"Ah..." A scream pierced the night, waking up the household.
"What's going on?"
Yang Chuxia was irritated. Lately, there had been many issues, and the management in the residence had become lax. People were not as disciplined, and now, in the middle of the night, they dared to cause such a disturbance.
"I'll go and ask." Hearing the noise, the young maid Mingqiu quickly opened the door and went out.
After thinking for a moment, Yang Chuxia and Ye Zi'an also put on their clothes and went out.
Following the direction of the commotion, they discovered the sound came from a guard woman.
"Why are you screaming at this hour?"
"Madam, I didn't mean to!" The woman was still in terror, trembling at the memory of what she had seen just moments before. "I didn't mean to. It was just too frightening."
"What on earth are you talking about? Explain clearly."
"There's a snake, a giant snake in our residence!" The woman was very agitated, her eyes bulging, "A really big snake!"
