Bai Qingqing smoothed the leopard cubs’ fur so that they could be better dried by the fire. She then reached out for the little snake.
“Come over and take a seat. The fire won’t be darting about anymore.” Bai Qingqing coaxed softly.
The little snake walked over to her side hesitantly, sitting next to her.
Sensing the fire’s temperature, the little snake moved behind Bai Qingqing, his pair of long and skinny arms tightly circling around her waist, behaving very close to her.
Bai Qingqing patted his back, her heart aching for him. Only then did she get the feeling that the little snake was her child.
The leopard cubs felt unhappy. They imitated the little snake and went to hug their mommy’s legs. Bai Qingqing suddenly had two extra big accessories hanging on her legs.
There was another one who didn’t manage to grab onto her leg. He hung onto her arm instead.
Bai Qingqing was caught between laughter and tears as she shook her body. “What are you guys doing? Come down quickly and dry your fur.”
The leopard cubs didn’t move and were bent on hugging her.
Bai Qingqing felt helpless. Since she couldn’t get them off her, she let them be.
…
The rain poured down, a patch of wild weed at the ground tugged off and became muddy. One would get a lot of mud onto themselves when they sat down.
The three guys held bags and scattered the wheat grains into the muddy ground, making a hole with each step taken.
“The rain has gotten heavier.”
Parker looked up at the sky, his mind full of his mate at home.
Qingqing could only stay at home to play now. She must be feeling very bored.
“Winston, if there’s anything you want to say, say it quickly,” Parker said impatiently.
Curtis also looked toward him.
Winston continued to scatter the wheat grains and said, “Females’ bodies are too weak. If we didn’t take care of her properly and something were to happen…”
Before he finished his words, he felt the fury from Parker and Curtis.
“What are you talking about? I’ll definitely be able to take care of Qingqing!” Parker’s eyes had turned red, and he clenched the wheat grains tightly, releasing cracking sounds.
Curtis’s eyes also emitted a ferocious glow, but he couldn’t help but recall the dream that Bai Qingqing mentioned.
The male in his dream was too much like him. He almost took the same path as he did.
In fact, he agreed to all the things that the scorpion beastman had done. He himself had almost done the same.
He should be thankful for that damned eagle beastman. If the eagle beastman hadn’t snatched Snow from his hands, he wouldn’t have the chance to change either, and his Snow wouldn’t have been able to live until today.
His legacy told him that it was very hard for females to live on, and young snakes were all born in the same year a couple had become mates.
As for the future, there were either no traces or the young snakes’ eyes would be the ones recording the females’ death.
Curtis knew that females were very fragile, but after having lived with Bai Qingqing for a few years, he realized that females’ lives were a lot weaker than he imagined.
If he had used his old methods to take care of her, he’d probably go down the same path as his ancestors, doing what that scorpion beastman had done in the dream.
Winston immediately explained, “I’m thinking that if one died and their soul still exists, then we’d still be able to find Qingqing if she were to encounter a misfortune one day. We might even…”
Curtis and Parker weren’t stupid and immediately understood. Both of them abruptly stopped their work.
“Revive her!” Curtis suddenly continued.
Winston and Parker exchanged a glance, and Winston nodded, saying, “That’s right. That’s what I’m thinking.”
Winston was different from them. He wasn’t good at communicating his emotions. To get his mate’s affirmation, he could only contribute quietly, waiting for his mate to discover his intentions.
When he encountered situations, he didn’t just think about how to resolve them, but he also planned for the future. Therefore, he was the first to think of this point.
Parker anxiously looked around.
Winston said, “Don’t worry, there’s no one else here.”
