When Beauty Meets Beasts-Chapter 849 Harming Herself
Huanhuan let him go.
How could Clement be willing to leave?!
He clung to his mother's ankle and refused to let go.
Huanhuan couldn't tear him away, so she let him pester her. However, she stopped talking to him. At dinner that night, she didn't give him food unlike usual.
She picked up food for Bai Di, Shuang Yun, and Sang Ye, but she didn't feed him.
Clement looked at her eagerly.
Huanhuan pretended not to see him and ate.
It wasn't that he couldn't eat by himself. If he really ate, he could eat the entire table.
But his mother ignored him. No matter how delicious the food was, it couldn't arouse his appetite.
He leaned weakly on the table. "Hiss~"
'Mom, don't ignore me…'
The rest of the family noticed the strange atmosphere between Huanhuan and Clement.
After dinner, Bai Di, Sang Ye, and Xue Ling learned what had happened from Shuang Yun.
Bai Di said, "Clement needs to be taught not to bite people. Huanhuan is teaching him a lesson."
Although Sang Ye did not like Clement, he was still his son. Hearing outsiders say that about his son, he could not help but defend Clement. "Clement is still a child."
Xue Ling smiled faintly. "Not only is he a child, but he's also a child who can swallow living people when he opens his mouth."
Sang Ye: "…"
He was not good with words to begin with. When it came to Xue Ling, who was eloquent, he became even worse at talking.
Shuang Yun touched the healed wound. "Don't worry, Huanhuan's heart aches for Clement. She definitely won't make things especially difficult for him. Perhaps they'll reconcile tomorrow morning."
He was indeed unhappy about being bitten, but Clement was still a child. He would not argue with a child.
That night, Huanhuan slept with Shuang Yun.
Clement tried to slither under her blanket, but she grabbed him and threw him out of the room.
There were no locks in this world, so she had specially gotten someone to make a wooden bolt for the door.
She pulled the wooden bolt and pushed Clement out. She refused to open the door after closing it and entering the room.
He wanted to bite the door with his teeth like last time.
He'd only taken two bites when Bai Di noticed her.
Bai Di picked him up and handed him to Sang Ye.
"Watch your son carefully. Don't let him disturb Huanhuan's rest."
Once Clement got into Sang Ye's hands, he began to struggle desperately.
Sang Ye looked at him coldly. "You've already made your mother angry, yet you're still disturbing her rest. Are you planning to completely fall out with her?"
Clement said, "Hiss!"
'I won't disturb Mom's rest. I just want to stay with her!'
Sang Ye said, "Your mother is angry when she sees you now. As long as you appear in front of her, she definitely won't be able to rest well."
Clement said, "Hiss, hiss, hiss!"
'I don't care, I don't care! I want to be with Mom!'
Sang Ye brought him in front of him. "Don't cause trouble for your mother. This will only make her hate you more and more."
The two things that Clement was most afraid of were going hungry and his mother ignoring him.
His mother was already ignoring him now. If she hated him, he would definitely feel worse than death.
He twisted. "Hiss."
'What should I do to make Mom forgive me?'
"Stay here and don't disturb her rest. Apologize to her tomorrow morning."
Although Clement still did not like the piece of meat in front of him, the only person who could understand him now was Sang Ye.
In order to obtain his mother's forgiveness, he could only listen to Sang Ye.
When Shuang Yun woke up the next morning, he had just pulled open the door when he saw a little black snake lying outside.
Clement raised his head and flicked out his snake tongue. "Hiss."
Shuang Yun asked, "Are you looking for your mother?"
Clement nodded.
Shuang Yun pointed behind him. "She's still asleep. Do you want to come in?"
Clement hesitated, but in the end, he did not enter. Instead, he continued to lie at the door.
It was rare to see him so obedient. Shuang Yun was surprised.
After he went out, he deliberately left the door open a crack.
Clement stuck his head through the crack in the door and looked eagerly at his mother, who was still asleep.
When Huanhuan woke up, the sky was already bright.
She got up and got dressed. She yawned as she walked out. As soon as she stepped across the threshold, she stepped on something slippery!
She retreated in fear.
Huanhuan looked down and realized that Clement was lying on the ground. She had stepped on him just now.
She quickly bent down and picked him up to examine his body. "Why are you lying in front of the door? I didn't notice you just now and accidentally stepped on you. I'm sorry. Are you hurt? Does your body hurt?"
Although Clement was smaller, he was still a heaven-devouring python. How could he be injured by her light step?
But when he saw that his mother was anxious, he had an idea and took the opportunity to fall into her arms, looking weak.
Seeing this, Huanhuan thought that he was seriously injured and became even more nervous.
She carried Clement into the room and gently placed him on the bed. "I'll make you some medicine. Wait for me here."
After Huanhuan left, Clement immediately opened his eyes and rolled around under the blanket.
The blanket was still warm from his mother. It was especially comfortable!
Huanhuan walked into the kitchen and rolled up her sleeves to brew the medicine.
Bai Di, who was making breakfast, saw her and immediately asked, "What are you doing?"
"I stepped on CLement and hurt him. I want to make him some medicine."
Bai Di was surprised. "You managed to hurt Clement?"
Huanhuan asked, "Clement is so small. Isn't it normal for him to be injured after I stepped on him?"
"Don't forget that he's a heaven-devouring python. With his body, he might not be injured even if you cut him with a knife, let alone step on him."
Huanhuan was still very hesitant. "But he looked very uncomfortable just now…"
"It's a ruse of self-injury. Shuang Yun often uses it. Why do you still fail to recognize it?"
"I don't think so. He's just a child. Why would he be so scheming?"
Bai Di smiled but said nothing. He went back to work on breakfast.
Huanhuan returned to the room with the brewed medicine. At this moment, Clement was lying motionless on the bed. He looked very weak.
"Clement, get up and drink the medicine."
Clement looked up weakly and opened his mouth.
He assumed a feeding posture.
Huanhuan placed the bowl in front of him. "Drink it yourself."
He looked at her with tears in his eyes.
Huanhuan said, "Are you still pretending to be pitiful?"
Clement put on an innocent expression that said, 'I don't know anything.'
Huanhuan pinched the tip of his tail. "Are you still pretending with me?"
She had more or less figured out that this little guy was definitely tricking her.
Seeing that pretending to be pitiful was no longer useful, he could only obediently get up and stick his head into the bowl to take a sip of medicine.
How bitter!
He was about to stop drinking when he heard his mother say, "If you don't finish this bowl of medicine, don't even think about touching me again."
Clement: "…"
What else could he do?
He could only drink it.
