Huo Yingjie had just set up the chessboard inside the house when he heard some noise coming from He Tiantian's side. He hurried over, pushed the door open, and saw several broken tiles at the foot of He Tiantian's bed, along with the stunned He Tiantian.
"Sweet Treasure, are you alright?" Huo Yingjie asked, rushing over. "Did anything hit you?"
He Tiantian shook her head and said, "Nothing hit me!"
Seeing that He Tiantian was fine, Huo Yingjie then looked up at the ceiling and carefully examined the floor, puzzled he asked, "How did such a big hole appear in the roof? And that circular shape is quite regular, like something smashed through it, but I can't find anything on the ground!"
In her heart, He Tiantian answered, "Actually, it wasn't something that fell from above but something that burst out from inside the house, and it hasn't come back yet."
But He Tiantian couldn't say a word of that!
The existence of the Snake King was a secret, one she could not reveal.
