Parker gently placed Bai Qingqing on the pile of grass and said tenderly to her, “Qingqing, I’ll go and find you some honey. Wait for me.”
“Mmmm.” Bai Qingqing was relieved that the doctor didn’t see through her lie.
After Parker left, the doctor left as well. Now, Memi and Bai Qingqing were the only ones left in the house.
Memi sat down next to Bai Qingqing and felt conflicted for a long while, before finally saying, “Since things have come to this state, I’ll tell you the way to remove the beast mark.”
“Okay,” Bai Qingqing said calmly.
“Actually, it’s very simple. Females who naturally become mates with someone realize this without being taught. Perhaps you’ve never experienced that feeling, so you have no idea.” Memi’s expression suddenly turned solemn at this point. “So long as the female no longer has any feelings towards the male, she can use a sharp knife to pierce through that animal tattoo, and the male’s scent will disappear along with the loss of blood. The beast mark will then vanish.”
“It’s that simple?” Bai Qingqing reached for the snake scale hanging from her neck and, toughening her heart, removed it and pierced her ankle with it as if she was hurting herself.
Bright red blood instantly appeared on her fair skin. Those blurry snake eyes instantly became clear as if the snake had opened its eyes.
In a forest far far away, Cortis abruptly opened his red eyes.
“Ssss—” Cortis flicked out his tongue and spread out his body, gliding in the direction guided by the beast mark.
Memi screamed, startled by Bai Qingqing’s act. Dumbfounded, she stared at Bai Qingqing and didn’t dare move. She thought to herself, Seems like Bai Qingqing really detests that snake beastman, to be so harsh on herself.
However, after a long time, the snake tattoo was still clearly visible.
Memi was initially perplexed, but she subsequently realized what was going on. She patted on Bai Qingqing’s hand and sighed with emotion. “You’re really a good female.”
Since the animal tattoo didn’t disappear, it meant that the female still had feelings towards the male. With Bai Qingqing so sentimental even towards a coldblooded homeless beast, she felt assured handing her son over to her.
“Mm?” Bai Qingqing looked at Memi, confused.
“It was my fault, I shouldn’t have let you drink the abortion medicine.” Memi lowered her head in guilt.
The speechless Bai Qingqing screamed internally, This is a huge misunderstanding!
She really wasn’t pregnant! How was she going to set the record straight?
Ah, forget it. They seem rather liberal and open-minded here, likely nobody is going to berate me or anything. If they misunderstood, so be it.
At dusk, Parker came back in his leopard form, biting a honeycomb the size of a plate in his mouth.
Bai Qingqing, lying in the pile of grass, said in a disdainful manner, “How am I going to eat it when you bit it with your mouth? That substance dripping from the honeycomb is your saliva, isn’t it?”
The honeycomb was of a golden color, and there were many white little worms in it. Streaks of a transparent substance of dubious nature could be seen, and the source of this substance seemed to be from the leopard’s mouth.
“Howl—” Parker placed the honeycomb on the pile of grass and glanced at Bai Qingqing’s left leg that was wrapped up by an animal skin, delight flashing across his eyes.
“You’ve resolved your partnership with the snake beastman?” Parker asked after transforming into a human, gazing at Bai Qingqing with bright eyes, a vibrant smile on his handsome face that was full of pustules.
“Can’t remove it.” Bai Qingqing gasped as her gaze shifted from the honey to Parker’s face. “Why did your face end up like this?”
Parker’s smile froze. Can’t remove it? Qingqing actually likes that snake beastman?
Parker’s hand pressed forcefully against the ground, feeling the blood gush through his body and an urge to kill that snake beastman.
“You eat the honey!”
Parker stuffed the honey into Bai Qingqing’s hands, then transformed into a leopard and ran out.
“Parker!” Bai Qingqing moved her sticky, honey-covered hands and mumbled. “You should apply some honey, it can help to diminish the inflammation.”
