Chapter 396: Chapter 396: There’s a Snake

"Where’s that dumb fish?"

Duan Yiyi stood up from the water, completely soaked, looking for that fish, determined not to rest until she caught it.

However, that fish had long since escaped.

"Yiren, go get my knife. If I catch it, I’ll chop it to death."

Qin Yi broke out in a cold sweat.

Xia Yanbing laughed and said, "Yiren, Yiyi, you two better come up, your clothes are all soaked, don’t catch a cold."

"No way, I must catch that fish."

"Sister Yiyi, come on up, don’t fall again," Qin Wan’er urged.

The funny thing was, it was summer and she was already dressed lightly, now soaked to the skin, her curves were entirely revealed. Even Qin Yi couldn’t help but feel his nose heat up.

So young, yet so well-developed. Indeed, children of wealthy families are well-nourished. The best part is that all this nourishment is in the right places.

"There’s a snake in the water!" Qin Yi suddenly shouted.

Duan Yiyi and Liu Yiren were scared, screaming as they ran towards the shore.

Although they were both Qi Refiners, they were girls and were afraid of soft and slippery creatures like snakes.

Liu Yiren hopped to the shore.

However, Duan Yiyi froze, standing there stiffly, with a pained expression on her face.

"Wah..."

Duan Yiyi suddenly burst into tears, startling everyone.

"I was bitten by a snake," Duan Yiyi cried.

Qin Yi rolled his eyes, "I was just kidding, there’s no snake."

"There is, it’s biting my foot and won’t let go," Duan Yiyi sobbed, tears streaming.

Qin Yi was slightly stunned, could it be such a coincidence? Was there really a snake?

"Lift your foot so I can take a look."

"Boo hoo... I’m afraid. Is the snake venomous? Am I going to die?"

Qin Yi was speechless, but he said, "Don’t worry, even if you were bitten by the most poisonous thing in the world, as long as I’m here, you won’t die."

"But... I’m scared to move, it’s biting my foot, little hubby, save me..." Duan Yiyi must have been really scared.

"Qin Yi, help Yiyi!" Xia Yanbing looked worried.

Qin Yi raised his hand, and a strong suction pulled Duan Yiyi from the water.

However, when everyone saw the ’snake’ biting Yiyi’s small, fair foot, they were both amused and annoyed.

It was not a snake at all but a little crayfish, pinching Yiyi’s pinky toe with its claw.

"Little hubby, help, get the snake off..." Yiyi whimpered without daring to look.

Qin Wan’er stepped forward to comfort her, "Sister Yiyi, don’t be afraid. It’s not a snake; it’s a crayfish."

"Crayfish?" Yiyi was shocked and looked down, and sure enough, it was. She shook her foot, trying to shake it off.

But the crayfish was quite stubborn, clamping Yiyi’s toe tightly and refusing to let go.

"Little hubby, please help me get it off, it hurts!"

"Don’t move!" Qin Yi approached and gave a gentle pinch, and the crayfish, feeling the pain, let go of its claw and was removed.

"This crayfish seems to be farm-raised. How did it end up in this river?" Qin Yi observed the little crayfish in his hand, mumbling.

Xia Yanbing’s eyes flickered slightly, "Hubby, how do you know it’s farm-raised?"

"Look, this crayfish is big, but its underbelly is slightly blue, and its shell isn’t hard, obviously farm-raised."

Xia Yanbing came over, her beautiful eyes staring at Qin Yi, "But it looks dark red to me, just like the crayfish I eat."

Qin Yi held the crayfish up to the sunlight, "If you look this way, can’t you see the blue on its belly? I suspect this crayfish was left behind by people who came here to barbeque like us."

This time, the women all stared at Qin Yi without speaking.

Xia Yanbing was a bit agitated, slowly extending one finger, "Hubby, how many is this?"

"One, do you think I’m stupid?" Qin Yi replied grumpily.

However, the women were all staring intently at him, not speaking.

Qin Yi felt something was off, "Why are you all looking at me like that?"

"Brother, you can see?" Qin Wan’er asked in shock.

Qin Yi was slightly stunned, then he laughed, "Yes! My vision returned a few days ago. Didn’t I tell you?"

"When did your vision return? How come I didn’t know?" Liu Yiren asked in surprise.

Qin Yi thought for a moment, "About a week ago? I forgot to tell you, sorry!"

Excited and thrilled, Xia Yanbing said, "Forgot? Such a big deal, and you say you forgot? You had us worried all the time."

"I think he did it on purpose," Lin Hongzhuang said angrily.

Qin Yi replied, "What’s there to do on purpose? Honestly, I’m used to being blind, and losing and gaining sight doesn’t make much of a difference to me. I genuinely forgot to tell you."

"Hmph, I don’t believe you! If you’d told us earlier, could you have watched Yiyi and Yiren’s wet look? You seem to have bad intentions," Lin Hongzhuang said disdainfully.

Liu Yiren crossed her arms protectively.

Duan Yiyi, on the other hand, puffed out her chest. Anyway, it’s Qin Yi looking, if he likes to watch, let him, even touch if he wants.

Three black lines appeared on Qin Yi’s forehead, as he glared at Lin Hongzhuang, "Don’t think everyone is as filthy-minded as you, okay? I really forgot."

"Tsk, who believes you? Definitely up to no good."

Qin Yi couldn’t be bothered to argue, looking at Xia Yanbing, "Xiaobing, I honestly wasn’t intentionally hiding it..."

Qin Yi hadn’t finished his sentence when his expression suddenly changed, turning sharply.

The several women followed Qin Yi’s gaze.

Unbeknownst to them, in front of the grill stood a woman in a maroon robe, with enduring charm.

Her exact age was unclear, but she exuded an aura that demanded respect, holding two skewers of meat, flipping them on the grill.

"Who is this? Such rudeness!" Lin Hongzhuang frowned.

Qin Yi gestured for the women not to act rashly.

This place was desolate, and the sudden appearance of a woman was suspicious. Moreover, being able to approach the grill less than fifty meters from him without being noticed meant she was no ordinary person.

"Qin Yi, what’s wrong?" Xia Yanbing noticed something was amiss with Qin Yi’s face.

Qin Yi said seriously, "This person is not ordinary."

"Stay here, I’ll go take a look. Yiyi, Yiren, protect everyone."

"Hubby, be careful!" Xia Yanbing was a bit nervous. If even Qin Yi said the person was unusual, they must be someone important.

Qin Yi nodded and stepped towards the woman.

The woman with the enduring charm looked up at Qin Yi and smiled slightly. It was clear that when she was younger, she must have been an absolute beauty.

"Isn’t it rude to quietly use other people’s things like this?" Qin Yi said with a smile, but his eyes glanced towards the charcoal in the stove, slightly narrowing.

Judging by the time, the charcoal shouldn’t have burned to this state, now fully charred and glowing red, indicating it was done by someone.
