Su Qinglan stared at him for a long moment.
Her stomach still twisted, her head dizzy, and this snake was standing there looking so proud of himself for offering her a raw leg.
If she opened her mouth now, she was afraid she might bite him for real.
No. Calm down. She needed to stay calm.
If this ancient snake knew she had violent tendencies, who knew what he'd do to her? He might decide she wasn't "fit to be a mate" and just… eat her or, worse, kill her.
No, no, no. She had to survive.
So Su Qinglan smile, breathe, and be gentle.
Su Qinglan forced a shaky smile. "I… I don't really eat meat right now," she said softly. "I prefer fruits. Lots of fruits. Because, uh… I'm carrying cubs."
Xuan Long blinked. His pupils narrowed slightly. "Carrying Cubs?"
She nodded quickly, clutching her belly like she was protecting a sacred treasure. "Yes. So I don't want meat for a while."
For a few seconds, Xuan Long just stared at her, then slowly nodded with a surprisingly serious face.
