Chapter 34: Xiao Hua was Stolen
The teacher quickly rushed to the classroom.
She had already seen the tiger before, so she wasn’t surprised to hear that Xie Chaochao was playing with snakes.
“Chaochao, Xiao Mei said that you brought a snake into the classroom, is that so?”
Xie Chaochao nodded innocently. “Yes, I didn’t want to be separated from Xiao Hua, so I brought Xiao Hua here when Daddy wasn’t paying attention!”
Xie Chaochao took Xiao Hua out from her pocket and placed it on the table.
The teacher felt that she knew what Xiao Hua was!
It was a snake!
The teacher felt her heart begin to race again.
“Chaochao, the students in the class are afraid of Xiao Hua. Can we bring her out?”
Xie Chaochao glanced at the students who were hiding far away and obediently brought Xiao Hua out.
The teacher didn’t dare to go near Xie Chaochao. There were few girls who weren’t afraid of snakes.
“Chaochao, I’ll find something for you. Put Xiao Hua inside and let me take care of it. When it’s time for you to go home, I’ll give Xiao Hua back to you, okay?”
Xie Chaochao pursed her lips, and was unwilling. “Teacher, Xiao Hua really doesn’t bite. Let me bring it along with me!”
“I used bring Xiao Hua, Xiao Hu and the rest to school!”
When the teacher saw the little girl’s sad expression, she felt a little sorry.
However, if she were to agree to Xie Chaochao’s request, none of the class’ students would dare to enter the class.
“Well, how about this? I’ll find you a bottle and you can leave Xiao Hua outside the classroom until after class. You can see Xiao Hua then. Do you think that’s okay?”
Xie Chaochao agreed. The teacher found a transparent glass bottle for her and placed it on the windowsill outside the classroom.
Xie Chaochao happened to be sitting near the window. She could see Xiao Hua just by turning her head.
The little girl was finally satisfied.
Within an hour, the entire school knew that someone in seventh grade had raised a snake and brought it to the classroom.
It was another class break. Many students gathered at a seventh grade classroom.
They were all surrounding the window where the little flower snake was.
Xiao Hua was placed in a glass bottle. Paper was glued to the mouth of the bottle and there were a few holes left on it to let the snake breathe.
Xie Chaochao was about to go play with Xiao Hua when she saw someone running away with the bottle Xiao Hua was placed in.
Xiao Hua was inside and couldn’t come out. That person wasn’t afraid either.
Xie Chaochao was worried about Xiao Hua. She immediately called Little Fatty to chase after that person.
“Stop! Return Xiao Hua to me!”
The boy holding Xiao Hua was a senior student in first grade. He ran in front and even turned his face to give Xie Chaochao a sneaky look.
Xie Chaochao became even angrier. She felt for a knife in her pocket.
In the end, she did not take it out.
Her father did not allow her to play with knives, much less point it at others.
Xie Chaochao chased after him for a long time, but she couldn’t catch up with him. Little Fatty was so tired that he was panting heavily.
“Chaochao, let’s tell the teacher that someone stole Xiao Hua! Let the teacher punish him!”
Xie Chaochao stood still and stared at the boy in front of her with red eyes, not saying a word.
Seeing this, the boy stopped in front and even waved the glass bottle at Xie Chaochao.
“Wah… Boohoo…”
Xie Chaochao suddenly burst into tears, and the smile on the boy’s face froze.
The other students in the school were also stunned.
The boy walked over to Xie Chaochao and raised the glass bottle in front of her with a helpless expression.
“Stop crying. I’ll return it to you. Can you stop crying?”
Xie Chaochao hugged the glass bottle, but she didn’t stop crying.
“Hey, I’ve already given it to you. Can you stop crying?”
The boy was at a loss and anxious.
Xie Chaochao tore the paper off the bottle and aimed it at the boy.
“Xiao Hua, wrap yourself around him!”
Although the little boy’s reaction wasn’t slow, he was still a step too late. Xiao Hua rushed onto his body and quickly wrapped itself around his neck.
The boy could no longer laugh. His face turned pale.
He only dared to take the glass bottle because it was sealed.
“Ah, make it go away, make it go away!”
The little boy raised his hands, wanting to pull the snake off, but he didn’t dare to do it. He could only seek help from Xie Chaochao.
There were still tears on Xie Chaochao’s face, but she smiled. “Serves you right for stealing Xiao Hua! Let’s see if you still dare to do it in the future!”
The boy did not dare to move at all. He immediately said, “I won’t dare to do it again. I won’t dare to do it again. Quickly make it come down!”
Xie Chaochao finally relented. “Xiao Hua, come here!”
The little flower snake which was wrapped around the little boy followed Xie Chaochao’s outstretched arm and climbed up to her neck, wrapping itself around it obediently.
The little boy fell to the ground with a look of fear.
Xie Chaochao and Little Fatty returned. Wherever they went, everyone retreated in fear.
Very soon, the teacher heard about what had happened during the class break. Xie Chaochao couldn’t be blamed for this either. She had already agreed to seal the snake in a glass bottle. It was the boy who had stirred up trouble and got himself frightened.
In the end, Xie Chaochao and the boy could only apologize to each other and let this matter pass.
After this incident, Xie Chaochao placed the snake outside the classroom window, and no one dared to touch it again.
