Chapter 402: Bai Qingqing Panics

Parker placed a hand over her head and held her as they walked into a cave. “It’s raining. Let’s hide in there.”

Bai Qingqing’s heart ached as she looked into the dark cave. She nodded and replied, “Okay.”

The cave hadn’t changed much. The stone walls were still black.

“Meow meow—” The cubs in the animal skin cried out.

Bai Qingqing composed herself before unwrapping the animal skin and taking a look. “They pooped.”

“Rascals. Why are you so dirty?” Parker chided them softly as he placed them on the ground one by one.

The young leopards felt shy towards Parker as he was still like a stranger to them. They timidly glanced at his legs for a moment before turning and walking towards Bai Qingqing.

“Be gentle. You’ve scared them,” She said, chiding him. She crouched down and gently stroked the cubs’ heads.

“Males have a lot of strength. I’m already being very gentle,” Parker said aggrievedly. He dusted off the dirty animal skin and flipped it so that the soiled side was facing the ground. He then helped Bai Qingqing to sit down.

“Don’t spoil them. They’re just male cubs. It’s not like they’re female cubs. They won’t die after falling a few times.”

Bai Qingqing glared at him. Why couldn’t he be as careful as Muir?

Her expression became cold at the thought of the black eagle. She had mixed emotions.

She had said those words earlier out of spite. Now that she had calmed down, she felt that she had crossed the line.

No matter what, Muir had saved her before, and he had helped her a lot. It wasn’t like her to want to kill him.

Bai Qingqing decided that she wouldn’t do anything to Muir as long as Curtis was safe and well. However, she wouldn’t stop Curtis from taking revenge.

“Parker.”

“Mm?” Parker glanced at Bai Qingqing. He purposefully handled the cubs more gently so that she could see.

“Let’s not care about Muir. We’ll leave him to Curtis once we find him.”

“You’re too soft-hearted. But I’ve already gotten my revenge, so it doesn’t matter to me.” Parker glared at her exasperatedly before continuing, “I wish I could just lock you up at home so that you don’t see any other males. Otherwise, who knows when your heart will soften and you accept another male?”

Bai Qingqing said half-jokingly, “Okay.”

“Ah?” Parker replied in disbelief.

Bai Qingqing was too ashamed to tell him that she was really about to accept Muir.

The young leopards cried out again. Bai Qingqing already had a day’s experience of being a mom, and she immediately understood that the babies were hungry.

“Um, Parker. There’s something I need you to help me with.”

“What is it?”

Bai Qingqing’s pale face flushed as she hugged the children and stuttered, “Um… My milk won’t come out.”

Parker panicked for a moment. His eyes landed on her body as he asked curiously, “Can’t come out? Why? Then, what did the children feed on?”

He glanced at the young cubs. They seemed to have quite a bit of strength and didn’t appear to be starved.

Bai Qingqing ignored the first two questions and only answered the last one. “Muir caught a wild leopard for the children. They’ve drunk the leopard’s milk twice.”

“No wonder there was a wild leopard in the peacock village,” Parker replied in understanding. He then squeezed her breasts.

Although he had large hands, he could only barely cover Bai Qingqing’s breast with one hand in the past. Now, he couldn’t do that at all. His hand could only cover half of her breast. The feeling was different, too, as her breasts now had milk ducts in them.

“Ah.” Bai Qingqing turned away and dodged Parker’s hand. Embarrassed and angry, her face flushed even more.

“You squeezed it so hard that it hurts. My breasts are tender enough already. Why’d you use so much strength?” Bai Qingqing pouted.
