Summary
My online boyfriend was a little strange.
He was always sending me pictures of his pet snake and asking whether he looked handsome.
I wasn’t exactly fond of snakes.
But my online boyfriend was great at games, had a lovely voice, and was generous with his money, so I often praised the snake against my better judgment.
“He’s insanely handsome!”
“This is literally the handsomest snake I’ve ever seen in my life!”
Then he would ask, “Do you like him, baby?”
I always replied in a heartbeat, “I do—so much!”
Satisfied, he sent me 52,000 yuan.
Later, I asked to meet in person.
But when I arrived at our meeting place, the only one waiting for me was that little black snake.
