TBoSP Chapter 8 - Bitten by a snake
She had no choice but to avoid Daddy and Mummy's gaze and secretly bring food below the table for the snake to enjoy.
Just when the snake almost had his fill, Mu Zhen Lin and Xia Tong looked at each other at the same time, as though coming to the same terms before turning back to look at their daughter.
"Chun Chun, your Mummy and Daddy have something we wish to discuss with you..."
"What is it?"
Her mood is exceptionally good today. Even today's dinner smells much fragrant than before.
"It's about your engagement with Ran Chen... Daddy and Mummy both discussed about this, and we've come to an agreement that we are in the wrong in this case. Just because we adults have agreed on the engagement, we do not have the right to decide your happiness for you. However, this engagement has already been agreed to by both sides, Daddy too has no other option. How about this then? Let's wait till Ran Chen comes back. Date him first. If you two are not compatible, then we'll forget about the engagement. What do you think?"
After a long thought, this matter really has no other way about it.
Listening to her Daddy's word, Mu Tang Chun blinked in disbelief. She looked down. No one knew what she's thinking now.
The "bracelet" suddenly coiled even tighter, causing her to wince in pain. She frowned and looked down to check on her wrist. Didn't he had his fill of food?! Why did that snake bite her? *sobs* It hurts! What if this snake is venomous?! Did she get poisoned?!
Despite all that, the biting snake did not have the slightest guilt at all in doing so. Moreover, he stared at her coldly. This woman... She actually has a fiancee! You deserve this! As soon as he heard the word "fiancee", he could not control his impulse and thus, he bit her angrily. This action of his is merely a spontaneous reaction.
(TL: Whoa whoa author-sensei, they just met! You have almost 100 chapters to establish this, you know!)
For some reason, looking into the snake's terrifying glare gave her a guilty conscience.
"Chun Chun, are you listening to me?"
Seeing how his daughter has kept her head down all the while and never replied him, Mu Zhen Lin felt strange.
"Ah?"
She looked up all of a sudden, snapped back to reality by her father's words. Due to the snake biting her wrist, she almost forgot what her Daddy said to her. d.a.m.ned snake.
"Do you agree with what I've just said?"
"Of course!"
She hesitated for a second, before nodding anyway. Mu Tang Chun understood how hard this is for her father. But it's all right, even if she date the unknown, masked fiancee of hers, she could still make him suffer. She will then weep in sorrow to cancel their engagement. As she imagined the happy ending scene in her head, Mu Tang Chun almost gave a hearty laugh without a thought about giving face to this ex-fiancee of hers.
(TL: Ohhhhh dear. I think you'll come across "giving face" in many Chinese novels. It basically means letting the other party look good in public situations, saying or doing things that wouldn't make them look bad and embara.s.sing. Here, Tang Chun is basically saying she doesn't give two cents about what others may think about her ex-fiancee once the engagement is cancelled. "Giving face" is something polite you do. Not "giving face" is usually a jerk's move, but I like doing this to people who don't deserve it.)
Nevertheless, her jubilant mood did not last long as a stinging pain came from her wrist again. She winced and let out a soft "Ah!".
"Chun Chun, what's wrong?"
Mu Zhen Lin and Xia Tong asked worriedly at the same time.
"I'm... I'm fine! I just accidentally kicked the table, so my foot hurts a little!"
Mu Tang Chun said with a pained expression. *sobs* It hurts a lot! Just why did this d.a.m.ned snake took such a large bite?! I didn't even do anything to him! Why is he doing this to me!
Although her wrist hurts a lot, she put on a strong front and withdrew her tears obediently. *sobs* I'm so pitiful!
Mu Tang Chun didn't know, the truth is... The snake bit her because he overheard her agreeing to her Daddy about the engagement. This woman actually dared to date another man! Without a second thought, Su Fei Yue then bit her once more.
"Look at how careless you are! Be careful next time! Come, let me see your foot!"
Xia Tong loved her daughter the most. She is most afraid if anything untoward happened to her.
"Mummy, don't worry. I'm fine now. It doesn't hurt anymore! I'm... I'm full already! So I'm gonna head back to my room!"
Mu Tang Chun then ran upstairs with lightning speed under everyone's amazed stares.
