chapter 1655


    Chris gazed at Chloe nkly as she put the sulfur powder on her hands. She grabbed Chris'' hand and


    said, "Put some of this on, Chris. With this, the snakes won''te close to you and bite you."


    Chris gaped at her. "Alright, then..."


    Chloe ced some sulfur powder on Chris'' hand and bravely went up to the snakes’ cage, asking


    Chris, "Which one are you getting?"


    Unsure where to go off of, Chris answered, "Pick one that looks scary but isn’t as dangerous."


    Although they wanted the snake to attack, they should be careful and prevent the snake from hurting


    Anthony and Charmine.


    "Okay."


    Chloe nodded and adorably turned to look at the snakes, stretching out her small hand into the cage.


    The snakes opened their bloody jaws, a sight that triggered Chris'' anxiety.


    He feared that she would get bitten, the fear so great that his heart leaped to his throat.

    "Let me do it, Chloe!" he stopped her anxiously.


    Chloe, however, remained level-headed as she smiled at him, her adorable dimples surfacing on her


    cheeks. "Don''t worry, Chris. They won''t bite me."


    She thus put her hand inside the cage.


    What shocked Chris was that the snakes flinched from Chloe''s hand as she put her hand into their


    cage. They slithered to the side and, much like well-groomed pets, closed their jaws as they waited for


    Chloe to pick them.


    Chloe smiled and easily picked a two-centimeter-wide, two-meter-long snake. Meanwhile, the snake


    remainedpliant as it allowed Chloe to hold it as she pleased.


    Chris went wide-eyed at the sight, shocked for a good while before he finally reacted. "Are you not


    scared at all, Chloe?" "No." Chloe thought about it and said, "My Grandma raised them, you see.


    Sometimes when the vigers get tired, they''d have some snake soup. We''re all unafraid of snakes


    here."


    Chloe blinked her big eyes.


    The truth was...she lied.


    Everyone was afraid of the snakes here.


    Sure, the vige chief raised these snakes, but even she feared them. That was why she had some


    sulfur powder here.


    However, when Chloe was younger, she identally stumbled upon the area and countless snakes


    slithered toward her.


    At that point, she feared for her life.


    All of a sudden, Chloe realized the snakes stopped right before her, unmoving, not once lunging toward


    her. It was as if they had been domesticated, blinking at her before they slithered away.


    Since then, Chloe woulde to the cave from time to time. She even tried to touch them without


    sulfur powder, and they never attacked her.


    Nobody knew about this.


    The reason why she had Chris smear some sulfur powder on his hands was that she feared Chris


    would be weirded out.


    Chris did not overanalyze the situation. "Alright, let''s bring this fe, then," he spoke.


    "Yeah, let''s go."


    Chloe closed the cage and held the snake with one hand while the other reached out to hold Chris''.


    Chris gazed at his hand and felt useless.


    He ended up not catching the snake. He felt like a failure.


    The two of them returned to the tree. Chris looked over and saw Anthony lying down alone.


    Charmine, on the other hand...was still on her phone, working as if nobody was beside her.


    The sight mystified Chris.


    Charminepletely neglected Anthony!


    Chloe looked over and said, "Chris, do you want to release the snake now?"
