The siblings turned their heads and looked inside the hall. Bai Zhi’er’s long lashes fluttered: "Huh? What’s all that commotion?" Bai Xuanmo narrowed his eyes and walked into the hall with Bai Zhi’er in his arms: "Brother will take you to check it out." As they entered, they saw Qingmei sitting on the ground, her eyes wide with fear. The little one exclaimed anxiously in a childish voice: "Sister Qingmei, what’s wrong with you!" Qingmei raised her trembling hand and pointed ahead. "There’s... there’s a bug..." Qingmei was supposed to tidy up the room for the Princess, so she took down the dress hanging on the screen. But as soon as she turned her head, she saw something that frightened her out of her wits. Bai Xuanmo frowned and, upon approaching, the siblings saw that there were two milky white insects on the bed curtain. They were not small in size and looked very familiar. Bai Zhi’er opened her small round mouth: "Oh~ it’s those bugs we forgot to return to Sun Sun that day, they’ve crawled out of the wallet." Bai Xuanmo glanced at Qingmei with a cold tone: "They’re just two bugs, why make such a fuss? What if you scare the Princess like this?" Realizing her blunder, Qingmei stood up pale-faced: "Forgive me, Young Master, I will be more careful in the future." Bai Zhi’er tugged on Bai Xuanmo’s sleeve, shaking her head and sighing. "Big brother, how can you talk to girls like that, it’s not right, which girl isn’t afraid of bugs?" With his sister, the coldness in Bai Xuanmo’s eyes subsided a bit, and a light smile appeared on his lips. "I see that Little Ball here isn’t scared, you were the one who boldly hid the bug when Ke Shouwang and I both had our eyes closed." No wonder he thought something tasted off that day. Bai Zhi’er smiled with her big eyes squinting: "Eating bugs is bad, it will make your stomach hurt. Mom said, you shouldn’t put everything in your mouth." Bai Xuanmo stepped forward and picked up the two bugs with his bare hands. The little girl quickly presented her wallet: "Brother, put them in here, don’t let them run around. I’ll take care of them, and when we see Sun Sun again, return them." "Raising these things?" Bai Xuanmo raised his eyebrows, a smile in his eyes. It seems his sister doesn’t know about the dangers of the Poisonous Insect. These two bugs, once they touch human skin, can use their sharp forelegs to burrow in under the skin in just a short moment. They can devour the internal organs, causing a person to bleed from the seven orifices and die. "Little Ball, these two bugs may seem small, but they bite. For safety’s sake, brother should keep them." Bai Xuanmo said, intending to put the bugs in his sleeve. Bai Zhi’er stopped him: "No way~ this belongs to Sun Sun, and if you don’t get along with him, what if you don’t give it back?" Bai Xuanmo raised his eyebrows. She really understands him. Poisonous Gu is hard to cultivate, Ke Shouwang must have put in a lot of effort. With Bai Xuanmo’s personality, he would definitely use this Poisonous Gu to have some fun with him. "You’ve seen right through me." Bai Xuanmo shook his head helplessly. Since Bai Zhi’er insisted on keeping them, he found a piece of cloth, wrapped the two bugs together, and put them back in the wallet. "Brother, you said that these bugs bite, so why didn’t they move on your hand?" Bai Zhi’er stood aside, her big, watery eyes filled with curiosity. Upon hearing this, Bai Xuanmo smiled lightly: "Because brother is more poisonous than they are. If they bite me, they’ll be the first ones to die." These creatures can really sense the aura. Bai Zhi’er didn’t quite understand. Just then, a cheerful voice came from the door— "Zhi’er, your big brother is here to see you." It was the voice of Third Young Master Bai Yaoyu.
