Chapter 344 Catch
Chapter 344 Catch
"I know, I know, there is a snake, but it has been caught. It's okay, it's really okay, don't worry anymore!" Li Jingcheng hugged her tightly as she shivered, and comforted her in a soft voice.
At this time, Xiao Miaomiao was still frightened and said in a trembling voice: "Li Jingcheng, I actually caught a snake with my own hands. It was so scary. At that moment, I felt like my heart was going to stop beating."
As she said this, she didn't even dare to look at her hands that had just caught the snake.
Li Jingcheng looked at her terrified and tearful appearance, his heart full of pity and self-blame. He said gently: "I'm sorry, Miaomiao, it's all my fault. I didn't take good care of the children, so you suffered such a fright."
Then, he gently patted Xiao Miaomiao's back and soothed her like he was coaxing a child: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. When we get back, I'll help you wash your hands and everything will be fine."
Li Jingcheng had never seen her cry so heartbrokenly. At this moment, his eyes were filled with endless heartache and reluctance.
At the same time, Zhang Jie had successfully captured the snake.
When he looked at the snake carefully, he found that its fangs were intact, which made him gasp and his fear was beyond words.
"According to common sense, there shouldn't be snakes in this place, not to mention that this is a snake species from the southeast tropical region." Zhang Jie frowned and muttered to himself with a worried look on his face.
If such a snake appeared by chance, it would be lucky, but if someone did it on purpose, it would be very dangerous, and no one could be sure whether it was the only snake lurking here.
This was a shocking event! Sunday was a good time for people to relax and go out for a stroll, so there were many people walking around the compound.
In such a noisy environment, this sudden change naturally attracted a lot of attention.
After a while, even the staff from the property management office came hurriedly.
When they saw the poisonous snake spitting out its tongue in Zhang Jie's hand, they were so scared that their faces turned pale and their whole bodies trembled.
They were secretly thankful that the poisonous snake had not hurt anyone, otherwise they, the property staff, would probably have to pack up and leave.
Especially when they heard that the poisonous snake was found from the young lady of the Li family, everyone was extremely terrified, with cold sweat on their foreheads.
After the manager of the property management office received the news, he immediately got on his small electric motorcycle and rushed to the scene at lightning speed.
As soon as they arrived, the manager apologized repeatedly: "I'm so sorry, sorry, sorry! This is entirely due to our negligence at work. We will definitely find out where this snake came from and how it appeared here!"
"Also, because this incident has frightened the little boy and Madam Li, we will come to apologize in person, please rest assured! We are so sorry." After saying this, the manager bowed deeply to Li Jingcheng with a guilty look on his face.
Li Jingcheng's face was as gloomy as water, his eyes were as cold as a knife, and he stared straight at the manager in front of him, and warned in a serious and majestic tone: "Forget it this time, but this must be the first and last time! If you can't guarantee that such things will not happen again, then pack up and leave as soon as possible, and others will take over your work."
"There will never be a next time! This is undoubtedly the last time!" The manager muttered to himself fearfully while wiping the beads of sweat from his forehead with his sleeve.
He knew very well that the people living in this compound were all rich or noble. If someone was unfortunately injured due to their negligence in property management, then being fired would probably be the lightest punishment.
Li Jingcheng stared at the still wriggling venomous snake, took a deep breath, and asked sternly, "Where on earth did this snake come from? Find out the truth immediately."
"Yes, yes, I'll check it out right away!" The manager nodded hurriedly in agreement, then reached out tremblingly to take the cage containing the poisonous snake.
However, at this moment, the poisonous snake in the cage suddenly twisted violently and hit the cage frantically, as if it would break out at any time.
The manager was so frightened by this sudden scene that his hands shook and the cage fell directly to the ground.
I saw the poisonous snake striking more and more violently in the cage, as if it would not give up until it achieved its goal.
The manager stood aside, his face pale, his legs weak, and he didn't dare to take another step forward to pick up the cage.
Just when the situation reached a stalemate, Zhang Jie quickly found two towels, walked forward carefully and covered the cage tightly, then signaled the manager to take the cage away quickly.
Li Jingcheng hugged Xiao Bao tightly in his arms, turned his head to look at Xiao Miaomiao who was beside him with a frightened face, and said softly: "Miaomiao, don't be afraid, let's go home first."
"Okay." Xiao Miaomiao couldn't help but burst into tears before. This crying seemed to release the emotions that had been pent up in her heart for a long time, and she felt much better.
However, when she tried to stand up, she found that her legs seemed to have lost their strength and were so soft that they could not support the weight of her body.
"I can't stand up." Xiao Miaomiao looked at Li Jingcheng with a face full of grievance, tears in her eyes.
"It's okay, don't worry, wait a moment." Li Jingcheng comforted him, and then handed the little treasure in his arms to Zhou Yi, and instructed: "Help push the child back."
"Okay." Zhou Yi responded, carefully took Xiaobao, and gently placed him on the stroller. Then, he took Dabao and Erbao from Grandpa Li, and gently and skillfully placed the two children on the stroller.
"Grandpa Li, do you need me to hold your hand and walk with you?" Zhou Yi looked at Grandpa Li with some concern and asked.
Grandpa Li smiled and waved his hands, saying, "I'm fine. I can help your grandma Li go back slowly. You just need to push Xiaobao and the others."
"Okay then." Zhou Yi nodded, turned around, bent down, picked up the toys scattered on the ground one by one, and handed them to Dabao and the others. Then, he firmly grasped the handle of the cart and slowly pushed the cart towards home.
Father Li looked at his mother and wife, full of worry, and quickly asked, "Are you all right? How about I go back and drive the car over to pick you up?"
"No need, we're fine, just take it easy. It would be best if this snake was an accident. If someone released it on purpose, I will skin him alive." Li's mother patted her chest and supported her mother and said.
