There were also three animal stripes on his face. But this time, Bai Qingqing noticed that one of the stripes was of a very faint color and looked very unnatural.
Sizing “Parker” up, Bai Qingqing pursed her lips and forced back a burst of laughter. She pointed at his animal skin skirt and said, “You were wearing a tiger skin skirt earlier. Why did it turn into a bear skin skirt?”
“Parker” anxiously lowered his head and smacked his head in frustration. “I got it mixed up!”
With that, he fled in a state of panic and ran behind that large tree.
As Bai Qingqing had expected, after the second “Parker” left, a third “Parker” appeared.
This “Parker” wore a tiger skin skirt. Standing in front of Bai Qingqing, his quick breathing betrayed his nervousness.
Bai Qingqing covered her mouth with both hands, her eyes turning crimson as she smiled.
Must. Hold. Back. From. Laughing!
Oh shucks, can’t hold it back anymore!
Forget it, then.
“Hahahahahahahaha…” Bai Qingqing opened her mouth and burst into roaring laughter.
The third “Parker” turned around and bolted in fright.
Bai Qingqing laughed so hard she laid a hand over her stomach and rolled on the floor. Damn! They really look damn alike, it’s too hilarious!
The three cubs stood beside their mommy with confused expressions, totally baffled as to why their mommy was laughing so hard.
Bai Qingqing glanced at them. At the thought of how her own little cubs might be deceiving females to get themselves a wife this way someday in the future, all the more she couldn’t restrain her laughter.
“Hahaha… come out. I saw through all of you. There’s no need to hide anymore, hahahaha…”
Lying on the morning glory field, Bai Qingqing chortled as she uttered the words.
After a momentary silence behind the large tree, three youths bearing nearly identical appearances to Parker walked out.
Their heights, physiques, and even disposition were nearly identical. But, after all, since all of them were spouse-less, they weren’t as mature as Parker.
In fact, they reminded Bai Qingqing of Parker three years ago. The Parker of that time was truly similar to these three.
“When did you realize we weren’t him?” asked one of them.
Bai Qingqing, who finally managed to stop laughing, couldn’t resist bursting into laughter once more when she heard his voice.
“I could tell the difference when the first one spoke. Although your voices are similar, your tone and attitudes are different,” said Bai Qingqing.
No way would Parker speak to her so respectfully. Even when he was asking for help, he would do it smugly.
A look of envy appeared on their faces. “You must be very fond of him.”
One sentence and she could distinguish between them. They had wanted to emulate other males and dupe her, yet one sentence and they gave themselves away.
Bai Qingqing let out two embarrassed chuckles, then lowered her head and continued digging the morning glories.
“If you three are free, help me dig out a few.”
As Bai Qingqing spoke, she declared her stand with a resolute attitude, “But I’ll make things clear up front. I’ve told my mates that I won’t get any more partners. Since you’re Parker’s brothers, we’re considered relatives. In the future, we can get along as relatives.”
“Are you really not going to consider us? We can do a lot of chores.”
A youth with Parker’s face spoke. He rubbed his face vigorously, and an animal stripe faded. So that animal stripe was painted onto his face.
“We’re already two-striped beastmen. In the future, we’ll definitely be able to become three-striped beastmen.”
For them to earn their second stripe in their twenties, it was considered quite a great feat. They were indeed the descendants of a king beastman—none of them were weaklings.
The cubs playing by themselves would cast a look at the adults from time to time.
Bai Qingqing, still having an urge to laugh, shook her lowered head as she continued digging into the soil. “There are many females in the village. With your capabilities, you should be very popular.”
