“Of course,” said another person with Parker’s face.
Bai Qingqing couldn’t help glancing at him. The tone resembled Parker way too much.
“But we like you. We’ve liked you since back in the City of Beastmen. But with Parker stopping us, we hadn’t had the chance to appear in front of you.”
Bai Qingqing felt the onset of a headache. Now that her curiosity had been satisfied, how was she going to take care of this mess?
Just as she was pondering what to say, the fur on those three males’ heads suddenly exploded.
The next moment, Bai Qingqing heard a roar coming from behind.
Roar!
A golden figure leaped over her head and pounced straight at those three youths.
The youths immediately got up and scurried up a tree, chased up to a high height by the leopard.
Bai Qingqing looked up and shouted loudly, “Parker, come down and help me.”
Parker glared at them angrily. But, after all, they were his biological brothers whom he had played with for more than ten years, so he didn’t really go at them seriously. After chasing them away, Parker crawled down.
“Hmph, you weren’t duped by them, were you?” Parker peered at her body worriedly, reaching out to tug at her clothing.
Pa!
Bai Qingqing slapped his unruly hand away. “What are you looking at? Have you finished cooking?”
“Mm.” Parker continued staring worriedly at her chest.
If Qingqing had mistaken someone else for himself, the spousal mark would appear on his spot. He was very worried Qingqing was duped.
“You guys didn’t… didn’t mate, did you?”
As he spoke, it occurred to him that he could sniff her for himself. After sniffing her up and down, his expression relaxed.
Bai Qingqing rolled her eyes at him. “If I couldn’t even tell them apart from you, we would have lived together in vain all these years.”
Parker froze, and his expression turned from gloomy to sunny.
Bai Qingqing nudged him with her elbow and said, “Quick, help me dig out the morning glories. I’m thinking of growing them in our courtyard.”
“Okay.”
Parker transformed into a leopard and started digging into the ground excitedly, causing the soil to fly about in the air and onto her face.
Bai Qingqing spat out the soil in her mouth and quickly said, “Hey! Be careful not to destroy the roots!”
Parker turned his head sideways and licked her on the forehead twice, then proceeded to dig more cautiously.
The cubs, too, came over to help. In the end, they each manage to dig out a very complete morning glory vine.
The family of five returned home with the ten-odd morning glory vines.
After eating, Bai Qingqing laid in her nest with her kids and took a nap.
Parker found Bai Qingqing’s small mirror and checked out his reflection for a good while, before turning his head sideways towards Curtis.
“Hey Snake, help me shave my fur.”
Curtis threw a lazy gaze in his direction.
“Those brothers of mine pretended to be me to dupe Qingqing. Thankfully, she wasn’t deceived by their act.”
Gaze flickering, Curtis’s vision turned to Bai Qingqing.
Parker smoothed out the fur on his head and urged, “My hair is growing longer. Very soon my hair will look like them. Quick, help me shave off the excess fur.”
Curtis finally loosened his coils and slithered up behind him.
When Bai Qingqing woke up, she was greeted by the sight of a bald nape.
Speechless, she blinked hard to make sure she wasn’t seeing things. And then, her mouth twitched.
Parker’s hair had finally grown out. Why did he shave it off again?
Howl~
Parker stretched lazily and flipped around to face her, resting a leg over her in a natural manner.
Bai Qingqing held a hand to her forehead. “What happened to your hair?”
Parker howled and transformed into a human. “My fur has grown out, so I asked Curtis to help me shave it.”
