In the inn, the Snake Woman, having washed up and changed into a set of clean clothes, stood before Lin Feng, as beautiful as a nymph.
However, she was very bashful, hanging her head low, not daring to look at Lin Feng.
"What is your name?" Lin Feng asked.
"Zi... Ziyuan," the Snake Woman replied weakly.
"Do you still have any kin somewhere?" Lin Feng asked.
Smart as she was, Ziyuan quickly knelt on the ground upon hearing Lin Feng's question and pleaded, "Young Master, please don't send Ziyuan away. Ziyuan is willing to serve by your side!"
Lin Feng said, "Get up, I didn't say I was going to send you away."
Ziyuan did not rise, her voice choked with sobs, "Young Master asked if Ziyuan still has family—is it not because you want to send Ziyuan away?"
Lin Feng said, "That's not it; you're overthinking it. I was just concerned about you. Since you don't wish to talk about it, then don't. From now on, follow me."
