Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Perhaps Ruan Tianling had already abandoned the car and left.

Jian Yufei continued to move forward. Strangely, knowing that he was walking ahead made her feel less afraid, as if she had a companion in this pitch-black mountain.

However, she did not go far before she unwittingly stepped on a snake. The snake immediately raised its head and bit her on the leg.

“Ah” Jian Yufei screamed, her face blanching white, and she fell to the ground.

The snake, having sized her up for a few seconds, slowly slid away, disappearing into the underbrush.

She stayed still, paralyzed with fear, her small, palm-sized face devoid of any blood color.

In her life, this was the first time she had encountered a real snake!

And she had been bitten by it!

Jian Yufei felt as if all the blood in her body had frozen; she even forgot to breathe.

Only when the pain from the bite set in did she come back to her senses. She hurriedly pulled up her trouser leg and saw two reddish tooth marks on her fair skin.

Could this snake be venomous?

Jian Yufei could not bear it anymore, she broke down.

She shrieked, covering her face with both hands, and sobbed uncontrollably.

When Ruan Tianling reached her, he found her sitting on the ground, weeping disconsolately, barefoot, with one trouser leg rolled up.

The man’s brow furrowed slightly. There she was, hiding behind him!

He was still angry with her, and seeing her in such a miserable state only fueled his anger.

“Why are you crying?!” He grabbed her arm and abruptly helped her up.

This damn woman, who let her run around? Now why was she crying? Didn’t she seem capable and daredevil a moment ago?

How dare she cry now! If she had guts, she should stop crying!

Jian Yufei stared at him wide-eyed, taken aback at his rage. Miraculously, she was not scared at all.

Her teary and frightened eyes blindered, and a stream of tears rolled down her cheeks.

“Hiss” A sudden pain from the snakebite made Jian Yufei stagger and lean against Ruan Tianling.

The man noticed her discomfort, crouched down, and saw the snakebite on her lower leg.

The bitten area had turned blue, contrasting sharply with her fair skin, indicating a severe injury.

Ruan Tianling’s brow furrowed slightly. Without a word, he picked her up and headed towards the car.

Once he opened the car door and put her inside, he promptly took a towel, tied it tightly around her leg, and started squeezing the fresh blood out of the wound.

His grip was firm, causing Jian Yufei to clench her fists in pain, cold sweat soaking her forehead.

However, the wound was too small and no blood could be squeezed out.

He brought out a Swiss Army knife from the car, intending to make a cut on her leg.

“No!” Seeing the sharp, gleaming blade, Jian Yufei was terrified.

“No!” She shook her head desperately; her leg was tightly curled up. She was afraid of pain. Even getting a simple injection scared her, let alone having a knife on her body.

Ruan Tianling angrily grabbed her ankle once more, and noticed her filthy foot soles covered with various wounds.

The anger in him did not subside, and seeing her other injuries, he couldn’t help but reproach her, “I told you not to run so fast, you deserve this!”

“Get lost, I don’t need your help!” Jian Yufei immediately retorted. She stubbornly stared back, refusing to give him a chance to belittle her.

Damn, he was kind enough to save her, yet she showed no gratitude!
