Xie Ning said solemnly: "Listen to my explanation."

"I won't listen!" Echidna was so jealous that his tail was curling up, and he looked like he wanted to rush out of the underground palace immediately, grab the man and throw him to death. "Are you hiding from me for him? Ah, the pigeon flew into the cracks of the rocks, thinking that it could avoid the pursuit of the eagle, but in fact it was completely futile. In the end, the eagle still had to grab it with its claws. But the only difference between me and the eagle is that I will not be satisfied with catching a pigeon and use it as my sumptuous meal for lunch. I will destroy it like blowing away a grain of dust!"

Having said that, Echidna could not help but recall the scene when Doros first arrived: no matter where he went, the boy always wrapped the cloak tightly around himself, and even when he had better clothes later, he still cleaned the cloak and folded it neatly in the cloak room - just thinking about this, the presence of "dust" made the scales on his snake tail tremble together, rustling in dissatisfaction.

Xie Ning didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He rushed over and hugged Echidna's snake tail to prevent him from running away: "What are you thinking? I just made up an excuse at that time. It's not like I was hiding it from you... We just met at that time, so I told you briefly. I can't explain everything to you in detail."

Echidna was so angry that his teeth itched. His golden eyes were burning like two clusters of ghostly fires, poisonous and fierce. He turned around, and Xie Ning, who was hanging on his tail, also turned around. He reached out and grabbed Xie Ning's waist, but Xie Ning's two arms seemed to be glued, clinging to the snake's tail tightly.

He could be pulled off by force, but how could Echidna bear to do that? His muscles were as hard as bronze, and a soft Dolos was lying on top of him. If he was not careful, he would get hurt. Echidna held back his anger, and with his hands hanging down in hatred, he poked the ground and stopped moving.

With the situation under control temporarily, Xie Ning breathed a sigh of relief. He climbed up the snake demon's body, put his arms around his neck, and blew his warm breath affectionately into his ears.

"Why are you angry? I don't like him." Xie Ning shook him gently and said with a smile, "We have no relationship at all, not even friends. Maybe he even looks down on me a little, but he gave me his cloak out of chivalry. Otherwise, I would definitely have more scars on my body."

Echidna stood there for a long time with a stern face, not saying anything. Xie Ning did not urge him. Sure enough, after a while of silence, he asked in a rough voice, "... Why does he look down on you?"

Xie Ningxin thought that you really know how to grasp the key points, but since the matter has come to this point, he couldn't hide anything anymore. He was also afraid of adding fuel to the fire, so he reminded: "I told you not to get angry..."

Echidna didn't say anything, but his arms had already quietly supported his legs. Xie Ningquan took it as his agreement and said, "You know, when I first came through, I fell into the forest. I couldn't find a way out, so I picked up a lot of wild fruits in the forest. I was worried that they were poisonous, so I thought of putting them in my arms first and eating them when I couldn't get out of the forest. I would rather die with a full stomach..."
