Beauty and the Beasts - Chapter 761
Chapter 761: The Secret Behind Parker’s Tail
Bai Qingqing got Parker to help tear the tree bark into two long rectangular pieces each half a meter long and thirty centimeters wide. She then tied the pieces of bark to her feet.
The two large pieces of bark underneath her feet increased their area of contact with the snow, causing her to sink significantly less in the snow.
Bai Qingqing leaned on the two crutches and waddled like Donald Duck, leaving behind drag marks in the snow as she walked.
“Hahaha… do you guys want to try? It’s very fun,” Bai Qingqing turned back and asked with a laugh.
The leopard cubs walked very slowly to accommodate her speed. Their small, short limbs created deep holes in the snow, such that one could only see their round bodies standing on the ground.
Howl~
The leopard cubs walked clumsily yet determinedly.
Bai Qingqing laughed even harder after looking at them.
“Parker, tear that piece of bark that well. We’ll drag the cubs along.” Bai Qingqing smiled.
“Okay.”
Unlike the cubs, Parker could walk naturally as his legs were long and the snow only reached the middle of his thighs.
He then picked up speed such that the snow no longer covered his legs. He effortlessly flew across the snow, not leaving behind a single footprint.
With a hand and a foot on the tree trunk, he cleanly tore off the bark. When he landed on the ground, he folded it before returning. His movements weren’t stiff and awkward like the cub’s.
Bai Qingqing held her breath in astonishment. That was amazing!
She felt as if she had just walked into the set of a wuxia[1] drama. Did Parker perform qinggong[2] just now?
Parker tore off a vine on the way back, gradually slowing down and becoming shorter as he neared her. When he stopped beside her, most of his long legs were covered in snow.
He was confused upon noticing the admiration in Bai Qingqing’s eyes. Wasn’t it normal to run on snow? It wasn’t like he was a regular beast.
His confusion didn’t stop him from feeling joy. He vigorously swung his tail and asked, “Did I run really fast?”
“Yes!” Bai Qingqing nodded eagerly.
Parker swung his tail even harder such that it created a rustling gust of wind.
At this moment, Bai Qingqing was slightly taller than him as she stood on the tree bark. She secretly enjoyed this perspective.
Parker lowered his head and made a hole in the piece of bark he just tore, about to thread the vine through it.
Bai Qingqing noticed Parker’s long and thick golden tail swinging about wildly. Curious, she pounced on him and grabbed it.
“Roar!”
The fur on Parker’s tail stood up, and he quickly moved backward, leaving two deep lines in the snow.
Qingqing, you-!” Parker’s face quickly heated up, although his tan skin made it inconspicuous.
Bai Qingqing grinned and said, “Your tail’s so warm.”
Whiskers suddenly appeared on Parker’s face, and his tail twitched. Bai Qingqing squeezed it even harder, causing him to nearly lose control and transform into his beast form.
“I told you not to squeeze my tail!” Parker growled lowly.
“Why?” Bai Qingqing asked confusedly. She realized this change in Parker’s behavior last year. After she squeezed his tail that time, the atmosphere suddenly became tense, and he said that they had to mate since she was pregnant with a female child.
Upon recalling all of this, she couldn’t help but glance towards Parker’s animal skin skirt. Her eyes widened.
The skirt looked like a very tall tent that was held up by a tree branch.
“You…” Bai Qingqing’s face instantly flushed.
Wait. Don’t tell me this is Parker’s erogenous zone?
Parker looked around and his eyes lit up. “You’re done with your confinement, so we can mate now!”
