Shock
It became a huge commotion as the other diners saw the scorpion crawling on the floor.
"Eww! Disgusting!"
"How did a scorpion come here!?"
"But did you see? His wife threw it away. That means it was on his back the whole time!"
Jiang Zhen's suit was deep black upon which the black scorpion camouflaged itself and could easily climb him. Nobody noticed it.
Lihua gasped. "Jiang Hua! Are you okay?"
Jiang Hua's finger was bleeding more profusely, and she felt weak. She softly collapsed on her seat, sweating.
"I am fine…"
Ruru was frozen in his place as he watched the blood trickle down. His mother looked pale and restless. He clutched his teddy bear harder to his chest, his body shivering.
Lihua immediately noticed it and hugged his small trembling body. "Don't be afraid, Ruru. She will be fine! Your Mama is really strong! See, she caught the bad scorpion and defeated it all by herself! She saved your Dada from harm. She is awesome, right?"
