After dealing with the poison in Silver Cloud’s body, Ye Ningyuan realized that Xunuo was gone. He panicked and asked Xu Xing to stay behind to take care of Silver Cloud while he rushed back to the mountain, only to see her lying unconscious under an old tree. Her face was extremely pale. He called her name several times, but An Xunuo didn’t respond. He thought that she might have been bitten by the snakes as well, so he checked her body for wounds. Fortunately, there was no sign of snake bites. He then brought her back to take a rest.
He didn’t know why An Xunuo fainted, or why the snakes disappeared once she whistled. How did she manage to control those poisonous creatures?
To be honest, he didn’t want to know why.
Ye Ningyuan’s heart calmed down gradually upon looking at her pale face. An Xunuo would never know how nervous he was earlier on. He was really scared that the snakes would swallow her alive.
Seeing her lying motionless on the ground, his heart almost stopped. This made him realize how scared he was. He didn’t even dare to check for her breath for fear of any accident. Fortunately, he could feel her shallow breath when he carried her in his arms. Although her body was cold, nothing was more important than the fact that she was still alive.
“Ningyuan, is she okay?” Xu Xing’s face was still pale, but she had become stronger. She stopped crying and had taken good care of Silver Cloud. Although Xu Xing didn’t like her, she was very flustered when she heard that An Xunuo had met with an accident. Xu Xing didn’t want anything to happen to her as An Xunuo had saved them, after all.
“She’s okay.” He had returned to his calm state. “Take care of Silver Cloud properly. I’ll go find some herbs in the mountains. He is not completely detoxified yet.”
“Be careful.”
Ye Ningyuan didn’t know much about snake venom. Fortunately, there was a lot of information about it in Xu Nuo’s room. There was also a letter in which the solutions of all kinds of snake venom were recorded in detail. All the herbs could be found in the mountains.
The letter was something new that he had just found. He could only suppress the snake venom in Silver Cloud for the time being. If he wanted to detoxify him, he still needed the herbs to make medicine. He had looked around in Xu Nuo’s room in hopes to find related books. After the reconstruction of the mansion, he had put all the things back at their original place, and they were rarely touched. He found the letter in a pile of books. The handwriting looked childish but neat. It should be the handwriting of Xu Nuo when she was young.
He was reminded of how much Xu Nuo liked those small poisonous creatures and how she used to scare him with them.
According to the records in her letter, he found several herbs in the mountains and cut them up before putting them on Silver Cloud’s wounds. He also asked Xu Xing to cook a bowl of medicine for him. Within two hours, Silver Cloud broke out in a sweat. His darkened face finally turned fair again. Although his face was pale, the snake venom was finally treated.
…
An Xunuo slept until midnight. She felt a tall figure standing beside the bed. She had gone into a trance and the last thing she remembered was the snakes that wrapped around her body. After that, some blurry images flashed by before she fell into a coma.
“Silver Cloud?” She narrowed her eyes. She didn’t feel any discomfort, but she was tired. It seemed that the snake didn’t bite her. Xunuo got up. She could not see Silver Cloud’s expression clearly in the dark. “What are you doing here?”
Silver Cloud looked at her pale face in silence. He had intentionally attracted the snakes out today. He didn’t worry about her being hurt as he had a way to protect Xu Xing. He just wanted to prove one thing.
He wanted to know if An Xunuo was Xu Nuo.
In the end, as he had expected, she was able to drive away the snakes.
Many people on the island knew that Xu Nuo liked to keep those small poisonous creatures in the mountains then. That was why nobody dared to provoke her. Those poisonous creatures were her most loyal guardians. They wouldn’t bite anyone at will and would only listen to Xu Nuo’s command. Nobody could mimic her whistle no matter how hard they tried.
She was a special snake trainer.
He had only seen the snakes dancing all over the mountains once. It was quite unforgettable.
“Why?” Silver Cloud asked her in a calm voice. For so many years, he had thought that she was dead. An Xunuo, Xu Nuo… He could almost confirm that they were the same person. However, he didn’t know why her body seemed different. He had always felt that she was familiar and that she was full of secrets. But, he didn’t expect that this was her secret.
“What did you say!?”
“You are Xu Nuo, aren’t you? Why are you denying that Xu Xing is your sister? Why are you keeping it from us?”
As if she had heard something funny, An Xunuo looked at him incredulously. “Crazy.”
Silver Cloud merely looked at her in silence. The moment of confusion and self-mockery did not escape his eyes. Anything could be deceiving, except for one’s gaze. One’s gaze could reveal one’s real thoughts.
She wasn’t pretending. She really didn’t know what he was talking about.
Silver Cloud was lost as well.
Everything became confusing and mysterious. An Xunuo asked him what happened, and Silver Cloud told her everything. He told her about Xu Nuo’s childhood, the iron gate, the snake swarm, and the white camellias. Everything. He noticed the change in her facial expression as he spoke, but he could see nothing but peace and calmness.
“Silver Cloud, you are so stupid. I don’t know what you are talking about, but I can tell you honestly that everything is just your illusion,” An Xunuo said calmly. “Although I have been in a vegetative state for several years, I remember the pain that I felt during the accident that happened when I was a child. I also remember my dad’s nervous expression and how he had talked to me every day when I was in a coma. I heard them all. If I were the person you mentioned, there should be a clear difference in time. Although I don’t quite remember my mommy, I remember my father and how much he loved me. Don’t do such stupid things in the future. It’s okay if you want to die. Don’t drag Xu Xing along.”
Silver Cloud frowned again and said nothing more. She left her room and went back to his mansion. Xu Xing was standing in the moonlight, looking at him. With a faint smile, she asked, “Where have you been?”
“I was at Xunuo’s,” Silver Cloud said. “She saved our lives today, so I went to thank her.”
Xu Xing looked down and nodded. She seemed downcast.
Silver Cloud went over and stroked the wrinkles between her eyebrows with his slightly trembling fingers. He was reminded of the dangerous moment earlier on. If he had placed his bets wrongly and An Xunuo could not get rid of the snakes…
Xu Xing would…
A stream of pain flowed into his heart. Suddenly, he reached out to hold her in his arms. “Xing Xing, I’m sorry. I’m really sorry. This won’t happen again in the future.”
