However, since he had already spoken, Gu Zhou couldn't go back on his words. He nodded, giving a faint murmur of assent.
Qiao Nian looked at Gu Zhou, overjoyed. She quickly said, "Thank you!"
In her excitement, Qiao Nian reached out to pet the snake a little too forcefully. Forgetting that she was injured, she accidentally bumped against the cage with her arm, right where she had been bitten. She inhaled sharply in pain, going pale in an instant.
Looking at Qiao Nian's wound, the snake lowered its head pitifully and rubbed gently against her arm.
Tugging on Qiao Nian's uninjured arm, Gu Zhou walked towards the door.
Qiao Nian looked at Gu Zhou's side profile in confusion. "Where are you taking me?"
"To bandage your wound."
Gu Zhou's voice was as pleasant as ever, but beneath his words lay an undercurrent of overbearing strength. It would not be easy to disobey anything that voice commanded.
