"What in the world? Do you have any sense of decency left?" I was utterly flabbergasted, how could Liu Hongluan even say such nonsense??

Qing Li was also intrigued, bending down to pick up Xiao Xin Tang and hold her in his arms. "Oh??"

Even Chang Hao, who once suspected me of cheating on Yu Longting, showed a baffled yet impressed expression.

The snake attendants present widened their eyes, looking between Liu Hongluan and the ice-cold Dumpling in my arms.

They seemed to be trying to find a resemblance between Dumpling and Liu Hongluan...

I was at a loss for words, could the other snakes really believe the nonsense Liu Hongluan was spouting??

Claiming her child was taken and placed in my belly, wasn’t this similar to what she almost did to me before?

If Yu Longting hadn’t appeared in time, Little Dumpling would have been snatched away by this Snake Lady!

And now, I, the victim, am being falsely accused??

Is there no justice!

"Dragon Queen, please see clearly, I am indeed the birth mother of the Snake Lord’s son." Liu Hongluan twisted the facts, yet spoke with absolute conviction, "You see, Su Wan has always wanted to kill me, just to silence me and prevent me from reuniting with my child."

Little Dumpling’s gaze grew even colder.

Like the permafrost of the polar ice caps, showing no reaction to Liu Hongluan’s words.

"Dumpling, is Liu Hongluan your mother?" Qing Li asked leisurely.

Dumpling shook his head vigorously, full of disdain.

Liu Hongluan’s tone turned pitiful, "He was taken away by Su Wan at a very young age, so my child doesn’t even know that I’m the real birth mother."

"There is some logic to that." Qing Li, unsure of his intentions, wore a skeptical expression and even asked for Dumpling’s opinion at the end, "Dumpling, what do you think?"

"Ugly!" Dumpling blurted out with just one word.

The implication was that Liu Hongluan was too ugly to attract his father, much less to give birth to such an adorable baby as him? 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

It was too humorous and amusing, such a sharp tongue at such a young age.

The other snakes probably didn’t understand the meaning behind the word "ugly," while Qing Li, full of charisma, hid her smile behind her hand for quite a while, clearly understanding her grandson’s meaning.

Even when Dumpling was a baby and only spoke baby babble, Qing Li was the only one who could understand him.

So this was nothing special.

"Liu Hongluan, my grandson thinks you’re ugly; whether you’re his birth mother is still up for debate. You can temporarily stay with me." Qing Li finally stopped laughing and said to Liu Hongluan.

I was speechless, waving a hand to dispel the heavenly fire.

With my understanding of Qing Li’s intelligence, she couldn’t possibly believe such nonsense.

Maybe she was unwilling to give up and wanted to keep Liu Hongluan around to slowly torment her, just be careful not to play too far.

Since Liu Hongluan was rescued by Qing Li, Qing Li made a paper body for Liu Hongluan to use.

The beauty on the paper bore a resemblance to what Liu Hongluan looked like before, and with Liu Hongluan possessing it, you couldn’t tell it was a paper man unless you looked closely.

During the three days in the Snake Sect, Qing Li spent half the time with Dumpling, and the other half, Little Dumpling would run over to stick with me.

However, rumors were spreading like wildfire within the Snake Sect, with many snakes discussing the densely packed red scales on Dumpling’s neck.

But most of the snake species still believed that Dumpling was born by me, after all, they believed in Yu Longting’s taste, and Yu Longting’s loyalty to his emotions.

"Lady of the Snake Lord, Beichen has brought an outsider here, requesting an audience at the mountain gate. That person looks strange, and I dare not make a decision on my own, so I came to seek your guidance." That noon, Chang Hao suddenly came to my door seeking an audience.
