My Demon Husband Is a Snake

"No way! Get lost just the way you came." Yu Rongling arrogantly declared.

I looked at Wei Yao, "Did you suddenly believe me because you saw me at Granny Wu's? Or is it because you found out that Yu Rongling is the Snake Immortal?"

"Both. Before, I was too blind to see Mount Tai and mistook you for a fraud." Wei Yao hung his head low, looking completely dejected, "The more I thought about it, the more I felt that you couldn't possibly be a fraud. It was too rash of me."

I exhaled softly and said in a low voice, "But I'm sorry, I don't want to help you. You should find someone else."

Having said that, I stepped into the restaurant.

The following two days.

Wei Yao tenaciously waited at the entrance of the restaurant.

Gone was his previously arrogant attitude, he humbled himself, begging me many times.

Although I have a soft heart, once I am resolved on something, I rarely change my mind, so I was basically unwavering.

That day, after finishing my meal.

Chen Decheng helped Chen Shufen up to rest.

After going downstairs, he sat in a chair and chain-smoked three cigarettes.

Watching his gloomy face, I had a vague idea of what was coming.

Sure enough, Chen Decheng asked to talk with me in a secluded corner, "Yuanyuan, if it were someone else, someone not Wei Yao, I wouldn't ask this of you."

I nodded. The boss clearly struggled with a lengthy inner conflict before he finally decided to approach me.

"I've known Wei Yao since we were in open-crotch pants. His adoptive parents used to be pig farmers in Spring Wind Town. They took him in when he was about twelve or thirteen." After finishing his cigarette, Chen Decheng reeked of smoke, making his whole demeanor seem even heavier, "Wei Yao, he doesn't remember anything before being sent to the orphanage. Actually, he is not content. With an able body and a clever mind, why would his birth parents be willing to abandon him at the orphanage? He also really doesn't understand why he has a gap in his memories. He desperately wants to know what exactly happened."

I remained silent, waiting for Chen Decheng to continue.

Chen Decheng sighed melancholically, "This obsession has driven Wei Yao all these years to try every means to find his birth parents. He has really suffered a lot, and that's why he developed such a suspicious nature. He found out that the name Yuanyuan is one I gave you, not a pseudonym you chose for yourself, and he feels extremely regretful. He has confessed his regrets to me many times. Yuanyuan, could you please do this for me, and help him?"

"I can." My response came almost without thinking, not out of a sudden surge of compassion.

It was from the moment the boss asked me that this answer was already destined.

Chen Decheng looked guilty, "I'm sorry, Yuanyuan, I..."

"It's nothing, this matter is just a small effort for me, but it is very important to you and Wei Yao."

I was speaking the truth, not merely to console him, "Tell Wei Yao to find me tomorrow. I will help him find his family."

Chen Decheng nodded, "Okay."

That night.

I contemplated for a bit.

Decided not to use the sachet, but to make a set of Kin-seeking Clothes instead.

The sachet could only find a rough location, but the Kin-seeking Clothes could create an image with blood, which is quite magical.

The next morning, I saw Wei Yao.

Wei Yao had been beaten up, his nose swollen and face bruised, his eyes turned into panda eyes.

I glanced sideways at Yu Rongling, "You beat someone up?"

"He had it coming, initially bullying you like that, and then cozying up when it suited him, pah." Yu Rongling glared at Wei Yao, and then sheepishly tried to explain to me.

I huffed, raising my eyebrows at Yu Rongling, "Oh? Isn't it that a certain Snake Immortal was initially bullying me and then later cozying up?"

"Heh heh, sister-in-law, I... I'm your dear little brother-in-law, how could this guy compare to me?" Yu Rongling immediately tried to ingratiate himself, half-kneeling to massage my leg and curry favor.
