Back in the house, Su Qinglan sat on the soft hide, completely surrounded by her four youngest cubs. The little twin snow wolf girls, the nine-tailed fox cub Ciao Ciao, and the baby lion cub were all crowding tightly around her legs, yipping and tumbling as she played with them.
Right beside her on the bed sat the warm incubator.
Inside, the snake egg was rolling around restlessly, bumping against the sides as if it never wanted to stay still. It had already been more than a month since it was laid, but there was still no sign of it cracking open.
Su Qinglan had asked around and learned that it usually takes about 52 to 55 days for a snake egg to hatch. Since it was only around day 35 or 37, she was patiently waiting for her next baby to arrive.
'She will be the youngest little snake girl,' Su Qinglan thought to herself with a warm smile.
