind, and selfless in the eyes of the public would completely collapse!
What should she do?
Bai Xi quickly thought of a solution. The others had already gone to search the bags, so she mixed in and searched with Song Yun.
Song Yun was holding her bag while she was holding Fang Rong’s bag.
The two of them were very close. Song Yun should have been ecstatic, but he kept feeling a little disgusted and could not get close to Bai Xi after tonight’s events.
He moved to the side, and Bai Xi followed him. Then, she naturally put her hand into the bag and held his hand. She pinched her voice and said in a pitiful and sad tone, “Xiao Yun, are you still angry with me?”
Bai Xi had never done heavy work, so her hand was very soft. Song Yun was dazed for a moment before he pursed his lips and answered, “No.”
Song Yun did not break free, so Bai Xi gave his hand a squeeze and released it. Without a sound, she grabbed the two snake eggs wrapped in paper at the bottom of the bag.
“Look into my eyes,” Bai Xi said, “Xiao Yun, I’m not trying to find any excuse. I was bitten by a snake when I was young, and I couldn’t move whenever I see a snake since then. It’s not that I didn’t want to help you, but I can’t.”
Her tears flowed down quickly and she sobbed, “It’s normal for you to blame me. If I were you, I’d hate me too. Why don’t you hit me to vent your anger?
Song Yun sighed. In the end, he still liked Bai Xi. He took his hand out of the backpack and focused on comforting her.
While Song Yun was consoling her, Bai Xi had also successfully taken out the snake eggs and put them into Fang Rongs bag..
