The Beautiful Eldest Miss with Hidden Identities Get the City Astir - Chapter 24

Chapter 24: Bitten By Poisonous Snakes

“Miss, you’re finally back.”

The nanny, who had noticed the disappearance of her young mistress again, was anxiously looking for her. She immediately cried out in excitement when she saw Yu Shuya’s figure.

“Miss, are you alright? Why did you come back so late?”

Yu Shuya held the nanny’s arm and explained to her with a smile that she had met many rabbits and butterflies just now. After playing with them for a while, she forgot about the time.

She tried her best to describe the dense forest at the back of the mountain as interesting and harmless. She wanted the nanny to believe that there was no danger inside, and it was her paradise too. Only then the nanny would be at ease and allow her to enter the forest in the future.

As expected, when the nanny heard that her mistress had lost track of time because she was playing, she did not reprimand her anymore.

Looking at the rare smile on her young mistress’ face, as well as the fact that she had clearly become much livelier in the past few days, the nanny could not help but reflect on whether her young mistress had already grown up and she should not restrain her anymore.

After a day’s work, Yu Shuya laid nervously in bed.

She caressed the poisonous snake still wrapped around her arm and could not help but mutter in her heart.

“Dear snake, dear snake, my life depends on you today. You must not be so lazy later. Seeing that my life is about to end, you have to help me bite the bad guy.”

“Miss, what are you so happy about?”

The nanny looked at her young mistress who was tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. She patted her forehead.

Yu Shuya quickly closed her eyes. She softly said, “I am falling asleep.”

When she realized that the nanny was asleep, Yu Shuya opened her eyes.

She didn’t tell the nanny about the poisonous snake.

Firstly, the nanny would definitely be frightened by the snake. Secondly, the nanny would definitely not believe that there was such a type of poisonous snake in the world. She would definitely ask her to quickly throw it away.

Just as she was thinking about how the poisonous snake could understand human nature so well, Yu Shuya suddenly felt that her face was a little wet.

She turned her head and saw that the poisonous snake had unknowingly run to her pillow and even stuck out its tongue to lick her face.

“Poisonous snake, stop fooling around.”

Yu Shuya reprimanded the poisonous snake in a low voice, telling it that a girl’s face could not be licked casually.

“Of course, as a poisonous snake, your most basic job was to bite people, especially the bad people. So later on, you must show your fangs and bite the bad people,” Yu Shuya said to the snake.

Just as Yu Shuya was teaching the poisonous snake in a low voice, she suddenly felt a gust of cold wind blow past.

She was instantly shocked.

Although this room was dilapidated, the leak had long been fixed by the nanny. How could the cold wind suddenly blow into the room?

She slowly looked up and saw that half of the window had been opened.

Then, a red-clothed female ghost was looking through the window with her hair disheveled.

F*ck, it was the same trick again.

Even if Yu Shuya knew that the red-clothed female ghost was Master Yuzhi in disguise, she was still shocked when she saw this scene.

Seeing that the nanny had long fallen asleep and was still snoring, Yu Shuya felt that it was fortunate that Master Yuzhi did not have any intention of taking her life.

Otherwise, her move today might have really scared someone to death.

However, the nanny would be the one who lost her life, not her.

Yu Shuya covered her mouth. Seeing that the red-clothed female ghost was reaching out her hand with long red nails to grab her neck, she immediately put down her hand.

“Poisonous snake, go and bite her.”

Yu Shuya picked up the poisonous snake beside her pillow and threw it at the red-clothed female ghost.

However, the female ghost might have already seen the snake beside her pillow, so she was already on her guard.

When she saw the poisonous snake opening its mouth to bite, she immediately slapped it off her arm.

Perhaps it was because she hit the window too loudly, she woke up the nanny.

The nanny rubbed her eyes and looked at the young mistress with her eyes wide open. She quickly opened her mouth to ask.

“Young mistress, what’s wrong? Are you alright?”

Yu Shuya shook her head and pointed at the half-open window.

“Nanny, I opened the window just now because I felt a little hot. Now that I feel cold again, I want to close it.”

When the nanny heard this, she got up and was about to close the window. Yu Shuya immediately stopped her.

“Nanny, since I opened the window just now, I’ll close it then. You should hurry up and sleep.”

Seeing that there was no movement outside the window, Yu Shuya closed the window with a bang.

However, after lying on the bed, she closed her eyes but did not sleep. Instead, she touched the poisonous snake in her hand and pondered.

Why did Master Yuzhi run away immediately when she saw that the nanny was about to wake up?

It was obvious that she was not a person who killed people like weeds. Then, why did she only target her and intent on killing her?
