Seeing Qiao An, who was deathly pale and practically on her last breath, the two pythons bustled about. One went to pour water while the other helped get her phone.
When Qiao An unlocked her screen, she was stumped. She had no family here, not even any close friends. At a time like this, she didn't know who to ask for help. Besides, what if someone came over and discovered Little Bai and Little Qing?
Just as Qiao An was hesitating, someone happened to call.
"Little Qiao, Uncle heard you help clean the streets during the day, so you should get off work pretty early. A relative from the countryside just happened to visit today and brought a ton of fruits and vegetables. Come get some, and help your Uncle and Auntie finish them off. We two old folks can't possibly eat it all."
Uncle Sun's rambling voice sounded a bit distant. Qiao An forced herself to shake her head, her own voice raspy and hoarse.
"Uncle Sun, today… isn't a good time for me…"
