Bai Qingqing was shocked by Muir’s reaction, and the parts where she was being grabbed were still somehow in pain. Seeing Muir’s agitated gaze, Bai Qingqing smiled and said in amusement, “Are you out of it? You’ve even dropped the bark. Quickly go wash it clean.”
“Oh.” Muir rapidly turned and picked up the bark as if he had received an order, took two steps quickly, then turned back to look at Bai Qingqing. He let out a foolish laugh, then ran into the rain.
Bai Qingqing smiled, her heart aching a little for him.
However, she kept having the feeling that there was something strange about this. There was also Curtis. Baby snakes should be able to survive in the mother’s womb for very long, right?
She wasn’t certain either and thus didn’t say it out loud. She planned on checking Curtis’s reaction first.
“Qingqing, I miss you so much.” Parker’s elation of returning home acted up again. He suddenly carried her horizontally and then took big strides toward the bedroom.
Bai Qingqing had already gotten used to such a sudden loss of balance. Her breathing only quickened for a while and then, at the next moment, she wrapped her arms around his neck habitually.
In a short one month, Parker had become a lot stronger. The softness of a young man could no longer be seen on his face, but an additional hint of sharpness of a mature man. His disposition had also become a lot more composed.
Tempering really caused one to grow.
“Parker, how many crystals did you get?” Bai Qingqing asked.
Parker reached and pulled out the animal skin bag hung around his neck.
The surface of this animal skin bag was very rough. It was thick and hard and even had traces of minced meat pieces on it. It seemed it was made after directly peeling off the hide of a behemoth.
Bai Qingqing hadn’t shown any signs of morning sickness all this while, but she suddenly felt disgusted and her stomach churned.
“Uhh!”
“Qingqing!” Parker carried her steadily in his anxiety, squatting down by the bedroom’s door and patting her back.
Thankfully, Bai Qingqing hadn’t eaten anything and didn’t vomit. After feeling better, she didn’t dare to look at that bag anymore. She said in despise, “Did you make the bag after directly peeling off the skin? It’s so dirty. Quickly take it off.”
“Oh, alright.” Only then did Parker understand that the animal skin bag he brought back had disgusted Bai Qingqing. He immediately tugged at the thin rope around his neck, snapping it, then poured all the crystals out before throwing the bag away.
It happened that the leopard cubs came at this time. They had a layer of uniform short fur on their bodies, looking like they were wearing a set of thermal wear.
They had initially felt shy after not having seen their daddy for a while, but after seeing an unidentified object flying toward them, they got excited instinctively and suddenly raised their speed and pounced on it. The three leopard cubs tore at the bag with their mouths and made muffled cries as they snatched for it.
Parker took another look at his children but still found it an unbearable sight. He turned his head away helplessly.
“There’s just a nice 100 of them.” Parker suddenly felt dejected and lowered his gaze.
“I’m still short of 100, but I can’t bear to be away from you. Moreover, they run fast. If I were to go further, I won’t be able to sense you.” As Parker said that, he buried his head into Bai Qingqing’s shoulder, taking a strong whiff of her scent. He instantly felt satisfied like a drug addict and relaxed.
“My heart felt empty. I was scared.” Parker suddenly felt admiration for Winston. How did he hold on alone in the Flame City for a month?
The fact that the proud Parker could say such weak words showed that it was really unbearable outside. Bai Qingqing patted his shoulder and said with an admiring tone, “That’s a lot. You killed 100 behemoths in just over a month. Given how you had to rest and sleep on the way and take a few days to make your way home, only half the time is left for you to kill the behemoths…”
As Bai Qingqing said that, her tone changed into a heart aching one. “You must be very tired.”
