Snake Tangled Three Dreams

Chapter 17 Offended Him
No matter what the Bai family owes him, the one who pays the debt is destined to be me.

But at least let me figure out, what exactly did I lose my life for?

With the towel on my head and water still dripping from the tip of my hair, I grabbed one of Liu Wangzhi's hands and rubbed the top of my head with one hand, and said casually, "Why don't you ask your father about this matter? "

I was busy arguing just now, and indeed I forgot to ask him, so since Liu Wangzhi is there, wouldn't it be the same to ask him?
"I just want to ask you, do you want to tell me?" The weather was bad, and I was in a bad mood, and my tone of voice was not much better.

"Don't ask me, just ask your dad." Liu Wangzhi glanced at me, pulled off the towel and threw it on me, "Wipe it yourself."

After he finished speaking, he stood up, went to the window and pushed it open, looking at the rainy scene outside the window with his back turned to me, obviously unwilling to communicate with me again.

I wisely stopped disturbing him, wiped my face, turned around and went to the bathroom to change.

After drying my hair, I washed my wet clothes. As soon as I got back to my room, Mengyue came in and asked us to eat.

It may be that the conversation with me just now delayed the time. My dad made dinner later than usual today.

When I sat down in the restaurant, I saw that the table was not only full of big fish and meat, but also several jars of rice wine.

"Father, it seems that today is not a holiday. Why are the dishes prepared so well?" Mengyue found something different just as she sat down, and as she said this, her chopsticks had already been stretched out.

"There are still guests at home. She came to see your sister specially, so she can't treat her badly."

While talking, my dad took two glasses and poured wine, with a warm and generous smile on his face, which was completely different from the way I was arguing in the woodshed.

I sat on the side and looked at the table full of delicious dishes, but my heart was like beating a drum, "dong dong" kept beating.

Abnormal, this is abnormal.

Not long ago, my dad was acting ruthless, but now he entertains Liu Wangzhi in a blink of an eye, this is the opposite, there must be something wrong.

The poured rice wine was pushed in front of Liu Juanzhi, my dad sat back on his seat, picked up the cup in front of him and said with a smile, "Come on, Xiao Liu, I haven't talked to you properly for so many days, today uncle respects you One cup, thank you for taking care of our family Ting Yue."

The word "thank you" was deliberately bitten a little harder, and my dad's back was straightened, but the hand that raised the wine glass was shaking slightly.

I squinted at the wine glass in front of Liu Juzhi, and saw that the rice wine was pure in color, without any impurities, and it didn't look like there was any problem.

At this time, a gust of wind came in from the door, just passed by Liu Wangzhi, the smell of rain and vegetation scattered, and in the humid air, there was a faint and unusual smell mixed in.

I caught it keenly, and felt that the smell was very familiar. I sniffed it a few more times, and finally confirmed that the smell came from the wine, and it was the realgar used to repel snakes every year during the Dragon Boat Festival!
Liu Wangzhi raised his eyes and looked at my dad indifferently. He probably stretched out his hand not to hit the smiling face. He picked up the glass of rice wine in front of him without saying a word, and said to him, "Okay, thank you." Uncle' this glass of wine."

His "Uncle" was icy and cold, as if he wanted to chew the words into pieces.

I was sitting on pins and needles by the side, digging my nails into the palm of my hand, watching him bring the glass of rice wine mixed with realgar to his mouth, all kinds of thoughts quickly rolled in my heart, at the moment when the edge of the glass touched his lips , I suddenly stretched out my hand in front of him, and squeezed his hand holding the wine glass.

"Don't drink!"

With a pale face, I squeezed the glass, took the glass of rice wine out of his hand, and placed it in front of myself.

Liu Wangzhi's hand still stayed where it was, glanced at me with slightly slanted beautiful eyes, and quietly rubbed the wine stains left on his fingertips.

"Boom!" My dad slammed the table hard and growled, "Bai Tingyue, what are you doing! Do you have any parenting rules!"

The stepmother sneered, and looked at me with a smile that was not a smile: "Oh, this has never passed through the door of others, so they are in charge of others, and they are not even allowed to drink wine?"

I know exactly why my dad was angry, but since he didn't expose it face to face, he must not want to turn his face at this juncture.

I swallowed, turned my head to meet my dad's gaze, and said in a trembling voice, "Dad, he doesn't usually drink much, if you want to drink, I'll accompany you."

These words are almost like saying that he doesn't know how to drink, coupled with this act of blocking alcohol, Liu Wangzhi turned his head to look at me, and raised his eyebrows meaningfully.

"Nonsense!" My dad blushed with anger, and pointed at me angrily, "You girl, what the hell are you trying to do!"

Where did he ask about blocking the wine, he was clearly asking why I wanted to help this snake that was entangled in me.

I don't know why I stopped that glass of wine. When those thoughts rolled by, I only knew that he didn't hurt me, and I couldn't hurt him for nothing.

My dad was still pressing the fire, looking at me as if he said "I hate iron but can't make steel".

I didn't feel ashamed, and was about to speak, when a hand with strong bones suddenly reached out in front of me, and took away the cup of rice wine that caused trouble.

"Alright, Tingyue, it's just a glass of wine." Liu Juanzhi shook the glass lightly, and lightly hooked the corner of his lower lip, "I accept this kindness, but if someone regrets it in the future and wants to kneel down and kowtow to beg me, then no It must be useful."

"Don't... Liu Wangzhi!"

I just wanted to stop him, but Liu Wangzhi raised his hand and raised his head, rolled his Adam's apple, and drank the rice wine mixed with realgar in one gulp.

The slender fingers loosened slightly, and the glass fell to the ground and shattered.

Liu Wangzhi stood up and walked out the door, exuding a sense of indifference and alienation, when he stepped out of the threshold, he suddenly stopped, with his chin slightly sideways, and coldly dropped a few words: "You can do it yourself. "

After all, it turned into a wisp of smoke in front of everyone, and disappeared in the torrential rain outside the door.

The stepmother screamed immediately, trembling with her arms around Mengyue.

My dad looked out the door with a dark face, and with a "crash", he swept the jar of rice wine on the ground.

The moment the wine jar landed on the ground, a large amount of white foam appeared in the splashing wine, and the sound of "zilazila" sounded in the frozen air, which was a bit shocking.

"What's the smell?" I walked over to look at the fragments on the ground, and unexpectedly smelled a pungent smell. What?"

My dad looked at the ground in the direction of my finger, his expression was a little numb: "What else can I have, rat poison, snake repellent, and Huangfuhua water."

My heart sank, as if a stone had been crushed, and I couldn't breathe: "Are you crazy? Do you really want him to die!"

My dad's eyes became very weird at once. He seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly stood up with the table, and said solemnly: "You reminded me, those snakes around the house back then were not afraid of these things, for sure There is no way to take a black snake!"

He pulled out an umbrella and stuffed it into my hand, and hurriedly pushed me outside the door: "Go, go find Granny Mei!"

I staggered in the rain with my umbrella in my arms, facing the slanting rain, I turned my head and asked him, "What are you doing with Granny Mei?"

My dad stood by the outer door, his hand holding the door frame was trembling: "We offended that snake, and he will definitely take revenge on us! Now only Grandma Mei can help us, you go to her and come over and find a solution!"
