However, things were rather interesting. Madam Bai Zhou had asked Er Mo to take care of her, not because she was afraid that something would happen to her! This was much more interesting. Bai Zhengjun’s face revealed a trace of confusion as he asked, “Who caught the snake?”

“Of course, it’s the smart, adorable and handsome me!” Bai Weiyang said adorably.

“—!!”

Everyone was first disgusted by her silly smile, then shocked by the meaning of that sentence.

Surprise flashed across Bai Zhengjun’s eyes. “You can catch a snake?”

Bai Weiyang raised her eyebrows and shrugged her shoulders casually. She shook her head in disbelief and said softly,

“Could it be that Father can’t catch a snake? Even a child knows the principle of hitting a snake at its weak spot! ~ Then pull out its poisonous teeth and take out its poison sac! Could it be that Father doesn’t dare to catch a snake?”

She had a wicked smile on her face, as if she was teasing him.

Bai Zhengjun’s face instantly turned red. “Who said I don’t dare?”

Bai Weiyang pursed her lips and smiled warmly. She continued to drink the snake meat soup slowly!

Bai Qinglian glared at Bai Weiyang’s face and cursed in her heart. Damn it, how was that possible?! Could Bai Weiyang catch the Chinese green tree viper? Although Bai Qinglian didn’t believe it at all, she thought to herself that it might be because she was a fool that she didn’t know how terrifying a poisonous snake was that she dared to catch it so boldly. Her lack of intelligence had saved her life.

Bai Weiyang ate for an hour. After eating, she was dragged away by Er Mo to be measured and dressed! Er Mo said that she was about to get married. How could she not have a decent new wedding dress?

The wedding in a week’s time was a classic Chinese wedding according to Madam’s preferences. At that time, they would send eight people to carry a sedan chair for Bai Weiyang to marry into their family!

That day, Bai Weiyang was tormented by Er Mo.

In the evening.

Li Mengyun and Yang Minghua, who had been hiding near the Bai Residence, were dressed in casual clothes. They waited until evening, but did not see any movement from the Bai Residence. They could only stop a servant girl who went out to buy things.

They pretended to ask casually.

“May I ask what’s the matter with the Bai Family today?”

The maid looked at the silver yuan in her hand and scratched her head. “What can happen to the Bai Family? It’s still a peaceful day as usual.”

“Third Miss…” Yang Minghua thought hard, but he didn’t know how to shift the question to Bai Weiyang.

The maidservant said excitedly, “My Third Miss is about to marry the Military Governor! She even caught a snake last night.”

“Caught… a snake?”

The two of them watched as the little maidservant went into the sunset. Their expressions became a little ugly.

They failed the Military Governor’s order.

As night approached, the two of them could only return to the Military Governor’s Residence.

In the study.

A man in a green-gray military uniform stood with his hands clasped behind his back, holding a Marlboro cigarette.

When he saw Li Mengyun and Yang Minghua return, he asked calmly,

“How did it go?”

Adjutant Yang and Adjutant Li were embarrassed for a second. They looked at each other and saw the depression in each other’s eyes.

Finally, Adjutant Yang whispered,

“Sir, the target is not dead.”

His tone was cautious.

After all, they had always resolved the matters given by their commander in one go. Who knew that there would be a mistake this time?

Feng Songjie immediately turned around. His obscure eyes were half-closed, and his hawk-like eyes were very soul-stirring.

His gaze was dark and angry.

“You can’t even kill someone silently? Adjutant Yang, Adjutant Li, you two are getting more and more useless.”
